THOUGHTS ON LEAVING A Ma
TIVE PLACE.

Scenes Of JOY, of transient pleasure,
The hour draws nigh when we must part,
But ah how fondly viii treasure,
Thine image stamped upon my heart
Dear - in my breast,
For thee affections fame will burn,
Whilst hope within this soul shall rest,
Or thought be stored in memory's urn.
Thou, whose parental fostering care,
Hast e'er TO me been kind and true,
For thee, III drop silent tear,
Then bid thy shades long adicu
Farewell TO those whose sacred call.
Has been the guidance of my youth,
May heaven grant TO each, to all,
lis brightest blessings, and its truth
And if on earth we meet no more,
But bound by fate's decree to sever,
May we upon that blissful shore,
Meet, but TO part no more forever.
Associates, friends, for each of you,
| have deep. a lengthening sigh,
A heart-that cannot prove untrue,
A feeling that can never die.
The hottest impulse that e'er fills.
An Angels bosom round the throne,
Is not more deep than that which thrills,
Intensely thrills throughout my own.
A last farewell, around my heart,
The clouds of life may break and sever,
Yet will thy memory not depart,
Though should leave thee now foreve7.

at is well known TO the American people
and to all nations, that this Government has
never interfered with the relations subssting
between other Governments. We have never
made ourselves parties 10 their wars or their
alliances; we have not sought their territories
by conquest; we have not mingled with parties
in their domestic struggles and believing our
own form of government to be the best, we
have never attempted to propagate it by diplo-
macy, or by force. Wemay claim on this con-
tnent like exemption from European inter
ference, The nations of America are equally
sovereign and independent with those of Eu-
rope. They possess the same rights, indie
pendent of all foreign interposlton, to make
war, to conclude peace. and TO regulate
their internal affairs. The people Of the
United States cannot, therefore, view with
indifference attempts of European Powers to

The Next August Election

Will be one of the most important held in this
county, far It's interests and political char
acter are concerned. The people therefore should
take action in relation to the nomination of
ddates at early day. As yet nothing has been
done, except the busy wire-working and intriguing
of the Bank clique. This clique. informed by
rumor have already pitched upon few persons, chiefly
bank directors, out of which number they intend to
have three of the four candidates for the General
Assembly which the county is entitled selected The
question is whether the people will rdty and sanction
their management, or whether they will take their
own business into their own hands On the decision oil
this question and the adoption of an honest policy in
the nominations depends the continued success
total defeat of the democratic party in this county
and perhaps the democratic ascendancy in the next
Legislature. The people therefore will do well tc
look to the matter in season.

A Prediction.

A few years ago, Senator Benton, in one of his
speeches, made the following prediction:
81 That man is now living with beard on his face
(tbough 1t may not be ID who will yet see Amer-
army in Ireland, and American General in the
the streets of London"
This thought by many TO be little ,ria at the
time, and SO were the following comments, which
made upon it by the New Orleans Courier but
the time may not be far distant when we shall witness
the realization of the prediction of Benton, and learn
the business of the conclusions of the Courier.
The next war between the old mother and her CT
derant-now gantess-dauehter will in all probabl-
ity see this prophecy fulfilled and prove it to be no
empty boast. That war-and come it must-wIll be
o war of principle, of republican right against Brit
ish whig and tory falsehood; will be struggle of
the right divine" TO govern wrong, and forever
crush the vox populi, which even now speaks in
Great Britain with portcntous meaning. The hith-
crto victorious chief and representative of the British
oligarchy. has declared that they must wage big
war, in oil future conflicts; shall, therefore, be
compelled to put forth all our strength and meet force
to force and while our euemy-the arch enemy of
| the rights of man-vainly endeavors to light the
torch of discord and of ruin on sacred spil we
shall plant the tree of liberty theirs They will
find the tables turned upon them for while invad-
ing army would be met in these United States with
bayonets, bullets bales, blunderbusseS, guns and
thunder and every inch IT earth (as well as water,
salt and fresh) be disputed by invncibe men-men
who know their rights, and knowing dare maintain
them at the time, shall let loose the justly
disrontented spirits of our crafty enemy upon their
oppressors who now grind them TO the DUST and long
for such opportunity to place themselves in the po-
sition for which nature intended them. Col Benton
then made no idle boast but on the contrary, spoke
as becomes his reputation far seeing statesman.
An American army would be received in the British
Islands as deverers and brothers, by millions of her
majesty's loring subjects, whose masters would in
daring, for the third time to hosttes against
Republican America, find the last effort of expiring
| tyranny.

ANDREW KENNEDY.-The Wing papers of this
State, under the influence of that lllberal feeling
common to ignorant and vulgar minds which can sec
no merit in political opponent, are sneering as well
they able, at the late commendatory Eotces
of Mr.. Kennedy We should like to know what
thse papers will say to the following notice of Mr..
Kennedy, by the Washington correspondent of the
Baltimore Patriot, one Of the most uncompromising
Whig papers of the Eastl There is not word of
fattery in this notice. but nevertheless it accords
high praise to the subject, as we understand it:
s. ANDREW kENNEDY's speech, yesterday was
rough, uncouh and unpolished but it had wit and
good cart-horsc sense in it. KENNEDY is to at
tract and amuse the House and the Galleries when
ever he makes speech. His manner is warm and
enthusiastic. His face becomes inflamed and his
eyes sparkle in unison with his words-now with
scorn, Indignation and contempt! and anon with
mirth, fun and iollity He is evidently man who
has studied but little in books but has been ertraord
narily endoued By nature. finished education
would have either spoiled or made great man of
him. {"
