troublesome disease, recommended to him bv b

The election of ihe next autumn must involve, in general, the same principles, and the same questions, as belonged to that of 1910.

the cause of good government, true liberty, and

THE FALL OF EMPIRES GOD IS IN HISTORY. The ruins of kingdoms! The relics of mighty empires thai were! The overthrow or decay of the master works of man is, of all objects that can enter tho mind, the most afflicting. The high wrought perfections of beauty and art seem born but lo perish, and decay is seen and fell lo be nn inherent law of their being. But such is the nature of man, that even while gazing upon the relics of unknown nations, which have survived all history, he forgets his own perishable nation in the spectacle of enduring greatness.
we know of no spectacle so well calculated to
tench man humiliation, and convince us of the
utler fragility of the proudest monuments, of arl,
as Ihe relics which remind us of vast popula
tions thu have passed from tho earth, and empires that have crumbled into ruins. We read upon their ruins of the past the fate of the pre ent. We feell as if all the cities of men were built on foundations beneath which the earthquake lept; and thai we abide in the midst of the same doom which has already so much of tho records of mortal magnificence. Under such emotions look on all human power as foundationless, and view the proudest nations of the present as covered only with the mass of their desolation. The Assyrian Empire was once alike the terror and wonder of ihe world, and Babylon was perhaps never surpassed in power and gorgeous magnificence. Bui where is there even a relic of Babvlon now, save on the faithful pages of Holy Writ. The very placo of its existence is n matter of uncertainty and dispute. Alas! that the measures of time should be doomed to oblivi
on; and that those who divided the year into months, and invented the zodiac itself should partake so sparingly of immortality as to be, in Ihe lapse of a few centuries, confounded with the natural phenomena of mountain and valley. Who can certainly show us the sito of the Tower that was "reared against heaven?" Who were the builders of ihe Pyramids that have excited so much of the astonishment of modern nations? Where is Rome, the irresistible monarch of ihe east, the terror of tho world? Where are the proud edifices of her glory, the fame of which
has reached even our lime, in classic vividness?
Alas! she too has fsded awav in sins and vices
Time has swept his unsparing scythe over her
glories, and shorn this prince of cities of its tow ring diadems. 4Her lonely columns stand sublime, Flinging their shadows from mi high, Like dials, which the wizard Time Has raited to count his ages by."
Throughout the range of our western wilds, down into Mexico, Yucatan, Bolivia, &c, travel
lers have been able lo discover the most indispu labia evidences of extinct races of men highly skilled in learning and the arts, of whom we have no earthly record, save the remains of their wonderful works which time has spared for our contemplation. On the very spot where forests riae in unbroken grandeur, and seem to have been explored only by their natural inhabitants generation after generation has stood, has lived, ha warred, grown old and passed away, and not ontbeir names, but their nation, their language, has perished, and utter oblivion has closed over their once populous abodes. Who shall unravel to as the magnificent ruins of Mexico, Yucatan and Bolivia, over which hangs the sublimesl mystery, and which seem to have been antiquities in the day of Pharaoh? Who were the builders of those gorgeous temples, obelisks and palaces, now

