[Published by Request.] UNLOVED. Unloved! Unloved! is the scaring word, That feeds in withering breast; Unloved! unloved! and I feel its truth, As I sink to my lasting rest. This heart hath loved, with a faithful love, And still will love to the last; But oh ! to the faithful heart what a word. As in the lone blast of winter is heard, “ Unloved” —as I'm sinking fast. Ab ! yes I've loved. I’ve loved with truth. But I weep to find it in vain; I've loved, but alas! to the faltering word. A cold and a searing answer is heard, “ Unlovedl” comes back again. Unloved! Unloved! is the searing word That feeds in my withering breast; Unloved ! Unloved ! and I feel its truth As I sink to my lasting rest. ROMEO. YOUTH’S DEPARTMENT. Enigma.—l am composed of 25 letters.

Our young friends can try tbeirliandson it: I saw a pigeon making bread, I saw a girl composed of thread. I saw a towel one mile squat e, I saw a meadow in the air, I saw a rocket walk a mile, I saw a pony make a file. I saw a blacksmith in a box, I saw an orange kill an ox, I saw a butcher made of steel. I saw a pen-knife dance a reel, I saw a tailor twelve feet high, I saw a ladder in a pie, I saw an apple fly away, I saw a sparrow making hay, I saw a farmer like a dog, I saw a puppy mixing grog, 1 saw three men who saw these too, And will confirm w hat I tell you.

