I almost tremble as I gaze Lest it should glide and pass From the surface of the metal, Like a shadow from a glass. Oh, I would labor many an hour, And journey many a mile, To catch the tender sweetness Of that delicious smile ! There never Was a lovelier From lips of woman won, And truly could be copied by No artist save the Sun. We call especial attention to the,following can did and interesting letter from Mr Buchanan, in re ply to that addressed him by some of his friends in Baltimore : BALTIMORE, Feb. 19th, 1852 Hun James Buchanan Sir :—Learning that you will pass through our city on your way home from the seat of govern ment, we feel desirous of tendering to you some ev idence of our earnest appreciation of your distin guished public services in behalf of the cherished interests of our nation through a long sei ies of years; and particularly throughout the recent sum , - gle in our neighboring State, where the combined elements of faction had raged so furiously as to sad den the hearts of the union-loving Democracy of the country. We look back with pride and exul tation, Sir, to your life of devotion to•the democratic principles of the Constitution—to your manly and powerful support of the administration of General Jackson—to your eminent services during the eventful period of the last democratic administra tion, and to yo r zealous counsels in favor of the maintenance of the compromise measures of the last Congress; and, while holding in grateful remem brance those evidences of your patriotism as a statesman, we are actuated by a lively sense of your exalted talents and private virtues, and by the re collection of your gallant conduct, when, in 1814, you left your home in the interior, to join in the defence of our city against a foreign foe. The compromise measures having now been finally settled, we confidently expect that all dis sensions in our psrty to which they gave birth, will be speedily healed, and 'that the Democracy of the country, thoroughly united, will proceed to gain new victories upon its ancient principles of State rights and an enlightened economy, and strict re sponsibility in the expenditure of public money. To afford us an opportunity of evincing our warm regard for you as a statesman and citizen, we beg of you to accept an invitation from us to partake of a public dinner in this City at such time as may be most convenient to yourself. We are, very respectlully, , your friends and fellow citizens: John Nelson, Wm. F. Giles, Ramsay McHenry, Edward Palmer, Wm. A. Boyd, William Frick, Joshua Vansant , L. Bowen, J.

GENTLEMEN In returning home through your city on Saturday last, 1 had the unexpected honor of receiving your kind invitation to partake of a public dinner at such time as might best suit my own convenience. For this distinguished and val ued token of your regard, please to accept my Most grateful acknowledgements ; and, whilst regretting that circumstances, which it would be too tedious to explain, will deprive me of the pleasure of meet ing you at the festive board, you may -rest assured that I shall ever highly prize the favorable opinions you'express of my 'poor public services. To the city of Baltimore I have ever been attach ed by strong ties. In early life I bad selected it as the place where to practice my profession ; and nothing prevented me from carrying this purpose into effect, but my invincible reluctance, at the last moment, to leave my native State. The feeling which prompted me, in 1814, during the last war -with Great Britain, to march as a private to Balti more, a circumstance to which you kindly allude, resulted froth a patriotism so universal throughout Pennsylvania, that the honor which may fall to the lot of any one of the thousands of my fellow-citi zens who volunteered their services on that trying occasion, scarcely deserves to be mentioned. If I rightly read "the signs of the times," there has seldom been a period when the democratic party. of the eountry, to which you and I are warmly attached, was in greater danger of suffering a de feat than at the present moment. In order to avert this catastrophe, we must mutually forget and, forgive past dissensions, suffer "by-gores to be by.o Bones," and commence a new career, keeping con stantly in view the ancient and long established land-marks of the party. Most, if not all the great questions of policy, which formerly divided us from our political opponents, have been settled in our favor. No person, at this day, thinks of re-establish ing another national Bank, or repealing the Inde pendent Treasury, or distributing the proceeds of the Public lands among the several States, or abol ishing the veto power. On these great and important questions, the whigs, af'er a long and violent strug gle, have ;yielded ; and, for the present, at least, would seem to stand upon the Democratic platform. The Compromise measures are now a "finality"— those who opposed them honestlx and powerlully, and who still believe them to be wrong. having patriotically determined to acquiesce in them for the sake of the Union, provided they shall be faith fully carried into execution. On what issues, then, can we go before the coun try and confidently calculate