RE- The Boston Bee thus speaks Of the
great States.nan;-"Iomi is one of the best
of'men, and as able as good. Sull there are
not wanting men, and the more especially at
Washington, who improve every opportunity
to malign and beiounl him. All who know
Tom are well aware that he is one of natures
nobeman, and one who stands upi proud
aud chivalrous manhood"
The New York Tribune thus remaks -
"Any man who is malicious and maievolent
enough to assai Tom Corwin. and charge
him with corruption or dishonesty. ought to
have his mouth sewed up. The Secretary
is human, and therefore has his faults but a
man of nobler nature or one more quick to
recognize or more prompt to spurn every
suggestion of dishonesty, don't live. He has
fairly earned and richly deserves the sobri-
quet of glorious Tom Corwln!' May he
live thousand yearsl"

The following beautiful lines from the pen
Of ''Cora," compare favorably, in our iudg-
.ment, with many the best pieces Of Amelia,
Alice Cary and Grace Greenwood. They are
elfusons of soul filed with the emotions Of
deep and genuine poetic feeling Though
there are some things in the piece which a
Pope might criticise, yet we venture the as
serton, that, of the kind, there are few who
can produce better piece. So great is our
pleasure in reading the admirable little poem,
that it leaves no disposition in our heart to
End fault Undoubtedly "Cora"is natur-
al poetess, and may,by industry and the study
Of the best authors in polite literature, secure
for herself a very enviable fame.
"Wave afler wave breaks on the shore,
But the sea is deep as it was before:
Hopes after hopes from the bosom sever
But the heart hopes on unchsnging ever;
That the pillows heave with restless motion,
Is the very life of the throbbing ocean:
And hopes that from to day ups,art,
Are the swelling wave beats of the heart!"
Down deep within the dark sea-waves--.
mid the treasured wealth of ocean caves,
Where amber sands are cleaning:
There tossed and swept from side to side,
With the rush and wbir Of changing tide,
little shell lay dreaming.
Dreaming that all the while its song,
Was born the rolling sea along
That when the tide-waves beating,
With stormy rush distant lands
lis music aye repeating!
And that men listened wond'rngy,
To the fairy voice in the restless sea,
And it never knew, ah, never!
That its voice lost on the distant shore,
In the winds wild moan, aud the breakers roar,
That meet in strife forever!
Thus day by day and year by year,
The sea-shell shed its pearly tear,
White ioam-sprtes DER it eaping,
Bore ever the sunbeans upon their breast,
Away to some realm of wild unrest,
With blows onward sweeping.
Is the poets hsart like the tiny bell
HIS dream like that of the sighing she'll
Down in the depths of oceau2
Do his songs 20 forth on the waves life,
Unheard, unechoed, amid the strife.
or stormy Winds commotion?
All yes, for the sea OF life is wide,
Disturbed by the ever changeful tide,
or passions strong emotion!
And who shall hear mid the ceaseless chime
OF the waves that break on the shores of Time,
One lonely hearts devotion!

MAINE LAW.

"The reasons for absolute prohibition
otner words, for the Maine law--may be brief
Iy summed up as foilows:
lst 1t is impartial There can be no pre-
tence that sdch a law Furnishes little sins and
sinners, but gives impuni'y to rich and res
pectable vice. 1t has at least the merit oI
treating all offenders exactly alike.
2. II rests on clear moral basis Its fun.
damental assumption is the immortality and
evil of the Liquor Traffic. 1t does not, ike
our license laws, assume that this traffic is
perniclons or dangerous, and then give any
one dispensation to pursue it on payment Of
ten dollars 1t does not pronounce the traffic
immoral, and then attempt to confine it to
men Of good moral character. But contem-
plating and appreciating the great fountain oil
crime, pauperism, and misery, it makes man
ly, earnest, and straight forward effort to seal
it up and stay its bitter waters forever.
3. II can be enforced License laws, espe-
clally IN great cities, never can be; they rest
on no moral basis and appeal to no moral SEN
tlment. No one can render moral reason
why, if a man who can afford to pay ten dol
lars for a license should be allowed to sell, a
man who lacks and cannot scrape together
that sum should not be- Thousands are now
selling without license in cur city, but those
who know the fact will not complain Of them,
while those who would complain OF them
have no means Of distinguishing them from
the licensed If our license laws were m cant
to be obeyed, they would at least require
every seller to display bis license conspicuous
ly in the room where his traffic was carried
on; but being intended only as blind, and
an anodyne for the public convenience, they
are construed accordingly.
a. The Maine Law ensJodies no neaO prtn-
etple 1t is simply the application to the in
sldous poison, Alcohol, Of the common law
principle which regulates the general dispcn-
sation of poison. No man is now at liberty
to sell Arsenic or Prussic Acid except to per-
sons who he has good reason to believe, con-
template an innocent and salutary use of it.
The fact that many imbibe Alcohol in ignor-
ance Of its poisonous character is an add-
tional reason for stringent public cguards
against its pernicious SALE
5. The Maine Law does its work. True,
it does not stop all selling, any more than
our laws against theft, forgery, aud murder
prevent absolutely the perpetration of those
crimes; but it renders the traffic infamous,
and dooms it to secrecy, stealth, and darkr ess.

EXTENSION OF SLAVERY" Mr.. Chairman,
the time is past when the question of slavery
in any territory about to be acquired, can
produce the agitation and danger which has
arisen from it, The principle is settled by
the compromise, that the citizens of such ter
ritory, at the time, shall determine for them
selves this question, and it the North should
by its greater energy and aptitude for emf
grafton acquire The popular power, and the
right under the rule SO settled By the compro-
mise, to declare any territory seeking atmis-
sion into the Union, free, the South could not,
If II would, under the Constitution and laws,
and would not if it could; resist measure
beneficial to the whole nation. The South
should be satisfied with the guarantees of the
Constitution and the laws, for their peculiar
institution; and even if it be reccdlng, if the
conditions of human society, and the pro sress
of free States initiate against il; il with the
protection thrown around 1t by the organic
law OF the land, it be yet in its own nature

patriotism of a good citizen, in seeking TO i'm
