The history of Auut Nancy is this: Shc was born iu.the samc house nbcrc she isnow sittiug, of pious, industrions parents; but while yet a very little girl, misfortuue came suddcnly upou hcr fathcr, and hc was was forced to mortgagc the houicslead ou which ihcy livcd. Sickncss sdoii aftcr fell upon him; vaiuly hc laborcd to rcdccm his birthrigbt; itwas swept fiom him, aud at lcn"th, brokcu-heartcd the poor mau died. For a time, his widow aud ouly clnld strug gled on iu poverty and wictchedncss, but the widow too soou folloncd hcr husband to the grave, and poor little Nancy wasleft friendless and forlora iu the norld. A kiud ueighbor rcceived the orpban cbild iulo hcr family, aud as soon as shc was old cnough ihe was put outto service. Little Naucy was a geatlc and mournful cbild, for she had known but sorrow and depcudanre. Oue bright ray illuimnated the dark mcmory of the past her carlicst days of cbildhood. To thcse, her thoughts cver rccurrcd; and oftcn would thc poor child be fouud at uighlfall, uhcii ber tasks for thc day wcre cndod, glidiug lil:c a fshadow imder thc stonc nall, or iitting with her pale face rcstiug on hcr Haud, at tbe foot ofthe large bulton-ball which shadowcd tbc little brook gurgbug past hcr falbcr's door; ihe door arnuud which nhcn a happier little tliiiii'. she had so incrrilv fportcd. catchiii; the butterflies in the deep dover, or listcniug to the biida v.lnch nowherc cver sang so sweetly. As Nancy grcw oldcr, oue all-absorbmg thougbt by dcgrccs took possession of hcr mind. It was a strane idca forone so ottug. yo poor, aud so fiiemllcss; it waslo "rcdccm," with her owu hauds that cherished siot the "liome" from w hich poi crty had drivcn fotth her dcar parents. Wheu she was about fourtccn, a lady, who had becu spcndtn? a few wecks in our village, by chance mct with tbe orpban chiU. and be iug pleased with hcrappearaiicc.and with tbc good characterwhichall thc villagersgavchcr engaced herlo attctid upon Iieisclf and child. AndnowthcstraugcdreaiiiofNaiicy'scciiicdjto brightcn.aud cbecrfnlly shc accompaiiicd hcr r.cw mistrcss to Ncw'Yoik. l?ut thc lady did not prove as kind to the forloni pirl ai fchehad promiscd. The gcntlcness of Nancy, her patieut uucomplatning disposilion, ucre adnsirably calculatcd fur the ill-ualtirc iind ir ritable tcmpcrament of her inis'rcs.

God, who suficreth not j sparrow to fall to the ground unheedcd, will hclp tbce, poor child As soou as it as night, Natcy stole soflly down stairs and out ofthe houc. She passed rapidly through many streets,ouly stopping now and then, as she wcnt along, to read the sigus. At length she stoppcd hc fore the door of a largc three story house dc signatcd by a shining brass jilate.as a "board-ing-school for young ladics." Aftcr some hcsitation she asccndcd the stcps, rang the bell, aud in a trembling oice, rcquested losee the pr'.ncipal of tho cstablishmeut. Shc was shown into a little bascment room, and not very pleasantly ordercd by the scrvant to wait. Alter some timc, me lauy ot tne uonse entcr ed the room, aud struck wi'.h the pallid couu- teuance of Naucy, spoke vcry kindly o.lier i Thus encouragcd, the poor girl.while the tears were streatmnz from hcr cycs, rclated hcrpit iful tale, to which the lady Iisteucd apparcutly with much iutcrest. "But wby did you come to me, my poor child she askcd. "Oh, madam, that I might learn. O, if you will be so good as to receivc me, I will work for you night and day; only Iet me learn a little, a very little, in your Icistirc liours." The school mistrcss was kind and bcucvo lent iu her fccliugs, with, inorcover, a little spice of romance. She smilcd atthccarucst ness of ,the child, and rcplicd Well, I think l may tnit yourlooks that vnu a're not'dcceiving me; it is a stranresto- rv you tell me, and your request is still more strange; many wouid tnink mevcryrasli to leceive oue who comes to me m iue inauner voudo;" (here hcr romauce spokc in favor ofthe poor suppliant.andafterafcw moments ofapparently pleased thought, she added;) "Yes I will take you, bnt not as a scnant. I will placeyouiu my school, and ifyouraakc that progress which I think you will, (that is, if you are sincerc in what you ask,) you will soon beable toassist.me'inteaching tbosmall cr scholars." What latiguage could cxprcss theastonish mcnt and dclight of the poor orplian as she listened to the words of the kind-heartcd lady. She could makc no reply btlt with one'pas eionate bui n of tears, falliug on her knecs,she prcssed the hand of her bcuefactress again and aga'm to her lips. Truc to her word, Jlrs.