upon the support of the American people at the approaching Presidential election? I answer unhesitatingly that we must fall back, as you suggest, upon those fundamental and time-honored principles which have 'divided us from our political opponents since the beginning, and which, from the very nature of the Federal Constitution, must continue to divide us from them until the end. We must inscribe upon our bannerF, a sacred regard for the reserved rights of the States— a strict construction of the .Constitution—a denial to Congress of all powers not clearly granted by that instrument, and a rigid economy in public ex, penditures. These expenditures ligve now reached the enor mous sum of fifty millions of dollars per annum , and, unless arrested in their advance by the strong arm of the Democracy of the country, may, in the course of a few years, reach one hundred millions. The appropriation of money to accomplish great national objects sanctioned by the Constitution, ought to he on a scale commensurate with our power and resources as a nation—but, its eipendi tore ought to be conducted under the guidance of enlightened economy and strict responsibility. am convinced that our expenses, might be consid erably reduced below the present standard, not only without detriment, but with positive advantage both to the government and the people. An excessive and lavish expenditure of public money, though in it highly ,pernicious, is as nothing when compared with the disastrous influ ence it may exert upon the character of our free Institutions. A strong tendency towards extrava gance is the great political evil of the present day ; and this ought to be firmly resisted. Congress is now incessantly importuned from every quarter to make appropriations for all sorts of projects.— oney, money from the National Treasury is con ntly demanded to enrich contractors, speculators, and agents; and these projects are gilded over with every allurement which can be imparted to them by ingenuity and talent. Claims which had been condemned by former decisions and had become rusty with age, have been again revived and have been paid, principal and interest. Indeed there seems to be one general rush to obtain money from the Treasury on any and every pretence. What will be the inevitable consequence of such lavish expenditures? Are they not calculated to disturb the nicely adjusted balance between the Federal and State Governments, upon the preserva tion of which depend the harmony and efficiency of our system? Greedy expectants from the Federal Treasury will regard with indifference, if not with contempt, the Governments of the several States.— The doctrine of State rights will be laughed to scorn by such individuals, as an obsolete abstraction un worthy of the enlightened spirit of the age. The corrupting power of money will be felt throughout the length and breadth of the land ; and the Democ racy, led on by the hero and sage of the Hermitage, will bave in vain put down the Bank of the United States, if the same fatal influence for which it was condemned, sh :II be exerted and fostered by means drawn from the Public Treasury. To be liberal with their own money but spar ing of thab of the Republic was the glory of dis tinguished public servants among the ancient Romans. When this maxim was reversed, and the public money was employed by artful and ambit tious demagogues fo secure their own aggrandize ment, genuine liberty soon expired. It is true that the forms of the Republic continued for many years ; but the animating and inspiring saul had fled for ever. I entertain no serious apprehensions that we shall ever reach this point, yet we may still profit by their example. With sentiments of the highest respect, I remain your friend and fellow citizen, JAMES BUCHANAN. John Nelson, William F. Giles, John 0. What , ton, John Morris, Carroll Spence, William P. Pos. der, and John A. Bowen, Esqs., and others.. iIJ The following article, from the Erie Neer ver, on a subject which is now agitating the public mind to a considerable extent, is one of the most sensible arguments we have yet seen on either side of the question. We, therefore, commend it to the attention of all our readers, whether for or against the new fangled doctrine of intervention: A Word on Kossuth and Intervention Though our owMocality has not run Kossuth mad, we deem it no more than due to our readers, and the "truth of history," to publish the letter in an other column, written to the New York Courier and Enquirer. by Mr. Szemere, President of the Hun garian Ministerial Council when Kossuth was Gov ernor. We knoll• it is fashionable in newspaper dom to shout "long live Kossuth,' and we would not be considered as wishing to wage war against Fashion, nevertheless it has always struck us as a little singular that a leader, as great as his friends claim Kossuth to be, should have surrendered his position and his power to one he had long suspected and denounced as a traitor. Neither is it at all char acteristic of a great captain to go parading through the country; publishing to the world, on all con ceivable occasions, the preparations he is making to wage war upon the 'ruling powers of the conti