MttHs |)ocfr*i, is IT O0BEB : Tbe following is the poem that attracted the attention of the Marquis of Lansdowne. and inaitt- ced him to mcke a present of one hundred pounds tothe authoress, Miss FranceE Brown.—Edinburgh Ladies' Own. Is it come? tbey said on the bank! of tlio Nile, Who looked for the world's own promised day, Ami saw but the strife of Egypt's toil With the desert's saad and the granitegrey. From tht pyramid, temple and treasured dead We vainly ask lor her wisdom's plan | They tell ef ths slave nnd tyrants dread— Yet there was hope when that day began. The Childee came with his starry lore, That built up Babylon'* crown and creed ; And bricks were stamped on the Tigris' shore With signs which our sages Bearce can read. From Ninus* Temple and N'imi" d's Tniwer The rule of the old East's empire spread Vat lasoninn laitb and nnquestloned power- But still, is it come ? the watcher said, The light of the Persian's worshipped flame The and nt bondage its splendor threw; And once on the Wa-st n .sunrise came, Wh'Ti Greece to her "freedom's trust was true, With dreams to the utmost ages dear, "With human gods and with podlike men, No marvel the far-off day seemed near To eyes that looked through her laurels then. The Koreans conquered and reveled, loo. Till honor una! faith ami power were gone; And deeper old Europe's darkness grew As wave after wave the Colli came on, The gown was learning, the sword was law, The people served in the oxen's .-tend ; But ever.-ome gleam the watcher saw. And evermore, is it come? ihey said. Fort and Seer that question oanght; And abore the alia of life's fears and frets, It marched with letters—it tolled with thought Through schools and creeds which the earth forgetii, And statesmen trills and pri eats deceive, An! traders barter our world away ; Yet hearts to that golden promise cleave, Aud still, at times, is it come ? they say. The days of the naf ion bear no trace Of all the sunshine so far foretold ; The cannon speaks in Ihe teacher's place— The age in weary with work end gold : And higher hopes"wither and me'.noiie* wane— On hearths and altars the fires are dead ; But that brarc faith hath not lived in vain ; And this is all that our watcher said, ■■1 Hi ■— — I L 0*jV IU T H ial WIG II T. BT & P. Mo;?r.i;>. I love the nipht when the moon streams bright On Sowers that drink (he dew- When cascades shout as tbe stars peep out, From bonodleea fields of blue ; But dearer far than noon or star. Or flowers of gaudy hue, Or merry trills of mountain rill?, I love, I love, love—you ! I lore ta stray tit the cIofc of day, Through groves of linden trees, When music floats, In warbled notes, And incense loads the breeze.

