THE MISSING BRACELET- " No, Walter, there can be no donl>t .ibout her gailt. I am positive tbut I }mi\ the brace¬ let with my other jewels on my dressing- table; none of tbe Servants come iulo my room except Rntb, and the braoelet is gone." " Well, it does look suspicious, I confess Annette ; but lbe girl bas as honest a face as I eversaWjAud sbe is devoted to yoa, I don't like to believtj tbat sbe could do such a thing." " You can't think tbink I am willing to be¬ lieve it I am forced to. You know I shall miss Ruth sadiy, but I think I know my dnty to, myself and otber servants to well to allow a theif to remain iu lbe bouse," " Well, I can only say, don't do anything rashly. It would be a aerions thing to aend a yonng girl out into the world with such a taint npon ber character. Good morning, my dear." Mrs. Ma}-bnrj- stood by her dressing-table meditating several minutes after her husband had left her; and tben, witb moalh and eyes settled to a cold slerimess. sbe rang tbe ball, and seated berself to await tbe answer tn her enmmoua. Mrs. Mabury was not hard-haart- ed, but like too many, surrounded by tbe re¬ finements and safeguards of a bappy and ele gant home sbe had no pyuijiatby for tbose wbo, exiH)5ed to so many and great lempt.itiona, sometime:^ are overtiome; an.i she bad little of tbat cb.irity "wbioh tbinketb no evil."— Rntb soon made ber appearance, and stood waiting ber mistress's commands. "Did you ring for me, ma'm i"' "Yes, I rang for yoc," aud the cold eyes were fixed, iu a searching gaze, upon the girl's fdce, Sbe retumed it an iustant, wonderingly, and then her eyes fell, and a faiut flush mounted to her forehead. " I see you cannot bear my scrntiny. Guilt is ever cowardly." *' Gnilt 1 wbat can yon mean, Mra. Maburyf" eiolaimed Rntb, ina startled tone, " Yonr downcast look told too plainly that yoa know what I mean. Y'on will do WoU to lay aside all hypocrisy now, for it will not av^l." "Oh, what have I done? indeed you are mistaken. I am iunocent; " and Rath passed her hand wildly over ber eyes, as if to rouse heraelf from a painful dream. Something like pity and misgiving stole into Mrs. Mabnry'a beart. Uigbt ebe not be mistaken, after all, and Ruth be innocent ? No, there were tbe circumstances, aod tbey were all against her. "Ruth, can you acconnt for tbe sndden disap¬ pearance of a bracelet from my dressing tablf, withont bands ? I retnrn late from a party, and leave my dress aud jewels, as usnal, for yoa to put in their places in the moming. As usual, uo one enters my room except yourself, and so far as I know, all is right. In the afternoon you lell me that yonr mother is worse, your brother has come for yon, and I give yon leave to go to her. In lhe evening I open my drawer, the key of which I have had in my possession since you went ont, look for the bracelet, and lo ! it is gone!" Sbe paused and Rntb atood pale, trembling and tearless. She almost believed heraelf guilly, the evi¬ dence was eo strong, and only ejacniated hope¬ lessly, *'I did not take it." " Rntb, I am sorry for you, and if yon will retnrn tbe bracelet, I will keep you, on trial as a lower servant. Of coarse, I conld not trast yon as I have done. Willyou do it?" "I cannot," she gasped ; " I have not got it —I never bad it—I did not see it with tbe other thinge." " Mrs. Mabury's face grew oold aud bard again. "Well, then, yoa must go, and I must think of yon, wbom I have trusted au"! befriended, aa hardened aud ungrateful. Here ia the money that is due you, and I bope you will not go on from bad to worae. Good-by." Ruth's hand opened and closed on the mon¬ ey, and abe tarned and left the room withont a word. Mechanically she went up alaira aud gathered her scanty wardrohe, tied ou her rnaty black bonnet, wrapped her thin sbawl abont her, and slood on the siduwalk, all with¬ out auy real consciousness of wbal sbe waa do¬ ing. The coid, damp air, sent a cbill throngh ber frame, and then the qu^dtion came, where should ahe go ? Kot bome to ber motber; 0, no, not to ber siek motber, with such a har¬ den of misery and disgrace. She would be¬ lieve in her innocence, but the paiu wonld kill ber. Bnt wbat conld she do ? Sbe sat down on a slep—uot of tbe bouae sbe bad left, bnt of oue near by—to recover her stun¬ ned senses, aud to consider. Mr*, Chapman —ahe had been verv kind lo Ruth's inotbwr and always had a kiud word for Rntb, when she aaw her at Mrs. Mabury's. Sbe mti*/ do somethiug—sbe wonld goto Mrs. Chapman ; perhapa aha woutd believe ber innocent. Sbe got up from her seat and made \wr way to ¦ street, aud rang tbe bell at ahandsome fonr-story, brown-front bouse, aud soon stood in the preseuce of Mrs, Cb.ipman. "Why. Ruth, wbat is tbu matter? yon look as if you oonld not stand. Sit down, child, and tell we your errand. Is Mrs. Mabury ill ?'» " I bave left there—have beeu seut away," Ruth said, witb difBculty. " You have been sent away.Ruth, forwhat pray I It must be Bometbing very aerions that would make Mrs, Mabury part with you." And tben slowly, and amid sobs and tears, which bnrst forth for tbe first time. Roth told her story. Mra. Chapman listened, in wonder and pity, moved almost to tears by the poor girl's diatresa, and moved almost to say, "Rnth I believe you are innocent. I will give yoa a home." But tbat would not do. Mra. Mabnry was a lady whose frieadahip she prized too highly, to risk losing it by taking under her wing one whom she had pronounced nnwor¬ thy, and who, after all, might be really guilty. So her kindness and sympathy spent them¬ aelves in words, and Rath went forth into the Btreet more ntterly desolate than ever, bat atill ihrinking from the idea of going hom« to pAin htr mother with her tale of woe; though and how she grew almost fatnt with dread. " No ma'am, I have none.'* " Uow ia that?" asked the lady, looking at Rath with snrprise, as she noted the qnicken¬ ed breath, and the oolor oome and go. " Did you leave of your own ohoioe ?" "No ma'am." " Yoa were sent away f" " Yes." " Where did yoa live ?" '* At Mrs. Jlabury'a, No. street," answered Ruth, with a ohoking voice, feeling much aa if she were signing her own death- warrant. " Ah, I know Mrs. Mabury slightly. It is strange," she said, " with such a faoe. What can have been the tronble ? I am sorry you bave no reference; I think I shonld like yon, but I ought not to take any one for the chil¬ dren wbo is not well reoommended," and she turned away. Ruth turned too, and as qnickly as her trem¬ bling limba, wonld allow, left the office. "Oh, mother, mother," waa the cry of her torn heart, and withoat a thought of maldng any farther effort, she bent her steps toward " home." A very lowly home it was, a aingle room in a tenement house; bat it contained Ruth's motber and little brotber, her only earthly friends. Her mother had a Heavenly Friend, i\h03e grace was sufficient for her nt" moat need, and it waa great. She had lost her husband, a comfortable, though bumble home, and had sulTered from sickness aud want. But her faith had not failed; aud she believed tbat her Friend wonld, in His own time and way, lead her ohild, her eanbly snpport, to trustin his care as she did. Was it thus, throagh such a fiery trial, that her prayers were to be answered, she thought, as Ruth, having told her griefs, lay sobbing by her mother's side. "Only give her strength, and let her love the Giver, and then, " Thy will be done.* " "Itlawellwe cannot see What the end shall be," Ruth's mother had reason to bless the loving hand which drew a veil between her and the sad fntnre. She had prayed with heart-felt tmst, " Tby will be done," while that " will'' was biden from ber view, aud was led gently on, step by atep, till "theend" came, and found her still able to breathe tbose words of submission. Throagh long days and nights the molher herself ill, kept her anxious, watch by tbe bedside of her child, as she tossed with fever and pain, and raved wildly of gnilt, diagrace, and all the events of that terrible day. Atiast the fever apent itself, and then came days of quiet consciousness when Ruth could listen to tbe soft tones of her mother's voice, as abe told ber, in simple language, ofa Saviour's love ofhis willing¬ ness to receive her in her ntter weakness when ahe could do nothing bat oommit her¬ self to him. With childlike faith she rested npon bim and peacefully fell asleep, to awaken in her glorious home, where no suspicion of gailt conld assail her pure spirit, aud no sad¬ ness mingle with the joyous strains of her ever swelling song. "By the way, Mrs. Mabury," Mrs. Chap¬ man aaid to her dear friend, during a morning call, "did you ever flud ont anything about the bracelet wbich Ruth—which yon thongbt Ruth stole ?" " Oh, she did not steal it, my dear. I never was so aorry for anything in my life, as that I sent her away. The very next time I wore my Magenta moire-antique—^yon know I wore that to Mrs. Ciark'a soiree—I fonnd tbe brace¬ let in tbe pocket I I remembered nothing abont it, but I suppose it became unclaaped in a dance, and I hurriedly took it off." " Tbe poor girl oame to my house after sbe I«?ft bere, aud begged me to take her iulo my employ." "Did sbo tell yon why abe left?" asked Mrs. Jlabury, quickly. "Yes, she told me tho wbole storry; but of course I could not take her under the oiroum¬ atances. Is ahe with you now ?" " No; the faot is, I had been so poaitive aa to her gnilt, while Walter believed her inno¬ oent, that I could not acknowledge myaelf ao mucb in the wrong. In truth, I have not told him yet that I found the bracelet; I aup¬ poae I shall some day, but I may as well give him time to forgel bow earneatly be pleaded the poor thing's cauae. Don't you think ao my dear?" she aaked, with a forced langh. "Oh, yea," Mra. Chapman anawered ab¬ sently rising to take ber leave. With sincere regret for her selfiahness and indifference, and determiued to make all the reparation in hei power, Mrs. Chrpman went at once to what had been Ruth's home. Uer feelings may be better imagined than described, when she fonnd—not Ruth in need of her tardy kind¬ ness—but a mourning mother and brother. Sbe listened with an aching heart, to the ac¬ count of Ruth^s aickneaa and death, and be¬ held witb aometbing like awe, tbe holy rftig- n ation so apparent iu the atricken mofier's looks and words, as ahe talked of her child. Humbly asking permiaaion lo visit her again aod to snpply her with comforts while she waa sick. Once more Mrs. Chapman drov^ to Mrs, Mabury's honse ; and interrupting her friend's lively expressions of surprise at aeeing her again so soon, and regardless of Mr. Ma. bury'a presence, abe said, " I have been to eee Ruth, but I was too late—ahe is dead." '* On no I you cannot mean it;" and Mra. Mabury sank pale, and nearly fainting, into a chair. " When did tbe poor girl die?" asked Mr. Mabury, aud Mra. Chapman described iu a few words her viait to Ruth's motber. " Walter, I want to speak to you—yoa will deapise me, hat I mnst tell yon all;" and Mra. Mabnry, in faltering tonea, and with many teara, told of her harsbneas, her concealmeut, and her cruel negleot to repair the wrong she bad doue. At first her huaband felt only fierce displeasure ; andhis wife's anguiah was too great for him to add to it, by one word of blame, though hecould say nothing to allevi¬ ate it. Mra. Chapmau had quietly withdrawn and we need only add that the two frienda never forgot the severe lesson tanght them by the illness aud death of the unoffending Ruth Ceu,drbs.—Hard ba his fate who makes not childbood bappy ; it ia so easy. It does not reqnire wealth, or position, or fame j only a little kindness, and tbe tact whioh it in¬ spires. Give a child a chance to love, to play, to exercise his imagination and affeotiona, and he will be happy. Give him the conditions of health—simple food, air, exerciae, and a little vatiety in lus occupations—and he will be happy, and expand in happineas. When Lamartine was in the ascendant, at the early part of the revolution of 1848, his merits were being disoussed at a club of artiats and authors.

