the meditations Of the celebrated John Foster.
on the death Of his wife. They will, we doubt
not seem to many as transcript Of their own
thoughts under similar circumstances:

now not inhabitants of the same world-thst

different economy of existence! Whittier is

ly realize to herself the astonishing change
how does she look at herself as no longer in
habiting mortal tabcrnacle-in what manner
does she recOllect her state as only a few weeks
since-in what manner does she think, and feel
and act, and communicate with other spiritual
beings-what manner of vision has she Of God
and the Saviour of the world--how does she
review and estimate the course of discipline
through which she had been prepared for tho
happy state where she finds herself--in what
manner does she look back on death, which she
has SO recently passed through--and docs she
plainly understand the nature of q phenomc-
non So awfully mysterious to the view OfmOr-

with the spirit Of her departed sonland our two
children who died in infancy? Does she in

we shall, after q while, be added to her socie-

such an event, does that appear a long time in

Earnest imaginings and questions like these

and again up close to the thick black veil but
there is no perforation, no glimpse. She that

THANKSGIVING DAY.-The following States
have now made the appointment:

The LADY FRANKLIN.-R. West McClOud, OF
the firm of McClouds & Walker, arrived here
yesterday from the East. He came as far as
Point Douglas by the Lady Franklin. The
boat did not intend to attempt cominn to St.
Paul. She brought no mail the one which she
intended to bring having been forwarded from
Dubuque by land before her arrival there on
the way up.
~ The excitement at Cincinnati at last
accounts was 20 great, growing out of the clos
ing ofcertain private banks and brokers shops,
that mob violence was feared.
NAME OF SIX New SrEAMERs-We under
stand that the Secretary of the Navy has de-
teruined on the following names to be given
to the six steam frigate now being built:
Roanoke and Colorado, at Norfolk Mime

patch to Cleveland, announces the failure Of
this Bank. It's notes are secured by the Ohio
State Stocks, and in every event are good.

The Bank Panic.

The Bank Panic is on the increase, and there
Is no knowing where it will end The Chicago
and Cincinnati Bankers and Brokers are having
i: all their own way. In the latter city, the
sewers of the wind are commencing to reap the
WhIr.wind. The private banking house Of FL
lis Il Sturges, considered one of the most SUBJ
Slant al IN the West, has been compelled to sus-
pend. The house shows assets several hundred
thousand dollars over its liabilities. Mr.. Ellis,
the senior and chief managing partner, died
the day the bank closed.
Goodman Il Co., bankers of the same CITY,
have also made an assignment. The Citizens
Bank of Cincinnati has likewise closed, and the
Canal Bank of Cleveland. We hear. privately,
tia: the Miami iOhio) Valley Bank is also
down, and the Casco Bank, Maine.
The Eanks Of Chicago are not receiving on
deposit any Of the Ohio Banks, except the State
BANK. All the Banks Of Kentucky are refused
except the Bank of Louisville and the Bank Of
Kentucky. The Farmers Joint Stock COMPANY
OF Canada is also thrown out. Col. Swift
banker OF the same city, has issued circular to
his depositors. stating that in addition to the
above, he has thrown out all Virginia Banks,
except Northwestern Bank and Branches ::

Crumbs Of Comfort.

Whenever the Pioneer hears that great and
sovereign State of the Union has "revolted
against the Democracy" this is the epithet ap-
piled, we believe, to the independent action Of
freemen by some Of the Administration jour-
nals) it presses to its bosom the consoling fact
that its party carried Minnesota last month. On
Saturday our neighhOr appeared in quite a
happy mood in again clarifying over Minneso-
ia, while grooming in the same breath over his
party's hard luck in New York, New Jersey,
Michigan, Illinois and Wisconsin. We think
we see Douglas and the President counting
their gains upon the basis of the Pioneer.
Stephen has just arrived in Washington, and
calls upon Frank" at the White House
Well, Steve, what news from the elections :?
How goes your Nebraska project?' why,
sir, am sorry to inform you that We have lost
all the States north of mason and Dixon's line,
but We have carried the Territory of Minneso-
ia" "Faugh!' says Frank, "what good is
that going to do us? 1t has no votes in Con-
gress; and besides, you know very we'll your
Internal Nebraska machine was not in opera
ton up there. The moment they set it going
in that region, away goes Minnesota with the
rest Of them. Get out, you pesky humbugger
want no more to do with you. Minnesota
Territory! Bah!!'
A high-born little Miss Of ten, once at school,
was haunting her lowly but more intelligent
class-mate with sneers at "poor people," my
father lives in four-story brick house. and
yours don't, remarked Miss Arstocracy and
she went on, my father is rich, and yours
isn't; my father keeps carriage and servants
and yours can't afford to ;my father owns ships
and yours DON'T" &c. Indignant at the tam
talizing language of her better-conditioned
friend, the little child of comparative Indulgence
retorted with spirit, But I've got a married
sister that's got baby, and you havn't!"
We hope the Pioneer will take good care of
the little Democratic responsibility" for
which it appears to be acting both in the Ca
pacity ofuncle and godfather 1t will be a
long while before another is forthcoming, and
this one may disown its present relatives be-
fore it is many months older

