Paris, July 12, 1853.

l(o Journals, and will probably terminate, as I learn
from high authority, unfavorably. There is here a

The Emperor said a few days since. " I shall be care
ful not to commit a folly or act with cowaTdice."—
Very large shipments of arms are going foward to
Constantinople from Tonlon and Marseilles, but in a
very quiet manner, and the joornals, even if aware of
the fact, would not dare to publish it.
, Notwithstanding all that & said to the contrary, be
.’nssnred that tbe Emperor is no common man. He
has more courage—if more has ever been given to
- any man—than his illustrious uncle; he is as Arm as
any man on earth. reflecting, cool, and alwnya self-
possessed. Look now careful ho is of tho future. A
famine was dreaded in consequence of the preapects
of tho crops, and the government made immense pur-
• chases of grain, with a view to sell it out at reasona-
v-V' ble rates to tbe poorer classes in case or a scarcity.—
- }- No famine, however, will occur. Wheat is declining,
and the harvest is safe. In Provence, and more par
ticularly in Languedoc, it Is well secured, and they
are harvesting, and at the North tbe weather is good,
with every appearance of continuing. If so, tbe crop
will be more than an average. This will be a source
of vast wealth for France, as she will supply England
with grain and drain her of the immense amounts of
California gold which she is receiving from the United
. If England is not true to France, and Nicholas car
ries on a war against tbe Moslems, look oat for great
events. My own opinion, founded on those much
-better informed, is, the Turks will eventually consont
. to acknowledge the Emperor Nicholas as protector
of the Greek Church In Turkey. If so, it will be of
more importance to his future plans than the acquisi-

