From the Boston Courier.
TIIE‘ FUNERAL.
“Look here, 'upon this picture, and on this."
Against the walla lovely picture hung,
So true _to life it wanted but a tongue;
"I‘was a young giil’s—the face though passing fair,
Spoke more of goodness than of beauty there.
Years, years had vanished since the liin‘ncr’s power,
Stealing the,s‘n-ciieltness of a passing hour,
Had stnmpediit there, a little circle-‘s gaze,
The fond memorial of departed days.
Years, years had vanislied—whe-.‘o was she whose
face, .
Still from the canvass smiled in girlhood ’s gi'acc'I
A collin stood beside-I raised the lid—-- .
Alas 1 another picture there was bid :
What hard, stern hand these pallid features drew!
That cheek, that brow—so false, and yet. so true ?
’Tu as she—the same—tliere in her maiden bloom,
Herc cold in death and waitiiig for the tomb.
A gray-liaii'ed man leaned o’cr her where she slept,
Then to the livinglikencss turned, and wept;
Children, fond, gricvingeliildrt-ii looked within,
As if their love one answering look might win:
Vain hope! the eye was dark, and dull the car
That never, till that hour, refused to hear;
Huslied, even to them, forever hushed the tongue,
On whose sweet lessons they so long had ltull".
'.¥ if z‘?
Turn, mourners, from that face, it tells of gloom,
Aiound it draw the curtain of the tomb;
Look on this breutliing picture of her youth,
See where it smiles in beantv and in truth;
I .
Like this she lives in her eternal home,
That bright abode, where sorrow ne'er can come;
There. in the likeness that. her maker drew
I I
Ye weeping ones, she waits to welcome _vou.

to advert, in terms beyond all expectation

me all that we are, and all that we disire to
be. He has vastly overrated and exaggera-
ted any eli'ort..=.' of mine, but he has not
overrated the importance of the crisis to
which his rcniarks allude.
Gentlemen, it is buto. few short rnoiiths
since dark and portentinus clouds did linng
over our heavens, and did shut out, as it
were, the sun in his glory. A new crisis
had arisen in the history of this governmeiit.
For years our govcrnincnt had gone on,
meeting with occasional resist=1uC<‘. incl‘
dental, or ill directcd—not conccrted.——
But now, a time. had come, when authori-
ty of law was resisted by the arm of the
state government, and when millitary force
niidcr all the sanctions of the state constitu-
tioii and state law, was tlii_'etciiing_to im-
pede the operations of the I7'cderal Govern-
ment! That was gentlemen, at crisis.-
Every one felt it to be such. I, and every
good citizen of the country, felt it to be
such. A general anxiety pervaded the
breasts of all who partook of the glory of
their country at home and how was it a-
broad? \Vliy, every intelligent friend of
liuman liberty tliroiiglioitt the world looked
with ainzizeincnt at the spectacle which __we
exhibited. In a day of unquestioned pros-
perity, after half a centui'y’s happy ‘experi-
inent——wlien we were the wonder of all the
libcraal men in the world, and the envy of
all the illi/)cral—wlicii we had shown our-
selves to be fast advancing to national re-
nown—-wliat was threatened ?—-disunion !
There were those among us, who wished
to break up the govcrniricnt-, and scatter
the four and twenty states into four and
twenty sections and fragiiients.
Gentlemen, it wast at this moment, that
the I’resident of the United States, true to
every <lnty~—eompreliending and fully un-
derstanding the case,eame forth by his pro-
climation of the tenth of December, in lan-
guage which inspired ‘in me hopes of_ the
duration of the republic. It was patriotic
and worthy to be carried through_ at 0"Cl'.Y

