JUDGE potter AND THE COMPROMISE SCHEME
Referring to the suggestion in the National Era
that possibly Potter and Sweetzer of Ohio, Lef
fer of Iowa, and Bissell Of Illinois, might vote
with the Shareholders for the compromise scheme,
the Toledo Republican remarks

is concerned, we cannot believe there is any
ground for such apprehension.
"Judge Potter, at Democratic caucus held in
this city last fall, declared himself earnestly OPP
posed to the extension of slavery, and in favor of
its prohibition by Congress; and took occasion
to say that he believed opposition to slavery
extension to be general sentiment of the Demo

William Wordsworth, the great English poet
OF man and nature, one of the foremost in the
ranks Of his countrys genius of all past time, died
at Rydal, by the side of his beloved mountains and
waters, on the twenty-ibird of April, 81 Georges
day Of England, and the day Of that osher protec-
tor and patron the accrediated birthday, as it was
also the day Of the death of Shakespeare On the
very day and year on which Shakespeare departed
Ceramics too died. The date in the calendar is
to be memorable one, to be treasured and cele-
brated in after times with reverence and affec-
tion of which now we can entertain but faint
idea; though we see surely that the honors of
literary history will oulast and surpass all others

THE Dying SoNG.-A few evenings before the
death of Mrs. Osgood she wrote, for young girl
who was trying to amuse her by making paper
flowers, the following verses, her dying song;
You've round my way,
And glsddened all my being;
How much thank you say,
Save only the AII-seeing
May He, who gave this lovely gift
This love Of lovely doings,
BE with you wheresoeer you go,
In ey'ry hopes pursuings.
Pm going through the eternal gates
Ere Junes sweet roses blow!
Deaths lovely angel leads me there
And it is sweet to 20.

unmatched for taste and grace, stood, in light

Nathan Guilford, and now mousaches, whskers