Alabama Election.
Tho result of the Alabama election is, in tho main,
favorable to the Democrats party. Winston, tho
Democmtlo nominee for Governor, has (says tho Ad
vertiser or Montgomery,) “ received largo majorities
in nearly every county of tbo State."
Tho Legislature is Democratic in both branches—
This Is Important, as there are two Uulted States
Senators to be elected.
Tho Advertiser, of tho 6th, gives ua tho following
intelligence from the Congressional Districts:
1st District—Col. P. Phillips, democrat, is elected In this
District, over E. Lockwood, Esq.. whig, by a handsome ma
jority.
2d District—It Is with mortification wo acknowledge the
fact that Capt. Abercrombie lias defeated Clopton In this
District, and that democratic rotes brought about the un
toward result.
3d District—The Hon. S. W. Harris is re-elected by a very
large majority—such an ono as esn be rcceired only by a
faithful public servant.
4th District—Gen. 8. Moore, democrat, Hale, whig, and
Smith, a sort or nondescript, but claiming to be some kind
of a democrat, were the candidates. The counties of Greene.
Sumter, Pickens. Tuscaloosa, and Fayette, compose this DIa'
trict. We have returns only from Ureene and Sumter. In
Greene the rote stands, for Moore 680. Hale 705, Smith 221 j
in Sumter. Mooro 004, Ihtle 467, Smith 261, We have strong
hopes of the election of Mooro.
6th District—Gen. Houston (domocrat) is of course
elected. He had no opposition.
6th District—Cobb, the old member, and Clement C. Clay,
Esq., (democrat) were the candidates." Wo have no returns
whatever from tho District, but believe that Clay Is eluded.
So mote it be 1
7th District—Jamos F. Dowdoll, Esq., is. without doubt,
elected, though Mr. John G. Winter having stopped the
passage of tho United States mail on the plankroad for sev
eral days, we have no news from tho upper counties or tho
District.
Esq.,
voto'
Mr. Dowdell was opposed by Thomas U. Garrett,
.politically a nondescript—but perhaps as ho did not
for Tierce and King, he might be classed as a whig.
Tho Montgomery paper puts down Philips os elec
ted in the first District. This we are led to doubt
from the accounts contained in tho Mobile Advertiser
of the 5th. That paper gives the result in all the
counties but one, showing Lockwood, Whig, 30 or 40
ahead. From the remaining county, Marengo, re
ports were con Aiding. It is a Whig county, and pro
bably givou Lockwood a majority. If so, lie la elec
ted.
In tbo second District ns we have already stated,
Abercrombie beats Clopton badly. Strango to say,
the latter who is now, and has ever been a thorough
going Democrat, runs best in Whig counties. The
Montgomery Journal, (Whig) thus uotices tho result
in several portions of the District:
Second District.—Abercrombie la believed to bo elected
In this District. Ho has lost heavily In tho whig sections,
hut it Is expected that he will carry tho strong loco coun
ties below, which have somo seven or eight hundrod major-
•y
Montgomery County—Abercrombie’s majority In this
county ts V votes—many of the old whig precincts not vot
ing for him, and somo of strong lnoo precincts going for him
almost cn matte.
Macon—'The old whig countv of Macon was tost to Aber
crombie by about 200 vote*, tho cause of this result was
the general impression that Abercrombie, as lie declared in
the Spiritof the South, was inflexibly opposed to tho re-or
gnnization of the whig party, and. consequently, in favor of
Barbour.— 1 This county, which gavoagainst us at tho last
canvass some 600 majority, now gives, it is stated, 100 ma
jority for Ab?rcrouiMo.
Whole loco or secession tickot elected.
Coyinoton.—It is claimed, will give 100 majority for
Abercrombie ; and tho strong loco counties of Coffee. Dale
and Henry. It is also claimed, will repudiate and give a largo
vote for Abercrombie.
Judging from the course of the democracy In tbe whig
sections, tills supposition may prove correct, and that they
will give large votes for Aborcromblo, who will ho ducted
by a hoivy majority.
Mississippi Bonds.
We published somo time sinco a notice of the de
cision or one of the Chancellors of Mississippi, the
effect of which was that tho State is legally and
equitably bound for tbe payment of her repudiated
indebteduess. Tho Attorney General took an appeal
from the decision of the Chancellor to the High Court
of Errors. Its judgment has been awaited with much
interest. We And the result reported in the last num
ber of the New Orleans Bulletin, as follows:
By a private letter, dated Jackson, 30th ult., we learn
that the Hlirh Court of Errors and Appeals—the Supreme
judicial tribunal of that State—havo unanimously decldpd
that Mississippi is legally bound to pay the Union Bank
bonds ; and that no action of the Legislature, or mle of the
people, cut affect the question. Each Judge delivered a
very elaborate concurring opinion, which are represented
as uosurpaaslnglyabln and convincing, covering tho whole
ground, and meeting and refuting every point rsNod In op
position. We doubt It not. No Stato in the Union has
abler Supreme Judges than Mississippi.
Wbat the amount is of the bonds, for which judgement
is thus given, we know ifot. But be It what It may,
the immense and rapidly increasing wealth of Missis
sippi *Hl. no doubt, enable her to pay it without the
slightest embarrassment. Sincerely do we hope that
Bho will pay it. For her own credit—for the credit
of the whole South, (wo say nothing of any other
portion of tbe Union) she ought to do it.
Commencement ut Athens.
We find some further accounts of the commence
ment at the State University, in tbe Athens Banner,
of Thuraduy.
Yesterday was commencement day. At an early
hour the Chapel was thronged with one of those bril
liant audiences which such occasions usually convoue.
On tho stage we observed quite a nnmber of gentle
men who havo enjoyed the highest offices in the gift
of Georgia and who are still prominent among her
most distinguished citizens. The young gentlemen
entered tho stage in tho following order :

Jas. D. Waddel, P. K. 8., Greensboro’, Ga—The

The compositions, generally, evinced a maturity of
mind and a manliness and vigor of thought which
were worthy of a graduating class in the University
of Georgia. There were one or two things which
were oot quite to our taste, but we are indisposed to
censure where we find so much we can most cheer
fully commend. Tho allusion of Mr. Cooper, tho Val
edictorian, to his deceased classmates, brought teats
to tbe eyes, and showed that tbe orator had touched
the fountains of sensibility.

