Have you met min'? Burley, broad
shouldered, a little careless, both in
dress and gait, as if conscientiously op
posed to precision of any kind ; and his
face—from the shining curve of the
smooth-shaven chin to the gleam of gol
den spectacles that sit astride his nose—
beaming with exhaustless good humor.
About 5 P. M. is his hour, when you
can generally see him headingasifhome
ward, and carrying thitherward a brown
paper enveloped parcel. From long fam
iliarity with this feature of his personal
ity, we had come to designate his other
wise anonymousness as “ the man with
the bundle.’’
It may have been imagination on our
nart, but as we met him the other cold
fternoon, his face seemed so absolutely
ladiant with the heat of genial benevo*
lence that we thought the thermometer
at he corner of Milk-street went up two
degrees as he passed. We determined
to maks an effort to know more about
him.
To-day our desire was gratified. Turn
ing into Marsh’s to purchase the goose
quill now between our fingers, (we can’t
abide mineral pen) who should be stand
ing ac the counter, closing, at the same
instant, the lid of a magnificent writing
case and a bargain for its purchase, but
our radiant faced friend.
“ To what address shall we send this ?”
said the clerk, with a tone indicating ex
treme respect.
“Nowhere,” responded the pmchaser;
I always carry my own bundles.”
“ Young man,” repled the other, I al
wavs love to take something home at
night to show my wife and children that
1 has n’t forgotten them while at my busi
ness, and I wouldn’t give a pin to make
anybody a present without I carriad it
into the house myself. I want to see
’em take it. Besides, sir, 1 never allow
ed myself to be bothered by sending
things home for me that I can carry my
self. 1 began life by lugging about par
cels as a dry goods man’s boy, and
many’s the weary mile of sidewalk I’ve
trudged to carry a yard of ribbon or a
paper of pins to somebody too proud or
too lazv to carry it for themselves. I
haven’t forgot my old thoughts, and
what’s more, though times have changed
with me since then, I ain’t ashamed to be
seen in the streets with a bundle.”
“ Yes, sir, but this is heavy.”
“ No matter, I’m strong,” and out he
went with such a glow in his face that
one could imagine it lighted up the now
dun side-walks rods ahead, as a locoino
tive-burner illuminates its track.
Another well known street face passed
him in the duoi coining in. Purchasing
a congress knife, the new-comer said in
a hard dictatorial tone, ‘ send it to my
home (No. fifteen hundred and some
thing Washington street) immediately :
1 shall want it as soon as 1 get home.’
‘ Two dilferent men,’ suggested we, as
the clerk closed the door after him.
‘Very,’ was the reply. ‘The man
with the bundle is Mr. , the honest
owner of hundreds of thousands, and there
never was a subscription paper y r et that
didn’t yet his name for something hand
some. The other man failed last week
—all there was of him to fail—and isn’t
worth his salt; but he had rather take
the commercial disgrace of a failure at
any time than the social disgrace of be
ing seen in the streets with a bundle.
Two different men indeed ! We shall
take off our hat the next time we meet
Mr on the sidewalk. Long may
he live, and carry bundles to make peo
ple happy.— Cont/regationalixt.
Angel Visitant*.
BY JOHN EDWARD CHALMERS.
Though angels long have left this earth.
Their shadows still remain,
Where all that’s pure and good have birth.
They seem to live again.
In homes and hearts they play their parts.
Where love and concord dwell,
While o’er life's dreams they cast their
And weave a magic spell. [beams.
Yes, earth has angels of her own.
And not a few, I ween,
Though angels’ visits, men are told.
Are few and far between.
1 n every land where’er we stray.
‘.Mong those we chance to greet.
When least we think, perhaps, we may
With some bright angel meet:
For while full well the eyes can tell
When beauty passes by,
Vet angels may pursue their way.
Unheeded by the eye.
Oh ! yes, a veil may oft conceal
An angel bright and fair,
Whose virtues would adorn a crown.
And shed a lustre there.
Dstiiiei Webster’s Parent*.
We all believe, in some way, our traits
are connected with those of our ancestors. We
know it is so physically, and believe it to be
so mentally. We reason partly from analo
gy, because we see it in the brute creation.
We have gained a great deal of knowledge a
bout ahorse when we knew from what ‘blood’
he sprang. This feeling, to be sure, is not
so strong with us as in Europe, where ti
tles and position in society are hereditary,
and so much often depends on an accurate
knowledge of one’s ancestry. Yet even here
it is strong, particularly when the individual
concerned has become eminent. For this
reason, all that relates to Mr. Webster's pa
rentage is peculiarly interesting, for we be
lieve that with posterity he will be regarded
as the great intellectual giant of the age.—
He himself does not seem to have troubled
himself very much about the matter, though
he did some, for he once employed John Cof
fin, Esq., of Newbury, to trace it back for
him. At this time, according to Mr. Collin,
he was mistaken in the name of his grand
father.
