COUSIN EDWIN,
Oil
“The Hoy of Talent.”
BY’ EN>'A.
The holiday’s were over, and (he band of
! friends and relatives who annually assembled
! <it the old homestead was once more broken.
I Falhers, mothers, brothers, sisters, aunts, un
j cles, cousins and friends, had flocked to the
j common point of re union, which, this year.
I was my happy home, and iiere t hey had made
j each other wiser and happier by the u tre
! strained social intercourse cf a few days.—
Warm words of affection had gushed forth,
and smiles which were the sunshine of true
hearts, had lighted up the faces of those
whom time and circumstances had widely
separated in life. yet. not so far that love might
not briny them together.
The time-honored festival of Christmas! may
it long he observed as a season of general
thanksgiving and joy ! Many sorrows and
heart burnings are then forgotten—many feel
ings of enmity banished. The old grow young
in heart again—the young find anew and
. fuller lile.
Such were the pleasant thoughts that lin-
I gered with tne after our guests had departed.
! I thanked them Ibr it week of enjoyment, and
| wished them a safe return to their distant
! homes. I felt that I had garnered up many
rich shears for the store-house of memory —
that l had perhaps made others forget, for
awhile, the cart's of life, and cherish anew
the sweet flower of innocent joy. Notwith
standing these reflections. I should have been
lonely, but for tlte presence of a favorite cous
in who remained with us. My father was en
gaged in his study, my only brother gone to a
distant city, my little sisters were at school, and
my mother having some household duties to
attend to. had left me to entertain him for the
afternoon. **
The fii e crackled cheerily on the hearth, as
j if filled with good household sprites, who
j wokldtain hod converse with us. Iliad, with
! my work, seated myself cosily on a low otto
man. awaiting my cousin’s pleasure to do like
wise. This lie seemed little inclined to ; for
in defiance of the wintry wind whistling with
out. he was leaning far out ot’ the window,
i apparently watching something, or somebody
intensely interesting Accustomed to his way
ward moods, from observing hi* conduct dur
i ing the week he had spent with us. I did not
| speak for some time, but at last ventured to
| ask —
;> llas Cousin Edwin discovered the
j eighth wonder of the world, that he so fear
! lessly subjects himself to the remarks of pass
* ers-by. and the icy kisses of the keen blast V’
He started as if from a reverie, and did not
; at once reply, but threw himself on a sofa
i near me. and after thinking a moment, looked
’ up ands lid quickly —
■ Pardon my seeming rudeness. F.nna, I was
thinking so deeply as almost to forget your
presence' s—and-he 5 —and-he added more gaily. I en
i treat you, fair coz. to .assist me in forsaking
| the uncouth habit which I have acquired.
! during my western tour.”
This he said, in affusion to a hunting ex
cursion from which lie had just, returned.
With all my heart,” returned I. “on con
dition. that you submit implicitly to my direc
tion. and consent to be punished lor a viola
tion of my code of etiquette. But ere we begin,
you must do penance lor a want of social
disposition. When all our circle related some
thing from their past history tor the general
entertainment, and you were pressed to con
tribute jour share, you refused, with a look so
dark and determined, that I was quite sur
prised. Now for this offence, I condemn you
to relate a slorj’ lor my amusement, this after
noon.”
“ What shall it he. of ghost, hobgoblin, or
fairy —a tale of the olden lime, wild and thril
ling. or something humorous.”
• At another time,” I answered, “1 should be
perplexed to choose from (he tempting pro
gramme you generously offer, but you have
been so long a stranger in your native State.
I insist on hearing the adventures of Edwin
