England boys don't often start oft' on their
- mllv long wandering excursions, without tirst
. "mg leave of absence for a few days preparato
exeivise, which they spend in going where
iginally came from; and then, having taken

•vi ih"y are ready for a start to go “am where."
Walter went up to do, and did do all this; but
L" did o'>t get into the stage at the tavern. He
s.dked down the road, ahead of the coach, toward
’■•old bridge, and told the stage driver to stop
.1 let him get in at the minister’s house—at Par
ti Fuller's. Mary Fuller lived there too, for she
ippened to be the parson's only daughter. She

it long, loose tresses of auburn hair, and had

Very probable, unless they have forgotten me

" Xot a particle, I—”
The pretty maid forgot what she was going to
'■'v, but at last remembered, and continued—
” 1 should suppose vou had not altered, for you

"TVbat. little Mary? my‘little wife,’as I used
to call her! Why, Lord love vou, do vou know
her ? Bless her heart! My trunk is tilled with
knick-knacks for her especial use. Do I know
her.' Mhy I have thought of her ever since I
went away Young lady 4 Why she is u little
bit of a girl; she is only ten rears old. So she
must be older than that now.' I suppose 1 shall
find her grown considerably. By the wav. are vou
i not cold:- Its getting chilly.”
The delighted young lady was trying to conceal
her face, which had called forth Walter’s exclama
” Yes it is getting colder; it is nearly dark-”
Walter had a boat cloak, and after
I a very little trouble he was permitted to wrap if
around her lovely form, and some how or other
| L 1 , 1 ' d i\ n " e , nt ' Vl,h ls: and iu the confusion he was
very close to her, and his arm was around her
waist, outside the cloak, though ; then he had to
put his face down to hear what she said, and some
how those long ringlets of soft, silky hair, were
; plating across his cheek. Human nature could
j not and would not stand it anv longer ; and Wal
tei, the modest Walter, drew his arm closer than
ever, and pressed upon the warm, rosv lips of his
beautiful fellow-traveller a glowing, burning, re
guiar Lust India, Bombay kiss, and then blushed
himself ut the mischief he had done, and waited
for the stage to upset, or something else to hap
pen ; bat no, she had not made anv resistance; on
the contrary, he felt very distinctly that she had
returned the kiss; the very first kiss, too, he hud
ever pressed upon a woman’s lips since he gave a
pat ting kiss to little Mary Fuller, and he would
have sworn he heard her saving something (about
the very moment he had given her that first long
kiss of youth and love; that sounded like ‘‘Deary
dear Walter.” He tried the experiment again, and
before the stage had fairly reached the village, he j
had kissed and re-kissed her, and she had paid |
‘hem back kiss tor kiss at least a hundred times.
The stage was now entering the village. In a
. few moments he would be at Mary Fuller's house.
He thought of her and he felt ashamed and down
; t'tgbt guilty. What would Mary, his “little wife,”
that was to be, say if she knew he had been acting
I so? As these things passed rapidly through his
mind, he began to study liow to get out of the as
! fair quietly and decently.
“ \ oil go on in the stage, I suppose, to the next
j town, or perhaps still farther V”
I “Oh, no! not me.’’
What could she mean ? But he had no time to
indulge iu conjecture ; the stage drove up slap iu
front of Parson Fuller's door, and there was the
venerable parson and his good lady in the door
way ; he with a lamp in his hand, nil ready to re
| ceive—Walter, as he supposed.
“ Where will you stop in the village y [ will
come and see you.”
“ 1 shall stop where you Mop. 1 won’t leave
you. Here you have been kissing me this last
half hour, and nowjvoiijwant to run awnv and leave
me. lam determined to expose you to that old
clergyman and his wife in the doorway von
dor. More then that, your “ darling little wife,”
that is to he, as you called her, shall know all
about it.”
What a situation for a modest moral man ! It
was awful. To be laughed at—exposed; and who
was she - ' Could it be possible? He had heard of
-uch characters, ft must be ; hut she was verv
pretty; and he to be the means of bringing such
a creature into the very house of the good and
pious old clergyman and his sweet old pet and
playmate—his Mary Fuller! He saw it all. It
was a judgment sent upon him. What business
hail he to be kissing a strange girl if she was
pretty? His uncle and aunt hud come clear
down the stone-walk (» the dot a yard gate, al
most to the stage door, which the driver had open
ed. Walter felt that he was doomed ; but he had
t<> get out.
