HISTORY OF snoiiliu. INHERITED WEALTH. A STORY FOR PARENTS. Timothy Chandler wa6 five and-thirfy years of age, and he had a w ife and four children. His oldest child was a boy, four teen years old—for Tim had married i young; while his youngest was a girl of six. His wife was one of those busy, j tidy, loving women, who seemed raised up by heaven to show to a degenerate ; age. how much the wife and mother can ! do tow ard making fiteside- heavens on ieaiili. f J im was a cooper by trade, and no man could have askeu for a heller bnsi- j ness than he had it in liis power to com ; mat d. And Tim was one of those kiud- liear’ed. generous, free spoken, impulsive men, who can so easily engage the love and esteem of their fell. ws. But Tim had faults. lie had some very had faults, lie was a discontented mortal; and he was a convivial mortal. He envitd those who possessed more | worldly wealth than did he; and lie spent a large portion ot his own effects in the j company of riotous companions. In short, j Tim was becoming intemperate, ft was j to he seen in tlie unsteadiness of his step ; j in the unnatural flush of his cheek; and in the dying light of his once clear, bright •ye. And. alas! it was to be seen in his | j once happy home ; but unhappy now. It | was to he seen in the fading of the bloom ! upon liia wife’s fair cheek ; in the tears j that stole down her drooping lashes; in ! the sighs that broke from her heaving bo- ; sons ; and in the look of deep unrest that j often dwelt upon the faces of his elder ] children. And it coul I be seen, too, in j the foot-maiks of a desolation that was j beginning to ere* p around the cottage, i “Timothy,” said his wife; it was early in the morning, before tlie children were up; “Joseph and William must have some j warmer clothing. r J he ground is begin- j ning to freeze and they suffer.” j ‘That’s easier said than done,’ replied Tim, in a rough, uneven way. ‘ ± hey’ll j have to wait till I can make a raise. Con j found it! why was not I born as other j folks are born ? Why wasn’t good luck The lir»t mode of using tobacco tn England i in u, y star ! \\ by wasn’t there a fortune that we used to take a glass together be fore you moved away fmm our town, though not often.’ ‘I never drank much,’ resumed Carle- ton ; ‘and finally I quit it entirely. I’ll tell you how it was. It was a very sim ple affair ; hut still, in our journey through life we shall find that circumstances, very trivial in themselves, sometimes exert wondeifnl influences over us. My parents were vprv poor, as yon must remember; but they left me with a good education, and many good lessons of life. As I grew up I longed to lie rich. Close bv ti e lived John Boditon. lie had inheri'ed great wealth from bis parents, and fb titislied in grantl st\le. I eti' ied John Boynton.— When I thought how easily lie came h\ his money, 1 was almost disheartened at my own prospect : and very often 1 found myself complaining because nn - parents bad not h-ft me something with which to make a start in the wot Id. 1 married, and went into business ; but »lie old com plaint was upon me. 1 dreamed of Alad din’s lamp, and of tlie magic ting, and spent half my time in wishing that I had them ; and fluting all this time 1 was in the habit of using intoxicating drink 1 did n’t drink much, though I often drank more than 1 ought. ‘Well, one day I picked up a paper front my na:ivc town, and saw therein that John Boynton was dead. Aye— more than that; he had died poor and de graded, and his children wete left entirely destitute. 1 heir mother had died of a broken heart a year before. And this w as the end of a man whom 1 had so envied. Ilis wealth was all gone—lie was gone— and all that his children could inherit from him would be shame and sorrow. ‘I went home and reflected. 