In ahort, Kate In time beoame magnificently miserable, aplendidiy unhappy. Then a ohange beoame apparent to her hua¬ band. He could not remain long blind to the fact that his love waa not retarned. He sought the company of those whoae gayety might lead him to forget the sorrow and de¬ spair ofbis aonl. Tbis ahailow joke, however, was unsatisfaotory, and impelled by a power¬ fnl longing for love, he went astray to warm his heart by a strange fire, Kate saw herself now in the midst of a gor¬ geous desolation, baming witha thirat nncon¬ qnerable by golden streams that ffbwed arouud her—^panting with a hunger whioh not all the food of flattery and admiratiou could ap- KATE YALE'S MARRIAGE. "If ever I marry," Kate Yale uaed lo aay, balf in jest, half in eameat, "the happy man— or the unhappy one, if yoa please, ha I ha I— shall be a peraon possessed of these three qnalifications: " First, a fortune. " Second, good looka. " Third, common sense." " I mention tbe fortune first, becanae I think it the most needful and deairable qualification of the tbree. Altbougb I never could think of marrying a fool, or a man wbose ugliness I should be ashamed of, atill I think to talk sense for the one, and shine for the other with plenty of money, would be preferable to living obscure with a haudsome, intellectual man—to wbom ecouomy might be necessary. I do not know bow mnch of this sentiment came from Kate's heart. She undoubtedly in¬ dulged in lofty ideas of station and atyle—for ber edncation in the daties and aims of life bad been deficient, or ratber errotieons ; but that sbe was capable of deeper, better feelinga, noue ever doubted who had obtained even a partial glimpse of her true woman's natnre. And the lime arrived when Kate waa to take thatall important atep ofwhich abe had often spoken ao lightly—when ahe waa to demon¬ strate to her frieuds bow much of her heart waa in the words we have juat quoted. At tbe eucbanting age of eighteen she had many auitors, but as she never gave a serions thought to more tban two, we will follow ber example, and, discarding all others, except tboae favored ones, consider their relative claims. If this were any other than a tme-atory, I should ceriainly use an artist's privilege, and aim to produce au effect by making a atroog contrast between tbo two favored individuals? If I conld have my owu way, one shoald be a poor geaius and something of a hero; the otber a wealthy fool, and somewhat of a knave. But tbe truth is— Onr poor genius wag not much of a genins— not very poor eitber. He was by profesaion a teaober of maaic, aud be could live Y^ry com¬ fortably by thf exercise tbereof—without the most distant hope, however, of ever attaining to wealth. Moieover, Francia Minot possessed escellent qualities, whieh entitled him to be called by elderly people a "fine character," by hiaoompanion£,a "noble good fellow," and by the ladies geuerally, a " darling." Kate could not help loving Mr. Frank, and ht:* knew it. He was certain she prefeired hia society even to tbat of Mr. Wellington, whom alone be saw flt to honor with the appellation of rival. Thia Mr. Wellington—his companions called him " Duke,"—was no idiot or humpback, aa I conld have wished him to be, in order to make a good slory, On tbe contrary, he waa a man of aense, gook looks, and fine mannera, and there waa notbing of the knave abont him, aa I conld ever ascertain. Beaide tbis, hia income was aufficient to en¬ able him to live auperbly. Also, he waa con¬ sidered two or tbree degrees handsomer than Mr. Frank Minot. Therefore, tbe ouly thing on which Frank had to depend was the power he poasesaed overKatj's sympathies and affections. The "Duke," althongh jnst the man for herin every sense, being blessed with a fortane, good looks and common aenae—had never been able to draw these ont, and the amiable, conceited Mr. Frank, wasnot willing to believe that sbe would auffer mere;worldly considera¬ tion to control the aspiratious of the heart. However, one day, when he pressed ber to declare hia fate, she said to bim with a sigh : " Oh, Frank I I am sorry we ever metl" " Sorry!" "Yes; for we mnst part now." " Part!" repeated Frauk, tuming pale. It waa evident he had not expected tbis. "Yes—yea," aaid Kate, caating down her head with anoiher piteous sigh. Frank sat by her side ; he placed hia arm around her waist, without heeding her feeble resistauce; he lowered bia voice, and talked to her nntil she—prond Kate—wept bitterly. "Katie," aaid be, then, witb a bnrat of paa¬ aion, " I know yon love me; but yon are proud ambitions, aelfiah [ Now, if yon would have me leave you, aay the word and I go." "Gol" murmured Kate; "go," " Have you decided ?" whiapered Prank. " I have," " Tben, love, farewell." He took herhand,gazeda moment,tenderly and aorrowfuUy, into her beautifal, tearful face, and then claaped ber to hia bosom. She permitted tbe embrace. She even gave way to impulse, and twined ber arms around bis neck; but in a moment her resolntion came to her aid, and she puahed him from her wilh a aigh. " Sball I go ?" he articulated, A feeble yes fell from her lips—and an in¬ stant later sbe waa lying on the aofa, aobbing and weeping alone. To tear the tenacious root of love out of her heart had cost her more tban she coold have anticipaied, and the certainty of a golden life of luxury proved but a poor consolation, it aeemed, for the sacrifice sbe had made. She lay long upon the aofa, I say, sobbing and weepiug passionately. Gradually her grief appeared to exhaust itself. Iler tears ceased to flow, and at length her eyes and cheeka were dry. Her bead was pillowed on ber arm, aud her face was half hidden in a flood of curls. Tbe strngg'e was over. The agony waa paat. She saw Mr. Wellington enter, and rose cheer¬ fully to meet him. Hia manners pleased her'^ his station and fortune fascinated her more- He offered her bis hand—she accepted it, A kiss sealed the engagement—bnt it was not anoh a kiaa as Frank had given her, and she could scarce repreis a sigh I There was a magnificent wedding. Splendid¬ ly attired, dazzling the eye with her beanty thus adomed, witb everything aronnd swim¬ ming in the charmed atmoaphere of afairy-land Kate gave her heart to the mau her ambition —not her love—bad choaen. But oertainly ambition could not have made a bettei ohoice. Already she saw herself sur¬ rounded by a magnificent court, of which she was the acknowledged and admired qaeen. The favors of fortune were ahower^d upon her, sbe fioated luxuriously upon the amooth and glaaay wave of a charmed life. Notbing was wanied in the whole circle of her exiatence to adom it, and make it bright with happiness. But she was not long in dis¬ covering that tbere waa something wanting in her breast. Her friends were namerous, her husbaud tender and kind, and loving; but all the at¬ tenlion and affeotiona could not fill her heart. She had onoe felt Ita ohord and aympathy moyed by a skillfal touoh—she had not known She reproached her huaband for deserting her thus, and he anawered her with angry aud deaperate taunts of deception, and a total lack of love, which smote ber conscience heavily. "You do not oare for me," he ciied;— " then why do yon complain that I bestow elae¬ where the affeotion yoa have met witb cold¬ ness ?" " Bat it is wrong—sinful," Kate remonstra¬ ted. " Tes, I know it," aaid her husband,.fiercely. " It is tbe evil fmit of an evil aeed. And who aowed tbat seed ? Wbo gave me a hand with¬ oat a heart ? Who beoame & sharer of my for¬ tane, but gave me no share in her sympathy ? Who devoted me to the fate of a loving, un¬ loved husband ? Nay, do not weep, and olasp yonr hands, and sigh and sob with such des¬ peration, for I aay nothing you do uot deserve to bear." "Very well," said Kate, "I do not aay your reproaches are uudeaerved. But, grant¬ ing I am the cold, deceitful thing yon oall me, yon know this atate of things oannot oontinne," " Yes, I know it." " Well?" Mr. Wellington's brow gathered darkly—^his eyes fiashed with determination ; his lips carl¬ ed with soom. " I have made up my mind," aaid he, " that we should not live together any longer. I am tired of being called the hnsband of tbe apljn- did Mrs. Wellington. I will move in my circle; yon sball shine in yours. I will place no re¬ straint on your aotions, nor shall you on mine. We will be free." "But the world ["shrieked poor Kate, trem¬ bling. " The world will admire you the same ; and what more do you desire f"asked herhusband bitterly, "This marriage of hands and net of hearta is mockery. We have played tbe farce long enongh. Few understand the tme mean¬ ing ofthe terma hnsband and wife ; bnt do yon know wbat they should mean ? Do you feel that the only tme union is that of love and sympatby?" Then enongh of this maaiery. Farewell. I go ^to consult frienda ahoutthe terms of separation. Nay, donot tremble and cry, and cling to me now; I sball be liberal to yon. Aa muob of my fortune ahal be yonrs as yon desire." He pushed her from him. She fell npon tbe sofa. From a heart torn with anguish ahe shrieked alond : "Franki Frank! why did I send yon from me ? Why was I blind uutil sight brougbt me misery ?" Sheiay upon the aofa, sobbing and weeping paasionately. Gradually ber grief appeared to exhaust itself; her breathiug became calm; her eyes and cheeks dry ; her head lay peacefully on her arm over which swept her dishevelled tresses, until with a start she cried: " Frank! ob Frank I come back I" "Here I am said asoft voice by ber side. She raised her head, Sbe opened her aston¬ ished eyea. Frank waa atanding beside her. "You havebeen aaleep," he aaid, smiling kiudly. "Asleep I" " And dreamiug, too, I shoald say; not pleasantly, either." "Dreaming!" marmnred Kate, "and is it all a dream?" "I hopa so," replied Frank, taking her band. "You could not mean