Glasgow Female Seminary.

Mr.. EDIToR:-The present week closes
the first session of this Institution under
our management, and it may not be umiss to
remarkto those interested in its well fare, as
well as to the friends of education generally
that it has been pleasant, and under the
circumstances, prosperous one;-and we
have in anticipation an increase of pupils at
the opening of the approaching session,
which will take place next Monday, the I'd
day of February. There will be no vaca-
ton between the sessions; as it is thought
best to have but one vacation, and that in
the summer months. Persons from a dis
tance wishing to patronize the institution
are treasured that there will be no difficulty
in obtaining suitable boarding, as several Of
our best families, have, in view of the inter.
ests of the Seminary, generously offered tc
board those who may wish to be connected
with the school, until the contemplated
boarding house will be ready for occupancy
All the branches Of good education are
thoroughly and practically taught, as well a,
French, Drawing and Painting in the various
styles, and Music on the Piano and Guitar
With a continued cooperation of til,
friends of the Seminary, we may reasonabl,
hope to meet their highest expectations.
will add that the health of the pupils during
the present session has been very good ant
that the health of the City was never bette
than at present. Further information if de
sired, may be had by letter or otherwise
from either of the Trustees: r. A. Savage
]. D. Perry or w. D. swinney, Esqrs., o
from the Principal. G. SAVAGE.

The Daily Mail--John G. Miller.

Many of our friends were astonished, that
while we were devising ways and means to
secure Daily mail, that the order came from
the Department, establishing such a mail.
We were not so much astonshed, for we
knew we had representative at Washing
ton, who went there to subserye the inter-
ests of his constituents, and no sooner did
he understand their wants and rights, than
they were promptly and personally laid
before the Department, and the order was
issued, for the Daily to this place, and an
additional weekly trip to Brunswick. The
Department, with the information before it,
did not feel authorized to extend the Daily
to Richmond--but we doubt not the neces-
sary information will soon be there, and a
Daily mail established on the north side Of
the River, to St. Joseph. We trust the citi-
zens on the route will move early and Wig
orously, and forward their views to some Of
our Representatives. We have the aid Of
Capt. Carson in the matter, who has been
over the entire route, very recently.
The Daily mail to this place will go into
operation in afcw days.
Individually, and on behalf of our readers
and citizens generally, we return thanks tc
Mr.. MILLER for his timely and prompt at,
tention to cur interests.

OBITUARY.

''Oh why should death be linked with ferS
A single breath-a low drawn sigh
Can break the ties that bind us here
And watt the spirit TO the sky"
Death hath not fears for those who prepare for
his comng-and many there are who look forward
to the "single BREATH" slow drawn sgh," which
shall "waft their spirits to the sky'' without fear
Such was the case with her to whose memory and
virtues these lines penned as an humble tribute:
Mrs. SARAH G. PEYToN, who departed this life on
Tuesday night, the Goth inst, after brief illness,
aged 81 years. To within a few hours of her dis
solution, she was not thought dangerously i'll, and
when informed that she must soon die, she received
the information with composurc, and expressing
entire confidence in her readiness to meet the sum.
mons, she counseed her family to live that they
might be reunited IN Heaven. She was member
of the Christian Church, and in her life and death
exemplfed the convicting and happy results Of
christianity. Mild and charitable by nature, the
afflicted and needy found in her true friend,
ready to console or assist; and viewed in all tho
relations of her natural sphere the only regret is,
that too few like her are left. Her earthly pilgrim
age has ended-her body has been consigned to the
tomb-her gentle spirit, we trust and believe is in
the abodes of bss-hcr memory is embalmed 10
the hearts Of all who knew her, and in her case,
death was not "linked with fear.'' -