The Danger of Lying.

The case of Mr. Ullmann, Know Nothing can
didate for Governor of New York, affords a Gu
rious illustration of the danger of lying. Mr..
tilmann, beyond all doubt, was born in the
State of Delaware. His father, however before
his birth, had been resident of Calcutta, and
his mother it is alleged, was native OF India.
Some of the newspapers insist upon setting her
down as pagan and half Hindoo at least but
probably she was of European origin, and q
good Christian-for as fine and accomplished
women, of pure Anglo-Saxon blood, and as
good Christians, too, are born and bred, to our
personal knowledge, in Calcutta, as in any
other part of the world. Mr.. Ullmann, howe
Yer, though by birth an American, was not
born, ii would seem, with wholly American
heart. Like some other pr rsons who make a
great boast of their patriotism and democracy,
If not absolutely ashamed of his country, he
had fancy, nevertheless to rouse the admira-
ton and impress the imaginatons of his asso-
ciates, by presenting himself to them under q
foreign aspect. Some twenty-five or thirty
years ago. while young man at college, he re-
presented himself to his associates, male and fe-
male, as a native of India. Lallah Rookh, and
other oricntalisms. were then the fashion, and
Ullmann doubtless thought that under an ORR
entail garb-whether he actually donned a tur-
ban We are not told-he would be irresistible
to the ladies. Ltd, did he imagine, thought
less young man, how this lie, apparently so
harmless, and not even without certain color
of truth. would suddenly start up quarter Of
century afterwards, like an adder with fork
ed tongue, intercepting with its Kisses his other
wise open path into the chair gubernatorial Of
the State OF New York.
Ii the young Ullman had been content with
merely verbal lie, he might have got off
easier. Words are breath and vanish into thin
air. His idle talk would have been forgotten,
or only so mistily remembered that it could
not have been substantiated: and bold denial
on his part, at which, to judge from the past, he
would not have hcsitated, might easily have
quashed the accusation. But no. Ulmann's
Unsuitable vanity was not to be satisfied with
words merely. So anxious was he to pass for
foreigner and an oriental, that he must needs
write down the lie in the albums of his class
mates. "O!' exclaims the indignant Job,
:" that mine enemy would write book - Mr..
Illmann did not write book. but what
amounts TO the same thing. he wrote in a book
and it would seem in several books and as if
to fulfil all the wishes of his future enemies
he not only wrote in a ook, but he wrote down
lie there. little conscious unhappy youth y
what pitfall he was digging for himself.
We commend this lesson not to politicians
only. but to all young men. Avoid lying. but
especially he careful how you lie upon paper.
The deliberate wickedneSs of such lies makes
them much more enormous; and they can hard
ly fail sooner or later. to meet their due pun

already SIX THOUSAND. with the prospcct of AN

MONTPELIER, vt. Nov. 3.

The Rev. Elazur Williams (the Dauphin) is
now here for the purpose of prosecuting the
claims OF the Caughnawaga Tor st. Regis) In
dians.
This tribe claim to have for hunting ground
all tHat part OF Vermont lying north of Otter
Creek, aud watercd by streams emptying their
waters into Lake Champlain, and never to have
ceded it away. This territory comprises nearly
one-half of the State. and covers its most valu-
able agricultural por tions. The report ofthis
claim is now being printed for the use of the
Legislature, and can give you the substance
of it in few days. 1t proposes for the State
to pay the Indians for the lands. Although the
Vermonters are opposed to "squatter sovereign
ty" in Nebraska, they will undoubtedly think,
in their own case, that possession is nine points
of the law.
Mr.. Williams face, though quite intelligent,
certainly bears the indications of "bow- and ar
row bloOd' about the eyes and nose. Howcv-
er, it is pleasing to think that we have Bour-
bon among US.
