A Cure-Not by the Doctors.

The frequer tiers of the Partisan opera have
been lately attracted by the rare beauty of a la
dy, whose presence was remarked at every rep
resentatioa.
Her eyes were superb, her shape ravishing, her
complexion slammed the lily, and her tresses
dark as night, fell on her shoulders in large wav-
ing masses. This beautiful girl was always ac-
companied by diminutlve, strangely dried up
man. with complexion the color Of saffron, and
who resembled res,lsitated mummy. so closely
did his thin skin stick to his sharp bones. How
old was he? No one could tell; he might be thr-
ty-fve or he might be ninety. II was soon known
that they were East Indians-they came from
Calcutta, and were father and daughter.
The father carried or his person the Signs OF
his opulencc-fve or six enormous diamonds gilt-
tering on his skeleton fingers, and on the embroi
dered bosom of his shirt The extravagant splen-
dor of his ornaments contrasted strangely with
simplicity of his daughters costume. A dress of
white muslin, confined at the waist with a green
ribbon, was all she wore, nothing more, not the
smallest piece of jewelry, no necklace, no brace
let, nor earring The most refined coqnettry
could not have struck out better style.
The poor man was a nabob, immensely rich,
and dying with Asatc spleen. He was gradu
ally sinking away with langnor, and his Indian
doctors had sent him to Europe in the hopes Of
saving his life. But his chance was poor one;
for Europe is stale, and her civilization mono.o
nous to man sated with the splerdor and eccen-
tricities of India. In truth, nothing astonished
bin, nothing moved him, at Paris; an astonlsh-
ment would have refreshed. sn emotion might

A mistake and its Correction.

The Gazette has twice undertaken te convict
US Of inconsistency, by informing its readers that
the Editor Of the Hawk-Eye, "aided and abetted
the County Commissioners Clerk in snmmoning
the candidates for Recorder before him to draw
lots for the Office, and that we afterwards declar-
ed we had nothing to 90 with it,''-and again,
'sthat our opinion previously stated publicly in
our paper, and privately, was that the tie be-
tween the candidates would have to be decided
before the Commissioners Clerk under the old
law.''
What We said publicly in the columns of the
Hawk-Eye, is of course on record, open to the
inspection or all, and it would have been well for
the Gazette to have referred to it, and given its
readers the benefit of it, before basing upon it a
charge of Inconsistency against US. As to what
we have privately said, whatever it may have
been, we think the over anxiety Of the Gazette
to convict us Of inconsistency has led it to 60 ra-
ther further in the search and publication of pri
vate conversations, than propriety would justify.
We Go not attribute to the editor any desire to
misrepresent us. The least, however, that we
can say is that he has been misinformed, perhaps
by some too kind friend, of something that he
really thinks we have said, inconsistent with our
published opinions.
We had no communication with the County
Commissioners Clerk, and gave him no advice,
counsel assistance the subject Of the tie be-
tween the candidates for Recorder. As to hav-
ing afterwards declared eve had nothing TO do
with it,: we could not have declared any thing
else, if we made any declaration on the subject.
What we said publicly in the Hawk-Eye Of Au-
gust 18th, we no doubt said privately;-and yet
we think that it would puzzle the Gazette to con-
vict us Of any inconsistency therein with the po-
stions we have since maintained, when it was
ascertained and made known that two ballots had
been rejected in Flint River Township because
they were folded together and had the appear
ance Of being cast as one vote When informed
Of that fact we contended as we contend still,
there was no other course to be adopted but to
order new election.

The Ruling Passion strong in Ara.

A sailor, during a whaling voyage, while Ia
! menting to his messmates the society Of his fe-
male acquantances, whom he had left behind
wound up with
''I tell you what il is boys, I've determined TO
kiss the first woman meet, after land, that is
provided she's cot single tooth in her head that
is, furthermore, ir she'll let me.''
"Good," shouted his companions; swe'fI re-
member that, Jack, and hold you TO yor proIi-

The party separated. Days rolled on, and the
"Falcon' lay al her mcorings. The crew were
paid off. and were now starting for home.
They left the ship with h-avy hearts and il
seemed 10 them like entering a new world, TO

As the crew were leisurely leaving the ship
and walking up the quay, one OF them spied fe-

New York.

The result Of the labors of the Whig Conven-
tion Of the State of New York, has been hereto
fore announced. A full Wing ticket was agreed
upon, with unity Of purpose and harmony of
action, that inspire the Wings of other portions
Of the Union, with the strongest confidence that
the differences which last year produced such
unpleasant distraction in the party in that State,
have all been forsotten. The convention met,
agreeing to the Albany PLATFORM platform
embodying the soundest principles of constitu-
tional liberty.