1 saw my wife and children sitting by the hearth, and I fancied that I could detect lines of sorrow upon their faces. I w alked out into the pale moonlight, and inv thoughts ored and respected ; while, as counsellor and guide, to the young and fo the mid dle-age, none stood higher than did lie. Timothy Chandler had not been able to lay up much money for his children ; hut did he not give to them for an inheri lance something of far greater worth— something nearer the worth of heaven? Ah—did he not ? [From tin* London Times, June 11.j .Imciican t'oniimnry. Indignation is vexit gtlie Ameiicansef the North to an extramdinary degree. Their excitement with regard to tLt Secessionist* is a cool t ffe-i vesccnce, like one of their ow n aerated dtit ke, in comparison with the boiling wrath w hie It t hi eaten to «»\ erw helm our own country. Happily there are many vents for this feimentation, and we may hope that not only will tl.eie le no ex plosion, but that public opinion will be eventually cleated at.d purified by the ptneess. ***** 1 he secret of the disappointment of the Xortherneis and of tln-ir strange display of temper is to be found, we think, in that constant distegard of international cour tesy which lias distinguished suceeessive governments for many; years. Elated by the rapid growth of (heir wealth and popu lation; by successful attempts on the ter ritory of their neighbors, and by the knowledge that England depended on them constantly for cotton and periodically for food, the American pe< pie have ac quired a habit of petulance, and almost of insolence, in their dealings with foreign powers, which now affects their judgment —usually clear and sound—in questions of constitutional right, it is the old fail ing of despots, whether on a throne or in private life, that they look on those who disagree with them as questioning their veracity or insulting their character. So with tlie Americans, it seems to us, front all we can hear nnd read, that they really came down to a plain, practical issue. 1 ! and truly believe that England is c«m- w as smoking, and Sir Wa ter Raleigh, as is w known, was the tiist man that introduced the fash ion. Raleigh hail his arms emblazoned at his dwelling at Islington, aftei wards an inn, known as the Died Bull, with a tobacco plant upon the top. It was the first house in England in which tobacco was smoked. The celebrated tobacco box of Sir Waller, used in entertaining his guests, was of a l-} limirical form, about seven inches in , diameter aud twelve irn-hes high ; the outside was I Eiatie ; see how they live. J hey had left to me by wealthy parents V The wife made no response. This was her husband’s envious hobby. When he felt the need of money he invariably found fault with his fate. ‘Look at Stiles,’he continued, growing more litter; ‘and look at Butler; and at of glided leather, and within was a receive! ot glass oi meal, which would hold about a pound of tobacco; a kind ot collar connected ihe receiv er with the case, and on eveiy side tho Oox was pierced with hole* tor the pipes. '1 he honor of being -lie Inst female smoker in Eng and, is due to Queen F^ izabeili, w ho copied the habit trotn Raleigh, and was in her time imi tated by ladns ot her court, 'lheiewas another, claimant for this honor in the person of one Alolly j same complaint so often and had tried to Untpitrse. a low woman lamons toi her follies ami ! cheer her husband so much, that she felt her crimes, but upon examination it was found j |]]-„ t e |]j ()I r hint the truth, that tho distinction belonged to the Virgin Queen ! ..... , , , , Molly never laid a-ide her pipe nil her del h in!, 1 mtothy Ishe Stud the in kindest way. She whs an r-rigiiml genius, as was shown j hut J YMth firmness, ‘you do wrong!' money left to ’em. They inherited wealth from their parents. They don’t have to work, and dig, and he dunned for what they can’t afford. Curses on this poor luck, 1 say !’ Hannah Chandler could not help speak ing what she felt. Islte had heard this by a diiection in her will tnat tier nephew! whom she lelt the bulk of her property, “should not lay it out looltshly, hut get dtunk v. nil it while it lasted.” talk so; you do wrong to allow' your thought* to How in that diiection.

As time wore on I iui Chandler became worse instead of better, liis wife suffered more, and his children suffered more ; aud be, too, suffered more. liis shop was much of the time neglected, and his in come was so small that he had none for his home. His wife worked hard with her limp and her needle, while he spent a great part of liis time at the village tavern. And as Hannah Chandler sat by her work-table during those long winter even ings, w ith her children craw ling close to the lire to warm their shivering bodies, she prayed continually for her wayward husband. One night—or rather, one evening— Tim sat in ihe bar-room of the tavern He drank but little that day, for he had no money, and he had not yet faile • so low as to get trusted for his rum.

