THE OLD GENTLEMAN. BY LEITCH -lIITCHIE. 'Go on with 3 our story, sir,' said the young lady, interrupting me; hate mys• ticism.' 'Alas; do ycu forget that I am talking of the love of seventeen? However, when I reached the bridge, the ilea all of a sudden, occurred to me ol• the chi-gentleman ; and I started with emotion as the thought flashed across my mind, that lie was in all probe. bility the father of Miss Montgomery ! But when I came to calculate age, I found, that ilany at all, he was more likely to be her grandfather. You. may think it odd that this personage had taken so fast a hold my imagination; but the fact is, I was sus• ceptible in more senses that young ladies give to the word. At any rate, at that moment—beginning to ascend the arch of the bridge—lTlV fancy conjured up the state. ly phantom, and I amused myself once more with looking at the cocked hut, and the white horse. 'But it was easier to summon the ghost than to lay it. The figure of man and steed grew more and more subs'ani ial as I gazed; and at length, with a thrill almost of super stitious feeling, I became sensible of the fact, that the old gentleman was actually riding up the opposife side of the arch. His horse was in the middle of the cause. way, and out of involuntary respect I moved mine to the left, otherwise we should have mot. Whether it was his desire to do so or not, I cannot say ; but he certainly recog- nized me as an old acquaintance, nodding his head, end waving his whip hand, with un expression in his eye of good humoured familiarity, mingled with the same signifi cance I had observed five years before, as if there existed between us some secret con• nexion. I pulled off my hat in bashful con fusion ; and, without turning my head coin pletely round, I could observe that lie look• ed after me more than once, continuing to nod and smile. At length, however, the bridge was between us, and the lofty arch concealed him from my view. 'Like all persons constituted as I was in those days, I was wonderfully brave when the occasion was past. I reproached my self bitterly for not replying to the familiar gestures of the old gentleman, and inducing him to accost me. A Lundred amcdotes occurred to my memory of the fortunes of young men being made by the capricious liking of some wealthy senior; and this old gentleman—who had the air of being land ' lord of the whole domain—had certainly taken a fancy to me." I spurred my horse tip an acclivity by the read-side, and looked back ; but the object of my ine:initions was already out of sight. I inquired about him in vain as I passed throu g h the t own . Some hal seen one old gentlemen, some aunt her, and some none at all; but notwith• standing all my cross questioning, I could obtain no clue whatever to the old gen tleman.' • , What stapid people the-e Auldelattrr must have been!' temnrhed the young lady imp t ilieroty.. • But,pri ba r :Is vur OWt fid% Y• 'I/ et9ll.' in 'Web abtiur wu to your purno,A,, that r-erit:irs they had Ito patience tt (Om V. u.' 'lt is the same thing to my story,' said 1 of course, fourid Miss Montgomery all . had drew: . ed.' 'Why of course?' 'Because my imegination so willed it When Cervantes made Don Quixote iris take a peasant girl for his high born pria cess,'he did not depart from nature—he merely carried nature to that I ntel) of ex• travaganee required for his romance. It oaks.; ri great deal to disabuse the fancy of a youth of seventeen ; and there was noth ing in Martini Montgomery to give a very violent shock to any of my preconceived notions. Her features wore handsome, her complexion more fitir than pale, her hair between 11,xen and auburn; she sang bal lads, played the Battle of Plague, rend nov els and was passionately fond of poetry • What more could I have desired? Did it require a very potent enchan'ment to make me take this country gill for my Dirk-Mee ? `Still, there was a certain awkwardness in our n.eeting. Marion had been so long the companion of my imagination, that I fancied myself an old acquaintance. I thought she would recognise me. I ex pected conscious looks, and shakings of the hand; and when, instead, 1 saw the grace lul girl fall hack, rather than advance, as she curteised to toy introductory bow, and draw up her stately neck, and drop her sweet, soft eyelids, I was contliunded, nay over-awed. How terrible is a well bred young woman of seventeen to a great boy of that age 1 My heart sank as I looked at her ; my hopes died away ; I was amazed at my presumption; nod, if a proper excuse could have been found, 1 verily b. Iteve I should have returned home that instant. In the course of the day, however, I be• came 1110 re tranquil. We talked of novels, and poetry, and walks, and woods; and then she sang, and played—and vanished. slept not a wink all night. 'The next morning, before joining the family at breakfast, I wrote sonic verses, which wore given to her the same day by her brother. 'They were strong enough for a begin ning. I thought them too strong. When assured that they were actually in her hnnds, I was ono moment in a burning fever, and the next in a cold sweat. I took good care to keep out of hi r way that day ; which I managed by persuading her broth• er to go with run to sonic distance to fish. He praised the verses warmly; assured me that they would Ws ke an impression ; and even declared his conviction that Marion had already begun to feel the tender semi. mew. `For my part,' said he, have taken care not to hint a word of the mutter to her. Interfl.rence on these occasions is always in 'udictous. You know that a young lady never accepts willingly the husband provi• vied by her father, or guardian; and were I, her brother, to assume any such official character, it would spoil ull.' You see we were very cunning. 