Almost every Federal editor in the country has . 'found a fruitful source far misrepresentation and detraction of the Secretary of the Treasury, in the fact that, after the annual report had been submitted to, congress, it was discovered that a very material error had been made in the adgitions, and that the Government. was in peasessioft of means to the amount of about one million dollars more than had been stated in the Secretary's repot. The fer tile powers of mind of these gentry hare been ern • ployed most industriously, to show that the exist anew of this fact affords good reason fur believing that many other errors may also be found to exist; and they are at once ready to believe, that Mr. Walker is altogether unworthy of confidence as a public officer. The fact may have escaped their recollection, (and when reminded of it they may as sert that it is unimportant,) that no such error has ever been discovered under a Federal administra tion; and that, in the Treasury Department at least Ems of a different 'character was discovered, in the -beginning of Gen. Jackson's administration, which had not been discovered by his predecessor. It is , surely fair, therefore, if Mr. Walker can be held to . be ibcompeteut, or unfaithful to his trust, (when he points out a large balance in possession of the goy- . eminent, beyond the amount believekto be in the . .Treasnry,) to recognize some of those who preceded - him as no more competent, when they passed over deficiency, without calling the attention of Congress to the fact. The same course of reason ing which goes to condemn Mr. Walker, or to int -pate to him -any other than the most exalted worth iMein - offic.er,must condemn those whose position was, ht itself, much more questionable. Rut the censure, if any is due, cannot justly fall • - upon tbe head of the Treasury Department. lie can do no more than exercise a general super . vision over the affairs of his department, and must „depend, for the correctness of the data upon which his reports are based, (as do all other heads of de partments,) upon others. .The gentleman upon tehom Mr. Walker has been obliged to depend, in, this instance, is one.who has been fur many years the Treasury Department; has been the - man of . the bureau in which the error was made`; hair been -the actin4Sucretary of the Teen eery while Mr. Walker has been unable to attend to his duties ; and is universally regarded, we be lieve, as a strictly honest and capable man. The Only' objection that can be urged against him is, that he is a thorough and uncompromising Federal ” *mg." This ought to be accounted a sufficient reason—according to the usages of the Federal par ty—for Democrat/ to question his honesty, or to . keep him out of so responsible a station; but as .he is a le ;Phil ;" and occupies an importatit ma fine'. by the sufferance of his opponents, it is but - reasonable to presume that those who retain hint ' in the Department believe him to be honest, even thoegh an opponent ;—and notwithatandini the . effor_ is of his political friends are directed \to con slot a' higher officer of dishonesty and incapacity, • -on account of his errors, for which no one blames . .him. • =MI ~..;'., . .!•••-! . f,.:-. , ..- ; •!,.,.::;:,.. ) ;;',`. 7 .1,; - :.f.. , ;;;-: .. -.:: , '.: - .' . .. .. . _ . ~~`, =NH Resolved, That we respond with all our hearts to the nomination of our distinguished fellow citi zen, JAMES BUCHANAN, as the Democratic can didate for the nest Presideney, and. rejoice at the flattering promise that our Wishes in this respect, as entertained, without interruption, for a long series of years, are at length to be consummated.

"Such an occasion for the prevalence of moderation " in political affairs and for 'the exercise of a wise " and calm discretion in the control of the Govern " meet, has rarely happened in our history; and " rarely has it happened that a man could be found " so well adapted for such an occasion. " The movement in Queen Anne's County, exhibe' "%ling so respectable a combination of names of 1.0 h parties, is but the precursor of similar meet ' 't lugs to be held in Somerset and Worcester, with " in a few days, and before the Spring is over, in " every other county in the State. The mass meet ". ing here on the twentieth may be expected to be r , one of the largess ever held in Monument Square." When they shaft-have sultciently contemplated the beauty of its outlines; the trothfutness of the details; and the richnees ofthe coloring; we would commend to tht in another picture, painted to the ' life.'

