What has thrown a veil over your bappy faccj" said Mrs. Cleveland, to Iicr Iliece. one mnnim nn finriinr lipr alonc, with a vcry thoughtful countenancc. j "jjo i rcauy looUsoucr J and L,aura smil cd as she spokc. ?0. You did just now. But the sunshine has alrcady dispcllcd thc transicnt cloud. I am glad that a storm was not portended.' 'I felt sober, aunt," Laura said, aftcr a few momcnts hcr faco again bccoming se rious. So I supposcd from your looks.' 'And I fccl sober still.' 'Whyf I am rcally discouragcd aunt,' AboutwhatJ' The maiden's cbcck dccpencd its huc, but she did not rcply. fc You aud Ilarry havc not fallcn out likc a pair of foolish lovcrs, I hopcl' 4 Ob, no! was tho juick and cmphatican- swer. Thcn what has troubled thequict waters of your spirit 1 About what are you discour aged 'Iwilltcll you,' the maidcn rcplicd. It was only about a wcek after my engagcmcnt with Ilarry, that I callcd upon'Alice Stacy, and fouud hcr quitc unbappy. Sbc had not bceu married ovcr a few inonths. I asked what troubled lier, and she said, 'I feel as misctaMe as I can be.' 'But what makcs you miserablc, Alicc J' I inquircd, 'Bccousc William and I have quarrclled that's the reason,' &he said, with somc levity, tossing her hcad and comprcssing her lips with a kind of dcfiance. I was shockcd so much so, that I could not speak. Thc fact is,' she resumcd, bcforc I could rcply, 'all mcn are arbitrary and unrcasonable. Tbey tbink wo mcu iufcrior to them, and their wives as a highcr order of slaves. Butlam notonetobc put under any man's feet. William has tried that trick with me, and failed. Of conrse, to bc foiled by a uoman is no vcry pleasant thing for oue of your lords of cr'eation. A tcmpcst inateapot was thc conscqucuce. But I did not yield tbe point in dispute; and what is inorc, havc no idea of doing so. He will havc to lind out, sooncr or latcr, that I am his cqual in every way; and thc quickcrhe catibc tnadc couscious of this, thc bctterfor usboth. Dou't you think so." I made no answcr. I wn too much surpriscd and shock cd. A1I mcn," she continucd, 'havc to be taughtthis. Thcre nevcr was a husband who did not, at first, attcmpt tolonljl ovcr his wife. And there ncvcr was aiwoman, whose condition as a wife was at allTibove that df a passive slave, who did not fiud it neccssary to oppose herself at first with unflincliiiig persc vercncc.' To all this, and a great deal more, I could say nothiug. It choked me up. Sinco then, I have met Jicr Irequently, at Home aiw elsc whcrc, but she has ncver looked bappj. Several tuncs thc has said to me, in compa- i 1 ny, wnen J nave taKen a scat ucsiuc ncr, anu rcmarked that she sccmcd dull, Ycs I am dull; but Mr. Stacy there, you sec, cnjoys himself. OIcn nlways cnjoy uicmscivcs in company apart from thcirwivcs, of coursc' I would somctimcs oppose totina a scniiment nalliativc of her husband as, that in compa ny, a man vcry naturally wishcd to add his tnitc to tlie gcuerai joyousness, or suiiicimuj; of a likc nature. But it only excited hcr, and drew forthremarks that shockcd myfccl ings. l-'p to tliis day, they do not appcar to be on any bctter terms. Thcn, there is Franccs Glcnn, marncd only threc months, and as fond of carping at her husband for his arbitrary, dominccring spirit, as is Mrs. Sta cy. I could name two or thrce others, who havc been married, some a shortrr and 'somc a longcr pcriod, that do not sccm to bo unitcd by any closcr bonds. "It is the condition ofthcse young fricnds, aunt. that causcs me to feel scrious. I am to bc married in'a few wccks. Canitbepos sible that my union with Ilcnry Armonr will beno happicr, uo moro pcrfect than theirs? This I cannot bclieve. Ani yet, the rcla- tion that Alicc and Frances hold to tlieirhus bauds, troublcs me whenever I think of it. llcnrv, as far as I havc becn able to under- stand him. has strong points in his character. From a risht coursc of action or, from a courso of action that he.thinks right, no consideration, I am sure, would turn Inm. J, too, have mental charactcrs somcwhat simi- lar. Thcro is, Itkewise, about me a Icavcn of stubboruness. I trcmblc when the thought of opposition bctwecn us, upon any subject, crosses my mind. I would rather die so I fccl about it than cvcr have a misundcr standing with my husband.' Ltuira ccased, and hcr aunt, who was, she now perccivcd, much agitatcd, arose and lcft the room without speaking. The reason of this, to Laura, was altogcther nnaccountablc. Hcr aunt Cleveland, always so mild, so cahn, to be thns strongly disturbcdl What could it mean What could there be in hcr mai dcnly fcars to cxcite thc feelings of one so good, and wisc, and geutlc? An hour aftcr wards, and whilc shc yet sat, sober and pcr plexcd in mind, in the same place whcre Slrs. Cleveland had left hcr, a domestic came in, and said her auut wishcd to see hcr in hcr own room. Laura attcnded her immediately. She found her calm and self-possessed, but paler than usual. Sit down besido me, dear,' Mrs. Cleve land said, smiling faintly as her niece came in. 'What you said this morning, Laura,' she began, after a few moments, 'recalled my own early years so vividly, that I could not keep down emotions I had deemed Iong since powerless. The cause of tbose emotions, it is now, I clearly see, my dnty to reveal tbat is, to you. Foryears I have carefnlly avoid ed permitting my mind to go back to the past in vain musings over sccnes that bring no pleasant thonghts, no glad feelings. I have, rather, looked into the future with asteady hope, acalin Aliance. But, foryour sakc.I will draw aside the veil. May the relation I am about to give you, havo the effect I dc sirc. Then shall I not sutfer in vain. How vividly, at this moment, do I remember tho joyful feelings that pcrvaded my bosom when, hke you, a maidcn, I looked forward to my wedding day. Mr. Cleveland was a man, in many respects, like Ilcnry Armour. Proud, lirm, yct gentlc and amiable when not oppos ed; a man with whom Itnight have been supremely happy; a man whose faults I might havo corrected not by open opposi tion to thera notby sccming to notice tucm, but by leading him to sec them Himself. Bnt MIDDLEBURY, this coursc I did not pursue. I was pfoud; I was self-willed I was unyielding. Ele mcnts like these cau never come into opposi tion without victory on cither sidc bcing as disastrous as tbe dcfeats. We wcre married. Oh, how swcet was the promise of my wed ding day,! Of my husband I was very fond. Handsome, cducated, and with talcnts of a high order, there was cvcry thing about him totnake the heart of a young wife proud. Tenderly we loved each oibcr. Like days in Elysium passed the first few months of our weddcd lile. Uur tliouglits an6wishcs wcre one. After that, gradually.a changc appcar cd to como over my husband. Hc defcrred lcss readily to my wishes. His own will was morc frequently opposed to mine, and his contcntions for victory longer and longer con tinucd. This surprised and paincd me. But it did not occur to mc that my tenaciousness ofopinion might seem as stangc to him as did his to mc. It did not occur to me that there would bo a propriety in my defcrring to him at least, so far as to give up opposition. I nevcr for a momcnt rcflccted that a proud, firm-spirited man, might be driven offfrom an opposing wife, rather than drawn closcr, and unitcd in tcndercr bonds. I only per ccivcd my rights as an cqual assailed. And from that point of vicw, saw his coiiduct as dogmatical aud ovcrbcaring, whenever he rcs olutcly sct himself against mc, ns was far too frequently thc case. Onc day, wc had then becn married about six months, hc said to me, a little sc riously, yet smiling as hc spokc, Janc, did uotl seo you ou thc stroct this morning J' 'You did,' I rcplicd. 'And with Mrs. Cor bin' 'Ycs. My answcr to this last ques tion was notgiven in a vcry pleasant tone. The reason was this. Mrs. Corbin, a rcccnt acquaintancc, was no favoritc with my hns- baud aud he had morc than oncc mildly suggcstcd that shc was not, in his vicw, a Gt associate for mc. This rather touchcd my pridc. It occurrcd to me that I ought to be thc best judgc ofmyfemale associatcs, aud that for my husband to makc any objections was au assumptiou on his part, that, as a wife, I was callcd upon to rcsist.