I love, love— j ou 1 J No Gloom at HoMaV-Above all things, there :<-hoa!d be 00 gloom Id the home. The shadows of dark discontent and wasting fretfulness, #wuld never eroffl the threshold, throwing their larva black shapes Ilk,? funeral palls, over the happy young spirits gathered there. If you will, your home shall be heaven, and every inmate an ange! there. If you will, you shall sit on a throne and be the presiding household dlety. Oh! faithful wife. Wbat privileges, what treasures greater or purer than thine? And let the husband strive to forget his cares. he winds around the long narrow street, and beholds thai soft light illumining his little parlor. spreading Its precious beams on the red pave before it. He has been harrassed, perplexed, persecuted. He has borne with man} a cruel tone, many a cold word, and nerved himself up to au energy so desperate, that his frame and spirits are weakened and depressed. And now his limbs ache with weariness; bis temples throb with the pain- heat caused by too constant application. He scarcely knows how to meet his wife with a pleasant smile, or sit down cheerfully to their little meal, which she has provided with so much care, But the door is opened—the overcoat thrown hastily off. A sweet, singing voice falls upon his ear, and the tones are so soft and glad that Hope like a winged angel, flies right into his bosom aud nestles against his heart. A home where gloom is banished—presided over ly one who has learned to rule her household. Oh ! he is thrice cousolcd for all hi3 trials. He cannot be unhappy. That sweetest, best, dearest solacelsbis—a cheerful home. Do you wonder that the man is strength. ened anew for to-morrow's cares? Htsttlhntoti*"-. Currnn's Ingenuity. A farmer attending a fair with a hundred pound' in his pocket, took the precaution of depositing ii in the hands of the landlord of the public house at which he stopped. Having occasion (or il shortly a.tcrward, be resorted to mine host for payment. But the landlord, too deep for the countryman, wondered what he meant, and Was quite sure no such sum had ever been lodged in bis hands by the astonished rustic. After Ineffectual appeals to the reconciliation, and finally to the honor, of Bardolph, the farmer applied to Curran lor advice. '■Have patience, my friend," said Curran; " speak to the landlord civilly—tell him you have left your money with some other person. Take a friend with you, and lodge with him another hundred in the presence of your friend ; then come to me." " ne immediately did eo, and returned to his lejjal friend. " And now I can't see how I am to be the better off for this, if I get my second hundred back again. What is now to be done?"' " Go and ask him for it when he is alone." " Ayas, sir, Baking will not do, I am afraid Without my witness at any rate." " Never mind, take my advice," said the counsel ; ' do as I bid you. and return to me." " The farmer returned with liis hundred, glad to have lhat again safe ;n his possession. " Now, sir, I must be content; bat I don't sec as I am much better off." "Well," said the counsel, "sow take your friend with you, and ask the landlord for the huu dred pounds your fricud saw you leave with Lim." " We need not add the wily landlord found he had beeu taken ofl bis guard, while our honest friend returned to thank bis counsel, exultingly with both hundreds in his pocket." Facts ABOOT Scandat, Moxgkiis.—In every community is a class of people whose only object in life seems to be to defame and injure those around ihem. Generally persons of small mind and low origin, they seek to drag others down because their own merits will not suffice to give them a credita. ble position in society. It has been our lot to meet wilh several of thia class, and we have made their frailty a study ; but we confess no philosophy will account for their caprices. One person. for Instance, goes back into the past, and resurrects all the old stories of family shortcoming**, of HOOial dissensions "what was once said," and a. sad array is thrown in the teeth of some excellent man or woman os old sins which they are expected to bear, lu consequence, the whole neighborhood is busy with these eld aud most usually false tales of scandal antl gossip, nnd the tale-bearer has the satisfaction of seeing really worthy people in much pain and trouble from the unexpected imputations made against them. But here is the mystery : that very tale-bea''cr has a past of the most unen viable repute—her family were of the most' scaly ' kind of people, and lived such a life as does not usually look well in print ; and why a person of such descent should indirectly excite attention to her own affairs and her not-forgotten past, by her : reiival of ancient scandal, is, it strikes UB, puzzling to tell. It has-served to quicken our suspicions that all scandal mongers have a family escutcheon not particularly pure ; and we have come to the conclusion that he or she whose tongue- s busy with reputations and family happiness i just the person whoso past ought to be Bbrouded ■n darkness. II a decent respect for ihe feeling? >t the living and dead will not prevent the ezhu nation of that wliich time had buried and grow:: iver with flowers, let the busybody think she ir- thus lowered in the estimation of worthy people, nd be silent Irom fear.— Sandusky Registry.

A Fra*xk Admission.—The Louisville Courier an old line Whig paper in Kentucky, while advocating the re-organization ofthe Whig party very frankly says: "We do not, for a moment, suppose that the •tvhigs can have a hope for their own success in the next campaign. We believe that it is written in the book of fate that the democracy will sweep the whole country at the Presidential election in November next. We do not entertain the shadow of a doubt but they will carry Kentucky by a sweeping majoiity. Would it not be much better, then. ior those Whigs who have principle, and not Belf interest, in view, to support their own men and measures, especially when they know lhat in so doing they more certainly secure ihe present buc- cess of the Democracy, which they regard as so necessary 1' Tiik Spirit ok the Lobd's Prayer.—The spirit ofthe Lord's Prayer is beautiful. That form of petition breathes a filial spirit—"Father." A catholic spirit—" Our Father " A reverential sprit—" Hallowed be thy name.'1 A missionary spirit—" Thy kingdom come." A obedient spirit-—" Thy will be done on earth A dependent spirit—"Give us this day our daily bread." A forgiving spirit—" And forgive our trespasses, as we forgive those that trespass agfiiust o?..v A cautious spirit—" Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil."

