Ais for the Best.
by MARTIN F. UPPER

Ais for the best; be sanguine and cheerful;
Trouble and sorrow are friends in disguise;
Nothing but folly goes faithlcss and FEARFUL
Courage forever is happy and wise:
Ais for the st,--if man would but know it;
Providence wishes US all to be blest;
This is no dream of the fancifnl poet;
Heaven is gracious, and-all's for tho best!
Ais for the BEST set this on your standard,
Soldier of adncss, or pilgrim of love,
Who to the shores oldespair may have wander'd
A way .wcaried swallow or heartstricken dove
Ais for the best!-be 4 man but confding,
Providence tenderly governs the rest,
And the frail barque Of His creatures is guiding
Wisely and warily, .all for tho best.
ALPS for the best! then fling away terrors,
Meet all your foes and your fears in the van,
And in the midst Of your dangers or errors,
Trust like child, while you strive like man;
Ais for the best!--unbased, unboundud,
Providence reisns from the east to the west;
And by both wisdom and mercy surrounded,
Hope and be happy that alls for the best.

Guizot, in a work upon French democrat
cy, pays tho following tribute to Washing
ton
"Washington has no resemblance to Ma
poleon. lie was not despot. He founded
the political liberty at the same time as the
national independence of his country. He
used war only as means TO peace. Rails
ed to the supreme power without ambition,
he descended from it without regret, as soon
as the safety of his country permitted. He
is the model for oil democratic chiefs. Now
you have only to examine his life, his soul,
his acts, his thoughts. his words; You will
not find single mark of condcscenson,
single moment of indulgence, for the favor
lite ideas of democracy. He constantly etrug
gled-struggled even to WEAKNESS and sad
ness-against its exactions. No man was
ever more profoundly imbued with the spir-
it of government or with respect for author
ity. He never exceeded the rights ofpow-
er, according to the laws of his country; but
he confirmed and maintained them, in prin-
ciple as well as in practice, as firmly. as
lottily, as he could have Gone in On old mon
archicaI or aris.ocra,ical state. He was one
of those who knew it is no more possible to
govern from below, in q republic, than in
monarchy-in democratic than in an aris-
tocratic society,""

Minnesota.

The following extract Of a correspondent
of the Galena Gazette, dated Washington
March 10th, will show the difficulties which
the Minnesota bill met with on its passage.
Among the many important acts that
have become laws, the act for the estab-
lshment of the Territory of Minnesota is
among the most important to our section OF
the country. Probably, no bill has ever be-
come law that has run 60 many gauntlets
as this Minnesota bill, and great credit is due
to the Hon. II. II. SHELLEY, for navigating it
safely through.
Mr.. S. has proved hinselfa most popular,
active and efficient delegate. and he has &C
complisbed more for his constituents than
has ever been accomplished before by men,
Der Of Congress in the same length of time.
In the struggle to get in the Wilmot Provi-
so, in the disagreement between the two
branches in relation to the time it should 60
into operation, thought the bill inevitably
lost a half dozen times, but Mr.. $. by his
skill and energy saved it, and finally on the
very last day of the session it became a law.
The bill as reported conta ined no appropri-
alton for the payment Of the salaries of the
officers created, and it passed 90 late to get
an item into the general appropriation bill.
Mr. S. then went to work in the Senate and
got an appropriation for the payment of these
salaries attached as an amendment to pri:
vate bill from the House. His private bi i
with its incongruous amendment got back
to the House about midnight, and utter be
ing first rejected, was finally concurred in
so the appropriation was saved, making in
all the appropriations for the new Territory
for State House, Library, Legislature Sala
/ iiies, &C., the snug little sum Of forty. h
tto;:sas,d dollars.
The appointment for the various Offices
suppose will BIZ sent IN to the Senate mex
week. The bill having passed oefore MIR
Folks official existence EXPIRED ne was mos
strongly importuned to appoint Two Oh tn
Judges, but he refused to do SO, thus leaving
all his appointments to be made by his sue
cessor.

The St. Louis Republican Of the 10Th inst
says: "Receipts of produce, for the past
forty eight hours, have been immense, and
perhaps, heavier, in the aggregate, than
was ever known at this port for the same
time. At dark las: evening, there was no
less than fifteen cargoes aaoat, consisting
principally, Of Pork, Lard, Bulk meat,
Wheat &c. The levee to-day, will present
a scene unequalled in the trade of this city,
and there will be, undoubtedly, the largest
amount oftbese articles discharged that was
ever placed upon the landing, during any
one day.''