dar of Lebanon, dime or million of dollars,
from any place, to any place, where civiliz-
ed beings dwell. When we compare this
state Of things with that twenty years ago,
when to obtain letter from the continent
of Europe was an achievement worthy of
extensive notoriety,) the mind is ovcrwhelm-
cd with the stupendous march of progress,
invention and organization. But after all,
the world is not half put TO rights yet; and,
we may look out for greater and more use
full organizations and inventions in the Fu-
ture, than the past has ever furnished.
Gen. Cass has been rcmorselcssly sold BY
the Locofoco politicians of this city. Poor
Cass; it is too bad. They will elect dele
gates to the Baltimore Convention who will
hurrah for Cass and Butler, but who will
never cast a vote for the great Mischigander.
What makes the affair still richer, is, the
fact that Douglass is being sold in similar
manner. He thinks the New York delega-
ton will fall back on him; but they wont dc
any such thing. As soon as l can get hold
of all the facts, will send you a rich &C.
count of the whole affair. John Van Buren,
is working the wires.

of this most estimabe young lady, the writer of this

will be wanting to imprint upon their hearts the re-
collection of her virtues, where it will ever remain
bright and beautiful example for their imitation.
To her bereaved and deeply afflicted family, but
especially to her excellent parents, what word OF
consolation can be spoken, soothing as the assu-
rance that she died in full prospect of that rest that
remaineth for the people of God, through faith in
Jesus Christ.

Platte District.

Judge Birch seems TO be the decided ia
vorite in the Platte District, and it is thought
he will procure the nomination for Congress.
Five counties have declared for him, and
he is the second choice OF others, whose first
choice seems to stand no chance. Norton
and King are the next strongest. We have
understood, privately, from that District,
that manyof Stewards friends and the friends
of the Hannibal and St. Joseph Rail Road,
will insist on running him, independent OF
conventional nominations or party conside-
rations. We know not how true this is,
but merely give it as rumor of the day.
Should Birch get the nomination, we see it
suggested that King will not yield, and it is
not improbable that he would encourage
Stewart, or assume such position himself,
We see no indication as TO what the Wings
are about in that District.

From the New York Experss.
Mr.. Clay On Intervention.

The interview between NJ. Kossuth and
Mr.. Clay we regard as the most important
that has taken place at the seat of Govern
ment or elsewhere; and if the words of a
man who has devoted forty years to public
service, in peace and in war, at home and
abroad, are to have any effect, they must
bring the enthusiastic and unthinking part
of our Government in to the whirl pool of
European politics:
"NIr. Clay has impaired his views face
to face to the Hungarian chief. They are,
for America, 'Non-intervention, 'Non-inter-
vention,' thousand times 'Non-interven-
ton by the United States in the politics
and policy Of Europe.
Mr.. Cass introduced NJ. Kossuth to Mr..
Clay at half past two o'clock on Friday, and
the Senator from Kentucky received him
standing and in most atlectionate manner.
For half an hour and more the two were TO-
gether, and Mr.Clay declared that no greater
calamity could befal this Government than
the doctrines of intervention as proposed by
M. Kossuth. He therefore earnestly depre-
Gated any such policy. The vital principle
Of this country, he said, rested upon its re-
publican character, as seen in the capacity
Of the people for self-government, and in its
practice of combining its action to its own du-
ties. Our example was one of Christian
progress, and the United States, as the only
living Republic and example of mans capa-
billity for self-government, was bound TO en-
courage progress and prosperity on this con-
tnent. All this would be endangered
and destroyed by foreign wars, and with
them all hopes Of free institutions. These
he said, were the sentiments OF a dying man
who for lifetime had struggled for free
DOM"
The correspondents of Journal of Com
merce and Courier and Enquirer confirm
this view Of the case:
an. Kossuth did not combat Mr.. Clay's
! position. He confined himself to comment
ing the condition OF Hungary and the situa-
ton Of France, which he believed would
provoke a civil war and perhaps general
revolution.
"At parting, Mr.. Clay rose and bade Kos
suth farewell forever, with much emotion,
wishing him God speed in his efforts for
Hungarian independence.
IN. Kossuth said that he should pray
God daily for Mr.. Clay's restoration tc
health. Both were deeply moved. Only
four spectators were present.
"Mr. Clay will yet speak or write his
sentiments on the subject of intervention.
The effort to-day will probably retard him
somewhat, but he has otherwise rather gain
ed during the last few days.
an. Kossuth's interview with Mr.. Clay
was most affecting. Mr.. Clay stood erect
and said; "A dying man, oppose your doc
trine of intervention"