Harley Irom his own lips.” A shadow restgil
on his fine countenance in an instant, and he
gazed earnestly at me. as he said —
“ I vvou'd h ■ spared that ta*k Enna. and
had another asked, would have denied the re
que.-t. but since 1 came to your home you
have shown the kindness and sympathy ol a
sister, when other*, blamed and misunderstood
me. This alone induces me to open to your
glances, soma pages of my ife’s book lhat I
would fain seal forever. Os my boyish days
other lit).* have, told you, nnd I need say only
a few words with reference to them. 1 was
that uni rtunat.e being an only son of doting
parents. Unfortunate. 1 say. for had I pos
sessed a gentle sister like yourself, or a young
er brother claiming somewhat ofcare and sym
pathy. I might not have been the unhappy
wretch 1 now am. My mother, kind, gentle
and submissive, never controlled my wayward
passions, and my father, much engaged in
business pursuit*, paid little attention to my
early training, though at times he would
seem tube verj T fond of me. I possessed iittle
in common wi’h either of my parents, and har
ing no companions, but the little slaves of mv
father’s plantation, the morning I left borne
for a large male school, was rather an occa
sion of joy than grief. Here 1 soon became
noted as the leader of every plan of mischiev
ous daring. My companion*. I did not re
gard as friends, for I soon found that most of
them would stoop to pettj - art* of deception
to screen themselves from punishment. This
I scorned, and was therefore often detected.
Occasionally. I would perform my school ex
ercise* so as to elicit the most flattering en
comiums from my teachers ; then a wild rest
less spirit urged me to engage in some frolic,
that obliterated the memory of past good con
duct. Praise or blame were alike ineffectual
in checking me. I was removed from the
school, the principal telling my father—-Your
son is a hoy of talent, and might he an honor
to you. but is utterly uncontrollable.” After
much experience off hi* kind, I v. a* with some
difficulty admiUed to col'ege and went through
the course of study much in the same way —
being the favorite and captain of all the
“choice spirits,” and the target tor the sharp
est arrows of reproof. In vain did my instruc
tors plead with me, and endeavor to arouse a
spirit of ambition. Evil influences bound me
like fetters of steel, and though I was some
times touched bj- their earnest appeals to my
better nature, and resolved to amend, the old
sp:*-'': came back again, and l forgot the re?o
j lutio ito rests; u. idiot single sentence, -u.
i* a boy ol talent, but dreadfuliy wi d.” hat
come to my ears too often, and had positively
a pernicious effect, tor I began to think I could !
be anything I wished, and bad a right to
waste my time it’ I chose. My father was
anxious that I should study law. and though
I had little taste liar its dry technicalities, i
applied myself sutficientlj* to be admitted to
tlte bar at the age of three and twenty. Soon
I became disgusted with my profession and
abandoned it. It made me too familiar with
the darker traits of human character, treache
ry*. malice, falsehood and injustice. Mv time
was now spent in idle dissipation or listless in
dolence. I had not sought to make friends :
I hated the world and was reckless as to what
became of me. One day I visited the rooms
of a Diguerrean Artist and the whirnsira l !
notion entered iny brain that l would lean j
Itisart as i had nothing better lo do. My pa -
rents refused their sanction to such a scheme
and I obstinately persisting in it, left home*
without even bidding them adieu. I had al-|
ways been fond of trying to read the cbarac j
ter from ‘lie countenance, and here yvns an ;
opportunity almost boundless. Little dream
ed the objects of my mirth, my pitj* or inter-,
est. that I was forming for myself a romanci

