“ BEG FROIt S BEGGAR.”
“Duask Dos vkarka.’’ —Irish Proverb.
BV R.' M. tilll.XE3.
There is a thosgiit so purely blest,
That to its use I oft repair,
When evii breaks my spirit’s rest,
And pleasure is but varied care—
A thought to cild the stormiest skies.
To deck -with flowers the bleakest moor-
A thought whose home is patauise—
To charities of Poor to' Poor.
It were not for the rich tc blame.
If they, whom Fortune seems to seem
Should vent their ill content and shame
On others less or more Forlorn :
But that the veriest needs of life
Should be dispensed with freer hand,
Than all their stores and treasures rife,
Is not for them to understand.
To trivo the stranger's children bread,
, Of your precarious board the spoil—
To watch your helpless neighbor's bed,
And, sleepless, meet the morrow’s toil:
The gifts, not proffered once alone,
The daily sacrifice of years—
And, when all else to give is gone,
The precious gifts of love and tears;
What record of triumphant deed.
What virtue pompously unfurled,
Can thus refute the gloomy creed
That parts from God our living world ?
O Misanthrope ! deny who would—
O Moralists ■ deny who can—
Seeds of almost impossible good,
Deep in the deepest life of man.
Therefore, lament not, honest soul!
That Providence holds back from thee
The means thou mights so well control—
Those luxuries of charity.
Manhood is nobler, ns thou art ;
And, should some chance thy coffers fill,
How art thou sura to keep thine heart.
To hold unchanged thy loving wilt ?
Wealth, like all other power, is blind,
And bears a poison in its core, Gqgk
To taint the best, if feeble mind,
And madden that debased before.
It is the battle, not the prize.
That fills the hero’s breast with joy;
And industry the bliss supplies,
Which mere possession might destroy.
AYeijsten Matched by a Woman—In
lie somewhat famous case of Airs. Bod-
,en’s will, which was tried in the supreme
■ourt some years ago, Dir. Webster appear-
,d as counsellor for the appellant. Mrs.
jreenough, wife of Rev. William Green-
ongh, late of West Newton, a tall, straight,
pieenly looking woman, with a keen
black eye—a woman of great self-posses
ion and decision of character, was called
•o the stand as a witness on the opposite
Pule from Air. Webster. Webster, at a
glance, had the sagacity to foresee that
ier testimony, if it contained anything of
importance, would have great weight with
he court and jury. lie therefore resolv
ed, if possible, to break her np. And
when she answered the first question put
to her, “I believe,” Webster roared out,
“We don’t want to hear what you believe ;
we want to hear what you know !” Airs.
Greenough replied, “That is., just what I
was about to say, sir,” and went on with
ter testimony.
And not withstanding his repeated efforts
to disconcert her, she pursued the even
tenor of her way, until Webster, becoming
piite fearful of tlie result, arose apparent
ly in great agitation, and drawing out bis
furge snuff box, thrust bis thumb and fin
ger to the bottom, anjl carrying the “deep
( .inch’ to both nostrils, drew it up with a
pisto ; and then extracting from his pock-
■t a very large handkerchief, which flow-
mi to ids feet as he brought it to the front,
to blew bis nose with a report that rang
listinct and loud through the crowded
hall. Mr. Webster-—‘Mrs. Greenough, was
Mrs. Bodgcn a neat woman V Mrs Grocn-
• iiigli—‘I cannot give you very full infor
mation as to that, sir; she had one very
dirty trick.’ Webster—‘What’s that, mad
am V Mrs. Greenough—‘She took snuff!’
The roar of the court house was such, that
the future ‘defender of the constitution’
subsided, and neither rose nor spoke again
until after Mrs. Greenough had vacated
her chair 1 'for another witness—having am
ple time to reflect upon the inglorious his
tory of the man who had a stone thrown
on his head by a woman.
Railuoad Iron Mandfactcrd in Mary
land.—Tlie Alexandria Gazette, in noting
the arrival there, via the canal, of about
six hundred tons of iron rail, from the
Mount Savage Iron Works, near Cumber
land, Maryland, for the Orange and Alex
andria railroad, says :
We arc highly gratified that our rail
road companies are beginning to look to
the furnaces of our own, instead of those
of foreign countries, for their supply of
rails. Tlie fact that railroad iron manu
factured in our own country has a tough
ness and durability not found in the impor
ted article, should commend it everywbeie
to railroad companies. The cheapness of
the imported article has doubtless opera
ted to induce its purchase from abroad, but
whether to the advantage of the purchasers,
may well he questioned.
Miss Murray, in her hook on America,
presents to the abolitionists the following
‘poser’:
“Is there any part of Africa, the West
Indies, or South America, where three
millions of negroes are to he found as com
fortable, intelligent and religious, or as
happy, as in the Southern States?”
The same lady in another place has tlie
following paragraph :
“As to the separation of families, I see
that great pains are taken to avoid that
evil. I believe that it hardly occurs more
frequently than in England, from other
causes.”
Beatty.—Socrates called beauty a short
lived tyranny ; Plato, a privilege of na
ture ; Theophrastus, a silent cheat; The
ocritus, a delighful prejudice; Carncades,
a solitary kingdom ; Domitian said, that
nothing was more grateful; Aristotle af.
firmed, that beauty was better than all the
letters of recommendation in the world ;
Homer, that ’twas a glorious gift of nature;
and Ovid, alluding to it, calls it a favor
bestowed by the Gods.
Statue of Henry Clay.— The N. Y.
Times says that tlie sculptor Bart has fin
ished his model of the statue of Henry
Clay, ordered by the Ciay Monumental
Association of New Orleans. 1 he like
ness is said to be perfect. The model
goes from Florence to Munich, where it
will be cast in bronze, and the inaugura
tion will probably take place in New Or
leans on the anniversary of Henry Clay s
birth day in I860.
The Greatest Tricvph.—Messrs. A.
B. ’laylor & Co. of New Turk, have suc
ceeded in making a “Perfecting Press.”
This is one of the greatest achievements
of the nineteenth century, the Atlr.nt c ca
ble not expected. The Printer, describes
it thus :
To see this wonderful piece of mechan
ism in operation, one almost feelximpi ess-
od with tlie idea that it is endowed with
life, thought and reason. All the operator
has to do is to carry tlie paper within reach
of the machine and lay it on what is call
ed the “feeding table.” The machine to
work, not merely like clock work, but
more like a thing of life ;” takes the pa
per carefully, sheet by sheet, prints it on
one side, turns it over, making a perfect
“register,” prints the other side, and piles
away tlie sheets ns fast as they are printed
in a more even and perfect manner than
can be done by human hands.
Mr. J amos S. Slaughter has become as
sociated with Col. Hanleiter in tlie edito
rial management of the Atlanta “National
American,” and makes his bow to the,
readers of that journal in a lengthy salu
tatory in its last issue. We are glad to
welcome Mr. Slaughter back into the
American ranks. He was, we believe, a
friend and an advocate of tlie principles of
the American party when it was first or
ganized, hut iu 1S55 left it. and went over
to the democracy, anti was associated with
Col. W. F. Samford in the editorial con
duct of the “True Union,” a democratic
paper published in Tttskegee, Ala. He
supported Buchanan for the Presidency,
but now sees the miserable deception that
has been practiced upon the people, of the
•South, and is determined to he a party to
it no longer. Mr. Slaughter is a young
man of rare ability, a ready writer and a
fine reasoncr. We feel that we cannot
pay him a higher compliment than to re
peat what Col. Samford once said of him
—“that he was the best writer to his age,
he had ever seen.”

