The scene swam before me. I•seemed .to lie amid the. murmuring . - waters of the ocean.— The sky touched my eyes. •Sorrunts, twin brother to death, held me in close em• brace. * • • .* And now appearel l before me a beautiful female. ' Soft aerial music. played around, the musicians, them selves invisible. She was robed. in a long flowing mantle of azure gauze, which fell gracefully over her and dazzled , by its lus, tre a too close survey. ."GraCe was in all her" eleps." ; She cast.her eyes upon 'ma, lustrons•'orbs, which filled me with an 'un utterable longing to know, more of ' her ; but the words I would have spoken died away ere they pslssed my lips. She rais ed her hand, her ,white delicitte t rhe music ceased, and yet gave place only to sweeter sounds. `I am,' she said, one of. the seraphs of air, my dwelling place among. the flee cy/clouds. It was long my, destiny to fol. IoW in .the track and keep up' with the chariot of 'the gun. Since. men devoted themselves to the pursuit of the. arts , and aiences, Apollo has appointed me his a gent on earth, an&corrAmitted to my hand other and more delightful duties. The sage .Igtima_cinee„boasted me_his-associate,j Plato, too. I have selected many (torn all'elimes, with whom 1 have_ abode for a season i but .few have 'had the happiness of beholding me. My name" amongse 7 raphs is Glenckphose. You are, 'young' Man, about to enter ,tiPon - life,a busy scene, a scene , of joys and sorrows, of happiness and rritiniryi --- - -- The path of youth is beset.with dang ers, and often the great -,: - • eat-ills lie s concealed under the most at-, ,tractive semblances.: Attend to—me t z an you shall have aclue • to the ..labrYtthine. way. And remember, it is. in yoUr pow er to liv , e :loved„ honored and respected, an example to future times, or yours may be a name for the loathing of. posterity, - ' or but to appear upon the stage of action and pass away . as that which has never , been.—unhnown, unhonored, unlamented. You have within you a.strong desire for excellence—yon have ambition. Let this be directed towards a prpper object, and let this•be the sole .object of life. Strain every nerve, and task all the energies of your mind in. this pursuit. Let not the pleasures in"which youth loves to indulge sway - you from your path. Remember that knowledge .is power; fear not to drink deep at her fountains. Shake tiff dull sleep and let him have no more sway over you than nature requires. Shall . I speak .of-teniparance.- What need! if not twit perate the power of thought, the magic of. the mind" is clouded, is of no avail.— for man, there are high destinies,' noble objects ; imitate not, • then, the brute that perislies. If you would take a partner for life, let no influence of 'friends cause you to disregard the voice - of the affections.— Marry her for herself, not for the adventi tious qualities she may possess. Bear in mind that " the only amaranthine flower on earth - is virtue," and let garlands of this encircle your brows. If you would find certain happiness'in life"—.' The voice ceased. She , turned, and with a warning gesture, amid the most delightful harmonies, vanished 'from before me. I endeavored to follow, but was bound by a spell, ah. irresistible enchantment, to the spot. She had passed To the land where sin had never been, A land of lose and a land °flight, Without e'en sun, or moon, or night; • Where the rivers swayed a living stream, The light a pure celestial beam,• The laud of spirits, itlyould seem, A pure, an everlasting dream." And I was not alone, Am casting my eyes around, Iv saw a youth with flailed countenance, long and flowing hair, ad vancing briskly towards me, The very sight of him. seemed to fill me with a eel , : tain indefinable pleasure. My blood danc ed ,through my veins. He held in his hand a mnp crowned with flowers, and with a clear sweet voice he thus addressed me : ' You see before you, an attendant upon -Venus, a star to mortals; but among us, the most lovely of the nymphs of heaven. She bade me appearlto you and offer a place among her worshipers. She is one who rewards her votaries , with a never ending, round of pleasures and Are you fond of music, you have only to desire it and :the fa eat of her celestial choir will fill the air with melodies, You shall join in the' dance with fair girls, and feast on dainties-the most exquisite:— The fairest prospect au placie de.eieux will rise in lustre before-, You.'