The Funeral of aleudelesohn. %% a see many notices in the foreign journals of the death el this eminent composer, which has touched with a feeling of genuine sadness the heart of every real lover of music. This feeling shows it self in searching for and recording incidents in his daily life, and minute details of his death and funer al, as well a• the public honors which every one de lights to render to his name. Of these notices we select the following: Mendelssohn was brought up with a sister; she subsequently married a painter by the name of Haensel, and Mendelssohn married a daughter of a Senator of Frankliat. The two families were as one. Mendelssohn and his sister were indeed animated by one soul, for this distinguished woman was herself an eminent com poser, and guided the first steps of her brother. Niue months ago, Fanny Haenael composed a symphony, which was perfiwined in the saloons un der he• own direction. At the filth act, Madame Haensel fell dead in a fit of apoplexy. From this time Mendelssohn wandered about like a shadow among the living. In a letter to his wile, he said: "Our common soul has taken, night to heaven, and I feel I shall soon rejoin it there, for Fanny has always promised to take we from the earth soon after herself, if she died before me." Two months after, Mendelssohn died of the same disease. The obsequies of Felix Mendelssolin Bartholdy were celebrated with great pomp, at Leipsic, in the Chapel of the Univers:ty, the professors and students of the establishment, all the distinguished person ages of Leipsic„ and many of the artists of Dresden and Berlin being. present. At ten o'clock, P. the coffin Was closed and carried to the station of the Berlin railroad, followed by more than 2,000 persons bearing witches. When itreached Berlin it was reoeived by a vast concourse of persons; and the bier, ornamented with branches of oak and a crown of laurel, was conveyed, in a magnificent hearse, drawn by six horses, to the cemetery of the Holy Trinity, the crow) following it with uncovered heads. During the procession bands of murk played the celebrated funeral march from the Grand Sonata of Bethoven. Arriving at the cemetery, the coffin was removed from the hearse and deposited in its place, six hund red young men, singing Graeber, hymn "Christ is the tesurrectien," with an accompaniment of wind instruments. ' The great composer has left but few unpublished works to add to his already colossal renown.

Itnertrinf t ertitonitnerefore, - . 'must be upon broad•and libertagronrid. -, Its 'action. must be marked with, a spirit orconciliation, for berance and comproiiiiite.', Its idea is, that the mem bers shall meet together, from all sections of a common country, and, taking elevated views, and comparing opinions, shall make such a selection of candidates as they believe a majority of the people will confirm. Any other course will almost inevita bly produce discord in the convention, and defeat in the election. No other result can be anticipated, if gentlemen go to the convention with sectional views and feelings—with a fixed purpose to force their own preferences and sentiments—with an inflexible resolution not to abide by the decision of the body, unless their will becomes the will of the convention. The Union is a broad expanse. It embraces mul tifarious interests. It is the common protector of interests and institutions that are unlike in charac ter, and about which it is natural there should be diversity of opinions; but the great idea of the EQUALITY or THE STATES, as mentbers of the Union, should never be lost sight of. 'Each, whatever its characteristics, has its equal claims to consideration. The democratic party has many members, who ; would be competent to the of f ice of President. And ' although we think that the northern, as compared with the southern section of the Union, has not had its just plopertion of occupants of the presidency, yet the great question in the case is: Who is the man who beet represents the democratic principles of the whole country, and most likely to be chosen, if put in nomination 1 Sectional preferences are as nothing in the balance with successor failn e. Such preferences may be important to those who have personal objects to attain; but they will be as light as air with those whose only object is, as it should be, the ascendancy or the democratic party,and the predominance of its principles in the administration of the government. A national convention promises but little good to the party, unless it acts upon national grounds. It must be national in character as well as in name. in this view of it, we have seen with infinite region a consideilible portion of the democratic party of New York, with some afliiliation in other States, break ing away from the broad and liberal platform on the democracy, as a national organization, • has wee Its past victories. With a regret equal to the delight of our opponents, have we seen that sec tion setting up "new tests ' of membership fur a national democracy—teats thitt, under pretence of regard fur the it clime of the slaves, tend directly to destroy all considerations of equality in the party, and reduce the south to a position of subserviency to the north—teats that are mere abstractions, with no immediate practical character or purpose. Su h a test is the " Wilmot Proviso," of which Daniel ti ebster claims to be patentee. In a spirit of personal disappointment, because of the course which things took in the last national convention, that impracticable abstraction was taken up and thrust in the way of the future progress of the party. It had no relevancy to national affairs, as hey stood at the time, It has none now. Yet it has been a fearful cause of mischief; dividing the party asunder; producing animosities and re craninat.on ; and, worse than all, it has thwarted the action of the