SUCCESS Upon MERIT,-Ifthere is an
instance upon the records of our country
where an article of American manu-
facture has made its way to universal
favor solely upon its own merits and
without extraneous aid, it is that of the
Chemical .SGlerGtus, 1t has only to be
soii in one place, and it is demanded in
another; and so it has gone on increasing
in favor until the products of the extensive
Chemical Works Of D. 3. De Land & Co.,
at Fairport. Monroe County, n. T., are
now immense.
This article is made only at these works
BY a process known only to the
PrOprietors. and is better for all purposes

They sat and sang duets together.
But soon they rose nor wished to stay
Until the sun had passed is setting,
And found that. out OF sympathy.
The stone had also heen d<,n- netting.

The Thirtieth Regiment.

We have recently seen letter from
our Member of Congress, stating that
this fine regiment should he collected to-
gelher, and Immediately ordered into ac-
tive service. Capt. Fulton's company
and another, are in iiacotah Territory,
aud would have to march through deep
snow and intense cold. several hundred
miles before they would reach rnil. Dad.
II would be matter Of great difficulty,
and extreme hazard to the lives of the
soldiers, TO undertake to march for their
regiment before next Nav or June, as the
spring floods will make the sloughs and
small streams quite impossible.
We see no reasonable prospect, there
fore, of the Regiment being collected
together before the middle of next sum
mer.
1t has always appeared to us, that this
regiment, nearly 100 strong, has been
kept idle through an influence at Madi-
son that IS not cred.taLie TO the executive
powers that be. We notice that Gov.
Lewis has inaugurntod srve'al new re-
furus, and we hope that he will take this
matter in hand, and send this regiment,
or at least what there is left of It in the
State, to the front. Officers and pri-
Yates are all DESTROYS of going where
they can be of some service. 1t is a pity
and shame that SO fine body of men,
SO well drilled. and differed, should not
have an opportunity to earn for the gov
eminent even the nations they consume.

may be ordered into active service, which
