In one of the pleasantest rides we have had
about Saratoga, we found one day a cottage,
whose appearance, mole, a noble elm, alto
by_ the kside bfook Wig/.Se prattling was
forever musicaLled me instantly to suppose
it was worth visiting t mote uspacially us it
was veiv old, and had about it . the look
,of
the 18th century: I 1(0.1k about a couple of
hoots the oilier day to visit it. and having
made up my mind that it story con
nected aMI it, 1 questioned the old man
whom I found in it so closely, that I at length
ii,aiheied a title id the the of a man, Mat I
diohylit was wuith relating-to the coterie
aforesaid, and •which may by worth Writing
hew.
The widow Johnson occupied that cottage

of the «minty around. None was su well

Which she was so often gazing. " Why
gazed site thus?' she had a beyond

had left her to the ante of Mis. Johnson, sunl
inial Innr voice tailed, charged her to meet
I.er iii heaven. Nay, al er she lied ceased
to speak. she held her deughtin to het bread
%%MI her left arm, and pointing up with hit,
thin white linger, smiled a holy smile and
sought her home.
:Nits. Johnson wag not tirh in the %vat I,l's

Others Could not see—and I do not doubt it.
I have no doubt she held high communion
with her sainted mother. At all events Iter
voice fell on her eat in dreams of day as
well as of night,lintil site could lie knitter
resist its earnest call,
_
She faded fine by one the inindo that•
held het to her cottage home woe loosened;
one by one her gay git iish afleetions were
mastered and suppressed, until only one re
mained, and then she was ready. 'flue one,
love, was the mightiest of all. She did n o : .
mush that : (or she was thoUghtful enough to
know that that might live when death was
pissed; tar Mete are attentions strong enough
to reach from earth to heaven.
The muntiug ol her departure came, with
its sweet sitting flowers and atinosplicie
laden with the .odors of the country. All
things seemed to be shangely solemn. The
sun peeled curiously in at the little lattiee r
and tell -across the loot of the bed on which
the slender form of the dying girl lay. Iler
bird sang doubtfully in its cage, mid the very
cat upon the health looked up and seemed
to feel that there was something sail going
on.
The moment of agony at length came.x-
She had parted whit all but him, and° now
site held his hand limo een her two, and
smiled on his pale lace, (as pale as
and spoke- in a low sweet tone of all the
past Aud future. " Von will miss me when

Mr.. Polk's Contradktions.
The assompti n of Mr. Palk, that Mexico
had invaded our territory by ellig.ing the Rio
Gran_de relied npon by him aka justitica._
troiT ler tl.e measures..he took Which led to
open hostilities.,:
NrEirarnmation of thisroitit~ ten as he
/esents it, will show , his error.
The territory !yin: , between thtt Nueces
and ilia Rio Grande, is claimed, by Mr.
Polk, as a phrt Uf_Texas, because, when
Texas was an ludependent .nation ' she "in
cluded" that eount'ry "within her limits by
her laws !r - II this be a conclusive answer to
the objection of Mexico, and Mr. Polk says
it is, why thee. it 'allows that all the territory
'included by the laws of Texas within her
limits, is a pan of that States and the United
Slates are bouhd to delend her tight to It.
Now, the limits-of texas, as defined sty}
her laws, included all the terriiory this side
of the Rio Grande, and comprehended Santa
Fe and 'usher places in New Me If the
claws al Texas" are to define, cone usively,
what are her boundaries, she has as good a
claim to Santa Fe as Paint Isabel, and the
same relation as the hider. And yet Mr.
Polk declares that a proposition to make the
Nueces the Boundary is inadmissable,
dause, "it required the United States to dis:
member Texas, by surrendering to Mexico
that part of the. territory of that State lying
between the Nueces and the Rio Grande, in
cluded within her limits by her laws w hets
she was an independer.t republic, and when
she was annexed to-the United States and
admitted by Congress as one of the States of
ntir Union by
lie tells us in another
part of his message ; that Mr. Trist Was tiu=
thorized to pay for c cession of the province
of New Mexleo And then, as II not antis=
lied with thus denying the claim of Texas
to the boundary of the Rio Grande, he refe:s
to the fact, that her lbws did include New
INleNteo “tvithin her teditorial limits," whilst
Mexico still claims to bold it as pail of het
dominion Land suggested that "the adjust
ment of this question of boundary is impor.
taut !') The absurdity and contradiction Oi
these several propositions will strike every
one, and yet Mr. Polk heats them as If they
were really all clear. and intelligible.
Ile dues not seem to understandi that if
loin Isabel is in Texas, because she ; "inhlti.
led it by her laws with!ii her limits," so, for
the same reason, is Santa Fe, &caw, it was
also include(: by the same laws! Rued yet
he thinks; we may tiny the latter without of
fence to Texas, or doing violation to our .
own honor,- whilst- we- cannot entertain - a
ptoposition to give up the latter, as ,to do so ,
would "dismember" that State of the Vu
ion! . , .
, .
Mr. Polk ought to !lava claimed all the
ten ito7 inchicled by the laws of Texas With+
in her limits,-and we are sincere when wo
say', that we rather tegrot for his consisten
cy .t sake that he did nut do 8134 The : whole!