*10 law was sbooesalvely broken by every party In
mi fepS#® f AllPashaj the govemorof the
city, was not only Incapable of putting any effectual
strain! upon tbs foreigners in Bmyrna harbor, but
_ad, In the end, to sufibr for the outrages they had
committed. Tbe feet* were briefly alluded to by Lord
John Russell on Monday evening tu the Huuao of
Commons, and we collect from tbe different accounts
we havo recotved that they occurred in tho following
manner:
Martin Kossta was ono of tbo Hungarian fugltivos
who escaped with Kossuth alter the capitulation at
Villugo9, and took refuge within the Turkish frontier.
Tho Porto refuaod to surrender theso refugees to the
demunda of Austria, but detained them at Klutayah
till tho following yoar, when, by putting a somewhat
liboral construction on her treaties with the Court of
Vionna, she allowed them to proceed to tho United
States, upon their promlso not to return to the Turk
ish dominions.
That engagement—if inch.there really was—was
broken by Kossta, who found means to got back to
Bmyrna; but as the Turkish Governmeut docs not
oxerciso any vigilant contrail over tbo numerous for
eigners who frequent that port, be had remaltiud
there unheeded by their authorities. The Austrian
Consul, M. du Wockbeokor, was more on the utort,
and on tho 22d of Juno ho called on tho Governor,
All Pasha, and informed him that Kossta was in tlm
E lace. All Pasha replied, that he ahould aend for
Ira and desired him to leave the country; there was,
therefore, no refosal on the part of tho Turkish au
thority to comply with tho demand of the Austrian
consul as far as it was Just.
At the very same time, however, tbo Austrian Con
sul, and the officers commanding the Austriau brig-
of-war Usaaro, had resolved, in the moat acandlous
and uiijustiilablo manner, to tnko tho law into their
own hands, and kidnap Kossta by malu force. He was
accordingly attacked in a coffee house by a party of
armed boatmen, and after vigorous defence, Kossta
was seized and carried on board tho brig. This oo-
currenco created a great sensation in the towu, hut
tho Turkish Goveruor does not seem to havo inter
posed, os ho ought to havo done, to obtain immediate
redress for such an outrage on the sovereignty of tho
Porte.
Tho American Consul, and tho commander of tho
American corvetto-of-wnr St. Louis, which happened
to cuter the harbor, exerted themselves however, In
favor of the prisoner, and endeavored to obtain his
rolcaso, on tho ground of his having an American
passport. That fact, however, was not proved, and
it is clear that, beyond tho claims of humanity, the
American bad no more legal right to Interfere m tho
matter than the Austrians hail to carry tho man off.
Hut tho violent antipathy which has for some time
past been smouldering between Austria And tho Uni
ted States easily breaks out, and this transaction is of
some Interest, as it exhibits tbe increasing readiness
or tho Americans to espouse with ardor this or that
party in the political differences of tho Old World.
The next uay three officers of tho Austriau brig
came on shore, aud proceeded to a large coffee-house
on tho English quay. They were soon attacked with
great fury by about 15 foreigners, mostly Italian ref
ugees, and one of the officers, a Baron von Hackel-
herg, having been stabbed in tbe scufllo with a poin-
ard, flunghimsolf into tbe sea and was drowned. Tho
consequences of this murderous onslaght might
havo been ntill more fatal, but, fortunately for the
Austrian officers, and to tbe honor of our own conn'
trymen, two English merchants were in the coffee
house at the time, who manfully assisted in their de
fence with the chairs and tables to bo found in tho
room.
The Turkish governor, who had neither prevented
tho return of Kossta nor his seizure by the Austriau
boat’s crew, was equally unable to punish this crime;
and these three infractions of the law were soon
followed by n fourth. Tho American captain of the
corvette St. Louis resolved, without more ado, to de
mand the surrender of Kossta from the Austrian
brig. He gave the Austrians four hours to make up
their minds, ami in tho meanwhile laid liis vessel
within n cable length of tho Ussaro, anil cleared for
action. Tho captains on both Bides belmved with
equal spirit, anu were quite ready to light it out in
Smyrna harbor, to which, as nmy lie supposed, the
Pasha aud the public strongly objected.
The Consuls, however, once more interposed bo-
tween thosAHjelligcreiitH, and it was agreed that