StisttUaimms. Preventing an Bt«pem«nt. A writer in the Democratic Quarterly Review, iu sketching life at Baden-Baden, records the following incident : A noble Hungarian lord, Count Christian W had come to pass the season at Baden, aooowpani. ed byh:s daughter Helen. Young, beautiful. charming, and beirens to an immense fortune left her by her mother, the young Countess soou found herself surrounded by a host of admirers. Ador en of all kinds were not wanting—rich and poor, noble and obscure, tender and passionate, grav« and gay. It was a pt?rpetual tournament, ol which she was the queen, and where the aspirants contended for her hand by exhibiting their address- grace, and seductive qualities. When she entered her carriage, tea cavaliers were in the saddle caracoling around her r.aleche. At the ball, the most elegant dancers were dev .ted to her. They had neither cares, attentions, nor eight, but for her; whereat many beautiful Wttmea—French, English and Russian—were particularly mortified. Among these pressing suitors Helen selected the most worthless. The Chevalier Gaetan M——wm> it Is true, a charming fellow, pule and delicate. with fine-blue eyes, aad long black wary hair. J the place of true passion he had eloquence of Look and word; in short, he dressed With last*, danoed marvellously, and Bang like Itubiui. Bat, unhappily, these advantages weie contrasted by greal vices. A diasipated gambler, and unprhu'ip;;:,!. the Chevalier Gaetan hid quitted Naples in con sequence of some scandalous adventures in wbich lie had been implicated. The Count, after having informed himself ol these facts, desired, but too late, to pat his daughter on her guard against a dangerous ailection. Helen listened neither to the advice, the prayers, nor tho orders oflier father. The man for whom he endeavored to destroy her esteem was already master of h-.r heart, and Bhe obstinately refused to believe in the disgraceful antecedents of the young Italian. If Gactun had had to do with a father who laofesd energy, perhaps be would have become the happy busiiri.nl of the young Ccuntess, and the peaceiul p i the immense fortune with which lie was so frantically in love. But the Count knew how to carry his point, either by management or force, lie was au old lion. He had preserved all the vigor ol youth, and all the rude firmness of au hia'i,mi'able charaoter, which nothing bat paternal teoderaeu had ever softened. Sell-willed in his resolutions, stern in his exe uiion of them, he owl about tor means to put hots oJu combat this carpet knight, who had dared to undertake to become his Bon-tn- law in spite of him, when accident threw into his hands a letter wh'ob Ga it in hud written to Beleo. The Chevalier, impatie _ toaajtalo the goal of bis desires, proposed in dlraacl lenus to tbe young Countess an elopem ■nt, and proposed a clandestine meeting at the hour when the Count was in the habit of going out lo play whist will; BOOM itfutlemou of hii ac.piaiotauee at l'.e Gonveisation Bouse, A ro*e placed in Helen's belt wm to be the signal of consent. The young girl had not read the adroitly Intercepted note. ■■ Put Hale Bowet in your belt," said thi? Count to her, offering a rose, " and come with e." Helen smilingly obeyed, and took her father's arm. In the course of their walk, they nr-i Gaetan, who, seeing ihe rose, was overjoyed. Then the Count c nducted his daughter to the residence of one mt their acquaintances, and requested her to wait until he came fbr her. That done, be returned to the little house in trhioh he lived, at the outskirts of Baden, on tho Llchten- thal road. He sent away bis servants, and was alone. At the appointed hour G-ietan arrived at tin* rendezvous, leaped lightly over the wall of the garden, and, (lading the door shut, entered the house through one of tlie low windows. Then mounting the stairs, filled with pleasing emotions, he directed his steps towards the apartment. of Helen. There, instead of tlie daughter, he found the father, armed wit1] a brace of pistols. The Count closed the door, and laid to the wretched Gaetan, trembling with terror: ■■ I could kill you ; I have the right to do so. You have entered my house at night. You have broken iuto it. I could treat you as a Felon ; nothing could hj more natural." " But, sir," replied Gaetau, almost inaudibly, " I am not a robber." " And what are you, thou ? Yon have come to steal my daughter—to steal an heiress—to steal a fortune. Haare is your letter, which unveiled to me your criminal intentions. I shall show youno mercy! But to take your life, I had no need of this trap. You know the skill of niy right arm : a duel would long ago rid me of you. To avoid scandal, I did not wish a duel, aud bow I will slay you only at the last extremity, if you refuse to obey me." " What is your will, eir?" ■• Ton mast leave Baden, not in a few days, uot to-morrow, hut "this very instant. Yon mu t pat two hundred leagues between it and yoa, and never again come into tiie presence ol my daughter or myselt A* the price of your obedience, and to pay your travelling expenses, I will give you twenty thousand francs." The Chevalier wished to speak. '■Not a word!-'' crlftd the Ooant, in a votofl of thunder. '■ You know wie, understood 1 I hold your lite at my mercy, and a moment's hesitation will be punished with death." " I obey," stammered the Chevalier. " Iu good time ! Your twenty thousand francs are in that secretary; take them." " Permit me to decline your oiler." An imperious gesture over the false modesty which tiie Chevalier "^pressed feebly, and like a man n ho declines for form's sake. '■Bat," said he. ''the secretary is locked." " Opeu it." '■ There is no key in it." " Break the lock, then.-'-' '' What! yon wish me to ?" " Break the lock, or I'll shoot you." The pistol was again presented, as an argument which admitted no reply. Gaetan obeyed. '■ It is will" Bald the Count. " Take that package of bank notes; t ay are yours. Ihve vuu s poeket- look ?" - Xes." '■ What does it coiiaiu V " Some papers—letters addressed to me." " Let your pocket-book fall iu front of the secretary you have broken open." ■■ What!" '■ I must have proof which will convict you." " But " '■ But, sir. 1 mean to have all tlie evidences ofa burglary. I mean that the robber shall be known. Robber, or death I Choose.' Ah! your choice is made. I was sure you would be reasonable. Now you are about to fly, i'ou will go before me.. 1 do uot quit you until you area league from Baden. For the rest, make yourself easy. I will return late, and will enter no complaint until to-morrow. You may easily escape pursuit, and If my protec- tioc b-.; -omes necessary, reckon o.i tne. BegoneI" Afterthisadvanture, which madaaj great noise, Helen could no long** doubt. Gaetan was baulsh- ed from her heart, and she married one of ber cousins, captain in a regiment nf cavalry in the service ot the Emperor of Austria.