to send me away from you so cruelly, I knew. So I waited iu yonr father's study, where I bave been talking with him all of an bour. I came back to plead my canse with you once more, and I found yon bere where I left yoa, asleep." " Oh I wbat a horrible dream!" murmnred Kato, rnbbing ber eyea. "It was so like a terrible reality that I shudder now to think of it. I thought I was married!" " Aud what would tbat be so horrible ?" asked Frank. "I hopo, tben you did not dream you were married to me?" " No, I thonght I gave my hand without my heart I" " Then If you gave your hand, it wonld not be withoat your heart ?" " No, Frank," said Kate, and her bright eyes were beaming happily through her tears," and here it is!" And soon there was a real marriage—not a splendid, but happy one—followed by a life of love, of contentment; and that was tbe mar¬ riage of Frank Minot aud Kate Yale. ADVEUTURE OF AN ORPHAN BOY. Toward the latter part of the summer of 1840, a lad of prepossessing appearanoe enter¬ ed the beautiful towii of Gt—» situated at the foot of Seneca Lake, NeT?3^ork, near the cen¬ tre of the State. He had travelled from the Weatern part of Ohio, where hie father, a wid¬ ower, had died from one of those malignant fevers so common in newly made countriea, while overseeing the cultivation of s large traot of land, in order to regain a fortune lost daring the disastrous specalations of 1836. Being an only son and left among strangers at the death of his father, George Wentworth resolved to leave Obio, and remove to the State of New York, for the purpose of trying his fortune in any manner that chauce might offer. He had pasaed throngh several towus aud villages on bis route, without meeting with anything to attract his attention, until rbaching T . This flne town, with its love¬ ly lake and fine scenery atruok his fancy ; ao be determined to obtain employment if possi¬ ble, and make it his fnture home. George was completely bewildered and stam¬ mered forth a request to be allowed a few hours for oonaideration. This being granted, he repaired to his room and threw himaelf on the bed in a paroxysm of grief. Could the Jndge have gaeaaed what be himself had hardly dared to hope ? What right had he to hia benefaotor's danghter and fortune ? None I He would smother hi& fdellnga, and eam an honorable living by his own exertions. Varioua were tbe rumors aet afloat by the Boandal-mongera of G , as to tbe cause of young Wentworth's leaving bis patron's mansiouj but their inuendoes were unheeded. His brow wore a more thoughtful expression, aud his oheeka grew paler. The Jndge aoted toward bim In a straight-forward, frank man¬ ner, yet never addressed him in tbe kind, fatherly tones as had been his wont before tbe inoident that occurred on the lake. If he ohanced to meet Ida in his walks, a friendly nod was all that passed; sttll ahe felt tbat his looks betrayed him, for tbe warm blood gushed from his loving heart, and .tinted bis oheek ,„ . , with the tell-tale blush, and he cherished the While walking along the pnncipal street of - , , ., t, .i. »i^ i« -l. i. < ** ° ,7 . . , pleaaiuff thought that her looka were beamine i with love and hope.

I weeks a series of ably-writton articles had ap "VERY PROUD TO-NIGHT." It was a oold night in wiuter. The wind blew and tbe snow was whirled furiously about seekiug to hide Itself beneath cloaks and hoods, and in the very hair of those who were out. A distinguished lecturer was to apeak, and, notwithstandng tbe storm the villagers ventured forth to hear him. Wil¬ liam Annesley, buttoned up to tbe chin in his thick overcoat, accompanied his motber. It was difficul to walk throngh tbe new-fallen anow, against tbe piercing wind, and William said to his mother : "Couldn't you walk more easily if you took my arm ?" " Perhaps I could," his mother replied, as sbe pnt her arm tbrongh bis, and drew np as close as poasible to him. Togetbartheybreast ed the storm, the mother and the boy whohad once been carried in ber arms, but wbo had grown np ao tall that she could now leanon his. They bad not walked far before he said to her: " I am very proud to-night, mother." " Prond tbat you can take care of me ?" she said to him, wilh a heart gashing with tender, neas. " Tbis ia the first time you bave leaned np¬ on me," said the happy boy. There will be few houra in that ohild's life of more exalted pleaaure than he enjoyed that evening, even ifhe should live to old age, and should, in his manhood, lovingly provide for her ftho wjtched over him in his helpless in¬ fancy. It was a noble pride that made his motber love him, if it were possible, more than ever, and made her pray for him with new eamestness, thankfnl for his devotedlove, and hopeful for his fntnre. There is no more beautiful sight than affectionate, devoted, obe¬ dient children. I am sure He that comman¬ ded children to honor their father and their mother, must look npon suoh with pleaanre. May He bless dear William, and every other boy whose heart is filled with ambition to be a blessing and "a ataff^' to his mother. of raiaiug tho pole and makiug party^apeecbes. Ourhero forced bis way into tbe crowd jnat as tbey .were raiaiug.the " Stara and Stripea," with the names of their candidates to ths top of tbt) flag-staff. Tbe flag biid scarcely rep.cbed half-way; the entbusiaam being at its height, when the cord twisted and canght iu the little wheel at tbe top. Tbey pulled and tried every way, but were mir.ble lo raise orlower the flag a single iuch. Tbe excitement and cbeering ceased, aud all eyos were turned to. the half- masted flag. A portion of tbo opposition party, who wuro gronped a little iu .he. rear of tbej main tody, begau to jeer and joke about the apparently bad omen, to the evident discomfi¬ ture oftheir opponenta. At leuglh, Judge S , editor and publiab¬ er of the G Journal, then a candidate for Congress, offered fifty dollara to the peiaon wbo would climb tbe staff and draw the cord through the wheel. The atmoatsitence reigned for several minutes, bat no one advanced to make thi daring trial. *' Will no one volunteer ?" shouted the j udge, atrongly exoited aa a peal of laaghter went np from the ranks oftbe oppouition. The chuckle had scarcely died away, how¬ ever, before George, with hia cap and ahoea off atepped before the Judge, and with a confldeut look exclaimed—¦ " Yes, air; I'll climb it 1" " You, my lad; are you atrong enongh ?" " Oh, yes, air; I am naed to climbing." " Tbeu go ahead my little Spartan," aaid tbe judge, at the aame time giving him an en- conraging pat upon the shoulder. Steadily, band over hand, bia feet clutching the pole in a manner tbat proved him an ex¬ pert climber, George made hia way to the very top of tbe stafff which was so slender that it swayed to and fro with bis weight. Nothing daunted, he wound his legs right and left aronnd the pole, and with hia right hand un¬ twisted tbe cord. Shouting fearlesaly to tboae below to boist away, he clung on till tbe flag fairly reached the top, and tben slowly de¬ soended. Tbe cheers that now rent the air were terr¬ ific—every body, opposition aud all, joining in with one universal shout. After the excitement had somewhat subsi. ded. Judge S , looked npou the boy with admiration, and took ont hia pooket book to pay the promised reward. George noticed tbe action and exclaimed— " Keep your muuey, sii, i -n out uo pay for helping to raise an American flag. " Nobly said, my little man; wbat is your name ?" inquired tbe Judge. "George Wentworth, sir; lam an orphan, and just arrived bere iu aearch of employ¬ ment," replied oar hero, his bright eyes glis¬ tening with a tear, " Well, you shall live with me, "exclaimed the Judge; " I'll take care of you for the fuiure." Five years have passed away since George Wentworth had beeu a member of hia bene¬ factor's family. In tbe meantime. Judge S. had beeu defeated by hia political opponent, and George bad been initiated into the mys¬ teries of the "Art of Arta." He had become a great favorite with the citizens, and was looked upon as the adopted son of the Judge. It was whispered in private circles that be was to be the envied huaband of the beantiful aud accomplished Ida, tbe Judge's only daughter. Butthis George had not dar_ ed to dream of; 'tis true he never felt ao happy as wbeu in her preseuce, and it did make him twitch to see the foppish stndenta from the oollege awarm around the nnao- knowledged idol of hia heart. Poor yontb I had he known the real state of Ida's feeling the thought wonld have almoat turned hia brain; and could he have interpreted the gleam of joy that flaahed from her eyes when¬ ever be uttered a noble sentiment or sally of wit, it would have fllled bis aoul with ecstacy and delight. One fine day in the latter part of Jnne, Ida, her father and George, were enjoying a sail on the lake in their trim little yacht, the Swan-wbich bad won the cup at the laat regatta under the management of our hero, who w-os standiug with his hand on the mast gazing at tbe beautiful scenery on the opposite ahore. {he Judge held tbe tiller and Ida was leaning over tbe aide of the boat trailing her pretty haud Ibrough the clear water of the lake, when a sudden gnat of wind carreened the yacht so tbat she lost her balance and fell into tbe water, George heard the splash made by Ida, and before tbe Judge could ut¬ ter a cry, he bad kicked off his light aummer shoos, aud plunged in to ber reacue. Beiug a akillfnl and vigorous swimmer, he came up with the atmggling girl before ber clothes al lowed her to aink, and entwining her waist witb his left arm, strnck ont with his right, and kept her above water till the Jndge turned the boat and came to tboir relief. In a few moments tbey were aafe in tbe boat again, and Ida aoon recovered from the effeots of her unexpected bath. Tbe old Judge embraced George and exolaimed, with teara starting from his eyes " God bless you, my dear boy, yon have aaved my daughter'a life, how can I ever re¬ pay you?" " By saying nothing about it," replied ¦ peared in the Judge's paper. They wero ad- dreSBt^d. to all classes—farmera, mechanics, I and laborers. The original and vigoroua atylei ; clear, conviucing arguments, deep and pro" i fouud reasoniug of tbeae articles, invariably : oarried couvictiou to the parties to whom they ! werrt adtiressed. All iba,newspapers ofthe parly of tbat Congressional district copied , them, and cnriosity was on tiptoe to discover ¦ the author, aa tbey were aimply signed by two j little * * . The election passed off, and Jndge S ¦ was.elected by a large majority. Late one night, while Ida aud her father were returning from a party_given in honor of his eleotion, tbey observed a light in the printing-office. As the establishment was usually closed at twilight, it appeared strange that it shonld be lit np at that bonr, so the Jndge determined to learn the oause. Request¬ ing his daugbter to accompany him, they walked np stairs and quietly entered the office. A sight met their gaze which caused tbe heart of one of them to leap violently.