'lt was late in the evening before we re. turned ; and, my feelings being toned down by bodily fatigue, I entered the drawing room with more composure than might linvo been expected. "'0 why d.d L' stay an lnnu Marion, jumping up as he went in —'we have all been so impatient!' Hugh pinched my arm. "'lf I had known that my absence had cost you a single thought,' cried I, should long since have flown back to —.' I had begun too high. I stammered—blush ed—nod added, in a lower key `to dinner!' " father has gone out to look for you,' persisted Marion impatiently ; 'your uncle in Edinburgh is dying—you are to return home instantly—and set out for the capital en rly in theq morning.' W bile speaking, she was stuffing sandwiches into my pocket, nnd pouring out n glass of wins, which she compelled me to drink instanter. 'if you ride hard,' she continued, 'you will still get home before it is very dark. Now, good bye I' was thunderstruck. My poor uncle! verses I turned a vacant lock upon Marion ; and incontinent she seized me bt the shoulder, and pushed me out of the room. In another minute I was clattering through the town of Auldclatters like an evil spirit. I crossed the bridge—.' 'Without seeing the old gentleman?' said the young lady. •Pshaw ! I had n o time for old gentlemen. I saw nothing of him, but rode straight home.' 'And is that all?' felt it to be enough at the time,' said I wiping the damps of remembered agony rom my brow 'A tai you have nothing farther to tell about the old gentleman? Was he Miss McGomery's grandfather? Did you learn his name?' 'Never! never•!' 'Truly, this is very amusing. I congrat ulate you on your talent for story-telling ; but, were you in the position of Schehera• znde, you would hardly save your head by it. Good night, Sir!' and she &tinned away again, in a pet.

It will be seen from this proposal, that the Democrats have offered to .the Luco horns, the most liberal terms of areomma dation, which they can refuse only from a spirit, of ohstinney, or from a desire to avoid an invertigation into the frauds which ate alleged to have taken place ut the elce lion in the county of Philadelphia. These terms, if accepted. would give them all tbe officers of the House, and a cootru/ ling Majority, until the contested seats were determined• It would, also cure the defect in the organization of the House under Ntr. Hopkins. Having organized un constitutionally, any act which they may assume to do as a House of Representatives is neccessarily void. Previous to the meeting of the Legislat ure, it was repeatedly said that the mein• bers elect, now acting with Mr. Hopkins, intended organizing their House by force, if possible, and thus not only avoid an in vestigation of the fraudulent election in the county of Philadelphia, but t;liso ensure an election of a United States Senator against the expressed voice and wishes of the people, of the state. Ten Judges in Philadelphia, with Chas. J. Ingersoll at their head, commenced this system of force by excluding the returns from the Northern Liberties, amounting to more than six thousand votes• A vast assemblage of people front Philadelphia county, on the day fixed by law for the organization of the House,--filled Le - galleries, aisles, and Speaker's chair, and by threats of personal violence. declared their determination to carry their object into efrect-- and now when the friends of tht Constitution and Laws— C.7C4'Cn. the lovers of order, submit n proposition, asking that no advantage he !alien of them. it is REJECTED and revolutionars means proposed on the parts o f the Elopktos heato —or at least some of its most vildent mein here• Let theta resort to this course if they choose—and upon their shoulders will rest the responsibility : upon their skirts will be the blood which n u ts• be spilt in the Revolu tion %Inch they have determined to Ming upon the country.— 7Tleg,ra ph.

He appears to have died without a struggle. Yes_ Malay he took part in the debate on the treasona (do resolution of submitting to the mob, by recog sizing the Hopkins House. He opposed it in a must excellent speech, characterized by sound sense, ardent patriotism, and a deep sense of its vast imp .rtrince. A more solemn and affecting appeal to the honor, the patriotism, and the Fell. gion of his associates, has seldom been heard.— But all his virtuous efforts were in vain. The fa tal deed had been cautiously but securely plotted. It was done; and the shock which shattered our free institutions, rick deep into the heart i f this unshaken Patriot. He saw, and felt intensely for the future ronsequences of this blighting resole tion. .Altheugh in his usual health he complain ed in the evening that the proceedings of the senate had made him sick at heart. He fell its victim. He literally died of a broken heart. He is a great loss to his constituents; to the Stets to the cause of Liberty. 11 in nets were all guided by rbrbbian purity and Doman firmness.

