Nine months passed ; and the remembiarke or
our departed daughter was still frfth on out Minds.
Though the sods which wrapped her cold grave
had long since closed around it, and the' gra sp
grew, andthe flowers blossomed there; the Wounds
which the occurrence had inflicted on our.', hearts,
were still open and bleeding. There was the little
Rose) poor* in the frame, with her mother and
mine; there was the line tote heard occasionally.

destir,allsinging and mirth were studiousliavoid-,
edi even the Rose of Allendale was no longer
heard, and the wandering minstrels were told to,
pass the houie =rt ivas a house of mourning,
The secret, devouring melancholy, which had
beentut too fatally nourished in the bosom of
my beloved wife, had sown the dark seeds of death
in her system, and she, too, was to be takes from
me. ToCi! eh! too soon the dreaful intelligence
was communicated to me by an experienced and
Celebrated physician, that there was no hope. It
seemed a thunderbolt driven by the unrelenting
hand of inexorable vengeance, and nothing could
stay the arm of the destroyer. Her heart - was
broken with grief and decay, and Hysteria united 1 meat of its

imabaud.
A month had not passed, and I was a house'esa
wanderer. 1 have rigidly abstained from laying
the blame - anywhere—merely for the SP ke of her
that is gone,. andthough the visitation was a severe
one, I forbear making further allusion to R. De
prived of all that I possessed, "seared in heart, and
lone and blighted," I determined to emigrate to
IWO - 1r west. The Sunday after my spoliation, I
Wept to.Cburch as usual, and the 69th Psalm, be
kir one read in order on that day, I saw that the
minhiters and congregation felt how forcibly it ap.
plied to me. While in Liverpool, I went to St.
Jades, andfrom the lips of the Revd. Hu
himself; heard the 69th Psalm beautifully read .
Wairit not a striking coincidence!
Of
.my voyage across the western ocean, you
itrii already acquainted; I need not, therefore, oc
copy your time further. Twelve months have
passed since I was lett.alone. In reviewing my
history, I have but one thing to add to what I have
alreadystated. The enormities committed against
me were the faults of madness, avarice, and crii
elty;land the-harvest proved equally disastrous to
tbe oppressor, and the oppressed. Even now, after
all the teals I have endured, and separated so far
froita the latid of my birth, the vision of the past
floata.truly over .my fond memory. She who
•loved me to the last moment of her existence, is,
not forgotten, for the " heart that once truly loved
never forget . ," and oh! if not for my sake, at least
for their own, I trust that the recollection of these 1
farts, which I thus faithfully transcribe, will 'soften
the hard hearts of those, la hit so soon, and so
sharrfefully, violated the most sacred pledges of
frietidship arid affection! I have long since for
given all' who wronged me, but it becomes them
to look.for itteonciliation in heaven!'
Here entleth the manuscppt. It is truly an af
fecting' tale orconstancy, arid unmerited suffering;
and it'needs not any commit from me. With the
packet containing the above, I received a copy of
'the Albany Atlas, which contained the following
poem, written, no doubt by the mourner, on the
anniversary of his wife's death:
THE REME.NIBER ED!
And thou haat gone, and left me too,
Beloved of my soul;
'Bone to: that bright and happy land,
'Where joy knows no control.
That truth, like mildew o'er me cast,
Has seared my aching bro4':
And hope and joy.ha're fled away,
And left me wrptched now.
But we were blessed with Jove and joy ;
And pleasant passed the hours ;
Our youthful hearts knew no alloy ;
OAF path was strewn with flowers:—
&nth bereft me-: left me lonc—
.And anguish seizedfiny mind;
For hope greW lain, and friends proved false
'• 'And fickle-as the wind.
Oh ! I lament that thou art dead ;
I sorrow for the past:
I shall regret that thou 'art gone,
As long as life shall last.
The ethereal sky irclouded o'er,
,Witk oasts of mattering wrath—
. latiTapeno longer cheers
My solitary - .
Yet thatt art chanting sweetly now,
With seriph choirs on high ;
And our.own angel daughter, too, •
I. with thee in the sky.
Awl I will pray, that when I die—
Earth's' fetters burst and riven.
. -may ascend to•praise my God,
..With thee and Rose in heaven

