she read, her face became suffused with blushes,
. And her blue eyes dropped their pretty lids, adding
the beautiful rote of modesty Giber perfect features.
From beneath her simple robe appeared so dainty
a little foot, that one might well have thought it was
Cinderella's self. A wreath of wild flowers rested
on-her brow, while her rustic hat, with Halting blue

' sauce the world seemed love, and nature was beau
.tiful only because she lived. Each year brought
'with- it new joy, until Adolphe and May grew as one
imul,kuowing the same devotion. They shared no
,pleasitre apart—they wept no tear alone ; hut when
Adolphe looked upon her pure beauty, he felt jeal
ous lest the world should steal a thought from him.
.There was one who had lingered beside her, who
had-offered her an homage unoivided and true; and
though Adolphe in his moments of reflection doubt
ed not her constancy, still be grew jealous when a
*mile - blessed another. And now when he waited
"bialruant love, and she came tint, can we marvel
:*itthis heart was torn with ten thousand _contend
; int !emotions.
"'Never has she tarried so 1 •ng before. I thought

hear some of her wild strains as they seem to echo
~.frona her pore heart— but lbe pale moon is waning,

with rapture on the moment when I could press thy
little hand and call it Mine forever—and are those

NoI :flargive me, dearest, that I have for a moment
doubted thy truth, but oh ! 'us a long eternity, each

• No longer could May retain her position—a big

4er-ringlets. With a roguish smile she laid her hand

laughter at his confusion. ...Adolphe! I never knew

Is. vain May endeavored to assume an air of of

"This time, Adolphe, thou bast tasted a joy

DEMOCRATIC STATE CONVENTION
HAIIIIIBIII/10, March 4, 1848.
L. HARPER, Esq.—Dear Sir : The Democratic
State Convention met this morning, in the Hall of
the House of Representatives. The Convention
was numerously attended.
Citiumis FIAIXT, Esq was chosen President of
the Convention, and, upon taking the chair, deliver
ed an eloquent and appropriate address.
The usual Vice Presidents and Secretaries were
chosen.
The Convention then proceeded to ballot fur
President, when it appeared [hit the Hon. hilts
BUCHANAN had 84 votes, and he is therefore the
choice of the Democracy of Pennsylvania.
For Canal Commissioner, Imam. Penmen, Esq.,
received 67 votes, being a majority i when he was
declared duly nominated.
Wit.volv McCA:mixes, Esq., of Pittsburgh, and
JOH?f W. Format', Eaq., of Philadelphia, (the able
and fearless Editor' of th• Pennsylvanian,) were
chosen Senatorial Delegates to the National Con
vention at Baltimore. Yours, truly.
BAs our our paper of date contained no re
port of the Markets of New York, Philadelphia
and Baltimore, of the day' previous, while our
neighbors of the Gazette spread before their read
ers the markets of those cities,—we think it due to
our patrons that they ahould be informed of the
facts in relation to the matter.
In connection with our neighbors of the Ga•
zette we receive thh markets of the Eastern ci
ties, as well as the general news transmitted by
telegraph. Late on Friday evening, our reporter,
as usual called at the Gazette office, but was in
formed that there would be no market reports
on that evening, as there was no change in prices
in the Eastern cities. This fact was stated under
our te!egraphic head in Saturday's paper. But
finding, in the Gazette of Saturday, full reports of
the markets of Philadelphia, Baltimore, New Yurk,
&c., we were no little surprised, and immediately`
called at that office to inquire into the mattee.—
We were there informed by Mr. HAIGHT and
Mr. CLASS that their reports, as published, were
substantially those published the day previous,
only altered in dates, Etc., to make them appear
as new. We make the abo‘e statement, not for
the purpose of ezposisg the ruse of our neigh
bora, but to justice to oursel see.
Un Saturday morning, a man named Stewart came
into our office, and stated that, on the night of the
22d ultimo, he came into this city from Green coun
ty, having with him his three children; . that on land
ing from the Ferry boat they complained of being
cold ; when he went to a house near the place t. here
be landed, and after Icing there a short time, he
went out in company with another man, who mid he
would direct him to a house where he could get ac
commodation, for himself and his children : that he
took two of the children with him—leaving a little
girl named ELIZA, about five years old, at the house
where lie first stopped: that, when he whaled to
return and get the little girl, he missed 'ma way, and
could not find the place ; and says that he has not
been able to got any information respecting her
since. The man says he lived in Bayardstewn, du
ring last summer; but iss renident of Mercer coun
ty. If any one knows of a child, whose recent cir
cumstances correspond with this statement, infor
mation of the fact may be left at this office.
Our townsman, Mr. Jr.nriaiair O , DLNITTAN, has
now ready for the press, a Hurroav or lart.Arip—
in verse. The wcrk, we understand, will be issued
in the cnuree of the spring, and will make about 200
pages. Mr. o , Dorrnovan has already given to the
reading world a small volume of poems, on various
subjects, which was well received by his numerous
friends. We have no doubt that the History of
Ireland, which he is about publishing, will meet Nish
a ready sale. As soon as the book is published, we
shall speak more of it at length, and give extracts
from its pages.
Virginia Democratic Convention
The Democracy of the " Ancient Dominion " con
vened at Richmond, on the 2811 k ultimo, for the
purpose of effecting a State organization, and nom
inating an Electorial Ticket for the State. J. M.
PeTrosr, Esq., was chosen President of the Conven•
tion. Respecting itsmcmbers, the Richmond En
quirer says—" It is one of the most numerous, and,
in point of talents and other considerations, most
respectable conventions we have ever seen in Vir
ginia. The people, from the mountains to the sea
bord, have sent up their reprerntatises, to proclaim
their principles, and secure their success. The
finest spirit animates every member; the spirit
of harmony, of union, of devotion to principles and
to victory.
The President, on taking the chair, made a most
stirring and eloquent address to the members ; and
the Convention was afterwards addi eased ab Gover
nor Sxrrn, and other distinguished Democrats.