You tieedii’t be sinpined if you hear ere long ot “evuebody being hurt.” Falhxttu. asked myself; shall I have an inheritance to bequeath to my children ? When I am gone, shall those loved ones inherit any thing from their father which shall be of value to them in their great work of life ? And I said to myself: I may not leave them money—1 may not store up tor them a hoard of material wealth; but I can leave for them that which is better; I can leave to them a father’s name unsullied ; a father’s honor untarnished ; and a fath er’s life after which they may copy with safety. ’1 went back to my home, firmly re solved in my new course. I kissed my w ife and children ; and when I retired, I piayed that (Jod would give me streiigh. And from that moment I have not faltered. 1 cast away the cup and its association forever ; I ceased to envy those who might be richer than myself; aud am now at xvoik, with hand and heart and soul, to lay up for my children an inheritance which cannot lie lost to them by any re vulsion of earthly fortune. Now- yott know why I tefused to drink with you. And surely you forgive me.’ ‘More, more than that,’ cried Webber, reaching forth his hand. ‘I f.ngive you ; and 1 bless you for the lesson. From this time forth I am with you. 'J he last cup has been pressed to my lips; the last convivial hour is passed. Here, in this warm grasp, is my pledge !’ 'J lie host came in. and the two guests arose and left the room. In a little while r l im Chandler glided down from the bunk, and moved toward to the door. In the entry be met a number of bis boon con panions, who were just in for a time. ‘Hi lo ! where now Tim ? Conte; join us. W hat’ll y e bate ? •Not now ; i.ot now,’ ieplied Tim. •Then ci me and take a glass.’ •No; not now.’ And with tliis’Tim ( handler hurried out of dtinis. ’ihe si.ow-iiaik was Laid and smooth, nnd the air was simp and tutting. But T mi noticed not ihe cold. He walked slowly, tin.rightfully on, ever and anon mntteing to himself, wiili liis head bowed, and bis bands clenched. Finally, when he had ci me within sight ot bis own cottage, be sti pped. and spoke almid. He bad been thinking deeply, calmly, and solemnly, and bis decision had been arrived at with clear comprehen sion and firm purpose. ‘Tim Chandler can leave liis children an inheritence!’ he said, with his feet planted fiimly, liis swelling breast thrown nobly out, and his head proudly erect ‘These arms ate stunt; this heart is strong; and this biain can be clear again. As (iod lives, ami sufleis me to live, my chil (hen shall have an inheritance which will not cause them to blush for the father who left it!’ Carleton made one convert that night of whose existence, even, he did not know. Timothy entered bis house, and sat down by the fire. Ilis wife was alone, and had been weeping. He dared not speak then, hut suffered her to retire with the weight of sorrow still upon her. And llaunah Chandler slept, aud dreamed, and did not dream of the angel that had come to her home. In the morning Timothy was up first. When his wife came out he bad a warm I witting a most hostile? act by refusing to treat tlie Southern privateers as pirates, and that the English press takes an un warrantable liberty when it discusses the possibility of an ultimate, disruption, or even speak of Mr. Davis as “Piesident of the Confederate Btates.” It has been represented that the violence and captious- ness.of American diplomacy during the last 20 years have been the work of Southern politicians; but whoever planted or watered the bad seed, it has certainly- grown up to full luxuriance iti the North; lur tlie opinions expressed on every side, and reported fo be held by tlie Cabinet at Washington, are as unjustifiable as any ever advanced in tlie palmy days of the Union. '1 lie Americans, accustomed t make tlieir own interest and feelings tlie standard of international law, to repudiate whatever was inconsistent with their claims to universal dominion in the New World, to support atone time the claims of au thority, at another the indefeasible rights of existing majorities, to cite precedents or to defy them, as it suited ihe cause they favored, are now, in all innocence and w ith full belief in tlieir own consis tency, holding within six months two op posite theories of their Constitution, and expecting Englishmen to change tlieir view s just as popular feeling in the States has changed. The Government and people of this country hate retained for the most part the opinions which the Americans them selves held and taught u«, tip to the lbtii of April, the day before the New York fire men cliaiigeu themselves to Zouaves, and the lleiahl was forced to leconsider it> piineiples by ihe appearance of a mob it front of it* otiiie. if, before that date, any English inetnl er of Bniliament, to any F nglisli newspaper, had ventured ti suggest lhat the new ITesident slimiid oi ganize a laige standii g army, blockade 3.000 miles ot coast, and invade a flourish ing region at the. head of 150.000 men, what an outbuist of indignation would have met the Machiavellian couiiself How we should have 1 een reminded that a te- "s rests on the consent of the govern ed, not, like thenid British Empire, on tyranny and taxes; 'bat the t-oiithorn States were not a Hindustan, tube r« conquered in a tuelvcnn till ; that' the people of New Yi ik and other seats oi commerce were not likely to make tlietn- selves catspaws to cany out England’s abolition schemes, by invading the plant ing IStates and encouraging lazy niggeis to rebel against tlieir masters! In short, it would have been triumphantly demon strated that our sympathy for the Federal authority was only affected with the dia bolical purpose of embroiling the two sec tions of the American people. Y’et be cause, front a sudden excess of patriotu feeling, the Northern populations aie or ganizing a descent on the Smiitli, we are expected to forget all tlie decency and pru dence of international intercourse, and join in hounding on the invaders! That i the people of the North should be unable I to control tlieir anger at finding that an in dependent foreign power does not commit itself to demonstrations of hostility against ten millions of civilized men with whom it lias no quarrel, and whose rights to inde pendence, though now denied, were admit ted by the North itself a few weeks ago, shows to what a point of irritability the Americans had been brought bv years ol fire built, and the tea-kettle on.

