. PUNCH’S_ LETTER. WRITER.-
Frenta mdooergco a -mam, will! an qfer of
‘ Marriage.
rank -nu-. CHIKIYARL‘
My Dear Madam r--Your kind looks-
and cordial words have accompanied me all
the ‘way home. and-=-the truth is. I write this
before going to bed—I shall sleep the more
soundly for having the matter 06' my mind.’
It is true" we have met but once; but we_are
both of us at that rational point of life, when
people know the most value of time ; find as
all ceremony is but an idle waste ofexistence
I beg herewith to offer you my hand, and
with it, though I havebeen married before.
an entire heart. There are hearts, madam,
allow me to say, all the better for keeping;
they become mellower, and more worth a
woman’: acceptance than the crude, unripe
things, too frequently gathered —as children
gather green fruit—to the discomfort ofthose
who obtain them. I have been married to
one wife and know enough of the happiness
of wedlock to wish it to be continucd in._ an-
other. The best complimcnt I can pay 7 to
the dear creature now in heaven, is to seek
another dear creature here on earth. She
was a woman of admirable judgment; and
her portrait--it hangs over my chimney-
piece—smiles down upon me as I write.—
She seems to know my thoughts,and approve
of them. I said madam, she was a woman
of excellent judgment.
My means are tolerably good; more than
sufficient for my widowed state. Of the
truth of this, your solicitor shall have the
most satisfactory proof. I have also heard —
casually heard —that fortune has not, my
dear madam been blind to your deserts, and
hasgawarded you more than enough to keep
the wolf from the door. I rejoice at this, for
whatever might be my disappointment, I
would not entail upon you the inconvenience
of marriage unacconipanied by an agreeable
competence. What is enough for one—it
has been said—is enough for two. But this
is the ignorance of Cupid, who never could
learn figures. Now Hymen—as you must
know, dear tnadam is a better ariihrnetician;
taught as he is by the butcher and bakers-
Love. in a cottage is pretty enough for girls
and boys: but men and women like a larger
mansion, with coach house" and stabling.
You may urge against me that l have in-
cumbrances. By no means. My daughter
having.married a beggar, lias ceased tofhave
any natural claim upon me. If I am civil
to her, it is solely from a certain weakness
of heartthat [cannot wholly conquer; and
something too, moreover, to keep tip appear-
ances-with a ‘meddling world. I have told
her thatshe is never to expect a farthing
frotn me, and I should despise myself not to
be a man of my word.
I have, too a son. but when I tell you that
I have once paid his debts. incurred in his
wild minority, you will allow that except
my blessing and at times. my paternal advice
he can expect nothing more. I know the
duties of a father and will never satisfy the
cravings of a profligate. Nevertheless, he
is my own son, and whatever may be his
need. my blessing and my counsel he shall
never want.
My health,madam has ever been excellent
[have worn like rock. I have heard of
such things as nerves. but believe it my fate
to have been born without any such weak-
nesses. Ispeak thus plainly of essentials,
as you and I madam, are now too wise to
think consumption prctty——to tie ourselves
to ill-health, believing it vastly into-resting.
Ican ride forty miles a day, and take the
hedge with any fellow of five and twenty. I
say I speak ofthese things that you may
know me as I am. Moreover I assure you
[eat with my own teeth, and grow my own
hair. Besides this, I am only two and fifty.
What do you s=iy,’madam .? As for vices
as I am an honest man, I do not think I can
lay any to my charge. I may have my hu-
man weaknt-sses—-such, indeed as I have
touched upon above; but madam, it has ever
been my._study through life to be respectable.
I have the handsomest pew in the church,
and don't owe any man a shilling.
‘Vt-.ll my dear madam, it is getting late,
and I must conclude. I hate to be out of
bed after;eleven-—it is now past twelve.—
Hence vou must perceive how much I am
interestéd in this business. In another ten
. minutes I shall be asleep, and dreaming of
you. May I wake upto find my dream-for
I know what it will be-—-a rcalityl
If our solicitors are mutually satisfied,
will you name the day .7’ I am superstitious
about days. say then, say Thursday week
and believe me your devoted lover till death,
Nicttomis BLACXTIIORN.
P. S. May I see you to morrow .7
The Widow‘: Answer.
Sir:-—Your favor of last night has, I own
surprised me. Whatl after one meeting
and that at a card party. to make such an
offer.’ Well to be sure men are strange
crfiatttresl What, indeed, could you have
seen in my conduct to think I could look
over such boldness ?
As for the rational point of life you speak
of, I must confess I know not when that ex-
actly occurs; do you think it—at least with
women—at two and thirty ; or if not may I
beg to know what age you consider me ?—
Perhaps though, my early and irreparable
loss may have brought a look of premature
age upon me. It is very possible--’-for what
a tnan he was!
As for what you say about hearts, sir. I
know btit little; I only know the one I have
lost. If! did pluck it green, likethe winter
apples in my store rootn, it grew riper and
riper in my care.
You say your wife's portrait smiled
while you wrote. Hi: dear minature is
now before me; I think I see. the tears start-
ing through the ivory as I look upon the
precious features. If he ever could have
frowned, surely he would frown now to
think—but I will not pursue the theme.
As to your means, sir [ am happy to hear
they are sufficicnt. Although [can by no
possibility have an interest in them. never-
theless I myself too well know the blessings
ofcotnpetence not to congratulate you. True
it is I know but little of the ways of money;
am blessed in my solicitors, Messrs. Grip
and Nip. No.—Furnival’s Inn.
You speak of your irtcumbrances; my