Peniasylirania.Lesislature...Death of
Hon. J•hu
`On Friday, the:2sl.l,ultimoi hir-;',BArritlUsiN, from
the joint committee appointed op:the 4natkof Juba
Quincy Adams, tnarde;thefonnwiii,roirt,:ll-i.,_',,
The Joint Committee of the Sgiiiiteisid
Representatives, appointed for the purpose of report
ing what measures should be adopted-to testify the
sense of the Legislature on the mournful occarion.of
the death of Joan Qtrrscn ADAMS...
REPORT.
That they recommend the adoption of the follow
ing Preamble and Resolution, as expressive of the
sense of the Legislature on the melancholy event:
In the fulness ofripened and honored old age, the
Angel of Death has removed from among us one of
the 'fathers of our common country. In contemplat
ing this sad bereavement, the retrospect of a well
spent and useful life carries to the hearts of the A
merican people the consolations that the illustrious
deceased had performed in all fidelity 'the duties
which he owed to his country, to mankind, and to
his God. The annals of thence John Quincy Adams
furnish to the people ofhis native land the brightest
example of the practical workings ofour Republican
institutions. In all the various functions ovhich he
exercised—as the Private Secretary, the halmble mu
nicipal officer, the Representative of his Governthent
among other nations, the Head of a Department, the
Chief of a nation; he exhibited the fidelity to his trust,
the untiring industry, the greattlearning and unyield
ing devotion to the best interests of his fellow-men,
that have in all ages peculiarly marked the charac
ter of the Patriot. It is, therefore, in contemplation
of these events that the Legislature and people of
Pennsylvania, deeply mourn the departure from his
earthly pilgrimage of the venerable and illustrious
- _
Adair.
Be it therefore.
Resolved, That the Senate and House of Repre
sentatives of the Commonwealth of Pennnsylvania,
deem it their duty alike to the living and to the dead.
to him whose whole life was spent in the service of
his country, and to the people over whom he was
once chosen under the Constittrion to preside as
their Chief Magistrate, to express their deep sense
of the irreparable loss which the Nation has sus
tained in the death of that great and good man John
Quincy Adams.
Resolved, That the Legislature of Pennsylvania
feel deeplyimpressed with the fact, that in whatever
relation John Quincy Adams stood to his country
men, whether as the Executive of the Union, the
}lead of a department, the Minister of his govern
ment to a Foreign power, the Rspresentativei of the
people in the councils of the nation—he ever wits,
and continued to the end of his life to be, eminent
ly great and good. Greatness and guilt have too pf
ten been allied, but hie fame is as pure and unsullied
its it will be enduring. In all the spheres in which
he moved throug , out a long and eventful public ca
reer, there can be traced all those high and enno
bling qualities which adorn the Christian Statesman,
a private character pure and spotless—a sense of
honor peculiarly strong—a republican simplicity
which commanded the admiration of his countrymen
—a thorough artd- ardent devotion to his country
not excelled by any of his compeers--acquirements
and learning such as few men of his generation pos
sessed—and a vigor of intellect and energy of char
acter which rose superior to every obstacle and en
abled him successfully to compete with the intellec
tual giants of the age
Resolved, That as a further testimony of the re
spect for the memory of the deceased, an extract
from the Journal of each House, to he signed by the
Straker', be communicated to the Governor, with
a request that he will forward the same, with a let
•er of condolence, to the venerable widow and fami
ly of the &Ceased.
Resolved, That the Governor be further requested
to forward a copy of the aforesaid resolutions, to
the Governor of Massachusetts ' the native state of
the deceased, with a request that he communicate
the same to the Legislature of said Commonwealth.
The resolutions were unanimously agreed to.
In the House, Mr. Farms, from the same Commit:
tee, presented the same report, which was unani
mously agreed to by that body.
On the 29th ult. the fullowing bills were eeterally
pia.ed, viz.
An act authorizing the Court of Quarter sessions of
Allegheny county, to vacate a portion of Franklin
street in the city of Pittsburgh.
An act to authorize Sarah A. Wilson of Alegheny
county, to dispose of certain nannies.
A supplement to an :act entitled an act to author
ize the Governor to incorporate the Little Saw
mill turnpike road Company, in Allegheny county,
pa-sed the 25th day of March, A. D. 1814.
An act to authorize the Auditor General to ex
amine and settle the claims of James Fenlon, for
work done on the Juniata division of the Pennsyl
vania canal
An act for the relief of George M'Cornbs.
A supplement to the act authorizing suit to be
brought on the official bond or Wm. B. Mitchell,
late superintendent.
An act to incorporate the Tillage Ll' West Eliza
beth, in Allegheny county, into a borough.
War Meeting.
In the last number of the Washington Examiner,
we find the proceedings of a meeting of the citizens
of Allegheny and Washington counties, (without dis
tinctinn of party,) that wns held at Monongahela
city, on Saturday, the 19th of February, to give an
expression of their opinions in relation to the exist
ing war with Mexico. GEORGIC V. LAWRENCE, Esq.
was appointed President; WW. M'CLURE, JAMES
MANOWN, J. PEARCE, of Allegheny County, J. BA
KER, JANES PORTER, WSJ. WICEERSIJAM, JAMES C.
KERR, EDWARD KEARNEY and JAMS POWERS, of
Washington County, Vice Presidents; and A. J.
Stewart and T. h. Hazzard, Esq., Secretaries.
The following were among the resolutions adopt
ad by the meeting :
Reunited, As the opinion of this meeting, that it is
the duty of Congress to aid the National Adminis
tration, in a vigorous and energetic prosecution of
the war—by voting such supplies of men and money,
as the honor of the country, and the safety and se
curity of our gallant arrnics in Mexico require.
Re aired, That we view with feeling, of regret, a
disposition in many parts of the country, to retard
the operations of the government in the prosecution
of the war—and to prolong the prospects of peace,
by giving expression to sympathies, well calculated
to encourage the exasperated Mexicans to protract
the war with hopeless resistance.
Resolved, That now is not the proper time to stop
to enquire into, and to discuss the canoes ofthe ex
isting unhappy war--that it is the war ofour country,
and as true Atnericans we are prepared to stied by
the government in all her acts, to vindicate the Na
tional honor and secure the blessings of peace. r.
Resolved, That in concluding a peace with Mexi
co, our government should demand and make every
honorable effort to secure a proper indemnity in be
half of A morican citizens, having just claims against
Mexico--aird to settle and adjust the expense, of
the war in accordance with the usages of civilized
warfare, and principles of magnanimity and justice.
Gen. Taylor in Virginia.
The Federal Convention of Virginia, that met on
the 24th ultimo, after a very exciting discussion,
adopted the following rcaolutions:—
I.
Resolved, That, in the opinion of this Conven
tion, founded on the beet evidences before it, Gen
eral Zachary Taylor is the choice of the 7Vhigs of
Virginia for the Presidency of the United States;
and we therefore recommend him as inch to the
National Convention, to be held on the 7th of June
next, in the city of Philadelphia.
2. Resolved, Nevertheless, that the Whigs of Vir
ginia pledge their cordial support to any Whig nomi
nee of that Convention.
In the course of the discussion, previous to th 3
adoption of the resolutions, distinct allusion was
made to the reported rote in the Kentucky Conven
tion, recommending Gee. Taylor. How far that
fraud may have operated to produce the result, it is
difficult to determine ; but the effect upon the mem
bers was doubtless powerful; as "Head hint or
die " Botts, in asserting the claims of Mr. CLAY,
said, "It is true, we have been struck by lightning!"
Whiggery is surely getting low, when such plans
can be resorted to, in orfier to defeat its veteran
Apostle.

