 GENTLKMEN: The moment having arri- we'd. tn which am about to lay down the trust with which you have hOnOred me. and the connections which have existed between ns are to cease, I should do violence to the feelings which now warm my heart, It did not seize this occasion to express my deep sense of gratitude, fer your past confidence and kindness, and the Aattering proof just given, of your continued appreciation and favor.

 Two years have elapsed, since | had the honor of being placed in this Char. Fms period of service has been distinguished ny eUents and circumstances well calculated to render this station, not only one Of extreme delicacy, but severe responsibility and labor. Steady and lasting applause permanent and solid reputation; can only be acquired in station so exalted, by an undertaking adher- enee to elevated principles, and by manly, upright, and independent discharge Of it's high and important functions. Under the lnHu- ence of these principles and just difiidence in my own q,laIifcations,I came to this chair with settled determination to pursue that course which should secure to me the testi- mony of my own ,niad, and the appreciation of every just and hberal man. That my ef- forts have not been wholly unavailing. am this day assured by the renewed evidence of the kindness and justice of the House. re- ceive it in the same spirit of kindness in which it has been offered, and shall cherish it through life. with feelings of profound re- spec. and the deepest gratitude.

 If, gentlemen, in the discharge of our mnl- tifariOus duties, if, amid the storms and strife of passion or of party; if under the influence of momentary excitement. or irritation. any thing unxnd should have been said or done. let us, entreat you, endeavor to forget and forgive it. and let our separation, with many of us long, and with some of us fOrever,) be in the spirit uf peace and good will. and as becomes the Representatives of sirtuOus and enlightened freemen.

 You will carry with you. gentlemen, my prayers for continued blessings upon cur be- loved country, and my beat wishes for your health, prosperity, and happiness.

 Ii remains for me only to announce that this House stands adjourned sine die.

 P Will not some of the following remarks apply t0 some other states as well as New Hampshire

 Although the people of New Hampshire ale noble race of men, they are, as a peo- pie. completely governed, yea, completely cypherised by few political managers and editors. These men can. at any time, elect whom they please to Congress. Eighteen nominators, and two editors in the county of Rockingham. could command, for most any person, and for a high and responsible sta ton, the votes throughOut'th the state. Twen- ty dictators have made, and do still undertake tO make tools of forty thousand freemen.- Who can wonder if the whole state should be covered with the leprosy of intrigue, and corruption! The people are answerable for these things. Like Sampson, they have suf- fered themselves to bound, and shOrn. and to have their eyes put out Our elections are no more free than slaves are free when they do the work Oftheir masters!'' -#ua[

 OLE ClDER-C1DER BRANDY. A corres- pondent denounces, in good set terms," the hahitual use of strong cider, and argues that it is one of the most Fruitful scOurces of in temperance. To all which We heartily sub scribe. New England rnm-vile and inAam- matoiy as it isis preferable to this raw, deadening, brutalizing drink. We should want throat of copper. and an iron stomach, to swallow either, day after day. We recol- lect, when the temperance meeting was held in Julien Hall, Boston, early last spring, af- ter Dr. Warren had denounced the use and depicted the insidiOusness of wine, the Rev. Mr. Piel pOnt rose up and entered his protest against old cider. It was done with sinceri- ty, and we hope with effect. He certainly our unqualified assent. Oh! your gHzzlers, who will swallow pint or quart of this villainOus beverage at a sitting, and yet affect to mourn oyerthe ravages of intem hut cucumbers of the ground the worst exemplars in the cause of sobriety.