It was a miserable OVedfcgj very dark, very muddy, and raining hard. There are many woful sights iu that part of London, and it has beeu well known to me in mout of its aspects for many years. Wo had forgotten the mud and rain in slowly walking ftioog and looking about us, when we found ourselves, af 8 o'clock, before the workhouse. Crouched against the wall of tbe w»rkhouse, in the dark Mre-u. qq the muddy pave* meut-stones, wilh the rain raining upon lli.-m, were five bundles of rags. They were motionless, and had no resemblance to the human form. Five great bee-hives covered with rags—five dead bodies takaa out of grave****, tied neck and heals and covered with rags—would have looked like those lire bundles upon which the rain rained down in the public struct. " What \* this?" said my cowpmioi*.; " wdiat is this?" " Soma miserable people shut out of the casual ward, I think," said I. (Mr. Dickens then describes hii inquiries in (he workhouse. Ho found that t ie women were shut out simply because the home was full.) Wo weut to the rugged bundle nearest the workhouse da»or, and touched it. No movement replying, I gently shook it. The rags began to be gently stirred within, and by Utile and little a head was unshrouded—the head of a young woman of three or four aud twenty, as I should judge, gaunt wilh want and loul with dirt, but not naturally ugly- Tell na," Said I, stooping down, " why are you lying hero?" '* Because I can't get iuto the workhouse." She spoke in a faint, dull way, and had no curiosity or interest left, She looked dreamily at the black sky and tbe falling tain, but never looked at me or my companion. '■ Were you h 're last night V '■ Yes ; all last night, and tho night afore, too." " Do you know any of these others ?" "I know her next but one; she was here last nii'lit, and she told ine »he come out of Essex.. I don't know uo more of her." " You were hure all last night, but you have not been here all day?" "No—aot all day." '•' Where have you been all day ?" " About the streets." " What Slave you hud to eat ?" h Kothing." '■ Come," said J, " think a little. You are tired, and have been asleep, and do not quite consider what you have b ien saying to on, You have had something to eat to day? Come! think of it." - No, I haven't; nothing but such bits as I could pick up aboit the market. Why. lookatmel" She bared hot Lock, and I covered it up again," '■ If you had a shilling to get some Bapparand a lodging, should you know where to gat it?" ■' Yes. 1 could do that." " ;■ or God'a Bake get it then." I put the money Into her hand, and she feebly rose and went away. She never thanked me, never looked at me, melted away into the miserable night, in the sirangest manner I ever saw. I hare seen many Strange thlngl, but not one that has left a deeper impression ani my memory than the dull impassive way in which that worn-out heap of misery look that piece uf money and was lost. One by ono I spoke to all the five. In every one, interest ami curiosity were as extinct as iu Ihe first. They were all dull aud languid. No one made any sort of profession or complaint; no one cared to look at me; no one thanked me.— When I came to the third, I suppose she saw that my companion and I glanced, with a new horror upon ns, at the last two, who had dropped against each other in their sleep, and were lying like broken images. She said she believed tbey were young sisters. These were the only words that were originated among the five. BBTTEB okt 'km First.—About thirty-fire years ago there resided in the town of Hebron n certain Dr. T , who became very much enamored ofa beautiful young lady, resident in tlie same town- The Doctor was a strong Presbyterian aud his lady-love was a decided Baptist. They were silting together one evening, talking of their approaching nuptials, when the Doctor remarked : " I am thinking, my dear, of two events which I shall number among the happiest of my life." " And what may they he, doctor," remarked the huly. " One is the hour when I shall call you ; wife' for tlie lir.st time." " And the other." " It is wdieu we shall present our first-born for baptism." " What, sprinkled ?" " Yes, my dear, sprinkled." "Never shall a child of mine be sprinkled." " Bui mine shall." " They shall be, hey?"