“ Don’t, for (rod’s sake expose me, vouug wo i
mail!”
“ J will —get out!”
“Oh ’ thought W alter, “it’s all over with me !’ j
md now he shakes hands with the clergvman, and !
flings his arms around the aunt.
“Maty!” exclaimed the mother, “our Marvin j
the stage, as 1 live! So, so; you would come up :
with your cousin, eh?”
“ Yes, mother; and what do you think the im
pudent h ast Indian has been doing? He has kiss
ed me at least a hundred times, and that isn’t all ;
he tried to persuade me to keep on iu the stage and
not get out at all!”
“ Ah, no wonder he kissed vou; he hasn't seen
you for some years. How glad you must have
been when you met ? But w hat is the matter with
you, Walter? Let the driver stop and leave your
trunk at yotir father’s as he goes by, and do you
come into the house. Why, what is the matier?
Are you dumb ?”
“ Aren’t you ashamed of yourself, Waller, not to
-peak to niv mother, when she is talking to vou !”
chimed in Miss Molly.
Walter uow found Ins voice, and before ho got ,
fairly inside, Miss Mary was lii.s debtor for a round
dozen ot kisses, which she took very kindly. But (
as for Walter, his mind was made up. He had ,
turned over the subject during the last three min- j
ute.s. He would marry that strange girl. He was j
grateful she had saved him from degradation, loss .
of character, and everything else ; but would she ,
forgive him for being so free with a strange girl ,
in a stage coach ? Doubtful: but she should have ,
the eliancc, at any rate.
The wanderer received a glad welcome from his j
family and friends in his own native village; and
Mary Fuller was liis traveling companion about j j
the place ; and together they crossed the door-sill ,
of even old farm house within a circle of five
miles round. Walter had seen enough of the out- |
side of this great world. He had made some
mont-i, too, enough for his modest wants ; he was ‘
old enough to marry—and so was Mary Fuller ; (
and before three months more had rolled over their
heads, the venerable old father made them one, ill .
the front parlor of the old glebe. When the vows j
had been spoken, the last prayer made, and the !
blessing pronounced, Walter clasped Mary to his
breast, and imprinted on her lips another first kiss; f
but now it was the in -’ thrilling kiss of married j
love, and as he held lier a moment in his ardent
embrace, she whispered gently into his car —“Wal-
ter, dear, it is understood in thcvow.no more kiss

The Washington sin , of 27th inst., lias the
following report of the exciting debate in the IT. S.
Senate on the '27th inst.:
W vstiiNuroN, Mav 27. In the Senate, to-dav,
Mr. Slidell, rising to a personal explanation, de
nied the accuracy of the testimony ol Mr. Sumner
before the special committee, as published in the
Baltimore Sun of this morning, relative to the
fracas that took place a few days since in the Sen
ate chamber.
Mr. Douglas also made a personal explanation,
wherein he, too, denied the correctness of the state
ment made by Mr. Sumner with reference to him
self, as connected with the fracas above mentioned.
Mr. Toombs also did the same, and took occa
sion to add that \vlien the affair occurred, he felt
no other sentiment with reference to it than that
Mi. Sumner received just what he deserved, and
nothing more.
Mr. Butler addressed the Senate in a lew rc
maiks, wherein he stated that Mr. Sumner, iu say
ing tint his : Mr. Butler’s) personal remarks had
•ailed for the language that Mr. S. Lmd used to
wards him personally, hud committed a mistake.
He challenged a reference to the record to prove
that he had long since ceased to recognize Mr. S.
in debate, < r to allude in anv wav to anything the
Senator Mr. S -aid or did.
Mr. Wade denounced the declaration of Mr.
Toombs. He declared that, on the doctrine of Mr.
T.. tt would be necessary for his side to come into
the Senate chamber armed, and, though but a
small number, to vindicate the right of free speech
there by force of arms, Ac.
Mr. Wilson explained that his colleague's testi
mony might be wrong in unimportant particulars
on account of the sonfusinn of his situation in the
affair ; and thus accounted for his mistakes, to
which Messrs. Slidell, Douglas and Toombs had
alluded.
