HoNo iiEu be woman ! Shame on those vvho would speak to her, or of her, in other than terms of kindness and respect. A gallant cotemporary thinks that this world would be hardly worth living in, were it deprived of woman. Listen to the rap- shody:—Who would remain in a garden from which the flowers have been taken, or in a grove from which the birds have departed, or beneath a sky that the sweet stars had forsaken.' Let cynics prattle as they may, our existence here without the pres¬ ence of the other sex, would be only a dark and cheerless void. The light, the smiles and afTections of woman, are the low bow of beauty and promise, which spans the life of man from his cradle to his grave.
Another writer says, George Chaiining always cherished the tenderest love for the humble mother that bare him. So soon as his resources would per¬ mit, he made ample provision for her support; and for years afterwards he entered Parliament, and even when a foreign Ambassador, he wrote her a weekly epistle, breathing the kindliest affection. Though he could never elevate her taste and associations above the connections of her youth, he used to throw aside the cares of office, that he might visit iter and the humble cousin.-; with whom she dwelt, at Bath, and there, when in tbe zenith of his fame, would walk out vvith his plebeian relatives, and re¬ ceive the homage of his lordly visitants at that fash¬ ionable place of resort, in their company. This makes him a noble man. He delighted in literary pursuits—was a brilliant es.sayist and wrote Latin and English verses vvith much grace and beauty.
How entwined around the heart of the best and greatest men. are the thousand recollections of ma¬ ternal love! In looking back through the deceit of years, to the first years of life, the rosy spring¬ time of existence, the soul beholds a mother's form shining like an augel in Paradise. Around her clusters all that is beautifiil and holy—she is the child's divinity: and the memory of the man recog¬ nizes and recalls all that was heavenly and pure ill past life, by   reverting to   the   dear   thought of
""llniartine, in his '= Uyage en Orient;' touchingly .averts to his mothers teaching. '• My mother, he .uy..' liud received from her mother a handsome Bible of Boyoumont from which she taught me to read when I was young. This Bible had engrav¬ ings of sac.e<l subjects, on nearly every page. When I had read a page with tolerable correctness, my niolher allowed me to .see a picture; and placing li.e book upon her knees she explained the subject '•¦ .i,e, as a recompense for my progress. She was '"*'^t tender and affectionate by nature, and theim- l'"-^>i'.eness and love, which still resounds in my i^^iur after that voice has, alas, been longmtife!
Uliat boin wonder is it that the child who list- -n.i to .uch teachings, from such a teacher,should i'ave Leronie the great and good man Lamartine ' *'ui own Washington liad likewise such u mother, •ner can the soli, gentle whisper of a mothers -^"ily teaching be forgotten—never can her influence t-^ uver-rated. Well answered Madame Campan, '" lhe question. • What is needed to educate a na¬ tion '   when  ihe  wuely  replied in   oin'  word—
'-MuXHZBS."'
There is a pleasant little village called the Trappe, situated in a most delightful part of onr State, abont 28 miles from Philadelphia, on the main road leading to Reading. Its rural beauty, the salubrity of the air, its vicinity to tbe romantic Schuylkill, the intelligence of its inhabitants, all unite in making it as lovely a 'spot as the heart of man could desire. Not long since a question arose as to the origin ot its name, and many were the strange interpretations given to its cognomen, an<l genealogy, .'^onie have asserted, and roundly too, that it took its name from a house of doubtful character, into which litrangers were cnlrcipped, murdered, and robbed. To this version some cogent arguments have been adduced, and if it were not for proof in our possession of the real origin, this one I'Diild be sustained by many facts in relation to such a house. Another version is given of an old settler being lost in the snow, and afterward found ill one of the ravines trapped by underwood, &c. &c.