government, impaired its effica cy, and prolonged tie unfortunate contest with Mexico ; which, had Wilmot's Proviso neve r peen thrust in,, would, in all probability, have been con eluded before this time. In the light of the Wilmot Proviso, the citizens of the southern States saw that they could not stand upon grounds of equality with those of the north; and, as might hare been anticipated, they spurned the restraints which it threatened to im pose upon them. The " test " was prejected by the north. The south said "We will vote for no man who is in favor of it!" The Wilmot men respond, " We will vote for nu man who does not adopt it I Neither will we waive or withdraw it!" " Rather than do so, omits John Van Buren,' I would see a whig chosen President. I would vote for him myself!" The man who takes such a course, whoever or whatever he may be, belittles himself! His selfish 'less exceeds his patriotism. He has( none of that spirit or concession and compromise that must ever be requisite in a national organization so triad and comprehensive as that of the democratic party of the Union. What shall be' the future character of the institu tions of Mexico, or any portion of it, h:a no more relevancy to the coming presidential election, than has a question of the future character of the unin habited regions of the continent around the northern seas; we aught almost have said, of "Symnices Hole," and his imaginary fieldt, the inner serrate of the cart. shell. No part of Mexico is ours now, or ri,flitfully can lie but by treaty. • • * It would seem, therefore, that such a stumbling bock in the way of the party, as Wiltuors Proviso, might be withdrawn without any sacr flee, if men were gererned only by principle. A refusal to do so, is the highest,evidenee that can he required, that with those who thus adhere to it, personal considerations are paramount to the success of the democracy tint its principles, which hate been well deaeoped by the past, and are no I. is essential fin the future. In view of the coming election, we are more and more convinced daily, that New Tor* will is lo,t to the democratic party: The breach there in the par. iy becomes wider every week. It is very apparent that the Wilmot men cannot have a plurality of the votes, unless it is gained by a union with .he whip ; and we fear the rest of the party will be deficient in numerical force as against all its opponents. The idea, therefore, which we hare heretofore expressed, comes'back to us with augmented pertinency—that the democracy of the other States of the Cnion will be compelled to make their arrangements to carry the election without the aid of New York; and if that cannot be done, then to submit to the disagree able alternative of fielding up the government to their whig opponents, until adversity shall produce a stronger attachment for prosperity, and the means by which alone it may be won and preserved; Powers , Eve You would hie to hear of the his loathe of Eve, which cube of taste pronounce one of the finest works of modern times. A more perfect figure ne ver filled my eye. 1 have seen the masterpieces of Thorw.ildsen, Dannccker, and Zanova, and the Venus de Medici, but 1 have seen nothing yet that can exceed the beauty of. this glorious stater. So completely did the first view excite my surprise and delight, and thrill every sense that awakes at the sight of the beautiful, that my mind dwelt intensely on' it for days afterwards. This is the Eve of Scrip ture; the Eve of Milton; mother of mankind, and fairest of all her race. With the full and majestic beauty, of ripened womanhood, she wears the purity of a world as yet unknown to sin. With the bear ing of a queen, there is in her countenance the vell um's and grace of a tender, loving woman. ..God.like, evert, with native honor slid In naked ma arty, she holds the fatal fruit extended in her hand, and her face expresses the struggle between conscience. The serpent, whose coiled length under the leaves and flowers entirely surrounds her,—thus forming a beautiful allegorical symbol i —ia watching her deci sion from an ivied trunk at her side. Her form is said to be fully as perfect as the Venus de Medici, and, from its greater size, has an air of conscious and enrobling dignity. The head is far superior in beauty, and the soul speaks from every feature of the countenance. The Two Osseo. The following true and interesting paragraphs are extracted from an article by Mrs. Sigourney, whose mind is the dwelling of light and beauty: Man might be initiated into the varieties and myste ries of needle work; taught to have patience with the feebleness and waywardness of infancy . , and to steal with noiseless step about the chamber of the sick ; and woman might be instructed to contend for the palm of science; to pour forth eloquence in Senates, or to " wade through 6elds of slaughter to a throne." Yet revoltings of the soul would attend, this vio lence to nature ; this abuse of physical and intellec tual energy; while the beauty of social order would be defaced, and the folintains of earthly felicity broken up. We arrive, therefore, at this conclusion. The sexes are intended for different spheres, and con structed in conformity to their respective destina tions, by him who bids the oak brave the fury of the tempest, and the Alpine bower leatt.its cheek on the bosom of the eternal snows. But disparity does not necessarily imply Inferiority. The high:places of the earth, with their pomp and glciry, are indeed ac cessible only to the march of ambition, or the grasp of power; yet those who pass with faithful and un pplaudel zeal, through their humble round of ditty, are not unnoticed by the " Great Taskmaster's eye," and their endowments, though accounted poverty among men, may prove durable lichee in the kingdom of Heaven. iDENTIFED.-A package of valuable penknives, found among the baggage of G.