LOVE IN A STEEL TRAP BY THE COLONEL. “Love laughs at locksmiths,” we are told, I but rat-traps are no subject of laughter, ereu to the blind god himself, as I shall show you in the sequel of this brief story. “ But will you go to-night ?” “Yes, I will.” ; “And if I have old Bob behind the barn, at twelve, you'll be waiting inside, and we'll drive to New York and get married right straight off the reel I" ” Yes. When all the folks are in bed and asleep, I'll steal out of the washing-house door, go to the barn, get in. and disguise myself. When you coine. put in your finger, lift the latch, open the barn-door, and I’ll drop into . your arms lipe a ripe apple. Oh! Ido so love 'to run away ! Won't it be delightful!" The speakers were Joe Chivers and Mary Miller. 1 need not mention that they were lovers. Mary's lathe l- was a prosperous farmer in Connecticut, and Mary herself one of the ■ wildest, most light-headed, romantic, innocent, and affectionate creatures ever made after the i “almost divine” model of mother Eve. Joe was a genereus, impulsive youth, whose par ents had once seen flattering days, but had of late been unfortunate, and fallen into compara tive poverty. Farmer Miller, as he grew rich, grew am bitious. Mary was his only child, lie looked to her settlement in the world as a means of his own social advancement, and had already , selected, in his mind’s eye, a suitable match for her. Os course Joe's attentions, therefore, did not meet with his approval; and while he was unwilling to be though sordid enough to re ject Joe openly for his lack of means, he had I suggested to that young adventurer the pro priety of absenting himself altogether from Ma ry's attractive presence. This done, lie had as sured Mary of his resolution to dispose other hand according to his own notions of feminine happiness. I need not say that these facts, operating upon the mind of a thoughtless, loving, eccen tric, and spirited child, like Mary, had a pecul ; iar effect. That very moment she determined to marry Joe t Javers. He was evidently per secuted ? Persecution only made him the dear er to her. She liked him before, but now she ■ loved him. in fact, the more she thought of it, the more she was convinced that he was an angel, and that perfect idolatry on her part would only be an act of noble devotion. If Farmer Miller had been a sensible man, and at all disposed to study human nature, he ! would have adopted perhaps a very different I course towards his wayward daughter. He would have introduced his proposed son-in-law, and forbidden her. at the same time, to in- ■ dulgc in the slightest regard for him. The I probability is that she would have fallen des perately in love with him at first s ; ght, and given Joe liisccagc without further ceremony; but Fanner Miller had away of his own. in all things, and ho was satisfied that, .should Mary feel disposed to play him a trick, he was quite able to manage a Roland of her (diver. The very next morning after he had, in this manner, “opened his mind,” as ho called it, to I his daughter, he luckily happened to see Joe Clavers make his fugitive entrance into the kitchen where Mary was busily at work, but not singing as usual, for she was brooding over I the parental cruelty. Farmer Miller did not permit ninny minutes toelapse before he had placed himself in the wash-house, which adjoined the kitchen, so that he might hear all that passed between the discomfited lovers, lie did hear the dialogue ( with which I have commenced this hiatoriette. lie possessed himself of the plan of the contem -1 plated elopement, and lie was satisfied. “ She is going to run away, is she f” ho said 'to himself. “I ll teach fu'm a lesson, I warrant me; and as for the little gipsey, I'll settle Aer business very speedily.” After tea that evening, Mary retired to her little room, her heart beating with anxiety for the approach of midnight. Her surprise may be imagined when, half an hour afterwards, she found herself a prisoner! She tried the handle of the lock. It would not move! What | was to be done I Could it have been fastened on her by accident I She called for her lather, and he came. "What's the matter. Mary ?” was his excla ,' mation, without, however, openingthe chamber door. ‘•My door is fast, and I can't get out!” “Very well, dear,” was his reply; “go to bed, like a good girl, and I'll open it in the morning.” She knew it was not of the slightest us. - to remonstrate. He must, by some means, have discovered her design. She could do nothing but weep and bite tier lips with vexation. The next thing the farmer did was to visit i the barn. As usual, it hud a lage wagon door, in which was cut for comnion use a smaller en ; trance. The latter was only secured by the ordinary latch inside, which was lifted, in the ! customary w ay, by thrusting a linger through a small hole made in the door, beneath the latch, for the purpose. Fanner Miller remained in the barn long enough to arrange matters to suit hr private purpose, and then coming out. through the sta ble that adjoined, or rather lay partly beneath it, he walked quietly home, laughing heartily to himself. He first listened at his daughter’s door, and finding all quiet, retired to his own • room and went to sleep. Just about midnight, a horse and wagon 1 drew silently up, on the road, behind Farmer Miller’s barn. Joe Clavers got stealthily out of the vehicle, jumped the fence, and crept cau tiously around to the door of the building in question. How happy he felt! In another moment, Mary would be his own! in the morning, she would be his darling little wife. Farmer Miller would storm, of course; but the farmer loved his daughter dearly. He was proud of her. He would, therefore, relent, forgive, and ble~s them .' Full of these delightful anticipations, Joe thrust his finger in the hole of the barn-door to reach the latch, but All! how he yelled with pain. A steel-trap, adroitly placed on the inside, so as to catch any obtruding article, had snapped, and his bleeding finger was held fust with its it on teeth! It was a cold night, and Joe's feelings may be conjectured as he stood there, shivering and shaking, hour after hour, unable to move from the spot, held a prisoner by the savage instru ment, his lacerated finger occasioning him ex quisite agony, and his heart fairly sinking into his boots with the conviction that daybreak would only expose him to the farmer's indig nation and the village ridicule. Just at dawn. Farmer Miller, chuckling over the success of his rune, went down to the barn. I There still stood Joe. ami not farofl' the horse and wagon. I need not say bow Joe implored pardon, and promised everything that could be desired to purchase it and silence, f armer ! Miller and he finally closed a bargain. Joe was ’ released. Nay, more, Farmer Miller gave him ' one hundred dollars, and Joe was iu New York, before noon, en route for lowa. As fur Mary—this incident occurred two years ago, and I have just kissed her first baby. : She pleased her father, and seems to have pleased herself iu consequence, quite as much. —Sunday Timet.

A man named Cassady was on trial in one of ! the western courts for maliciously stabbing another named Cole, when one Buek Bryant was called as the principal witness in support of the indictment. Being duly sworn, he pro- i ' ceeded to give the following testimony : “Well, gentlemen, it w.aseiection day—'twas a dark, cloudy, wet drizzly sort of day. and says I to my old woman, ‘1 believe I'll godown • to Ringgold, and 'posite my vote.’ And says ! my old woman to me, ‘Well, Buck, ns it is a r sort of dark, cloudy, wet sort of a drizzly dav,’ said she, “hadn’t you better take your twnbrilN' ■ So I told the old woman.