nent—telling Russia and Austria that he has con tracted here for so many muskets, that he has de posited there so much money, and that ere long be will be upon them with a host of "sympathisers" and his coffers full of "material aid." That was not the way of Napoleon, by all odds the greatest Captain of the Age. When he struck, the enemy knew it not until the blow fell. His plans were confided to none but himself, much less were they suffered to become the staple of newspaper criti cism and wonderment. But we did not take up our pen to enter into an elaborate discussion of the merits or demerits of Kossuth as a leader, but merely to call attention to Mr. Szemere's letter, and to enter our protest against the doctrine of intervention. What Kossuth's plans are is not material to us, so far as they relate to Hungary and do not interfere with the long estab lished and cherished principles of our own govern ment. But when he and his friends, agitators who only rise upon the bubbles of the hour, attempt to introduce a new theory, and that theory leads to inevitable war, we think it time every friend of the Constitution as it is now, and has been administer ed, should protest against its, introduction. It will not do to say that "intervention," peaceable inter vention," "moral suasion," is going to restrin Fran cis Joseph, or Nicholas, from doing as their edu cation and their instincts teach them, in regard to Hungary. Talk about "moral suasion" with a Cos sack! Nothing short of the "moral suasion" of a Kentucky rifle, or a Colt's revolver, will reach his conscience! And why? because he has never been taught any force but brute' force; and what is true of a people is true of their Government. Tho the ory is beautiful, we know, of a community of na tions restraining one another when wrong—of cor recting each other's faults, of living in peace and amity, of yielding to peaceable, moral, argumen tative 'intervention.' The millenium is also a beau- tiful theory, and we like to hear an eloquent di vine discourse upon it, but the milenium has not yet come, neither has the time arrived when "mor al suasion" and 'peaceable intervention" will re• strain the Russian bear from partaking when he is hungry, or the British lion from grasping territory when it can. But England is to join with us, ex cllim our enthusiastic advocates of the new doc trine. Then England is upon the anxious seat, is she? She, who set the ruthless savages upon our frontiers to scalping women and children—whose grasping ambition has made the boast true that the beat of her morning revellie is heard from the ris ing to the setting of the sun, and who even now is discussifig in her public journals the most feasible manner of shooting the Kaffirs? She is upon the anxious seat of nations? She is ready to adopt the "moral suasion," . "peaceable intervention" doctrine —to call home her troops, abandon her conquests, and become a saint in the family of nations!— Glorious! How poor Ireland will rejoice! What a jubilee there will be among her starving millions when they hear this news! How her exiled pat riots in Australasia will thank the genius and elo- quence of Kossuth for having wrought this won defful change in their destiny!—for having brodght the boasted "mistress -of the seas" upon her knees itr-the fullness of this glorious millenium when di plomatic protests have taken the place of cannon balls, and the songs of national prayer meetings su persede the roll of musketry and the clash of sabres! What a picture for a member of the "Peace Soci ety," but how ridiculous when we come down to sober matter of fact events as they actually are.— No, 'intervention' to be effective must be backed by the power to enforce it, else it, will not be under stood, by those whose only theory of power is fear and force. We may protest against Russianinterven tion in the affairs of Hungary—we may cut off all dip lomatic relations with Austria, but as long as the Cossack remains true.to his race and his sovereignty and Nicholas has faith in his "divine right" to'rule— as long as Francis Joseph has no fear of any thing more potent than "moral suasion," and "peaceable intervention," just so long will they both laugh at our intermeddling and do with Hungary as to them seems to be best. It our people wish to try what virtue there is in "peaceable intervention," there is an excellent op portunity in attempting to persuade England to re lease the Irish Exiles; and when they have accom plished that, they have but to send their "moral suasion" ambassador across the channel and he will find a wide field for the exercise of his functions in behalf of the imprisoned and banished patriots of "TUT COUNTRY IS THE MOST PROSPEROUS, WHEN LABOR COMMANDS TER GREATEST REWARD."