sustaining the great and fundamental principles of democracy, as taught in the days of Jefferson and Madison, our course will be firm and undeviating opposing in every shape and under all circumstances, encroachments upon the rights of the people or the reserved rights of the States, proceeding from whatever source. Such are our general political principles. We are opposed to consolidation. We are opposed to a central power trammeling, by means of its scattered retainers, the free action of the people, and corrupting the purity of the elective franchise, in tha individual States. Considering the enormous claims set up by the present Chief Magistrate to vest in himself the whole functions of the general nvomnwnt. nnd tl.fi undisguised attempt to

appoint his successor through the abuse of the patronage and power entrusted in his hand, we are alarmed for the safety of our republican institutions. The Journal and

Sentinel, then, will be dcciuca m n uFl tion to the candidate for the succession brought forward under these auspices, and who has publicly announced his intention, if elected, of "treading in the footsteps1' of the present executive, and carrying out "the measures so gloriously begun."

It is his earnest desire to avoid as far as possible, hackneyed extracts from eastern or transatlantic literature, and to bring forward the fruits of western labor, when deemed sufficiently mature, and adapted to the public taste to show that the west is as rich in her stores of literature, as in the natural productions of her unrivaled soil and climate. He will not omit, however, to republish what may be considered of decided interest to hii readers. The Buckeye and Cincinnati Mirror will contain: tales, chiefly founded on western incidents biographical and historical sketches notices of eminent western men essays, on interesting and practical subjects, embracing agriculture and mechanics a glance at the drama literary and critical notices a weekly summary of political and commercial intelligence poetry music. If arrangements can be made with western artists, 'The Buckeye' will be occasionally embellished with a fine engraving. The" subscriber wishes to make no pledge, or promise, which may not bc strictly fulfilled. He docs not hope to advance the very high literary reputation which the Cincinnati Mirror has established but trusts, by increasing exertions, to be enabled to sustain it, and to enhance the beauty of the mechanical department, so as to render it inferior, in appearance, to no eastern publication. Conditions. The Buckeye and Cincinnati Mirror will be issued weekly, in quarto form, on a large superroyal sheet of superior p iper, at three dollars per annum, payable in advance. The paper for a year will make a handsome volume, of four hundred and sixteen large and closely printed pages chiefly original equal to fifteen duodecimo volumes, containing three hundred pages each. The piper will be published and mailed regularly, every Saturday extra copies will be reserved for subscribers who may feel desirous to preserve, or regularly file, and may have lest cr mislaid numbers. JAMES B. MARSHALL. Cincinnati, Oct. 13, 1SJ5. SONG BY THOMAS MOORE. The following beautiful lines are amongst the songs recently published from the still inspired pen of the Irish poet: Calm thy sleep as infant slumbers: Bright as angel thoughts thy dreamsj May each joy the happiest numbers Shed o'er thee their mingled beams! Or if, where Pleasure's wing hath glided, There ever must some pang remain,

Still be my lot with thee divided:

Thine all the bliss, and mine me pain.

Day and night my thoughts shall hover

Round thy steps, where or tnoy suav, As. thou di dark clouds his idol cover,

THE BLEEDING HEART. a Jovl.- lnl Imnrr over the Cedar valley,

UU1IV i.v . 0 - - and a drizzling mist had watered profusely the thick grass around the low painted cot

tage that stood lad among the trees at me foStofthchill. The window that looked down the narrow road towards the village was open, though it was past the hour ot eleven at night, and Mary sat pale and dejected by it. reslin" her cheek upon her hands, and listening with all the deep and anxious expectation of a tender wife, for the approach of her absent husband. De Lancy had not always kept such hours as this he was once fond, affectionate, attentive to her every want and wish, and as cacrful of her happiness as of his own life. When she married him he was gay and cheerful, rich and virtuous, and he had joined her hand in his with the prospect of a long life of connubial bliss full before her. But now his brow wore the aspect of deep and settled gloom he seemed to be himself no more some secret disquietude preyed upon his mind, the springs of which lay concealed from her view. Sometimes she thought he loved her no more-hut the thought almost broke her heart, and she banned it she hoped for the best ; and now waited his return with all the impatience oi wronged, but silent, unrcpining f Aj As midnight approached, the A lightnings began to tlash along f lands and at interval A -J arch toned thunder ro led ac oss of heaven-the cloud d.oped quantities, and Uq tem to the stormy Llad .no pest. She rose a ml cl a Wlat tho edge of the woods,

