Which wandered 6er each lonely scene,
It brought not back ha brilliancy
It faded still though earth waa green !

The green earth eouU thy thoughts beguile,
But beaten alone those charm restore !
- Tb bright epring came ! the happy bird,
With e,rrol sweet and glancing wing,
Affection's inmost fountain stirred,
Life's dearest boon it could not bring.
Tb bright spring went ! its eweeteat flower.
The earliest pined from earth away ;
Alas ! that in that bboming hour,
The lorm w love should e'er decay.
Oh ! tell me now thod sainted one, "
If dreams rereat thetworld above
If stilt life's weary labor done, (
Thy eoul regards a mortal's love.
For 1 have dreampt thy sleepless eye, .
I Is ever bent upon me here ;

Though wept with many Secret tear.
Oh ! aay shall Heaven's perpetual light,
Dispel the clouds that gather here i

K ALEIG II, JULY 21, 1841.
. THE LOAN BILL.
This bill, it will be seen, en reference to
the Congressional proceeding, ha passed
the House of Rcptesenutivea by a very de
cided majority. There is now no doubt that
the great measures of the Whig "party for
relief and reform, will be triumphantly car
ried. The Whig, therefore, throughout
the country may? give to the wind their
fears, and the Locos need give themselves
do further trouble. "
i r
' E7 Mr. Rives, in his recent speech on
the Bank Bill, shewed by the Journal, that
Mr. Calhoun, in 1814, declared that Con
cress had the power to incorporate a Na
tional Bank in the District of Columbia, and
moved to instruct the Committee of Ways
and Meant " to inquire into the expediency
of establishing a National Bank in the Dis
trict of Columbia.
The Charleston Courier states as a
fact, (shewing conclusively that Mr. Jeffer
son recognized the constitutionality of a U.
States Bank,) - that that gentleman,- while
Piesident of the United States, " signed a
bill establishing a branch of the first United
States Bank at New Orleans." This great
apostle of democracy, s has been shewn by
the National Intelligencer, also declared, in
a conversation with Mr. Uurwell, a member
of Congress from Virginia, in 1 811, that he
' considered ihe constitutionality of a Bank
of the United States ' res adjjticata'rr-'M
siettled I quesUoaf' that it had been sanc
tioned by Congresr, the President, and the
judiciary j and that heMr J,)-waa willing-
to yield his opinions to the arbi'.iament of a
majority of his countrymen."

Th result of thia trial, will undoubtedly be

England-or those who ruleher-h.v. too
much good sens, and discretion to plunge
into a war with this country. Her rulers
know, that in the event of a war, they -will
not have to cope with India and, China ; but
with the descendants of men who have van
quished her in two memorable struggles.
But, if she should determine otherwise, the
conflict will be met here with a spirit and
an energy which will leave no doubt as toils

placing on the records his reasons for dis-

He complains that in the matter of the in
struction by the stockholders to the Direct

or director had incurred legal liabilities to
the Bank, the Board had delegated its pow

complain that although five months have

Whilst the South ha receded, and the
North been barely able to. maintain its own,
the Great West has gone ahead with a hun

future destinies of the Republic. In the
next Congres she will have a greater rep

South, singly ; and by the next Census, in
1850, she wilt exceed tliein hbih combined.