--Buchanan CITY OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY - MORNING, MARCH 9, 1852. France. We do not believe there is a man in the Union that is not fully persuaded that Louis Na poleon has trampled out every spark of liberty in France, yet backed as he is by Russia and sustained by those he tyranizes over, what does he care for the execrations and denunciations of the world ? Nothing ! He laughs it to scorn. And so it is with Nicholas of Russia. As long as his legions are obedient to his beck, and the Cossack's spear is between his breast and the foe, he is invulnerable to fear or argument. "Peaceable intervention," then, is a delusion—the phantasy:of the dreamer— and for any thing else we, as a nation, are not pre pared. Upon whom should the selection fall is the next question. I express no opinion for the North, but for the South. And it is so obvious to my mind that JAMES Buciusax should be the man, that 1 cannot believe there would be the least hesitation on the part of the Southern delegates to concentrate upon him. In his advocacy of the just rights of the South under the Constitution, in his early oppo sition to the slavery agitation in Congress, dating back seventeen years, he is placed so far in advance of any and all other Northern candidates, that there can be no room for hesitation that our delegates would unite on Mr. Buchanan. His opinions and principles are not for the nonce; there is nothing of Pres'dent-seeking in them. They have been held so lorfg, maintained so inflexibly, and expressed so independently at all times and under all circum stances, as to put at rest every suspicion of that sort. I need not trace Mr. Buchanan's political course since 1835, the period of the first dawn of abolition in Congress, to prove this. It must be familiar to every hall read politician in the South. But if there was any question of expediency of selecting Mr. Buchanan, prior to the late Pennsyl vania election, the brilliant termination of that con test utter the, peculiar circumstances attending it, must have dispelled all doubt. In no Northern State have the lines been so clearly drawn upon the ques tion of a faithful enforcement of the compromise measures and an unflinching opposition to the fur -1 ther progress of abolition. The Democratic presses and speakers, up to the opening of the polls, resoun ded with appeals to the people to come to the res cue, and pronounce a last and final condemnation of the abolition principles of Gov. Johnston and his supporters. The democrats invited the issue, forced ft upon their adversaries. The Christiana tragedy, which came off in the beat of the canvass, and the official delays and delinquencies, of Gov. Johnston growing out of the occurrence, drew the lines still sleeper and wider. The clarion tones of Mr. Bu chanan's voice rung in various parts of the State, calling on the democracy to arise and vindicate the tarnished honor of the Commonwealth. He insist. ed that the first step towards effacing the dark stain imprinted upon her escutcheon at Christiana, was the election of Bigler, and the condemnation of John ston. Never did a Southern statesman take a more bold, comprehensive or national ground, in his speeches. He contended that the result would de termine whether Pennsylvania was any longer en titled to be called the "key stone"—as it would be an unequivocal declaration that she was either for or against the compromises of the constitution and the further agitation of slavery. He insisted that the . South had rights—that they had been violated —that the South looked with hope and anxiety to the election of Bigler and the defeat of Johnston— and the success of Bigler would be regarded as a fresh guarantee that Pennsylvania would stand by and maintain the Constitutional rights of the South, and that it was due to the South to give the guar antee, Pennsylvania's response to the patriotic appeals of her favorite son and the democratic press, is be fore the country, arid Messrs. Editors, I shall not soon forget the thrill of joy which -I felt at its an nouncement. And now I ask is it not due to that gallant State,—is it not due to ourselves, to extend to her a greeting and a congregation upon the late glorious triumph, that shall bt worthy ofher and ourselves? No non-slaveholding State has ever uttered so unequivocal a determination to stand by us as an auxiliary in the maintenance of our just rights. Let us not slight so warm and fraternal a demcnstration. But let the Southern democracy tender to Pennsylvania the highest compliment we can pay,—the nomination of her favorite son to the highest office in the nation's gilt. It is demand ed by justice—it is no less demanded by interest and our love of the Union. James Buchanan nom inated by the Southern democracy, and elected too, (which would be but a seqUence to the nomination,) would bring Pennsylvania to our side in all future struggles with the federal power against its usur ping instincts. Not by Halves The following "whole hog" resolutions were adopted, Jan. 19, 1852, at Carlyle, Illinois. They, at least, are impartial : Resolved, That we are in favor of the freedom of the people of down-trodden Hungary, of down-trod den Ireland, of down-trodden Germany, of down-trod den Poland, and also the freedom of the "rest of mankind." . . 2. If Russia does not respect the inalienable rights of the Magyar ' England those of the Irish, and France those of the "rest of mankind,' we are for intervention, if politic, and if not politic, then for non-intervention ; that if the overgrown powers of Eur Ope don't respect freedom, we will make them do it, if we can; and if we can't, we won't.

