good article, can safely rely on a strong and sub

ment. The Fingers are bent from young white oak
and hickory, and have set screws for adjusting the
Fingers to the Sheath. By this arrangement they
can be altered in less than a minute, and no dan
ger of losing wedges, &C., which are generally used
on the common article. Each Finger has a sepa-
rate wire running through the Sheath, making it
strong and independent of the other. We can

Rejoice to think that thou art mine,

When Sol in grandeur climbs the sky,
And rears bis throne above
Oh then my heart will longing fly
To rest with thine, my love.
And when, o~xulting, twilight sings,
Ger day lights swift decline,
1ts tuneful zcphyrs shall not bear
One sigh from me but thine.

Amongst the admirable resolutions adopted BY the late

tolerance and hostility TO foreigners which deserves to be
especially noticed This organization met by the In
diana democracy in the bold and defiant spirit with which
it becomes the democracy everywhere to rpe ndiou
and so dangerous effort to distract and weaken ou
party. The national democracy can never yield to sucl
sentiments those which actuatc this fac
ton and democrats who do their duty in every State viii
repudate all association with it in the spirit which ANNA
ted the democrats Of Indiana in the passage Of the follow
ing resolution:
Resoved That the democracy Of Indiana still adhering
TO the constitution of the confederac openly and avowed
condemn any organization secret otherwise that would aim
to disrobe any citizen native adopted of his political civil
or religious liberty"