In the course of his remarks he took occasion to
denounce the assault made by Mr. Brooks on
Senator Sumner as base, outrageous and coivardlx - .
When lie uttered that last word, Mr. Butler said
“You are a liar.”
Great excitement here occurred for a moment ;
when
Mr. Stuart called to order, and argued that all
the current proceedings were out of order.
Mr. Butler then apologised to the Senate for
using the words that had last escaped him.
After a few further remarks from Messrs. Wil
son and Foster, the hour for the .special order ar
rived ; and the Central American question with
Britain w as taken up.

Southern Oultirito/ .
A Child’s Answer.— A father said playfully to
his daughter, a child five years old :
“Mary, you are not good for anything.
• “Yes 1 am, dear father,” replied she, looking
thoughtfully and tenderly into his face.
! “Whv, what are vou good for, pray tell me my
t dear?"
"I am good to love niv fattier and mother,' she
II replied, at the same time throwing her tiny arms
around his neck, and giving him a kiss of unutter
l> able affection.
Blessed child, may your life ever be an expres
sion of that instinct of love. The highest good
£ ?. ou orau F other mortal can possibly confer, ts to
j live m the full exercise of your affection.
I Mothers aud Children.
A writer in the Southern Literary Messenger is
\ i apprehensive that the “ progress of the age” will
, abolish mothers; but we give the complaint for it
: j self:
“ Mother! the world can utter no sweeter, purer
| word than this. What visions did it once conjure
up, of boundless devotion, of self-sacrificing love,
of lessons, that falling musically from a mother’s
lips, taught obedience, truth, and self-restraint.
Once, the mother guided the child, with firm, but
I loving hand, through the flowery mazes of child
j hood into the broad fields of maturity. She pre
pared the youthful traveller tor the world’s encoun
j ter; she disciplined the ardent passions, and regu
i lated the hasty temper. She encompassed the
! child with a wholesome moral influence, and dared
say “no,” when its welfare demanded it. She
ruled, not with an iron rod, but firmly, gently,
and the child loved her none the less because she
taught it the word obedience. We have mothers
just as loving, just as self-sacrificing as of yore;
but we miss that wholesome moral training that
distinguished the rule of the mothers of the past, j
“It is vain to close our eves to tiie fact, it stares j
us boldly in the face, the most monstrous deformi
ty of the nineteenth century: this is the reign of
children: at home and at school. The parent is j
ruled, and the teacher striving iu vain to assert 1
his authority, is overcome in the battle, waving
over his defenceless head the banner of ‘moral j
r suasion.’ Alas! for the teacher of this age. He j
makes rules, his pupils break them as easily as \
they do the panes of glass; he appeals for redress I
to the parent; the mother, for the father rarely up- j
pears in these matters, tells him ‘I have no con- :
trol over my children, they do as they please,’ and ,
j she heaves a sigh over her son’s contempt of law- i
i ful authority, and her daughter’s headstrong wil- !
i fulness. Slie forgets, or perhaps never knew, that !
she, hetself, is the ‘head and front of the offend
ing.’ Did she teach obedience at home, would re
sistance at school be the consequence? Did she
rule with gentle restraint, would impatience of
all law ensue? Did she teach her child to ‘order
himself lowly aud reverently to all his betters,’
would we have such scenes of riot and insubordi
nation as so frequently disgrace our colleges and
schools ? Where did these youthful contenders for
equality receive their first lesson in successful re- |
bellion ? At home, where the infantile hand j
proved stronger than the maternal arm; where !
the child’s ‘jl won’t’ o’ermastered the mother’s I
‘you must;’ where the weak will of the parent i
succumbed before the more resolute will of her
offspring.
“ 11 hat sort of citizens do these young victors |
make 4 Turbulent resistors of law and order, their
, names flourish in police reports, as the headers of j
mobs; they are found among the perpetrators of
crime, the miserable culprits of the bar.