In this fleeting life, how stnall and rain

T/ie Nntaralization LawofMoses.-— [Ex-
tract from Professor Wines on the Civil (‘io-
vernment of the Hebrews] I proceed to an
exposition of the Hebrew Constitution in
reference to the admission of foreigners to
the righi of citizvnship. And. if I mistake
not, we shall find it characterized by the
same wise and patriotic forecast which marks
all the other enactments of this admirable
code.
I sympathise. most sincerely. .with an el-
oquent rebuke. administered by a distin-
guished Divine.(Rev. Dr. Bethune, of Phila-
delphia.) but a few weeks ago. in one of the
pulpits of this city. of that mercenary patri-

Let every ship that enters our harbors pour
them in by hundreds upon our soil. The
first civilized men who settled as permanent
residents on this continent, sought. in the
then howling wilderness, among savages
and wild beats. a refuge from tyranny and
oppression; a home where they could bryath
the air of freedom, where they could think
without a master, and above all, where they
could worship God without asking it titled
and purse-proud hierarchy when. or where,
or how. God forbid that civilized and Chris-
tianized America-—Amcri:a. blessed with
free institutions. and embellished with the
trophies of science and religion,-—sbould be
more hard hearted, than America peopled

native country. whose boast it is to be free

But are we. therefore, to permit these‘ for-

precious of a freeman’s franchises, and riiarch

shores .' ‘
In my opinion, our American law makers
might profitably go to school to Moses on
this, as well as several other questions of
public policyl and if they should not carry
the principle of his naturalization law to
the full extent that it did‘, ;it would at least
be instructive to them to contemplate the
procedure of a true patriot and an ablestat-s-
man,---and one, too, under the guidance ofa
divine wisdom. _
Admission to citizenship was denominated
by Moses, ‘entering into the Congregation of
Jehovah.’ He ordained that this should nev-
er take place in the first or second generation.
Some nations. as the Ammonites and Moab-
ites. for particular reasons, were not to be
admitted to the tenth generation, that is nev-
er. But the Edomires, Egyptians, and
probably other nations, could become
lsralitish citizens in be third generation.
That is to say, the grand children of lthose
who immigrated into Judea frotn other
clirnes. could be admitted to the privileges
of natives of the soil. Why this jealously of
foreign influence I The reason is lain.

