The Little Outcast.
Mayn’t I stay, ma’m ? I’ll do anything
you give me—cut wood, go after water,
and do all your errands.”
The troubled eyes of the speaker filled
with tears. It was a lad that stood at the
outerdoor, pleading with a kindly looking
woman; who still.seemed to doubt his
good intentions.
Tbe cottage sat by itself on a bleak
moon or what in Scotlend would have
been called such. The time was near the
end of November, a fierce wind rattled
the bougbs of tbe only naked tree near
the bouse, and filed with a shivering sound
into the narrow doorway, as if seeking for
warmth at the blazing fire within.
Now and then a snow flake touched
with its soft chill the cheek of the listener,
or whitened the angry redness of the poor
boy’s benumbed hands.
The woman was evidently loth to grant
the boy’s request, and the peculiar loook
stamped upon his features would have
suggested to any mind an idea or depravi
ty far beyond his years.
But her mother’s heart could not resist-
the sorrow in those large, but not hand
some grey eyes.
“ Come in, at any rate, till the guideman
comes home; there sit down by the fire;
you look perished with cold.” And she
drew a rude chair up tq the warmest cor
ner then, suspiciously glancing at the child
from the corners of her eyes, she continued
setting the table for supper.
Presently came the tramp ofheavy shoes
the door swung open with • quick jerk
and the “guideman” presented himself
weary with labor.
A look of intelligence passed between
his wife and himself—he, too, scanned the
boy’s face with an expression not evincing
satisfaction, but, nevertheless, made him
come to the table, and then enjoyed the
zeal with which he dispatched his supper.
Day after day passed, and yet the boy
begged'to be kept “only till to morrow;”
so the good couple, after due consideration
concluded that so long as he was docile
and worked so heartily, they would retain
him.
One d^y, in the middle of winter, a ped
dler long accustomed to trade at the cot
tage, made his appearance and disposed of
his goods readily, as he had been waited
for. ^
- “Yok have a boy out there splitting
wood, I see,” said he pointing to the yard.
“Yes do you know him f ’
“I have seeu him,” replied the peddler,
evasively.
• “And where?—who is he!—what is
he ?”
“ A jail bird I” and the peddle# swung
his pack over his shoulder; “that boy
young as he looks, I saw' him in Court
myself, and heard his sentenec—‘ten
months; he’s a hard one—you’d do well
to look keerful arter him.”
Oh Hthere was something so horrible in
the word ‘jail.” the poor woman trembled
look up, and from henceforth find tn her j
a mother! Yes, she even put her arms *-
put 1
bout the neck of that forsaken, deaerted
child—she poured from her mother’s heart
sweet womanly words of counsel and ten
derness,
Oh, now sweet was her sleep that night
—how soft was her pillow! She had lin
ked a poor suffering heart to hen by the
most silken, the strongest band of love.—
She had plucked some thorns from the
path of a little 'sinningbut striving aortal
Nona but angels could witness her holy
joy, and not envy.
Did the boy leave her?
Never, he is with her still; s vigorous
manly, promising youth. The low char
acter of his countenance has given place to
an open, pleasing expression, with depth
enough to make it an interesting study.—
His foster-father is dead, and his good fos
ter-mother is aged and sickly, but she
knows no want The once poor outcast
is her only dependence now, and nobly
does he repay the trust.
“He that saveth a soul from death,
hideth a multitude of sias.”
“ Worms” on the Pace.
An English editor informs a correspon
dent, who signs himself “ A Troubled
One,” as follows:
“ Little black specks are occasionally
observed upon the nose and forehead of
some individuals. These specks, when
they exist in any number, are a cause of
much unsightliness. They are minute
corks, if we may use the term, of coagu
lated lymph, which close the orifices of the
pores or exhalent vessels of the skin. On
the skin immediately adjacent to them be
ing pressed with the finger nails, these
bits of coagulated lymph will come from
it in a vernacular form. They are vulgar
ly called “ flesh worms,” many persons
fancying them to be living creatures.—
These may be got rid of, and prevented
from returning, by washing with tepid
water, by proper friction with a towel,
and by the application of a little cold
cream.^ The longer these little piles are
permitted to remain in the skin, more firm
ly they become fixed ; and after a time,
when they lose their moisture, they are
converted into little bony spines, as dense
as bristles, and having much of that char
acter. They should be thoroughly but
cautiously squeezed, says another author
and, on retiring to rest, a paste should b.
applied" to the part affected. Recipe for
the paste; Take one.ounce of powdered
bitter almonds, one ounce of barley flour,
and enough honey to make the above in
gredients into paste. There is another and
still more simple remedy, which you may
prefer. Bathe the spots several times a
day with lukewarm water and a sponge,
rubbing tbe sponge over r pieca of yellow
soap. There is a healing power in soap
distinct from its cleansing properties."
Thn delusion has passed away. Those
who believed that J. C. Breckinridge
would carry Kentucky have seen their
great mistake. They have seen McClarty S
beaten so wofully as to leave no hope for | that f be eeoedera would
Breckinridge. It is no longer poaaible to the Vice-PTwidenry ■ the author < the

