TUE LAST OP Titia...,RASULS"._

It was a.fine cloudless morning. the sakm"
that 'I had strolled to the extremityl.of„a
closed copse, when I observed a girl; with ii;srontl .
basket lined with vinelesvesfcellecting
strawberries that grew in glystplintY dndluxiiti=
ance upon the bank which foFmed the outer baSe
of the enclosure. She was the dau ghter of a yeo
man in the neighborhood, who, dying in impover

I had fremiently seen Mary Wilding

which true -,eoriducted - . lieteelf its sacred

Nature, who .makes not all her beauties for Al
mules or the Opera, had dispensed her favors to
no•sparing hand. I know not to what
oiler of.ibrens she belonged, for it would seem that
there are orders% clay as well as in stone, but
she' was 'surpassingly beautiful; and,- at the period
of Willett EM now writing, she had scarcely at
lainiur her eighteenth year,when tbe freshness and
airinessOf youth were dlightfully blended with
ttranriper graces and more perfect symmetry of the
wimp: :It is true, the roses were not lavishly
strown•upon her cheek; but their blush, slight lasi

riesfrom their green bank, were of the fairness omit
delicacy of the lily. There was' no bracelet on

are;now worn an one wrist only, like , a handcuff.
Itlhad. indeed-been is pity to have intercepted that
tgautiful outline which marked the finely moulded '
arm of the rustic' maiden.
- There Was nothing uncommon iu the circum
stance,.of;a .village girl gathering the wild straw
beln-; end, but for-its frequent occurrence, it
would. not have excited my particular attention.
Observing her, however, at the same spot, and ut
the same employment, for many successive days, I
ventured. upon one occasion, to inquire her motive
ciacupatioli whence she could derive little
- profit: and -whith mit necessarily interfere with
berLditmestic duties. She replied, with some hesi
ritielltthat gathered Ahem tor a sick person,
who could scarcely relish anything else; adding,
that she feared she should collect but few more, as
she bad :nearly exhausted the crop which grew
oporethe bank. I told, her that she would find
abundance within the enclosure; and, presenting
bet With - tbeley of a little wicket, which opened
inn; the copse, I bade her avail herself of the sup
pl 2. it affoided, whenever she had occasion. :She l
received - the permission ; (whicli, although not the'
proprietor, I was authorized to grant) with ex- i
'presitions of gratitude altogether disproportionate ; '
to the favor conferred. for it would have been readi.il
irconteded.to any well ordered person, who hadil
chosen to solicit it. I frequently observed hers
ii*F4iling - herself of the opportunity thus afforded to,
herVen some occasions. I could perceive her coun•!
tenancy lit up by the indications of hope and con-!,
fidenee ; .while at other times it was pale, anxious)

anti ; but, whatever were her feelings she/
did not relax in the diligence with which her chart-
table occupation was diurnally resumed.
Mice happened, that I had extended my walk ;
beyond its usual limits. It was high noon; but a
;refreshing breeze had sprung up, and sensibly aha:
ted,the sultriness'of the day. The place in which.
• 1-was walking, was what is termed a green lane i
in' other words, a bye road, through which there
were 'co - few passengers, that it - was overgrowit '
with'grass, and almost as - even as a meadow. The
hedges on either side, was high, being composed
thi,Mapie tree, interspersed, in great abundance,
with the honey suckle and the wild rote, which
leaded with a delightful fragrance, the gale thai
swept arong the greeen avenue. The sound of
voices induced me to look up. and I beheld, some.

At the instant that I observed them, they stopped,l

was:a very young man, evidently in-extremely ill

ekt`Mid - distressed, was altogether unequal to the
burthen she attempted to sustain. I immediately
walked up to them, and assisted in supporting hide
taber mother's cartage, which was fortunately at
no great distance from the spot. The poor widow.
upon our entrance, exhibited no surprise at be
fiolding her daughter in such company, but eX
• pressed a lively concern at the situation of the in

partments in the widow's cottage, in the hope M
,benefiting by the change of air. but had, for sonic
days . Past; been almost a prisoner to his room
On that morning; however, he fancied himself
stronger, and, towards noon, expressed an anxiobs
--desire to walk out; and, as his servant had be•en
despatched to a neighboring town, for some medi
cines, he brulavailed himself of the support and
guidance of his hostess' daughter.
Mary, as soon as she had relinquished his arm,
retiresdfrom the apartment, but, upon a summons
from the invalid, soon re-entered; and the anxiety
with , 'Which she appeared to administer to his
wants was strangely blended with the respectful
bearing.which their relative situation 'could corn

