And larth. .-hall smile and bloom once nore,
Beneath Spring's gentle raiin.
Ye'Ve battled long and lustily
For olid thouigh Winter lie,
The white-hair'd warrior'z arm is strong

And ill hetidens the foe who te:atL

lie stratagem wa4 delicate:
lie iod his toops witi felt,
And led them in the night-tie
To wiere the saplings dwell:
They bound themi-and tie distant Sun
Their fettere could not ncelt.
And then le stilled the running strean.
And iced the verdant vale;
And having weakened every point,
lie buckled on his mail,
And charged with all his forees on
With winad, and rain, and hail!
A learful trife!-and tiousands fe1
Before each withering blast:
Shrank fron the earth aghaist;
The saplings too lok'd on with dread,
Bound in their fetters fast.
Still fought ye on, right istily,
Till the warn Sun camnue taar,
And reft the old tan ofhis strength,
And broke hi-s icy opear:
Peace to lie iane-e; they've borne him off
Upon his own white bier.
Atd bright reward that f ulws toil
Shell smile upon ye now:
For Sprinlg will twine the Iwarrior's wreath
Around elacs a-:ed brow
And rarlands.hr;h ao erst ye wore.

A .w Teen1rance Morine.-Tt is
snid that the inhabitants of a town in
Connecticut have voted, that whereas the
selling of spiritnous liquors is profitable to
the seller. and unprofitable to the town,
that therefore the town will take the busi
ness into its own hands. They therefore
appointed a man to sell spirits for them;
voted him salary. ordered the selectmen
to furnish him with the spiritst and directed
the agent to registerevery man who bought
it, and the quantity purchased. All that
remains is to publish the record monthly;
and the selectmen will soon be relieved
from the necessity of looking out for fresh
supplies.-Ch. Ade.
line in the Sacrament.-The letter of
Mr. James, of England, puts this matter
on the Scriptural ground; Admit the prin
eiple, that we may change a prescribed
element of a divinely instituted rite, you
vcrthrow all our foundation. If one per
eon. or class of persons may change or
iholish another, and so on. till nothing is
eft worth preserving. All the laws and
rescriptions of the Bible will become a
rope of sand.-Christian Mirror.

- We begged to know the rules of the
Convent. A hollow voice answered, that
he Carmelitics rose at four in summer
ind five in winter; that they slept in their
:omins upon straw, and every moruing dug
i shovel full of earth for their graves; that
they walked to their devotional exercises
)n their knees; that when any of their
"riends visited them, if they spoke, they
vere not suffered to he seer, or if they
were seen they were not suffered to speak;

GLENTWORTH, AND tiis ACCOMPLtCES.
-How capricious is fortune! How strange
is history! hlow wonderful the scenes if
actual life! How much more wonderful
the prose of reality than the poetry of fic
tion! Take the case of Glentworth and
his associales. This culpable man was
lately on 1st-l in New York, and in danger
of being se, to the Penitentiary; while his
associates is crime are in public office, and
will have their names sent up to the Sen
ate of the United States. by the President
of the United States, for honorable confirm
aion. This is truth; and what fiction can
he more btrange-more wonderful-more
worthy of deep meditation. Glentworth

tiary; his accomplices in otTice. and to be
whitewashed by the President and Sen
ate! 0 tealpora! 0 mores!
What Administration ever made such
professions of virtue, morality and religion,

SENATE.-In our hasty remarks of yes
terday, on he proceedings of the Senate
touching the Fox aind Webster correspon
dence, we do, not mention that it was re
ferred to the Committee on Foreign Rela
tions, with ' view to embody the senti
ments of eb4 Senate in a form that might r
render themautboritative. The principles
involved in 6e precedent now to be esta
blished, are tar more importance than
any immediate issue to which the present
controversy ui lead. Mr. Allen of Ohio
rose at the puclusion of the debate, and
gave notice at when the committee re
ported, or i failed to report at all, after
It time when he should, himself,
ofer a reselu besuh'et-he would
endeavor to urge sueTifews as would, he
hoped, receive the sanction or the Senate
by a direct vote. Mr. Allen, in the brier
explanation he gave to the Senate of his
motives or taking the part he proposed in
this matter, referred to the vast interest
which his State had in it-a border State
on its whome Northern line-and exposed
to similar incursions from Canada, as that
which now engaged the attention of the
Senate. He said it was of incalculable
importance to his constituents that that
question should be settled and rightly set
.led, by a solemn decision of the represen
tatives orthe States. lie indicated, in the
course of his remarks, the leading views to
which his mind would lie directed in the
further discussion of the suliect i and said
that, while it was under the consideration
of the committee, he would direct his er
forts to a thorotgh investigation of all that
hadh hearing upon it.
To-day, as we predicted yesterday. Mr.
Clay (as will be seen from our Congres
sionil column) endeavored to dcpriv: .11.
Woodhury of the opportunity of being
heard ott the report of the Secretary of' the
Treasury.
There seemed to le a general consent
when Air. Woodhury gave way yesterday,
that lie might call up the resolution to
whieb lie referred,. atid deliver his views.
Even air. Clay said "agreed ;" htut to-day
it seems objeciions were interpiosedl. A nd

