Its'" Judge Halliburton, the originnl ''S'ii Slick,''
has been amusing the people on the other side of tho
water with some very ra e sketches in the Dublin
University Magazine. As thef llowing extract is
peculiarly applicable to the present " cr sis," nnd
may serve to rub oil" some of the rough edges of
party feeling engendered during the recent politic
al contest, we transfer it to eur columns, with the
hope that our readers will duly appreciate its mer
its. Read it it is n pood thing "bouum ovum.'1
Always ;i Cry-sis.
Whi rover you go, people say the country is go
ing to the duvil. Well, 1 have heard that cry to
home, long before I saw ICn jlund, and yet wo l'O
ahead, in spile of such critters; we can't help
proKperin,' The only difference between the two
countries is, us I have said, people in Kngland
think they are going to the had place all the time ;
wo only think so once in (our years. I shall n v.
er forget what uncle I'ehg said to mo. once ;
" ISopli," said he, ' I used to take great interest
in politics once, but I have given it up now. It
don't matter a cent, I can see who is up or who is
down. There ain't much to chooso ninoing our
political parties, pelf, pickings and pntroimge,

for I'rcsulyiit, fur we were u lor John An) ins.
It was eleven o'clock at night when this news came.
We were all excited, drinking success to . , ains
und confusion to Jefferson, glory to the jiation,
prosperity to religion, perdition to free thinkers,
inildels and southern candidates, with other.' patri
otic tons' 81 when in rushed Dcncun l'operjohn, his
eyes staring six ways lor Sunday, his iiuir blown'
about like a head of broom corn, and his breath
almost cone. ' Hullo," sais I, " Deacon l'opcrj il n,
what is the matter with yon ?'' ' Why," s ays ho,
striking the table n blov with his list that nndo
all the glasses jingle nguin, ' I'll be din ned if that
old unbelieving Kilmer, Thomas JcH'crs-on, haint
brut Adams by 11 majority of one!" and lie burst
into tears. " Our gn at, nation is ruinati d, found
ered, swamped, irid cone for forever." There
waMit a word sreike for the matter of two minutes,
we were so dumbfounded. At last we all gave lip
togeiln r. ' Oh, iii-acii;iis !" said one, ' better we
had never fought unci bled.'1 " IMfer,'' said nnoih
er, " if we had never resisted the ISritii.li. Only
think of tl.nl unprincipled mini being elected over
such a true patriot as Adams!" nnd then we all
agreed the country was undone forever. Then we
consoled ourselves with drinking pi edition to Jef
ferson, and sat up a howl, in chorus, over old Huy
Slate, that took the lend, and bore tho brunt of
the revolution, being chiseled nut of its President
iu th'S way. At hist I fainted, as if I bad been
kno'ked down, and was carried home by four men
and put to bed.
' Are you sure you wa3u't drunk, uncle,"
sais 1.
" Quite certain," Raid he; " 1 might hi.ve been
overtaken I won't say wasn't overcome like, for
a very little will do that you know, when you are

nation, it is quite time that wc should remember1
in whom our fathers trusted, and turn our hearts
and our prayers to that God whom we profoss t'l
worship, and in whom alone is our help. Tha
glorious old "40th Psalm" is worth moru than a
thousand political homilies;
"The Lord is nur refig' nnd strength, a very

" Thereiore will not we li ar though tho earth
tie removed, and though the mountain!! bo curried
into the nAlst of the sen.
" Though the wub rs thereof roar, anil be trou
bled ; though the mountains shake with the swels
liiu thereof."
Permit me to ask that you will publish the fol
lowing most excellent suggestion, which I was
really delighted to llnd in one of the papers of the
2i!d inst. If this suggestion shall becaTicd out
by tlie (Jovcrners ai I tho people of tho Southern
States in its proper spirit we need not have ono
moment's fear but thitt our perils will be over, nod
our national peace and prosperity shall be as a
broad ami deep river. ( Jod bless the mull Pint firt
made und published this sucgestion ; and lie will
bless the nation, or the man that honors Kim.
The liingunge of the ho?y scripture is, " Blessed
j is the niun that trustctli in the Lord, nod whose