'For rcasons beforc given, Jane,' he rcplied, mildly, but finnly. 'There arc rcports in cirtulation touching hcr character that I fcararc 'They are falsc!' I iuterruptcd him. 'I know they arc false!' I spokc with a sudden cxcitcmcnt. My voicc trcmbleil, my chock burncd; and I was conscious-that my cyc shot forth uo mild-Iight. 'They are truc I know they are true!'

'What doyou tncan, Mr. Cleveland V 'Thc brow of my husband instantly flush cd. He was silent for a tnonicnt or two. Thcn hc said with, forccd calmncss, yct in a rcsolutc, mcaning touc Jancl do not wish you to keep company with Mrs. Corbin.' 'I will!' was my indignant reply. 'His facc grew dcadly pale.

But he was not jn thc parlors. Hc.was not in thc housc! I asked a scrvant if "ehc had secu him, and re ceivcd for a rcply that he had goue out.' 'Anxiously passed tbt hours until night fall. Tho sad twilight as it gathercd dimly aronnd, threw adceper gloom ovcrmy neart. My husband usually came home bcfore dark'.' Now ho was away beyond his accustomed hour. Instcad of returning gladly to meet his young wife, he was staying away, bccausc that young wife had thrown ofl thc attractions of lovc and prcscuted to him featurcs harsh aud repulsivc How anxiously I longed to hear thc sound of his footstcps to see his facc to bear. his voice. Thc momcnt of his cntrancc I resolvcd should be the mo mcnt of my humblc confcssion of wrong flf my faithful promise ncvcr again to set up my will dcterminedly in opposttion to his judg ment. But minute aftcr minutc passed aftcr nigbtfall hours succcedcd .minutes and these rolled on until the wbole" night worc dtvayi and he came not back to me. As tbc gray light of morning stole into my chamber, a terrible fear took hold of mc that made my hcart growstill in my bosom the fear that he would never rcturn thatl had driven him off from me. Alas! this fear was too nigh the truth. Thc wholc of that day pass ed, and. tho next and the next, without any tidings. No onc had seen him since he left me. An anxious cxcitcment spread among his friends. The only account I could giyo ofhim was that hc bad parted from mc in good healtb, and in a saue" mind. "A week rolled by, and still no word came. I was ncarly disfract'cd. What I suficrcd no tonguo can tell, no hoart con ccive. I have oftcn wondcrcd that I did not bccomo insanc. But, from this sad condition I was saved. Tbrough all my reason, Ibough oftcn trembling, did not onco forsake me. It was on tbe tenth day from that upon which we hnd jarrcd so heavily as to bo driven wildely assun der, that a letter came to me, post roarked New York, and cndorsed 'in haste.'