S. S. l i atamss, formerly a reprehentative from

New Orleans, (where he was engaged in the prac

Mr. Invino, of Louisiana, a eon-in-law of Henry
Clay. It is said that Mr. iPaatrriss took occasion
in one of courts of New Orleans, to utter harsh and

Alffnut.; Auswis.—"The etitibitinti:o Were people,
on Sidaiititd-)laturdny cwazOngisi wa! attended by
crovidsivand the y . gave general dissatisfac
tion, as.we learn from some of the lPhdis who were
present. The exhibition was not as obscene tut they
anticipated. The performers are said to be any
4thinillse than graceful—we have heard them pro
nounced the awkward sq u ad—some of them are crip
ples, and only one can boast of being a good model.
We d , s, notsloubt that the groupings will be rather
chaste fdr a few evenings. It would not do to "drop
down too suddenly." In the east the best people
visited the exhibition, when they were first announc
ed, and all applauded them ; but, like every thing
of evil tendency, they soon degenerated into the
most loathsome and degrading shows. What may
be the course pursued by the "models" now in our
city, we con not predict, but dare to presume that
they arc not a whit too good to stoop to the practices
of their professional brethren in order to make
money.
Read what the Philadelphia Saturday Courier,
one of the beat condiActed family papers in the union
says of' the exhibition of the Model Artists in that
city:
Morin. Assns.—We regret to see that a species of ex
hibition. which, in the right hands, might have been made
pure and elevating, has rapidly degenerated into intlecen
cies of the worst kind. In New York, we notice that
there are various companies of men and women, who
nightly exhibit themselves, almost entirely invested of elo
thing, awl, in some few cases perfectly nude, to any and
all whose depraved tastes and corrupt appetites may at
tract them to the revolting spectacle. When .11oet. Coll ;
) cr first brought out his company in this city, there were
litany of his trablraux and exhibitions of stutury that were
chaste and beautiful in the extreme—in fact, purity itself
compared to stage dancing, as all who saw them can tes
tify. Subh, for instance, were ••St. John Preaching in the
'Wilderness," - The Lute Player." "Jeptha's Daughter,'
" Lye at the Fountain," and some others. But with these
were soon mingled, some things exceptionable, and be
tore the exhibition closed, the lapse to extreme nudity, in
ausarianer, was so great as to become disgusting and ex
ceedingly reprehensible. At first, many ladies were pres
ent, but towards the last, the exhibition was so gross us
to entirely olefin!. them. No better commentary upon
the decency and morality of the affair is needed—la a man
cannot take his wife and daughter to a public exhibition,
be can derive little good by going himself, and had much
better be at home.
We take pleasure: in stating that there was net
one 12d . , in the house on Friday or Saturday evenings.
'Lir We were at a meeting in Allegheny city, on
Saturday night. It was Called for a solemn and
patriotic purpose. We noticed many familiar ( • aces;
theiare now men's faces, for wt. en w•e knew them
they were all boys'. Time has made the change.
We were surprised to find that so many of them had
turned orators, as well as men. We heard many
speeches during the el. ening; and when we state
that the subject of discussion was nothing at all, we
will be credited in saying that the speakers displayed
great talent. There was a great variety of styles
exhibited : The" Gathering Storm," the '• Rivulet,"
the " Torreut," the " Brick-bat," the " Zharcoal,"
&c. Each of these " Elocutionary fashicias " was
well and truly represented ; and each had its pecu
liar effect upon the andience. The speakers base
aspaiations for something high. If seme one would
"cut their strap■ and let them go to glory," they
would all come back a contented pnpulat.on. The
business of public meeting's would be transacted
without excitement. The serenity of the street
coroners would not be disturbed.
ltilcarts:o IA Azzecaresrr.—On Saturday r•veniug
the citizens of Allegheny met in the Town House,
for the purpose of making arrangements for doing
honor to the memory of Jortiv Quiricy Anzsts. T.
L.:WM[ll2n was called to the Chair, and D. N.
White appointed Sectetary. A Resolution was
adopted instructing the officers of the meeting to
make out, at their Icisnre, a Committee, conaiating
of thirteen citizens, whose duty it will be to make
all suitable arrangements for The CCrOMOI3IOO. Tho
original resolution required a funeral procesaion
but it was so amended as tli \ confine the duties of the
committse to electing a person to deliver an Eu
logy, &c.
far The Washington Examiner publishes an ac
count of the funeral ceremonies of Lieut. Irons.
The procession was formed by Col. Itoph. The
milit a ry of the county turned out ; so did the Sons
of Temperance, the Literary Societies, the Faculty
and Trustees of the College, the members of the
Bar, and citizens and strangers. Prayer was offer
ed by Rev. Africk, and an Eutogium by Dr. King.
The Examiner says:
" So soon as the necessary arrangements can be
completed, a monument will be erected to Lieut.
-Irons, as a further tribute to his great worth. We
hope that the Committee who have in charge the
collection of money, for this laudable purpose, will
be active in facilitating the object. Let the matter
be attended tooromptly, and let there be such a
spirit manifested as will prove that the people of
Washington county are capable of appreciating the
service■ of one whose career, brief as it was, won
for him a place on the brightest pages of our coun
try's history."
slip A number of Uncle Sam boys were very
happy on receipt of their prize Hose Reel; while
some members elf other companies were perfectly
miserable. The Allegbenians are a go-ahead end
contented people; but the rising generation should
not assemble attlie street corners tbr the purpose
of annoying strangers. Allegheny is the widest