— At the desk, a short distance from tbe doon aat George, faat aaleep, with his head resting on his arm. As Ida's father stepped forward to awaken the aleeper, he observed apolitical essay lay¬ ing open on the deak, and a freahly written article with the mysterious** attaohed. Tbe truth flashed upon the Judge in a momeut— he was indebted to George for bia suocesa I He beckoned to Ida, who came trembling to bis side. Just theu tben tbey saw by tbe flick¬ ering lamp a smile pass over the alumberer's face, and be mattered the words "dear Ida,'' in a tender tone. "Oh. father!" exclaimed the loving girl affecliouately, tbrowiui; ber arms around himl " do let George oome home again. It ia snre¬ ly no sin for himto love me !" Awakeued by tbe sound of Ida's voioe, George looked around confused, aud as he saw Ida and her father, he endeavored to hide tbe manuscript. Bat the Judge stopped him, laughing, saying: " It won't do, young rascal' you are fairly caaght, found ont—talk in your aleep, will you ? ha! ha I but oome here, take Ida, and be happy. I know she lovea you. Ha! ha!" George was bewildered and transported—he' had been awakened from a pleasant dream to a bright reality. Matters were soon explained,and the warm¬ hearted Judge, after blessing them botb, prom' *8Qd to see them married before he started fo^ Washington. trne suoh sentiments may notbe in aooordance with the taates and customs of our principles but they have au affinity to virtue, and ean only be duly appreoiated, if we view them in the same ligbt as the author. The' highest opinions of honor whicb we cherish and revere are formed by the iufiueuce of circamstances, eduoation and custom. The liability of human natnre to mould tbe character aud habits according to caltivation is manifested in the exhibitions of those priu¬ oiplea which are daily oalled into play In the common walks of life. The words that flow from the lips of tbe little"obild, are not utter¬ ed by a nataral impulae, but they have their hiatory and the oiroumatances concerning their developement. So the partiaan who expends his talenta and energy for the advancement of his peculiar dootrinea to the exclusion of all other consid¬ erations merits not so mach our cenanze aa our esteem for hJs firmness and valor. Circumstances aa well aa a strong inclination of will are that theelementa shape and determine the prinoiples, opinions and tastea of a man. Then let Napoleon in his own imagination, create circumstancea which will elevate him to the higheat pinnacle of fame, let Cromwell tear down syatema and dynasties to hand down his name to posterity, let Washiugton conqner t-vents to establish himself in the hearts of bis country-men; but let ns follow the dictates of cooscionce, and carry out those principlea which we earneatly believe to be rigbt iu the preaence of opposition and dis¬ couragement. Thia is wbat ooualitutea trno greatnesa. This is what forma a tme beroic spirit, aud elevated manliness. Tben let us have liberality of opinion in viewing the act- tiona of our fellow-men, and due deliberation iu paaaing our jadgment with a faithful con¬ sideration ofthe attending circumstances. Uujust refleoiious on tbo character and mo¬ tivea of our neighbor are the cauaes which tend to degrade and rob the aoul of its sympatby, aud natural affections, aud develop only thoae powers which oast a abadow of selfishneaa and misery in our .future existence. Bat on the other hand sympathy with the feelings and thonghts of othera soften and elevate our characters, and bring ont tbe finer and nobler feeUngs of onr natnre, which cast a mellow light in tbe path of happiuess and true great¬ ness.

The lovely Ida could say nothing, her heart waa overfiowing, but sbe gazed on her pre¬ server with an expression which told volumea.

They reached home with feelings far different from those they bad atarted with. The following moming, George received a notice to meet the Judge in hla library. His heart beat wildly— what oan it mean ? Tbe Judge had determined to put him to a severe test. As aoon aa George entered the library he commenced: " Since becoming an inmate of my family, George, you have oonduoted youraelf in an honorable and worthy manner; performing every duty cbeerfally and neglecting none. You are now of age; and capable of doing buaineas for yourself. I have placed $5000 ^ who stands up for principle, which he con- in tbe bankat your disposal; you can nse ' scientionsly believes tobejastandright,with- this sum as you think proper, or let it remain ' out any consideration of worldly renown and on interest, or yoa can take oharge of my office ! popular applause. Saoh force and stability tinder a salary offifteen handred dollars a year, of opinion constitute the trae elements of a [For the Examiner A Herald.] indulgence" OF OPINION. It is a trnth ever preaent to the mind of a partiaan, that hia own well-being depends on the aaoendency of the class to which he be¬ longs. His very selfishneaa ia therefore sub- imed into a pnblic spirit; aud this public spirit is stimulated to fierce enthusiasm by sympatby, by the desire of applaase, and by the dread of infamy. The only opinion which he values ia the opinion of his fellows; aud in their opiuion devotion to the common cause is tbe most saored of duties. On tbeother band, he is imporious, insolent aud cruel towards his brethren, on the other, his conduct is just, kind and eveu noble. His self-respect leads bim to respect all wbo belong to his own order. His internst impels him to caltivate a good understanding witb those whose prompt, strenuous and onrageons assistauce may at any moment be necessary to preserve his property and life. Tbe char¬ acter thna formed presenta two features. Tbe one mnst be regarded hy every well constitu¬ ted mind with disapprobation. Tbe otber irresistably elicits the admiration and applause of every one. The Spartan smi¬ ting and spuming tbe wretched helot movea our disgnat and raises our greatest indignation. Bnt tbe aame Spartan aporting with a cheer¬ ful miud and uttering hia concise jests on wbat he knowa to be hU last day in tbe pass of Thermopylae is not to be complated without admiration. To a superficial observer it may aeem atrange that so mnch ovil aud so much good should be found togetber. Bnt in trutb, the good and evil which at first sight appear almost imcompatible, are clearly connected and have a common origin. It was becanse the Spartan had been taaght to revere him¬ self as one of a race of sovereigns, aud to look down on all tbat was not Spartan as of an iu¬ ferior apeoies, that he had no fellow-feel iug and sympatby for tbe miserable aerfa who crouched before him. It waa becaose be bad been taugbt that it was tbe lowest grade of infamy that the thongbt of submitting to foreign power, or of turning bis back before an enemy, sbould ever in the last extremity cross his miud. Tbe Indian as he treapaasea npou his white ueighhor'a righta merits the diaapprobation of every one. But his intenae attachment to hia own tribe, onatoma and manners, partakes of tbe nature of virtne. The sentiment is aiisunderatood and ill-regulated ; but still it is heroic. There mnst be some elevation of sonl in a man who loves the society of whicb he ia a member, and the leader wbom he fob lowa with a love stronger tban tbe love of liie. It ia tme he may be apparently diabouest. It ia true he may violate the rules of jnatice and equity. It ia true he may diaregard and tram¬ ple upon every principle of social and moral virtuea. Yet if his intentiona are pure aud his objecta noble, he exiles our admiration and sympathy, and our hearta are moved with affeotonate zeal in reaponae to the olaims of such noble and elevated actions. The true hero is not always tbe one who performs apparently tfae greateat aotions In the popular eatimatiou; but the one who acts from a high senae of duty towards hia fellow- men, and carries ont theae principlea which he baa adopted as humane and honorable as wellas jnst and rigbt. The aoldier may be honored with the sweetest crown of flowers for his bravery displayed on tbe field of battle; the statesman may receive tbe highest senti¬ ments of applause and admiration for the force ofcbaracter manifested in maintaining the rigbts of human freedom ; the reformer may be revered by tbe noble and the good for his interest verified iu tbe great oanse of hnmau¬ ity ; yet all these only caat a lingering refiect¬ ion of love and aympatby over the aotions and zeal oarried out on the part of the one 0"2STERS ONLY 50 CENTS PER HUNDRED. fresh or salt, delivered at your doot.

