The Whig Party.:
The Whig party is - it great and pow
serfid party, aboundingin wealth,talent,
and, as we are perfectly willing to con
cede, alai} quota of patriatistn. It has.
contained all these 'elements of great
ness mere or less..from the first organi
zet4in -of: parties in this country, Whe
tffeF under the naive of federalist, an.
gb-it.mericani . , the. anti-French . party,
the anti-Warparty, national republicans,
native Americans, anti-Stares rights
/DM the high • tariff party, the bank
daily, the modern Whig party, or its
; present tide- 7 the anti Texas party.—
Throughout all its changes; it has.taken
good care,to"seize upon . the cities and
towns of the country; to get the con

institutions ; and to fill up the learned
professions with its disciples thus keep

service, an innnense' force of educated
men to operate on pubtre - opinion in
the banking houses at the, altar, in tile

fors of the sick. Instances of this sort
.or influence are too numerous to be
particularized. -Many a democrat, in
volved in pecuniary
_difficulties, has
been compelled 'by the directors of a
_bank to grow lukewarm, or see his
wife ,and children turned out I:,f
.doors
by ; tlfel sheriff. Many have been sha
ken iiftheir faith by the eloquence of
legalladvisers. Many a convert has
been made by the insinuating address
of an accomplished physician, operat

and' numerous indeed arei the political
sinners ,that have been convinced. by

ever had these powerful; moral auxil
iaries at its\ , back. were con
spicuous during the reign of the elder
Adams; when the sublime docrines of
the American revolution, stained in
deed • with excesses incidental to the
111'1011%v transition, were shaking Europe
with the
,power of
,a thousand earth
quakes. Then it was that the money
ed power—first 'suggested by Hamil
ton—was brought, with all its adjuncts,
to stay - the progress of liberal principles,
and prevent the election of Thomas
Jefferson. We notice these influences
during Mr. Madison's adniinistration.
when the clergy, in a certain quarter
of the Union, profaned the sanctuary
with . political harangues, and prayed for
the success of the Prince Regent and
his mercenaries over the bloodthirsty
AWlioctats " fighting, for their country.
We again note' them liarticularly after
the election of Andrew Jacks On. The
mighty enginery of the United States
Bank. with its hundreds of satelite cot.-
porations,•v.-ielding -an influence over
professions and classes too enormous
to calculate, and nine-tenths of the capi
talists of the country, with their co
*Partners and dependants, were all band
ed together to sustain federal principles,
and break down the administration.—
They wielded their power with tre
mendous effect and the most savage
tyranny. Wherever the banks obtained
the ascendancy. persecutions were com
menced,-limited only by the restraints
of the law. Democrats were, in many
quarters, refused all peCuniary aid,
driven forth from their professions, and
put under the ban wherever it was pos
sible to do so. But still the fortress of
democracy, its foundations deeply plan
ted in the affeetions of a free people,
remained firm. In vain the enemy
brought to bear upon it, in the shape of
the influences we have . specified,
dams. monstrois .catapults and battering iaras.
The citadel of democracy stood unsha
ken—the flag of the.eonstitutioh waved
in triumph on ia loftiest tower, and the
- moneyed power was defeated. It ral
lied again to prevent the election of
'Martin Van Buren, art!l again the peo
ple had virtue enough ,to resist its
flueneeS. Four years afterwards, Gen
eral Harrison was indeed elected, but
that was no defeat,of the democracy;
14, in that canvass. the federal party
disguised or repudiated all its principles,
and rallied under a venerable.soldier,
whose ancestors fought Curthe republic,
land who had signalized his own career
by nan►erous acts of gallantry and pat-
notism. The very man that they elec
ted on the ticket with General Harri
son, has demonstrated that his election
was not the triumph of bank party,
for we. have seen him, with undaunted
flrniness, thrice/employ the veto power
• of the constitution to crush' the mon
strous corporation they wished to fasten
upon the country. I Tbs . far, then, de
mocraCy has been in the main, victor
noes, and the simple, .rePublican fea
tures of our constitution 'remain un
changed. But we underrate the skill,
the coura,cce, the perseverance, and the
polder of our adversaries, if we pre- .
sume upon preserving them without a
turious . struggle. 'Look . at, the past.—
As often as we 'disperse them, they
rise up under a new cognomen. If we
defeat the FEDERALISTS; at the very
.next election we have tolight the na
tional rePublicaris. We 'whip "THEN,
and in four years the bank party - start

anti-Texas - men, marching,under the,
same old flag they hoisted against Jell
fersiin,Pdetlison, Jackson - l - and.l 7 nn Bu
ren; and determined to force their bank
and their tariff upon the.people.. They
seem to enjoy a sort 'of . immortality,
and at every metempsychosis preserve
the same principles. •It is rather an
noying, indeed, to have to fight so of
ten ; but then there is comfort' in the
fact that we are always victorious. Our
prospects now are better than they ever,
were at the commencemen t of any pre
vious campaign. We - have - broken
&At, if not annihilated, the great lead
ing elements of whig strength berets

chants; mechanics, tradesmen. and.plan
ters have learned to live and prosper
without banks. No man now forces a
laugh, at the dry jokes of a usurer, or
takes off his hat to a bank director, be
cause of his paidial position. The
breed of street sycophants, todies, lick
spittles; ~ bottle-holders. pimps, and
bank bullies, has wonderfully dimin
ished ;• and men may think, and even
speak for ilieniselves. without danger
of insult or .opuression. The mighty

