her..mother Was. inexorable.
. While this conversation was going on in
,the luxurious mansion of Mrs. -Swansmi,
two perions, sat in a sparely but yet de
cently furnished physician ' s, office, in one
of the principal streets of the city. The,
yotingest speaker was one whose ample
forehead and intelligent-eye bespoke hint
. possessed of more than _ordinary intellect:
He was on - the point of speaking.
"In this emergency, Penrose, I look to
you for counsel. You know Mary—you
know also how deeply I love her, and that
the dear girl has proMised to be mine. But
I fear we will never win the mother's con•
sent—and Mary will never marry without
it. rkirdvr-that__Mrs. Swanson has fixed
her heart on a union between this Mr.,Bart
lett and her daughter, and that every thing
that can, will be done to bring about the
marriage. But I know the 'Sweet girl 'on
this point will he firm; though her mother's
entreaties should change to persecution.—
Mrs. Swanson however—for I know her
character—will say when she learns all,
that I am a fortune hunter, and nothing
more will be necessary to prove the charge
in the eyee - of - most-pers ms, than the mere
fact that I am poor and Mary My
only heritage is a good name, and shall I
sacrifice it, riven though innocent?"
"I scarcely- know what to advise,",re

meeting 'of the long separated lovers.—
A. few words, of explanation will clOse
,our narrative. Mary had remained firm to
her troth under every persecution, and, at
length, Mr. Bartlett 'withdrew. in despair,
though it was said that the loss of all Mrs.
Swanson's.fortune and that of her daugh

little influence on his deterMination. M is
fortune softened .the mother's heart,. and
she repented of all the wrong she had done
Mary, and would willingly have bestow

his resolution, he had kept his residence a
secret, even from Mary, intending only to
reveal it when he 'could claim her as hiabiide.
At length increasing poverty forced Mrs.
Swanson with her daughter to seek a re

opportunely they met • with Henry. " We

FROM THE MEMOCILATIC EETIEW
JOHN QUINCY- ADAMS.
Our attention is now attracted to a ray
of light that glitters on the apex of a bald
and noble head " located" on the left of
the House, in' the
i neighborhood of the,
• Spealier's chair. 'lt proceeds from that won
derful man, who in his person combines
the agitator, pOet, philosopher, statesman;
critic, and orator—Jonx QUINCY ADAMS.
Who,d;at has seen him sitting beneath the
cupola of the hall, with the rays of light
gafhering and glancing about his singulatly
polished head, but has likened him to one
of tie luminaries of the age, shining and
glittering in the firmament of the Union ?
There he sits, hour after hour, and day af
ter day, with untiring patience; never ab
sent from his seat, never voting for an ad
journment, vigilant as the most zealous
member of the House—his ear evet on the
alert—himself always prepared to go at
once into the profoundest questions of State, '
or the minutest points of order—What must
be his thoughts as he ponders upon the
past, in which he has played a part so con
spicuous? ,We look at him and mark his
cold and tearful eye, his stern and.abstract-'
ed gaze, and conjure up phantoms of other
scenes. We see hint amid fes,tive And
splendid halls years back, Standing stiff' and
awkward; and shakingk tall, military-look
ing man by the hand, in whose honor the
gala was given to commemorate the most
splendid of America's victories. We see
him afterwards the bitter foe of the same
"military chieftain," and the competitor
with him for the highest office in the gift
of a filid people: We look upon a more
than king, who has filled iiery departritent

he who was Preaideht over millions.'now