It may not be generally known that both
of Mr. Webster’s parents were born in the
immediate vicinity of Newburyport; all
their nobility, that of nature. His father,
Ebenezer Webster, was born at East King
ston, N. H., about ten miles from Newbur
ryport. From the poverty of his parents, as
we suppose, he was adopted by an influen
tial and wealthy man, Maj. Ebenezer Ste
phens. Mr. Stephens owned a large tract
of unsettled land in New Hampshire, in a
place called Stevenstown, from himself, since
called Salisbury. A portion of this he gave
to young Webster, who went there and set
tled down at the’ age of twenty-two. He
built him a log cabin, in which he lived for
seven years. Mr. Webster thus speaks of
his father’s early condition— C A man who is
not ashamed of himself, need not be asham
ed of his early condition. It did not hap
pen to me to be born in a log cabin, raised
among the snow drifts of New Hampshire,
at a period so early, that when the smoke
first arose from its rude chimney, and curl
ed over the frozen hills, there was no simi
lar evidence of a white man’s habitation be
tween it and the settlements on the rivers of
Canada.
All his life he remained poor, and as is
well known, was obliged to mortgage his
little farm to raise the money to educate his
children. Yet tho’ poor, he was honored,
useful and respectful. He was always one
of the most prominent citizens of his town,
discharging its most responsible offices year
after year. He served oftee in the legisla
ture of his State, as Representative and Sen
ator. He was a member of the Convention
called to a form a State Constitution, and
also of the one called to consider the pro
posed United States Constitution. He was
appointed, in 1791, Judge of the Court of
Common Pleas for Hillsborough county,
which office he held till his death. He was
a Christian, too, active in all the affairs of the
Church.
His revolutionary services were very im
portant, extending through the whole war.
At first a Captain, he was promoted in 1784
to the rank of Colonel. He was a brave,
trusty and reliable officer, and engaged in
many situations of great responsibility. He
was in the array when the news came of
the birth of his son,Daniel. Calling to his
brother in law, Stephen Robinson, he said,
1 Here, Stephen I have another boy at home,
get a gallon of rum and we will he merry.’
This, of course, was before temperance days,
when even good Christians thought it no
harm to use a little stimulant to help keep
the heart cheerful.
It is said on one occasion, Captain Web
ster was encamped with General Stark, near
the British, a little stream alone dividing
them —-the British, however, in much great
er force. A storm of great length and se
verity arising, the Americans found shelter
in a large barn. When fair weather came,
it appeared that the British had disappeared.
Ttiis seeming like an interposition of Provi
dence, someone proposed prayers.
‘D—n the prayers,’said a soldier, ‘let
those pray who want to.’
General Stark was so mnch incensed at
the language, that he struck the soldier over
the shoulder severely with his sword,saying
that the name of God should not be profan
ed in this army. They all went into the
barn, when he called on Captain Webster to
lead in prayer, who, mounted upon hay
stack, prayed with such fluency, that, as
Stephen Bohonnon said, ‘ there never was
so much blubbering at a camp meeting.’
Judge Webster’s personal appearance was
very fine, to which his son often alluded in
terms of pride. He was tall, stout, very
dark, with keen, black eyes, and a power
ful voice—all well known characteristics of
| Dauiel. He died in 1890, when his son, but
for whom his own memory would, even
now. have become dimmed, was still a young
man, unknown to fame.
Judge Webster’s second wife, the mother
of Daniel, was Abigail Eastman, who was
born in Salisbury, directly opposite Newbu
ryport. She was a tailoress hy trade, go
ing round from house to house, as her ser
vices were required. Her father was the
owner of a small f>um. The father came
from Wales, and first settled in Salisbury.—
She had two brothers, Ezekiel and Dauiel,
for whom she named two of her children.
The story of the courtship is thus told :
Soon after Mr. Webster became a widower,
which was in March, 1774, he came to East
Kingdom, his old home, on a visit A lady
friend said to him, ‘ why do you not get
married, again ?’ ‘ I would,’ he replied, ‘if
I knew the right one.’ ‘ I can tell you, she
said, ‘ one will just suit you —Abigail East
man. of Salisbury, about as black as you
are.’ He mounted his horse and went to
Salisbury. Reaching the house, a young j
woman came to the door, whom he asked if j
Abigail Eastman lived there. She told him |
she was the one. when he handed her the
letter of introduction he had brought She
invited him in, and before he left, the bar
gain was made. They were married Octo
ber 13th % 1774.
