Ciaige the First, and Sophia of Zell.
Historians have generally passed over
as of very little moment, the story of
the consort of George the First. The
following authentic. particulars will in
terest many readers :
•"Sophia,. at the' time of their mar
riage, was only- sixteen years of
. age,
and was -a princess of great personal
charms and mental endowments, yet her
attractions did not retain the affections
of her husband: After she had brought
him a son and a daughter, tie‘neglected
his amiable consort, and attached him
self to a favorite mistress. .
"Such was the situation of Sophia
when Count Konigsmark, -a Swedish
nobleman, arrived at Hanover: He
, was-a man of good figure, and proles.,
sional gallantry ; had been formerly'
enamoured of Sophia at Zell, and was
Supposed to have made - some impres
sion on.her heart. On the sight of her
his passion, which hail_been diminish
ed by absence, broke out with increas
ing violence ; he had the impudence
publicly to renew, his attentions; and
as George was absent at the army, he
made his solicitations with redoubled
aMour. Information of his attachment,
and of his success, vhs conveyed to
Ernest Augustus ; and one evening, as
the Count - came out of her apartment.
and was crossing a .passage, he was put
to death by persons placed to intercept
him, in the presence of the Elector;
and tradition still marks the spot where
this murder was committlid. Sophia
was immediately put under arrest.; and
though she solemnly protested her in
'nocenc'e, yet circumstances spoke
strongly against her. •
"George, who neverloved, his wife,
gave implicit credit to the account of
her infidelity, as related by his father;
consented to tier imprisonment, and ob
tained:from the ecclesiastical consistory
a divoree, which was passed on the
28th of December, 1694. And even
her father, the Duke of Zell, who doat
ed on his only daughters, does not
seem to - have entertained any doubts of
her guilt, for be always continued up
on the strictest terms of friendship with
Ernest Augustus; and his son-in-law.
" The unfortunate Sophia was icon
fined in the castle' of Alden, situated on
the small river Alter, ia the Duchy of
Zell. She, terminated her miserable
existence, after-a
-long captivity of thir
ty-two years r an jhe 13th of November,
1726, in the sixty-first year of her age,
or seven months before the death of
George the First; and she was an
nounced in the " Gazette" under the
title of the Electress Dowager of Han
over.
" During her whole confinement she
behaved 'with 'mildness and dignity;
and on receiving the sacrament . once
every week, never omitted, on that aw
ful occasion, making the-most solenin
asseverations that she was not guilty of
„the crime laid to her charge. Subse
quent circumstances have come to light,
which appear to justify her memory ;
and reports are current in Hanover that
ler Character was basely defamed, and
that she fell a'sacrifice to the jealousy
"and perfidy of the Countess of Platen,
favourite mistress of Ernest Augustus.
Being enamoured of Count Konigs.
mark, who slighted her overtures, jeal
ousy took possession oilier breast; she
determined to sacrifice both the lover
and the princess to her vengeance, and
circumstances favored her design.
"The prince was absent at the army;
Ernest ,Augustus was a man of warm
paihionS and violent temper, easily ir
ritated, incapable of control. Sophia
herself had treated Count Kongismark
with regard and attention, and the lov
er was hot-headed, self-sufficient, prid
ing himself on his personal accomplish
ments, and accustomed to succeed in
affairs of gallantry. -
" Those who .exculpate Sophia as
sert either that a common vi t was
construed into act of criminality, or that
the Countess of Platen, at a late hour,
summoned Count 'Comgsmark in the
name of the princess, though without
her connivance ; that on being introduc
ed Sophia was surprised at this intru
sion, that on quitting the apartment he
was discovered by Ernest Augustus,
whom the countess had
placed in
.the
gallery, and was instantly assassinated
by, persomi whom she .had suborned
for that purpose. _
" Many pesons of credit at . Hanover
have riot scrupled, since the death of
Ernes; Augustus and George the-First,
to express their belief that the imputa
tion cast on Sophia was false and un
just. It is also reported that her hus
band having made an offer of reconcil
iation, she gave this noble and disdain
ful answer of haughty virtue unconi;,
scions of stain: "If what I ammo*.
ed ',Cis true, I am unworthy of his bed;
and if my accusation is false, he lei un
worthp of me. I will not" accept his
offers."