Says Ito Mr. Cole, "For why ?’ Says he, ‘He's got my umbrill.’ (The witness was here interrupted by the Court, and told to confine himself to the actual affray be tween the prisoner and Cole, the prosecutor.— : In answer to which, the witness remarked, in 1 a tone of indignant remonstrance, ‘Well, now Mr. Judge, you bold on, for I am sworn to tell I i the truth, and I am a gwine to tell it my own , . way—so 'taint for you to say nothing more j ! about it;’ whereupon the Court and Common- | wealth’s Attorney, being anxious to get rid of : the witness on any terms, told him to go on | ’ and tell the tale in his own way.) ‘Well, as I was a going on to say, ’twas on "lection day.— 1 !

MISCELLANY. The Cessation of Manlfactcrinu Indus- | try at tub Nomi.—lt is really sail tocontem- I plate the extent of the destitution occasioned : by the suspension of the manufacturing inter -1 ests throughout the North. According to the ! census of 1850, there were in the New Eng land States 300,000 operatives engaged in man ufacturing cotton and wollen goods; in New i York 200,000; in Pennsylvania 130,000; and in all other States 300.000. The cessation of this immense interest, thowing out of employ ment so many hands, a portion of w hom have families to support, must be dreadful in its con sequences, SixoriAn Marriage—ln Litchfield, Gray son county, Tennessee, on the 12th ult., by- Judge Valentine Yates, John Robert Wells to Miss Emetine Jeanes, of Gray-town.— The bi c is twenty-eight years old, thir ty-six inches high, and weighs forty-five pounds.

Ol’Exationß at Sebastopol.—One of the op | erators at the harbor at Sebastopol, writes to | the Philadelphia Press that there is no possi bility of raising any of the sunken vessels un- I til next spring.

Ono of them, the “Sagodell,” requir ed five thousand pounds of powder to demolish i her. New States.—Three new States will apply i for admission into the Union during the next session of Congress, to-wit : Minnesota, Kan sas anil Oregon. When these are admitted, the number of States will be thirty-four, and the number of Senators sixty-eight.

It may seem strange, but it is a fact, that ! men generally are more afraid of women than l women are of men, and fearing to ‘break the ' ice’ is a fruitful cause of old bachelorism. The bridal veil originated in the custom of performing the nuptial ceremony under a ' square piece of cloth, held over the bridegroom . and the bride, to conceal the blushes ot the • latter.