Kossta should be landed from the brig, and placed In
the custody of the Cousul of France, until further or
ders could lie received respecting him. The matter
was then referred to Constantinople, where M. do
lU'uck made a peremptory demand for redress, al
though it would scetn from this narrative that the
seizure of the fugivc by tho Austrians was tho flrst
blow struck in this quarrel. However, tbe Divan
was not in a condition to increase the number ot its
enemies, and it submitted to tbe demand of the Inter-
nuncio. A new governor was immediately appoint
ed to Smyrna, and an investigation was commenced
into the facts of the caso.
Between Austria and the United States tbe ques
tion is of a totally different character. In ordinary
circumstances, unless at tbo solicitation, and with the
authority, of tho Turkish Government, it is evident
that the American commander tiad no right whatever
to dictate terms to any foreign officer; but tbe state
of tbiugs we have described shows that the grossest
outrages bad been and could be committed with im
punity, and the ordinary usages of civilized nations
were apparently suspended. Nevertheless, the coer
cion applied by tbo captain of the St. Louis to the
captain of tlm ussaro was of the most direct kind, and
will probably bo regarded by tbe Court of Vienna as
ait act or hostility, for which they are entitled to de
mand reparation from President Fierce.
In tbo present state of feeling in the United States
toward Europo generally, and Austria in particular,
it Is certain that no such reparation will* be given, and
it is perhaps likely that the conduct of the officers of
tho St. Louis was directed quite as much by the desire
to make political capital tor their own Government,
as hy professional ardor or party predilections. Tho
origin of these quarrels lies, however, in the want of
power and determination on tbe part of tho Turkish
Government. A resolute governor would have flred
upon a foreign brig, the captain of which lmd dared
to kidnap a person from the land ; and he would also
have punished two foreign vessels presuming to
threaten ench other with hostilities in the port of a
third Power. In the midst of more serious dangers,
Bach embarrassing incidents as these are not wholly
insigniiicant, and they increase the difficulty of main
taining the nominal independence of an umpire which
no longer suffices for its own defence.
~TI\e Keystone Stale
A private letter to the editor, from Philadelphia,
contains a page or two in reference to this new steam
ship, now fitting out, to run between Philadelphia
anil Savannah, iu connection with the splendid steam
er State of Georgia. Wo publish that portion of tho
letter below:
•* I weut down this morning to see tho now steamer,
the State of Georgia’s consort, now lying at Washing-
*’ y. SI10 * *
ton Wharf, receiving her machinery. She has been
very aptly christened after the State in which she is
built—the noblo old Keystone State, and with tho
aid of the 8tute of Georgia. I treat will maintain per
petual feelings of good will and amity between tbe
Empire State of the South, and Pennsylvania, nnd
promote that rapid interchange of courtesy and com-
nmdity, which will make Pennsylvania and Georgia,
but friendly neighbors.
“ The dimensions of the Keystone State arc as
follows : Length of deck 235 feet; breadth of beam
35 feet; depth of hold 22 feet; tonnage 1,400 tons.
*• She will comfortably Accommodate from 150 to
165 passengers. Vaughn A Lynn are her builders;
Cox A Lynn ship Joiners, and Merrick A Son engine
builders. Her engine, a splendidly finished piece of
mechanism, is of 500 horse power, with cylinder of
eight leet Btroke. The engine Is furnished with the
Pinion patent condenser, similar to that now in use
on board the steamship Augusta, of the New York
and 8avannah line. The paddle-wheels havo a diam
eter of 30 feel—0 feet 0 Inches in face—and tbo boil-
era are modelled after those in tho steamship State or
Georgia. Mr. Solon Farrar, an experienced and skill-
fill engineer, will havo cbnrgc of the engine.
“ For convenience of arrangement, and elegance of
model, I have not yet seen the Keystone's superior;
she is very similar in model to tho Illinois, plying be
tween New York and Chagres, and said to bo tho
fastest steamer that Baila out of Now York. The title
to this distinction, as regards Philadelphia, has yet to
bo won, but the friends of tho new steamer have high
hopes of her winning it, and no effort has been spared