NOTES ON ABOLITION.
We love not Slavery; we hope and trust
we shall live to see it banishrd from "our
country. and we mean to do what is in our
power to aid that consummation. In doing
this we shall choose our own times and
means, avoidingabuse ‘er denunciation of
slave holder, even though they be weddrd
to the system, and believe it should be for-
tified and perpetuated. If they chose to de-
nonce us for otir conscientious hostility to
their cherished institution, that is their
affair; but if they will hear us. We 6005-
dently expect to convince them that slavery
is. if not a grevious wrong to the slaves, cer-
tainly a curse to the slave-holders, and a
scourge to the cotninunity which cherishes
it--that it is this, and not something else.
which is steadily changing their fertility of
the.South to bartenness, and retarding its
Social nod Industrial progress.
. On this v.-st and profoundedly interesting
subject we should have spoken more fully
and frequently, but for the existence and
balelul influences of'that cause of so many
Catlttmlllt’-3,.ll)€ Abolition party. It is this
which aggravates to absurdity the sensitive.
ness of the slave holding section to any dis-
cussion of or comment on Slavery, either at
the North or the South. We can well re-
member the time when Southern as well as
Northern philanthropists, statesmen. and
journals discussed this subject freely, and
condemned slavery with a freedom and
severity which the South now does. but then
did not, regard as incendiary. It is this
misnamed ‘Liberty’ party which now stops
the ears and closes the gates of the South to
any presentment of the facts and arguments
which should impel to the Emancipation of
the slaves. It is this liberty party which
has wilfully, wickedly given a new lilo-lease
to SI .very in otir country, by opening a new
and vast market to the cupidity of slave-
breeding, and lining with gold the pockets
of the slave-traders. God forgive the igno-
rant and simple many in the ranks of this
party. for they knew not what they did I—
but for the LPaVllIS, and Birneys, and Alvan
Ste.warts—convcnient ‘instruments and ac-
complices of our Catlhouns, McDuffies. and
Pulirs—-thcre tnust be a righteous retribution.-
It is by the Liberty party mainly that our
majorities in the great whig counties are
broken down, while Cortland, Chenango,
Clinton, &.c. are turned against us. Our
friends in the interior, in sections where
Abolition flourishes‘. had no more untiring
or venomous adversaries than the meu~bo-rs of

_about four years of Rev. Josiah M. Graves,

Mr. Goodwin, he pitched in or fell into the
well. His elder brother. eight years old,
immediately hastened home, a distance of
several rods, and informed Mrs. Grnves.—-
She ran as fast as possible, and on arriving
at the well, found him holding on to the
stones. ‘Slie lowered the bucket, and told
him to take hold of it. The courageous lit-

made the attempt. and loosing his hold, sunk
to the Bottom. but on rising again caught
holdof the stoncs. Mrs. Graves then de-
scended the well, but being unable to secure
the little follow to the bucket, was obliged to
ascend to obtain something. This she did,
again descending, succeeded in securing him
to the bucket, and he was drawn up insole-

out. that when he went to the bottom he
found a dipper, but was unable to hold onto

well, and it was about the same distance to

deserving of notice.—-Middletoum Seat.

THE GRAND RESULT.
Although our fate is not irrevokably sealed, and
‘the last ray of hope obliterated, yet there is so little
left us upon vvhichto ground encouragement
that we consider the contest as decided, and admit
the \Vhig party and their noble champion aa defeat-
ed. Pcnnsylvania, New York and Virginia, have
each given their electoral votes to Polk and Dallas.
The first and last of these we could have spared.
and perhaps had little or no reason to expect. Of
New York, however, we did look for a different re-
sult. The issues which were before the people did
leave some reason to expect that abolition would to
some extent curb its insanity, and give sufficient‘ of
its strength to the anti-annexation candidate to
have given us the odds. But it has-resulted other-
wise. Fiften thousand of‘ them, mostly Whigs, to-
gether with the hordes of naturalized and unnatural-
izcd foreigners who generally go with our opponents
have had the effect to give New York to Polk by
4,500 majority. ‘The same influences obtained-tho!