“ In the church they are not of those who ‘ re
ceive the word in meekness,' and conform unhesi
tatingly to all her holy rites. But they are found
among the censorious critics of sermons; the op
posers of time-honored ceremonies aud precepts. |
Tin seeds of disobedience, sown so successfully in j
the nursery, shoot up the deadly Unas branches j
until they sweep against the very arch of heaven ; j
nian is resisted on earth, and God defied on his j
awful throne in the skies.
“ There is not a ruler but knows this to he true ;
not a pastor but sees this influence at work among
his flock; and not a teacher contending with ‘dis- !
cipline and bread,’ bin laments this d plorableaud
widely spreading evil. Yes, we want it race of j
mothers—mothers in the true, the legitimate sense i
of the word—mothers with a sense of maternal re- I
sponsibility —mothers who will realize that they j
ate educating heirs for immortal life, and, that the ;
waves of Time, rapidly driving them on, will soon j
set them face to face in Eternity with those chil- j ,
dren they have educated for endless bliss, or tin- : 1
ending woe. 0, weak, yielding, irresolute mother, !
think of these things!
" We do not ask you to oppress with tyranny
young child that looks to you for protection ; we i
do not wish even to hint at the lengthening of your j
fan handles, with which to reach your refractory !
daughters across the room, as did the mother of ;
Queen Mary’s day ; ive would not have you re- ,
press the joyous sallies of the child, or dim with
uusyuipnth;. the brightness of its young affections; >
we would not wish one innocent amusement with- ,
drawn, or one flower that springs in iu path cut (
down. So far from it, we would have you till its : j
little hands w ith the brightest of flowers ; fold it |
to your heart with the tenderest love; listen with j |
the deepest sympathy to its confidences; join in ' j
its sports ; bear patiently with its p.-tuleni e ; out- c
watch the stars bv its restless couch ; and encom- ; ,
pass it with the most devoted love of a mother’s
heart. But we would not have you resign it to it- ,
self, to its eager passions, its unrestrained powers j s
a miserable victim to parental weakness, u ten- c
dor plant, left to shoot up uncultivated, unpruned, j
whose luxuriance if of vice, whose blossoms trail i ,
in the dust. ■ t
“\Yo do not ask you to force the voting child to ;
obedience, but win it by the power of p. ; suasion, ] ,
and by constantly setting before it the picture in
its most attractive lights. Tench it that it is ltono- j (
ruble to obey, that disobedience is criminal in the I ,
sight of God. And, in inculcating this lesson, yon j t
need not be one iota less amiable than you now I |
are; you need tear losing none of your attractive
gentleness, or forfeiting one throb of love that ,
beats for you in the bosom of your child. Thu’ ;
home is the very threshold of heaven, where the
pious, gentle mother, exercising her maternal t u'e .
iu the tear anal love of God, teaches a.hr-lienee, j
virtue and selt-i “.-.truint. Such a mother is the >
able su.staitter ot the laws of lief country, the es- j i
I'ee‘ual co-laborer with the pastor, and the valuable > i
assistant of the teacher. But alas! for her, who, i
without counting the fearful costs, has poisoned the j s
moral atmosphere of home by culpable neglect, or (
weak indulgence, who submits to the degradation ! !
of being ruled by her mvn offspring, and who a!- I 1
lows the still small voice of conscience to be hushed \
by the noisy clamors of the child. : I
“Oh, will not the mothers of our country rouse j
themselves with this fearful apathy, and realize <
their sacred responsibility ? Will they not strive 1
to become mothers, indeed, by exercising their j
rightful prerogatives? Will they not haste to set ! I
before their children the most complete, the most i
beautiful example of obedience on record -that of
him, who, though Lord of the universe, was yet <
‘ subject unto his parents.’
When the mothers of America take up 1 1 1 ■■ scep
tre they have so cowardly laid down, and children i
are again brought under home discipline, then will i
magistiat. mlcvvithea.se, pastors find the way ,
prepared before them, and the pro oit rugged path I
of the teacher be made smooth. When mothers j
become mothers indeed, then will the world regain i
its proper position, and cease to present that most I
extraordinary spectacle- ‘ a world turned upside
down.’ "
Reception of Air. Ilutoril at Wesport
Missouri.
