had been indisposed for some time back,

health everybody recommended it. So
I started .villi the intention of being ab
sent a year or more. Traveling, I must
say, agreed with me completely, for at
Ihc first stepping tdiicc-, I made us hearty
a nual us any of my fellow-passengers; and
when I stopped for the nifc'LL, I slept as
sound as a roach. To tell the truth, I
feigned fickness to get aivuy from home.
The real motive of my departure was, my
too strongly bound to tho scenes of my
birthplace, and to the friends of my
childhood, to faar that. These are affec
tions, my dear Maria, that cling to the
heart, and will not forsake you, be you
where you may, or your situation what it
may ,
Here I stuck for a moment. Thinking
if I neglected to strike now I should nev
er gather courago to speak again, I took
her billing hand, and, as tho moments
were precious for I felt my courage
oozing awny 1 commenced:
' 1 foci truly happy in finding you alone
this evening ; I havo something for your
private ear. You will excuse my blunt

feelings toward Maria began to change ; I my heart I wished him anywhere else, at
mwavi nau a ioonsn longing to bo near that moment, than where ho was. After
tinned I, inking out my pencil and puW
ting on a b'n, of paper the names of our fe
male acquaintances. 1 went on with:
'There's Ellen Ru:e-can't, be her ; Jane
Green r.or her ; Mny Willis nor her,'
until I had wri:ten do n tho names of
abuunwenty girls without satisfying my
elf as to tho rilit one. 'So, then, AcIn
aros is' really married !' said I to myself.
I fell truly rejoiced that it was kp, nnd I

it would be to drop in of an evening A-ith

her, and a singular feeling of regret when
she was away from homo when 1 called to
spend a social evening; and then there
was a peculiar sensation about my heart
when I saw her engaged closely in con
versation with any of my companions, or
when she bestowed upon them a smile.
In fact I began to feel something more
than friendship towards her. I did not
let her know the state of my mind, but
Lvighcd and frolicked with her as much
as ever. My tiflectioti for her ir.rrpnd
daily. Not knowing, however, but that
my love might prove only momentary,
and wishing to know whether absence
would wear it off for it had always been
my determination, that when I wedded,
it ehould not be merely a union of h inds
but a union of hearts I detei
I without hinting tho object of my journey
j to Maria, or even giving her the slight
est reason to susnect tho nature of mv
j fooling towards her to take the journey,
jand if time did not alter my heart when
1 returned, to offer myself to her. I went
on my journey visited all noted places
mingled in company as much as possible
trifled with tho ladies iu the fashiona
ble way ; fjlill, though surrounded with
beauty in every engaging form though
flatterod and carcssod after all, a thought
of Maria caused' a throb, which none of
the lovely ones around me cculd create.
Her image kept fast hold upon my heart,
and wouldn't leave it. Finding, after an
absenceof six months, thnt the complaint
that caused me to leave home increased
rathei than diminished, I hastened my
return, and arrived home on the aforesaid
first of January.
When I reached Maria's place of abode
and began to ascend the steps in front of
the house, my heart quailed a little. I
beg-in to grow faint hearted, and to think
in what manner I should 'pop the ques
tion. I regretted that I had not studied
my part before I left honn . I hesitated
as i tooK hold or the bell knob my
breath grew shorter, and my nerves shook.
I was relinquishing my hold with the in
tention of taking a short stroll around
the square to think over what to say
in fact, I got half way down the steps,
thinking I would put off my declaration
until another time when tho thought of
we were seated we began to talk on com
mon topics. Shoitly after, I thanked
him for rememlering nie in the distribu
tion of his bridal cako.
'Oh,' said he, ' that was wife's doings;
you must thank her for that.'
' Indeed, husband, 1 knew Hot of our
friend's return, until yoa told mo of it '
' Husband 1 wife ! ' Gracious heavens !
had athunderbolt fell at my feet at the
moment, I should not have been more as
tonished than when 1 heard those words.
I started from my seat my bruin reeled,
aud a sudden faintness came over me. I
should have fallen had I not been suppor
ted by Maria and George Mr. und Mrs
Adams 1
' My dear friend, what is the matter? '
exclaimed both, as I began to revive.
' Nothing nothing at all,' I replied
only a touch of my old complaint a
Uizziners!' As I revived. I added. 1 wiib
your leave I will retire.'
They urged me strongly to stay were
fearful I might have u second attack on
the way home, etc. but in vain. When
I stood in the entry, waiting to bid them
good night, I trembled like an aspen ; and
it was with tho grenteit difficulty I m.ide
out to utter, 'Mrs. Adams good evening.'
It nearly choked me.
When I got homo, and within my room
the first thing I did wa to throw Maria's
wedding,cako into the fiic frosting and
all ; and, moreover, I drove a large ten
penny nail through the card into the bed
post, and then went to bed. I was con
fined to my chamber seven days with a
fever, at the end of which time I got
about aain. I am now quite reconciled
to my fate, and can Bay ' Mrs. Adams '
without hardly a slammer.
Reader the moral: If you are in love,
go instantly and offer yourself. Learn
from this the danger of procrastination.

in having their shells explode almost at

a mortar, the shell is carefully placed with

THE NATIONAL TROUBLItS.

