FRIDAY MORNING, APRIL 15, 1853. SPARE MY HEART FROM GROWING, OLD. Old time, I ask a boon of thee Thou'st stripped my hearth of many a friend, Ta'en half my joys and all my glee Be just for once lomake amend; And, since thy hand must leave its trace, Torn locks to grey, turn blood to cold Do what thou wilt with form and face, But tpare my heart from growing old.v I know thou'st taken from mam- a mind Its dearost wealth, its choicest store, And only lingering left behind O'er wise experience bitter love, 'Tis sad to mark the mind's decay, Feel wit grow dim, and memory pld Take these, old time, fake all away, , But spare 1113-heart from growing old. Give me to live with friendship still, And hope and love till life be o'er " - Let be the first the final chill .j That bids the bosom bound 110 more. That so when I am passed away, . ..

Santa Anna has returned to Mexico at the call of the States and the nobnle. His eloquence, his energy, his abilities for action, in the cabinet or in the field, are universally known. He displayed the most extraordinary energies in the late war. Without resources, except what Jns mm. . ' own genius might create, lie raised two armies one to meet Taylor at 13uena Vista,-at a vast dis tance and without supplies, and in snite of till the umicuiues 01 tne march; a month after that defeat, he had another anny.in the field to meet Gen.

The Banner, lately so lame'in defence, now occu pies a reversed position. It has fixed its lance, and with a furious yell rushes at the new administration jinpn .the .most -trivial provocations. -It. evinces a disposition to be as violent in assaulfas it was weak in defence. It cannot, however, succeed to this extent. It is "a willing soul," but its stock of raw material to operate upon is smalL Never, in fact, was an Opposition in a more deplorable condition than the Banner and its friends now are. They are forced to confess judgment upon the great measures that have hitherto divided parties. They dare not, as yet, attack the policy of the administration a3 laid down in the Inaugural. They are, therefore, compelled to attack the administration upon its ap pointments to office, and from being opponents up on principle, wbo -were entitled to. respect, they have sunk to the level of .mere captious grumblers. -While they occupy this guerrillo position, Ve shall treat them as leniently as possible. hang and quar ter them only occasionally but never extend to them tliat admiration in conflict and generous sym pathy in defeat which belongs, of right only to the true -Knight, wfio lights with an earnest spirit and- in a gQOd cause. The Banner will yet learn that the captious Spirit it now betrays will be a stumbling block to it in the end. Like the boy in the -fable, it is now vociferously crying out "wolf, wolf," when there is no wolf ; and if, perchance, hereafter, there should be- good cause for it to give, the alarm, it3 admonitions will fall meaningless upon the public ear. - A moment's reflection will show how disingenu ous and . unreasonable are the objections made to the President's appointments. He has, since his inauguration, made several hundred important ap pointments, and perhaps as many more inferior ones. Uut of this large number, a few not more than a baker's dozen are selected for special ani mad.version. The many appointments to which no objection can be framed, are passed over in silence The administration receives no credit for having made them. The most unexceptionable cannot draw from its factious opponents a generous ap proval. They keep an account with it upon which mv.. iou wumisiuu. uuai, cannot, m tneir esti mation, be "debited" is cast into the pool of obli- u hatever can form the basis of a charge is appointments, it is pursuing a wise and conciliatory policy, remember that that policy is designed to cement the union of the democratic party, and,, as a consequence, the union of these States. The men who harp about the appointments of disunion ists and free soilers to office, would, if they had the power, entrust the Fugitive Slave law to the tender mercies of Seward and his allies. They are ani mated by no patriotic feelings, and little care, so. -thatfthey "break : down' the 'democratic "party-and build up their own, ' what calamities they bring upon their country, We appeal to every lover of his country to weigh well the objects and motives of these men. Judge them by -what they have done, and not by their newborn love of the Union or their hypocritical horror-ot free-soilers and dis unionists, of whom their party at the north is full. CSTWe have received a pamphlet copy of the address of Jonx A AIcEwek, Esq., delivered at the laying of the corner stone of the University of Nashville. Of the address itself, we have already spoken.. It is an eloquent production, abounding in elevated sentiments and judicious reflections, and every way worthy of its talented author.

' I have information that, since the Mexican ports "wore opened, a considerable amount of revenue has accumulated, and that it will be paid over to the Government when Santa Anna shall become its head. Even this sum will be of some importance to her. If he should adopt, at once, the principles of free trade, his treasury will not lack resources. There is no disposition on the part of this coun try, or of any country, to embarrass him in the dis charge of his difficult tisk; and, on the contrary, he will have the good wishes of all.

