The answer came reluctantly, and in tones 50 low
as To meet only her ear.
The fourth and last prediction was, that 6ciore
n,y t'rentyfh birth day should perish on The Sca'
fold
A low cry broke from the lips Of lIonora her
hands hew up and covered her face. After min
ute or two She dropped them, and looking him stead
lily in the face, said with quiet firmness--
"Y ou doubtless wonder at my emotion. Now
hear me- On the autumn following the summer in
which that prediction Was made to you, was in
Baltimore with my Grandmother, and with Mrs.
Willoushbv, who Wa, then Miss Hene. Curiosity
took to the rooms of the Egyptian, who was then
practicng in that city. And after some such pre-
paration. as he had used in your case, he cast my
horoscope and read my future. 1t was this, that be-
fore my twentieth birthday, should be a bride, but
a wife, for that the fatal firm ofthe scaf0H

Now which is to be believed, Gov Wal

Both have not told the truth. Such bare
faced Justification of notorious facts, facts
established beyond doubt, by the testimony
of prominent Democratic officials, cannot
fail to convince every honest Democrat not
blinded by party zeal, of the immortality
and iniquity of a party that has to resort
to such means TO sustain itself. God help

WHAT MEANS THIS HAPPINESS

WHAT MEANS THIS HAPPINESS!
What means this happiness my heart
Can scarce make known its bessedncss;
Its tranquil JOY 50 deeply full,
Knows not Il feeling OF distress;
There is no shadow OH my heart.
No thought to make the teardrop start;
In sweet serenity each day,
Passes, Ike golden dreams away.
II comes not like the hush of winds,
To tell us that the storm is nigh;
For mental clouds do not arise
To cast their gloom across my sky;
What calm tranquility is this,
What "Sobcr certainty ofb!issl''
That to my soul such light has given,
Ii seems radiance sent from Heaven.
1t is a radiance from above,
Mingled with lights which earth has known;
The love OF heaven doth bless nv heart,
The love of friends makes bright my home.
Home loves, and Heavens together blcni,
The richest boon the Giver sends;
United, these my soul doth bless,
With calm and tranquil happiness
Grace.

1j' We are rejoiced to hear from our esteemed

Eg- The editor of the little Democrat
who is "a graduate of Ann Arbor College,
also a graduate of the Michigan Bar" in
that paper of the 24th ult, said
1--WE assure our Republican friends,
however, that all the favor and friendship
they are dsposelto show Senator Douglas,
is entirely gratutous Oh their part. We do
not ask it of them, nor thank them for it
in fact we are inclined to think with the
Free Press that their favor is far more
hurtful than their frowns'
1t was for the utterapcc of this silly, con-
tcmptible and insulting language, that we
dubbed him ''hobbledehoy.
lie processes now to be Douglas man,
bat, unless we are greatly deceived, has a
strong inclination to let the water on his
backing wheel and take the Presidents po-
Sition We shall see what we shall see.
But, on the Supposition that he is sincere
ly Douglasite, we would like for him to
tell the world through his '~ilely circulated
thumb-paper, what chance Douglas would
have of carrying his kansas-cnaLlins act
through Congress, were the Republican
members to refuse to support it. Three or
four votes in the Senate, and dozen or so
in the House. would be about all the sup
port it would receive. This is about a.
near IA, the Democratic party generally
comes to e'!ccminS its pledges.
Marshall County Republican. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1856-1878, 1858-01-21

One more step and Senator Douglas will
be RepuJlican.-Rep. .oqper.
That step will have to be "irorn the sub
lime to the ridiculous ''-Ex
We find the above in the last number of
the little Dem0crot. We have reason to
believe, as it is placed among the original
matter in that sheet, that it was concocted
entirely by the editor We do not blame
him for trying to disown the deformed and
lying brat We regard it as an indication
that he is not entirely lost to all sense of
shame.
The idea of sublimity attaching to such
party as the Dcmoclatic-the party that,
from the editors own admissions, has al
ready abandoned the doctrine of popular
sovereignty" on which it rode into power
is too ridiculous to entertain for a mo-
mcnt.