Before me sat tlte man ot business. \vith t!i*

pen to the columns of a magazine under ;•
feigned signature. The flattering notice o',
some of these, almost persuaded me to Uin

who had gone to the West, awoke ‘he oh

frontier settlements. | tasted during tin
months I had spent in writing and taking like
nesses, the pleasure of earning my own bread
for 1 yvas tco proud to a*k mv father so,
money when I had so ungratefully left him
and when busily engaged, was comparatively
happy. But now I longed for excitement, and
soon my wish was gratified. Tlte days wer*
spent, in the wild excitement of the chase, am
as in eager pursuit of game, I strayed away
from my party. I frequently slept on the broad
prairie, wrapped in my buffalo robe, with no
canopy, save the star-gemmed vault—no lul
laby. save the ct v o wild beasts. Occasion- 1
aMv. yve h id an encounter with the red-ir-en
of the wilderness, and in one of these. I was
dangerously wounded. About this time S
heard that both mv parents were dead, and I
felt that I had embittered their last days hv
niy reckless, ungrateful conduct. The efleet’s
ol my yvound. exposute and feelings of hitter
sell reproach combined, made me dangerous
!y ill. My companions were kind, but ineffi
cient nurses, and it. was many weary weeks,
ere. I was sufficiently restored to return home
Here I am. health gone—time and talents
yvasted—a wreck, a blot on the fair fiiee of
creation—unfitted for usefulness or happi
ness.”
He bowed his her and, and conflicting emotions
seemed to eonvu’se his frame. Before Ik
came. I was a wild, joyous-hearted maiden—
I had seemed to grow older and graver, from
looking on his melancholy face and listening
to his sad story, f tried lo utter words of corn
Tort — to tell him that with us. he would soon
regain health and mental energy—but he
shook his head sadly and said:
‘ I cannot hear the thought of inflicting my
presence on your happy family. In a week I
shall sail for Europe. Perhaps the novelty of
foreign scenes, the excitement of travel uihv
restore my wasted powers in some deg: ce.”
And he went*— for some lime we received
occasioi al I* tters from Inin and eagerly were
they hailed. The style was so varied —s<
beautiful —deeciiptions offoreign scenes, an
ecdot.es. reflections and passages which evinc
ed the rare talent of the writer, made them
ever interesting—but some sentence would in
variably betray a leeling of settled gloom. —
Gradually they came lest frequently, and a:
last entirely ceased. We wondered why this
was, but knew not where to address him. as
he never remained long at one point. We
were, all assembled in our sitting room on ;■
winter evening, when a letter came for nv
fuller in a foreign hand. On reading it. h
turned deathly pale and said in treuiu ous ac
cents —-your poor Cousin Edwin s den.
Here is ins last letter to us.” With tears -a ,
deeply saddened hearts, we listened, as nn
father read
‘To my kind uncle, and aunt, and m\
cousins:
Too long have I endured this miserable ex
istence — 1 will change it for another, thougi
it be worse. My own hand hath wrought this
wretchedness, yet. 1 have wondered if there
be a God. why He has so long suffered me to
live? and still more, why he, gave me a mind
to improve, a heart to feel, and yet denied me
the moral force to resist the evil in my nature
In this hour of desperate calmness. I see only
a past of sin and misery, a dark and hopeles>
future. Farewell, ye. who vainly sought tc
win the wanderer back. 1 dare not invoke n
blessing on you. lest from mij lips it fall a
curse. My will respecting the disposition of
my fortune, you vvi I find among the private
papers 1 left in your keeping. The waves of
woe have rolled over me. and steeped my sou
in bitterness.
Your wretched nephew.
Edwin Darkey.”
A few words were added by an Italian g< n
tleman, who had traveled with him s -ying,
•'that he had visited all the places ofmtc. e-i ...
Europe, and finally fixed la* abode fora short
time in the southern part of Germany. lit
was charitable to the neighboring poor, and
courteous to all who were thrown into hi>
company hut seemed plunged into a profound
melancholy, from w.iich nothing could diver,
him. He was found on the banks of a stream
where he was accustomed to wander, with the 1
contents of his fowling piece discharged as ill
witli deliberate aim. through his heart. On
examination of his body, it was decided, that
he had fallen by ins own band. He left a
note requesting me to forward the left* r en
closed to \ou. I can only mourn the unti r,e
ly fate of your talented and amiable young
relative, without knowing the tause of his u; -
happy state of mind.”
-Alas!” said my venerable parent, •• hi
lather was an atheist Ins mother never laugh,
him to pray. Thus are visited the sins of tin
parents on the son. Thank God. my children
that, you have been taught to love and wor
ship film, who alone is light and strength to
the darkened hearts of His earthly children.’
The hour 1 listened to these words, was
the beginning of re igiotts conviction, which
brought me an humble penitent to the feet ot
Jesus.
The Ice Trade. — T.ie ice trade belongs
as much to Charlestown as the coal trade to
Philadelphia. Here ah’ the enterprise, skill
and ingenuity which have brought it to the
complete stale in which we now find it, have
been developed and exercised. Cambridge,
however, lias great claims to consideration.—
Ahhough the first cargo oi ice. ever shipped
from the port ot” Boston was taken from a pond
in Saugus, as early as >BO2, the trade has
been sustained and the n arkets o r tlte world
supplied !i>ra long series of years hy the su
perior ice of Fresh Pond slopped from the
wharves ol this city, In addition lo this, the
trade and the dealers have been almost wholly
indebted to the ingenuity and perseverance of
.Nathl. \\ yeth. Esq of Cambridge, for the in
ventions and improvements which have been
mode, front time to time, in the methods ot cut
ting. housing, packing and shipping the ice in
blocks.
The first cargo of ice shippfd from thisport

oy .VI’ r reliefic Tudor, in 1&02. was set t
St. Pierre. Mariinque. and resulted in a loss of
$4500. The foreign trade was wholly sus
’ pended during the war and resumed by Tudor
! in IS 15. up to which lime, it is stated, he had
I realized no profit lrom his enterprise. Up to
I 1532. the trade was almost entirely in the
i hands of Mr. Tudor, and the shipments of that
! year only amounted to between four and five
! thousand tons. In the next year, the first car-
I go of ice was shipped to the East Indies, de
-1 signed to Calculi . where a portion of it ar
rived and was sold at most extravagant prices.
I'i e trade has been since extended to Madras,
Bombay and. we believe, other ports, and has
proved lucrative.
In ISIS there were seven principal dealers,
but we believe no more than three or four
! shippers am in this year over lorty-thiee
i thousand to.isot ice were shipped to jwrts in
our own country, extending from Philadelphia
to .Yew Orleans, and over seventeen thousand
I tons to foreign ports, of which nearly seven
! thousand tons (more than the whole foreign
; trade in 1833) were sent to the East Indies,
Tue shipment of these 60 425 tons of ice in
IS4B occupied 326 vessels. 115 of which were
ships and barks, 70 brigs, and the balance
smaller vessels, and the amount paid for
freight was nearly one hundred thousand
dollars. The total business, includ mg freights
and profits, that year amounted to nearly lour
’ hundred thousand dollars. The business has
1 vastly increased in the last three years; and
’ probably not less than half a million tons of
ice will be cut and housed the present season.
1 Since 1832 the business has increased from
four or five thousand tons to the enormous
amount of lour or five hundred thousand tons.
During the last year, Messrs. Gage. Hittin
ger it Cos., of tliis city, disposed ol or shipped
the full amount of one hundred thousand
tons.
The artificial pond partly constructed at
Cambridge, last la.l has not proved of much
account the present season. We believe a
small quantity ol ice was taken lrom it. in the
early part of the season, but it was of compar
atively inferior quality, and a full supply and
a better article has since been attainable.

Rapidity of Thought in Dreaming.— A
remarkable circumstances, and an important
point of analogy, is to be (bund in the extreme
rapidity with which ihe mental operations are
performed or rather with which the material
changes on which the ideas depend, are exci
ted in the hemispherical ganglia. It would
appear as if a wiioie series of acts, that would
really ocriq y a long lapse of time, pass ideally
through the mind in one instant. We have
had in dreams no true perception of the lapse
of time—a strange property of mind,for ii such
he also iis property wh* n entered mio the
eternal disembodied state, time will appear to
us eternity. The relations of space as well
as of time are. also annihilated so that while
almost an eternity is compressed into a mo
ment. infinite space is traversed more swiftly
than by real thought. There tire numerous
illustrations ot’ this principle on record. A
ge nleman dreamt that lie had enlistel as a
soldier, joined his regim. i.t, deserted, was ap
prehended. carried, back, tried, condemn
ed to be shot, and at last led out lor exe
cution. Alter ail the usual preparation a gun
was fired; lie awoke with the report, and
found that a noise in the adjoining room had,
at the same moment, produced the drearn. and
awakened him. A friend of Dr. Abercrombie
dreamed that he crossed the Atlantic and
spent a fortnight in America. In embarking,
on his return, he fell into the sea and awake
ning in the fright found that he had not been
asleep ten minutes. — lJr. Windsor 8 Psycho

Low Hk.uh and Fhuit Trees.— By having
low-headed liuit trees, the sun. which is, per
haps in our hot and dry summers, the cause
o! mote disease and destruction in fruit trees
ti.an ail other diseases togi ther, is kept Irom
almost liter. i ly scalding the sap as it dees in
long, naked Hunks and limbs. The limbs and
leaves of a tree should always effectually
shade the trunk and keep it cool. The leaves,
only, should have pleuiy ol sun and light ;
tin y can bear ami prohi by ii. It trees were
suffered to branch out low. say w>thin one
or two leel of the ground, we snould hear ve

ways looser, moister, and cooler under a low
hranchi g tree than under a high one. Grass
and weeds do not grow a hundredth part so
rank and readily, and mulching becomes un
necessary. I lie wind has not bait the power
to rack, and twist the tree, and shake off'ihe
fruit; a nuttier ot no inconsiderable conse

The trees are more easily rid ol desiructive
insects, the Iruit is much less damaged by
falling, and the laciiities for gathering it are
much greater; there is much less danger in
climbing, and less of breaking limbs. TJifti
trees require less pruning and scraping and
washing; and the roots are protected Irons,