Abe energy and promptitude with which the pre
bsent Board of Directors of the Pittsburgh and
onnellaville Railroad Company have entered on
,their duties; having on the 20th ultimo, placed a
section of four miles of the Youghiogheny division
finder contract.
Resolved, further, That the placing of another
section of four miles, of the Eastern division or
Connellsville Extension, towards the Maryland
tine, under - contract this day, evinces a praise
worthy determination onthe part of the present
hoard, CO prosecute this work to an early com
pletion.
Resolved, That the straightforward, honest in
tegrity and ability of the present Board of Direc
tors of the Pittsburgh and Connellsville Railroad
Company, with Col. Wm. Lorimer, Jr., of the city
of Pittsburgh, will, in the opinion of • the Stock-
Spiders of this Company, recommend said road to
the attention and convert) of not only the people
in all Western Pennsylvania, but also of the-busi
dess men and capitalists on the Atlantic seaboard;
and more particularly those of the cities of Balti
more and Philadelphia, and the State of Maryland.
Resolved, That the valleys of the Iltfonongahela
and Youghiogheny Rivers to the State line, or up
one of the tributaries of the latter., (Castleman's
River,) to the summit of the Allegheny Mountain,
presents a splendid highway, of easy grade for a
Railroad superior to any other in Pennsylvania or
Virginia, leading from the waters'of the Ohio to
those of the Chesapeake: Superior; because shorter
in distance - and cheaper in ' construction, as has
beith several times demonstrated by scientific En
gineers in the service of the Chesapeake and Ohio
Canal Company, and 'Baltimore and - Ohio Railroad
Company.

State of Ohio, never. can become, (as lately at
tempted to be shown,) the great centripetal and

for the immense north and west, or .any conside

the immense and increasing productions of tnat

Resolved, That we. Stockholders in the Pitts

the attention of capitalists and the business corn-
I munity in the Atlantic cities to the importance of
this Railroad connection of the West, to the end
that by succouring and assisting in its construe-' '
Lion, it may be prosecuted to an early completion.

hereby tendered to Col. Win. Lwimer,Jr_, Pre si-'
dent of the BOard, and Wafter Bryant, Esq., both
from the city of Pittsbargh, for their co-operation

For the Morning Post.
Mn. Rimini': Having been one of the large
audience that listened to Mr. Allen's lecture, on
the American Idea of the Commonwealth, and
dissenting from his views, except uptin the wrongs
inflicted by Capital upon Labor, its producer--
permit me to express, through your useful paper,
to our eloquent !cantor, the reasons for my dis
sent.
The first white settlers, commonly called Pil
grim Fathers, came-to thiscountry to escape from
tyranny over their religious ideas. Their institu
tions indicated their lark of. knowledge of human
rights and duties; themselves became oppressors,
and like all othee tyrants, they pretended to make
society an" incarnation .or the attributes
.of ,the
Deity." No doubt they believed themselves to
be acting rightfully; Who does not
Coinmunion and civilization„says,l3; Allen, are
Ane contact. of extremes ; the one based' on com• '
on propel ty ; the other on corn moo -plunder; and I
both ate destructive of individual rights; both
render man landless and dependent
No. 2,. This defining of con 3 munitarianisni, to
me, appears incorrect. The social reformer, or
Rational Religionist, ho.kls, that all property, of
right, belongs to mankind ; to be used only for the
public good; and that that objet is best subset.
veil by,individual happiness, public property is
the Ration'alist's-idea. CoMmori property, many
of them consider only . common nonsense. Na
ture's raw material belongs to no man in partic
ular; therefore, none can of right claim a monopo-
ly thereof—the strong man not more than the
weak—the young man, not more than the aged.
The Love principle is taught the Rationalist, by
the philosophy of circumstances; whichteaches
how to ".agree to direr:" Pregtesd from under
the influences of political,Moral, or social error,
is to be effected by change 'of circumstances:L.-
Slaves make tyrants; lack-of:knovvledge, slaves;
extreme wealth, tyranny; extrerne:ptiverty,slaVe:
ery;—isixonazircs the evil; RNO TO7I. ETVt he remedy.
Therefore; having witnessed the n dreadful conse
quences to humanity, inflicted by Individual pro
perty : its necessary , accompaniment being ine
quality of possession and condition—social, moral
and political,—the Rationalist seeks to annihilate
the consequences—poverty, vice and misery; by
removing the prolific antecedent, individual wealth.
Foutierism appears chargeable with the evils of
extreme wealth and of usury. Instead of equali
zing the chanees of all competitors for happiness
in the race of life, it presents to some a very nn--
laic - Start; giving to tite capitalist class a bonus of
i
j:ini-third of all the surplus products of the wealth-I
riducing laborers; and one fourth to the skilful
Class; the balance, only, to the toiling many. To
me, this appears unjust. Equal right to equal
chance, is the Democratic idea. Fourierism
is inequality of chance. A system of injus
tice.and repulsiveness. Why should a child be
punished for a parent's errors, or rewarded be
cause of the parent's having practiced aright I--
Ir the parent was strong, and industrious, and
economical, these, in equity, should not enablv his
progeny to abstract from others, one-third of all
their labor's products. This plurraering system il l
the worst feature of the present-stage of civilized '
society. The law of this State debars capital
from taking more than 6 per cent. usury. Fourier.
ism organizes its labor, with one half its products
to be abstracted, in order to give "capital and
skill" the " divine right" to plunder labor ; and
that, -too, under the pretext of Industrial Unity---
Unity personified by a - tripartite division of labor's
fruits.
