which have since agitated and governed the coun-
Try, We're developed. and went into separate and
living action. Gen. Nashiug.on's cabinet wa.
composed of b, III of these original elenents-and
hence the difficulties with which he had to contend
privately during both his terms, for eight wears
one OF those elements succeeded in the election Of
John 4aaams-and then commenced the open con-
lest between tho two parties which auiated this
country to the pres ut day. From that period
tsa"a t. the time Of John Quincy Adau,s. tha
democratic clement ruled in the general govern
mem ana throughout the country. With the de-
feat ct John Quincy Adams, and the election of
Gen. jackson, commenced new phase of tho
same political action which characterised the re-
pubic. Parties Were again divided, with a mod-

POETRY.
now SOFTLY ON THE BRUISED
HEART.

soNG--BY C. d. STUART.
How softly on the bruised heart
A word Of kindness falls,
And TO the dry and parched soul
The moist'ning &ear-drop calls,
Q, if they knew, who walk the Earth
Mid sorrow, grief and pain,
The power a word Of kindness hath.
'Twere Paradise again.
The weakest and the poorest may
This simpia pttancc give,
And bid delight to vitherd hearts
Return again and live,
o, what is life, iflove be lost
If mans unkind to man
Or what the Heaven that waits beyond
This brief and mortal span?
AS stars upon the tranquil sea
In mimic glory shine,
So words of kindness in the heart
Reflect their source divine,
o, then, be kind, whoe'er thou art
That breathest mortal breath,
And it shall brighten all thy life,
And sTeeten even death.