MARRIAGE. Marriersons, or those contemplating mar riagre bein aware of physical weakness, should 'immediately consult Dr. J. and be restored to per fect health. • . OFFICE, No. 7, South FREDERICK Street, BALTIMORE, Md., on the left hand side, going from Baltimore street, 7 doors from the corner.— Be particular in observing the name add number or you will mistake the place. DR. JOHNSTON, Member of the Royal College of Surgeons, Lon. don, Graduate from one of the most eminent Col leges of the United States and the greater part of whose life has been spent in the Hospitals of Lon don, Paris, Philadelphia, and elsewhere, has affect ed some of the most astonishing cures that were ever known. Many troubled with ringing in the ears and head when asleep,great nervousness, being alarmed at sudden sounds, and bashfulness, with frequent blushing, attended, sometimes, with de rangement of mind, were cured immediately. TARE PARIICULAR NOTICE. Dr. J. addresses all those who have injured themselves by private and improper indulgencies, :hat secret and solitary habits, which ruin both body and mind, unfitting them for either business or society. These are some of the sad and melancholy el fects produced by early habits of youth, viz : Wealtness of the back and limbs, Pains in the head, Dimness of Sight, Loss of Muscular Power, Pal. pitation of the Heart, Dyspepsia, Nervous Irrita.. bility, Derangement of the Digestive Functions, General Debility, Symptoms of Constimption, &c. Mentally.—The fearful effects on the mind are much to he dreaded": Loss of Memory, Confusion of Ideas, Depression of Spirits, Evil of Forebo• ding, Aversion of Society, Self Distrhst, Love of Solitude, Timidity, &c., are some of the evils pro duced. NERVOUS DEBILITY. Weakness of the system, Nervous Debility and premature decay generally arises from the destruct ive habit of youth, that solitary practice so fatal to the healthful existence of man, and it is the young who are the most apt to become its Victims from an ignorance of the dangers to which they subject themselves. Parents and Guardians are often mis led with respect to the coupe or source of disease in their sons and wards. Alas! how Mien ds they ascribe to other causes the wasting of the frame, Palpitation of the Heart, Dyspepsia, Indigestion, Derangement of the Nervous System, Cough and Symptoms of Consumption, also those serious Mental effects, such as loss of Meniory, Depres sion of Spirits or peculiar fits of Melancholy, when the truth is they have been caused .by indulging Pernicious but alluring practices, destructive to both Body and Mind. 'thus are swept from ex istence thousands who might have been of use to their country,.a pleasure to their friends, an mo ment to society. WEAKNESS OF THE ORGANS immediately cured and full vigor restored. Oh, how happy have hundreds of misguided youths been made, who have been soddenly resin- red to health from the devastations of those terrific maladies which result from indiscretion. Such persons, before contemplating MARRIAGE, should reflect that a sound mind and body are the most necessary requisites to promote connubial happiness. Indeed, without this; the journey thro' life becomes a weary pilgrimage ; the prospect hourly darkens to the view ; the mind becomes shadowed with despair, and filled with the melan choly reflection that the happiness of another be comes blighted with our own. Let no false delica cy prevent you, but apply immediately. He who places himself under the care of Dr. JOHNSTON, may religiously confide in his hem ( or as a_ Gentleman, and confidently' rely upon his skill as a Physician TO STRA - NGERS.... . . . The many thousands cured at this institution within the last ten years, and the numerous im• portant Surgical Operations performed by Dr. J., witnessed by the Reporters of the papers and ma. ny other persons, notices of which have appeared again and again before rho public, is a sufficient guarantee that the afflicted will find a skilful and honorable physician. N. B.—Shun the numerous pretenders who call themselves Physicians, and apply to DR. JOHN STON. Be not enticed from this office.

It is made en tirely of Iron, both Frame and Gearing. The Jour nals are Cast-Steel—its weight in 600 lbs. On trial it has proved itself capable of performing from 50 to 100 per cent. more work than other Powers with the same labor of the team. It is warranted to hold 8 horses. I have also completed a combined THRESHER AND CLEANER, which is capable of Threshing and Cleaning from 300 to 500 bushels of wheat per day, with from 6 to 8 Horses, and an equal number of bands. 4 horses can thresh, with it from 100 to 200 bushels per day of wheat, and 400 to 600 of oats. It is very convenient for those who follow Threshing, and for two-or more farmers to own in company ; it is more convenient to move than any machine in use. The Machine stands on the wag on while threshing—the Power is, loaded on the same wagon in moving—two horses are sufficient to move it • it will save enough labor in threshing 2000 bushels.-t%ciy its extra cost.: It will thresh in the field or by stack as conveniently as in a barn.