Turkey and Russia. The Paris correspondent of the Republic says: The difficulties at Constantinople are of the most exciung ii not threatening character. The last news lrom there the sailing of the British and French fleots to counteract the manoeuvre of the Russian squadron the extraordinary demand of tiin unmv of Nicholas, and the certainty that if he docs not Yvmiuraw his ultimatum a disturbance of the peace f . ui .u.uupu is inevuauie, nave caused an immense sensation, and great fluttering at the Bourse. The position taken by the Emperor Nicholas, that he must be allowed to feel a deep interest in the Chris tians of European Turkey (the Bosnians, Servians Moldovians, Valachians, &c, who number 12,000 - 000 out of the 15,000,000 of the population ofEuro peati Turkey), is altogether inadmissible. It amounts to the taking of the first step towards wresting from the Sultan all his possessions in Europe. France and England will combine to arrest such a step. The efenfe.betwcon the two great powers is certainly favorable to the maintenance 01 peace. It is so regarded; but the funds fallheav ily, nevertheless. The Pays, in an article which -will be regarded as semi-official, states that- the two governments are determined to co-operate cor dially to prevent the dismemberment of Turkey, and also to prevent her'from becoming so humiliated as to be an easy prey to Uie ambition of any great power at no distant period. , M. tie Girardin, a strongpeaco man, considers the sailing of the two fleets as. a convincing contra diction of the reports lately current upon a contem plated invasion of England by France as a sure guarantee for the maintenance of the staiiCuo ln the East, and as a measure which will compel Russia at once to lower her tone. For the first time perhaps m a year this eccentric writer accords the highest praise to the energyj promptitude, and de termination ol the French government. It unites j. ranee anu England m a good cause, and will make not only Russia but Austria reflect seriously.

But their disingenuous spirit docs not pause hero They resuscitate the past, and strive to open afresh the wounds which the democratic party has, with a commendable patriotism anci success, labored to soothe and heal. That patriotic pledge of union and harmony -which the diflWont rlivIciVmo ri. ,i , ..uiio ui mo utuiu- cratic party made, in the late canvass, upon the al tar ol the compromise, to true patriots has been a source oi rejoicing and congratulation. They have. naueu it as a covenant that, forgetting the dissen sipns of the past, the great democratic party would stand in the future, as one man, upon the platform of the compromise .and the constitution. Not so, however, with the bogus patriots who now form the nucleus of opposition to the new, administration. They can see nothing in this noble pledge but de fiat and disappoinment to themselves. They know that as long as it is adhered to they must remain in a.hopeless minority. Their only hope hangs upon breaking this covenant and again dismembering the democratic party. To accomplish this darling ob ject they are now laboring with unscrupulous en ergy. By attacking a few of the President's ap pointments with prolific pertinacity, they hope to force him into a prescriptive policy among his own supporters, and thus to foment jealousies and heart burnings in the democratic camp. If they can force the President, in his appointments, to ignore the fact that the democratic party is now a unit upon the Baltimore Platform, and consequently to "jieap aU the favors of his administration upon those whose past sentiments have been entirely in harmony with . l.: ' .i. . . ... . t . .. 7 : ins uwii, uieir great oojeoc will be accomplished. Ur if, not succeeding m this design upon the Presi dent, they can induce the masses of the democratic party to believe that disunionists and secessionists are his favorites and the recipients of marks of his approval, the same cherished end will be attained. Dissatisfaction and dissensions will follow crimi nations and recriminations will be produced and finally, that great party which has so signally tri umphed over the b ack cohorts of tho ffnriU nA .n.. . whose present position one of true moral sublimi ty, will-again be divided"and"prostrated. Shall these men succeed in this unhallowedpur- pose? We ask the patriotic of both parties to scan their motives, and say if their hopes shall be crowned with success. Shall the democratic party be pros tratedm this insidious manner? Let us pause to look at the consequences. The maintenance of the compromise and the Union of these. States, in the fearful struggles through which we have lately passed, has been the work of the democratic party. To that party the' compromise measures owe their existence and preservation. When, in Congress, northern whigs stood aloof or voted against them, northern democrats marched up and gave them a hearty support. When the provisions of the fugi tive slave law were denounced by whig journals, and nullified or passed over in silence by whi"- le gislatures, democratic papers maintained their bind ing force, and democratic legislatures endorsed them as necessary to the welfare of the Union. When, at the threshold of the late contest, the two parties met to nominate their candidates and declare their creeds, the democratic party nominated a thor ough compromiseman and fully endorsed the com promise in its platform; -while the whig party nomi nated a man with doubtful sentiments and abolition affinities, and supported liim without requiring a frank avowal of his opinions on the leading issue of the canvass. The origin and past preservation of this adjust ment, then, belorg to the democratic party. Its future maintenance is also a duty which will fall exclusively upon that party. That, the wiiig party has neither the strength or inclination to maintain Boydell's Illustrations. The agent for this magnificent work of Art, will be absent for a few days, having to go to Columbia to supply the "sub scribers of Maury-county. Persons wishing to pos sess themselves of a copy, will be supplied on his return if they will leave their names at Mr. Berry's Bookstore. This is the last opportunity that the admirers of Shakespeare, and the lovers of Art in this city, will ever have to secure a set of these beautiful Illustrations, as the copper plates havo been sold to a large publishing house in London. - TnE CmnsTiAx Advocate.

The late Mrs. Cass was a daughter of Dr. Joseph Spencer, of Connecticut, who removed to Lansingburg, New York, in 177G, at which place she was born,September 27,. 1773. Five years afterwards she removed with her fath er's family to Wood county, Virginia, where she resided until she was married to Gen. Cass in 1806. After a residence of about eight years in Musking um county, Ohio, she came to reside in Michigan, then a territory, over which General Cas had been appointed Governor, in 1815. From that year un til the year 1832 she resided in Detroit, when she left to make her residence at Washington with her husband, who had been appointed Secretary of War, under General Jackson. In the year 183G she accompanied Gen. Cass to Paris, where she resided during the continuance of I113 term as Min ister to France, returning to Detroit somewhat in advance of him in 1841.