F<s- y farmer, '.oncc on a time, as the
story goes, after missing several fat weth-
ers, determined to watch his sheepfold one
dark night 20 see If lac could discover the
thief. He posted himself in a place where
he could see without being seen, and after
watching until the "wec Sma' hours" and
when his eyeli'ls began to grow heavy with
slumbcr he thought he saw dark shadow
fit between him and the sheepfold Rou-
sing himself AMI rubbing his optics, he saw
a sight that greatly excited his usually even
temperament. Hastily pursuing the re-
treating shadow he overlook the object OF
his chase just as he leapcd into the high
way, with one of the farmers finest and
fatest wcthcrs on his back, when the fol-
lowing colloquy cnsued:
Farmer.-What are YOU doing with my
sheep on your back?
Sheep Thief ,call in an atmosphere
above such vile slang, and Billingsgate
filth"
Farmer-You are sheep thief, at any
rate, and that's my sheep on your back
now.

great advantage as when it is made the re-
ply to calumny and defamation
F.-What you say is true enough in
some cases, but in yours have proof in
controvertible before me that you arc vile
sheep thief; face about, aud march to jail

more than President Buchanan said in his

AZ IMPORTANT MOvFMFYT


Some years agO-We believe it was during Mr.
FmLNORE's Administrator proposition vas made
byt Hawaiian government itself to transfer those
islands 70 the jurisdiction and control Of the United
States Our government refused that liberal offer,
in which there was so great a mutual benefit, aud
turned it over to seek advantages elsewhere Since
that time the importance Of these islands has won
derfully incrsssed, being in the direct liue Of
China trade. The old King has died and his sue
cessor is known to be dsinelined towards our gov
eminent. Recent advices from some Of our Naval
officers in the Pacific have given rise to the following
paragraph from the Washington correspondent Of
the Baltimore San:
treaty, 1t is reported, is about to be made
Between France and the Sandwich Islands govern
meut, by which France is 10 take those islands
under her protection and 20 obtain q monopoly o.
Their trade. Such q monopoly would be exceedingly
prejudicial 10 American interests in the Hawaiian
Islands, and renderit subject Of regret that they
hrd not been acquired by the United States at TIE
time when a proposition made to that effect on
the part Of the Hawaiian government itself
This is matter Of serious importance TO our
government The great bulk Of foreign commerce
the part Of these Hawaiian or Sandwich, islands
is from the United States; while France, which is
intriguing to establish Proteotorate therein with
view toultimate usurpaton Of sovereignty as in the
Nlanquisas and Society Islands-has scarcely any
commercial relations at all The latest official
turns Published at Honolulu, make the following
showing:
The declared value Of all dutiable produce and
manufactures imported by the Sandwich Islands
amounts to 81 PSI, 95l per anuum. OF this, the
largest proportion comes from the United States,
and is S954,9l9. The next is China, which sends
10 the value Of $40, O5G Then Chill, SIS O99, Great
Britain is only fourth, at S2O,47I. Bremen sends
So, 225 worth Of goods. The Empire Of France
sends to the value of-tIirty dollars ayear.
Ofthe sperm oil exported from the Sandwich Is
lands ia 92O gallons are sold TO Great Britain,
and only 476 gallons 10 France Every year 500
American, and only 10 French whalers put into the
Sandwich Islands, and I37 American trade thither
against five French merchant vessels.
Il is clear, then, that France has not the shadow
Of a claim on the peaof commercial connection, to
assume political proteclorate of these Islands, and
that the United States are not only their next
neighbors, but their most extensive customers.

When Alvarez and Comonf9rt commenced the rev.
olution which overthrow Santa Anna, they sent to
California and enlisted party Of American volun-
teers. Before the expedition reached Mexico, how
ever the revolution OF Alvarez had been consumma-
ted and the authority Of his government was estab-
lishsd On the arrival Of the expedition at La Paz,
iu Lower California, its commander announced its
character snd destination to the governor of that
place, and acquainted him with the engagement by
virtue OF which it had entered the territory Of Mex.
leo That commander, however, chose to regard the
party IS ilibusters, Imprisoned them, and subse-
,uenty had them sent to the city Of Mexico, where
they were again confined. Mr.. Forsyth, our minis
ter finding that they had gone to Mexico by war
rant Of the head Of the existing government, de-
mauded their release. They were allowed to 60 on
parole but the case was handed over to the courts
to decide whether they had been guilty Of uulaw-
fully entering Mexico. The case hung long while
in the court, and Mr.. Forsyth at last advised the
men to 20 home giving Them the means to do so.
Nov. however, the matter has been decided The
supreme court by the unanimous opinion Of its five
Judges has decided that the La Paz expedition was
not a pirahCal expedition, ard that the members
will therefore, be entitled to indemnity for their
imprisonment Among the party were some English
and French, but the ministers Of those two conn
tries would not move in behalf Of their couutryuen
The French minister went SO far as to accept par
don for the French subjects engaged in it. Mr..
Forsyth was offered pardon likewise for the Amer
lean citizens but he refused to accept it, saying to
The Mexican government that he asked for justice
not grace for his COuutrvmen.