directly down the road, and a report of a pistol, alarmed her; she threw open the window; all was silent then a faint voice seemed crvin in the wood; she listened, and tho't o '. .... .1

she gathered the sound oi 'murder,7 but tiio thunder rolled again, and the red lightning ilislied angrily and a howling wind rose up and moaned most disma lly among the forest trees. She fastened down the sash; and thiew herself beside her sleeping infant3 on the bed; clasping them closely to her bosom while lier heart beat most violently, and her whole frame trembled with terror. A brief space elapsed, and the hurried tread cf a horse was heard coming up tho road; the gate creaked on its hinges, she heard De Lancy 's voice, "Wo, wo, Bob, let roe get ofF this is bud business, wo are both crazy

wo, wo, Bob, you don't smell thebJood now, Lord how the lightning flashes! there's blood on my arm yet, wo now." The horse was led away to the stable, she heard the door shut, and the key turn, and presently De Lancy rapped at the door. She flew to of en it, and her husband entered with a wild and agitated air, pale and besmeared with mire and blood. "In the name of Heaven," cried Mary; "what is this?'' "Only a trifle, woman, Bob threw me, and my nose bled a little." She feared to interrogate him further, for his milled and morose humor was forbidding; she pressed him to partake of the supper she had kept ready for him, and endeavored to sooth by kindness and attention the gloomy mood in which she found him. He refused to cat, however, and after sitting with his hand clenched some moments on his forehead he rose, took a heavy draught of brandy, and threw himself on the bed." M iry laid down beside him but not to sleep, or if a momentary doze came over her, her waking fancy pictured to her restless and anxious mind the feverish dreams of a disordered brain. She rose as the first glimmering of day broke upon the green valley, and walked out to the spring to" bathe her burning brow in the cool waters of the flowing brook. She had been there but a few moments, when two men came rapidly up the road, and entered the gateway she hastened to tho house and they entered with her, inquiring for Mr. De Lancy, and seeming in too much haste to wait even the common forms of civility. IX Lancy lay still asleep, and when they rudely roused him, and laid their hands upon him, he sprung up in a frenzy. "What, so soon?" cried he, "Why, who told you I killed him?" "It is enough,'1 cried one of them "who asked you to accuse yourself? How come you to know he was killed? Come, wo must search you." De Lancy stood aghast; in the pretuibation of the moment he had betrayed himself he had been taken unprepared, and as they drew from his pockets tho moncv and watch of the murdered man, he trembled excessively. "Ah, the devil has

done lor me at last," said he throwing a wisiful glance at his two infants as they lay smilirgln their infant slumbers on the bed, lockedin each others arms; and then towards his wife, who in agony of despair, at this sudden burst of overwhelming misfortune on herself and children, and of ignominy and shame on him who was dear to her as her heart's blood, vile and dishonored as he stood before her on that fatal morning, stood pale and fixed as a cold statue by the bedside. "I have ruined )ou all," said he; "but he whom 1 slew, first ruined me: he won a thousand dollars from me last night, I killed him and got my money back, and now my life is forfeited. O, why was I linked with this infernal spirit'. Cam1 -1 i wf Inarm no1 mn :ind ihose whose for-

iin.oii.wi- " - -

tunes were bound up in mine lorever; on m.ary, my poor wife, my dear babes." He raved and "raved, but they hurried him away and

bound his manly arms with a tniCK coru, auu led him between their horses from his beautiful cottage home. They had not gone far before they heard a distracted voice behind them; De Lancy's wife was following, her hair hanging about her shoulders, her feet bare, and her every feature betokening horror or anguish. "Stay a moment, oh stay ! Speak to me, George, oh what will become of your poor wife and children?" The officers only increased their speed, and De Lancy went on with his hands folded, and his brow bent in desperate and silent despair. Poor Mary, after following them more than two miles, turned and went back, crying loudly and bitterly all the way. George's trial and condemnation followed speedilf. He plead guilty . Mary went to see him in jail, but he told her at parting that it would break his heart to see her again. This proved to have been an unnecessary admonition; she had been deserted by all her Wends, amid the crush of ber morning hopes ; e Dined away in her now solitary home, and at last wofound dead in her cottage, with a babe on each arm, early one morning, hVa paSr-by,who was attracted to the house hi the crying of the infants.
