ADA'S SAD FATE.

BY the Late Philo Henderson of Charlotte. n &.
On the green banks of Cata~b ba
Once there lived beaut-ous maiden.
Stainless as the flower at sunset
With the t,eWS of evening laden.
Gentle as the Nest"ind blowing
Was her souls unearthly feeling,
Softer than the StreaInlet flowIn.
Came her words that soul revealing.
High the breathin.s of her spirit
In the radiance brightly beaming,
OF that land it would inherit
When it ceased lis earthly dreaming.
On the green banks of CataWba
Died that rare and radiant maiden,
When the erH doys came on her
And her heart with grit o'trfuden.
Died the oictim Of deiusiott
EOi DIS, that ,ie'.T t'cre iyHe be/ffc1n2,
Words that iiI,rd her souf with august
While her bi eak ing heart deceisin2,
Though her heart was 6i:SAfed, brOHen,
CaIuiiv passed away that maiden,
Dying, leaving ne'er a token
Telling how her heart was laden.
On the green banks of Catawba.
Never more ..ill sit the maiden,
Gazing on the laughing water
With the leaves oil autumn laden.
Never more will sun-lt bIilow
Glance in gladness down before her
For she sleeps beneath the willow
Aud the flowers are springins Ger her.
Sadly sorro.ving, wand',in- lonely
Mourns for her my ssnI despai,ing,
And my heart that toved her only
Ever to her graves repairing
.NcreT mare viii sounds of gfaaaess
Pour their music sNeetiy Ger me
But forever strains of sadness
Tell me of her nsournfui story.

SHIPPING CoAL.-Many of the coal ship
pers Of Richmond, Va. have been. aud
are, exporting coal 20 Havana, and other
tropical climates. packed i'll large hogs
heads. which, upon their arrival at the
destined ports. are cnptled. filed with
sugar and mo!asses, and re-exported to
the United States. This is new idea,
and causes vast saving to both manulac-
turers and consumers, as formerly it was
the custom TO export the stases aud hoops,
and have the .hossheads put together Oh
the plantations, where coopers' wages are
much higher than here; saving in that and
likewise in the tran>rorta:ior, which has
generally been considered an important
item III our commerce..

WASHINGTON March II


SEsATr.-The Senate was in executive
session few muments yesterday. About u
dozen nominations have been sent in and re-
fcrred, bu: none were definitely acted upon,
aud are therefore strictly conid initial.
1t is believed that Kennedy Supcrinten-
dent q! the Census, will be retained, as the
work s drawing 10 close.
The applications for office under the Post
Office Department, from every section of the
country, are innumerabc
The debate between Messrs. Clayton and
Douglass was quite protrHcted. MIR. Douglass
concluded on the Dulwer treaty, by saving
that although the time had not arrived for
tnnexng any part Of either Mexico or Cen
ira! America. yet that the latter is the "Hall
way House" on the high road to California,
and the man who thinks that the time will
arrive when the United States will find il
necessary to own the Half way House, must
not be set down as madman. He was not
disposed to hasten this view Of the Demo-
cratic principles under Democratic admin
istratlun; no man can limit the future pro-
greas oI this nation, and no treaties can
letter the limits Of this great Republic. 1t

ing the notion not to do that which weaknow
III lime it will be compelled to do! WHY
bind ourselves to annex no murc OF Mexico
when every nun knows that the day is fast
approaching when we cannot prevent it!
In conclusion, Mr.. Mason got the floor, g.
the Senate adjourned until Monday.

ture has been about fifty millions of dollars
per annuu.. We venture the assertion, with
entire confidence, that in not single year of
PiERcE's administration, will the expenditures
be less than fifty millions. We said:
"What tax payer is willing to pay three dol
lars where he pays one, for taxes. merely for
the purpose of getting free trade and direct
taxation!"
Now, the people of Ohio pay about two e.
haI millions OF taxes. Ifthe fifty millions
OF national expenses were raised BY direct
taxes, Ohio would be compelled to pay about
one-tenth, or five millions. The total would
be seven and half millions, or three dollars