The Westport lionler Times, announces the arri- <
val in that place of Maj. l’.i conn with his compa
ny of three hundred and fifty southern emigrants |
for Kansas. They were kindly received, and left i
the next day for the Territory. The Times says: \
“ We have had the pleasure of an acquaintance
with a large number of those belonging to the
company, and find them all gallant and accom
plished gentlemen, and we predict a prosperous
future for those chivalrous men, who have enroll
ed themselves under the southern banner.
On Thursday, of this week, after an address by
Mr. Baker, of Ala., to the company of Major Bu
ford, the latter was presented with a fine horse,
bridle and saddle, in a public manner. The pre
sentation was made through Mr. 11. Glav Pate,
who, in the presence of a large crowd, addressed
Maj. Buford as follows :
“Major Hn/ord: In the name of the people of
Westport, I present you with this horse, bridle
and saddle. The horse is given by Mr. Samuel
McKinney, a gentleman of this place; the rigging
was purchased by subscription of the citizens.
They are presented as a testimonial of your noble
services in behalf of the South, and the cause of
slavery for Kansas.”
When the bridle was placed in the hands ol the
Major, deafening shouts arose from the multitude
assembled.
The horse is a large sorrel, well made aud spirit
ed ; Mr. McKinney purchased him a few weeks
since for one hundred and fifty dollars. The sad
dle, which is a Mexican, of elegant workmanship,
cost forty dollars. The bridle was given by Mr.
Dillon, of Westport. Major Buford acknowledged
the receipt of the present in a handsome speech.

Oltkaoeols Treatment of a Bftior..—We copy
the following from the Boston idvcrtU> r•'
“ A young ladv who was making preparations to
be married on Wednesday evening, made some
ourchases on the afternoon of that day at a store
in this city. Upon leaving the store she rolled up
the several articles which she had bought in one
bundle, and, in the nervous haste which would
naturally be attributed to one about to enter the
bonds of wedlock, carried off’ in her package two
cheap fans which she had not bought.
“When she reached home she discovered the
mistake, aud immediately returned to the store
and gave the fans to tlie owner. He, instead of
thanking the young lady for her honesty in so
small a matter, (for the fans were not worth tweu- ;
ty-five cents), caused her to be arrested. Sharing j
the fate of many real criminals, she was placed in '
a cell of the ‘Tombs’ beneath the Court-house. !
The father »f the girl, in company with her in- !
j tended husband, hunted up Judge Russel of the I
j police court with the intention of restoring her to j
l liberty on bail. Unfortunately, the Judge had no
■ ! power to bail any person out of the ‘Tombs,’ and ;
; the young lady was obliged to stay in the unhealthy j
and repulsive dungeon till morning. She was
then brought before the court, but no one appeal ed
■ ujninet her, and she wa.a set at liberty. Believing
[ that further great hardships might result under
i similar circumstances, measures were taken to al
! low Justices to take bail iu such case*.”
i Confirmed.—The United States Senate have
; | confirmed the following nominations, viz : Petsk
1 j Parker, of Massachusetts, to be the Commission
- er of the United States to China, Tice R. M Mo
■ Lane resigned.
•Las. Riley, of Texas, to be United States Con
“ sul at St. Petersburg, Russia, vice We. L. Wivans
■ resigned.
On Monday, the 2d June, the election in
New Orleans for Mayor, Recorders, and Aldermen
will take place.
Duncan Robinson has been acknowledged by
I the President as the Consul of Belgium at Xor-
I folk, Virginia.
The Carolina Time* learns that on Tuesday morn
ing last a very destructive tire broke out in Char
lotte, X. C., which destroyed the American Hotel
and several other buildings. The loss is to
■ be heavy.
The Washington Sentinel says that Senator Sum
: nek’s bloody shirt has been sent to Boston, and
predicts ceremonies and a speech over it, similar
to those over the dead body of Caisar.
I-i?" The London correspondent of the New
j ork Tribune, of May 13tli, referring to English
j and American affairs, says :
“But at the same time everybody expects an
i amicable settlement, and I observe no malignity in
j the discussions which take place on the matter.
: There are two influences (besides, I hope, much
| higher ones), which will always make war with
| America improbable—the conservative fear of in
j ternnl troubles, and the liberal love of Republican
j institutions. 1 will always back these considera
: tions against the field, and I await the result per
j fectly cheerful.”