.To say that the representations of the troupe are
indecent, is using very moderate languake,when we
are all aware that their immodesty is the chief rea
son that they are visited at ill. It is true there are
occasional scenes on the stage and in the circus
nearly as gross as some of these, which simply
shows that the said exhibitions ought not to be toler
ated. The Models are only another link in the
chain of licentiousness, commencing with the dan
cing of the divine Fanny. It should be remembered
that her first attempts were denounced. The moral
portion of community spoke out loudly against
them ; but now, such-performances are permitted
and applauded ; and, having witnessed them again
and again, we consider our former modesty as a kind
'of verdant simplicity, and wonder, why we were
ever so vulgar as to think them unbecoming. It is
• trange how impurity creeps slowly but steadily on
ward, to steal away the moral sense of community.
Another step has been presented. Society appears
to hesitate to take it, as if fearful of the result. But
it is probable that it will be taken.; for though
Vice is a monster of such hideous mien,
As to be hated, needs but to be seen;
Yet., seen too oft, familiar with her face,
We first endure, then pity, then embrace. .
Now, is there not something startling in this view
of the subject 1 Does it not remind us that corrup
tion is fast coming upon us, and gradually gaining
the stamp of custom, to make it respectable t You,
who talk of foreign influence and who would rob the
poor and industrious wanderer from the land of op
pression, of the rights which our constitution gives
him, are right in telling us that the crimes and vices
of otherlande will soon become our own. But doer
the laburpr bring them 1 Is the man, who toils at
his honest task, to blame for iniquities perpetrated
in places where his rough cnat would make him an
intruder t If the time should ever come—Godgrant
it may not—when we may have to lament the loss
or our national virtue, you may say the contagion
came from other land ; but the blame will not be on
the humble foreigner whom you despised, but on
the wandering prostitute who was courted by the
great,,bribed by the .rich, honored by the wise, and
on those who worshipped her. Fashion tasted the
fruit, and pronounced it good. Reason and Com
mon Sense soon ate it at her hand.
• ..
It. is unnecessary to take any extended notice of
the groupings of Mr. Young's troupe. The scenes,
bad as they were, bad some moral. One represent
ed the Deluge—an appropriate scene, reminding us
that the Flood came because the wickedness of men
was great. Another was called, " St. John preach
ing in the wilderness.” He stood within a group,
holding a cross. The des.gn was inaccurate, and
the title of the piece still worse. But these are
small faults. To the—and I do not profess any
great sanctity—the representation was something
like profanity. To think of the purity of the doc
trines of the Ors great preacher of Christianity, and
that for 1800 years the truths of that religion have
been treasured in the domestic circle as the guar
dians of peace and honor, was enough to make one
turn in disgust from a scene whose very toleration
shows that innocence is still unsafe, and that cus
tom still smiles at crime.
_ .
I do not wish to intrude on the province or the
pulpit, nor to denounce those whose views are dif
ferent. The subject now under notice is one on
which all may speak, and of which ail ought to
think ; not because one exhibition or another is in
itself a mighty evil, but because they are strong i•-
dications that the foundations., of public virtue are
rar from being secure.