Tho music 'that had Ceased while my fair conductress Was speaking, was again resumed. A choir of •srtirits who seemed to hover a-quad us, at len g th, after a short prelude, sung of Adam and, Eve, emparadiced in the blissful bowers-of Eden, of the loves of Abelard and Eloise, of Juan and' Haidce. Whilel listened in rapt attention, Soft and bewitching emotions scented to steal over meal. I met the glance or Symposia's spatting eyes. Ilow beau: tiful she looked I Uuconsciousness.of the present fell upon me, I knew not where I was, mayhap in the seventh heaven. . * * In daneing,feasting and merriment,days, weeks, months glided by. My temples were bathed in the Lethean - stream of for getftilness. The past, the future were no more to me. To, enjoy the present was all•for‘ which my bosom panted. • • While in this state of mind; 'there one day entered our bowers a young man of noble presence, intellect and commanding features, and. an elegance of gait and grace of manner that! had never seen surpassed. I looked around for my Symposia;that she . might also note him, and judge my sur prise, when I found that , she had already left me. She advanced towards the stranger and welcomed him as she had before wel comed me. 'l;soon' perceived a glowing intelligence 'arising between them, and a new emotion,. one unfelt beflire, began.to burn in my veins.—l-percelved-myself-hrwsh - ort - thne neglected amlthe "green eyed monster" took entire possession of me. I .wander ed through the groves in a most unenviable state of mind. I vented my rage in curses, my grief in unmanly tears. It chanced that one day I threw myself down by a fountain, and casting_ niy eyes upon it, I saw my image reflected from the clear mirror. Heavens ! could it be possi ble that the• features I there:sew, could be my own Y Was the bloated countenance,. there presented, ..the protruding. eyes, the carbuncled nose, the bending form, identi cal with him of Whom it had been said, he was • "The fashion's idol, person, pen, and lyre, The self-devoted darling of the fair ?" • From that moment, in the bitterness of my feelings, I determined to reform my Jife. - Counsels of the sweet seraph were again present to mind, reviving what no bleness of spirit yet remained, and I made a vow to sacrifice at her shrine, alt the fol lies of the past.and devote myself to -,her for the rest of myffi days. Yet the dicul ties of breaking fiem the gym bands which had se long enchained me, weiglied upon te7 !spirit, and remorse' rOMained knobking at my heart.

It treats,of the true modeofrestoring a sound Currency. ; examines the. defeated Exche quer plan; and presents the defeat of the Whigii in the State elections last fall in their' proper light.and . presentsn case .well calculated tolnspire us witfi confidence in the next great contest in 1844.-' There is no doubt but that 'the treachery orrOhn Tyler prevented thousands from 'going to •the polls last fall, who when the question of electing his, successor - coines „up will rally with enthusiasm around the trium pliant. standard 0f,.1840': "We never could haven currency in this country such - as viould restore ,kosperity unless it was based en nu association - of capitalists in the form of a National Bank. linstead of making sucli,corporations pay a bonus to the Government, the true -policy was to refuse any bonus and limit them in the amount of _their profits. In- this man ner we would take away_from=them-all ..temptations-b-y--an excessiie-lisue--to-injure the country, and would put it idtheir: pow- . yr, if the amount of' issues, Was made to depend upon their specie, to enlarge -the circulation of the 'country, to, benefit the country, and give vigor and—animation to trade and coinmercel" The greatevil in the country now. was the diminution of the currency and the approximation to the gold . and silver standard. It was that operation which had ground down the leadingpor tion of the community, those. who had id volved themselves by the purchase of pro perty,and which had - prolfl the distress now pervading the country from - one -end to the other, to such an extent even that women in Philadelphia, without crime, were applying m i . the magistrates - to send them to, jail for support. This condition of things had been brought on.by this yery expansion and were of the currency. Purchases were Made While the expansion continued; • the restrictive operation took -place, under which there was an • apPrOxi mation to " a gold and silver 'standard, and the circulating medium was reduced to one li what it was ; and then two, three or four times as much property as was before necessary bad to be sold to produce the a , mount of'the payment. That was the, operation which was grinding the country In duet, audit), Yorne.dy.....w to create a - National Bank, which, instead of still further diminishing the cileienting medium, might have a tendency to enlarge it, to increase it on a sound.basis. If we could, by operating on the currency of this country, bring up the 