was called upon after his neighbor II had ended,

DULL PROSPECTS FOR THE TAYLOR AID.
MlNISTRATION.

The Republic Taylor's especial advo-
cate and organ--is laborng hard, as in duty
bound to do, to ward off the effects of their re-
cent overwhelming defeat in Connecticut. Il is
an uphill business, ard about satisfactory as
the labors of the tabled Sysiphus No sooner
does the modern Sysiphus roll up the huge vol
ume of the peoples condemnation from one sec
ton, than it comes laundering with redoubled
force and power from some other. 1t is in vain
to struggle against the inevitable doom that a.
waits this. incongruous and feeble adnlinistra-
ton. 1t has been weighed in the balance and
is found wanting. The people have written its
doom with finger no less omnipotent for its
downfall than was the hand which traced his
fate before the glazed eyebals Of the impiops
Belshazzar.
The Republic labors in vain No ingenuity
can set aside the facts. The Administration, or
the do nothing Taylor party, has been beaten
every where, and in every contes. since it came
into power. With feeble and unqualified head;
divided and corrupt Cabinet-the crushing
weight of broken pledges and unredeemed pro-
misses resting upon it-no earthly power can
galvanze into even temporary life this political
ly dead body.
Those who know not the facts, if any such
can be found, may be deceived by the garbings
of the Republic and its coadjutors; but even
they will suspect that something is wrong when
they find the people every where uniting against
their present rulers. Whatever gloss the Repub-
lie may feel it necessary to put upon the case
there stands the undeniable truth. The Admin
istration of Zachary the First is condemned.
The people have pronounced their unmstakable
verdict, and there is no court of competent jn-
risdiction to set aside the judgment. There is
no special pleader sufficiently powerful to turn
away the minds Of the jury from the strong and
conclusive evidence in the case.
We would advise the Republic to give up the
hopeless contest, and to come out honestly and
acknowledge the facts, asst was forced to do
with regard TO the violated pledges about reno
walls from Office. 1t admitted then that General
Taylor had removed officers for opinions sake;
let it now acknowledge what everybody knows;
that Gen. Taylor and his party are in the sere
and yellow Leaf, wanting, dying, dead and gone

PIT AND PAT.
BY HENRY II. PAUL,

A beau / had once on lime,
A handsome fellow, too
Who wore mustaches, danced and sung,
And other graces knew.
The time we met-delightful thought!
When all was hope and fear;
His heart went pit and then went pat
He must have felt SO queer.
When next we met, twas in a skiff,
Upon lake Of blue;
He there confessed how much lie felt,
And vowed his .ove was true.
His agitation! 0 how sweet!
His whispers-gentle, low
His heart went pat, and then went pit
Indeed he told me SD.
Twas in a glen we babe adieu,
Just where cypress swept,
Its branches for trystlng place,
And where since have wept.
The time of tremulous delight,
Is over now and past;
No more his heart goes pit or pat.
Brief, doth loves signals last.

MISCELLA NEOUS.
TIE THREE LOVING SISTERS.

The wise Emperor Thodosius had three daugh-
tiers. Wishing to discover which Of them loved
him the best, he said to the first:
GLOW much do you love me ?''
..Alore than do myself" was the reply.
Pleased with her affection he gave her in mar
rage TO mighty king. Then he came to the
second, and asked her how much she loved him.
cas- much as ! do myself" she answered.
The Emperor married her to Duke. After
wards he enquired of his third daughter;
..And how much do you love me :"
GAS much as you deserve and no more,'1 was
the somewhat pert response.
Her father thought that an earl was good enough
for her. Some time after this the emperor was
beaten in battle by the King of Egypt, and driven
from the land he had long ruled so wisely. In
his distress he naturally though Of his afiectonate
first born; and wiring an ePistle to her IN most
pathetic words requested her to succor him. Her
husband was wiling to succor his father in-law 10
the utmost of his pawer; but the unnatural daugh-
ter declared that five knights only should be sent
to him to remain with him until he should regain
his crown. Iheodosius was heavy OF heart when
he saw but five hurseuen riding towards him in
stead of the countless spires he hoped to see brlSt
ling on the horizon but he concealed his emotion
and wrote off for aid TO his second daughter. She
was willing to find him food and cluling fitting
for his rank during the continuance OF his mlsfor-
tune, but would not suffer her doughty duke" to
lead an army into the field in his behalf. The
emperor almost in despair, applied, last Of all, to
his third daughter; and she shedding fall floods of
tears when she heard of her fathers melancholy
circumstances, prevailed upon her lord to raise
valiant host by means of which Theodosius, was
quickly enabled to resume the imperial purple
Griesed that he had given credit tor SO little af-
lection when, as he had found, it was the ruling
passion Of her heart, he willed his sceptre to his
loving child-Eclectic ,Nagazine.

THE Power OF INrrnEsr.-lna former yo

The Power OF INTEREsr,-Ina former vol
ume of the Literary World statistical account is
given of The Rise and Progress of New York,
commencing with the fact that, that IT., the year
1926, the island which now constitutes the City
and County of New York, was purchased of the
Indians for sixty guiders, or ,vellty.four dollars.
This seems cheap Yet if the purchasers had
invested the sum, or another Similar sum of $24
lated capital on such an inv estment would, in this
year, 1850, amount to sixty-ive millions Of dol.
lars in other words twenty ioui dollars so in
vested would now be worth more than the county
and city Of New York, deducting what has been
expended upon the zeal estate since it was pur-
chased from the Indians Ergo, the land Fur is
