We notice in the article of our last weeks
paper typographical error which may be CON
si1ered, what the lawyers call u I'm ltcrial var
alton" Itoccurs in the interesting and lumin-
Gus correspondence between the Second Auditor
in the Treasury Department, and Captain Tobin
ofthc Louisiana Volunteers. Captain Tobin, in
llmcnting his inbility to sustain the response
bility for some two or three thousand dollars,
which the Department had charged against
him on its books, remarked very Significantly
that he sis not worth Continental di,ae" Our
compostor varies the expression TO "Continent-
al damn = and as it is an error which affects
both Captain Tobin, and ourselves. we hasten to
make the correction. Our version of the thing
is unjust TO the Captain in two respects i'm
the first place he would not have used such
language TO a high Government Functionary
whose Master has acquired some reputation foI
entertaining the opinion that the Sabbath is a
very useful institution and in the sccont
place the Captains readers get a much better
idea of his poverty from what he really did say

Progress of the Sentinel in $. Early News"

Our WORTHY ncghbor has no stomach for news
It's readers tea-spoon-full Of intelligence from
the recent ELECToYs and pail-lull of news
from Texas and the War. Another of It's spo-
c,al-proyidence friends arrived in Burlington the
week past in time to bring tia y. Y. Erpress
ten hours in advance Of the mail Ofcourse.
Any ablc-bodicd traveller, who takes the ord-
nary Canal boat and stage conyevanccs. can
reach given point n '4da ten hours before the
" Government Express a man cant help get
nr ahead of the mail uncss he breaks his lcr,
or oycr-slccps a stage or two!
But the Sentinel finds nothing comfortable in
its N. Y. Express Of Tuesday evening" except
the blood and thunder Of Monterey. Tie latest
news of the important elections in Ono, Penn
sYLyASA, FLORIDA, &c. don't appear to have
caught its eye! Is not this something of an
oversight in our recently awakened Rip Van
Wrinkle, who invokcs ALI to take a paper
which affords the news at the earliest possible
moment p
But we suppose we must let our amiable friend
go his length on Mexico, We are quite
satisfied with the exchange of PEyvsyLvAxG,
and ONO for Ttras. And when we get New
York, in November, the .Seniincrs peculiar in.
sti,uton friends viii have to use extra diligence
in the patent process Of annexation or VIC
+ shall get ahead of them
The Sentinel, as usual when it gets elated, in
dulgcs in little harmless extravaganza. Il
copies long details from the Express, which the
Express had previously copied from the n o
| ID tia, and calls them interesting details mhicl
hare not yet appeared in prim"' A sorry com
Pment to the Express and Delta-but oe some
times think the Sentinel is about the only print
there is in the world.

Corn Law Rhymes.

We verify believe that the great radical move

TEN, has had more powerful aid from the pen of
the Poet, than from the head and voice of the
Statesman, or even from the desperate and des-

have achieved now towards the political and
moral redemption and restoration of abused hui

of the abominable and intensely artificial sys-

of the English people to remedies want and

LABOR'S THANKSGIVING HYMN.
BY MARY HOWITT.

That must work thank thee, God
know that hardship, toll and pain,
Like rigorous winter IN the sod
Whirh doth mature the hardy grain,
Call forth in Man his noblest powers -
Therefore, hold my head erect,
And, amid li;cs severcst hours
Stand steadlast III my seli-respect
thank thee, God, that | must toll
lon ennlned slave Of lineage high,
The gaine-law lord who owns the soil,
Is not so free a man AZ
lie wears the letters of his clan:
Wealth, birth, and rank have hedged him in
IhceI but this, that am MAN,
And to the great IN mind akin
Thank God, that like the mountain oak
My lot is with the storms Of HE;
Strength grows from cut the tempests shock;
AMI patience in the daily STRIFE
The horny hand the furowed brow.
Degrade not howe'er sloth may deem;
lis TINS drgrades--to cringe and bow,
And ape the vice we disesteem
Thank God for toll, for hardship, whence
Come couraIt, patience, hardlhuod,
And tor TINT sad experience
Which leave, our bosons flesh and blood:
Which leaves Us tears Tor others woe
Brother in toll, respect myself;
And let thy st'adiast virtue show
That man is nobcr far than pcli,
Thank God for toll nor fear the face
OF wealth nor rank fear only sin.
That blight which mars all outward grace,
And dims the light of peace within
Give me thy hand, my brother, give
Thy hard and tolI-sniucd hand TO me;
We are not dreameis, we shall live
\ brighter, better cay to see.
