her Convention engrafted, we believe with entire
unanimity, the following provision upon the new
Constitution of the State:
"The General Assembly shall not emancipate any
slave or the descendant of any slave either before or
after the birth OF such descendant"
The Tribune may learn from this remarkable
prohibition the wholesome lesson that Northern
interference with the domestic concerns of the
Congressional legislation, or the not less cuIpable
process of popular agitation-has only riveted
more firmly in the Southern mind determination
to guard the institution of slavery by every posi-

Oh WOULD THATsHE HERE,

BIZ GEORGE P. MORRIS.
On would that she were here,
These hills and daes among,
Where vocal groves are gayIy Knocked
BY echo's airy tongue;
Where jocund nature smiles
In all her boon attire,
And roams the deeply-tangled wids
OF hawthorn and sweet briar,
Oh would that she were here
The gentle maid sing,
Whose voice is cheerful as the songs
Of iorest-birds in spring.
Oh would that she were here,
Where the free waters leap,
Shouting in sportiye joyousness,
Adown the rocky steep,
Where zephyrs crisp and cool,
The fountains as they play
With health upon their wings of light,
Aud gladness in their way.
Oh would that she were here,
With these balm-breathing trees,
The sylvan daughters Of the sun,
The rain-cloud and the breeze.
Oh would that she were here,
Where glide the ROSY hours,
Murm'ring the drowsy hum of bees,
And fragrant with the flowers
Where heavens redeeming love
Spans earth in mercy's bow,
The promise of the world above
Unto thG world below.
Oh would that she were here,
Amid these shades serene
Oh for the spell Of woman's love
To consecrete the scene!

Loneliness.

Young ladies, it is not your neat dress,
your expensive shawl, or your golden fin
gers, that attract the attention of men Of
sense. 1t is your character they study.
If you are trhing and loose in your conver-
satlon-no matter if you are beautiful as
an angel-you have no attraction for them.
1t is the true loveliness of your nature
that wins and continues 10 retain the affec-
tions of the heart. Young ladies sadly
miss it who labor to improve their out
ward looks, while they bestow not
thought on their minds. Fools may be
won by the gewgaws, and the fashionable
by snowy dresses; but the wise and SUBJ
stantial are never caught by such traps.
Use pleasant and agreeable language, and
though you may not be courted by the fop
and the sap, the good and truly great will
love to linger in your presence.