No state or people were ever so abused by thc patent democracy as old Con-j necticut. Had this party succeedcd what a precious piecc of supernaculum she would have been to locofocoism, and since they have failed to carry hcr, prcsto, what a miserable old bluc light conccrn she has bccome. It is not a little amus- j ing to see with what pcrtinacity this of all othcr partics thc most aristocratic and rc- gardless of popular rights cling to the name of democracy to render its odious and tyrannical coursc palatcablc with thc people, and at tho same timc modestly stigmatizcs all the rcst of its fcllow citi- zcns, the rcal supporters of 'the genuinc dcmocratic principle ofthe grcatest good tothe grcatest number, as JFedcralists, Aristocrats.

The Iocos prc ferrcd to spend all their strength in an in ccssant prattle about Old Fcdcraltsm. And now if the account ofthe crcst-fallen-patent-Van Burcn-Dcmocrals of Connec ticut is to be bclievcd, old fedcralism has j brought as many woes upon them as thc old Grecian horse did upon thc Trojans. That same old Coon whose imagc has produccd such spasmodic effects upon thc nervcs of locofocoism in othcr statcs, scems to have no part nor lot in this mor tifying prostration ofthe party in Connec ticut. But the nation may be assurcd that if thelion hearled, and hilhcrto untcrn- fied democracy of Connecticut have been frightcncd out of their senses by the phantom of old fedcralism, it is not whig federalism. It is the fedcralism of dem ocracy which has done thc work. The truth is, modern democracy is fedcralism in masqueradc. Thc oldblue light federalists whonever forgave J. Q; Adams for deserting them in 1807 went over almost in a body, when Jackson came into powcr, and havc imparted to thc pa tent democracy the scllish and tyrannical featurcs which ever since have distin- guished it, and rendcrcd it odious to the pcople. The whig party, is the truc Jef- fersonian republican party. Their meas- urcs, especially the great measure of pro- tcction havc been advocated by Washing ton, Jefferson, Madison, and Monroe, as fundamental to the old republican party. Upon this principle they went boldly into thc contcst in the rccent elcction in Con necticut. The people have sustained them, and if the issue of Tariff and anti Tariff could have been fairly prescntcd,the whigs would havc triumphed by ten thousand majority. If hypocrisy is the homage which viccpays to virtue surely locofoco ism has displayed enough of it in eternal ly seekingto appropriatc a name which has sunk deep in the affections of the pcople for the purpose of masking their ambi tious prqjects which must be carricd out regardless of the common welfarc.

While remaining thcre several days, in consultation witu you, i iwice auutuatu tlie Young Men's Society, and other fricnds nf thc cause. I was hichlr cratified to dis- covcr such determined resolve, jn many of your most active and influential citizens, and though some ofthe more respectablc of that community yet stand. aloof, or even openly oppose our mnvcmcnts, you will find them driven, crelong, tbrough very ghame nt their NUMBER 1. associatcs, if from no highcr motivc, to cbange their position ou this qucstion. Since leaving Middcbury, I havc visited and given addrcsses in Burlington, Jericho, Milton, Hinesburgh and Charlotte, in Chittenden Co. St. Albans, in Franklin Co. and Vergennes in Addison, aud have appointments this wcek in Panton, Ferrisburgh and Monkton. I am happy to say that in almost every town, I have seen evidcncc of deep feeling and of a detcrmination to act, on this suject, witb vigorandcfficiency. Thequestion ofiiCES ces cngrosses much of tho attention of tho friends of thc cause. In Chittenden County we aro absolutely ta ken by surprise. Thero is a general move ment on this subject. Burlington, the root of this monster sin, has been sbakcn, under thc hcavy and rcpeat ed blows of that hero in the cause, Ch's Ad ams, Esq. and his able coadjmors. In a full town mceting, thc vote stood 81 in favor of grantmg licences aud laa against it, atiu tuat too in a town, be it known, where there arc 50 liccnced rumscllcrs Let no man dcspair ofsucccss, with such a fact bcforo his cycs. I held two mectings herc, the last bcing vcry numerously atteudcd. 1 Ii.xF.snunaii caught tho strain at onco from Burlington, aud in town meeting but onc vote was east in favor of licences, aud that by a distillcr who lovcs to drink his owu liquor. At Jr.nicnoa mceting was appointed on Saturday aflr.rnonn, which was addrcssed by Mr Adams and mysclf. Tho follow ing Monday a town Mceting was hcld, which, it is said, was somcwhat uproar ious, but a rcspcctablo majority voted against all liccnscs. In Milton wc had a cood mceting. A majority of thc civil nulhoritr arc opposed to grantmg liccnscs, and a largc mnjority I ot lcgal votcrs in thc town will go with them. A town mceting is appointed to act on thc qucstion. Milton is safo for thc next ycar. 1 hey now havo thrcc-. rum sellcrs; one, in thc west part of tho town, dqclarcs himsclfmnro of a cold wa. tcr man than ho is supposed lo bc. "I put," says he, a good dcal ofitintomy. rum."

This ycar they will act wiih graat unanimity on this qucstion. I am fold that Williston has gone against all liccnscs, with but ono disscn- (ing vote, Essnx and Huntington have actcd on this qucstion with tho samo rc-, sult. Colchester alonc, thus far, has vo ted in favor of rum. If tho frieuda of Tcmpcranco in this County will sccure thc influence of a fcw moro towns, thc dcath-knell of tho lcgalizcd traffic will spcedily bo hcard, and thc county be frco Irom tho guilt wlnch attnchcs to such a salo of intoxicating drinks. lhc town orot Ocorgo has no slorc nor tavcrn whcro rum is suld, and but ono man who drinks intoxicating liquora U known in Iho placc.