A GOOD SOCIETY. 411. Boston they
have self-examiningsociety." One
of the articles of the constitution of the
society is as follows ;
" That there shall be no public or
private meeting of this society on any
appointed days, to manage its concerns,
or too hear lectures delivered before it;
but it shall be the duty of every day,
and listen to the lectures of his own
conscience."
Tem and the British Polity.
The' British' policy 'unquestionably
is,to"extend' her commerce and her
power iheieier, she can plant them;
and the statesmen who_have carried on
this policy—and. here whigs and tories
are one—have never failed on emergen
'cies to figure it out plain that thel.lsacred
influences of humanity " and the in
terests of her manufacturers are identi
fied ! They are identiol when the
iron hoof grinds the poor Hindoo to the
dust, or when British grenadiers mow
down ( the Chinese as the scythe cuts
the grass. They have been identical'
:all through the centuries of wrong Eng
land has inflicted on Ireland. They
always will be identical wherever Great
Britain deems it necessary to get anew
•foothold on any spot on the globe. It
was this policy and-this identity of in
terest that prompted Palmerston to
seize on the golden opportunity for an
with Texas.. And in consequence of
this alliance the premier will probably
avow the right to interfere, and undoubt
edly ourination will, we hope to a man,
resist , this. right. President Tyler has
said. ' , the question is purely American,"
and we believe he has spoken the voice
of Americans. President Monroe de.
Glared that no European interference
shonld be allowed on this continent;
and the declaration, which did - so much
to raise our national character, will be
adhered to. We shall soon know the
course Great Britain will pursue. She
goes on adding to her dominion, terri
tory after territory, as she has recently
conquered Scinde, and no .. right-to in
terfere" is claimed on the part of this
country. The European_ powers can
go on carving nations in pieces and di
viding the Spoils, and no 2' right to in
terfere" is heard from this country... 7--
And is it to be endured that two indepen
dent American nations cannot treat to
gether for their mutual ' interests with-
out having this arrogant claim thrust in
upon them ? If now this great aggran
dizing power, Great Britain, sees fit to
scowl and bully us, the only effect will
be to make ten friends of annexation in
this country where there is now o
z
friend to it. It will not weigh afe t •
er in preventing the .. lone star" of ex
as from being numbered with th twen
ty-six that now fl oat upon the 'spang
led banner."—Post. /
A FEDERAL Teicx.- 7 , The Federa
lists, afraid as ever to c ome out in their
true colors; are resorting, to a mean ex
pedient to make partizans, out'of men
who are either opposed to CLAY, or
are indifferent in - Ahe contest. Instead
of forming CLAY or BANK clubs, is
they ought to do to be honest, the im
pudent imposters carry out Bills for the
signature of men favorable to a " Tar
iff Club," and then, they parade the
signers as enrolled under the banner of
CLAY. We caution the friends of the
Tariff—he staid in Congress till the
Bill was about to come up, fighting for
the Bank and Banlirupt Bills, and then
". made tracks" for Ashland. He nor
his satellites are not to trusted.
WHIG Evinrvcc.:--The whigs are
trying to clear Mr. Clay of the ..bargain
and intrigue," by . producing Mr. Ad
ams, one tit the interested parties, as
evidence, whom they declare .. would
not be guilty of alalsehood." If Mr.
Adam's veracity ib of such high order
with the whigs, they must certainly
endorse the remarks he once made in a
letter to Dutee J. Pierce, in which he
declared that the whig party were
.. bound together only by a cement of
hatred to every man of purer princi
ples than themselves."
A MARFA NEST.-The - Advertiser
has found a • mare's nest at last. Mr.