By,this lady, late Queen of ihe French, he haa had eight children, of wheel six still survive : 1 - - Louisa, Queen of Belgium; (wife or Leopold s ) born 1812., 2.

From Sicily. . We learn 'front Captain Deane, of the bark D. Godfrey, arrived yesterday from Palermo, 12th ult., that the difficulties in Sicily had .not ceased. King Ferdinand VII. had made the concession that the people at first required, but they reffiszd all proposis dons from him, tearing in pieces the despatches he sent. The only place in the entire Island in poa session of the King and his troops, was the elide at ',levities, and that was hotly besieged by the citizens. The whole population were in arm, with such as they could get, and were getting supplied as fast as possible. 'Two large vessels loaded with munitions war,"had left Palermo for Messina, and, others were loading with the same articles for the people. The nobility appeared to ravel, the measures of the people. A meeting was to be held the first of March to decide on the future form of government. The majority or the people appeared to he in favcr of a Republic.—Jourrui/ of Commerce, ilf..rch 27. SCOLDING CiflLDlLEN.—Children shauld be taught to know the connection between action and conse quence as soon as possible. What good do you sup pose it would do to tell your boys not to roll in the dat, or run through a mud puddle, telling them as a reason that it cost the parent a great deal of labor to procure clothes for them, and a great deal of trouble to Iteep . them clean when they roll in the dirt and run in the mud with them; and then a/ ofteu as they disobeyed your orders give them a thorough scolding, and go and wash and clean their shoe•your selft I will tell you what good it does to scold at your children for doing what you have told them not to do—just as much good as to scold an unruly ox for jumping over the fence and eating the green corn, contrary to orders previously given to him. Children areloyerned by two motives; the hope of reward and fear of unpleasant consequences. A stream of scolding, as long as from sun to sun, new. er yet had any other effect on children than to ren der wholly regardless of what is said to them. If you wish to make your children troublesome, scold then) occasionally. If you wish to make them bad, scold them a little harder, loudly and more fre quently. If you wish to ruin them, and relinquish all hope of conquering them, scold cuntinnally,and you will be sure to gain your object. Paurrtt■o ANL) FllCeDt.M.—ln view of the recent French re.olrition, the following toast ghen by B. Perley Poor, F.sq., recently returned from Europe, at the Printers , Festival in Boston, held by the Franklin Typographical Society January 15th, 1848, is somewhat striking. It was as follows: 4 . The Printers of France.—May the day soon come when they will be called upon to compose a decl.rat un of Independence—impose it (with the aid of slootang-sticks if necessary 0 upon the rem nants of aristocracy--work off royalty, and distribute the la. t letter of laws restricting the press." MASSA cuusrrra AM) MEXICO..-111 one of the Mex ican proclamations, previous to the fall of their cap ital, (made up in the Government Palace,) is the fol lowing paragragh: "The Legislature of Massachu setts has resolved deliberate!), by a majority, that the present war with Mexico is a war of conquest, abominable in its objects, and unjust and unconsti• tutiunal in its character, that it is a war against lib erty, against humanity, against the Union; against justice, against the Caminitolion, and against the free State., ate." It then calls on the Mexicans to hold out until the whip in the United States get into pow er, when it is intimated, they will wi!hdraw our troop,. No one can estimate the difficulties which have been thrown in the way of peace, by the con duct of the whips! But for their course, the war would have been ended a :tear ago.