France.

A"e ia'est accounts from France bring Us the
news that the Prince de Joinyille-son Of I,oui,
fhii'ppe--has resolved 10 initiate the ex,mn,. -
Louis Napoleon and seek to end his exile by
means OF an election either to the National As.
semo'y or TO the Presidency. A decree Of BAN
'shment against all the members of his family
now forb'ds his return to France. II he should
oe elected to the Assembly, an attempt will Of
course oe made to ahrogate this decree, and
should he secure his seat, he will next be put in
nomination FOR the Presidency, and win himself
De at Paris to direct the campaign.
The aspect Of public affairs in France is by no
means favorable to republicanism, as the term is
understood by US. No American can view with
o'her than feelings Of the liveiest regret, The sad
oariesqae that is making there, of the very name
OF Republic. Under so called Republican con-
st'tat'on, there Is no such thing as liberty Of
speech-liberty Of the press--or liberty Of any
Sort The prisons are full of offending editors
and orators. The press is muzzled and the tongue
Is tied, pretty much as it was under the dominion
Of Napoleon or Charles Tenth.
Not the least singular among the bundle of
contradictions which startlc US in our contempla.
ton of French Republicanism, is the singular
fact that the two asprants whose names are now
most prominant as candidates for the Presidency.
are both constitutionally ineligible, and both rep
resentatives of those monarchal families-Napo-
leon and the younger branch of Orleans-which
were raised BY popular vii! to throne which
had twice been draggled under foot by a rsvolu-
tion.
France will have to learn great deal yet, be-
fore she can claim to be a Republic. Her politi-
cal education has been very much neglected.
She has beeh almost all the time in the hands Of
sciolists who did not know themselves the frs;
rudiments of the lessons they undertook TO teach.
If the people had the right kind Of knowledge
touching personal liberty and free government,
the President and Assembly would no more have
dared to practice the usurpations we have lately
witnessed in the Imprisonment of editors and Or
aors for exercising the rights Of free speech and
free press, and the destruction of the right of
suffrage, than the President and Congress of the
United States would now dare to do so,
AS matters exist at present, France is re-
proach to the cause, and Republicanism itself is
at discount among the nations of the Old World.
France furnishes to such anti-republican presses
as the London Times, their most powerful argu-
ments against the establishment of the principle
Of Self Government; and Despotism itself has no
stronger ally than Republican France, in CONT
mental Europe.

The return Of the schooner brought to Moses

The return Of the schooner brought to Moses
his wife and children.
Early the next spring, as Mr. B. was one dav
standing at the store door, he saw man leap up-
on the wharf from the deck of vessel and walk
hurriedly towards the store. He soon recogniz-
Cd him at Col. c. They exchanged salutations
ana TO the Colonel's inquiry after Moses, Mr. B.
replied that he was up stairs measuring grain. and
invited nm to walk up and see him. Soon BIS
attention was arrested by confused noise above.
tie listened and heard an unusual shutting of
feet, some one sobbing, violently, and some one
talking very hurriedly; and when he reflected on
Col. C's singular movements and the peculiar ex-
preston OF his countenance he became alarmed
ana determined to 60 up anl see what was trans
piring.
When he reached the head of the stairs he was
startled by seeing Moses in the middle Of the
noor, down upon one knee, with his arms around
the Coione's waist. and talking most rapidly,
while the Colonel stood weeping audiblv. So
soon as the Colonel could sufficiently control his
feelings. he told Mr. b. that he had never been
able to free himself from the influence of Moses,
prayers ana ,n@t Daring the past year, he and his
wife. and children had been converted 10 God
Moses responded; sBress God, massa C., doe
! way up hea, neber forgit You in nv prayers;
! oilers put me de ole massa side de new one.
Bress God. Dis make Moses tink bout JOSEPH
in dc Egypt sgin.'
lhe Colonel then stated to Mr. B. that his OBJ
Ject OF coming to Baltimore was to buy Moses
and his family buck again. But Mr. B. assured
him that was out Of the question, for he could not
part with him; and he intended to manumit Mo-
ses and his wife at forty, and bis children at thir-
ty years Of age.
Moses was not far wrong in reference TO Jo-
seph. For when Joseph was sold to Egypt, God
overruled it to his good, and he obtained bless
ings that were far beyond his expectations; so
with Moses, Joseph eventually proved the instru-
ment OF saving the lives Of those who sold him.
Moses proved the instrument in Gods hands Of
saving the mans who sold him. .E
Old Moses is still living and doing WELL He
has not long since obtained his freedom, at pre-
sent he occupies comfortable hous. Of his own,