SLATMAKER, Ageut for Reigart's Old Wine Slore, iu this cily, by a promi- ocntpractiblag Phyaician of thw connty, wbo baa ex¬ tensively u^od the Brandy referred to In bis regolar practice. It is commeuded to the attention of ihoae afllieted with Indigeation or Dyspepsia: BRANDY AS A MEDICINE;—This now much abused alcobelic stimulant wae never Intended as a bevorage, hot was ased aa a medicine of great potency and reila- bUity lo tbe cure of some of the moat deatructive and vlruleot dlaeah6H,which sweptheforethem tbeir annnal tboosaods of victlma. Aside Irom the iadli>penaable naa of alcohol in the arta aud manufacturea, we, with a purely phllautbroplc motive, ioteud to present to tbe favorable aotice of inuofufj—especlaUy tbose afllieted with that proteao and miaerable disease, Dyspci-sia— a speciflc romedy ia nolhiug more nor lesa than BRANDY. The agod, w.tb feeble appetitea, and more or less debilltv, will find this simple medicine, whea Ohed pi operiy^ a sovereign remedy for all tbelr ills and aehea. But alace we bave recommended tfai:) aa a remedv. bo it, bowever, utricily understood lhat we pr^e- scrlhe'aad use batone article, and that la "HEIGARTS OLD IfRANDY,"—'io\d by our enterprising young frieod, U. E. Slaymakkb, This brandy bas blood the lent for yoara, and haa uever failed, aa Iar as onr expe¬ rience extends, and we iherefore give It tbe preference over all othor brandlea—no matter with how mauy jaw- breaking French tilled tbey are branded. (>ne-fonrlh of the rooney that la yeariy ibrown away on varioua Impotentdynpopalaapeclflcs,woald aufflee to boy allthe iirandy locure any aueh caae or cases. We bave often beeo adviaed by prominent cltizans lo our oeighbor¬ hood—who are etrlctly temperate—lo publiah tfae vir¬ tues of thla brandy, lu tbls all pervading malady, aa It would In a mauner abolish the host of would-hj quack remeiles, with wblch iovailda are so ootrageoualy hambagged, aad bring cheer and comfort to many a deaolate fireaide. lo proof of what Reigart's Old Brandy haa accomplished as a remedy, lu the diseases to which we have alluded, we canaummou quite a reaxioctable uumber of persons, wfao will freely teHlfy as to tbe greatand laatiog benellts they bave derived from Its ut^e as a medicine. Several casea of the muat Inveternte form of Dyepepfela—where It proved successful—should alune bufflce io convince any liberal mlad that Old llrandy la Iofallible. Oue case In particular we will cite:—A hard working farmer had been alllicted with anexhaUftiag djapepKia for a number of years; hla siomach would reject almoHt every kind of food; he had sour ernctatlona couatanlly—uo apputlse—lo fact, he was obliged to rontrict his diet to crackers aud atale bread, aud ai* a bevorage he uaed McOranu's Boot Baer. He is a Melborlist. and tbea, as now, preached at limes, aad In blit diNCoar«ei>fiea declaimed uarauslly sgaln»t nil kiad-'oftitrongdrink. Wbea advlsad lo try Rei¬ gart's Old Brandy in hia case, be looked up with astou- Isbmeol; hut ufter roluUag Its woadorftil effects in the cai-ifs ol bomtt of hla u^ar acqualuiaacOM, be at laat con- seated to follow oor advice, lie used tba brandy falth¬ fally and steadily; tbc flrat botlle giving bim aa appeUte, aad beforo the second was all takea be was a eound wan, wltb a atomach capable of digesting any thiog wblcb be chose to eat. He still keeps It sod uaea a little oceaaionally ; aod, moreover, since he bos this mediciae, he lias beeo of very little pecuniary beuefll to tbe doctor. If auy are skeptical, or believe tbls is written to benefit auy liqaor dealer wecan.if required, give a cartlflcaic eodorsed by quite a respectable onmber of peraous, who hive been cored by it, and who will at anvtlmn cbeerfoily testify as to Its auperior healthy virtues lu dyspepsia and all dlseasi-B of a deblllatlng character. Those deslriog to oae this brandy will obralu full dlrectloas of Mr. Klaymaker; hut auch as desire to ose It for latoxlcatlng purposes, we advbe to rather suffer with dynpepsla, Aud let Reigart's old braady get older, or until tbey can form a reaolutloa to use It as a medicine.

THE MISSING BRACELET-
" No, Walter, there can be no donl>t .ibout her gailt. I am positive tbut I }mi\ the brace¬ let with my other jewels on my dressing- table; none of tbe Servants come iulo my room except Rntb, and the braoelet is gone." " Well, it does look suspicious, I confess Annette ; but lbe girl bas as honest a face as I eversaWjAud sbe is devoted to yoa, I don't like to believtj tbat sbe could do such a thing."
" You can't think tbink I am willing to be¬ lieve it I am forced to. You know I shall miss Ruth sadiy, but I think I know my dnty to, myself and otber servants to well to allow a theif to remain iu lbe bouse,"
" Well, I can only say, don't do anything rashly. It would be a aerions thing to aend a yonng girl out into the world with such a taint npon ber character. Good morning, my dear."
Mrs. Ma}-bnrj- stood by her dressing-table meditating several minutes after her husband had left her; and tben, witb moalh and eyes settled to a cold slerimess. sbe rang tbe ball, and seated berself to await tbe answer tn her enmmoua. Mrs. Mabury was not hard-haart- ed, but like too many, surrounded by tbe re¬ finements and safeguards of a bappy and ele gant home sbe had no pyuijiatby for tbose wbo, exiH)5ed to so many and great lempt.itiona, sometime:^ are overtiome; an.i she bad little of tbat cb.irity "wbioh tbinketb no evil."— Rntb soon made ber appearance, and stood waiting ber mistress's commands. "Did you ring for me, ma'm i"' "Yes, I rang for yoc," aud the cold eyes were fixed, iu a searching gaze, upon the girl's fdce, Sbe retumed it an iustant, wonderingly, and then her eyes fell, and a faiut flush mounted to her forehead. " I see you cannot bear my scrntiny. Guilt is ever cowardly."
*' Gnilt 1 wbat can yon mean, Mra. Maburyf" eiolaimed Rntb, ina startled tone,
" Yonr downcast look told too plainly that yoa know what I mean. Y'on will do WoU to lay aside all hypocrisy now, for it will not av^l."
"Oh, what have I done? indeed you are mistaken. I am iunocent; " and Rath passed her hand wildly over ber eyes, as if to rouse heraelf from a painful dream. Something like pity and misgiving stole into Mrs. Mabnry'a beart. Uigbt ebe not be mistaken, after all, and Ruth be innocent ? No, there were tbe circumstances, aod tbey were all against her. "Ruth, can you acconnt for tbe sndden disap¬ pearance of a bracelet from my dressing tablf, withont bands ? I retnrn late from a party, and leave my dress aud jewels, as usnal, for yoa to put in their places in the moming. As usual, uo one enters my room except yourself, and so far as I know, all is right. In the afternoon you lell me that yonr mother is worse, your brother has come for yon, and I give yon leave to go to her. In lhe evening I open my drawer, the key of which I have had in my possession since you went ont, look for the bracelet, and lo ! it is gone!" Sbe paused and Rntb atood pale, trembling and tearless. She almost believed heraelf guilly, the evi¬ dence was eo strong, and only ejacniated hope¬ lessly, *'I did not take it."
" Rntb, I am sorry for you, and if yon will retnrn tbe bracelet, I will keep you, on trial as a lower servant. Of coarse, I conld not trast yon as I have done. Willyou do it?" "I cannot," she gasped ; " I have not got it —I never bad it—I did not see it with tbe other thinge."
" Mrs. Mabury's face grew oold aud bard again. "Well, then, yoa must go, and I must think of yon, wbom I have trusted au"! befriended, aa hardened aud ungrateful. Here ia the money that is due you, and I bope you will not go on from bad to worae. Good-by." Ruth's hand opened and closed on the mon¬ ey, and abe tarned and left the room withont a word. Mechanically she went up alaira aud gathered her scanty wardrohe, tied ou her rnaty black bonnet, wrapped her thin sbawl abont her, and slood on the siduwalk, all with¬ out auy real consciousness of wbal sbe waa do¬ ing. The coid, damp air, sent a cbill throngh ber frame, and then the qu^dtion came, where should ahe go ? Kot bome to ber motber; 0, no, not to ber siek motber, with such a har¬ den of misery and disgrace. She would be¬ lieve in her innocence, but the paiu wonld kill ber. Bnt wbat conld she do ? Sbe sat down on a slep—uot of tbe bouae sbe bad left, bnt of oue near by—to recover her stun¬ ned senses, aud to consider. Mr*, Chapman —ahe had been verv kind lo Ruth's inotbwr and always had a kiud word for Rntb, when she aaw her at Mrs. Mabury's. Sbe mti*/ do somethiug—sbe wonld goto Mrs. Chapman ; perhapa aha woutd believe ber innocent. Sbe got up from her seat and made \wr way to
¦ street, aud rang tbe bell at ahandsome
fonr-story, brown-front bouse, aud soon stood in the preseuce of Mrs, Cb.ipman.
"Why. Ruth, wbat is tbu matter? yon look
as if you oonld not stand. Sit down, child,
and tell we your errand. Is Mrs. Mabury ill ?'»
" I bave left there—have beeu seut away,"
Ruth said, witb difBculty.
" You have been sent away.Ruth, forwhat pray I It must be Bometbing very aerions that would make Mrs, Mabury part with you."
And tben slowly, and amid sobs and tears, which bnrst forth for tbe first time. Roth told her story. Mra. Chapman listened, in wonder and pity, moved almost to tears by the poor girl's diatresa, and moved almost to say, "Rnth I believe you are innocent. I will give yoa a home." But tbat would not do. Mra. Mabnry was a lady whose frieadahip she prized too highly, to risk losing it by taking under her wing one whom she had pronounced nnwor¬ thy, and who, after all, might be really guilty. So her kindness and sympathy spent them¬ aelves in words, and Rath went forth into the Btreet more ntterly desolate than ever, bat atill ihrinking from the idea of going hom« to pAin htr mother with her tale of woe; though
and how she grew almost fatnt with dread. " No ma'am, I have none.'*
" Uow ia that?" asked the lady, looking at Rath with snrprise, as she noted the qnicken¬ ed breath, and the oolor oome and go. " Did you leave of your own ohoioe ?"
"No ma'am."
" Yoa were sent away f"
" Yes."
" Where did yoa live ?"
'* At Mrs. Jlabury'a, No. street,"
answered Ruth, with a ohoking voice, feeling much aa if she were signing her own death- warrant.
" Ah, I know Mrs. Mabury slightly. It is strange," she said, " with such a faoe. What can have been the tronble ? I am sorry you bave no reference; I think I shonld like yon, but I ought not to take any one for the chil¬ dren wbo is not well reoommended," and she turned away.