M r. Wootdbury, in his es position to-d ay.
showeid from Mr. Ewing's ownt report. that
the aissumnptionl hat the-re was a debit t hat
muset lie provided for, atnd a deeicit im the
mieatns of the Treasury teo be- mtade up,
whichl reqiredC~ the mteetinig oif Congress mi
Mlav, was wholly without foutitoiu~n. lIe
took the report to pirove that itlh otn the
-ih of Matrch and 3lst of May, it was al
mitted that the Trreasury had a surplus 'in
humid-anid lie showed that lust for the e
tra sessioni and the niew expenieitures called
for, the saime full condition ot tihe TIrea'oi
ry would have been foned ini Seputmbuer
as in May. AndI Mr. WVeodhitry further
showed from the report, thai nt wvithtstand'
iing the clamior raised through the news
papers about a Jiorty million idebt left lie
hind it biy the late A4dministrations-thiat it,
the report. is obliged to pare downe the 6cr
ty millionis debit to about six millimns for
the wholo year 1841; atnd if a dleduction lie
made for the cost of the extra sessioun, nwl
the additional expenditures asked by the
present Administration, the pretcendedl
forty nmillins ineumbriance will shrink to
less than three ! This Mr. WVoodbury prov
ed clearly from the date of Mr. E wing's
report, and made it apparent to the whole
Senate., that the various assumed chtarges
and probable deficits heaped tup in the re
por to make a conjectural dfchi-t in the
finances, is as egreiaons a humbug as twe
minIttlitin deta ofl triy iilliois which the
report itself dissi pates.
One of the points of Mr. Woodbury's
exposition, was that inl whibch i showed
the absolute contradiction betweeti the re
port furnited by the Secretary to Con
gress and that furnished by him to the l're
sident. Mr. Woodbury compared them
together, where setting forth the state of
the Treasury, under tile same hieals, and
proved incontestably that they disagreed in
all ; and in some, to more than the amount
of millions. One remarkable feature of
difTerence is this: Mr. Ewing in his own
report to Congress, states that the debt, at
the end of 1 41, will be about six millions,
in his statement, coming through the Pre.
sident's message, lie makes it upwards of
eleven millions.
But we will unot anticipate the clean shrift
which Mr. Woodbury has inade up of the
botched up account given by his successor,
Df the finances, We will lay this speech,
which founds itself at every step on the
unquestionable data of Mr. Ewing's own
lffice, in a few days before the public.
rhere is not a detnocrat in the Union who
will not read it with the highest gratifica
ion. He will find in it a perfect triumph.
rhe federalists will read it with the sane
leelings that they did the accounts of our
rictories during the last war.
IIOUSE OF REPRESE.NTATIVES.
The sessiion commenced by prayers. not
-ithstanding the House had no rules; and
he reverend Chtaplain in his black robe, as
ic stood in the Speaker's chair, hung with
rape, and stretched out his hands over the
lepresentattives of the people. resembled
in angel of mourning, stretching lia sable
vines over chaos.
The action was commenced by Mr.
stuart, of Virgiria. who olfered the follow
n; resolutiot, and moved the previous
iuestion:
Resolved. That all the rules and oners
if the last House of Representatives, not
uperscded by any resolution adopted at
he present session, now in force, be, and
he same are hereby adopted, for the regu
ation of the House at the present sessioni;
ind that the Select Committee upon the
tules heretofore raised proceed to revise
ind amend the rules heretofore adopted.
and they have leave to report at all times.
Mr. Neshit. of Georgia, under the Par.
imentary law, for that is now tbe law of
he House, commenced along delsete upon.
he propriety of putting the previous Ines
ion. Mir. Brown of Pennsylvania, Mr.
kford of Georgia, Mr. Pickens, of South
;arolina, Mr. Hfabershai of Georgia. and
&r. Ilolmes of South Carolina, followed
iginst the motion, while Mr. Gentry of
rennessee, Mr. Gamble of Georgia. .1r.
?rofit ofndiana,and Mr. Williams of Ten
iessae. spoke itt favor of it. The gentle
nen r-oundf themselves constantly out if or
ler, antd the abolitionistscoistantly sprang
o their feet to call thetm back to lie ques
ion. The question. n- .1r. AlfAird atid
dr. Pickens justly remarked, was ihe ques
iou of the abolition of slavery. and they
utitated that the pre-went question would.
f carried, be a decisiuzi itn favor of' the it
tes.
Mr. Gtiner. of Virginia, took the iN'.i

bect left out or the House he had no doubt
but the House would have organized long

people. They voted for Tip but cared not
for Ty. lie was made President by an
act of God. lie hinted that Mr. Tyler's
friends on the floor had interfered to pro
vetnt an organization of the House. so as to
make the extra session odious to the pen

his attack upon the institutions of the
South. if he would only come along with
him now, and vote to organize the House.

and thanked him for an inkling of the
proposed course to be pursued by the Whig
party. He said that some of his friends
voted for Tip who would not have voted
ir him, had it not have been for his being
found on the ticket with Ty. He said that

principles.

Mr. Cushing of Massachusetts acknowl

disorganization of the House. He recogni

the people would send another Cromwel
to drive them out.
Mr. Davis of New York uppesfed ti the
Democrats of the South, who had gideo ig

Mr. Davis of Kentucky denied that there
was any union between the Whip of
Mlassachetts and Kentucky, other than
that which should exist between members
of the same great party. lie felt as much
loyalty for John Tyler as he did for Wm
If. llarristi; as much even as the gentle
