When first we met, thought her fair,
And faultless-withoat guile;
That no deception slumbered there,
Beneath that radiant smile.
Those eyes 90 blue, one could but deem
They were type Of heaven,
Those checks SO red, they sure did seem
To q sweet angel given
Again we met.-The charm dispelled.
Her beauties all have flown.
The loveliness that captive held,
The heart has hideous grown.
The light that bore my hopes above
Our common clay; is gone;
And truthfulness, and womah'i love-
Its poetry, hath flown.
Oh,'whcwQpld seek in human form,
Perfection in its pride;
Or whowoud quest, through lowering storm,

The plague spot did reveal;

Defaced her stockings heel.

compliment to oursef, as editor. etc, we do not
pretend to be deserving. They, by mistake, put
the price at 50 90, instead of the true price,

The United States and Austria

The sum and substance oflhe correspondence
between Mr.. Kusemann, the Austrian Charge
at Washington, and Secretary Webster, about
which considerable is SAID, these days. is as fol
lows:
On the Both OF Sept. Mr.. H. addressed letter
to our State Department, irnpe:tlncntly speaking
of the ignorance of the late Taylor Cabinet, in
regard to the Hungarian affairs, and complain
ing of the mission of A. Dudley Mann the Sc
,cret agent of General Taylor, who was sent out
to acknowledge the independence Of Hungary.
The tone of the whole letter, aud even some of
the language is insulting 10 our free govern.
ment.
Mr.. Webster in reply, defends the action of
Taylor and Clayton, and takes an eloquent view
OF he re action upon Europe OF our American
ideas and example OF liberty, quoting from the
Emperurs Joseph d. and Francis l.. and the Lay
bach circular OF l84l. "'rl,e power of the re
public" he says, at the present moment, is
spread over region, one Of the richest and most
fcrtl e on the globe, and If an extent in com
parison with which the possessions of the house
of llapsburgh are but as patch OIL the earth's
surface. Its population, already twenty five
millions, will exceed that the Austrian empire
within the period during which il may be hoped
that NJ. Hulseman may yet remain in the honor
able discharge Of his duties to his government "
He then justifes cur sympathy with republicans
every where, and reminds MIR. Hulsemann that,
if the American press propagate mendacious
rumors," they obtain them from the press Of Eu-
rope, and therefore Gen Taylor did right in seek
ing true information firm authentic sources -
, The course of Mr.. Stiles our lormer charge, is
approved by Mr. Webster as it was by Austria.
The application of the word "spy" to Mr.. Due
ley Mann is Indignantly resented by Mr. Web
ster, and Nj. Hulsemann splainly told that he
mislepreseRls the instructions gives to Mann
by Mr.. Clayton In conclusion Mr.. Webster
says