A Miss, Miss-kissed.
Tho Washington Standard relates an amusing
incident to this effect. A friend of the editor
was expecting his mother in the evening- cars
from Baltimore, and like a good son repaired to
me depot to meet her. It was a dark day, end by the time the cars arrived there was no such thing as distinguishing the faces of passengers. As he entered one of the cars, a lady seated in a corner addressed him ns "Father," the voice was his mother's-, and the tide one which she al ways gave him while at his house, and among his children so, without hesitation, ho threw
his arms around the lady's neck and kissed her. Just then a gentleman pushed him gently aside, and went through the same ceremony . This was
very strange, he thought a man kissing his mother! Hardly had the thought passed his mind when his veritable mother came forward and
kissed him. Very much embarrassed, he turned to the gentleman, and said, "Sir, I have made n most egregious blunder, but whoso pardon shall 1 ask, yours or the lady's?" The meek reply was, "thee had better ask the lady, though 1 don't know which had the best end of the bargain, thee, or my daughler."
Ortolans. Perhaps the greatest refinement in fattening is exhibited in the manner of feeding ortolans. The ortolan is a small bird, esteemed a great delicacy by Italians. It is the fat of this bird which is so delicious, but il has a peculiar habit of feed i n which is opposed to its rapid fattening this is, that il feeds only at
tne rising ol tne sun; yet this peculiarity has not proved an insurmountable obstacle lo the
Italian gourmands. The ortolans are placed in a warm chamber, perfecly dark, with only one aperlure in the wall. Their food is scattered over the floor of their chamber. At a certain hour in the morning the keeper of the birds places a lantern ou the floor of tho apartment, induces the ortolans to believe that the sun is about to rise, and they greedily consume the food upon thofljor. More food is now scattered over it, and the lantern is withdrawn. The ortolan", rather surprised at the shortness of the day,) think it their duty to fall asleep, as night has spread its sable mantle around them. During sleep little!
of their food being expended in the production of force, most of it goes to the formation of muscle and fat. After they have been allowed to repose fir one or two hours, in order lo complete the di gestion of the food taken, tbeir keeper again exhibits the lantern through the aperture. The rising sun a second time illuminates the apartment, and the birds awaken from their slumber, apply themselves voraciously to the food on the floor, after having discussed which they are again enveloped in darkness. Thus the sun is made to shed its rays into tbe chamber four or five times every day, and as many nights follow its transitory beams. The ortolans thus treated become like little balls of fat in a few days.

hope the Whig party will never return thanks for curses and the arbitrary deprivation of legislative r.gh.s. The Whig, will never flatter Ihe band which oppresses thtm. Perhaps the rerainisence of other days, 1Q which the venerable idol of the locofoco party, was an actor may be of some service to these horrified partizans. By a reference to the Journals of Congress it will be seen that when GEN. WASHINGTON was about retiring from the Presidency of the United Slates, it was proposed in Congress to transmit him a rote of thanks, in testimony of the high respect which the co or ' dinato deportments of the government entertained fbr his zealous and patriotic public Services, three distinguished members of Congress voted against the proposition Andrew Jackson of Tennessee, Edward Leviogston of New York and W. B. Giles of Vtrgiuia. Mr. Livingston, was et one time Secretary of State under Gen. Jackson, and was to the day of his death a member cf the Jackson parly. Does the reader suppose there was any cause for such an act of diecourtesy in the conduct of Gen. Washington, as to justify the Hero of New Orleans in thus voting against the man who wo have been taught to regard as the saviour of our country. Are the Whigs of this day to be denounced for refusing an act of courtesy lo Jesse D. Bright, at the expense of honor, rights, and independence, and Gen. Jackson applauded for the infamy of refusing tho same act of courlesy to Gen. Washington? Answer us that ye time-serving sycophants! Poland's Fork Canal.

ject of Slavery. We have nol room in our sheet
for the Advocate's reply, and we think the editor of that paper asks of us a little too much when he intimates a desire to have us publish it The Palladium is devoted to Ihe dissemination of certain principles which the editors deem of high
importance to the welfare of the country; and necessarily to the exposition of the means and measures resorted to by all parties whose object it is to defeat the success of those principles. The avowed object of the Advocate is to oppose the principles of the Whig parly, and to prevent the election of Whigs to office. We do not

Even under our present "oppressive," "black," "abominable TarifT," as tbe Journal of Commerce calls it, the amount of duties levied upon all imports is only about $23,000,003; while upon our exports, which but slightly exceed our im
ports, and which are chiefly articles of prime necessity to the rest of the world, and csn be got only of us, other nations impose a duly of a bout $130,000,000. When other nations show the same liberality that we do, il will be lime to talk about free trade."
The Public Lands. Tbe sales of public lands for the late calendar year amounted la 1.C30.674 acres, yielding more than two millions of dollars

Mr. Wise is poor, in bad health, had lowered his crest infinitely, and his father-in-law is esteemed, and has manifested
great delicacy on the subject. These considerations weighed much.
