FRENCH SPOLIA TfONS-A VETO.
bsrrtspsbdence Of The N. Y. Tribune.

Ssutspspdenee Of The N Y. Tribune.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 4, 1855.
Within day or two il has been widely whis-
psYed that the President will not approve tho
French Spoliation BILL If it shall pass the Senate,
Of which passage no doubt IL entertained. There
h. however, little really known on the subject of
tie veto. For the President is constitusionaly
variable and irresOlute, and when man does not
AilseH really know what he shall do in given
emergency, but postpones his final judgment: till
4 occurs, how can another undertake in advance
u decide how he will then act All opinions
uDon the Presidents action in the case are there
fore purely speculative, and are worth just about
~ much coming from one quarter as another.
A. q legislator, the President voted against the
lill. But as the right of Congress to decree the
payment Of the claims 10 objectionable, and a.
Ne Treasury 10 overlooking, it would involve him
h no inconsistency Of action, and the Govern
pent in no embarrassment, were be to defer his
Individual judgment to the decision of the major
~. The President, too, IL not insensible to the
hfuerces Of private friendship, and these, if we
are rightly informed, will have a strong FREEDOM
nance on the side Of his approval Of the measure.
Ard this, we believe is about al that can be said
bearing directly upon the question of the veto. In
The social thermometer of Washington they are
cooled, or intensified to the boiling pitch, accord
hs to cxcumstaDces. give them to you at me-
dunn Temperature. J.sP

IT'S SWEET TO DREAM IN THE WIN
Ail TIER OF LIFE

IEIL UT LIT
II Is sweet to dream in the winter Of life,
When the hoary head is covered with snow;
When the mist of years has dimmed the sight,
And the feeble form is bending low.
That old man sits in his easy chair; Ja
Oft DER his face a sad smile will creep;
For though wrinkled deep with age and care,
Calm, and placid it is while he is asleep.
For he dreams of his home, and the loving one
He took to his heart in his manhoods pride; /;
Boldly he baffled with lifes raging storm;
For she ever stood firm and true at his side.
But now she has gone to her long, long home,
Be- md distant and unseen shore.
She siiiilingly whispered as she beckoned him on
Not lost; +; but gone before" .,
The dear little ones, that were life to him,
Have been laid away in clay y-cold bed.
No wonder, then, that his eyes grew dim
With burning tears for the early dead
The earth, now to him, is dark, and drear;
He knows not its joys; he fears not its strife; {;
Visions of youth can not fail to cheer. .

Young men should remember that tall shirt
collar, with every other exterior appearance, is
not much noticed in enlightened times like the
present. The girls, in these days, look to
mind and manners; although some dear, loving
simpletons look to money, means, carriage-rldes
and extravaganza. AS we hold a little interest
in the opposite branch Of the first grand dvis-
ion Of nature, (woman) we take this chance TO
say that the less the airs, the less the cares.
But why speak of airs! the world is one huge
mass of deception, wrong, folly and humbug,
and he is most priced who braves the battle and
comes off victorious.

CHARAcTER.-The character of the young
men of community depends much on that OF
the young women. If the latter are cultivated,
intelligent and accomplished, the young men
will feel the requirement that they themselves
should be upright and gentlemanly, and refined
but if their female friends are trihing, frivolous
and silly, the young men will be found to be
dissipated and worthless. But remember, al.
ways, that a sister is the best guardian of
brothers integrity. She is the surest inculca-
tor of faith in female purity and worth. As
a daughter, she is the true light of the home.
The pride of the father is often centered in his
sons, but his affection is expended on his daugh-
ters.