To thc Fditors of Oic Xalional Inltlligincer Geutlemen: Subscquent to my departuro" from Ashlaud, iuDcccmber last, I rcceived various communications from popular csseni blagcs aud private individuals, requcsting ari cxprcssiou of my opiuiou upon thc qucstiott of the Auuexation of Texas to the United States. I have forborne to reply to thcm.be cause it was not very convcnicnt, durirg thtf progrcss of my journey, to do ao, and for othcr rcasons, I did not think it proper, unno' ccssarily to iutrothicc at prcscnt a new clc" rucntatnoug tbe othcr cxcitin subjccts nhiclf agitatc and cugross tbo public uiiud. Thtf rcjection of tho ovcrlurc of Texa'i, eomc" years agn, to bccome annexed to thc nited Statcs, had mct with general acqilicsccncc Nothiug had since occurrcd matcrinlly to a ry the qticstiou. I had secu no tviilci.ee of a dcsire bcing cntcrtaiued, ou thc part cf any considerablc portion of tbo Auierican pcoplo, that Texas should bccome an intcgral part of the United Statcs. During my sojourn iif New Orleans, 1 had, indecd, becn greally sur priscd, by information which 1 rcceived from Texas, tbat in thc coursc of thc latt fall, a voluntary overturo had procecdcd from the Kxcctitivc of tbeUnitcd ijtates to thc author' itics of Texas, to concludc a trcaty of AnncX ation; amthat in order to oTcrcome thc re pugiianc'c felt by auy of them to a ucgocia tionupon thc subject, strong, and ns I bcliev cd, crroucous reprcscntations had been made to them of a state of opinion in thc Scuater of the Unitcd Statcs favorablo to the ratifica tion of such a trcaty. Acconling to thcsc rcprescntationj, il had becn asccrlained lhat auuniucrot ccuators, varjing Irom ttnrty firc to furty-two, wcre ready to sauctiou sucll a trcaty. I was aware, too, that holders of Texas lands aud Texas scrip, nnd spccula--tors in them, wcroactivclycngagcd iu pronio ting tho objcct of annexaiioii. Still. I dit! not bclieve that any Exccutivo of tbe T'uite't Statcs would vcnture upon so gravc aud mo ineiitous n procccding, not only without aiiy" gcuend iiinuifcstatiou of public opinion iu l.i vor of it, but in dircct opposilicn to t-'ong and decidcd cxpression of public disappro bation. But it appcars that I waa rnistakcu To thc astonislmicut of tbc wholc naliou, wc arc uow iufornicd tbat a trealy of anuexntioif has bccu actually coucludcd,aud is to be sul mittcd to thc Scnatc for its consideration. Tbe motivca for my silcucc, therefore, nc longcr remaiu, aud I fcol it to be my dnty to prcscut an cxpc;i;iun of my views arrd opin lons upon thc qucstion, forjwhnt they niay bc'worth, to thc public coMsidcratiuu. I a dopt this mcthod as bcing morc convcuient tliau several rcpli:s to tbe rcspcctirc coimuu nicatinus which I have rcceived. I rcgrct that I have not lhc advantageof a vicw of thc treaty ilsclf, so as to enablc inej to adapt au cxprcsion or my opinion to tbc acttial couditious and stipulations which it conuins. Not posscssing that opportunity, 1 am coustraincd to trcat thc qucstion accord ing to what I prcsunie to bc thc terms of tbo treaty. If, without the lou of national char acter, without the hazard of forcign war.nitli thc gcucnil concurrcnco of tbe nation, with out auy dangcrto thcinlegrity of tho Union, and without giving au unreasonablc pricc fnr Texas, the qucstion of anncxntion were prc scnted, il would appcnr iu qnile a difTerciit light from that in which, I apprchend, it i now to bc reganlcd. The United btates acquircd a titlc to 1 ex as, cxtendiug, as I bclieve, lo thc Jiio dcl Nortc, by the trcaty of Louhiana. They cedcd and rclinqnishcd that titlo to Spaiu by tbc trcaty of 1819, by which thc Sabinc was substituted for the Itio dcl Nortc, as our v ca ternboundary. This trealy was ncgociaud under the administration ot Mr. .Honroe, and with thc concurrcnccof his Cabinct, of trhicli Messra. Crawford, Calhoun, aud Wirt, bcing a mnjority, all Southcrn gcntlemcn. coniposeil a part. When tho trcaty was laid bcforc tbo Housc of Rcprescutativcs. bcing a mcmbcrof that body, I cxpressed the opinion. which I thcn cutcrtained, and still hold, that Texas waa sacriflced to the acquisitiou of Florida We wantcd Florida; but I thought it must, from its position. inetitably fall into our pos sessions; that the point of a fcw years, soon erorlater, was of no sort of comequencc, and that in giving Cvcinillions of dolIars"nnd Texas for it,we gavc more than a just equiv alent. But, if wemake a great sacrifico in thosurrcndcr of Texas, wo ought to takc care not to makc too great a sacrifico in thc nttcmpt to re-acquire it. Jly opinions of the incxpcdieocy of iho treaty of 1810 did Dot prevail. Tbe country and Congrcss wcrc satoGed with it. appro priations wcre made to carry it into cflect.thc linc of the Sabine was recognizcd by us as our bouudary, iuncgociations withbothSpain and Mcxfco, after Mexico becatnc independ ent, and measures have been in actual prog rcss to mark the linc, from the Sabine lo tho Kcd Rivcr, and thencc to thc Pacific Ocean. Wchave thus fairly alienatcd our titlc toTex as, by solcmn national compacts, to thc ful nlment of which wo stand bound by good faiih and national honor. It is, ihcrcfore, perfectly idle and ridiculous, if nntdishonor able, to talk of resuming our titlo to Texa. as if we had never partcd witb it. We can no more do that than Spain can resumcFlor ida, France Lonisiana, or Great Britain tho thirtcen colonics, now compojing a part oi tbeUrited States. During thoadmimstrau'on of Mr. Adams, Mr. Poinsctt, Ministor of tbe Unitcd Stalcs at Mexico, was instructed by me, with tba Prcsidenfs authority, to propose a re-puf chase of Texas; but he forcboreevcn to ma,e an overture for that purpose.

ded that, if he raad the overtnro, it would have no otber ctfect than to aggravate irrita tions, already existing, upon uiatlers of diff erencc between the two countries. The evcnts which have siuce transpired iu Texas are well known. She revolted against the government of Mexico, fleir to arnisrand fiually foughl and woo the mcmorablo battle of San Jacitito, annibilatinga Mexiean army, and making a captive of the Mexiean Prcs ident. The sigual success of that revolution was greatly aided, if not wholly wcliicved.by citizens of the United States who had cmigra ted to Texas. These snccors, if they could not always be preventcd by the government ofthe UnitedStates.were fumished in a man ner and to an exteDt wbicb brouglit upon us tomc national reproach in the eycs of an im partial world. And, in my opinion, they im pose on us the obligatiou of scrupulously a voiding the imputation of ving instigated and aided the Revolution itth tho ultimate view of territorial aggrandizcineut. Afier the battle of San Jacinto, the United States recognized the indepeadcnco of Toxas, in coufonnily wilh the principle and pracu'cc which hare always prerailed in their councils of rccognizing the government "dt facto," without regarding tho question de jurc. That rccoguitiou did not afiect or irapair the rights of Mexico, or change the rclation3 which existed between her and Texas. She, on the contrary, has prcservcd all hcr rights, and has continued to assert, and so far as I knmv. rct asscrte, her richt to reduce Texas to obedience, as a part of the Republic of Mexico. According to Iate mtelligence, 11 is probable that ehe has agrecd upon a tcmpo rary &uspeniouof bostiliiics; liut, if that has been done, I presume it is with the purpose, ntion the tertuination of the arinistice, of re- newiug the war and euforcing her rights, os ibo considers thcm. This narrative ibons tlio present actual eondition of Texas, so far as I have inform atiouabout it. Ifit bo corrcct, Mexico has not nbaudoued, but pcTSererca in the asscr- tio:i of her rights by actual force of arms, rhich if snspended, are intendcd to be rcuew- cJ. Under theso circumstanccs, il the gov. emment of the United States werc to acquire Texas, it would acquire aloug viiih it all the incumbranccs which lexas is under, and a tnong thom the actual or suspcnded war be twccn Mexico and Texas. Of that couec quencc therc canuot bo a doulit. Aunexa- tion aud n-ar with Mexico aie idcntical. No for one, I certainly atn not willing to involre this country iuaforeign war, for the oliject of acquinn Texas. 1 know there are those who regard such a war with indilTcrencc and as a trining afiair, on account of the ncak- ncss of Mexico, and herinubility to indictac rious tnjury upon this country. But I do not look upon it thus lightly. I rcgard all wars as great calaraities, to bcaroided, if pos sible, and honorable pcacc as !hc wiscst aud truest policy ot this country. uat the Ini ted States most nced are union, peace, and patiencc. Nor do I think that the n cakness of a 1'owcr shouldjforin a motive, in nny caso for lnduciu" us to engage in or to deprcciate thi cvila 01 war. Hunor and good faith and justice are equally duc frora this country to- warus tue wean as towarcls tuc Etrong. And, .if an act of .mjustice werc to be pcrpctrated tonards any power, it would be tnnre com- patible with the dignily of the nation, and.in my judginent, less di;honorable, to inflict it upor. a powerlul instead 01 a weak lorcign oation. Butarcwo perfectly surcthat we should be free from injury in a state of war with Mex ico; Have we any security that countlcss nmnbcrs of loreign tcsscIs, under tho author ity and flag of Mexico, would not prey upon our dcfcnccless commcrce in the Mexiean Oulf, on the Pacific occan, aud on every oth er sea and ocean.' What commcrce on the otber handdoes Mexico olfcr, as an idcmnity lor our lu3C9, to tlie gallnutry aud enter prisc of our countrymcn? Thi ricw of the su'iiect supposes that the wat would be con line.l to the United States and Mexico as the only belligereuts. But hax-c wc any certain guaranty that Mexico would obtain no allies among tue grcat Auropean r.owcrs isup pose any such Powers, jealous of our incrcas- ing prcatucs.', and disposcd to clieck our gronth anu cripplc us, wcre to take part 111 bshalf of Mexico in the war, how would the diilerent belligefrnts prcscut thcmsclrcs to Christendom and thc culightcned world? We have bcen seriously charged with au inordi natespirit of territorial aggrandizcment; and withont admitting the justice of the charge, it must be owned that wc have made va9t ac quisitious of territory within tho last forty yeirs. Suppose Great liritain and France, ornne of thcm, were to take part with Mexi co, and by a mauifesto, wcrc to proclaim that theirobjects.wcreto assist a weak and hclp less nlly to check thc spirit of cncroachincnt and ambition of an already overgrown repuh lic, secking still (urthcr ncquiskions of tcrri rory, to maiutain the indopendcnce of Texas, disconnectcd with the United States, and to prevent the further propagation of slavcry from the United States, tvhat would be the ciTect of such allegations upon tho judgment of an inipartial and enlightpued world? Assurniug that the anuexatidnof Texas is war with Mexiro, is it competent to thc trua-ty-mik.ing- power to plungo this country into war, not only whhout the cuncurrcnce of, but wthont deigning- to consult Congrcss to which, hy Jthe Constitution, lelongs exclu sively the pnwcr of declaring war? I liave hilhcrto cousidered the question up on the 6upposltiou that thc annexation is nt- temptcd without the asscnt of Mexico If she yields hcr conscnt, that would matcrially nflcct thc foreijn aspect of the question, if it did not rcmore all foreigu diflicultics. On tha assumption of that asscnt, tho question would be couiined to the doniestic cnnsiilcr atious which bclong to it. cmbracing the tcnns aud comlitious upon which annexation is proposcd. I do not think that Texas ought to be receivcd into the Uuiou, as an intcgral part of it, in dccidcd opposition to ihc wish- Ei of a consiucranlc aml rcspcctable portion of the CoBfederacy. I thiuk it farmorewisc an i important to composc aud harmouizc ths present Confederacv, r.s it uoiv exists, ili.in to iutroduce a new clcmcnt of discord r.nJ distraction into it. In my humhle opin ion, it should be thc co:i.:ant and carnost cn deavor of an Amcrican statcsman to eradi cate prejudiccs, to cultivats and fosier con cord, and to produce gencral cnntentmcnt a mong all parts of our coufcdcracy. And true wisdom, it seem3 to mc, points to the duty of rcndcring its present Jmcnibers happy, pros perous, and satisfied with cacli othcr, rathcr thaa to introduce alien tncmbers, agatnst thc common consent and with the ccrtainty of decp dissatisfaction. Mr. Jcflcrson exprcsscd the opiuion, and othcrc bclievcd.that it never was in thc conlemplutioii of thc framcrs of the coa6titution to add rorcigu territory to the Confcderacy, oiit of nhich new States wcre to be formed. Thcacquisitioiis ofl,ou is'Mna aud Florida may be defended upon thc pcculia'r ground of t!ic rclation in which they stood H the State of the Union. After they wcre admitted, ne m-ght well pausefa bile, people our vaet nastes, develope our rasoarces, prepare tbe mcans of defending what we possess, and auemrnt our strength, power and greatness. If hereafter furtber territory ehonld l.e wanted for an incrcascd pnpulation, we need catertain tio apprehen ons but that it will be acquircd by means,it U to be hopcd, fair, honorab.e, and constitu ttonal. Itis uwlrss to dioguise that there are those wfco epouse and those wb.o opposethe annex ation of Texns upon the ground of the influ-! ence which it would excrt in the balance of political powtr, between two great sections of the Union. I conceivo that do motive for the acquisition of forcign territory would be more unfortunate orprcgnant withmore fatal consequcnces, than that for obtain'mg it for tbe purpose of strengthening one part against anolherpart of the common Confederacv. auch a pnuciple put into practicai operation, would menaee the existence, ifit did not cer tainly caw the sceds of a dissolution of the union It would be to proclaim to the world aninsatiable and unqnenchable thirst for for- eigu conquest or acquisition of territory For if to-day Texas be required to strcngth en one part of the Conftderacy, to morrow aoothcr. And aftcr that might tiare tieen oo- tained, till other and further acquigitions wculd become necessary to equalize and ad- justtbe balance of political power. Fiually. tn tue progress ol this spinl ot umrersaiuo- imnion, the part of tue contederacy wmcti is nowweakest, would lind ltself still weaVer from the impossibihtj of secunnS new tuca- trcs for those pccuhar mstitutions which it is charged with beiug dcsirous to extend. But would Texas ultimatcly, really add strcncth to that which is now cousidered the weakest nart of the Confederacv? If mj in- formation e correct, it would not. Accord ing to that, the territory of Texas is suscep tiblc of a dirision into five States of convcn ient size and form. Of these, two only would bo adapted to those peculiar institutiona to which I hare referred, and the other threc, lying west and north of San Antonio, bciug ocly adapted to farraing and grazing purpo ses, from the nature of their soil, climate.and productions would not admit of those iustilu tions. In tho end therefure, there would be two slave and three free states piobably ad ded to the Union. If this view of the soil and geography of Texas be correct, it might serve to diminish the zeal boib of those who op pose and those who ure urging annexation. Should Texas be anncxsd to the Union, tho United Slates would -sume and be come responsiblo for the dcht of Texas, he its amount what it may. What it is, I do not knew certainly but tho lcast 1 hare cccn it slatcd at is lliirleen millions of dollars. And this responsibility will cxist, whethcr thete be a stipulation in tho trealy or not expresbly assuming thc payment of (he debt of Texas. For I suppose it to be undeniable that, if one nation becomcs incorporalod iti anolher, all thc dcbts, and obligation.s and incum. branccs, and wara of tho incorporated na tion, bcconic thc dcbts. and obligations, and incumbranccs. and wars of thc coni mon nalion crcatod by tbe incorpora tion. If nny European nalion entertains any ambitious dcsigna upon Texas, such as that ofcolonizing hcr, or in any way sub jugating hcr, I should rcgard it as the im perative duty oftho Government of thc United Slntcs to oppose to such dcsigns thc most firm and delermincd rcaistancc, to tbe extent, if necccssary, of appcaling tonrms to prevent the accomplishmcnt ol nny such designs. The Exccutive of tho Unilcd States ought to bo informcd as to the aims and vievvs of forcign Powers with regard to Texas, and I presume that, if there be any of the czceptional charac ter which I have indicated, tho executivc will disclosc to the co-ordinate dspart mcutsof tho Government, if not to the public, the evidence of them. From what I have seen and heard, I bcheve that Grcat Rtitoin has rccrntlv forinallyand solcmnly disavowcd any such aims or purposcs has dcclorcd that shc is dcsirous only oftho independcnce of Texas, and that she has no intention to interfero in hcr domestic institutions. If sho has made such disavnwnl and declaration. I presumo they are in posscssion of tho Ex- ccultve. In tho future progress of cvents, it is probable that llipro will be a voluntary or forcible scpnralion of the British North American posscssions from tho parent country. I am slrongly inclincd to think the fifth Chapter of Ephcsiaus, for the ad tbat it will be best for thc happincss of all monition ofthe Convention. pnrties that, in Ihnt evenf, they should The Prcsident pro tcm. now statcd that boeroctcd into a sopcrate a.id indcpcn- the Committee of two from ench State had dent Ropublic.

They would be! nalural allies, rcsdy, by co-operation, toj rcpeal ony Euroj.can or forcign atlncki upon eithcr.

They would cmulate each other in improvo mcls, in free institudons, and in the sci. enco of self.govcrnment. Whilst Texas has ndopted our Constitution as the modcl of hcrs, klic has, in scvcral impnrlant par ticular, groatly iinpioved upon it.

Da.niel Webster.tvbs there, and when he presented himsclf at'the front, there went up a cheerthat might have beeu heard almost at tho White Houso in Washington. Mr. Webster spoke with carnestness, frankness and accustoincd power. He was there, ho said, to add the voice of one Whig more to the universal Whig voice that had designated Ileury Clay. as the Candidate of tho party and ofthe Country. He had bccn long in public life with Mr. Clay, and althongh not always agreeing in opinion they had diftered without any ditni uution ofmutual regard, or respectjTatid on all csential points, oftho foreign or dorces tic policy of the country, he believed they dif fered not at all. The cause, of which Mr. Clay was thc Icader, was the one, the only ly cause of the Whigs, and for one he was willing, iu his humble way, to give it hi hear tiest support. Slr.

As soon as its grcat length five culumus iti the Globe would permit, al most every one had perused it. Tho Globe makcs no comincnts on it, and, indecd, states that no opportuuity had bccn nfTbrded for its perusal. It was not ge ncrally known hcre what sido Mr. Van liuren would take, but thero was certainly nud impres sion that he would go iu favor of anuexa tioti. That hope, howcvcr, is d;sappointed; and the friends of "immediate annexation" are already heard, in every quarter, pouring out thrcats aud dcnunciations upon both Clay and Van Burcn. Thc Calhoun organ thc Spectator has a vehement article probably from the pcn of Mr. Rliett, or at all cvents, atithorized by the Calhoun men against Mr. Clay's Iet ter.

THE BALTIMORE CONVENTION. We are happy togive to 'our readers as much as we can. aud all that it is essential to know iu relation to the nominating conven tion. Never perhaps m the political history of the country was there a presidential nom instionmado with more unanimity, or receiv ed withmore wannand enthusiastic approba tion, than that of Mr. Clay. Besides tbe del egates, the meeting was immense, and when the nomination was presented for approval one universal acclamation wentforth from tho assemblagc, which says tho N. Y. Exprcss made thebuilding ring as with tho roar of a whole park of artillery. All arose, all shout- ed, and the feeling of age wis brought into competition with the euthusiasm of youth. f In relation to tbe Vice Presidency a diver sity of views was'manifested. A spirited ri valship arose between the friends of the dif ferent candidates, all of whom were cminent Iy fitted by their talents and integrity to fill the station with honor to themselves and advan tage to tbe country. But the competition was characteriicdihruugliout by a patriotic and sclfsacrificing spirit, &ended iu theyicld iug of state aud individual preferences to tha success of tbe grcat causo which they were assembled to promote. As thc friends of tha rival candidates arouso one by one to express their adhesion to lhc nomination of Theo dore Frclinghuyscn, and pledged themselves to outstrip each other in the approaching compaign for the noble ticket which had been presented, the most enthusiastic chccrings rung through the Hall. The South, except South Carolina, who polled for John Davis wero almost unanimous for Mr. Frclinghuy scn. Mr. Frelinghuyscn will add to the strcngth of the ticket, even though headcd by Henry Clay. He was long a senator from New Jer sey, and isdislinguished alike for his Iearning wisdom, piety aud patriotism. He is a mau of high and loftycharacter, upon which even tho malignity of locofocoism cannot allix a stigma. He is now Chancellor of the Uni versity of New York, and will soon be Vice Pres'.dent of tho United states, by an over-' whelruing majority. Ilurrah for Clay ond Frelinghuyscn!! A Little Lateu.