good at curing or converting, and de
mocratic parsons in abundance ; but
some how or other, they will not preach
pOlitics, but come themselves rigidly
to peace-making among all men, and
the high duties of their sacred, mission.
The whigs, then, it will be seen: go in
tar this contest, stripped of their two
great monopolies, fighting under their
old issues, with less real strength than
heretofore, led on by a leader bold but
imprudent, experienced but unfortunate,
and now almost desperate from the re
collection - of frequent defeats. On the
other hand, the democracy stand more
vigorous, more united, more zealous,
more confident than ever, better pre
pared and more anxious for the conflict.
We are animated by the memory of our
former successes, and stimulated to ex
ertions greater than ever. by the glorious

but the spread of free principles, the pre

solemnly, that, as things stand at pre

The Burial A- Fragffieht,
There was joy , on earth—The twitter-
ing swallow, as it darted:along - in sun
shine and shade, heeded, not the bitter
'millings of affliction and distress--the
wild bird in its noiseless flight—sortlY
silent, as falls the lino* 'flake, seemed
unmindful of wo, as it flashed 'its wing
across the vision. like the thought of a
I dream during the hushed hours of mid
night, and vanished as suddenly. To
I me the sight of their joyous felicity
brought gladness—the sound of their
mirth fell cold upon the heart—it seem
-I.ed but bitter mockery, and spoke of
days departed. The bright and langu
ishing skies seemed sensible that they
were over ruin and decay ' • that one of
'hope's fairest flowers had drooped and
died ; and now—even now—was to be
laid in earth's cold bosom.
I bad seen the Child ;in its guileless
beauty. when it was, a thing all glowing
with health, innocence and joy- 7 4 hed
seen it folded iti the arms of her th.t
borelt, in all the overwhelming fond
ness of a mother's love—l had heard
that little voice ringing its joyfull, note
like sweetest music--;-had seen . those
little hands stretched to the bosom of
its mother. twining about her like ten
drilsround the parent stem. But now
her blessing. fier youngest, her loveli
est slept—not on the soft bosom of a
Mother's tenderness—but with the quiet
dead. The voice was hushed and si
lent as an unstrung harp ! Death,
death ! how lovely canst thou be !
Though pale and lifeless, it wore a
smile passionless and pure as the cherub
of immortality—it had nothing of- the
corpse about it, but its whiteness—no
thing of the grave but its stillness. So
beautiful he seemed, like the lamb
decked with a flowery garland for the
sacrifice. I could fain have lain down
by its side, in the cold bosom of our
common mother, on the dark and silent
hill.
Thou weepest, fond mother—oh !
well thou mavest. Hard is it for thee
to lay thy loved one low in the damp
earth, beneath the cold clods of the val
ley—hard is it to reflect that this thy
child of peerless beauty, will never
more raise its rqsv lips to thine, in all
the fondnesi of childhood's warm affec
tion. Ah ! these are recollections that
weigh upon the soul, even to overpow
ering. Memory tells thee thou art de
solate ; it tells too, of playful smiles,
of a thousand soft and winning ways
that twine around a mother's bosom, it
tells of the sweet wild throbbing of un
speakable bliss, that were there when
softly soothing him to slumber and re
pose. Now, the foliage of the willow
will be his shelter, and the narrow
house his abiding place; the nursery
will no more resound with his gladsome
mirth—the cradle in which he so oft re
posed in quiet, now desolate. Thou
weepest,fond mother.
The last look. The tithe is come
when she may gaze once more on , her
sleeping boy; ere the pall is settled up
on the lifeless brow. Oh, the bitter
agony of that moment ; one long burti
ing kiss upon his marble forehead, and
he is shut from her view.
No more. dearest boy, shalt thou lie,
With drowsy smile, and half-shut eyes—
Pillow7d upon thy mothers breast,
Serenely sinking into rest—
For God bath laid thee down to sleep,
Like a pure pearl beneath the deep
Look abroad, fond mother, on the
ways of wicked men, and repine no
more that God hath made thy child an
angel in the regions of bliss. Now
this song mingles with the thanksgiving
of the blest ! sanctified, safe, and secure
from the storiy blasts of iniquity, with .
him who is from everlasting.
$ * *
The long train of weeping friends
gathered around a fresh 'dug grave.—
The coffin was lowered into its final
resting place, in that vale of solitude,
and silence—the spirit of him who was
so lovely here, bad long eat this cross
ed the dark waters and is safely landed
upon the flowery coast of a world of
fadeless bloom.'
Afterwards I stood. by that little
grave, the moon was beaming on like
his own pure spirit ; the willow ; sigh
ed above it as if it knew the pure. the
beautiful was, gone ; and the 'green
grass waved above him like the gentle
billow o'er the pearl it buries; I
wished that I too, could sleep, so; calm
ly, silently, by that sweet boy ; I, pray
ed that 1 too,.rnight be as he is, passed
from this vale of bitterness, sorrow and
of tears: The blood that blushed so
beautifully in' thy little veins, was
strange to mine but I loved thee better
than a brother. Farewell, dear boy.

disease entirely removed; since . which I -have
been free from cough and pain In
