A CHEERFUL HEART.-l once heard young

me is like the shining sun, for it always gladdrns
me with cheerful look a merry or cheerful
eountenance was one Of fthe things which Jeremy
Tavor said lis enemies and prosecutors could
not take away from him. There are some per-
sons who spend their lives in this world as they
would spend their time if shut up i'll dungeon.
Everything is made gloomy and forblddlng.-
They 60 mourning and complaining from day to
day, that they have so little, and are constantly
anxious least what little they have should escape
out Of their hauds. They look always upon the
dark side, and can never enjoy the good that is
present, for the evil that is to come. This IS not
religion. Religion makes the heart cheerful, and
when its large aud benevolent principles are en-
ercised, men will b. happy ill spite otrh"nrs'vcs
The industrious bee does not stop t" complain
that there are so many poisonous flowers and
thony branches in his road, but buzzrs Oh, sclec-
ting the honey where he can find it, and passing
quietly by the places where it is not. There Is
enough in this world to complain about and lind
fault with, if men have the disposition. We Of

a cheerful spirit and heart topraise God for his
mercies, we may.walk therein with great COM
fort and come to the end Of our journey in peace.

From every murmur free,
The blessings of thy grace 'mpart,
And make me live to thee.

The WH1e PLATFORM following partic-
ulars Of the contemplated platform Of the Wing
party We find in the telegrap hic correspondence
of the Charleston Courier. 1t would hardly be
fair to comment in advance Of the action Of the
Convention on the report but the inter- olation
of the caucus platform promises anything but
fnaity to the compromise:
- FRIDAY AFTERNooN.--Th Convention reas-
sembled at FIVE o'clock this evening, when the
Committee ON framing Platform reported the
resolutions adopted OH Wednesday by the South
ern Delegates in Caucus, with bat slight verbal
changes i'll the first aud seventh The eighth
was altered to read as follows:
+ )" Resoloed That the series of Acts of the for
ty-frst Congress-the Act known as the fugitive
slave law includel--are received and acluleSced
in by the Wing party Of the United States as Il
settlement in principle and substance Of the dan
gerous and exciting questions which they embrace,
and so far as they are concerned, will maintain
them and insist upon their strict enforcement,
until time and experience shall demonstrate the
necessity of further legislation to guard against
the evasion of the laws Oh the one hand, and
the abuse of their powers on the other, not i'm
pairing their efficiency; and we deprecate all
further agitation of the question thus settled as
dangerous to our peace, and will dlscountenance
all efforts TO continue or renew such agitation,
whenever, wherever, and however the attempt
may be made; and we will maintain this sys-
tenn as essential to the nationality Of the Wing
party and the integrity Of the Union"
The Hon. Rufus Choate Of MASSACHUSETTS, Judge
Anderson of Louisiana, Hon. John NJ. Bolts Of
Virginia, and Others, addressed the Convention
on the question Of adopting the report Of the
Committee In the course of his remarks, Mr..
Bolts denied that he had received letter from
General Scott, but read private letter written
by that gentleman to the Hon. William s. Ar
cher, of Virginia, in which he says that he will
write no letter unless nominated, and that he
will express his views as fully on the slavery ques,
tion as he expressed them to him in a converse
ton few days SINCE But what these views are
il was not stated.

q OF course the only nations who appear to be
importers of cotton are those that have Seaports.
But in some cases the real importers are those
that manufacture. Switzerland, for instance, isa
larre manufacturer. And we commend to the
advocates of direct trade the case Of Switzerland.
She receives hercotton at Havre, in France, which
thus appears to be larger buyer OF American
cotton than is the fact. A bale of cotton Is land
ed at Hayre. 1t is then hauled on common
road and in clumsy wagon four hundred miles
sto Switzerland, and converted into thai hne class
of cotton fabrics called Swiss mus!ins, and hauled
back to Havre, re-shipped to the United States,
and sent into the interior, and sold in Carolina
Alabama, Mississippi and Tennessee, at rates much
cheaper than they could afford to tabricate them
Nav, more than this. The impression generally
prevails in this country that Engl land Is much
greater customer of ours for cotton than Is the
fact. This impression is produced by the reports
of our Shipments to the various European ports,
and those Of England, particularly Liverpool,
stand at the head. But large quantity sent
to Liverpool is sold to the continental manutac-
turers, and hence bale Of cotton frequently @oes
by way of Liverpool to Switzerland, and returns
by the same route Nav, more than that. A
bale Of cotton starts from Mississippi to New Or
leans. thence to New York, thence to Liverpool.
thence to Havre, thence TO Switzerland, thence,
when manufactured, back again by the same
route toethe very plantation where it was pro
duced. The charges for commissions, tranship-
ments al d transportation, are numerous and eno'-
smous, and yet the Swiss rnuslins can be- sold to
the Mississippi planter cheaper than he could
make them. Now the reason of all this would
require more space than wecan now afford, But
the fact that this indirect process of commerce
has been gong on so long, and among men ca
Spable of making all the calculations, and keen
in money making, affords a tolerably far pre-
that there must be powerful induce
ments for indirect trade. We shall examine the
subject more e!aborately in future.