This word represents ideas and emotions which have an important influence on all the affairs of this world, and indicates a condition of life that will eventuate in a blessing or a curse to tile parties personally interested, ac cording as their views and feelinrs harmonize or disagree. The marriage institution was de signed to preserve the virtue of the race, and to divide the human family into small commu nities for the convenience of government and the augmentation of general happiness. It was not nn enactment of y csterday. i.or an in vention of man. Its author is God himself, and Paradise was the place ii: which the holy rite was first solemnized. Adam was the first bridegroom, and Eve the first bride. In the pure atmosphere of innocency were "ihci/ twain made onefleth." .Several facts may be affirmed of this prim itive marriage, which are worthy of special notice: First, it was the union of two rirtuous, iin- : corrupted parties. The man was virtuous as well as the woman. Under«t/cA circumstances what moral sublimity invests the sacred union! Secondly, the man was older than the wo man. Here isanexanipleof fitness and proprie ty to be followed throughout nil time. Thirdly, this union was a happy one till the tempter was permitted to invade the precincts of the family circle. Then came sin, sorrow, and troubles of every kind. Let those who would be happy, repel mischief makers from their presence before they have the opportu nity to work evil. Finally, this union was to be permanent un der all circumstances. No separation «ns contemplated on the happening of possible eontingencies. “ They twain were one flesh." “ Male and Female." ns God had cni.ted them, and were thus to continue under a!! the vary ing phases and changes of their mortal life.— The idea of a disseverance of tliese sacred ties for any cause whatever, was not provided for in the original institution of matrimony . Di vorces at a later period were simply permitted to accommodate the peculiar obstinacy of the carnal heart under the Jewish disjieiisation. i but this general permission was revoked in the days of L'hrist. and separations justified only in cases of a specific violation of the inrrriage contract for life. It should therefore not lie thoughtlessly entered into, but when once assumed by mutual consent, it should be considered and regarded ns a perpetual union. It may also be remarked in this connexion, that the permission to separate for the cause mentiomsl by the Savior, extends, in the opin ion of some, only to separation. It does not imply the right of either party to marry again, during the life time of the other. This corres- | |n>n<ls exactly w ith the teaching of the Apos tle Paul, who says, virtually , that the marriage tie can only be broken by the death of one . of the parties. Nor would it be d'uliciilt to prove from the Scriptures—both of the Old Testament and the New —that Christiane ought to marry neme but Chrutiane. But we shall not enlarge on this feature of matrimony, lest some interested disciple charge us with teaching “Old Itand inarkism" in a new form.— Christian Jnder. INHALATION IN CONSUMPTION. Bronchitis, Laryngitis, and other Bien-ases of the Chest and Throat, succtsnfully treated by the Inhala tion of Medicated Vapors and Powders, by Absorp tion and Constitutional Treatment, as practiced at . the Stuyi esant Medical Institute, New York City. r | , HE unprecedented success which ha* attended 1 thia method of trefttmg.diseaaea ofthe Lung* and Throat, has induced us to depart from our usual course and avail ourselves of the columns of the Press, in order to bring it to the knowledge of such us may be laboring under, or predisposed to such affections. The dawn of a brighter day has at length arrived for the consumptive: the doctrine of the incurability of Consumption having passed awav. We have indubi table proofs in our possession that Consumption in all its stages can be cured ; in the first, by tubercular absorption ; in the second, bv the transformation of the tubcrcule into chalky and calcareous concretion*; in the third, by cicatrices, or scat s. Those wedded to the opinions of the past may assert that, even now, 1 Consumption is incurable, such are behind the age. To all, this great truth must be apparent, viz: that the medicine inhaled i t the form of Vapor or Powder directly into the Lungs must be much more effect ne than tnat taken into the stomach, where the diseases 'do not exist. The advantage of inhalation in Con sumption and Throat Diseases is, that medicines in haled in the form of Vapor are applied <iirectly to the Lungs, where the diseases exi.-t ; the stomach is thus left nee to aid in restoring health, by administering i to it healthy, life giving food. There is no case no hopeless that Inhalation will not reach ! The means, I too, are brought within the reach of all; the manner of administering the Vapors being so simple that the 1 invalid is never required to leave home, where the hand of friendship and affection adds so much to aid the physician’s effort*. The Inhaling method is soothing, safe and speedy, and consists in th#* administration of medicine in such a manner that they are conveyed into the Lungs in the form of Vapor, and produce their action at the seat of the disease. Its practical success is destined to revolutionize the opinions of the medical world, and establish the entire curability of Consumption. I earnestly appeal to the common sense of all af flicted with Lung Diseases to’embrace at once the ad vantages of inhalation, and no longer apply mvdi- • ernes to the unoffending stomach. I claim for inha lation a place among the priceless gifts that Nature and Art hath given us, “that our days may be long ' in the land,” and as the only Ark of Refuge for the Consumptive; a method not only rational, but sim . pie and efficacious. Such of the profession that have adopted Inhala tion, have found it etlicacious in the highest degree, , and working wonders in many desperaie cases; in verity, a signal triumph of our art over this fell de- ‘ stroyer of our species.

But, in my humble judg ment, there is Lu| onu offU'tutd mcanft of preserving .he Union consistently with the constitutional rights »f the South, and therefore I will zealously advocate ' ‘hepolirs and principle* of that good old Democratic party which has been our only anchor *’f safety during the past, and now staudii our only hupq for the fu ture.