Democracy; all true Democrats must
frankly admit they were deceived. They
believed that the strength of Mr. Breckin
ridge in Kentucky would be hr greater
than the small number of votea given to
McClarty. They relied upon rbe peat
popularity of Mr. Breckinridge, upon ap
peals to the State pride of the people, and
sectional feeling in his faTor. They relied
upon the effect of having speakers all over
tbe State on the stump for McClarty, while
no electors were yet on the part of Doug
las ; and they may have relied, in some
degree, upon the use of large sums of mon
ey in betting and otherwise; but, after
they witnessed the disastrous result—the
defeat of McClarty by an overwhelming
majority, notwithstanding all these advan
tages—they could no longer have a hope
for Mr. Breckinringe in his own State, or
even in Fayette, his own county; and
what will be their dismay, when the fact
is made known, that a large part—nearly
half of the votes for McClarty—were giv
en him by the friends of Douglas. He has
received thousands of votes of that class
of Democrats in the State; yet his vole
will fall nearly 40,000 below that of Gov
ernor Magoffin, who, it will be remember
ed, was nominated upon the Cincinnati
platform—non-intervention by Congress
with slavery in the States or Territories.
Now, we are happy to see the honest mas
ses of the Breckinridge Democracy are be
ginning to come out for Douglas and John
son. All will rally again around the same
timo-honored banner,. and victory will a-
gainreward their efforts.—Louisville Dem

Debates 9th June, 1836,' ia fcuadaefngn-
lariy eloquent apeacb from Caleb Gushing
member from Massachusetts i* which hn
argues with great vehemence against thn
admission of Arkansas, on no other gmoai
than that har State Constitution contains
a clause protecting slavery and tbe right!
of slaveholders. He says:
“This provision of the Constitution of
Arkansas is condemned by those whom 1
represent on this occasion anti-republicam
as wrong on general principles in genetnl
and as unjust to the iuhabiUoU of tb#
nen-slavcholding States. They object to
it as being in effect, a provision to render
slavery perpetual in the State of Arkan
sas.
I concur ia repudiating such a clausa.
* I cannot by any vote of miae, rati
fy or sanctify a Constitution of government
which undertakes in this way to forealean
in advance the progresvof civilisation and
liberty forever.”
“We are engaged in the creation at in
fant empires. What we shall new dn is
to act upon generations yet unborn to tbe
end of time. There is no appreciation ef
the consequences which lie enveloped Ilk*
the minute germ of the springing seed, ia
tlie work of this hour. At such time, shall
we with the accents of liberty perpetually
on our lips; shall we whose very institu

doctrine of human rights; shall we the
representatives of this people of the United

part of his history.
Ashamed and distressed, the child huDg
down his head; his cheeks seemed burst
ing with his hot blood ; his lips quivered,
and anguish was painted vividly upon
his forehead, as if the words were branded
in his flesh.
“ Well,” he muttered, his whole frame
relaxing as if a burden of guilt or joy had
suddenly rolled off; “I may as well go to
ruin at once—there’s no use in my try
ing to be better—everybody hates and
despises me—nobody cares about me. I
may as well go to ruin at once!”
“Tell me,” saidAhe woman, who stood
off hr enough for flight, if that should be
necessary; “bow came you togosoyonng
to that dreadful place ? Where was your
mother?”
“Ob P* exclaimed the boy, with a burst
of grief that was terrible to behold, “Oh I
I han’t got no mother—oh! han’t had no
mother ever since I was a baby. If Fd
only had a mother,” he continued, his an-
gnish growing vehement, and the tears
gashing out of his strange ^looking grey
eyes, “I wouldn’t a been bound out, and
kicked and cuffed and laid on to with
whips; I wouldn't ’a been saucy, and got
knocked down, and then ran a way and
stole because I was hungry. Oh! I hain’t
got no mother—I haven'k had no mother
sumo I waa a baby!”
Tho strength was all gone from the poor
hoy, and bo sank on his knees sobbing
great, choking sobs, and rnbbraggtbe hot
tears away with his knuckles. And did
that woman stand there unmoved ? Did
she coldly bid hint pack op and be off—
the jail bird?
Not, no—she bad been a mother, and
though an her children dept under the
cold sod in the churchyard, was a mother
still. ’
She went op to that poor boy. not to
“ John, I have servants at home, and

The consequence was John became very
attentive during the few days the gentle
man remained. On going away the gen
tleman called John up and presented him
with a dollar or two, which he thus
knowledged:
“ Thank’e massa. Southern gemi

The New York Herald says that
the census returns indicate a population
for that city, within the limits proper, of
nine hundred end fifty thousand—an in

The same mail that brings us this intel
ligence also informs- us that the Breckin
ridge men of Washington, * few days
since, made a demonstration upon Asms
Kendall to induce him to preside at one of
their meetings. De—
“ Quietly assured them that, having al
ways been a Democrat and a Union man,
and in favor of regular nominations, he
was too old to change his course, and de
clined tho delicate office tendered to him.”
A friend end relative of Hr. Kendall, who
was stopping with the venerable politician
and statesman at the time Judge Douglas
delivered his last great speech in the Sen
ate, states that he read the speech with
great interest, and when he had finished
it, declared with great earnestness and
emphasis that tbe speech contained tbe
doctrine upon which tbe Democratic party
must stand or be crushed to atoms There
can be no doubt that Mr. Kendall is in fa
vor of the election of Senator Douglas.—
So, also, we are told, is Chief Justice-Ta
