You toll me I have yet to love, But though you're wise, I think you miss it So that I may the errr prove, Jut tell mo, lady, "Love what is u"n Is it tnmtthir.g 'm th heart, A rt of shadow of a feeling, Inclining one to sit apart. When twilight over earth is stealing? To muse opnn one lovely face, That teem a part cf every vision, A being of Fupcrior race, A wanderer frem field - Il'ysian? And lira a power each harsher thought And t'very tone of voice to solten, And mukes one sigh, ai 't were for nought' If this be luvo, I've felt it often- I Terhapj you tvould net give the name Of love to such & dream as this is. But mean that deeper, wiidnr flame. That Uads to vows, and tears, and kieses. That mikes young men and women act Io Romco.ar.d-Jul.ot fashion; A monomr.nia. in fact A very desperate, dangerous passion. So warm that il ona's heart were ilrel, I don', say atvlrn it would melt it; If this be what I am to feel, Tu too late, for I once have felt it. And though, if one could spare the hours. It doubtless might be very pleasant; It crowds out writs, bonds, deeds, i powers, And sui'.s which claim ail mine at present. If hive be founded on esteem. With sentiment a little mingled Its object, not a sch ul-boy's dream. But from the crowd by reason (ingld : One by whose gentleness and grace. And lofly mind, best gifts of heaven, A charm to any aarlhly place, Palace or hovel would be given Why what I may do, time will preve, If offered, I may not decline it, But surely, lady, 't is not love; Tiie poets never so dofine it. is only a Mechanic.'1'' How frequently is this remark made by aristocratic upstarts, who have noth ing to recommend them save money and impudence, when the name of a honest and i&telligent mechanic happens to be mentioned in their presence. They consider it degrad- jng to converse, and contaminating v uHUui,iib wan muse wimoo not, ; hke themselves, possess wealth even ' lhugh that wealth was obtained by ne most dishonest and rascally means. Nothing is so disgusting to ell mformed, well bred people, as to near an ignorant, conceited, puffed up, long-haired, brainless, impudent dandv. talt sh,. m,.hr.;,. if : ll,ey are not better than brutes. No rue lady or gentleman would be guil fy of guch littleness. It is only the jgnorent, spoiled beauty the worth less, contemptible soap-lock who would do so. Show us the man or woman who would conceive it a dis place to associate with honeft well 'formed mechanics, and we will show you a poor, worthless, ignorant conceited creature, useless to himself a"d to the world, and a disgrace and nd incumbrance to his friends.

In the course of conversation upon various subjects, principally ag ricultural, we found that he was just returning from our town, whera he had thai day contracted for the sale f 500 bushels ot wheat at 75 cents per hushe-l.

Feathers l einj of but one year's growth, and falling from them, are supplied by a fresh fleece, therefore, when tiie treese are in full feather, let the piumaire be removed close to the skin, with sharp scissors. The pro duce would not be much reduced in jii.mthy whilst the quality would be Lo cally improved, and an indemnifica- tionwdl he experienced, in the ad vantage to the health of the fowl, end he benefit obtained to the sticceed u g croti. Labor also would be sav ed in the dressing, since the quilly portion of the frnthers, whei forci bly detached from the skin, is gener ally in such a state, after all, as to re iitnre the employment of scissors.

On motion of Mr. Crittenden the Senate then went in to executive session. In the Heuse, the following reso lutions o tiered by Mr. Adams and a mentird by Mr. Adams, was passed, the rules having been suspended for the purpose by a vote of 1 19 to 23.

Said resolution relates to the cor respondence with regard to the ses sion of Texas to Spain. The House then resolved itself into Committee of the Whole and took up the tanfT bill, which was debated to th hour ol adjournment by Messrs. Weller, II. unsay, Coilamer, Leonard and Mc Ilvaine. In the Senate, on the 30th, Mr. Fairfield presented the credentials of the Hon. John M. Niles.U. S. Sena tor from Cormcticut, and moved that he be qualified and take bis seat. Mr. Jarnagin referred to the rumors with regard to Mr. Niies' insanity, and suggested the propriety of a com miltee to examine into his qualifica tions. After some debate on the Constitutional potver of ttio Senate to make such an inquiry, at the re quest of Mr. Niles himself, the com mittee was appointed, consisting of Messrs. Jarnagin, Benton, Berrien, Wright and McDuiTie. It was stated that Mr. N. was as sound in mind, as he had ever been, although physi cally debilitated. On motion of Gen.

In the House, a motion was submit ted, proposing to terminate the debate on the tariff bill on Wednesday, May 8; but the House refused to consid er it. The House then resolved itself in to Committe of the Whole, Mr. Hop kins in the chair, and proceeded to the consideration of the bill for the modification of the tarifF. Messrs.
