. ; Party Spirit.
That man must be blind to tho changes
which are insensibly affecting the action of
tho government, who docs not or cannot
8eo that party spirit is hourly weakening
thoso bodies in which reside tho whole
strength ot the government. There was
a period i n our history when" tho Federal
Senate was tho power which held our politi
cal system in a due balance, resisting on
one hand the -tendency to Executive en
croachmcnt, and on tho other the no less
injurious tendency of too precipitate legisla.

: now ? Hero is the government without re
sources, and without credit tho country
without preparation in means cither aggrcs-
6ivo or defensive with entangling - nego
tiations and unadjusted border disputes.
Our rulers negotiating with art empty Trca

tions, an unimproved navy; a defective mi.
H'.ary force, armament and organization
Tho whole civilized world, in fact,7 direct,
ing its intense gazo on the spectacle of a
popular government under thoso peculiar
embarrassments that test its energy and ef
fectiveness. Now, what is the spectacle presented ?
Do we find in that body wherein is sup.
posed to reside the" concentrated vigor of
our legislative councils, mat unity oi ac
tion and harmony of deliberations which
are adapted to tho -emergency? Do we
find the party leaders making any, the
smallest, sacrifico of party ends to the
support of the National name, and public
credit? On the cdntrary, while tho Trea.
sury is empty and the only question
should be, how shall it bo replenished ?
we find sagacious Senators, influential
Politicians, making their votes for the
supplies conditional on tho reduction of
expenditures and the; previous-repcar of
an obnoxious enactment. ....
While the house Is on fire the inquiry rs
not, how it may be most quickly extinguish,
cd, but is directed to tho causes of the con. j
flagration. While the vessel of State is
on the Rocks, the Pilots are Jo dispute as
to by what unskilful navigation she . has
been brought into that critical condition.
Party spirit is fast damaging our name
aoroad, by distracting the public councils,
and bringing the experiment of free gov
ernment to that test which all history shows
is the most trying for popular institutions.
And unless the people mend, their own de
fective work unless they recast or repair
tho machinery of government, the party
shocks by which its action is disordered wil
increase in frequency and intensity. All
that is required is an amendment of tho con
stitution,. lengthening tho term of service of
the Chief Magistracy to six years, not re.

grasp of the members of Congress the
prizes of official power and emolument.

loves the causo you advocate, to hear from
this place. ." ."'.".'
About the middle of last month, an ef
fort was expected to be made in behalf of
Temperance, and it was .accordingly an
' nounced to the citizens that meetings would
be held alternately ia the Methodist and
Presbyterian churches.
, I have belonged to a Temperance Soci
ety for many years, and have always advo
cated tho good causo in tho abstract, but I
must confess that I had not a great deal of
faith in its being the means of liberating the I
worta irom tno tnraiuom 01 arunxenness.
Oa the first night, I did not go out, sup
posing that it was a, subject on which not
much more could be said that 1 should hear
a long rigmarolo of condemnatory epithets
against alcohol, as a ruiner of the health,

erin already. I expected to listen to the
oft repeated story of the onco promising
youth, who, for the lovo of it, broko bis
widowed mother's heartOf tho husband,
who dashed from him the devotion of her
whom he had promised at the ultar to
cherish forever, and drowned all that he
once called love, in tho bachanalian cup.
Of the father who drank while his pale rag-
ged children wept for bread. These, and
other such tales of truth, I expected to hear j
but as I had heard them often before, I cared
not for arcpclilioh,so I staid at home. The
next day there was much talk on the subject
and I then for tho first time became aware
that the gentlemen from Sullivan county
who addressed the meeting were my ac
quaintance, and that two of them were re
formed drunkards. A new motive now
impelled me, and I wertf to the second und
third meetings, and I believe that my full
gratification did not exceed that of each in
dividual of the crowded assembly.
It is probbalo that you have already re
ceived a full account of this, from your
friends" here; and that my thus intruding, is
unnecessary, as my feeble testimony my be
worth something, I givo it, and leave to
yout-discretioa to -muka wlntujse of-it yuj

although plain men, and not ' accus-
tomed to speak in public, yet by tho mere

great deal ot interest. 1 his last men-
tioned, andoneofthe Rheas, woro, by their
own conlcssion, rctormcd drunkards.
They could tell their 'experience '.un" the
subject, and they did so in a manner to
brinji tears to many eyes. They looked
ike men who had escaped from some city of