FELLOW CITIZENS : The didioulties Which have been thrown in our way in organid.ing the Legis• home, and in transacting its ordinary busi• [less. you have already been made acquaint. o I with. An armed mob, headed by men of desperate principles, and for tunes, drove the Senate and House of Representatives from the Capitol, and required them ro or ganize the several branches ni th e Le g i s i a . lure in the mode which they dictated. That mode was contrary to the Constitution and the Lards; and this the first attempt in Republican A merice, to prescribe the course an d enforce, either legitimate or illegi : i ma te legislative action, by hired assas.ins, and murderous weapons. Fifty•two members of the House of Representatives and liven tv•one Senators solemnly resolved never to Yield to it. The insurgents proceeded en their organization with a reckless audacity, which to al IFISIa Ild, required the fir in hearts of patriots fully conseious of the 'melt re sponsihility which circumstances had east upon there—a responsibility which looked to no local interest however rice r—t.o no tern. pantry right however importam—but to the interests of a nation and of the civilized world, cud to_the rights of posterity. Cer min members oldie Senate became alarm ed, and nfter having organized their body upon precisely the same principles that we 'did ours, hesitated for two -weeks to ac• knowledge the legitimacy of the House of It epresentativea. During that time treach• cry or fear, deprived us of three of our members without changing our censtitu tional or legal position. The Senate then (alter those members had been sworn into the Hkripkin's A SNOC intion,) summoned cou rage enough on the 20th Dec. to pass the following resolution : "Resolved, That the body claiming to he the House of Representatives, as organized on die 4th inst. by the election of William Hopkins, Esq. as Speaker, was not constuu led a House of Representatives, according to the Constitution and Laws of I ilib Corn. monwealth." The body of men thus declared Hiegel and unconstitutional, then enacted another scene of their drama of intimidation, and passed a resolution intimating their deter mination to assume the reins;id reorganize the government. Several Senators, tither ing before, have deemed it their duty to yield, and exhibited the spectacle of the Semite of Pennsylvania, purchasing their peace by yieldiug to the domands of lawless violence; deserting those who were associat ed iv:th them in defending what, in their resolute moments, they declared, to 1)0 the, vital interests of Constitutional Liberty ; ,mil thus reducing the House of Represen tatiVo3 to the humiliation of deserting eight of their members regularly acknowledged, and sworn in, and _of entering and riming with a body forced upon them by a mob, and declared illegal ; or, of withdrawing from the. Legislature and sacrificing the tempo rary, to the paramount interests of their Cm stituents. On 'the 25th of December, the Senate passed the following resolution by ii majort• ty of one vote, Messrs. Strohm, Case, Ful. lertun, Michler, Miller (of the city) and Mc- Conkey, voting with the opposition; Mr. I Pearson and Mr. Ewing ham , ' previously voted against recognizing the legal 1 - louse, on Mr. Cassatt's amendment: "W UEIIEAS, dillioulties have arisen in the organization of the house of Representativ • es, and two bodies haveifor sonic time been , in existence, each claiming to be the regu larly constituted House of Representatives of Pennsylvania, hut neither having had a emistitutional quorum of Members whose seats were undisputed, uud neither has yet been lolly recognized by the Semite. "And, Whereas, the House organized by the election of Wm. HOpkillS as Speaker, is now composed ont constiiutioual quorum of legally returned Mern.berei, and being thus brought within the pale of the Constitution, I he Senate outtlll no longer refuse to re• rognizo the sAid Hotise, as the properly con stitun:ii House of Representatives, 'I herefore, "Resolved, that a Committee be appointed to Kuria said House. that the Sonitie is uow , organized mid ready to proceed to business, and that the resolution passed on the inst. appointing a committee to wait on the (louse of Representatives, is hereby rescind and that the said Committee ts' ant: lie;'eltv is discharged." Unwilling to forgo the advann o w s ; of cal legit:lllton, nod dispairini, of tobtainto : : justice for their constituents without their ' personal attendance, many , perhaps most of mv ... „tho:• elates have determined to sehroit 1 the mortif Mg necessity, and enter •he ille gal House. With their course I find no fault. But I believe you will prefer the permanent interests of our whole e ono ry to your own to optintry local benefit.
