often the case, that amid the excitement. party, men will desire the press to emit the ebulitions oflhcir bitterness and personal antip- thv. A refusal to do this, often subjects the editor to and to the oppo.ition of unthinking and ignorant zealots, who imagine that the province of the press is violence, and not persuasion. tint how anon would the press ai.d the party it nndprtakes to advocate, be shorn their strength if the language oLfools and madmen were adopted in tne place oi ine wotua judgement, reflection and discrimination. If parties, it is desirable to preserve the influ-ence of the conrsc and vulgar, as well as of the rr 1 refined and polite, even this is better enecieu oy vatliai.

than an dieniheU anu argumcni.aiic, abusive course. As in the animal structure me tail always follow, th head, so in parties, the of the camp must follow the lead of the officers. Th. i however, different where the vul gar occasionally att.inpts to bear sway, and to pervert the course of nature. Where, by some cunning arrangement ot the traps, a nomination is sometime, procured which is repugnant to the better judgement of a party, a general revolt is the consequence.

This has, in a flagrant given a whig Mayor to New York, where the strict party rule would have elected an antagonist, and will in every instance, endanger the success of a party. The lime has come when the ability of candidates will always be scanned, and it becomes the electors nnd those who choose for them, to be careful of this criteiion. Once a party nomination covered every defect. Now the people will look behind this, and claim the sovereign power of the veto, if competent selections are nut made. The Democratic party could once prevail by regular nominations, and by force, of party tucticj.

The Whigs can never prevail, except by judicious and capable selections. Constitutional Amendments. Self-government and the sovereignty of the people, mean vastly more than the mere power, possessed in a republic of legislation and con-etitulion making. Great as are the blessings ot our glorious constitution, it owes all its worth to this, that it presents the form and presence of that great and noble public sentimint which, at ihe time of its adoption more or less definitely filled the minds of all men in the country. In the main, it was passed by common consent, and such should be the we fetl for it.

provisions, thnt in von-esientiah, even improvement ought to be considered more than counterbalanced by the risk, lest our love and respect might thus in some mea.nre be lessened. In e-tentiah, a long eouneof national prosperity ha. assured us, it needs no alteration. Let ns hope that party feeling will unite to spare its venerable structure from all innovation. The resolution passed by the legislature of Wisconsin, urging on their representatives the advocacy of an amendment in reference to the mode of elect-ing the member of the LT.

Mat. Making. It is a curious fact, and one interesting to the philosophical looker-on at husband-hunting, thnt unmarried ladies derive much more assistance from ihe counsels and instruction of mothers and other female relations, than they ever do from their lamer, or maie connections. Woman's disposition and nature are inclined to intrigue; and the skill, maneuvers. adroitness, which have become useless to them-selves, are yet not permitted to be laid up and row rusty, but ore brought by kind-hearted matrons to Ihe assistance and suport of their un married relations.

The father has generally the business, the pecuniary interests, and the government of the family to attend to; while the mother finds an ample field for employment in the edifying occupation of superintending the progress of her spinster daughters toward the dazzling regions ol a "goal matcn. i ne moin-er then, is the natural ally of the daughter in matrimonial projecls, while papa's functions in that department are generally confined to paying the dear girl's Jot," or inquiting, with laudable and parental solicitude, as to ihe satisfactory footing on which the intenueu" stanos ai ina bankers.