'slices of labor and of other 'articles highert.lian they were in other countries, we would thereby enable our citizens to obtain more of the comforts oflife than individuals in other countries did. NoW-this Exchequer plan of his friend from Massachusetts, (Mr. Cushing,) in 'stead of. increasing the 'circulating Medium of the country ; instead of enhancing the prices of labor and property ; instead of operating as dremedy for the existing state of affairs, simply proposed that dollar for dollar for the specie- on hand be thrown out for a circulating medium ;and, so far as it operated.cnd the prices or on the labor of the country, it would have -no influence in remedying the evils which existed. What would it do ? The only effect of it would . be to enable the individual whd might have' a thousand or ten thousand dollars in specie to deposit it, and get a portable currency that i e - might - cariy - abou rin tiffspocket. Was it worth while to permit an institution of this sort to go. into operation, when that was its only effect, so far as the business and currency of the country was concerned? Ile (lid not look at the Exchequer in this point of view as a fiscal agent of the dov• ernnaent ; that was another other question. Ile was taking it at this time•simply in contrast with a Bank of the United States. As a mere fiscal agent its operations would not be more beneficial than the sub=trea- Bury of the other party.. it would have no - good effect as a remedy for the dis tresses of the country ; it proposed to fur nish no additional amount of 'gold and sil ver which was abstracted from circulation. It had been said on that flour, that .the Whiff party was prostrate, and that it was iii Capable of making any effort hereafter to . resuscitate itselff rom the overthrow had sustained from the loco foco party in the fall'elections. He believed that ,these de , durations,- made from various quarters, proceeded more from_ the . _ fears.of Oro in, diViduals making them, than from the solid convictions of their . judgments.

Everything was tending to forth parties on --principles, and not on men ; and issues made up on prin ciples alone would] induce people•tci go to the.polls and vote. Those who had kept away from the polls had seen•that their votes.motild...do' no good ; and therefore- . _they—had,An-perfect—disgust at those who had prevented the adoption of the measure's they believed -indispensable to the welfare I of the conntry, refrained from voting atthe ate elections: , • How was luny 'Ohio.? The loco loco triumph there 'was a minority triumph, and they had a minority Governor. There was also the same filling offin the number • of votes polled, as was exhibited in the New Yurk elections*. —Sir;the conduct of the &cud and'of Ale Tyler had kept dm . . people away-from the polls. (A member asked not the same conduct tinue ?) No, sir; Yeti can't keep' then a way in 1844?—The "constitutional fact" will cpmpel.them to go. The time is not yet arrived *hen itli - nedessary thew tp exert theinselves but the demonstratiOn they-mXde in 1842 in behalf, of the princi ples, of 1840, will-convince their adversa ries that the Whig party are strong and u nited. • _ -The gentle Man from Virginia (Mr. Wise) said the other day, that, if waked, up at six o'clock any ;naming, .he could have told . what John Tyler would do in regard to a bank of the United States—that a bank bill would,not be signed by him. ° That was information which , the people of this country had not in their possession. It •was not-belillved in-his section of the - cou - n 7 , try. The very fact that Mr. Tyler attend, 61 the Harrisburg convention—the very fact, which was known,• ihat-Mr. "Clay was his favorite candidate for the Presiden• cy was enough to show that •he would have approved and signed" anything Mr. Clay would have approved and signed. Now, he would ask With what consis tency could Mr. Tyler, after being in fa vor. of Mr. Clay's selection for the Pres idency, who Was known to be the: advo eate"of.a United States hank, pretend'that he was not looked upon as being also in fa, vor of that measure ? ----He concluded by expressing it as his. belief that 'the next Presidential contest would be dechled upon the question as'io whether there 'should be a national curren cy, based on individuals funds; •on the question,. of distributing the proceeds of the public lands to the States, to whom, as he_tbought; they rightly belonged; on the question of restricting the power of the Executive ,by limitations upon it, thttegli an amendment to the Federal Constitution; and on all thosst_o_ . titer measures which had become the standard faith of the Whig party. When the contest wined on ques tions like' theie, he as firmly '.believed` that the people would decide it in . favor of the ascendancy of the Whigs; as now believed he was talking to the House of Representatives. It must' be so, or the institutions of the country could not be preserved. Without it, they would not be, worth preserving.