Clay, in one of his Northern faced par.
agraphs,gives an equivocal endorse
ment to the present tariff, and the Ad
vertiser seems to be as tickled about it
as a boy with a speckled handled pen
knife. We don't like to mar our
friend's plea Sure but is proper for us to
say to those who wish to know, that
Mr. Clay, in the same letter, says that
the exorbitant parts of the present tariff
ought to be repealed.—Newark Post.
INCIDENTAL s iPROTECTION.--The
Maine Age say Col. Times views
on this subject are sound. He is op
posed to direct tips, and in favor of
supporting government by means , of'?
tariff. The want !! of the government
require a tariff, Which will be high
enough to afford all reasonable protec
tion, so that the question may be con
sidered as settled. Mr. Clay's declared
views are precisely the same as those
of Col. Polk."

mind is fast approaching to the deter
mination'to purchase peace at any sac
rifice, and that they will be driven - to
accept such favorable regulations and
propositions from England as will place
their commercial interests ashore their
present depressed condition.
CLAY FOR TEXAS-.-THE SOUTORRR
FACE.-Mr. Clay has written a letter to
the editor of the Tuscaloosa (Ala.)
Monitor, in which he says, "personal
ly I could have no objection to the an
nexation of Texas; but I certainly
would not be willing to see the existing
Union dissolved, or seriously jeepard
ed, for the sake of acquiring Texas."—
As no one is wild enough to suppose
that there is the slightelt danger to the
permanency of the Union from the an
nexation of Texas, this, of course,
amounts to an open declaration in favor
of annexation, and is designed as an off'
set to his letter of the 17th of 'April
against annexation. This is Clay all
over—high tariff views for the / North,
and low tariff views for the Southoind
anti-Texas views for the ;Worth, and
pro-Texas views for the 'outh. We

ANECDOTE/ OF TUE PENNSYLVANIA
Winsars / INSiJIMECTION.—The march
of the Macpherson Blues against the
insurgents in 1794.—" An anecdote is
related of the citizen soldiers" in this
expedition which is worthy of being
recorded.. The person referred to was
a German by birth, of the name of
Koch, and was known in Philadelphia
in his day, as a large out-door under
writer. He died in some ten or twelve
years, since, in Paris, leaving a fdrtune
estimated .at' $1,200.000. Mr. Koch
like young Shaw, was a private in the
Macpherson Blues. It fell to his lot
one night to be stationed sentinels over
a baggage waggon. The weather t was
cold, raw, stormy and wet. This set
the sentinel musing. After remaining
on post half an hour, be was heard call
ing lustily, " Corporal of der guartz—
Corporal of der guartz." The corporal
came, and inquired what was wanting.
Koch wished to -be relieved for a few
minutes, having something to say to
Macpherson.—He was' gratified, and
in a few minutes he stood in the pres
ence of the general. " Well, Mr.
Koch, what is your pleasure ?" asked
Macpherson. " Why. yeneral, I wish
to know what may be , der value of dat
d—d waggon over which I am ahead
nel ?" Howthe devil should I know;
Koch?" " Well, somet'ng approzi
mative--not to be barticular." " A
thousand dollars, perhaps." " Very
well, Yeneral Macpherson, I write a
shock for der money, and den I will go
to beds."
G WING IT tri. !—The Gettysburg
Republican Compiler says : one of
the whig orators of this place declared
recently at one-ot their meetings, that
!. So sure as General Markle is defeat
ed in October, so sure will-Polk carry
Pennsylvania in November !" This
is significant. There is no intelligent
man in the State who entertains the
most remote idea of Markle's success."
FATTENING FOWLS WITH POTATOES.
—There is a great profit in feeding
geese, turkies, and fowls of every sort,
with potatoes and meal mixed. They
will fatten in nearly one half the time
that they will on any kind of corn or
even meal itself. The potatoe must
be bruised fine while hot, and the meal
added when the !mush is given to them.
• PURSUIT of nurrit.—The mind that
is open to conviction, and determined
to pursue truth wherever she may guide,
will derive lessons, even from its own
mist4es, which may prove salutary to
itself and to the world. Oh ! how
grand is that character that can glory of
immutable truth ?