Ruth turned too, and as qnickly as her trem¬ bling limba, wonld allow, left the office. "Oh, mother, mother," waa the cry of her torn heart, and withoat a thought of maldng any farther effort, she bent her steps toward " home." A very lowly home it was, a aingle room in a tenement house; bat it contained Ruth's motber and little brotber, her only earthly friends. Her mother had a Heavenly Friend, i\h03e grace was sufficient for her nt" moat need, and it waa great. She had lost her husband, a comfortable, though bumble home, and had sulTered from sickness aud want. But her faith had not failed; aud she believed tbat her Friend wonld, in His own time and way, lead her ohild, her eanbly snpport, to trustin his care as she did. Was it thus, throagh such a fiery trial, that her prayers were to be answered, she thought, as Ruth, having told her griefs, lay sobbing by her mother's side. "Only give her strength, and let her love the Giver, and then, " Thy will be done.* "
"Itlawellwe cannot see What the end shall be,"
Ruth's mother had reason to bless the loving hand which drew a veil between her and the sad fntnre. She had prayed with heart-felt tmst, " Tby will be done," while that " will'' was biden from ber view, aud was led gently on, step by atep, till "theend" came, and found her still able to breathe tbose words of submission. Throagh long days and nights the molher herself ill, kept her anxious, watch by tbe bedside of her child, as she tossed with fever and pain, and raved wildly of gnilt, diagrace, and all the events of that terrible day. Atiast the fever apent itself, and then came days of quiet consciousness when Ruth could listen to tbe soft tones of her mother's voice, as abe told ber, in simple language, ofa Saviour's love ofhis willing¬ ness to receive her in her ntter weakness when ahe could do nothing bat oommit her¬ self to him. With childlike faith she rested npon bim and peacefully fell asleep, to awaken in her glorious home, where no suspicion of gailt conld assail her pure spirit, aud no sad¬ ness mingle with the joyous strains of her ever swelling song.
"By the way, Mrs. Mabury," Mrs. Chap¬ man aaid to her dear friend, during a morning call, "did you ever flud ont anything about the bracelet wbich Ruth—which yon thongbt Ruth stole ?"
" Oh, she did not steal it, my dear. I never was so aorry for anything in my life, as that I sent her away. The very next time I wore my Magenta moire-antique—^yon know I wore that to Mrs. Ciark'a soiree—I fonnd tbe brace¬ let in tbe pocket I I remembered nothing abont it, but I suppose it became unclaaped in a dance, and I hurriedly took it off."
" Tbe poor girl oame to my house after sbe I«?ft bere, aud begged me to take her iulo my employ."
"Did sbo tell yon why abe left?" asked Mrs. Jlabury, quickly.
"Yes, she told me tho wbole storry; but of course I could not take her under the oiroum¬ atances. Is ahe with you now ?"
" No; the faot is, I had been so poaitive aa to her gnilt, while Walter believed her inno¬ oent, that I could not acknowledge myaelf ao mucb in the wrong. In truth, I have not told him yet that I found the bracelet; I aup¬ poae I shall some day, but I may as well give him time to forgel bow earneatly be pleaded the poor thing's cauae. Don't you think ao my dear?" she aaked, with a forced langh.
"Oh, yea," Mra. Chapman anawered ab¬ sently rising to take ber leave. With sincere regret for her selfiahness and indifference, and determiued to make all the reparation in hei power, Mrs. Chrpman went at once to what had been Ruth's home. Uer feelings may be better imagined than described, when she fonnd—not Ruth in need of her tardy kind¬ ness—but a mourning mother and brother. Sbe listened with an aching heart, to the ac¬ count of Ruth^s aickneaa and death, and be¬ held witb aometbing like awe, tbe holy rftig- n ation so apparent iu the atricken mofier's looks and words, as ahe talked of her child. Humbly asking permiaaion lo visit her again aod to snpply her with comforts while she waa sick. Once more Mrs. Chapman drov^ to Mrs, Mabury's honse ; and interrupting her friend's lively expressions of surprise at aeeing her again so soon, and regardless of Mr. Ma. bury'a presence, abe said, " I have been to eee Ruth, but I was too late—ahe is dead."
'* On no I you cannot mean it;" and Mra. Mabury sank pale, and nearly fainting, into a chair.
" When did tbe poor girl die?" asked Mr. Mabury, aud Mra. Chapman described iu a few words her viait to Ruth's motber.
" Walter, I want to speak to you—yoa will deapise me, hat I mnst tell yon all;" and Mra. Mabnry, in faltering tonea, and with many teara, told of her harsbneas, her concealmeut, and her cruel negleot to repair the wrong she bad doue. At first her huaband felt only fierce displeasure ; andhis wife's anguiah was too great for him to add to it, by one word of blame, though hecould say nothing to allevi¬ ate it. Mra. Chapmau had quietly withdrawn and we need only add that the two frienda never forgot the severe lesson tanght them by the illness aud death of the unoffending Ruth

KATE YALE'S MARRIAGE.
"If ever I marry," Kate Yale uaed lo aay, balf in jest, half in eameat, "the happy man— or the unhappy one, if yoa please, ha I ha I— shall be a peraon possessed of these three qnalifications:
" First, a fortune.
" Second, good looka.
" Third, common sense."
" I mention tbe fortune first, becanae I think it the most needful and deairable qualification of the tbree. Altbougb I never could think of marrying a fool, or a man wbose ugliness I should be ashamed of, atill I think to talk sense for the one, and shine for the other with plenty of money, would be preferable to living obscure with a haudsome, intellectual man—to wbom ecouomy might be necessary.
I do not know bow mnch of this sentiment came from Kate's heart. She undoubtedly in¬ dulged in lofty ideas of station and atyle—for ber edncation in the daties and aims of life bad been deficient, or ratber errotieons ; but that sbe was capable of deeper, better feelinga, noue ever doubted who had obtained even a partial glimpse of her true woman's natnre.
And the lime arrived when Kate waa to take thatall important atep ofwhich abe had often spoken ao lightly—when ahe waa to demon¬ strate to her frieuds bow much of her heart waa in the words we have juat quoted.
At tbe eucbanting age of eighteen she had many auitors, but as she never gave a serions thought to more tban two, we will follow ber example, and, discarding all others, except tboae favored ones, consider their relative claims.
If this were any other than a tme-atory, I should ceriainly use an artist's privilege, and aim to produce au effect by making a atroog contrast between tbo two favored individuals? If I conld have my owu way, one shoald be a poor geaius and something of a hero; the otber a wealthy fool, and somewhat of a knave.
But tbe truth is—
Onr poor genius wag not much of a genins— not very poor eitber. He was by profesaion a teaober of maaic, aud be could live Y^ry com¬ fortably by thf exercise tbereof—without the most distant hope, however, of ever attaining to wealth. Moieover, Francia Minot possessed escellent qualities, whieh entitled him to be called by elderly people a "fine character," by hiaoompanion£,a "noble good fellow," and by the ladies geuerally, a " darling."
Kate could not help loving Mr. Frank, and ht:* knew it. He was certain she prefeired hia society even to tbat of Mr. Wellington, whom alone be saw flt to honor with the appellation of rival.
Thia Mr. Wellington—his companions called him " Duke,"—was no idiot or humpback, aa I conld have wished him to be, in order to make a good slory, On tbe contrary, he waa a man of aense, gook looks, and fine mannera, and there waa notbing of the knave abont him, aa I conld ever ascertain.
Beaide tbis, hia income was aufficient to en¬ able him to live auperbly. Also, he waa con¬ sidered two or tbree degrees handsomer than Mr. Frank Minot.
Therefore, tbe ouly thing on which Frank had to depend was the power he poasesaed overKatj's sympathies and affections. The "Duke," althongh jnst the man for herin every sense, being blessed with a fortane, good looks and common aenae—had never been able to draw these ont, and the amiable, conceited Mr. Frank, wasnot willing to believe that sbe would auffer mere;worldly considera¬ tion to control the aspiratious of the heart.
However, one day, when he pressed ber to declare hia fate, she said to bim with a sigh : " Oh, Frank I I am sorry we ever metl" " Sorry!"
"Yes; for we mnst part now." " Part!" repeated Frauk, tuming pale. It waa evident he had not expected tbis.
"Yes—yea," aaid Kate, caating down her head with anoiher piteous sigh.
Frank sat by her side ; he placed hia arm around her waist, without heeding her feeble resistauce; he lowered bia voice, and talked to her nntil she—prond Kate—wept bitterly. "Katie," aaid be, then, witb a bnrat of paa¬ aion, " I know yon love me; but yon are proud ambitions, aelfiah [ Now, if yon would have me leave you, aay the word and I go." "Gol" murmured Kate; "go," " Have you decided ?" whiapered Prank. " I have,"
" Tben, love, farewell." He took herhand,gazeda moment,tenderly and aorrowfuUy, into her beautifal, tearful face, and then claaped ber to hia bosom.
She permitted tbe embrace. She even gave way to impulse, and twined ber arms around bis neck; but in a moment her resolntion came to her aid, and she puahed him from her wilh a aigh. " Sball I go ?" he articulated, A feeble yes fell from her lips—and an in¬ stant later sbe waa lying on the aofa, aobbing and weeping alone.
To tear the tenacious root of love out of her heart had cost her more tban she coold have anticipaied, and the certainty of a golden life of luxury proved but a poor consolation, it aeemed, for the sacrifice sbe had made.
She lay long upon the aofa, I say, sobbing and weepiug passionately. Gradually her grief appeared to exhaust itself. Iler tears ceased to flow, and at length her eyes and cheeka were dry. Her bead was pillowed on ber arm, aud her face was half hidden in a flood of curls.
Tbe strngg'e was over. The agony waa paat. She saw Mr. Wellington enter, and rose cheer¬ fully to meet him. Hia manners pleased her'^ his station and fortune fascinated her more- He offered her bis hand—she accepted it, A kiss sealed the engagement—bnt it was not anoh a kiaa as Frank had given her, and she could scarce repreis a sigh I
There was a magnificent wedding. Splendid¬ ly attired, dazzling the eye with her beanty thus adomed, witb everything aronnd swim¬ ming in the charmed atmoaphere of afairy-land Kate gave her heart to the mau her ambition —not her love—bad choaen.
But oertainly ambition could not have made a bettei ohoice. Already she saw herself sur¬ rounded by a magnificent court, of which she was the acknowledged and admired qaeen. The favors of fortune were ahower^d upon her, sbe fioated luxuriously upon the amooth and glaaay wave of a charmed life.
Notbing was wanied in the whole circle of her exiatence to adom it, and make it bright with happiness. But she was not long in dis¬ covering that tbere waa something wanting in her breast.
Her friends were namerous, her husbaud tender and kind, and loving; but all the at¬ tenlion and affeotiona could not fill her heart. She had onoe felt Ita ohord and aympathy moyed by a skillfal touoh—she had not known
She reproached her huaband for deserting her thus, and he anawered her with angry aud deaperate taunts of deception, and a total lack of love, which smote ber conscience heavily.