Oh! liow she loved and cheered him—how she clung to him, and blessed him ! How bright was the heaven of that home; how sweet the music of its angel voices! Aud Timothy Chandler went forth to carve out the inheritance for his children. His arm was strong, and so was his heart. Ilis soul was firm, aud so was his purpose. ‘I he years crept on apace, and the frost of age was upon his brow as white as snow. His wmk was done, and he sat down in the evening of life, by his Han nah's side, to rest and tepoMt. He had carved out the inheritance, and he lived to see liis children, and liis children’s chil dren enjoy it. As father, aud as grand father, lie was tenderly loved and worship ed ; aud as friend and citizen he was lum bers, or superior weapons, will decide the victory. But amongst undisciplined vol tire case is very diderent. ’1 h superiority will be determined by two causes—^first, the habfts of the soldiers- second, the moral influences acting on them. The habits of an agriculture people are very different ftoin those of a manufactur ing or commercial people. The field labor of tlie former, in the open air, v and gen erally in isolated industry, gives a hardi ness and self-relience not common amongst laborers in cities or factories. Soldiers taken from the fields aie, therefore, gen erally superior to those taken from cities. But if the agricultural laborer is also a huntsman, his superiority is greatly in creased. To be tamilliar with the gun and horse, makes him more enterprising in character, and his aim more deadly in battle. But the second cause, the moral influences which act upon the volunteer, is also a great source of disparity. A dis ciplined soldier i« a machine. The cause for which lie fights, he knows or cares nothing, lie fights generally just as web in obedience to the behests of a tyrant as at the call of his eountiy to defeud its liberties. The volunteer enters, of his own accord, into the strife of battle. He lias motives which uige him tn this entei prise of danger nod death. The Northern hoi ties which overran and conquered Italy, were \ oiuutecis actuated with the motive# of plunder and conquest* The people of Holland, in the heroic struggle again-t Phillip, were actuated by tlie love of lib erty and the «iesire of national indepen dence. Gain and ambition are undoubt edly strong motives of action, and have been those which have usually produced war amongst nations. But a free people, defending their country and homes, and contending for their liberties, have the highest and strongest motives for devotion and heroism which can actuate a people. Under equal circumstances, they must lie, from the moral influences, operating upon them, unconquerable. Let us apply these observations to the war now being waged between the United and Confederate States. It is a war of volunteers, and both sides can get as many men as are needed, up to 500,000. 1. The volunteeis of the Confederate States are from an agricultural people. Tt ey are more They aie front an agii- rultural people habituated lo the use of tho horse and gun. Tlie volunteers of the United States, now threatening Virginia, are rhieflv from the cities and factories of the North, who know neither how to ride a horse or shoot a gun. \Ye therefore infer that the volun teers from the Confederate Stales are superior to the volunteers of the United States, and that, consequently, it iseleatly the policy of the Confederate States to fight, whilst on bmli sides the opposing aimies consist of undisciplined volunteer#. To postpone battle until the volunteeis of tie United States become disciplined soldiers, arid tints equal to the tioops of tlie Confederate States, is not good poli cy- But the second cause which gives vic tory to armies—the moral influences which gorem them—gives also the Confederate troops the superiority. r J he Northern troops, like the Gotlis and Huns of foimer days, are fighling for gain and plunder. The Confederate troops aie fghtii g for their hon es, tlieir country nnd llnir lib erties. Discipline may help the burner, but lannot. in tlie same degree, aid the latter. ’I he undisciplined tioops of France, during the existence of the Republic, did not require discipline. The nioinl impul ses which urged tin m on in tlie defence of France and tlieir liberties, supplied all the defects of discipline. Discipline, in *at t, might have made them inferior soldiers, by substituting the drill, with its iiksome delay and tedious labor, for the “noble rage” of free men. Here again the moral influences which actuate the Confederate and the United States, would seem to make it the imperious policy of the Confederate States promptly and energetically to urge on the contest of war. Delay does not wear out calculation of gain; but it may wear out that enthusiasm which, “taken at the flood leads on to” victory. ——— F’rom tlie Richmond Examiner. The War Polity of (he South. Nothing would have been easier than for Viiginia and Maryland, or for Virginia alone, to have prevented the inauguration of Lincoln in Washington, and thereby to have driven or confined the new- adminis tration north of Mason and 1 iixon’s line; and, for the first month after the inaugura tion. h few thousand Southern troops might have readily expelled it from Wash ington. Every day since then it has been strengthening its position, and introducii g troops for defence faster than tlie South has levied them for assault. Nothing is more certain than that, if we had forced them to fight, without discipline on either side, we should have whipped them, noth ing more doubtful than whether Northern or Southern men make, the best regulars.