Both Mr. Webster’s parents were persons
of fine physical development and strong good
sense, inured to toil, and belonging to tho
common ranks of life. No patrician blood
flowed in their veins. They seemed to
spring up like the fabled heroes of old from
the earth, gave birth to a son by whom they
have been more honored than if they could
have traced their cost of arms through a line
of a thousand senseless and titled ancestors,
and died. Intellectually the race is dead.—
No son of Mr. Webster inherited more than
the name, and in fact we, as a rule, never
look for a great mans son. Do families have
floods and ebbs of greatness as the tides ?
and is this the intellect of a great man the
accumulation of successive generations?—
Many interesting questions suggest them
selves on this subject of genealogy, which
we must reserve for a subsequent article.—

T!i<* of Love.
“ Give me,” I said,, “ that ring,
Which on thy taper finger gleams :
Sweet thoughts t<> me ’t will bring.
When summer sunset’s beams
Have faded o’er the western sea.
And left me dreaming, love, of thee!”
“Oh, no! ” the maiden cried;
“ This shining ring is bright, hut cold :
That bond is loosely tied
Which must be clasped with gold !
The ring would soon forgotten be:
Some better gift I'll give to thee;”
“ Then give me that red rose,”
Said I, “which on thy bosom heaves,
In ecstacied repose,
And droops its blushing leaves :
If thou wouldst have me think of thee,
Fair maiden, give the rose to me!”
“ Oh, no,” she softly said,
“ 1 will not give thee any flower;
This rose will surely fade—
It passes with the hour:
A faded rose can never he
An emblem of my love to thee ! ”
“ Then give me hut thy word —
A vow of love—t were better yet.”
I eried: “ who once has heard
Such vows can ne’er forget!
if thou wilt give this pledge to me.
Nor ring nor rose I’ll ask of thee!
“ Oh. no! ” she said again;
••For spoken vows are empty breath,
W hose memory
When passion perisheth:
If e’er L lose my love for thee,
My vows must all forgotten bo! ’’
“Then what,” I asked, “wilt thou,
Oh dearest! to thy lover give ?
Nor ring nor rose nor vow
May 1 from thee receive;
And yet, some symbol should there lie
To typify thy love for me! ”
Then dropped her silvery voice
Into a whisper soft and low:
“Here, take this gift—my choice—
The sweetest love can know! ”
She raised her head all lovingly,
And smiling, gave—a kiss to me!
Go in, Tige ! —The Geneva Gazette
is responsible for the following;
A countryman, the owner of a large,
but usually goodnatured dog, drove into
town a few days since. Near the rail
road crossing, on Water street, ‘Tiger’
fell into bad company, and a regular
muss ensued. Taken suddenly, and al
most unawares, the countryman’s dog
seemed hardly to comprehend whether it
w.is a ‘ free fight’ in earnest, or only the
rough sort of play of village ‘ hounds,’
until he found himself in a ‘ throat to
mouth’ contest with a regular fighting
character: in the shape of a trained bull
dog, and getting the worst of it. His
master, however, by this time compre
hended the nature of the muss, and
springing from the wagon, caught the
bull dog by his ‘ narrative,’ and endeav
ored to separate the combatants.
‘ I.et that dog alone, or i’ll few you over
the bead!’ growled a rough and excited
looking customer standing by, who proved
to be the owner of the bull.
• Oh, then you want ’em to fight, do ye ?’
ejaculated homespun, dropping the end ; aDd
then, at the top of his voice, shouted, ‘ go in
Tige ?’
And Tige did I go in.’ Instantly the ti<&
of battle was turned. Tige secured and ffto
making good use of his vantage ground,
when Bull’s owner suddenly became con
verted to a peace-maker. Suitmg the ac
tion to the idea, he made a fecit to release
his dog from the vice-like jaws of Tiger.
‘ Let that dog alone, or I’ll lam you over
the head!’ shouted the countryman ; and he
straightened up and swelled out to such
HO. 41.
huge proportions that 1 Rock street’ desisted,
terror-stricken at the menace.
Tiger pursed his work in hand until the
piteous 1 ky-yi!’ of his assailant seemed to
produce pity in the dog’s heart of the form
er, for he relaxed his hold and the latter
slunk away, with the appearance of three
legs behind.
