their sleep at the sound of its melancholy
voice, murmured hasty prayer others
slept on, and dreamt of it. The widow, as
she sat all alone in her little chamber shud-
dered with strange fear. Gertrude spraug
up from the cold grouud, where she had
been nesting close beside her sister, and
where she would have soon slept also, with
a cry of Joy. God had heard her prayers
and sent the voice of the wayside bell to
guide her homeward through the snow ;
and she knew by the sound that it could not
be very far off The young girl felt endued
with supernatural strength and lifting up
the slight form of her sister in her arms
for she would have died with her rather than
left her behnd-she tottered forward in the
direction from which the sound seemed to
come. Now she diyerged from the right
path, and the voice Of the bell became faint
er and fainter, and then again il tolled more
and more loudly and distinctly, and just as
she reached the edge of the wood, and caught
a glimpse of the light still burning in her
mothers cottage, it ceased -ssc-sSsl-ssr-ts
though it knew its mission was ended
Having rang the accustomed time, Paul
Vanderpant quilted the chapel, and proceed
ed homewards. The snow had ceased to
fall, and he saw to his surprise, directly be-
fore him, a female figure slightly clad, and
bearing as it seemed, some heavy burden
Slowly it toiled on, staggering beneath the
weight it bore, at length sank within few
PAGES of widow Hoffiman's cottage. For a
moment Paul thought of the wild legend
which Lily had told him concerning the
spirit of the wayside chapel, but it was only
for moment--the next he had sprung for
ward, and was kneeling beside the insensi-
BILE forms of Gertrude and her sister
We will not attempt to describe the scene
that followed, or endeavor to explain, or add
a single remark of our own to the above
simple and truthful narrative; but content
ourselves with adopting and believing Ger
trude's own sweet creed, that nothing is I'M
possible to God!
The wedding of Paul Vanderpant and
Gertrude Hoffman took place in the early
spring, and Lily was sufficiently recovered
to be her sisters bridesmaid.

MR.. CALHOUN'S VIEWS.

We copy below sketch of Mr.. Cahoun's
remarks in the Senate, on Tuesday the 2Sth
ut., from the Journal of Commerce.
Mr.. CALHOUN said there was a stiking
difference in the position in which the slave,
holding and the non-slaveholding States
stood upon this question. The former de-
sired no law for their benefit. All they
wished was the free use of the territories OF
the Union until they become States, when
they would regulate their own domestic in.
situations. But the non-slaveholding States
demanded law for the exclusion of the
people of the South from the territories,
with view to monopolize them as states
He denied the power which the non-slavc-
holding States claimed to do this.
This was coniederacy of States, all on
equal footing, and with equal right to the
common territory. The possession of slaves
did not destroy this equality. Slaves were
the only property expressly recognized by
the Constitution. Nor could the power be
found from the manner in which the terrific
ries were acquired. They were acquire d
by the common resources. There was nc
presumption in favor of such a power
mere was Ho poSiti'c Piooi uiicuScu, put
on the other side, it was assumed without a
particle of proof, that the Constitution gave
absolute power to Congtess over the terri.
tories.
The Senator from New York inferred
this power from the clause of the constitu-
ton comforting upon Congress power "to
make all needful rules and regulations re-
specting the territory and property of the
Union" Mr.. G.. showed that this contem-
plated land only, aud did not give govern
mental powers What confirmed this view
was that, in another express provision, the
power of exclusive legislation was given TO
Congress over the District ofCoumbia, and
sites for dock yards, forts, arsenals, &c.
The long list of precedents cited by Mr..
Dix to show that Congress had exercised
such powers, were all swept away by the
fact that the constitution gave no power to
Congress to establish a government. But
one of these precedents-the ordinance OF
l7s7-preceded the adoption Of the consti-
tuition. lie denied its applicability. The
old confederation could give no precedent

WOMAN.

It is not hor to guide the storm Of war,
To rule the state, or thunder at the hat
To sit with men in legislative hail
To govern realms, or marx their rise aud fell.
These thiIgs are not for her Ills woman'p care,
Alone to roar the shoots that flourish there;
To wipe the starting tear from chldhcod's eye,
To soothe his lit woes, his wants supply;
To guard his morals with unceasins caro-,
And bend for him the su?pant knee in prayer;
'Thcn give him in his lul' and pefect worth,
To sofve the land that smiled upon his birth.

COTTON.

Cotton planters and farmers through.
ont oil the cotton growing states watch
with intense interest the prices Of this ar
,iclc. Still the experience Of long Sc.
ries Of years conclus;vely shews that no..
thing more than a low average price can
be expected and obtained. Week after
week, the papers give the sales; and were
wc to saythat from 5 TO 6 cents is the av.
eragc, il would generally be correct. 1t
must he morlifying TO the planters contin-
ually TO hope for an incrensc in price and
be disappointed. Under such circnm-
stances and in view Of the results Of long
experience. they would do well no, to ex-
pect prices above a csrtainiaverage and
make their calculations and expenses &C.
cordingly. Such course, rigidly nd
hcred to, would make them more indie.
pendent Of pecuniary liabilities and the
attendant harrnssing anxieties. s
In accordance with our custom and the
rcpentcd requests Of our subscribers, we
give the price of cotton in the Charleston
market, at the last report, MS at from 5 La
to Ia, varying, we perceive, but little
from the average above mentioned.