The Great Illinois Stit.—Wc just
have advices from Chicago that the suit of
Bates against the Illinois Central Railroad
Company for tlie possession of the valuable
depot grounds of that company lias been
decided in favor of the company. The
case was tried in the U. S. Circuit Court,
before lion. John McLane, and it is said,
the property involved, with the extensive
and costly buildings thereon, was wortli
82,000,000. The case is thus stated by a
correspondent :
“The claim of Bates was founded nnder-
a title obtained from Kinzie to the lands
which land was, by the action of tlie lake,
inundated in consequence of the United
•States’ government building a pier into
the hike for harbor purposes. The govern
ment after having sold it to Kinzie, and
received pay therefor, sold it again to the
Central Company at $45,000. Tlie com
pany claim that Kinzie’s entry of the land
at the Palestine office in 1831 was void be
cause Congress had passed a law, before
the entry was made, removing the place of
selling to another district, and that, al
though a patent was subsequently issued to
Kinzie, and the irregularity was provided
for by special act of Congress, still, the ori
ginal entry being void, the act cannot he
legalized.”

—It has already been mentioned that a
new company of capitalists had obtained
possession of this road with the view to
lay a plank track from one point to the oth
er, anti put in operation the system of
steam-wagon travel, which is now becom
ing of genera] use in England. The Na
tional Intelligencer, in noting the fact,
adds:
It is asserted that passengers can he ta
ken up at their residence in either city
and dropped at any point in the other at
81 each : and also that the running time,
ever the road will be about two hours.—
John H. Robinson. Esq., of Philadelphia,

Robinson, Esq,, of Fedricksburg, is a di
rector. It is stated tlifft C. B. Calvert,
Esq., has disposed of $1G,C00 worth of
stock he owned in the old road. Before
putting on steam-wagons it is proposed to
run stage coaches, not to occupy more
than three and a half hours in the tran
sit.
The Nashville Union says that a novel
incident occurred at tlie Marshal county
Fair, which was not laid down in the pro
gramme. A couple presented themselves
and were married in ths amphitheatre, in
the presence of thousands of spectators.—
Though no premium was offered for such
an exhibition, the parties we.it their way
looking as if each had just obtained a
prize above all price.
Tom Co RWiN.—The Louisville Democrat
says that Tom Corwin “was speaking well
ofFiilmore the other day, when Moses Cru
der (a cousin of Tom’s), and member of
Congress, inquired if the said Tom approv
ed all Fillmore's acts ; “ v es, sir,” answered
Tom. That was a hi tiff; but Moses rallied,
and asked, “Do you believe the fugitive
slave law constitutional 1” “Yes, sir,” said
Tom. “I do not,” replied Muses. “Well,”
said Tom, “you have the consolation of
knowing that your cousin differs with you.”
Some Democrats pretend to believe that
old Tom is an Abolitionist. It strikes us
that the aliove “confession of faith” will
do pretty well one of that class of poli
ticians. Wc should be glad to see a few
moi*e of the same sort.—XashriUe Banner.

Ritchie was traveling in Ireland, he pass

pallor, squalor, and raggedness. His heart
smote him, and he turned back. “If you
are in want,” said Ritchie, with some de
gree of peevishness, “why don’t you beg I”
‘••Sure it’s begging I am, ycr honor.”
“You didn’t say a word.” “Ov coorse not,
ycr honor ; bnt see how the skin is speakin’
through the holes of ray trousers! and the
hones cryin’ ont through me skin! Look
at me sunken cheeks, and the famine that’s
starin’ in rnv eyes! Man alive! isn’t it
