She was my idol.—Night and day to scan The fine expansion of her form—and.mark The unfolding mind, like vernal rose bud start To sudden beauty, was my chief 'delight— To find her fairy footsteps following me, Her hand upon my garments, or her lip Close sealed to mine—and in the klatch of night Tho quiet breath of innocence to feel Soft on my cheek, was such a full content - Of happiness, an none but mothers - krro`w- Her- voice was like some tiny harp that yields Talk() slight fingered breeze—and as it held Brief converse' with her doll—or kindly soothed Her moaning kitten—or with patient care Conned o'er the alphabet—bid most of all Its tender cadence in her evening prayer, Thrilled on the our like pine ethereal tonn, Reared in sweet dreams.

"Dreams aro but interludes which fhncy wakes, When moderate Reason sleeits r -this mimic makes Compounds a . medley of disjointed things, court_or.Cobblurs—antl-ti-ittob,ofltings."-= Among the intelligent and well educated, we find many be:ievers in dreams: and the ignorant and illiterate are almost universally the dupes of these nocturnal interludes.— They are prejudices mid superstitions instill ed into their minds while young,„.by their mirses, or some no . ksscredulous old wo men, amtare - not easily eradicated when they have arrived to maturer years. There is certainly nothing supernatural or unac countable in those- wllinderings of imagina tion. It is only when our sleep is partial and the brain continues somewhat of its ac tion, that we aro sensible of its incoher,mt operations. Our dreams are either pleasan . t. or painful, agreeable or disagreeable, depending in a great measure upon :the exertion and fatigue of the body or mind during the preceding day, as well as the . operation of the involun tary functions of the time. Whatever the mind is most engaged in during the day, will still be revolved• during our sleep. The lover will dream of his sweet-heart, the tradesman of his goods in fact— "Whate'er in (lay, the mind intensely views, I n _alcep_it i o t sa„Romoti i'l'he wearied hunlzman though he seeks his hod, Still to the field and chase is onward led: To lawyers,suits ; to soldiers,arins are dear," &.c Not unfrequently very disagreeable dreams prove the precursors of that sad fiend, incu bus, or nightmare: With which most persons .are—mare-or-loss—acquaintod.-----The-deg,-ree of -Consciousness attendant on this terrible ' - diseases exceedhate - vcr happens iii an ordinary dream, and approriche.s so near l *to reality, that it- s,almost impossible to un deceive the unhappy victim; and persuade him that he is the subject of a mere illusion. To the imprudence in eating, &c. of those who sutibr from this monster, may generally be attributed the cause; and consequently they have the means of avoiding Mil them selves. But the ordinary and credulous dreamers to satisfy- their morbid sensibili ties, and to make reasonable the operations of their reasonless imaginations, and- to ac count for all the unaccountables, resort to their dream-book,which deeipheisall. Many . a one Of the fairer part of creation,fancies she reads in her dreams her future prospects,and perchance sees her dear spouse, & a goodly number of little ones (the poor man's bless, ing!) smiling around her like cherubs; of the reality of these blessings I have nothing to say; possibly all with husbands and children .are as happy as in their dreams they have an ticipated: & many 'there arewhodream with open - eyes'of connubial joys & blessings, that . those who die unmarried never realize. Various are the means our youth resort to, to ascertain their marriage prospectsr—. They will distdrt or 'interpret almost any Armin, be it death, .famine r or earthquake, to something ruinous of a connubial life an happiness. If dreams were all golden, and could make 119 happy, surely wo havo•the means at hand, and might easily partake of what we all so earnestly desire. Love is the chain which binds us to exist ence. Love is the soother, the isoftrier o every,woe, the solace ofevery guief. When congenial hearts unite in. friendship, .the .sting is plucked,frsun adversity, nnd the'bliss of prosperity is rendertkl doubly excitrisite; Confidence establishes :ierernpire; and the 'Writ' which the kihnitiing:t!sontWould have 'Writ 'retaining, is shared` with'iniother . „ , Mtpublican Danner. • "THE LOVE OF MY COUNTRY LEADS ME TO RE OF ADVANTAGE TO MY 1..41,0W-071E6NR." and thus becomes supportable. Sympathy spreads her soft charm over life; and the woes of mortality dart across the mind, like the flitting phantasies of a dream. - But what is friendship,when compared with Love? It is like the fragrance of remote flowers, which fitintly meets the senses; or like the watery moon beams which g i ve a . soft light, but yield not warmth. THE TOMB OF A WOMAI4. AN EXTRACT. For myself, I can pass by the tomb of a man with somewhat of indifference; but when I survey the grave of a female, a si g h involuntarily escapes me. . With the holy name of woman I associate every soft, ten der, and delicate affection. I think of her as the young and bashful. _virgin, with eves sparkling, amid cheeks crimsoned with each impassioned feelhor of her heart; as the kind ItlExtionate. wife,.aserked.. in ,the .exercises of her domestic duties; as the chaste andvir tuous matron, tired of the I;Alies of the world and preparing for that grave into winch she must so soon descend. Oh! there is some thing in contemplating the character of a woman that raises the soul tar ~ Above the vulgar level of society: She is formed to adorn and humanize mankind, to smooth his cares and strew his path with flowers. In tl►e hour of distress site is the rock on which he -leans for support, and when fate calls him from existence, her -fears bedew Ids grave. Can I look down upon her ton►b without emotion? Man has always justice done to his memory—woman never. The pages of history lie open to the one: but the meek and unobtrusive ex eellemieskof the other sleep with her unno ticed in the grave. In her have shone the genius of the poet, with tl►e virtue of the saints; the et►ergy of the Man, with the ten der softness of the woman. She, tco, may have passed unheeded along the sterile path way of her ex-stence,-and 1;2It for : others=as I. now fixl-for her.