crisis arrived in Wl1lCll:0UI' coiistitutioii was
in danger, and when he come forth like a‘
patriotic Chief l‘v'Iagisti'ate, I, for one, tak-
ing no council but pati'iotism—l'eeling no
impulse, but the impulse of duty—fclt my-
self bound to yield ; not a lame and liesi-
tating, but a cordial and efficieiit support
to his ineasiircs. ‘
Gentlemen, I hope the result of that ex-
periment may prove saliitary in its consc-
qucnces, to our Government, and to the in-
terest of the community. I hope that this
signal expression of public opinion, wliicli
has for the time put; down the Dcspotism of
Nullilication, may produce a lasting ef-
fect tlii'oiigli0iit our whole country. I
know, full well, that popular topics may
be urged against: the I’roclaination. I
know it may be said, in regard to the law
of the last session of Congress, that if such
lawsare to be maintained, Congress may
pass such laws as they please and enforce
them. But this argument forgets, that
members of Congress are but agents oftlie
people, chosen at short intervals, and al-
ways ’ rcmovalilc‘ at’ pleasure, by the peo-
ple, wliose servants in the national Legisla-
ture, are as nittcli subservient, and as will-
ingly obcdient,*as any other of their scr-
vaiits. It is easy for those who wisli, and
who piirsi.ic, measures calculated to break
up the Union, to raise the cry ofconsoliila—
tion. But I repel it. I am no consolida-
tionist—I disclaim it. I wish to preserve
the Constitiitiou, without addition or dim-
inution of onejot or tittle. For the same
reason that I would not add, I would not
withdraw. Those who have placed me in
a public station, placed me there, not to
alter the constitution, but to administer it.
[fa change be desired, our masters l1]tl.‘:'t

power of tlltOI‘t‘lL‘.y—Otll' letter ofcredit—our

without interpolation or alteration, lioncst-

States-——tliey, and they alone, can tread it
under foot, but their servants have no such
power.

that, to leave Ainerican manual labor to

of things, to wliicli our country can never
submit. This is the reason why I maintain
the policy of the American system. I see

Y_our wortliy Mayor has alluded to the‘
subject of internal iinprcvcinent. Gentle-
nicn‘,it; has always seemed extremelv strange‘
to me, that in the progress of human know-
ledge and human virtue—fo'r I believe that
human virtue is making rapid progrcss—it
has always seemed extremely straiige tome, ,
tliat the objects of government should be
limited so inucli to belligerent operatioiis
that its duties should seem to be considered
as referable so exclusively to wars with other
iiatioiis.—-Certaiiily,in a day of Christiani-
ty, in a (lay of light and knowledge, of be-
nevolent feeling and action, it should be the
business of government to turn its attention
inward
supervision are rational, immortal beings;
and to seek to piuuiute all great interests,
so far as may be within its constitutional
, to remember that the objects of its
power; and sur':.-ly, within that raiige, are
objects far more worthy of zeal and assid-
uity, than such as look to our external rc-
lations—to war, or victory, or triumph.
\Vhat in our day, has been done by vol-
untary association? Our whole govern-
ment is a voluntary association :-—\Vli_v
sliouldit not direct its attention to those
things which look for peace’! Upon this
subject, 1 will obseive, that when I came
into Congress, on takiiig‘ {I view of the
country and its interests, and concerns, at
the close of the late war, I thought it to be
my duty, to say that a siiitalile time had
come for govcruinciit to turn its attention
inward——2o survey this vast country, and
particularly this vast \Vt-stern coaiitry—-to'
make :1 compi~c]ipiisive view of the whole,
and to promote the interests of all by the
construction of canals, and other means of
internal in'iprove.uicnt, in whatsoever unites
man to man ; in wliatsoever opens a better
market, by ‘clearing the way between the
l)yo(l'u'cc[' and the consumer; in wliatsoever
connects more intimately the various parts
of our country, and binds us more closer
and cltscr togetlicr. The ‘Vest with which.
[am no more connected than with all iiiy
fellow citizens, is the greater thea‘ti'e for all
tlicseiiiternal improvenients. The cast is
old; not only old bit small. Our rivers

had been felt; during the war. Importation
in llritisli ships was frce—Aineric:iii ships
there were none. The cheaper labor of
Eiiglaiid supplied the inhabitants of the At-
lantic coast with every tliing, frpin the
crowii of the head to the sole of the foot-.
The merchants ol'Boston appointed a coni-
iiiittec, at the head of which was the name
over venerable to the mind of all true Ame-
ricans, by whom stron’g resolutions were
reported, declaring that the inhabitztnts
would nscotu any articles imported iiillritisli