The Committee of the IVace Conven
tion, now in session in Washington, to
which was referred all propositions for a
toaipromisc of cur National difficulties,
aproed, on Wednesday night lust, to the
plan proposed by Hon. Jamos Guthrie, ol
Kentucky. A telegraphic dispatch from
Washington states that Mr. Field, one of
the New York Commissioners, took a
strong stand against the Compromise pro
posed, and thai, other delegates f:om
Northern States, are exerting themselves
most strenuously to defeat it. Still it is
hoped by many that tho r-ronofition will
bo agreed to, and the prospects of a set
tlement of our national difficulties, on an
honorabbbwis, are therefore considered
more promising.
Mr. Guthrie's plon in brief n: First
The re-establishment of the Missouri
Compromise lino. ui:h a provision for tin I
admission of new States into the Union,
when they have the requisite population,
wit.i or without slavery as their constitu
tions shall provide. Sccmd is o territory
shall hereafter bo acquired by the Ur.ited
States without the concurrence of a ma
jority of the Senators of the Stales north
of Mason and Dixon's line, and also a
majority ef the Senators south of said
line; but no treaty by which territory
shall be acquired shall be ratified without
the three fourths vote of the Senators, as
required by the Constitution. Third
Forever prohibits Congress from interfer
ing with the institution of slavery in any
Territory, in the District of Columbia, or
in any other place under tho exclusive
jurisdiction of tho United States, nor
shall the rights of citizenship ever be con
ferred upon persons of African descent.
Fourth Hereafter the paragraph of the
fourth article of the Constitution shall not
be construed to prevent any of the States,
by appropriate legislation, and through
the action of her judicial and ministerial
officers, from enforcing the delivery of
fugitives from labor from any other State
or Territory of the United States to tho
person tc whom such service or labor is
due. Fifth The importation of the Afri
can race into any State or Territory is
forever prohibited. Sixth The first, sec
ond, third and fifth articles of these
amendments, and the third paragraph of
me second section of the first article of
the Constitution, and the third paragraph
of the fourth article thoreof, shall not bo
amended or abolished without the consent
of all the States.

A fev weeks ago, we published an an-
eedDto of a ycung man in New Haven
who wns t! ;cwn out of employment iii
consequence of the hard timc3 and who
manifested great anxiety to get into soma
sort of business lie asked employment
of a gentleman of that city, who inquired ,
if ho had not boon a Wide Awake. The
answer waa, yeu. Tho next question was,
if ho stiii had his uniform? Thin was aU
so puswered affirmatively. The gentle.
man then offered him a dollar a day 30
lor.g as he would wear tho uniform. He
accepted the offr and has made it his
business ever since to appear in hid Wide
Awake habiliments. The Wide Awak
fraternity remonstrated with him about it,
and ho thus justified himself:
"I carried this thing around, day after
day, during the campaign, and made no
thing, but Tost considerable by it. If it
was honorable then, it is equally so now;
and it is giving mo the mans by which
I can pay my board and washing. You
attend to your business, and I will to
mine j but if you cir n't like my style, fur
nish me better employment, and I will
lay down my torch and throw awav my
rig."
We doubt not there are hundreds oF
young mechanics in this town who during
the heat of the late campaign, wasted
time and money with the Wide Awakes,
who ivould now jump at the opportunity
of earning a dollar a day by parading
through tho principal streets in their
uniforms. JVitw Haven Kews.

Some people who once abused Andrew
Jackson without stint now say they wish
he was President, that he might crush
out secession, hang nullifiers, burn Char
leston, &c, &c. They forget that South
Carolina rebellion in ISGO is very differ
ent from that of 1802. Then a largo por
tion of the most prominent citizens oF
South Carolina were openly adverse to
resistance, now they arc united to a man.
Then the surrounding States withdrew
countenance from South Carolina, now
they yield her warm sympathy and sup
port. It is an easy matter to dictate or
censure when clear of responsibility. If
after, I'll do so again."

majority of the Legislature commit all
manner of evil, but from this piece of vil
lainy they must desist. The State is not in
vaded, nor is there danger of invasion or
domestic insuricction. There is, there
fore, no authority in tho Legislature to
"arm the State;" nnd as sure as such a
bill passes, the bonds upon which money
is raised to pay for the arms will never be
paid. Nothe of this fact will at once be
gwen, and the whole nefarious scheme
shall be resisted at every step. Let our
Legislators bear in mind that we still
liuve an uncorrupted Supremo Court in
tho State, and hence that their unconsti.

paper. If the Republicans watit arms, let
them buy themj thcmsolves. We th'nk
