The following are Senator Clemens remarks
upon the intervention resolutions in reply to
General Cass:-
Mr.. Clemens said there was much in the
speech Of Mr.. Cass which lac could not endure,

HOW suALLIwOO HER {!

How shall l WOO her: Twill stand
Beside her when she sings,
And watch her fine and fairy hand
Fit DER the quivcrirC strings;
And will tell her-I have heard,
Though sweet her song may be.
A voice whose every whispered word
Is more than song to me.
How shall WOO herr I Will gaze,
In sad and silent trance,
On those blue eyes, whose liquid rays
Look love in every glance;
And l will tell her, eyes more bright.
Though bright her own may beam,
viii shed their breaking spell 10 night
Upon mc in my dream.
How shall / WOO herr WI try
The charm Of olden time,
And swear by earth, and sea, and sky,
And rave in prose and rhyme.
And will tell her-when bent
Ny knee in other years,
was not half so eloquent,
could not speak for tears.
How shall WOO her? will bow
Beside her at the shrine,
And pray the prayer, and vow the vow,
And press her lips to mine.
And viii tell her, when she parts
From PASSIONS thrilling kiss,
That Memory to many hearts
Is dearcr far than bliss.
In vain, in vain! The Tyre Is mute,
Its chords are snapt in twain;
You cannot string that silent lutte,
Nor clasp those chords again.
Loves toll, l know, IS light cost,
Loves perjury little sin,
But hearts which lose what ! have lost,
What have they left 20 win?

presided. The Attorney General was present
and made an able speech
After Mr.. Crittenden's speech, 2 number Of
toasts were offered and replied to, by Mr. Rav-
ley Of Va, Justice Wayne Of the Supreme Court,
General Scott, Senator Stockton, Father Ritchic
and G. P VI, Custiss. The speeches were gen
orally against the intervention doctrine.
NJ. Baylcy concluded his speech by alIudinc.

at Yorktown, where the revolution was ended.
and said the contributions for material aid"
and expenditures for the gratifcation.of a man
who never visited our shores except for applause
and glory, would have raised a monument to
mark that spot......Justice Wayne remarked that
this Congressional Banquet in honor of Wash
ington, would have the effect to rouse in this
American people feeling against the sophis-
tries Of Intervention. Gen. Scott, in his speech
paid tribute 70 the gallant services rendered
by volunteers in the Mexican and ether wars.
The last toast was:
HterrelAon We are not to be deceived bv ars-
ful definitions: cur own true policy is frianJsi,
To this Mr.. Toombs responded and speaking
of Washington's policy Of non-intervention and
kossuth's objections to it, and said it was con
! trovorted by chief who deserted the revolution
which he should have died for, and had there
fore no right to be a mcndicant upon cur sym
pathies.
II is remarkable that there is not 9th Regi-
ment of Light Dragons in the English army,
The reason is, that during the Irish Rebellion,
the 9th Regiment, almost 10 man. deserted,
and joined the insurgents. This so exasperated
George III, that he declared 9TH Regiment
should not exist during his reign; and from that
time the number Of the regiments jumps from

nishes the following:-
About year ago Mexican girl, of wealthy
family, was travelling with female relative and
guard Of ten soldiers, through some part of
Mexico. They were attacked by strong party
of Apache Indians, and some of the soldiers
were killed. The females were captured. The
elder one soon escaped, but the girl remained
captive for some time. Her father raised a
large troop of soldiers, and went in pursuit of
her. He came upon the Indians and fought
battle, but as neither party was victorious, he
offered high ransom for his daughter. The
Indians refused to give her up, and sold her to
party of Mexican traders, who were carrying
her into the interior to sell as slave, when MIR.
Bartlett, hearing of them, sent party of SOL
diers to take her. They succeeded, and we are
escorting her to her home. Captain Cremony

the following toast from Washington City to the
Repeal Association then IN existence in Pitts
burg.
IRELAND-The hour approaches when her
glorious name shall be written by the God Of
battles in the blood Of her oRprsssors upon the
scroll of independent Republics.
This same Irish, patriotic synlpathiser is now
in England, not only praising English institu-

militia to defend them from the attacks Of the
continental powers
In 1912 Mr.. Walker was preparing his pam
phlet in favor of the annexation Of Texas, and
was anxious to get all the support he could
for that magnificent enterprise and he succee-

of dollars from English capitalists which ac-
counts for his extrayagant praises OF that Coy

The Japanese Expedition.

An English newspaper has the following COM
ments on the American expedition to Japan, which
has excited an undue attention in Europe from the
erroneous notion that it was designed as hostile
undertaking:
What the English did in China and did badly, the
Yankees are about to do in Japan, and do we'll
Principle would contend that the Japanese have
right to their own country, and to exclude men of
business fit pleases them. But if principle were
attended to, the Yankees would lose a good trade
which carries civilization cabin passenger; and
so the Yankees about to lombard the tea-tray
forts of the Japanese. A compromise of the paIpa-
BILE expediency would lead them to be merciful
possible and only TO effect treaty and a
we did in China. But the real expediency will,
doubtless, persuade them to abolish the Japanese
empire, convert it into Yankee India, and to send
Governor-General over from Washington. We
could have done in China what we had previously
done in India, and we shall repent yet. having for
gotten the good example Our China trade is not
what it ought to be- and, besides, the Chinese still
eat dog-pie. We have got a great Indian trade,
and have nearly abolished Suffice The Yankees,
when they have conquered Japan, will give us a
share of the Japanese trade, just gave them a
share of the Chinese trade And, with trade civli-
cation will advance and the honorable members
who Is clinch in Congress- will, doubtless, pass an
early resolution to the effect that suicide is immoral
and that therefore, the police have orders to abol-
ish the custom of Japan-viz suicide-and encour-
age duelling.
