The spirit of democracy. [volume] (Woodsfield, Ohio) 1844-1994, 1848-03-04

How consoling to the mind oppress-H.
ed BY every sorrow is the voice Of an
amiable woman. Like sacred music,
it imparts TO the soul a feeling of celes-y
tial serenity, and as gentle zephyrs, res
freshes the wearied senses with its soft
and m%elliiuous tones. Riches may
avail much in the hour Of affection; the,
friendship of man may alleviate for b.
time the bitterness of woe, but The angelas
voice of woman is capable ofproducing
a lasting effect on the heart, and COM
municates a sensation of delicious COM
posture which the mind had never be- ,
fore experienced, even in the momentsii
Of its highest felicity. 9h .sSii

The following passage from Ban
%crolt's history is quoted by a London
paper as a good specimen Of the histo-
rian's style, which is characterized by
terms Of high commentator. To the
American reader it will possess an adj
ditional charm. For it presents the
youthful picture Of man at whose name
the American heart throbs-a name
which acquires, as years roll on,a place
more and more profound in the affec-
tons and re verence Of the American
people: u
"After long years Of strife, of repose,
and Of strife renewed, England and
France solemnly agreed to be at peace.
The treaties Of Aix.la-C hapelle had been
negotiated by the ablest statesmen OF
Europe, in the splendid form Of monar-
chical diplomacy. They believed them
selves the arbiters Of mankind, the pa
cifcators Of the world--reconstructing
the Colonial system on a basis which
should endure for ages-conffming the
Peace of Europe by the nice adjust
ment OF material forces. At the very
time Of the Congress of Aix-la-C hapelles
the woods Of Virginia sheltered the
youthful Geo. Washington, the son Of
a widow. Born by the side Of the Pc.
tomac, beneath the roof Of a West:
moreland farmer, almost from infancy
his lot had been the lot of an orphan:
No Academy had welcomed him to its
shades, no College crowned him with
its honors! TO read, TO write, to CIPHER
these had been his degrees in knowl-
edge. IA ..1,s..1a,
And now, at sixteen years of age,i in
quest of an honest m~aintenance; en-
countering intolerable toll; cheered on
ward by being able to write to a school.

no plate but a large chip; roaming over
spurs of the Alleghenies, and along the.
banks of the Shenandoah; alive to Ma.

of the day in admiring the trees, and
the richness of the land;" among the
skin-clad savages, with their scalps and

yer would speak English;" rarely Sleep

the night upon a little hay, straw or,
fodder; and often camping in the ~forsst,'
where the place nearest the fire was a.
happy luxury-this STRIPPING surveyor
in the woods, with no companions but
his unlettered associates, and no imple-
ments of science but his. compass and
chain, contrasted strangely with the.
imperial magnifcence Of the Congress
of Aixla-ChaPelle. And yet God has
selected, not Kanuitz, nor NEWCASTLE
not a monarch Of the House of Haps-S
