we Parted.

We parted in silence, we parted by night,
On the banks of that lonely river,
Where the fragrant limbs their boughs unile ,
We met-and we-parted for ever!
The night-bird sung, and the stars above
Told many a touching story;
q friends long gone to the kingdom Of love
Where the soil wears its mantle of glory.
We parted in siIence-odir cheeks were vel
With the tears that were past controlling;
We vowed we would never, no never forget;
And the vows at the time were consoIing,
But the lips that echoed the vows TO mine
Are as cold as the lonely river;
And the sparkling eye, the spirits shrine,
Has shrOuded its fires forever.
And now on the midnight sky / look,
Till my heart grows full to weeping,
Each star is 10 me a sealed book,
Some tale of that loved one keeping.
We parted in silence-we parted in tears,
By the banks Of that lonely river;
But the OdOr and bloom Of those by-gono years
Shall hang o'ev its waters forever,

JNo. A. oUITMAN
THE DIFFICULTY WITH FRANCE.

- wa - \ va ~
Our Government is at present involved in a
difficulty with Monsieur Poussin, the French
Minister at washington. It's origin is pro-
baby explained in some Geographic des-
patches which we find in the Picayunc. Il
seems that during the war with Mexico; Col.
Childs sold some tobacco, which haG1been
seized by the Americans, TO aFrechman named
Pote. The tobacco, hawever, was not subject
to seizure, and upon learning this fact Col.
Childs restored it to its proper owner aud gave
Pote his purchase money. The Frenchman
still claimed the tobacco, and insisted upon it
until a court Of inquiry examined and decided
against his claim. M. Poussin appealed on
behalf Of Pote to the authorities at Wishing
ton. Mr.. Buchanan did not act on the APP
peal but leftlt for Mr. Clayton, who approved
the decision Of the court Of inquiry. The
French Minister then charged Col. Childs with
perjury and used other insulting language
Mr.. Clayton, concciying that the affront was
unintentionaI, pointed o~ut--unofi. ially-the
objections to M. Poussin's letter, and told
him he could Withdraw il and write one Of q
different tenor. The French Minister profted
by this amicable hint, and ii was then thought
that the difficulty was at an end.
In May the French Minister had again oc-
casiOn to write to Mr.: Clayton on business,
under the following circumstances Com'r
Carpenter, whilst commanding a blocSading
vessel on the coast Of Mexico, was called on
by the captain of the French ship Eugene, to
save her from shipwreck. Com'r Carpenter
done as requested and then demanded legal
salvage, which was refused and the Commo.
dote eventually restored the French craft 70
her captain The despatch then says:
When the subject was submitted to Mr.
Claytonyhe sent Com'r Carpenters statement
Of the facts to the French Minister, when M
Poussin, instead Of referring The matter to BIZ
Government; addressed another letter to tht
Secretary; in which he grossly reflected on th'
honor und character Of tie whole Am6tlcaf
marine.
President Taylor forthwith directed the en-
tire correspondence to be laid before the Frencl
Government and required immediate and vol
untary redress. But instead of making atone
ment, the French Minister Of Foreign A fair
has attempted to renew the insult to our Gov
eminent, by sharing the responsibility Of N
Poussin.
President Taylor therefore ordered that al
correspondence with M. Poussin should cease
and be be informed that his passports wer
ready for him. Thus the matter stands at pres
cut; Gen. Taylor declares that he will nc
and cannot, IN honor, swer7c an inch fror
the position he has assumed.
I'll is also stated that the French Ministe
wrote an offensive letter 10 the State DeparI
ment concerning certain letters Of MI. Walsl
us. Consul at Paris. The President wrot
to the French Government by the last steamer
demanding tho Minister'S recall. No answe
10 this last communication has yet beer Il

ance with the terms Of agreement on The part
Of the United States, Is now impossible, and II
remains for the Legislature to say, whether the
State shall quietly submit to the breach Of con-
tract, petition Congress for compensation, or
declare lie contract violated, and provide laws
for levyiGg and collecting taxes on these lusds,
as on other real estate, within its jurisdiction.
The iast course, would in my opinion, bpst conf
port with the interest aud honor Of the State,
would be justified by every principle Of Law /,
and sustain, d by the sense Of justice OF the
nation.
Connected with the more rapid development
OF our resources, and as a means Of rendering
agricultural wealth more available, we may
venture with safety upon a cautious INCREASE
OF OUR BANKING CAPITAL When the profits OF
agriculture exceed those Of money, there Is
surely little danger in extending Me banking capt
tai TO an amount equal 10 Ne annual Udhue Of THE
WHOLE PRoDucTrvE LABOR of THIS STATE. The
planter who anticipates the nett proceeds Of
his crop, and judiciously invests III m IN the
business, runs no more, | might even say less,
risk than is incident to every ordinary mercan
tile tranSaction and il lie limits his loan to
that standard, cannot be obnoxious 10 the
charge Of Overtrading. The active bankin ing
capital of the State now falls short of ten mil.
lions, While the exports Of coit1n amount to
about sixteen millions. and are rapidly %jncreas-
ing. This additional capital, if required by
those who are the Best Judges Of their own
wants, can; in my opinion be readily obtained
either by inviting the investment Of private
capital in bank stock, or by The pledge Of rea
estate, without, r%esorting to the very doubtful
policy Of involving the body polite IN private
specululions.

An VAIOREM DuTIRs-SwNoLINe.-A Ro.t aT
paper Of a recent date contains a large array
Of facts to show thatthe practice Of Tsssalitx
under the ad radorem principle Of the present
'anh has increased TO an enormous extent.
Every man can see that the revenue cannot
escape fraud when imported articles are faxed
according to value, and when the evidence 81
that value is Obtnined from the invoice. Thia
formed one Of the great objectiOns urged 81
the Wigs against tie Tariff OF 1916. Thar
warnings were not needed, however, and one
result is that Uncle Sam is the victim Of Bril-.
lsh dishonesty, and ano her is that American
merchants, refusing to cheat the revenue, ars
driven from The business Of importing. Thsy
buy their goods from English merchants deEv.
cred an Me United States; and the English mcr-
chants invoi,e fine broadclo,h at. setsntggydpe
cents the running yard and brandy at aboG.
the same per. gallon, and our tariff collects
duties of these articles in accordance win
such false and shameless invoicing. A Bos-
ton merchant recently ordered a large and SDe-
cial lot OF shawls from Glasgow. his invoices
were honest and he paid the PROPER duty
Learning, however, that the same kind Of
shawlS were selling in New York al much
lower prices than those at which he could az
ford to dispose Of his importation, To III
qai'ed into the matter and found that the
New York merchants were making a prof.
even at their prices in cOnseq ueRce Of having
paid a very low duty on 'aIse invoices.
A great many other facts and instanceS
might be given to prove that, the ad saioyeA
principle will not do, and lhat one Of tie Est
duties of the next Congress will be to remedy
the evils complained of by substituting, The
specific principle in its misunderstanding NRsg:
