tons among the nations of Europe, which have follow
ed each other in such quick succession and of which

TWEEN the hasty disionted, and necessarily mpeecrn

She who sleeps upon my heart
Was the hrs. to win it:
She who sleeps upon nay breast
Ever reigns within it:
She who discs oil my lips,
Wakes their warnest blessing;
She who rests within my arms,
Feels their closest pressing.
Other days than these shall come,
Days that may be dreary;
Other hours shall greet US yet,
Hours that may be weary;
Still that heart shall be Thy home,
SILL thai breast thy pillow;
Still those lips meet thine as oft
billow meet bilIow.
Sleep, then, on my happy heart,
since thy love hath won it;
Dream, then, on my loyal breast
None but thee hath done it;
And when age our bloom shall change,
With its wintry weather;
May we in the seIf-sane grave
Sleep and dream together.

ike young emotion .
TO look upon the fairy one who stands
Before you with her young hairs shining hands,
And rosy lips half parted; aud to muse
Not on the features which you now persue,
Not on the blushing bride, but look beyond;
Unto the angel wife nor feels less fond;
To keep the but to one and let that one
Be to thy home what warmth Is to the sun;
And fondly, firmly cling to her, nor fear
The fading touch of each declining year;
This Is true love-when il has found rest
In the deep home Of manhood's faithful breast"

any immediate interest in the establishment of the
Protective System but acting IN good faith to our
Northern Allies, the Southern Wing party tiedit-
self to an unpopular issue and fell with it. There
turn which we have for this-is a general alliance
of Northern Whiggery with Abolitionism, or much
the same thing Free-Soilism.

KossuTH.

The base, treacherous and inhuman
treatment Of this noble pattiot, by the
Sultan, under The dictation Of Russia and
Austria, is one Of the bIackest pages in
the annals Of persecution, and should
call down the execraiion Of the civilized
world. He and his companions at
Kutahia have recently addressed pro-
test 10 the Turkish Government, ex-
posing the perfdy Of the Porte, and the
Austrian despOt, in glowing language.
They say:
.sTo.day is the anniversary of our ar
rival at Kutahja! Kutahia! the tomb
whore the sublime porte has buried US
alive, whilst speaking to us of hospitality.
Pursued by misfortune, we stopped be-
fore the threshold Of the Mussulman, and
asked from him, in the name Of God, in
the name Of humanity, in the name Of
his religion, hospitable asylum or free
passage. The Turkish government had
entire liberty to receive us or not. Il
had the right Of saying--I will give you
shelter in prison, or in some distant
place where you will be detained and
strictly guarded. This is the hospitality
which Turkey offers you. lfit does not
please you, hasten your departure, rid US
of your embarrassing presence. stsN
This was not said to us. .sa gaEl
The Sublime Porte deigned to open
to us its shellering tent; il eutreated US
TO cross the threshold, and swore by its
God and lis faith that it would grant us
hospitality and safe asylum. We trust
ed ourselves 10 the honor Of the Turks,
We eat of their bread and Of their salt;
we reposed under their roof. We prayed
10 God to bless them, and we offered
them our everlasting gratitude. And
Hungarians keep their word.
You offered US hospitality, and gave us a
prison; you swore 10 US that we should
meet with an asylum, and we have found
banishment. God will Judge, and God
is just. = 81
AS for myself and my companions in
misfortune, | feel bound TO declare before
God and humanity, that we are reduced
to that pitch of despair at which men
take counsel Of their honor, regardless of
the consequences or Of the scandal Of
collisions which may be provoked, de-
termincd to die rather than submit 10 a
prolongation Of their sufferings."
II was recently stated that the Sultan
had liberated Kossuth and his compan-
ions; but the gratifying intelligence is
moi confirmed. Their continued deten-
ton is high-handed outrage upon the
laws of nature and of nations; and as
such, may and should be taken cogniz
ance of by any civilized Government
which feels disposed to claim from its
neighbors arespect for those laws. Kos.
suth has expressed wish to come to the
United States, and Congress, by joint
resolution, has placed National vessel
at his disposal, for his conveyaHce hither
We hope our Government will urge upon
the Ottoman Porte, in the most earnest
manner, the propriety Of his immediate
release. Toledo Republican.