As the true origin is somewhat curious, we send it to you for publication. Upwards of an hundred years ago there stood a small house at the foot of the hill, which runs back from the now main road, kept by an old man an intimate acquaintance of the Rev. Mr, Muhlenberg,* who had located, or rather was in the habit of preaching there to the few inhabitants, as well as to the settlers in various parts ol the State. He made this little hotel his resting place, and if is stated by old people, residents of the place, that letters vvere received from the old country to his address, post-marked '•At the Tnppe, Provideme, A'merica " This house wag built upon a little rising ground, some few feet above the level of the road, leading to which were THHEK ;:teps, it had iieither sign or signal, butwas universally called the house of steps, and the Ger¬ mans, perhaps Mr. IMuhlenberg himself, gave it the naine ol the 'Trf.ppe, ' meaning steps. In progress of lime the haish sound of Treppe was softened down to Trappe, and by which name it has been called and known ever since. It is invariably writ¬ ten Trap, and thirty years ago, if it had been spell¬ ed or written Trappe, one-half of the peo})le in that section of the country would not have known its locality. Hence it is tliat merchants and others have fallen gradually into the custom, and we find it so written even to tlie pre.sent day, nor has the old (lerman termination of sound been heard since the days of old Patriatich Muhlenberg.
'Phere is one other-curious fact connected with this place worth relating. Thc private seal ofour worthy Governor, Francis R. Shunk, had on it the impress of three steps, with this motto "Ion Eh- STKiGE,'' raise yourself and when we take into con¬ sideration that he was born at the Trappe, the true origin of its name cannot be doubted, nor will we be convinced it has any other until
''¦ Thou can'.st rail the seal from off my bond,"' which is here annexed in proof of our position.
Apart from the curious coincidence of the three steps being engraved upon the seal of Governor Shunk, there is a voice in the •'¦ Ich Erstcii^c.'^ which his high station makes almost prophetic. It may, for aught we know, be the same insignia
" His grandsire wore about his neck In three seal rings."—Shak.
And probably possess a charm which will serve as an amulet against
" The guilt, both of deceit and malice."
*The reader will understand this tobe the grand¬ father of Henry A. Muhlenberg, deceased.
Madame Liamartiuc.
The wife of Lamartine is an English woman, whose maiden name is Birch. We learn from the Manchester Guardian, that, while no longer in the bloom of youth, she became passionately enarmored of Lamartine from a perusal of his " Meditations." Becoming apprised, from a newspaper statement, of the embarrassed condition ofhis aflairs, and the necessity of calling a meeting of his creditors, she immediately wrote to him with an offer of the loan of the whole of her fortune unconditionally, and with the smallest possible reserve of her own im¬ mediate wants. It appears that Lamartine was touched at this proof of generosity, that he imme¬ diately set out to throw himself at the feet of his benefactress. Believing that such unsought interest could have its mainspring in one sentiment alone, he chivalrously resolved to make an offer of his hand and heart. The pair were soon after married, the fortune of the bride amply repairing every breach which youthful extravagance had made in that of her husband. She is remarkable for her religious enthusiasm, and is very popular with the priest, from whose influence, it is said Lamartine has derived a good deal of support.—Boston Trans-

Progress of tlie Soul.
We wonder, indeed, when we are told that one day we shall be as the angels of God. I apprehend that as great a wonder has been realized already on the earth. I apprehend that the distance between the mind of Newton and a Hottentot, may have been as great as between Newton and an angel. There is another view still more striking. This Newton, who lilted his calm, sublime eye to the heavens, and read, among the planets and the stars, the great law of the material univer.se, was, Ibrty or fifty years before, au infant, wiihout one clear perception, and unable to distinguish his nurses arm from lhe pillow on which he slept. Howard, too, vvho, under the strength of an all-sacrificing benevolence, explored the depth of human suffer¬ ing, was, forty or fifty years before, an infant, whol¬ ly absorbed in himself, grasping at all he saw, and almost breaking his little heart with fits of passion when the idlest loy vvas withheld. Has not man already traversed as wide a space as separates liiin from angels?
Hfe^vspapers.
A man eats up a pound of sugar, and the plea¬ sure he enjoyed has ended; but the information he i^ets from a newspaper is treasured up in the mind, to be enjoyed anew, and to be used whenever occa¬ sion or inclination calls for it. A newspaper is not the wisdom of one man, or tvvo men; it is the wis¬ dom of the age, and of past ages too.
