To the depths of the oceans caves,

A tone of music that ne'er was caught
A word that was ne'er~ expressed.

Where the fountains of sunlight play
Where the cHrtain of gold and opal falls
Der the scenes Of the dying day.
With a glance 1 cleave the sky in twain,

When fall the boding drops of rain,
Through the darkly curtained air,
The rock-built towers, the turrets grey,
The piles of a thousand years,
Have not the strength of pottcr's clay,
Before my gliitering spears.
From the Alps or the Andes highest crag
From the peaks Of eternal snow,
The dazzling folds of my fiery flag,
Clean DER the world below;
The earthquake heralds my coming power
The avalanche bounds away,
And the bowling storms, at midnigh,hour
Proclaim my kingly sway.
Ye treuble when my legions GOMEZ
When my quivering sword leaps out
Der the hills that echo my thunJer-drum,
And rend, with my joyous shout;
Ye quail on the land or upon the seas,
Ye stand IN your fear aghast,
To see me burn the stalwart trees,
Or shiver the stately mast.
The hierogIyphs on the Persian wall,
The letters of high command,
Where the prophet read the tyrant's fall,
Were traced with my burning hand;
And oft in fire have I wrote since then,
What angry heaven decreed---
But the sealed eyes of sinful men
Were all too blind TO read.
At last the hour Of light is here.
And kings no more shall blind,
Nor the bigOts crush with craven fear,
The forward march of mind;
The words Of truth, and freedoms rays,
Are from my pinions hurl',
And soon the sun Of better days
Shall rise uponthe world.
But away. away, through the sightless air.

For I would not soil my sandals fair,

Wing prints should so much cavil at this por-
ton of the message. 1t bears the force of an
axiom and all that can be said, if it is noticed
at all, is that it is misplaced. The fallacy Of
which objection the Union has we'll exposed.
No part of the message has given us more
qualification than that relating 10 the Indepen-
dent Treasury. Its beneficial effects, in time
of peace, in preserving us from the ruinous
issue and contraction of Bank paper, has been
tested by the severest commercial disasters and
political turmoils which the European world
has ever suffered, and by war conducted by
ourselves in the midst of distracted world.
Notwithstanding the ruin which fell in quick
succession upon the largest commercial firms
OF England, and French, Irish, and European
revolution, the growing prosperity of our trade
and commerce has continued unabated' ana
will so continue, if the wholesome restraints
of the Treasury law are preserved.
What American can look upon the proud
nosition Of his country at this moment without
pride and gratitude; Great in its past histo-
rv-ereat in its present prosperity-and yet
greater in the cheering hopes of grand and
nprivaIIed future. Honor 10 the President
Honor to the Cabinet, who have contributed
so much of honor and glory TO our beloved
America