It was my misfortune to witness, and net
as Foreman of an Inquest, called together
in this immodtato vicinity, on Monday-eve
ning lust. 1 will give you but a brief nar.
rativc. The subject, a Mr. Ligon, of high
and rcspcclaTro family, long uddictcd to
this practice, (whoso parent, have died
many years since,) had liecu on a visit
below Spring Grove, (I met him, say
11 o'clock on Monday morning, sober, a
rare fact,) he, Ligon, a short time after
wards met with a lover of the jug, who di
rected him where he might find the jug, sonic
one hundred yards from tho road -covered
up with leaves. Shortly after this, a North
Carolina waon passed and found Llguri in
the road, near where tho iu was. The
North Carolinian knew Ligon, and he (Li.
gony)taid to his friend, " I wish you had
a jug." Why," said tho North CarolL-
nian. " I would fill it for you," was the
rej.ly of the unfortunate deceased Ligon.

that he, Campbell, ever drunk or showed

The North Caro!iniinuindjJiodeejsciiJ

PROSPECTUS
OK THE ' '
AMERICAN EDITION OF THE
Dublin University magazine. '
THE increased attention paid to the cultivation
of a Britibh Periodical Literature, may be re.
gardod as among the prominent characteristics of
the present ago. An entirely new class of writors,
including sonic of tho finest intellects that coun.
try has produced, have, In somo Innlnncom, don
honour to its pages, and thus a corrcsponging do
vation has been givon to tho standard of the popu
lur taste.
Among the distinguished Periodicals of the day,
none may be said to tako a higher range in tho
fields of elegant literature, than the M Dublin Uwi.
veRs7rTTrAGA2rNE.n Cliaracterii!cd7ts its Paget
huvo ever been, by a delightful raciucst of rich
Irish humour, und' deep and powerful pathos, and .
'cTuiiiiTiig "WTu-! contributors), some of the most
distinguished writers of Great Britain, this talent,
cd work has ever maintained a proud position
umongst its cotemporuries; while irom the dawn
of its commencement it has been constantly hi.
creasing in tho populur estimation down 'to the
present time. In confirmation of our assertion,
it is only necessary to refer to those thrilling inci
dents ol H-jod and hold, under tho titles of "Chart
V Mallet" und " Harry LarrfjMer.both of which
originally graced the pages of this periodical the
most populur, with the exception of Box's works,
perhaps, of all that hove ever issued from the p-
ripJicul press. Sparkling with humour, and teem
ing, as these admirable sketches do, with incidents
ot such intense and glowing interest, in their per
usal wo positively becomo ourselves participator
in the scenes nurratcd. It would be needless,
uowever, lor us to epcuu ol tue merits of an -au
thor with whom tho public universally are to fa
vorubly acquainted, were it not for tho annoucc.
ment of a now work from the pen of the tame de-
ligir
h, which is Jo avvtar tn
huh magazine, and whicli wiu be commenced
immediately after tho completion of tbe series of
" Charles O' Malley," now in courte of publica
tion. Another, and a scarcely loss favourite writer,
the legcnd.loving Lover, whose admirable produc
tions have so deservedly earned for him an undy.
nig reputation, may aljo bo named as among the
contributors to this populur periodical ; to whom
wo may further add tho name of William Carle,
ton, a man of singular ability and skill, and vna
who is assuredly destined to tako rank among th
nrosT gifted ilieOTrcoutTrryTius produced. A a
writer of elegant fiction, ho is perhaps unequaled
in purity and profoundly of pathos, and exquisita
grace and delicacy of sentiment.
Another attractive feature of this work con
tints in its onthly Gallery of Portraits, of char,
tcis eminent in literature, science, theology, law,
medicine, and politics, connected with Ireland, to
whirl) nrn appendod-a-turiet of Biognrphicat Mt
moirs, &c. In the American Edition of tbe Dub.
tin University ogazinc, these admirably-eharac.
tcristic etchings will ba given: with ull their life
like freshness and original spirit.
The Dublin Univeruily a-rastine Is to Ireland
wnat uiacHwoou is to ftcollanti; and from thit
causa alone, portraying, as it does, Irish life and -manners,
and Irish modes of thinking in all tbofr
genuine realily, it may resonably be expected to
onlibt the sympathies of a numerous class of rea
ders, including all those who appreciate the in
imituhlc wit and rollicking fim that it' indigenous:
Ou'.d I, eland. This, however, is not tho ouly
feature of tho work , it is characterized by th
same power and cogency iu the discussion of ila
political ethics, which have rendered its able co
temporary bo deservedly distinguished; and liow.
ever some may differ as to the o!iticaI creed of
the articles in question, we cunuot but award bur
unqualified approbation to the wonderful talent by
which they are .uportcd.
Originating under the Immediate influence and
auspices of the Univorsit of Dublin, this period!,
cal has acquired for itself the characteristics of
Nationality to an extent which, under lea favor
able circumstances, such aworkcotiM scarcely

popularity and success to he ascribed, as to the in
trinsic excellence or genuine I run talent and ge.

beauty of style, that ia equally attrnctiv ta th