"You do not oare for me," he ciied;— " then why do yon complain that I bestow elae¬ where the affeotion yoa have met witb cold¬ ness ?"
" Bat it is wrong—sinful," Kate remonstra¬ ted.
" Tes, I know it," aaid her husband,.fiercely. " It is tbe evil fmit of an evil aeed. And who aowed tbat seed ? Wbo gave me a hand with¬ oat a heart ? Who beoame & sharer of my for¬ tane, but gave me no share in her sympathy ? Who devoted me to the fate of a loving, un¬ loved husband ? Nay, do not weep, and olasp yonr hands, and sigh and sob with such des¬ peration, for I aay nothing you do uot deserve to bear."
"Very well," said Kate, "I do not aay your reproaches are uudeaerved. But, grant¬ ing I am the cold, deceitful thing yon oall me, yon know this atate of things oannot oontinne,"
" Yes, I know it."
" Well?"
Mr. Wellington's brow gathered darkly—^his eyes fiashed with determination ; his lips carl¬ ed with soom.
" I have made up my mind," aaid he, " that we should not live together any longer. I am tired of being called the hnsband of tbe apljn- did Mrs. Wellington. I will move in my circle; yon sball shine in yours. I will place no re¬ straint on your aotions, nor shall you on mine. We will be free."
"But the world ["shrieked poor Kate, trem¬ bling.
" The world will admire you the same ; and what more do you desire f"asked herhusband bitterly, "This marriage of hands and net of hearta is mockery. We have played tbe farce long enongh. Few understand the tme mean¬ ing ofthe terma hnsband and wife ; bnt do yon know wbat they should mean ? Do you feel that the only tme union is that of love and sympatby?" Then enongh of this maaiery. Farewell. I go ^to consult frienda ahoutthe terms of separation. Nay, donot tremble and cry, and cling to me now; I sball be liberal to yon. Aa muob of my fortune ahal be yonrs as yon desire."
He pushed her from him. She fell npon tbe sofa. From a heart torn with anguish ahe shrieked alond :
"Franki Frank! why did I send yon from me ? Why was I blind uutil sight brougbt me misery ?"
Sheiay upon the aofa, sobbing and weeping paasionately. Gradually ber grief appeared to exhaust itself; her breathiug became calm; her eyes and cheeks dry ; her head lay peacefully on her arm over which swept her dishevelled tresses, until with a start she cried:
" Frank! ob Frank I come back I"
"Here I am said asoft voice by ber side. She raised her head, Sbe opened her aston¬ ished eyea. Frank waa atanding beside her.
"You havebeen aaleep," he aaid, smiling kiudly.
"Asleep I"
" And dreamiug, too, I shoald say; not pleasantly, either."
"Dreaming!" marmnred Kate, "and is it all a dream?"
"I hopa so," replied Frank, taking her band. "You could not mean to send me away from you so cruelly, I knew. So I waited iu yonr father's study, where I bave been talking with him all of an bour. I came back to plead my canse with you once more, and I found yon bere where I left yoa, asleep."
" Oh I wbat a horrible dream!" murmnred Kato, rnbbing ber eyea. "It was so like a terrible reality that I shudder now to think of it. I thought I was married!"
" Aud what would tbat be so horrible ?" asked Frank. "I hopo, tben you did not dream you were married to me?"
" No, I thonght I gave my hand without my heart I"
" Then If you gave your hand, it wonld not be withoat your heart ?"
" No, Frank," said Kate, and her bright eyes were beaming happily through her tears," and here it is!"
And soon there was a real marriage—not a splendid, but happy one—followed by a life of love, of contentment; and that was tbe mar¬ riage of Frank Minot aud Kate Yale.

Toward the latter part of the summer of 1840, a lad of prepossessing appearanoe enter¬ ed the beautiful towii of Gt—» situated at the foot of Seneca Lake, NeT?3^ork, near the cen¬ tre of the State. He had travelled from the Weatern part of Ohio, where hie father, a wid¬ ower, had died from one of those malignant fevers so common in newly made countriea, while overseeing the cultivation of s large traot of land, in order to regain a fortune lost daring the disastrous specalations of 1836.
Being an only son and left among strangers at the death of his father, George Wentworth resolved to leave Obio, and remove to the State of New York, for the purpose of trying his fortune in any manner that chauce might offer. He had pasaed throngh several towus aud villages on bis route, without meeting with anything to attract his attention, until rbaching T . This flne town, with its love¬ ly lake and fine scenery atruok his fancy ; ao be determined to obtain employment if possi¬ ble, and make it his fnture home.
George was completely bewildered and stam¬ mered forth a request to be allowed a few hours for oonaideration. This being granted, he repaired to his room and threw himaelf on the bed in a paroxysm of grief. Could the Jndge have gaeaaed what be himself had hardly dared to hope ? What right had he to hia benefaotor's danghter and fortune ? None I He would smother hi& fdellnga, and eam an honorable living by his own exertions.
Varioua were tbe rumors aet afloat by the
Boandal-mongera of G , as to tbe cause
of young Wentworth's leaving bis patron's mansiouj but their inuendoes were unheeded. His brow wore a more thoughtful expression, aud his oheeka grew paler. The Jndge aoted toward bim In a straight-forward, frank man¬ ner, yet never addressed him in tbe kind, fatherly tones as had been his wont before tbe inoident that occurred on the lake. If he ohanced to meet Ida in his walks, a friendly nod was all that passed; sttll ahe felt tbat his looks betrayed him, for tbe warm blood gushed from his loving heart, and .tinted bis oheek

"VERY PROUD TO-NIGHT."
It was a oold night in wiuter. The wind blew and tbe snow was whirled furiously about seekiug to hide Itself beneath cloaks and hoods, and in the very hair of those who were out. A distinguished lecturer was to apeak, and, notwithstandng tbe storm the villagers ventured forth to hear him. Wil¬ liam Annesley, buttoned up to tbe chin in his thick overcoat, accompanied his motber. It was difficul to walk throngh tbe new-fallen anow, against tbe piercing wind, and William said to his mother :
"Couldn't you walk more easily if you took my arm ?"
" Perhaps I could," his mother replied, as sbe pnt her arm tbrongh bis, and drew np as close as poasible to him. Togetbartheybreast ed the storm, the mother and the boy whohad once been carried in ber arms, but wbo had grown np ao tall that she could now leanon his. They bad not walked far before he said to her:
" I am very proud to-night, mother."
" Prond tbat you can take care of me ?" she said to him, wilh a heart gashing with tender, neas.
" Tbis ia the first time you bave leaned np¬ on me," said the happy boy.
There will be few houra in that ohild's life of more exalted pleaaure than he enjoyed that evening, even ifhe should live to old age, and should, in his manhood, lovingly provide for her ftho wjtched over him in his helpless in¬ fancy. It was a noble pride that made his motber love him, if it were possible, more than ever, and made her pray for him with new eamestness, thankfnl for his devotedlove, and hopeful for his fntnre. There is no more beautiful sight than affectionate, devoted, obe¬ dient children. I am sure He that comman¬ ded children to honor their father and their mother, must look npon suoh with pleaanre. May He bless dear William, and every other boy whose heart is filled with ambition to be a blessing and "a ataff^' to his mother.
of raiaiug tho pole and makiug party^apeecbes.
Ourhero forced bis way into tbe crowd jnat as tbey .were raiaiug.the " Stara and Stripea," with the names of their candidates to ths top of tbt) flag-staff. Tbe flag biid scarcely rep.cbed half-way; the entbusiaam being at its height, when the cord twisted and canght iu the little wheel at tbe top. Tbey pulled and tried every way, but were mir.ble lo raise orlower the flag a single iuch. Tbe excitement and cbeering ceased, aud all eyos were turned to. the half- masted flag. A portion of tbo opposition party, who wuro gronped a little iu .he. rear of tbej main tody, begau to jeer and joke about the apparently bad omen, to the evident discomfi¬ ture oftheir opponenta.
At leuglh, Judge S , editor and publiab¬ er of the G Journal, then a candidate for
Congress, offered fifty dollara to the peiaon wbo would climb tbe staff and draw the cord through the wheel. The atmoatsitence reigned for several minutes, bat no one advanced to make thi daring trial.
*' Will no one volunteer ?" shouted the j udge, atrongly exoited aa a peal of laaghter went np from the ranks oftbe oppouition.
The chuckle had scarcely died away, how¬ ever, before George, with hia cap and ahoea off atepped before the Judge, and with a confldeut look exclaimed—¦
" Yes, air; I'll climb it 1"
" You, my lad; are you atrong enongh ?"
" Oh, yes, air; I am naed to climbing."
" Tbeu go ahead my little Spartan," aaid tbe judge, at the aame time giving him an en- conraging pat upon the shoulder.
Steadily, band over hand, bia feet clutching the pole in a manner tbat proved him an ex¬ pert climber, George made hia way to the very top of tbe stafff which was so slender that it swayed to and fro with bis weight. Nothing daunted, he wound his legs right and left aronnd the pole, and with hia right hand un¬ twisted tbe cord. Shouting fearlesaly to tboae below to boist away, he clung on till tbe flag fairly reached the top, and tben slowly de¬ soended.
Tbe cheers that now rent the air were terr¬ ific—every body, opposition aud all, joining in with one universal shout.
After the excitement had somewhat subsi.
ded. Judge S , looked npou the boy with
admiration, and took ont hia pooket book to pay the promised reward.
George noticed tbe action and exclaimed—
" Keep your muuey, sii, i -n out uo pay for helping to raise an American flag.
" Nobly said, my little man; wbat is your name ?" inquired tbe Judge.
"George Wentworth, sir; lam an orphan, and just arrived bere iu aearch of employ¬ ment," replied oar hero, his bright eyes glis¬ tening with a tear,
" Well, you shall live with me, "exclaimed the Judge; " I'll take care of you for the fuiure."
Five years have passed away since George Wentworth had beeu a member of hia bene¬ factor's family. In tbe meantime. Judge S. had beeu defeated by hia political opponent, and George bad been initiated into the mys¬ teries of the "Art of Arta." He had become a great favorite with the citizens, and was looked upon as the adopted son of the Judge. It was whispered in private circles that be was to be the envied huaband of the beantiful aud accomplished Ida, tbe Judge's only daughter. Butthis George had not dar_ ed to dream of; 'tis true he never felt ao happy as wbeu in her preseuce, and it did make him twitch to see the foppish stndenta from the oollege awarm around the nnao- knowledged idol of hia heart. Poor yontb I had he known the real state of Ida's feeling the thought wonld have almoat turned hia brain; and could he have interpreted the gleam of joy that flaahed from her eyes when¬ ever be uttered a noble sentiment or sally of wit, it would have fllled bis aoul with ecstacy and delight.