Lyons is con sidered the second Oty in France, and was the scene of desolating contests-during the Revolution of 1792; it was besieged by an army of 60,000 Men at one time, sent by the obnoxioys.Jacobin Convention, and af ter a protracted contest of sixty-three days, finally capitulated; at this time the gullotine was established, but as it despatched its vic tims by a: process too slow and laborious, the artillery was-brought to play 4portheM, Old they were- murderously-shot- down by thousands.

I promised uin my-last, some' figthtir exposition of the character of General 'Jack. son. I will consider first his tlaime tcy be thought a religious man. He attends chnieh punctually, and pays his pew rent and some• times asks a blessing before meat. Ido not pro.. r d to judge of his heart, except from his acts; and, as "faith Without works dead," we Can duly judge of -man's faith by his works. I shall not attempt to expos, acts of ordinary occurrence, as the groun)L • work fayour inferences ; but will select one transaction in which he was brought in COll4 tact with ministers of the gospel, and in which4he precepts of morality and Jeltipti were deeply' involved. ',Tot must know s --- that when General Jackson was in the Sep. ate, in 1823.'4 and '5, he, with his lady, at• tended a Presbyterian church, of which the Rev. Mr. Campbell was pastor. Mr. Camp. bell is one of the most eloquent his day, and the whole city O f. will bear testimony to his eiemtolttrit? He . e:tmets* T f-c r s i rse;tharoe nerai • c - son, on his return to the city, would take's pew in his church—hence his special ant!`;, iety for the moral character of General „ Jackson's administration, and the motile Sar what he did, which I am about to explain. - There resided in Washington, for many years, a highly respectable physician, Dr. Cravan, a native of New Jersey, liTho was a communicant of Mr. Campbell's chafe ,an in all respect's, a man of the most unblemish. ed character and standing. From this gen. tletnan, Mr. Campbell had learned that Mrs:' Timberlake, whose husband had been at see for more than a yeah, had a miscarriage, on which occasion, he had been called ttion in his professional . capacity. Thiel fact,. thuo' known to Mr additions general reputation of Mrs. Timberlake, now Mrs. Eaton, in Washington, led him to sup.. ..pose that it was a duty to his own-eongrega - r tion, to the society - of Washington, and not less to General Jackson himself, to let kin, know before Major Eaton was installed into his cabinet, something of the character of the woman he had married; lest the atm. ple of such a woman, aided_ by_the . power'___. and influence of high station, might cause a deep and lastina• b injury to the 'morals of so. ciety. Actuated by these riewa,- Mr. Camp. bell waited upon a very- particular and inti• mate friend of General Jackson, the Rev. E. S. Ely, then at Washington, and reques. ted him to make known to the General, in the most delicate manner lie could, such par• ticulars as might he necessary to enable him to understand this difficulty. General Jack son was, however, fully aware of the charac. ter of Mrs. Eaton; he had heard it from -• General Desha, of Tennessee, of Colonel . Towson, and he had boarded two winters at her father's. Besides, Eaton had written to him Ittlerhtj:=L heeu ilini intq cabinet, to get his advice about marrying ihrweinttuTar . haTtliiu-acter was7Uß mitted to be more than doubtful. General Jackson, therefore, knew all about the mat.. fer; he wanted no lights from Dr. Ely, and consequently, whenever the latter attempt.. ed to introduce it, he managed-to-avert it. The Doctor therefore - • :ny.to). without getting an opportnnity-for a-full ex. , planation. As he was a zealous supporter of General Jackson, he sutlered not _a_littla by the taunts and reproaches which now met almost every one Of his supporters wherever they went, by. reason of the - great scandal inflicted on the country, in the elevation of : ' this woman, and especially by the manifest solicitude of the President to three her upon society. Dr. Ely kit, no doubt, great, on.. cern for some relief to his own mind, and he , wrote a lettef to General Jackson % present ing, Ina friendly manner, the difficulties and' - . dangers wh,h surrounded the administra tion on accoulitq - the character of Ws. 'Eaton, urging him to devise some .realedy. General Jackson, with ap . parent frankness, replied; that if any fact should he proved a. gainst the character of Major Eaton and hie with, he, would separate them from the ad. • ministration, but lie cduld not act without ' proof, .&c. &c. 'Dr. Ely then presented the . • filet which had been communicated by Mr. Campbell ; also, another transaction,- which he was informed had occ r arred in New York, at the boarding-house-of Mrs. Keys; heals," stated, upon- the infimmatien of General Call, 4 that Mrs.' Jackson, m her life time, had ex- pressed a very unfavorable opinion.of the character of Mrs. Timberlake,. Dr. Ely wrote to Mr. Carripliell,.. advising . him of what he had written to General Jack son., Mr,Campbell immediately waited or, ,the, and frankly to him what had passed . between Dr. Ely and himself, and ~ . gave hiin his authority for the. opinion he 7 i+ had formed - 4 Mrs. Eaton's character.