And yet the expoundcrs of the democracy well know, in common with every mtclhgent man in the Union, that there is as tnuch diflercncc betwccn Polk and Clay in relation to the ta- riff, as between a Turk and a Christian, and that while Mr. Clayis ardentl sustained, as the very father of protcction, Mr. Polk has been brougbt into the field by mcn who have Isworn eternal hostility to this horridabomina- tion, denounciog it as unconstitutiunal, and warring against it even to menaccs of disso lution ofthe Union. From the very commenccment of his ca- reer in Congrcss, protection has been written in bold relief upon the vcry forchcad of Mr. Clay, nor has a single action of his Iife from that day to this tcnded in the least dcgrec to obscure a single linc ordotof the inscription.

IMPROVEMENT HEETING. Althcngh the weathcr was unfaTorable, and tlie audience (hin, the mceting called last weck, byihe Coniniiltee forsubscrip tions to exccute the Academy iraprovc uients, was hcld on Thursday eveninij, Charlcs Linsiey, Esq. in ihe chair, and Levi Peck, Sccretary. The subscriptiou commiltce rcported that they commenced under favorable circumstances, and liad reascn to cxpect that tb.2 amount could be raised, and can be now raised, without difncuHy, that having ascertaincd, how ever, that the select mcn had changcd their intcntions, with rcspect to a ready action conccrning a part of the plan adopted, they felt bound in view of the strong and definite assurances givcn on that point, at the preceding meeting, to report the fact, as it now stands, and ask to be excused from furthcr .service, or receive new instructions. Upon which it was by vote resolved that the commmittee be instructed to raise the neccssary funds without delay, if possible, and obtain the action of the se lect men in conformity with the adopted plan, for the streets around the common, if they cannot for the whole. After this there arose a discussion rcs- pecting the best mode of disposiug of public money lor improvcment ot tnc streets; and inasmuch as the present char ter is not so cxplicit as is agrecd to be desirable respecting the powers of the truslecs on that subject, it was resolved that a committec be raised to draw a peti tion to the next Lcgislature, and have it circulated among the freemen, for such alterations and araendments to the charter as may be neccssary. The committec ap pointed for this purpose consists of E. D. BAnnEn, Esq Prof. A. C. Twi.vixc, C. IIlLL, Esq. fJJ The Rev. John Picrpont. of Bos ton, has becn recently delivering lccturcs alternately upon Teraperancc and 3d par tyism, in various places in this state. Ile is said to be a man of great eloquencc and power. But hisposition on the subject of abolishingslavery must alarm every fricnd of the stability of the Union and the con stitution. We are told that he took the same ground as was takcn at the fiuffalo Abolition Convention which is to regard the constitution as null and void whenev cr its provisions may be adjudged by the Peoplc as immoral, or contrary tothe laws of Ged. Tlie peoplc of Vermont, can never give countcnance to such sentiments, which render the ccstitution utterly powerless, and if generally adopted, will certainly cnd in rcvolution, anarchy, civil war, bloodshed and a certain dissolution of the Union. Amidst such a variety of con iiicting opinions, civil and religious, as cxists in this country, if every man's breast is lo be the tribunal todccidcupon the validity of the constitution, if Miller ite, Mormonites, Come-out-ers, Jcws and Gentiles, Catholics and Protestants, slavc holdcrs and abolitionists are cach to obey the constitution as they undcrstand it, in etead of referring it to the judicial trihu nals of the country, then the constitution might be as well prostrated first as last.

A great sacrifice of human Iife has nl rendy attcndcd the outbrcak, far exceeding the Kcusington riots a fcw wecks since. Thc news latcr than that coutaincd in auother cohinio is, that 13 havc bceu killed and 5fj tnore woundcd. Troops continually arrive from the country, and the force is now very Smposing. But uptojuly 11th no furthcr inobs or outrages had bcen committed. The Natives havc cannon, firc arms and amuni tion, and arc detcrmincd to prevcnt any cn trancc of the military iiito Southwark. No apprchensions are now cntertained of a ic ncwal of the riots providcd the military do nct cntcr the insurgcnt district. A still la tcr papcr says that the riotcrs had brokcn up thcir orgauization, and the cannon wcrc re turacd to the places they were takcn froin. The disturbances first originated from the fact, that the Native Americans had pitched tents in Fishcr's woods near the city on the lth. On the night of that day a party of Irislimen forcibly expclled the pcrsons in chargc of thcm and demolished the tcnts. This occasioncd much exciteraent which was lilown into a fhime by the report that irms had been placcd in St. Philips church. Our rcaJcrs have scen the scquel. GALLANT LOUISIANA. If thcre is any whig state in the Union like ly to bc seriously infiuenced from our ranks by the anncxation question it is Louisiana. Holdcrs of Texas Bonds and Land scripts to thc amount of million3 on millions throng this S tatc. But thanks to the great patriotic spirit of the whig party, it stands firm to its Iirinciplcs against the most urgcnt tempta tions. Thc whig papcrs in New Orleans are in high spirits at the unexpected favorable rcsult in that city. The Tropic says that Thibodaux (a whig gain) has been elected to Congrss by 500 majority at least, and is con fideut of the succcss of Bordelon in the 4th. Thc city of New Orleans is rcvolutionized, altho probably 500 whic voters are absent from the city. Seven of ihe tcn members of the legislaturc, have been elected by the whigs. Judging from thcse results in the city, little donht remains that the whigs have secured a majority in thc legislature. Thus has Louis iana demonstrated herability to carry Ilenry Clr.y next fall hy thousands.

Bnt small doubts can rcraain that Henry Clay will carry the State. TEMPEST IN A TEA-POT. lf One of the most interesting and edify ing cxcrciscs of the Loco club iu Middlebury from its commencement has been thatof re viling the Galaxy. Several of the more dis tinguishcd luminaries of the party havedccm- cd it cxpedicnt to make the most savage as saults with a view to destroy the infiuence of a journal, which has venturcd sacrilegiously to interrupt the worship of their idol, and inter" poscd so many obstaclcs to the progress of locofocoism in Addison County. But we have never lcarnt that thcse gentlemen have iudulg cd in personal abuse of the editor. From a communication on our table made us by a certain chicl takin uotes at the last mceting, we discovcr this ungracious task has bccn assumed by a certain small twinklcr of the Dc mocracy, who has recently shone with such a dingy lustre as to utterly disgust the most respcctable portion of hisown party. Because a few weeks since in our abscncc, the friend to whom we entrustcd our papcr callcd upon an cx-dignitary to publish to the world a res- olution he introduced iuto thc Democratic club, in which he cbargcd the whigs with all theloss of lifc and property dcstroyed by the mob at Philadelphia,and allcdged that Mr Clay himself advanccd riotous doctrine, our cx- oflicial took firc, and aftcr four wecks conning over the vocabulary ofabusc,and carcfullyse Iccting thechoiccst epithet3, at thc last mcet ing ofhis club he disgorged his wholc mag azine upon us, in that bullying blubbcring sclf-suflicient stylc which so pcculiarly distiu guishcs tbis grandiloquent orator. But we have morc important busincss on our hands thau banding epithets with such a very swccj tcmpcred spccimcu of the party. We Icavc him to the petty passions, ic that silly vanity sclf-concoit which has never ccascd to de vour him.

THE MOKMONS. We are told thcre are now in the county of Addison four Monnons who havc becn elec tioucering in Bristol, Lincoln and Starksboro for Joc Smith as Tresidcut. Oneofthesea Mr. Iluston has scnt us a Pamphlct to pub lish containing the vicws of the defunct candi date on Govcrntnent. This phrenzied scct havc also cstablishcd a prcss iu New York, advocating thc claims of their favorite candi date. Recently the Mormons have held a political meeting in oncof the bcautifiil grovcs which adoni the city of Cleveland. Mr. Wititer the chicf spcaker assigncd as the rca son why thc saiuts had rcsolvcd on political organization was for rcdress of thc wrongs aod outragcs committed on thcir socicty. Thc death of Gencral Smith of course cnds furthcr political orgauization for the prcscnt.

Thc Iightening struck the conductor of the Winooski Church, and the sidewalk near Mr. Cat lin's on the hill. About one o'clock the rain and thunder again came on and lastcd for an hour or morc. Bnt the evcning brought the scvcrest and most violent rain which has occurrcd herc for fourteen ycars. It rained tor rcnts for lico liours, flooding the streets, and carrying away bridgcs and huge mass cs of earth, almost in an instant. An Extra Stage coach from thc South coming toward this village about one o'clock at night, was precipitatcd into a deeo trullv across thc road made by the carrviiiir awav of a bridire. and one of the passengers, Mrs. Whitncy the moiher of our townsmcn, Messrs. Hcnry and Stephcn Whitney, was drownded before she could be cxtricated from the coach. The other passengers four in number, were rescued. Two horses were also lost. This melancholy accident is the only one which has yet come to our knowl edge, but wc fear there are more to come. If the rain fell 'as long and as fast up the rivcr, thc dcstruction of property must have been great. Burlington Frcc 1'ress. WHIG RALLIES IN VERMONT. Thc Whig fircs bum bright among the mountains.