Almost the whole fabrickof theargnmen1 disclosed by the documents accotnpanymg ths treaty of annexation, is based upon a dc sign imputcd to Great Britain by Mcssrs. Upsbur, Tyler, and Calhoun, of exerting an influence through thc govcranicntof Mexico. to procure the ab'olition of slavcry in Texas. On this ground it is that these conspirators vindicate tho negociation. Bnt most unfor- tunately, facts do not justify the premises which have been taken; and in the absenco of a narticle of evidence better than mere surmise, the British minister has peremptori v denied anv interference oftho kind. This disavowal was made to Mr. Everettin Lon- .nn nn rpcentlv to tbe Administration at Washington, and is among the documents accompanyinc the treaty to the Senate. Lord Aberdeen did, bowever, clcarly exprcss the desire of Great Britain to see slavery a bolished in Texas; but disavowed assuimng anv authoritv. and declaree that the govern- ments of Mexico and Texas to be left by her at liberty to make any arrangemeots iu regard to the abolition of slavery.or any other points. Butas with some men all gocs by contraries. this only convinced TJpshur and Calhoun of tbo impenous duty ol tne govemraeni iu ui- fence ofthe peculiar institution, and forever to perpetuale it in theworld to take speedy mcasures to annex Texas. Such is thescan- dalous logic which is to reconcile a nation of frecmen to this most infamous transaction Tho pcrpetuation fof slavery throughout all future generations, at home and nbroad. The justification isten tiraes worse that the charge itself. No wonder some or tho noble spirited whigs in the Senate trampled the documents under their feet. and that John C. Calhoun, inthe estimation of a large portion of this na tion has sunk down to the level of that fox BDd weazel politician whom he aflects to de soise. "Par nohile fratrum." They are doomed men. Peace to their maues. A New Ttler Movemest. Tho nearer John Tyler approaches his political end tbe more misehicvous he grows. Not satisfied with endangoring the safety ofthe country by the accursed projcct of annexation, he is Iient upon undcnnining tho taruT byanother abuse of the treaty making power. At the command of this madman, Mr. Wheaton, our Minister to Prussia has negociated a trea. ty wilh thc Gerraan States, by which Germa- ny agrees to reduce hcr niipost upon Ameri' can Tobacco from 120 to 70 per cent. on Lard slightly, and not to increase her duties onRlcii and for tho paltry ndvantage to a ingle article, raised in a very limited seetiou of the country, our government stipulates to cut down our duties on her silks, linens, ho- siery, toys, and fancy goods, and in fact, multitude of articles of German nianufac- ture. Nothing can bo so ruinous to the in dustrial classcs of our own country, while not a German opcrative suQers by thc reduc tiou on Tobacco. One Hundred Thousand American workingmcn will be the suflerers by this new movo of tho mad aspirant of the White house, to secure tho aid of Maryland and Virginia to his phronzied purposes of continuancc in power. It is full time that Bcdlam had claimed its own. StirrBESSios or Docuiiests. The New York American chargcs mischief-making Tyler with thc supprcssion ot important doc uments in relation to thc Texas afiair. That according to agrcement with Houston.though notcommunicated to the Senate, thc naval nnd military forccs of the Union wcrc imme- diatclyto approacb tbeneighborhood of Tex as ready (or her defcncc, in case of cmergeu- cy. Accordingly it appears in the papcrs,1 that a part of our naval forces has reccntly been ordered into thc Gnlph of Mexico, and two regiments of infantry detached to march ou to tho Texian fronticr, as occasion may rcquire. But again, where, asks tbe American is the protcst of General Almonte, .the Mexiean Minister, against the treaty of aunexation. There can scarcely be a doubt df the exist ence of a protcstfrom this, quarter, as the sent ofkMcxico to thc annexation to the U. Statcsjofa territory which sh"e rcgards as one of ber own provinces.

Consistency and character demand it, not less than self protection.

How frankly and decidcdly too doea he expres his bostility to annexation, while rcceiving the plaudits'and enjoying the bospitalities of his fellow citizens who are known to be stren uous advocates of the measure he repudiatcs. ButJJenry Clay places the commonwcalth above parties and personal aggrandizcment. Like the good Emperor Antoninus, he has uuiumg oi nis own, next to the father ot his country, we.are bold to dcclare, that s nobler hearted man, a purcr patriot, and a more enlightened and giftcd statesman never breathed in the atmosphere of the republie. It is' true he isa slaveholder, and so was Wasbiugton. Each were inhabitants of slavcboldiug states, and each have expressed their strong sense ofthe Injustice. inhuraani tyand inexpediency ofthe pecnliar institution. Says Henry Clay in one of his public speech es,' Iam no frcind to slatery. The scarchcr of all hearts knoics that mine beats high and strong in the cause, of citil liberty. We boldly ask the slanderers of Mr. Clay, when ho has made the country the victim of bi own personal aggrandizement? Wbereh he not stood erect and unflinchiug in tb caa of popular rights, ofthe union, tbe con stitution and the national prosperity Wben has he iuculcated in our national councils any other sentiroents than these of buinamty, m violable public faith and high national honor and integrity, all grossly outraged by ti abominable project of annexation I Inhi last masterly prodncuon of this great mitu with what patriotic spirit does ho nrge

So tbat by tuming the coup ler one way thc rod or brace is Icngthened, and by tuming the conpler the other way, the brace is shortened. Thus, by tuming the coupler on the npper or head brace one way and the other, thc position of thc head and all the fingcrs is chaned and made to form a greatcr or less angle with the plancof the scythe and snalh across ihe fingers, and the workman is thus cnabled to set the head or change thc anle of tbe head and fingcrs for cutlinglodged orstanding grain with cqual casc, andiwilhout3catlering;.andif tbe grain ishcavj' and thick, the coupling screw on the fingcrbraces mav lw tumedinsnch a way as (0 draw in the working cnd of the lingcr, and if ihe grain is Iight and scattering, tbe coupling screw on the fincer braccs may be tumcd in such a way as -w ill iling out the working enJ of the fingcrs, enabling tbe workman to collcct more grain.