The Tide of a Cooettel
We-can compare the conduct of the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad Company.to nothing .but a co
quette, full of "smirks and mites," who-has spent
the best days of her life in winning admiring devo
tees, only to jilt and deceive them, and at last.is
herself jilted,' shunned and despised! -
Pittsburgh was fairly "taken la" by the Balti
more COmpany. Our citizens believed thlit ell
the declarations and publications of Mr. McLane
and his associates were made in good faith. We
supposed they were anxious to connect themselves
with this city. Under this belief the "Right of
Way Bill" was passed by our Legislature last win
ter, which gave to our citizens the right to make
a Railroad from here to the Maryland line. The
Baltirilore- Company rejoiced upon hearing this
news, and said they would meet us. Our ever
confiding citizens fondly believes! that the " iron
City" would soon be connected with the "Monu
mental City," by indissoluble bands. But this
I turned out to be delusive belief! The Baltimore
Company practised a base fraud upon Pittsburgh
—our citizens were deceived and betrayed in the
most villainous mariner.
We soon learned, that the coquette had " another
string to her bow," as the slang goes. A rough,
mis-shapen, deformed, unfinished lover, from the
wilds of Virginia, presented himself at the feet of I
the 'cruel, heartless, painted, toothless old maidd
and invited her to Parkersburgh, there to partake;
of his "hog, Inuniny and pone." The vain, col
quetish old maid buiiled and tossed her head, and
looked killingly modest and innocent! Says she:
"let your Legislature grant me the right of way,
laud I will go to Parkersburgh and there abide,"
l The Legislature took the matter gravely into con
; sideration, and after fully investigating the claims
of the Baltimore coquette, decided that she
could'ut come it." F.uch is the "Fate of a Co-
rtorrly of !ilarried Woman.
The following in a copy of the Bill ulitcli Was
intrugiurCil into the !louse of Representativee
our Leghlatme, on the 30th ult., by Mr. Ksox,
l'rom the Judiciary Committee, to exempt the real
estate of martied women limn the debts of ILCir
husbands, We hope it may Lei:utne a lair of the
Cominomi calth.
eimerd, That the lands, terse

Any woman previous to her marriage, or whirl,
shall accrue to her by will or ales:cent during coy.:
erture, shall be tree from all liabilties or debts of
the husband of said women, and the same shall not
he seized, sold or sequestered, by virtue of an ex
ecution or writ of any kind which shall issue
against said husband.
I:C.TION 2. 11lienever any judgment shall be
obtained against the husband and wife jointly. fur
the debts of the wife contracted or incurred before
marriage, or for her tortious conduct before or of
ter covetnre, the said: judgment shall be a lien
against her real estate, and may be collected in
the same manner as though said real estate was
the property of the husband. ••••
SECTION 3. This act shall not affect the lien
or collection of any debts contracted by the hus
band of arty woman prior to the first day of July
next, and nothing herein shall be so construed as
to ptevent husband and wife from mortgaging or
conveying the reality of the wife in the manner
now recognized by law.
Sze-emir 4. All laws inconsistent herewith are
hereby' repealed.
All Democrats:
The Detroit Free Press says: "The election of
Gov. Fetch to the United States Senate makes the
entire delegation from Michigan in the next Con
gram, Democratic. Of this the Democracy of the
Peninsular State may well be proud, and prouder
still of the talents and integrity of those sent to
reflect their wishes 'and feelings on the floor of
Congress.
In the Senate, after. the 9th of. March next, we
have Gen. Cass and Gov. Fetch, and in the House.
Messrs. McCleiland,Brailley and Bingham, airmen
of enlarged views, Mitch experienceouid able de
baters. Michigan may well challenge the other
states of the union to show as able a delegation.

Mr. CALHOUN AMU TUN. Win.—A portion of
the press recently gave credit to a rumor put in
circulation that Mr. Cstuous was- about to orer
a resolution in the Senate, adVising the withdraw
al of our troops from Mexico,• in order to resume
negotiations. The Charleston Mercury denies the
rumor, the character of which events have since
expoied. and Closes as follows:
. 4 That Mr. Calhoun has earnestly desired to put
an end to the war, is indubitable, but not by nation
al dishonor—not by public conkesion that the
country is incapable of avenging its wrongs and
securing its safety.
- 44 We have heard that he favored the armed ec.
cupation of so much of the Mexican territory as
might be thought a fair indemnity for' all' our.
claims,- and that we' should 'refit with that at pre
sent. Propositions like this have emanated from
many quarters, and been.received with much fa
vor. The last one is credited:lo Com. Perry, and,
. has'at least enough of plausibility to gain it a
hearing. It is not-treasonable, and proposes. no
cowardly retreat before our enemiesno :conies:
