THE ANGELS WING.
BY SAMUEL LOVER,

There is German superstition, thai,
when a sudden silence takes place in .
an angel at that moment,
makes a circuit around them, and til,
first person who breaks the silence IL
supposed TO have been touched by the
wing of the seraph. For the purpose
poetry, | thought two persons prefern
BILE to many, in illustrating this yer!
beautiful superstition.
When by the evenings quis, light
There sit two silent lovers,
They say, while in such tranquil plight,
An angel round them bovers;
And further still old legends tell;
The first who breaks the silent spell,
To say a soft ard pleasing thing,
Hath felt the passing angels wing.
Thus, a musng minstrel stry'd
BY tho summer ocean,
Gazing on lovely maid.
With bard's devotion;
Yet his love he never spoke,
Till now the silent spell he broke,
The hidden fire to flame did spring,
Fann'd by the passing angels wing.
! have loved the well and long,
With love Of Heavens own making!
This is not a poets song,
But true hearts speaking;
| will love thee, still untired!
He lelt-he spoke-as one inspired;
The words did from Truths fountain spring
Unwakened by the angels wing!
Silence DER the maiden fell,
Her beauty loveler making;
And by her blush, he knew full we'll
The dawn Of love was breaking.
II came like shunshine DER his Heart!
He felt that they should never pert
She spoke-and oh!-the lovely thing
Had felt the passing angels wing.
THE COUNTRY MAID.
Within the cooling shadow
&Of wood
Where for years unnumbered
Oaks have stood, aa
| simple maiden
Glanced TO meet.
Downcast were her eyelids-
Bare her feet.
Tell me-" quoth |, maiden,
Tell me true,
Has. no vague desire,
Hence TO 60?
Raised she her eyelids,
And in low tones dixit-
al don't quit these diggingS,
No how you can fix it!'

MIA as State. Perhaps so but at what price
At the price of the rights, the honor and the
dignity of the Southern States! / This is the
first payment, if submitted to but will it be the
last Alas no ; as well might you expect the
wolf to come into your fold and select single
victim from the herd, and then 90 away and
never troubeit more. This is the blowwhich, if
submitted to, prostrates the South; and the North
ern harpes well know it. They know if this is
suffered to pass, they wrap their anaconda coil
around us, and have but to hold on to crush us,
bone by bone, until vitality is extinct. The
wolf viii return for another victim before the
warm blood dries of his chaps. We do not
know, however, what is to be done. As long
as one half the leaders in the South are singing
lullaby notes, and the people are only too will

by them, we see nothing else that patriotism can
do than to lift her warning voice, and then, in

result long ago" let it come"

Abolition of slavery In the District

~~SAeAOAA "a 0AaV0Ay Az sASO DAollACl.
From the report Of Congressional proceed
ngs yesterday, it will be seen that another prop
ositon looking to the abolition of slavery in the
District of Columbia, was made in the House by
Mr. PRESTON KING. The vote was, ayes ffy-t,oo,
nays one hundred and niae--serenfy-taoo members
absent or not voting. Ofcourse all theayes were
Northern men, and unless the ranks of Abolition
have filled wonderful ly fast during the session,
many of those .'sound Northern conservatives"
so much relied on by the Hiteliigencer and other
National" prints in this city, must have been
caught in this trap. Others, however, We're OBJ
served to perform the safe but undignhed opera
ton of '.dedging," either by leaving the Hall or
turning deaf ear to the call Of the Clerk. A
majority of the Northern men voting, were in
favor of suspehding the rules for this purpose
On direct vote it would have been much
stronger--thc press of business, and the late pc
riod of the session, being sufficient excuses for
opposing it in the form in which it was brought
up.
These thipps need no comment

The Texas NAVY. Y

The officers of the United States navy have
been active in their opposition to the incorpora-
ton of the surviving officers of the navy of
Texas into our service. Have they taken the
trouble to inform themselves? DO they know
that the proposition is to create new places for
the Texas officers; and that the date of their
commissions cannot possibly go further back
than the date of the annexation of Texas ? Do
they know that the annexation Of the Texas
navy is part of the international compact with
Texas And would it not be more magnani-
nous for the officers of the United States SER
vice to extend a helping hand to their old ship
mates, instead of iaboring to cast them high
and dry. Our officers viii gain nothing by ex-
Guiding the Texas ofiicers--they will lose moth

A RESORT TO FoRcE.-The Philadelphia Led
ger, paper which, we believe, belongs to the
proprietors Of the Baltimore Sun, and which is
anti-Southern in all its phases, says: 'Itisquite
time to test the strength Of this Union" and
expresses the opinion shat the Union will be a
rope of sand till the sword be dracn, and then it
will be indssoluble." A pretty strong threat to
coerce obedience to the will of a tyrannical ma
jority. So the North seems really to be looking
forward to the necessity of resorting to force in
order to sustain her aggressive policy upon the
South What do Virginians think of this mode
of testing the strength of the Union?

MEssRs EDIToRs: You promise to publish
Mr. Bayys remarks on the Mexican Indemnity
in your paper of tomorrow. AS the case made
by Mr. Bayly, and to which his remarks apply,
is not the real case before Congress, and as his
remarks mised the Judgment Of the House, and
may mislead the judgment Of the public, and
especially as Mr.. Bayly's remarks misreprcsent
the agency which had in this matter, you will
oblge me by inserting The following as the true
state Of the case
Mr. Marks was in Mexico, and ascertained
that the Mexican Government desired to have
the Sums to become due, pal in New York in
steqd Of in Mexico He came to New Orleans
and wrote tn my son, who was his personal
friend, requesting him to ascertain whether the
American Government would consent to pay
the money in the United States A verbal
understanding was had with the late Admins
tration, that upon the application of the Mexican
Government, the money would be paid in the
United States. Mr.. Marks went to Mexico, and
has been employed by that Government to
negotiate for the payment in the United States,
and the Mexican Minister has been authorized
to receive and receipt for the money.
1t is therefore simply question whether the
money shall be paid to the Mexican Govern
ment, who agree to allow four and a half per
cent. for exchange, or handed over to the Bar
ing's and others, who offer but three and half
per cent. for exchange thus giving to these
rich bankers $4,000 out of the public Treasury
which the Mexican Government propose to
leave in it.
propose hereafter to review Mr. Bayly's
speech. My present purpose is to state that the
only question in this case was whether the
money should be paid directly to the Mexican
Government or handed over the Baring's, who
will use it to speculate on the necessities of
that Government. DUFF GREEN

The Cherokee Advocate the 10Th inst, says:
The recent intelligence from Washington, makes
it more important that the people Of the South
should meet together, wherever and whenever
practicable, and take council as to the best modes
of resistance to aggression. Submission to re-
peated encroachments is not to be thought Of
We need nothing that is not our right But
after Southern men and Georgians have deter
mined how much they will concede for the sake
of peace, it becomes an imperative duty to main
tain and defend at every hazard, whatever of
rights they have not voluntarily conceded. The
only alternative is, to consent to hold all, at the
will of mere MINERAL majority. This would be
equivalent to submission to whatever Of oppres-
sion or insult may be put upon us by that ma
iority. Let the people meet in council and
speak out, in the tone Of men determined to be
heard, and resolved that they will not tamely bow
their neck to the yoke.
To the mass meeting then, let all be urged,
who can go Let Cherokee set an example to
be followed by other sections of the State, and
the influence of Georgia will be felt in checking
the progress of Free-soilism that exerts control
over the Legislation and influence of the Gene
raj Government.