We grow happy at the thought ; the contemplation ii delightful, the prospect is reircshing." And again : :aV' Like the remembrance of an attack of tho cholera, or the yellow fever, or the small pox, tt is almost a pleasure to look back upon the dangers now past and gone. True, we may be, and generally are, dreadfully emaciated, horribly tann- ed, or awfully pock-marked, but what of that: .¥• Banff the fresh air, clasp our bands, hold up our head?, and thank God that va aro still alive. The bleeding, purging, and reti-hing, lancet"*, cathartics and emetics, have spent their force lu vain.'' Tha Democratic.prof's has never said so much as this. The Idea of likening a Know Nothing Legislature to that loathsome disease, the smalt pox,' "Caxton" very propeily asks what the Legislature has alone for the State in return for the quarter of a million dollars expended in the payment of members and attaches, aud for tho million dollars which have been expended in ap- pria tions. Tlm Know Nothings are a rare old party. Currying Dt-nilly Wtupon*. There is no practice in the community so disgraceful, and more indicative of rank cowardice, than lhat of carrying deadly weapons in the ordinary pursuits of life. A man lhat doee this either intends lo insult some one, or fears that., tf attacked, he will not be able to bear himself as a man with the weapons that the Cod of nature has given him. Many ofthe bloody scenes which havo disgraced Ibis city would never have occurred,had it not been for this almost universal custom of having about the person either a knife, dirk or pistol. A hasty word, if not resented on the spot by the thrust of* knife, would In many cases havo been withdrawn or apologized for—a violent altercation would frequently have been compromh- ed by lbe " sober second thought," or ihe interference of friends, were it not that the dirk or pistol has been thrust into the dispute, and made one party a victim aud the other a candialate for tha gallows or penitentiary. The law of the duello, although a relic ol a barbarous age, is far inoro respectable, because in its operation it contemplates a period ol reflection and apology, anal eon- sequeiiUy lessens the ag^re^ate of those whoconio violently to their deaths, We have beeu led to these remarks by a scaio we witnessed yesterday iu the neighborhood of the Custom House. Patting a saloon we heard loud words, as though in altercation,and stepping in, found two men in violent dispute—one a well known character in election times, and Ihe othera former Stale official. The lie wiw given to tha latter, which he returned with a blow of the hand —when immediately the former drew a dirk, and bad he aot been seised by the waist by a bystander, he would have thrust it into the heart of his opponent. The latter stepped back, provided himself wilh a pistol, and seemed resolved to de- feud his life at every hazard. Some considertito persons forthwith dragged off the man wilh tho dirk—and so the scene ended. With a little less promptness M tbe part of the peace makers, wo ihould have bad a second edition of the Cora trtgftdy, thus easting another stigma upon this community. We trust our authorities will look a littlemoro earnestly to this practice, and make a summary example of the offenders, By so doing tln-y will save lbe eity anal county credit and reputation, and relieve us lo a vast amount in a pecuniary point Of view.— 8.

