BY AIRY
am coming, friends, I'm coming,
To the home of other years;
Coming for smiles of welcome
And Tor sympathizing tears;
Coming to hear an echo
To my lone and weary heart;
To be met with smiles of glidncss,
And again, with tears, depart.
am coming, am coming.
To retrace the halmts OF old,
Where thy charms, Association
Hallow stream and wood and void;
Where the hill, the tree, the fountain,
Are more beautiful to me
Than Olympus, Pctrirch's Laurel,
Or Vaucluse could ever be.
am coming, am coming,
And sweet Amos classic stream
Never shed within poets heart
holier, brighter beam,
Than our own sweet, sparkling streamlet
This soul of mine shall thrill,
When the coach sweeps round the hill side,
Down by the sold saw-mll,'' ~
am coming, | am coming,
Arc YOU looking, friends, Cor me?
Will you meet me at the ''old blue spring.
Or meet me at the "sugar tree,''
And think of the moon-lit evenings
When the heat Of day was past -
How twas fkrre We built our sscastIes''
Too bright and fair to lastl
| am coming, | am coming,
And must see again each spot .a
Which, till the star of memory sets,
Can never be forgot -4 $50 ss
And there's one sweet spot, on the "grave yard hill,
Where I'll kncel me down and pray
That there, when slife's fcver's' over
This form of mine may lay.
am coming, l am coming,
To see the friends of yore,
| To tell of days of loneliness, ai9
To count each pleasure DER;
And then will come the parting,
And tears will fall like rain, ssa
For we must roam in separate paths
Mine all alone, again.

BEWARE OF THE wIpow

II n L ~ II =
The widow is dangerous thing,
With soft, black, shining curIs;
And looketh more bewitching
Than host of rompiny girls;
Her laugh is so delicious
So knowing, clear, beside
You'd never dream her thinking
Soon to become bride.
Her dress, though made of sable.
Gives roundness to her form
A touch Of something thoughtful,
A witching, winning charm;
And when she sits down by you,
With quiet, easy grace.
A tear may fall unbidden,
Or smile light up her face.
Her voice is soft, melodious,
And lute-like in its tone;
She sometimes sighs, "'tis dreadful
To pass through life alone"
Then she'll tell yeu you remind hsr
OF the loved onc dead and gese;
Your step, your form, your features
Thus the widow viii run -
Oh. list6n. yet be enefdL -
For she plays her part; 81
Her lips distill the nectar
That doth enslave the heart;
Be guarded or she'll win you
With smiles, and sighs, and tears.
And when you're safely welded
She may box your silly ears.

MEXICO.

| BY the latest news from Mexico, we learn that
President Commonfort has been reelected chief
magistrate of that Republic. This is an event OF
no minor Importance, and is the surest indication
we have seen for many year that the nation, in
stead of being crushed under the load of eccesas-
teal oppression under which it has been groaning
and staggering for the last thirty or forty-we
might say two or three hundred years--and in
stead of falling prey to anarchy, or taking refuge
from this curse in the protection of king is about
to start on new and hopeful career of national
prosperity. y
Mr.. CommonfOrt has had the extraordinary bold
ness, some would term it temerity, to attack that
gigantic, grasping and tyrannic power the Romish
Hierarchy of the country, which had absorbed
nearly all the wealth of the Republic, ruled it with
a rod ofiron, by having the conscience of the peO
Pile and nearly half the landed property in its pos
session. and sat like an incubus sucking the life
blood of its victim, and regardless OF its groans
and struggles Mexico has been in the grasp of
this monster, what the victim of the terrible ana
conda is, wrapped and entwined in its grping
folds and heretofore no one has been daring
enough to attack the monster and release the vic
tim. But, all honor to Commonfort he has not
only had the courage to do this, but the ability
and address to cut the boa constructor in twain,
and defy his power and venom. The nation has
shown the good sense to stand by him in the con
fict, and thus to take part in emancpating ITSELF
They found the right man for the place, and seem
determined to support him in his great work of
reformation. If they persevere in the work they
have so well begun Mexico has brilliant future be-
fore her. Let her break the shackles of religious in
tolerance with which she has been bound ever
since Cortez conquered the country, and proclaim
religious freedom let her separte church and state
and she will find that her people have energies
never heretofore manifested and the country re-
sources never yet developed. -'-1-7
All honor to Commonfort, and those who have
so manfully and wisely sustained him.

Committee on Printing, and other positions, shall
not be obtained by means Of brides or promises OF

THE REORGANIZATION OF THE
@ WING PARTY. n b. ,i-95 ~.

A writer, from Maryland, who claims to be an
old man and an old Wing, urges the rerorganiza-
ton Of the Wing party. He isevidently a man of
much intelligence and sincerity Of purpose. But.
let us ask him how, as, man, who is not -unae-
quainted with the human heart he can expect
those who rhave once been fast and sead4ast-
friends actuated by one motive, moved by one
principle led by one chief, and rallied under one
glorious banner, to come together and act thus
again after a large portion of them haye-basely
and treacherously abandoned their principles,
deserted their standard, betrayed their brethren
and the strongholds of their party to the enemy
as Benedict Arnold designed to do but vas pre-.
vented from doing. He must be mean spirited,
indeed, who can consent to shake hands and
affiliate again with base traitor, who has, for less
than thirty pieces of silver, sold, battered and
traiGcked away his own honor and good faith, and
the whole army with which he had once SO gal
antIy fought. Talk of re.uniting the Wing party
after such baseness and treachery! What trust
could be reposed in such men9 Who would be
willing to go into battle with them or r'-pp permit
them to guard the 7canpg mol let the traitors
go; they have qualified themselves for their pres
ent association, and let the Locofocos' have them
