Things TO be Remembered.

.e: When you hear whig saying that the
reduction of the tariff of '42, by the demo
Gratis, is calculated to put our laborers on o
level with the 'pauper laborers Of Europe
remember that they were rich whig manu-
facturers Of New England who imported
female laborers from the British Provinces
because they would work at much cheaper
rates than would the Yankee girls. Re
member this, and remind the whig grumblel
Of the fact.
When you hear whig praising higi
protective tariff and paper currency il
the same breath, remember that the success
of the last is necessarily the death of the
first and remind the deluded mortal OF nus
inconsistency. Show him that 'protection'
and currency like ours are incomPatlole'
from which it will follow that the wings, oy
lupholding the latter. are the worst enemies
of the former. i.i. ]. W.

the effect Of a tariff is to reduce The Prsce
Of articles which it highly taxes, remember

PRESIDENTIAL HyMoR.-At the Presi-
dents levee, few evening since. Col.
Morse, who had just returned from din
ner party, paid his respects to the Presi-
dent in his usual open, bland, and rather
Western manner, and inquired of his ex.
cellency, ''the news of the day." The
President, with whom Mr.. Morse is grea
favorite good.naturedly remarked that she
had nothing particular, save that he hae
been called upon by Mr.. Pakenham wht
had formally and automatically presentet
bin an autographic letter from Her Ma
jesty, Queen Victoria, announcing ths
birth Of her fifth child" The honorable
Mr.. Morse, with d face as grave as Father
Miller, and voice equally stentorian
made the very significant inquiry, ''wher
does your Excellency intend to reciprocat'
the compliment" The reply Of the Pres
ident was, she did not know as he wa

"Know, lad," said the delighted old man,
'syou have brought me the best years trade

beat Capt. Sublette."
81 am much gratifed, sir, that | have
been instrumental in serving you.''
"That is very well," said the trader,
pushing up his spectacles, "but tell me why
you, generally so slow and cold, should
suddenly do so much for me?"
"It was the first opportunity had of do
ing what others would not do"
ado you expect no share in the great
advantage of last nights adventures9"
''That leave to you, SIR"
"Now, Mr.. Ray, wish you to be tho
roughly frank. You must have had some
motive in thus suddenly risking your life
for me: what is it? You have doubled my
fortune, let me do you some service in re-
turn" @ ~ .as ,s|. .~.4f..
Ray saw that the worthy merchant was
still in the dark, and smiling said, "My am
bition has been to share your good fortune,
and did my hopes equal my wishes might
say had hoped one day to possess oil you
now hold" ss = 7E#,z 81.
"What--a partner? The idea is bold
one, but after what you have done, | see
no insuperable bar to it,
"Sir," said Ray, hurriedly, 81 am con-
tent to be your clerk, ifyou will, all my
life; but you have daughter-''
"Whew! cried the astonished merchant,
"sits the wind in that quarter! And pray,
sir, does she know Of this?"
@"You recollect a long journey when we
were inseparable companions"
aOh, ! recollect all; but, pray, does my
ldaughteEeneourage you2n 4

exclaimed Mary, who, at that moment en-
tered; 81 did encourage him, for thought
him worthy oft. OF late, Mr.. Ray almost
discouraged my resolution, but his late de-
votion to your interest convinced me that
it was the same Edward Ray had travel
led with from New Orleans"
"And so," said the trader, pettishly, "you
have arranged it all, it seems, and | am to
have no voice in the matter"
"We arranged nothing dear father, but
leave it all to you." ,t
1t will readily be believed that Edward
Ray and Mary Mcpherson had no great
difficulty in arranging the matter with the
good Scotchman. In a few weeks. Ray

kan, and | believe none ofthe parties have

Fit wife for q Roman
A spirit uncommon, -, ~.
A thing from above.
No caution or caring
No doubling, despairing.
Could keep her from daring
The labor of love.
When the hot sun was shining,
Her poor mate was pining,
On his lone couch reclining
By night and by day.
When she heard ii, no danger
Could check or could change her;
To the land of the stranger
She fastened away.
She crossed the dark billow,
To cit by his pillow
To soothe and to mellow
His anguish and pain
To pour out his potion
To share his emotion
To prove her devotion,
Again and again.
Who would not be Jealous

When her heart has been given,
On this side of heaven,

But clings until death.
