“A Suom‘ LIFE AND A MERRY ONE," is an
adage oftett applied to the evanescent and mu-
latiog affairs oftbis world, but in its application
'0 politicsfattd particularly to the \Vhi,g party.
we must for propriety’s sake. drop the latter
moiety of the sentence; for short as has been
ourday. it has__been a painful and troublous one-
No sooner had our fbrttme.-«reached their achme,
than one untoward event followed in quick suc-
cession on the heels of another, till at length
indifliarcnce, disalfection and disunion. is pretty
much all that is left to us. And what are the
causes that have lead to this state of things.
The question is put to us almost every day.
Some have ascribed the originyofthe evil to the
l vetoes--some to the dismemberment of the
Cabinet-—others to the address of the \Vhi2s
in Congress, and many to the disappointments
every where felt at the President allowing loco
focus to remain in oliice. Though we do not
pretend, fully and explicitly to account for this
result, yet we doubt not but that the vetoes were
the leading cause. while each of the subsequent
events in the catalogue.in their turn, tended to

that ittdiffere-nce and disgust very generally pre-
vail in the whig ranks. This is clearly evinced
by the thousands who refuse to attend the polls,

T I secure undlenjoy the fruits oftheir recent tri-
umph. And is it to be wondered at? After so
many veers of toil and labor-—ofintense 5: pain-
ful exertion to procttre a change of rulers, and
after that change has been efli-.ctetl itt a victory
more brilliant and gloriousthan that ofany oth-

nUlI'Il):‘:[' who look upon our national existence as
depending ttpon the existence ofa bank, yet we
cannot but tltink, that, had President Tyler met
the expectation of his friends and signed the
bank blll—had he-—in-the language ofa cotem-
pory-—proclaimed union ariioug the whigs, and
practically enforced it--had he manifested to-
wards Mr. Clay and his friends the same friend-
ship and confidence bestowed upon Mr. \Veb-
ster-—had he inscribed upon his banner, “One
Term, htmorablc and successful to the Country”
—had he removed the active politicians from
office. and appointed honest and capable friends,
no man would have wielded power with more
glory to the country and ‘to itimselfthan John

Whigs when the fatal Veto came—the Cabinet
in was dismembered——the hopes ofthe \Vhigs de-
stroyed, and discouragement and despair sur-
rounded us in every direction. It was a cruel
sat-rifi e of the cottutry as well as of the party.
and we are much deceived if President Tyler
has not discovered it before this time.

Mt-;LA.\'cuot.v Sutctnis.-On Friday, the
15th inst Miss'Estlzer C._Frenclt, adopted daugh-
ter ofM.r David Sr. John of this‘ town, comtnit-
ted suicide by drowning" hersclfiu a well. The
system ofthe deceased hurl l)Ht1'n left in a disor-
ded condition from an attack of the measles,
which in spite Ofllle Cllt)l'lS of friends and med-
ical treatment, lead to a rapid decline. Her
mind became at length aH'ected,and melancholy
and despondeucy followed. Ashort time before
her death, she fancied herself unworthy of the
kindness of her friends. of the blessings of life,
and finally unfit to live. Miss 14‘. has left a
large circle of friendstolmourn her untimely end,
arid the loss of her suciel_v.. Her amiableuees
won the affectiotts of all her acquaintances,
while her chit-f delight consisted in promoting
their happiness. Her parents have lost :1 daugh-
ter whose sweetness of disposition. and filial
affection they well knew how ‘to esteem. But
they mourn not as those without hope. VVhile
in health, the deceased felt tltercsponsihiltty
resting upon her as an immortal being, and
made her peace with God. A short titne before
her derangctuent, she spoke with much feeling
of the consolatious religion afiorded her in her
sickness, and of the pangs felt by ll')t7SB who put
off repentance to a sick and dying ltour. L. W.

nation among the great mill proprieors irt the
western part of the state of New York. That
they have stopt all the mills to compel the fur-
tuers to lowertlte price of wheat. or keep over
the crops to the next year. Another object is
to prevent a supply reaching New York city,
and thus keep up the prices in the city.

by M r. Laue, the father of M rt-.. Adams, whom

of her senses, is entirely without fitttntlztlltltt ;-—
and however acute may lte her sense of her
loss. she hears it with a becoming resignation
to the Divine will.
The Boston Journal believes that the nomi-

by the abaudonrnent ofJohn Tyler. Why so ?
M r. Tyler is plcdgerl to one term : and the pre.
