has been welded until it has grown hoary
with age. This per6dious bride is q sorcer-
ess, who has all through life, been mingling
slow poison with the meats of herbridegroom,
the world; and has brought upon him Grip
pied limbs and mental infrmities, paralysis
of body and blight of soul. But the conf
dence of the bridegroom in his perfdious
bride is beginning to be shaken We look
with glowing hope and heartfelt pleasure to
the developments and changes of the last
quarter of "a century, and anticipate with joy
the period, when this false jade will be di-
vorced and the world be freed from her pois-
onous blasts, which have, so long swept over
its fair face like withering syrocco, relax
ing the nerves and deadning the sensibilities
of humanity.
And now, to one and all, and the ladies in
particular, we appeal for your hearty coop
eration in this great work, Old and young
wine -bibbers, moderate drinkers, total ab-
stinence men, and all, We want your assist.
ance. We want the Church, her ministers,
officers, people and all, to aid US in assisting
them. Don't hold back to see what course
the community may take with respect to this
course, in order to determine on your duty.
Don't read your dutyin the physiognomy and
action of men, but look rather to your Bibles
and consciences, decide thereon your duty,
"be sure you are right, then go ahead"
We would have you know that this great
log of intemperance is no ordinary log
Every one is either an auxiliary or barrier to
its progress. Every one, who does not assist
in rolling it away, is a stone over which it
must be rolled. There is no other means of
getting cut of its way than to get behind it
and put your shoulder to it, Butthe ladies say
"we are the weaker vessels and cannot assist
in such log rolling" You are greatly mis-
taken. Your influence is much greater per-.
haps than you think. Woman is the queen
of this world, ut whose shrine sturday man
is ever paying homage. Without her, the
world would be dreary waste, and men,
beastly drunkards. Woman's umpire is beau
tlfully expressed by the poet mark the lam
guage:
''The world was sad the garden was wild,
And, man the hermit sighed till aroman smipd."
And we would add that,
We have divorced the old nlcoholic jads,. :-
And sigh for noble woman's genial aid

True success crowns stern endeavors:
Life we know is but span,
: One day less each morning measures,
- Wisely use it while we can.
Z Every station has its troubles,
3. Murmuring o,er it will not mend {;
Meeting misery makes it double;
Longest lanes must have an end.
Sunbeams after showers are brightest,
Seeking sorrow is sin,
Loving hearts are ever brightest,
: Peace, that jewel, dwells within.
Fretfnl fears ingloom repining
Shade the heart with dark despair,
See, there's light around you shining,
Z, And for shadows never care.
Longest joys wont last for ever,
= Make the most of every day;
Youth and beauty Time will sever,

The departure Of Nessrs. Sose and Slater f9R'
Washington and New York, rather abrupt y, s>day
or two ago, has excited no little curiosity and some
comment, inasmuch as both gentipmvn have been
more or ess connected with Nicaragua sff iIs, ard
it was supposed that the recent failure Of the Lock
ridge expedition had something 80 do vi b their
JOINT mission. At any other time, those gentlemen
might have esf, sinsly or jointly, wishopt any :
rious noteworthiness being attached 10 the ipei;
but, under the circumstances. the curiosity and
conjecture which their departure produces is only
natural
Whether they have gone to make bid for the
remnant OF George Laws secondhand and better
ihan-new old muskets, or try to rouse the Admin
istration from its somnolence on the Nicaraguan
question, We do rot pretend to know or say. OF
the two, however, the former we would deem the
most practicable; for George Law has already it is
on-dsted invested to considerable extent in Nicar
eua-having equipped and di.pltcbed HennIgsen
thither as his representative-and 1t il not probable
that he would see bis investment lost by the part

oct an effort TO ''get his own again" ''Shoot an

On the eve of the campaign, common
prudence would suggest that we should
glance at the movements OF the foe, and see
how far they have approached towards the
line of battle, how they are armored, mar
shaded, how prepared for the onset. We
have now but very few words to say, and
shall not extend our reconnaissance, beyond
the markee of our redoubtable neighbor
of the Union and american For sometime
past, that battery has been in operation,
employing the commander and all his staff
in blowing their trumpets and sounding the
reveilIe, calling up their forces from the
reyels succeeding the late triumph. 1t has,
in the. meantime, planted a small fancy
howitzer, from which it has thrown some
vagrant, unexplosive shells at the Ameri.
can forces in this congressional district;
occasionally elevating its line of projection,
with view to startle and confuse other
divisions of our compact army. Although
the engineering was skillful enough, there
was something radically wrong in the mu-
nitions, and this by-plot has proved dead
failure. While this has been going on,
we have taken occasion, to discharge at,
intervals, several shells of great magnitude,
and charged with alien suffrage, squatter
sovereignty, State equality in government
tai bounty, &c, which, we fear, have had
the effect of dsconcerting and dispiriting
our neil hbOr. Tothem he has not deigned
to reply. Early on the mornings of
the Goth and 9th of March, he issued
meagre bulletin, telling us that alien suf-
frage was "really sound principle" and
promising ''in day or two" to show that
it "has been uniformly praeticed by our
government, and supported by men of all
parties" And there the matter rests.
Upon the subject of the equality of the
States in the disposition of the public lands,
he comes out upon the rampartS and says,
i9 NiO"l anu uhOqui'OCdl FOlSC, CudV tuio
was "sheer humbug," IAN attempt to re-
vive the odious old whig doctrine of distri-
BUTTON" ito buy the people with the peo-
pies money" &C., and then retires with
great dignity and composure, to the lounge
in his markee. -- -,--
1t is evident that our adverSaries mean
to resort to the by-path and chapparal war
fare in this contest. The small gunnery,
black republicanism, prescription, secrecy,
oaths, &c, are to constitute the weapons.
They will get up a tremendous amount of
noise with these, which, united with the
obsterperous vocal cries of their legions in
which all are expected to participate to
the full strength of their lungs, will it is
supposed, urge them on to victory. This
is the result of our observations. Well,
we shall see.