One fine day in the latter part of Jnne, Ida, her father and George, were enjoying a sail on the lake in their trim little yacht, the Swan-wbich bad won the cup at the laat regatta under the management of our hero, who w-os standiug with his hand on the mast gazing at tbe beautiful scenery on the opposite ahore. {he Judge held tbe tiller and Ida was leaning over tbe aide of the boat trailing her pretty haud Ibrough the clear water of the lake, when a sudden gnat of wind carreened the yacht so tbat she lost her balance and fell into tbe water, George heard the splash made by Ida, and before tbe Judge could ut¬ ter a cry, he bad kicked off his light aummer shoos, aud plunged in to ber reacue. Beiug a akillfnl and vigorous swimmer, he came up with the atmggling girl before ber clothes al lowed her to aink, and entwining her waist witb his left arm, strnck ont with his right, and kept her above water till the Jndge turned the boat and came to tboir relief. In a few moments tbey were aafe in tbe boat again, and Ida aoon recovered from the effeots of her unexpected bath. Tbe old Judge embraced George and exolaimed, with teara starting from his eyes
" God bless you, my dear boy, yon have aaved my daughter'a life, how can I ever re¬ pay you?"
" By saying nothing about it," replied
¦ peared in the Judge's paper. They wero ad- dreSBt^d. to all classes—farmera, mechanics,
I and laborers. The original and vigoroua atylei ; clear, conviucing arguments, deep and pro" i fouud reasoniug of tbeae articles, invariably : oarried couvictiou to the parties to whom they ! werrt adtiressed. All iba,newspapers ofthe parly of tbat Congressional district copied , them, and cnriosity was on tiptoe to discover
¦ the author, aa tbey were aimply signed by two j little * * . The election passed off, and
Jndge S ¦ was.elected by a large majority.
Late one night, while Ida aud her father were returning from a party_given in honor of his eleotion, tbey observed a light in the printing-office. As the establishment was usually closed at twilight, it appeared strange that it shonld be lit np at that bonr, so the Jndge determined to learn the oause. Request¬ ing his daugbter to accompany him, they walked np stairs and quietly entered the office. A sight met their gaze which caused tbe heart of one of them to leap violently.— At the desk, a short distance from tbe doon aat George, faat aaleep, with his head resting on his arm.
As Ida's father stepped forward to awaken the aleeper, he observed apolitical essay lay¬ ing open on the deak, and a freahly written article with the mysterious** attaohed. Tbe truth flashed upon the Judge in a momeut— he was indebted to George for bia suocesa I He beckoned to Ida, who came trembling to bis side. Just theu tben tbey saw by tbe flick¬ ering lamp a smile pass over the alumberer's face, and be mattered the words "dear Ida,'' in a tender tone.
"Oh. father!" exclaimed the loving girl affecliouately, tbrowiui; ber arms around himl " do let George oome home again. It ia snre¬ ly no sin for himto love me !" Awakeued by tbe sound of Ida's voioe, George looked around confused, aud as he saw Ida and her father, he endeavored to hide tbe manuscript. Bat the Judge stopped him, laughing, saying:
" It won't do, young rascal' you are fairly caaght, found ont—talk in your aleep, will you ? ha! ha I but oome here, take Ida, and be happy. I know she lovea you. Ha! ha!"
George was bewildered and transported—he' had been awakened from a pleasant dream to a bright reality.
Matters were soon explained,and the warm¬ hearted Judge, after blessing them botb, prom' *8Qd to see them married before he started fo^ Washington.
trne suoh sentiments may notbe in aooordance with the taates and customs of our principles but they have au affinity to virtue, and ean only be duly appreoiated, if we view them in the same ligbt as the author. The' highest opinions of honor whicb we cherish and revere are formed by the iufiueuce of circamstances, eduoation and custom.
The liability of human natnre to mould tbe character aud habits according to caltivation is manifested in the exhibitions of those priu¬ oiplea which are daily oalled into play In the common walks of life. The words that flow from the lips of tbe little"obild, are not utter¬ ed by a nataral impulae, but they have their hiatory and the oiroumatances concerning their developement.
So the partiaan who expends his talenta and energy for the advancement of his peculiar dootrinea to the exclusion of all other consid¬ erations merits not so mach our cenanze aa our esteem for hJs firmness and valor.
Circumstances aa well aa a strong inclination of will are that theelementa shape and determine the prinoiples, opinions and tastea of a man. Then let Napoleon in his own imagination, create circumstancea which will elevate him to the higheat pinnacle of fame, let Cromwell tear down syatema and dynasties to hand down his name to posterity, let Washiugton conqner t-vents to establish himself in the hearts of bis country-men; but let ns follow the dictates of cooscionce, and carry out those principlea which we earneatly believe to be rigbt iu the preaence of opposition and dis¬ couragement. Thia is wbat ooualitutea trno greatnesa. This is what forma a tme beroic spirit, aud elevated manliness. Tben let us have liberality of opinion in viewing the act- tiona of our fellow-men, and due deliberation iu paaaing our jadgment with a faithful con¬ sideration ofthe attending circumstances.
Uujust refleoiious on tbo character and mo¬ tivea of our neighbor are the cauaes which tend to degrade and rob the aoul of its sympatby, aud natural affections, aud develop only thoae powers which oast a abadow of selfishneaa and misery in our .future existence. Bat on the other hand sympathy with the feelings and thonghts of othera soften and elevate our characters, and bring ont tbe finer and nobler feeUngs of onr natnre, which cast a mellow light in tbe path of happiuess and true great¬ ness.

The lovely Ida could say nothing, her heart waa overfiowing, but sbe gazed on her pre¬ server with an expression which told volumea. Her father observed her eameat, loving glanoe, and began to guess the true state of affairs He was not prepared for it, and in silenoe he tumed the boat toward the ahore. They reached home with feelings far different from those they bad atarted with.
The following moming, George received a notice to meet the Judge in hla library. His heart beat wildly— what oan it mean ?
Tbe Judge had determined to put him to a severe test. As aoon aa George entered the library he commenced:
" Since becoming an inmate of my family, George, you have oonduoted youraelf in an honorable and worthy manner; performing every duty cbeerfally and neglecting none. You are now of age; and capable of doing
buaineas for yourself. I have placed $5000 ^ who stands up for principle, which he con- in tbe bankat your disposal; you can nse ' scientionsly believes tobejastandright,with- this sum as you think proper, or let it remain ' out any consideration of worldly renown and on interest, or yoa can take oharge of my office ! popular applause.

indulgence" OF OPINION.
It is a trnth ever preaent to the mind of a partiaan, that hia own well-being depends on the aaoendency of the class to which he be¬ longs. His very selfishneaa ia therefore sub- imed into a pnblic spirit; aud this public spirit is stimulated to fierce enthusiasm by sympatby, by the desire of applaase, and by the dread of infamy. The only opinion which he values ia the opinion of his fellows; aud in their opiuion devotion to the common cause is tbe most saored of duties.
On tbeother band, he is imporious, insolent aud cruel towards his brethren, on the other, his conduct is just, kind and eveu noble. His self-respect leads bim to respect all wbo belong to his own order. His internst impels him to caltivate a good understanding witb those whose prompt, strenuous and onrageons assistauce may at any moment be necessary to preserve his property and life. Tbe char¬ acter thna formed presenta two features. Tbe one mnst be regarded hy every well constitu¬ ted mind with disapprobation.
Tbe otber irresistably elicits the admiration and applause of every one. The Spartan smi¬ ting and spuming tbe wretched helot movea our disgnat and raises our greatest indignation.
Bnt tbe aame Spartan aporting with a cheer¬ ful miud and uttering hia concise jests on wbat he knowa to be hU last day in tbe pass of Thermopylae is not to be complated without admiration. To a superficial observer it may aeem atrange that so mnch ovil aud so much good should be found togetber. Bnt in trutb, the good and evil which at first sight appear almost imcompatible, are clearly connected and have a common origin. It was becanse the Spartan had been taaght to revere him¬ self as one of a race of sovereigns, aud to look down on all tbat was not Spartan as of an iu¬ ferior apeoies, that he had no fellow-feel iug and sympatby for tbe miserable aerfa who crouched before him. It waa becaose be bad been taugbt that it was tbe lowest grade of infamy that the thongbt of submitting to foreign power, or of turning bis back before an enemy, sbould ever in the last extremity cross his miud.
Tbe Indian as he treapaasea npou his white ueighhor'a righta merits the diaapprobation of every one. But his intenae attachment to hia own tribe, onatoma and manners, partakes of tbe nature of virtne. The sentiment is aiisunderatood and ill-regulated ; but still it is heroic. There mnst be some elevation of sonl in a man who loves the society of whicb he ia a member, and the leader wbom he fob lowa with a love stronger tban tbe love of liie. It ia tme he may be apparently diabouest. It ia true he may violate the rules of jnatice and equity. It ia true he may diaregard and tram¬ ple upon every principle of social and moral virtuea. Yet if his intentiona are pure aud his objecta noble, he exiles our admiration and sympathy, and our hearta are moved with affeotonate zeal in reaponae to the olaims of such noble and elevated actions.
The true hero is not always tbe one who performs apparently tfae greateat aotions In the popular eatimatiou; but the one who acts from a high senae of duty towards hia fellow- men, and carries ont theae principlea which he baa adopted as humane and honorable as wellas jnst and rigbt. The aoldier may be honored with the sweetest crown of flowers for his bravery displayed on tbe field of battle; the statesman may receive tbe highest senti¬ ments of applause and admiration for the force ofcbaracter manifested in maintaining the rigbts of human freedom ; the reformer may be revered by tbe noble and the good for his interest verified iu tbe great oanse of hnmau¬ ity ; yet all these only caat a lingering refiect¬ ion of love and aympatby over the aotions and zeal oarried out on the part of the one