“ In her Interior arrangements much pains have
been taken to secure thorough ventilation ; nnd tho

'• Tho Keystone State will be commanded by Capt.
Robert Hardio, who lately visited Savannah ns pro
tem commander of tho State of Georgia. The Captain
comes exactly up to my beau ideal of what a steam
ship commander should be. Ho is qualified for his
post by an oxperlonco of many years, and is ono of
thoso jovial, jolly, good nfttured Captains, to whom
storm nnd calm are alike. When I tell you that he is
an acknowledged favorito cf the ladies, you will see
that tho Cnptain is just the man for tho decks of a
steamer. For U you have ever been in a gale. In com
pany with a score or two of ladies, yon can bear testi
mony to tbe fact, that a Captain in such cases is the
mainstay; the ladies look upon the Captain in a storm
os little Inferior to Old Neptnne himself. Captain
Hardie, is undoubtedly a little inferior to that distin
guished old Salt; but if not abfo to rule the waves,
he knows well howto ride over them, which is suffi
cient for all practical purposes..? The Keystone Stato,
with Capt. Hardie commanding, will not be slow in
winning her way to public favor. '
" Tho new steamer is expected to mako a trial trip

—. ——.. ..jy,
Editor, I lovod my husband when I married him,
because ho had, by unwearied assiduity, succeeded,
In gaining my alfootlona. But had * choice' been my
privilege, I certainly should not have chosen him.
As I look at him in his easy chair, sluoping before
the fire, a huge dog at his root, and a ulpo peeping
out of one of the tnauy pooketa of hU sUoatlug coat,
I can but think hew different he is from what I would
have chosen. My first pouobont was for a fashionable
clergyman, a perfect Adonis; bo was a flatterer, and
cared but little foV me, though I have not yet forgot
ten tbo pang or dosertion. My next was o|burrister;
a young man of Immense talent, smooth, insinuating
manners; but ho, too, aflor talking, walking, danc
ing and flirting, left mo in tho lurch I Either of thou:
would havo been my 1 choice 1 lmd I so chosen ; but
my nrosdut husband elioso me, aud therefore I
married him ; aud this, 1 cannot help thinking, must
bo the way with half the married folia of my acquiu-
There is both sonnd sense and troth in this ; bnt is
It not better that men Bbould chose than that they
should bo chosen? And is not our correspondent
man or tho clover barrister ? Men are proverbial
ly Inconstant; and, after uiarrl&ge, when the troublo
and inconvenience of children began to be felt, and
whon (tbo most trying tirao of all,) the wife begins
to neglect her husband for her children, unless there
was originally a very strong attachment on the hus
band’s Bide, there is little change of happiness.
A wife’s affection, on the contrary, always I
sea after marriage ; and even If Indifferent before, no
well disposed woman can help loving the father of
her children. Children ion her aide, are a baud of
union, and though sho may appear, for them, to neg
lect some of thoso little attentions which mon seem
naturally to expect, it is only because tbo child is the
more helpless being of the two, and tho true woman
always takes tim side ot thoso who are more feeble.-
It is a strango but melancholy fact that when young
girls fancy thomsolvoa in love, they are seldom if
ever ham
Tho fact is, in most cases, they Hod tho husband they
have chosen quito a different person as an individual,
from tbo imaginary object be appeared as a lover.
The iumgiuatiun of most girls is strongor than the
judgment; and as soon as tbo first Idea ot love is
awakened in a female heart, tbo imagination Is «et to
work to fancy a lover, nnd all possible perfections are
assembled together in tbe young girl’s mind to endow
tho object of hor secret Idolatry. The first man whoso
appearance and manners attract a girl on her en
trance into society, is generally invested by hor with
the halo of tiieso thoughts, and she fancies herself
violently in love without tho least knowledge of the
man sho supposes herself in love with. No wonder
then, that if she marries she is miserable. Tbe ob
ject of her lovo has vanished, never to return; and
she finds herself chained for life to a man she de
tests, because she fancies she bus been deceived in
him.
On tho other hand, the man who, witli very par
donable vanity, fancied himself loved for his own
merits, and who waa perfectly unconscious of the se
cret delusions of the girl, becomes, when he finds
her changed after marriage, quite indignant at her
caprico. Tho friends and relatives 011 both Hides
share in the same feelings—" what would she have?"
they cry—" she married for lovo and for the conse
quences."
The consequences are, indeed, in such cases, gen
erally sad enough. When tho first delusion is dissi
pated. and tho truth, in all Its hurd and stern reality,
comes forth from the veil that has been thrown
around it, both parties feel indignant at the false po
sition In which they find themselves. Mutual re
criminations take place, ench accusing tho other of
deceit and ingratitude; while the apparent injustice
of thoso accusations, which is felt by each party al
ternately, first wounds tbe feelings, and then, if re
peated, rankles lathe wound till it becomes incura
ble.

