Dickens, and perhaps equal in the simple pahos Of
the narrative, is the descs ption Of the death of ltd.

THE CLOSE !,

At The close Of this, the Sd day of March,
President Fillmore takes his leave of the Pres
idential Mansion. While his administration has
been marked by serious blunders and rare pee
ulations, few in our humble judgment attribute
bad motives to President Fillmore. His great
faults have been, lack of self-reliance and
statesman like independence. He has suffered
his administration TO be swayed too much by
his Cabinet advisers, who have shewn them
selves notorious in the tricks of politics and the
stratagems of money getting, more than in con-
ferring honor upon the administration and the
country
Gen. Pierce, we think, vii! pursue different
course. One, which will be more in harmony
with the interests of the people, if not with the
feelings and partalties OF politicians one
which will save the treasury, if it does not en-
rich partisan Attorneys and political specula-
tors. Certain it is, that his bold independence
and accustomed self reliance, viii not suffer him
to be intmidated into silence, and thereby ex-
posed to treachery and reproach.
The miners' express. (Dubuque, Iowa) 1849-1854, 1853-03-09

For forty-one bachelors who attain the age {
forty-ihree, there are seventy eight married mer
who do the same. Asage advances, the differ
ence become more striking. AT sixty there
are only twenty two unmarried men alive, fo
ninety-eight who have been married. At sev'
enty, there are ten bachelors to twenty sever
married men, and at eighty, there are nine mar
ried men TO three single ones. Nearly the same
rule holds good in relation to the female sex
Married women at the age of thirty, taking one
with another, expect TO live thirty six years Ion
ger; while for the unmarried expectation of life
is only about thirty years. OF those who attain
the age Of forty five, there are seventy-two la
dies for fifty two single ladies'. These data are
the result Of actual facts, by observing the dit
ference of longevity between the married ane
the unmarried.
The miners' express. (Dubuque, Iowa) 1849-1854, 1853-03-09
APPOINTMENTS TO OFFICE.

Our opponents quite busy just now il
hunting up scraps of the history of the past, i,
order to show that FRANKLIN PIERCE, is exc
cutting the duties oths office should make bu
few removals; in the word, that no man shoule
be removed from office on account OF the pollti.
cal opinions. Among the "reminiscences of the
past, they tell us it is recorded of the Presiden
elect, while in the Senate of the United States
that he made most eloquent speech in opposi
ton to political prescription His words. the
precise language he used, while exposing the
miserable hypocrisy of the HARRISON dynasty
in its wholesale prescription, after obtaining
power, for the avowed purpose of sproscribing
prescription" are quoted to show that he was
then opposed to turning man out of office be
cause he was attached to political party ,ha
differed with him in principles of public po
licy.
Let them not lay this flattering unction to
their souls. FRANKLIN PIERCE, unless we
mistake the man, will remove every Whig in
cumbent to the same extent that former Wing
administrations have prescribed the Democracy.
No Democrat can ask for more; and the uni
versal Democratic party, throughout the length
and breadth of this broad land, will say AMEN
In making his appointments, we have every
reason to believe the new President will not
coniine himself to the parlor Democracy-the
home, apparently Indifferent who lost or who
won in the great fight Cor the supremacy of
principles, through which we have just passed.
But he will look among those who bore the bur-
den in the heat of the day; who, like good men
and true, come out to the rescue of our good old
ship Of State frem the hands of Federal Philis-
tines, who were despoling her of her fair pro-
portions not for the sake Of obtaining office but
for the loye they bore their country. tits from
among such men as these that the new officers
will be selected, and not from the carlp follow
ers, it matters not how long their petitions are
or how large their bundle of recommendations
may be.
Ii has too frequently been the case that the
drones Of the party, the men who have sat
down and calculated the chances--have been
appointed to places of profit and honor, while
the working men, who were equally as compe-
tent, those who have done everything, have
been overslaughed.
Already we hear ofnumbers who were in the
back ground during the late political struggle,
are now foremost in pressing their claims for
the honors and emouments of Office. We trust
that FRANKLIN PIERCE, and his Cabinet, in ex-
tending the patronage of government, will re-
member those who were foremost in the fight
for principle, if they not now first with their
long petitions and huge bundles of recommen
datory letters s-PennSylc0nian.