MttHs |)ocfr*i,
is IT O0BEB :
Tbe following is the poem that attracted the
attention of the Marquis of Lansdowne. and inaitt-
ced him to mcke a present of one hundred pounds
tothe authoress, Miss FranceE Brown.—Edinburgh
Ladies' Own.
Is it come? tbey said on the bank! of tlio Nile,
Who looked for the world's own promised day,
Ami saw but the strife of Egypt's toil
With the desert's saad and the granitegrey.
From tht pyramid, temple and treasured dead
We vainly ask lor her wisdom's plan |
They tell ef ths slave nnd tyrants dread—
Yet there was hope when that day began.
The Childee came with his starry lore,
That built up Babylon'* crown and creed ;
And bricks were stamped on the Tigris' shore
With signs which our sages Bearce can read.
From Ninus* Temple and N'imi" d's Tniwer
The rule of the old East's empire spread
Vat lasoninn laitb and nnquestloned power-
But still, is it come ? the watcher said,
The light of the Persian's worshipped flame
The and nt bondage its splendor threw;
And once on the Wa-st n .sunrise came,
Wh'Ti Greece to her "freedom's trust was true,
With dreams to the utmost ages dear,
"With human gods and with podlike men,
No marvel the far-off day seemed near
To eyes that looked through her laurels then.
The Koreans conquered and reveled, loo.
Till honor una! faith ami power were gone;
And deeper old Europe's darkness grew
As wave after wave the Colli came on,
The gown was learning, the sword was law,
The people served in the oxen's .-tend ;
But ever.-ome gleam the watcher saw.
And evermore, is it come? ihey said.
Fort and Seer that question oanght;
And abore the alia of life's fears and frets,
It marched with letters—it tolled with thought
Through schools and creeds which the earth
forgetii,
And statesmen trills and pri eats deceive,
An! traders barter our world away ;
Yet hearts to that golden promise cleave,
Aud still, at times, is it come ? they say.
The days of the naf ion bear no trace
Of all the sunshine so far foretold ;
The cannon speaks in Ihe teacher's place—
The age in weary with work end gold :
And higher hopes"wither and me'.noiie* wane—
On hearths and altars the fires are dead ;
But that brarc faith hath not lived in vain ;
And this is all that our watcher said,
■■1 Hi ■— —

I love the nipht when the moon streams bright
On Sowers that drink (he dew-
When cascades shout as tbe stars peep out,
From bonodleea fields of blue ;
But dearer far than noon or star.
Or flowers of gaudy hue,
Or merry trills of mountain rill?,
I love, I love, love—you !
I lore ta stray tit the cIofc of day,
Through groves of linden trees,
When music floats, In warbled notes,
And incense loads the breeze.
Hove tha- night—the glorious night—
When hearts beat warm nnd true ;
But far above the night, I love,
I love. I love, love— j ou 1

dark discontent and wasting fretfulness, #wuld
never eroffl the threshold, throwing their larva

young spirits gathered there. If you will, your
home shall be heaven, and every inmate an ange!

many a cold word, and nerved himself up to au
energy so desperate, that his frame and spirits are
weakened and depressed. And now his limbs ache
with weariness; bis temples throb with the pain-
heat caused by too constant application. He
scarcely knows how to meet his wife with a pleasant smile, or sit down cheerfully to their little
meal, which she has provided with so much care,
But the door is opened—the overcoat thrown
hastily off. A sweet, singing voice falls upon his
ear, and the tones are so soft and glad that Hope
like a winged angel, flies right into his bosom aud
nestles against his heart.