As the countryman jumped into his wa
gon, he called out to bull-dog’s master—

Strolling down the streets of St. Louis, a
few months since, I observed a stalwart six
footer from Pyke, who was evidently a lit
tle by the head, gesticulating violently to an
appreciative crowd, and duly acquainting his
hearers what was the matter with himself
and his respected paternal. After his dis
course had been some time continued, one
of the guardians of the law thought he could
tell what ailed our friend, and undertook to
cut his story short. At the time I left, old
Pyke had made a good fight, and had rath
er the better of the Charley, who to use
Pyke’s words; was ‘ a gittin chawed up bad’
—that was ‘ what’s the matter with him ;’
but the following eloquence was safely got
off before the interruption took place:
1 1 do allow Pop he’s jest the greatest man
ever ye sec: he’s naterally a little backered ;
but you je3t take Pop and rile him up some,
and thar ain't no man as kin talk more nor
what Pop kin talk. Thar is them as thinks
thar ain’t no site into him ; but I tell you he
won’t allow none of his children to take no
advantage onto him, and es they any on ’em
skites things at his head, thar ain’t no man
as will skite ’em back at ’em quicker’n what
Pop ’ll skite ’em back.
‘ Uncle Ben is some heftier nor what Pop
is, and he’s a drefful ugly cuss—that’s what's
the matter with him. Oncethe got riled at
Pop, and ’lowed he’d lick him. Wal, he pi
rooted round for die old man, and he see
him nigh the woods, and he peeled for him,
he did. Pop he kep kinder quiet, like, tell
Ben got dost, and then he kitched the back
hitch onto Ben, and he throwed him bad ;
and arter that he tied the critter to a tree,
and kep him thar tell it got dusky, like, a
grinnin at him ; and when he was set loose,
you never see no man look no foolisher nor
what Ben looked. Oh, no! es ever ye get
in on Pop, and try fur the in turn onto him
thar ain’t no man will throw yer quicker nor
what Pop will throw yer.
1 Aunt Bets she tried to skeer the ole man
oncet. She made up a gost, she did, outen
a piller—turnippy hands aud bread head,
and she put it in Pop’s bed, and watched tell
she got most asleep fur to hear him holler;
but he jest didn’t holler, nary time—so she
jest peeked in, fur she was afeered he was
skeert so bad he couldn’t But the ole man
was all right, he was; he had eat up the
critter’s head and hands, and thar he laid,
fast asleep, on the cuss's chest Pop alius
alowed he got the best of Bets and the ole
gost, but Bets she kep mum—that’s what
was the matter with her. You never heerd
nobody keep no mummer about gostses nor
what Bets kep about gostses.
‘ Wal, thar ain’t no use a spitten round
here. My name’s Berloo. I’m Pop’s son,

picked a heap outside, I hev. Thar ain’t no

all the way down—jest feel of my back.—

An Affecting Incident. —A circumstance
occurred a few days since, says the Gospel
Banner, at the funeral of a little babe in New
Sharon, remarkably cheering and suggestive.
The little one all beautifully robed for the
grave, was laid in its coffin on the morning
of its burial. The weeping friends placed in
its little hand a small bouquet of flowers, a
mong which was an unopened rosebud of
the ‘ Rose of Sharon.’ The lid was then
placed upon the coffin, and the funeral ser
vices performed. When after the lapse of
not more than three hours, the cofiin was
opened again, and the friends gathered round
to look upon it for the last time, that bud had
become a full blown rose, while grasped in
the hand of death. It seemed as though a
voice came up from those beautifully sealed
lips, saying, 1 Weep not for me; though bro
ken from the parent stem I am blooming in
the Paradise of God. Millions of infant souls
compose the family above.’
Still More So. —The editor of the New
Orleans Advocate has this incident about
the ravages of the yellsw fever in that city
related to him by one of the Methodist pas
tors: ‘The preacher was called a few days
since to attend the funeral of a young man.
Before his sickness, he was a stout, buoyant,
manly youth. He was from the State of
Main, and been here but a short time. He
was attacked by yrilow fever, and soon died,
with no mother or relative to watch by his
bedside, or t? soothe him with that sympa
thy, whick none but those of our own dear
kindred Mood can feel or manifest He died
amor*? strangers, and was buried by them.
Wien the funeral service was over, and the
strange friends who had ministered to him
were about to finally close the coffin, an old
lady who stood by; stopped them and said,
‘ Let me kiss him for his mother !’ We have
yet to find the first man or woman to whose
eye this simple recital has not brought
tears.’
There is a grocer up-town, who is said to be
so mean, that he was seen to catch a tly off his
counter, hold him up by his hind legs, and look
in the cracks ofhis feet to see if he'hadn’t been
stealing some of hia sugar.
