Progress.

The age is onward! We can la6k
back now like onewhGs having gained
the summit Of a hill retraces with
4 his eyes the toilsome leagues be has
4 travelled. Welmay look back and
behold the monuments, the memen-
toes, the dangers and disasters of
the thd; and whilst we note all these
as wa lfnings for our future progress,
We yet sit not down to survey them,
but casting a single! look behind,
press once more boldly forward.
For it is in vain to look back.
The Attainable is only-before US.
The Past is a ladder of sand, each
round of which has crumbled beneath
our feet; and should We pause, or turn
to descend, the shades of uncertainty
and ruin would dencompass us. There
is haught in the circle of being,
naught in the range Of matter, that
lis not an example of the great prin-
ciple of Progression, and continual
cyf.e of eVergrowing results
Naught is ended for nothing dies.
Dissolution is antagonistic to all ma
terial or spiritual things, and retro
gressioh, ifnature in reality discloses
such phenomenon, is but transient,
and incident towards renewed pro-
gress. A particle of dust, could we
trace it through all the ramifcaticns
of its utility, would lead US through
a Labyrinth Of the nightiest words.
From the sand whifl that bore it
across the desert, to the column
which held it as an integral of Pal
myra's splendor; from the fallen and
shiyered column, to the tomb of
some desert Emir; from the tomb of
the sands once more; from the sands
to the crucible; and from the cruel
bic to the glass which forms the very
in which / now dip my pen;
how simple the transitiop-the/ pro
gression-for all is progression that
is motion, since motion must effectu-
ate results. A.
Be not thou cast down. O little
man which art as sand-grain in the
of motion? Thou art in
tegrally of the worlds life, and
stehgth and heautyl Through the
crucible must thou pass in thy day,
bat thy destiny ever preserves
thee UtilityGn the eve of nature is
the keeping Of her laws. Be thou,
then what thy nature impelleth thee,
md thy symmetric life is found.
Eh3u u shalt make harmony, if thou
fans but touch The right string in
Ehe great harp Of humanity.

The Garth has treasures fair and bright,
Deep buried in her caves;
And OCEAN hdeth many gem,
With his blue curling waves.
Yet MOI within his bosom dark,
Or meath the dashing foam,
Lies there a treasure equalling
A world Of love at home.
True sterling hap ppiness and joy.

Nor can il yield "a pleasure like
A merry iireside.

"A sure relief TO hearts that droop
Meath sorrows heavy wing,
Though care and trouble may be mino,

4 PrediCament or Dilemma.

Gentlemen: The policy of a confederacy or fra
ternity is dictated by necessity existent in the
world for individual and common preservation
and protection; and for mutual or reciprocal sup
port and comfort.
That this is law of nature is proven by the
practice and habits, everywhere, of men, beasts,
BIRDS fish and insects. Instinct intuition, expc-
rience and intelligence incucate this erigency for
safety and security. While this universal law in
the economy of men and animals, is sanctioned by
reason and morality, as an inherent and infeasibe
right, other combinations exist and form for prey,
for plumber, for devastation and destruction, which,
as they provoke natural and justfable resistance
and vndication and incur retaliation and retribu-
ton, reason and morality condemn as a wrong an
impiety and crime against justice and equity, and
as an indiscreet and insane policy. But Incidence
and improvidence profession and protligacy often
occasion its temporary and transient convenience
and commodity, though obnoxious to disaster and
ruin, to supply want or restitution, to appease
sensuality and rapacity.
Among gregarious animals confederate men,
therefore, a7sympathy Of sentiment and a congeni
atty Of interest are requisite to establish sal
utary, permanent and durable society friendship
and amity. External pressure and danger, and in
ternal compatibility and capacity, commonly die
tates and determines the and progress of such
communities. To confederate with natural and
practical enemies, is egregious folly, which is
infectious and pestlential in its consequences, like
the hen in the parable, that nurtared a brood of
serpeRts The creed of the Northern States from
the formation of the Constitution of the United
States, is hostile to republican principles and equal
ity in government. Their policy is eongenial with
that of England favorable at least an oligarchy
and capable of compatible alliance with the mon
arches of Europe, or elsewhere theiramaIqazua-
ton with the negro Southern sLoee and their in
vasicn of the rights and property of the South,
compromit the existence of the latter destroy their
stores of substance reduce them to poverty and
Jeggary and subject them, without quarter, to an
indscriminate massacre, regardless of condition,
age or sex. They have given thus, and by an IN
fraction of the compact of the Union equally Just
and sufficient cause of war to the South as Mexico
did to the United States. These, then, are insu-
perable obstacles, insurmountable difficulties, in
congruous principles and incompatible terms, to a
much longer continuance of Union and fraternity
between the North and the South. For defence
and resistance to foreign invasion and encroach-

TniOniSDl,

The following remarks of the Richmond Enquirer
indicate that Virginia beginning to suspect that there
turks under the mask of Unonism, more than they
bargained for when they enlisted in that cause In
the first place they found themselves absorbed into
Whggery, and they now find Whiggery melting into
Sewardism. But let the Enquirer speak for itself:
In view of tie past of the Wings, and their
present ill-dsguised movements would, in the
graphic language of resolution adopted by the De-
mocracy of Perquimans county, North Carolina, call
on all true Democrats to be 'watchul of the Proteus
like forms about to be assumed by the Wing Fede

them; to dstrust the Greeks when they bring us

dar6s of the Gbeonites Let us be sure not to be de-
ceived. y

should not be deceived by this ncessant cry of othe

Hamilton Fish by Mr.. Flmore's organ, the Republic