Mn. EDIToR;--The Wings of Randolph
are to hold meeting in this place on Satur-
day the 18th February, to appoint delegates
to State Convention, to nominate a Gov
ernor, Lieut.. Governor, Auditor, ATTORNEY
General, &c. 1t appears 10 be the opinion
ofsome, that the delegates will be left free
to vote for whom they please, as our stand
ard bearers in the approaching contest, and
l believe that to be the best course; for |
have not the least doubt of the wings Of Ran
dolph being willing to concentrate their
force, upon any one of the distinguished in
dividuals in the wing ranks, who have been
spoken of in connection with the Office of
Governor, whether it be Doniphan, Rollins,
Wood, Winston, Anderson, Broadead or
Watkins; my own individual preference is
for that eloquent and able champion in the
wing ranks, Col. A. w. Doniphan, of Clay,
for the reason that believe his talents to be
equal 10 any emergency that might arise in
administering the affairs of State,-and from
the fact, that he is the most effective public
speaker that have ever heard; consequent
y would stand the best chance of being cleo
ted. Though notwithstanding my prefer
ence, like many others who prefer him, we
are willing 10 support any good and true
Wig, whom the convention may select As
to the place ofholding the State Convention,
this countyis decidedly in favor of BOON
WILLIE, because they believe it the most ell
igible point, and consequently would insure
larger delegation from all parts of the
State. believe it is the unanimous voice
of all the wings in this section, that the in
deiaiigable and talented JOHN G. MIL
/ LER, be again our standard bearer in this
, congressional district, therefore there is nc
; need of district convention; as it appears
, from all the signs in other parts Of the dis
= trict, that the same sentiments prevail in re-
, gard TO Congressman.
7 The Democrats are very well united in
this county, but think if the wings are
2 well organized, and bring out their best
r men, that we can elect wing Representatives
, and perhaps other county officers. Among
I those now spoken of as candidates for Rep
e resentatives in different sections, | would
/, mention Golden Williams, G H. Burckhartt
7 Thos.P P. Ruby, Benz. Haley, C. B. Stuart, J.
F. Wight, W. S. Burton, N. Dysart, ]. G
| McCampbell and II. C. Collins, any Of
? whom would make good Representatives
4 and believe carry the whole strength of the
f wing party, and be calculated to unite then
on other wing candidates for other offices
: at all events, the wings, as far as have
heard an expression-are resolved to give
, the Democracy in this section, the best fight
they can, and ifthey fail in gaining a victory
they can only lament their want Of more
r grape. Respectfully,
RANDOLPH.

which holds diamonds of purer worth

when the high and holy feelings of
thought has been combined, the flow of
beautiful language from such a heart,
will be in accordance with the glorious
principles of liberty and truth, and
then you will be saluted with, yes, you
are right! The wrong education of
children makes the world what it is--a
bundle of inconsistencies, a state of sla-
very, disease and death-a state where
hope often sckens into despair, where
thousands of human beings are search.
ing with more than anxious zeal, for the
pure streams of happiness and peace
where confidence is seldom safe and
where woman is toy or slave. Yes,
it Is speaking the trrth into dull ears
perhaps, but it is no less the grand diff
fculty. Women who are the mothers
of the world are only reckoned as toys
or slaves for we go the whole figure in
our case, no matter what may be our
color, woman is the toy or slave. Es-
cape from this charge if you can, ye
who would pake laws for US, and tell
US that you hold our destinies in your
hands Oh! yes; this is well enough
for women say they. We are such
poor. weak lnortals, that men must make
chains for US to make US only weaker
still. And do you wish to know, vain
man, that yourselves are the cause oI
your own trouble, but we acknowledge
your mothers are to blame, for they have
trained you up to be their masters, and
Of course, you will lash them well fol
their pains.