Currnn's Ingenuity.
A farmer attending a fair with a hundred pound'
in his pocket, took the precaution of depositing ii
in the hands of the landlord of the public house
at which he stopped. Having occasion (or il
shortly a.tcrward, be resorted to mine host for
payment. But the landlord, too deep for the
countryman, wondered what he meant, and Was
quite sure no such sum had ever been lodged in
bis hands by the astonished rustic. After Ineffectual appeals to the reconciliation, and finally to
the honor, of Bardolph, the farmer applied to
Curran lor advice.
'■Have patience, my friend," said Curran;
" speak to the landlord civilly—tell him you have
left your money with some other person. Take a
friend with you, and lodge with him another hundred in the presence of your friend ; then come to
me."
" ne immediately did eo, and returned to his
lejjal friend.
" And now I can't see how I am to be the better
off for this, if I get my second hundred back
again. What is now to be done?"'
" Go and ask him for it when he is alone."
" Ayas, sir, Baking will not do, I am afraid
Without my witness at any rate."
" Never mind, take my advice," said the counsel ; ' do as I bid you. and return to me."
" The farmer returned with liis hundred, glad
to have lhat again safe ;n his possession.
" Now, sir, I must be content; bat I don't sec
as I am much better off."
"Well," said the counsel, "sow take your
friend with you, and ask the landlord for the huu
dred pounds your fricud saw you leave with
Lim."
" We need not add the wily landlord found he
had beeu taken ofl bis guard, while our honest
friend returned to thank bis counsel, exultingly
with both hundreds in his pocket."
Facts ABOOT Scandat, Moxgkiis.—In every community is a class of people whose only object in
life seems to be to defame and injure those around
ihem. Generally persons of small mind and low
origin, they seek to drag others down because their
own merits will not suffice to give them a credita.
ble position in society. It has been our lot to
meet wilh several of thia class, and we have made
their frailty a study ; but we confess no philosophy will account for their caprices. One person.
for Instance, goes back into the past, and resurrects all the old stories of family shortcoming**, of
HOOial dissensions "what was once said," and a.
sad array is thrown in the teeth of some excellent
man or woman os old sins which they are expected
to bear, lu consequence, the whole neighborhood
is busy with these eld aud most usually false tales
of scandal antl gossip, nnd the tale-bearer has the
satisfaction of seeing really worthy people in much
pain and trouble from the unexpected imputations
made against them. But here is the mystery :
that very tale-bea''cr has a past of the most unen
viable repute—her family were of the most' scaly '
kind of people, and lived such a life as does not
usually look well in print ; and why a person of
such descent should indirectly excite attention to
her own affairs and her not-forgotten past, by her
: reiival of ancient scandal, is, it strikes UB, puzzling to tell. It has-served to quicken our suspicions that all scandal mongers have a family
escutcheon not particularly pure ; and we have
come to the conclusion that he or she whose tongue-
s busy with reputations and family happiness i
just the person whoso past ought to be Bbrouded
■n darkness. II a decent respect for ihe feeling?
>t the living and dead will not prevent the ezhu
nation of that wliich time had buried and grow::
iver with flowers, let the busybody think she ir-
thus lowered in the estimation of worthy people,

AGoopHit.—We arc told of an instance that
ccurrrd recently, in which the lawyers presented
themselves fo a Judge *t Special Term, iii Chambers, armed with 9. to.midable array of books ana.
documents, and had hardly opened Iheir case.
probably pome question of costs more interesting
lo themselves tian their clients, when Judge Whiting interposed the question :
' What is the amount in controversy, gentlemen ?"
Two dollars, may it please Your Honor," was
tbe reply.
Well," said the Judge, faking out his pocket
book, and handing over that sum, " I will pay it.
Call the next case, Mr. Clerk."
If Fiicli a disposition to dispatch business were
uniformly manifested by all parties in Court, we
should ca?ase to bear complaints of law's delay.

A Fra*xk Admission.—The Louisville Courier
an old line Whig paper in Kentucky, while advocating the re-organization ofthe Whig party very
frankly says:
"We do not, for a moment, suppose that the
•tvhigs can have a hope for their own success in the
next campaign. We believe that it is written in
the book of fate that the democracy will sweep
the whole country at the Presidential election in
November next. We do not entertain the shadow
of a doubt but they will carry Kentucky by a sweeping majoiity. Would it not be much better, then.
ior those Whigs who have principle, and not Belf
interest, in view, to support their own men and
measures, especially when they know lhat in so
doing they more certainly secure ihe present buc-
cess of the Democracy, which they regard as so
necessary 1'
Tiik Spirit ok the Lobd's Prayer.—The spirit
ofthe Lord's Prayer is beautiful. That form of
petition breathes a filial spirit—"Father."
A catholic spirit—" Our Father "
A reverential sprit—" Hallowed be thy name.'1
A missionary spirit—" Thy kingdom come."
A obedient spirit-—" Thy will be done on earth
A dependent spirit—"Give us this day our daily
bread."
A forgiving spirit—" And forgive our trespasses, as we forgive those that trespass agfiiust o?..v
A cautious spirit—" Lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil."
A confidential and adoring spirit—"For thine
is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.'"