A New Presidential Candidate.—The Albany
I Time* says of Sumner, since the attack upon him :
j “It has made him the strongest man in the Re
publican party, and we should not be surprised if
it led to his nomination for President.”
Congressional.
M ashinuton, May 2?.-—The United States Sen
! ate to-day passed all the House Public Land Bills,
i A message was received by both Houses from the
President, announcing the" dismissal of Mr. Cramp
ton, the British Minister, and the revocation of the
r x.guaturs ot the British Consuls at New York,
Philadelphia and Cincinnati, and enclosing Mr!
Marcy’s reply to Lord Clarendon, which expresses
the gratification of the President at the conciliato
ry .spirit exhibited by Great Britain in disclaim
ing any intention of violating the laws of the Uni
ted State*, and expressing regret that any infring
[ ment of them should have occurred. The Presi
dent says that the explanation is satisfactory and
removes the main cause of complaint against the
British Government, but regrets that he cannot
concur in Lord Clarendon’s opinion that Mr. Cramp
tun and the Consuls were not implicated in the
breach of neutrality laws, and therefore deems it
proper that their relations with this Government
should cease. In taking this step, however, he docs
not intend to make any interruption in our Diplo
matic relations, but on the contrary is desirous of
keeping the two countries upon a friendly footing.
Mr. Ciampton’s dismissal was asked expressly on
account of his connection with the enlistment busi
ness, and the same reason holds good in the case
of the other Consuls. The House Committe on
Territories reported a proposition of Kansas as a
State. ,

Cutting Down. A late Governor used to toll a
story ot a famous sportsman, who not only made .
long shots in the field, but likewise at tht board.
In a word, he was fond of dealing somewhat in
the marvelous while recounting his exploits. Re
ing aware that he carried this practice to a i-atlitr
unwarrantable length, lie commissioned his favor- j
ite colored servant, Pete, to give him a hint '
when he found him stretching the truth too 1
Hindi.
One day , dining in company with sundry oilier ;
gentlemen, he told some prodigious large stories, !
and, among the rest, of a fox he had killed,
which had n tail twenty yards long. Honest Pete !
thought this quite too extravagant; and, as he \
stood behind his master’s chair, he gave hint a !
nudge.
Twenty, did 1 -■> ' Perhaps I’m a little too fast;
but il was all of fifteen.”
Pete gave him a second nudge.
“ Eh, let me .-e 'Twits ten, at least.”
\ third nudge.
i “ 'Twus every inch of five."
A fourth nudge.
“ 'Twas three, anyhow.”
A fifth nudge.
The sportsman took all these hints in good part j
until he received the last; when, thinking his ;
story was cut down quite enough, he turned sud
denly to his servant, and exclaimed:
“Why, confound it, l’ete, you won’t let mv fox
have any tail !”

FURTHER TESTIMONY.
from a letici received front a gen- t
J tleman iu Mobile: " Whilst requesting vou ’
to forward me another package of BLISS' DVS- ;
PEPTIC KEMEDA, ii cnch'se payment for both
packages,) allow me to thank yon moat sincerely j
for the chicfest among the many kindnesses and I
attentions for which I am your debtor. I mu*-t i
confess to you, that notwithstanding your endorse- j
incut ot it, 1 wa.- loath to believe that votir itictii
ciue was any better than the numerous specifics ’
and ‘certain cures - which I had before tried upon
the strength of newspaper representations, and
which proved to be worse than useless, stimulatin'*
the stomach for awhile, but, to leave it in a worse
condition than they found it. Tic- ‘Remedy’ has
in many cases worked like a charm, and the direc
tions accompanying it, 1 consider, arc worth more
to the invalid from Dyspepsia, than all the rules
for health that were ever printed It was with no :
little difficulty, o- mg to the inertia which for years j
had paralyzed my energies, that 1 entered upon
the treatment; but before the first week, what I
commenced with so much effort, I nta\ sa* rduc
t-ouce, became as necessary enjoyment to me. Iu i
short, notwithstanding my skepticism, I am now ‘
prepared fully to endorse all von have written me
1 regarding Bliss’ Dyspeptic Remedy, and shall not I
tail to do that recompense which I know* to be
most acceptable to you, of placing others in the !
I way of being relieved, as I have been."