Terrible Accident at Sharon Sprlii|
We learn by.a private letter from Sharon Springs
that during tbe Btorin on last Saturday night, a stago
containing eight nassengers, was precipitated into a
deep ravine on the edge of tbe road near that place.
The writer says:
“ Tbo night was very dark. Tbo late rains had
made the bunk of the ravine soft and slimy, and tho
driver could uot see his way, lor ho lmd no lantern
The wheels slid down in this soft place, aud to get
out tho driver whipped his homes; tkoy gave the
stage a sudden jerk, which tore out the ring-bolt, and
separated the body of tbe coach from tbe box and tbo
horses. It rolled over three times before it reached
tbe bottom, a distance of cigbty-six feet. Thu bot
tom of tbe ravine was covered with mud and stones,
but fortunately there was no great depth of water.”
The names of all tho passengers are not mentioned,
but among tbo number were Mr. and Mrs. lloppin,
their children, nnd nurse. Mr. Hoppin had several
ribs broken, and it is doubtful whether he can recov
er. Tho nurse was also badly injured, but it does not
appear that tbe rest were severely hurt. They were
nil taken to Parker’H hotel, where they were attend
ed by several physicians.
On tho same evening Bevcral persons were stunned
at Sharon Springs by lightning, and a son of Dr. Bed
ford had one of his arms temporarily paralyzed.—N.

Professor Farndny Outdone.
Some time ago the distinguished Eugl>h chemist,
Professor Faraday published a very "lull and parti
cular ’’ statement in explanation or the table-turning
“mystery," proving it to be no mystery at all. A
paper recently established in New York goes fur
•ahead of that gentleman, however, in the way of ex
plaining alleged mysteries, for it applies the follow
ing intelligible exposition ot the cause of the “ spirit
rappings” which at onetime deluded and sent to the
lunatic asylum so muny victims:
Mysterious "rappings "proceed from tho sub-de
rangement and liypereffervesccnce of small conical
glandular bodies situated heterogeneously in the ro-
tundum of the inferior accphalnrysts ; which, by com
ing in unconscious contact with the etherization of
the fivo superior processes of the dorsal vert-braj.also
results in "ropings,” by giving rise to spontaneous
combustion with certain abuormal evacuations of
mnltitudinous echinnrhyncu* bicomis, situated in va
rious abdominal orifices. Tbe raps occur from the
ebulUions or the former in certain temperamental
structures : and the tips from the thoracic cartila-
g inous dnets, whenever their contents are compressed
y cerebral inclinations.
Tho lslnnd of Madeira.
The National Intelligencer publishes tho following
as an extract from a letter, written by a gentleman
who is at present on tho Island of Madeira, having
gone thither for tho restoration of his health. It is
dated June 22d:
There will be no wine this yoar. I am porsunded
it will be necessary to root np nil the vines and get
fresh cuttings from abroad, so that many years may
elapso ere good wine bo made there again. I fear the
glory of tho place has departed : certainly for a sea-
non. Tho peopio can only bo relieved by emigration.
Without thin outlet Ivclng opened for them, hundreds
will perish. The letters that have lately appeared in
the papers will prevent much more aid being sent
from this country, unless vigorous efforts be made to
counteract the false impressions, and put before the
publio the plain facts : that tho means which chiefly
supported the population of tbe island (125,000,) have
been swept away suddenly, completely ; that tiie pro
duce ot the vinoynrds supported the peopio for nine
months out of tho twelve ; that there is no immediate
means of restoring the vines to health ; to root them
up seems tho Only plan and plant fresh cuttings, in
volving tho necessity of waiting for at least three
years erotbey can get any return.
Hour Mach Dili lie Leave I
Tho question is asked concerning tho property of
every rich man that dies, and it was answered very
happily by Clools, who was executor upon the estate
of the late Mr. Snodgrass. His neighbor. Mr. Nailrod,
was an exceedingly inquisitive mon, and it was his
pride that he knew as much, almost of tho afikirs of
people of bis neighborhood, as they did themselves.
But Mr. Snodgrass bad never been communicative,
and all that he could glean of his circumstances was
from tbe guesses and speculations of tbe outsiders.—
The day after Ws neighbor had been pot Into the
earth, Nailrod visited Cloets, and with an expecting
face, began to question him. Says he. "Mr. C!oots,
if it is not improper—I wouldn’t wish to ask tho
question If U la the least improper, nor expect you
to answer it—will you tell mo how ranch my friend
Snodgrass loft 7” " Certainly," raid Cloots, I don't
see the least impropriety in yonr asking, and am
perfectly willing to answer it. Ho left every eent
ne was worth in tbo world, and didn’t take a eopper
with him.” Nailrod felt as small as s pnmp tack, and
went out.—Boston Post.

aged and poor parents, and become responsible for
