How interesting he appears 10 every
feeling mind. A child robbed Of its moth.
er cxcites universal commisseration and
affection from every bosom. We look
forward with anxiety to every future pc.
rod of his life and our prayers and our
hopes attend every step Of his journey.
We mingle our tears with his, on the
grave Of her, whose maternal heart has
ceased to beat; for we feel that he is be-
reaved Of the friend and guide of his
youth; his father would but cannot sup
ply her loss. In vain the whole circle of
his friendships, bland their efforts TO al
leviate his sorrows, and to fill the place
occupied by departed worth a mother
must be missed every moment, by a child
who has known and rightly valued one,
when she sleeps in the grave. No hands
feel so soft as hers; no voice sounds so
sweet f; no smile is so pleasant Never
shall he find again in this wild wilder
ness, such sympathy, such fondness, such
fidelity, such tenderness, as he experen-
ced from his mother The whole world
was moved with compassion for that mo-
therless' child, but the whole world can
not supply her place to him.-Beauties Of

ser Of some ofthe rich articles with which
the table was decorated. He drew from
his pocket a ten dollar bill, and after
looking for some time steadfastly at the
lady, he laid the money upon the table,
and was about to withdraw. "Will you
not take some article for your money!"
said Mrs o. The honest tar turned a
gain towards her, and looked-then, with
an expressive hitch, sheered off, saying:
"no; Ive had my moneys worth"
This anecdote bears some affinity to,
and is not less complimentary than, that
which is told Of the Duchess Of Devon
shire, ut whose eyes the coalman asked
leave to light his pipe. That celebrated
lady always declared that after the coal
mans compliment, all others were vap,d.

TOOTH ACHE,

Prepared under The Direction of DR. HAM
ILToN, No. "a, Hgh-st., Providence.
A REMEDY which is capable of
IA aflording immediate relief to the
excrucia'ng pain Of Tooth Ache,
without the slightest pain being produc-
ed. 1t may be used when the gum and
cheek are inhamed, so as to preclude the
possibility ofextraction. In cases where
the diseased fang remains, and when the
carries faces the adjacent tooth, it obvi-
ates the necessity Of extraction in all ca
ses Of hollow teeth; in a word, it will re-
lievc vast deal of human suffering and
supcrcede most painful operation.

of its efficacy, but it is deemed unnec

FAME.

FAME.
Say, who would court The hubble fame,
The fleeing vision Of an hour
A breathing nothing airy name,
As passing as an April shower
IT'S like the harp's last dying swell,
That flung around its magic tones;
A moment on the ear il fell,
Then sunk like autumn's whitening means.
IT'S like the dread night meieor's glare.
That leads 10 lure oer trackless wild
Delusive phantom Of the air
Thou lead'st man as the spor,ive child
Is led by painted flowers TO roam,
Or chase the gaudy summer 6y,.
Till weaned by pleasure from his home,
Mid bowling storms, from friends to die
The hero courts its Pickering blaze,
Famed by ambitions sweeping breath;
Say, can he hear his eouniry's praise
Entombed in dua, spbdued by death!
Can fame enerve his withered hand
Call back the vigor once that hurled,
When vengeance waved the conquermg brand,
A slave or despot from the world'
All. no. his warfare now is done;
Yet for his tolls shall time record
Vain trophies in the battle won
A shattered shield, broken sword
The patriot, 100, whose soul could dare
The downfall Of oppression's laws,
Will proudly claim his feeble share
or Etme-a Senates loud applause.
Guenched is the spark that off would soar,
On Freedoms pinions borne along;
OF gaping crowd and rabbe's roar;
Vain idol, and the theme Of song
Now buried in the gulph of years;
No record yield his silent grave;
broken urn alone appears,
Like wreck ON Oceans boundless wave
The Poets name shall pass away,
Forgotten be his choicest theme,
Like rosy clouds at closing day,
As shadowy as bis own bright dream.
Now torn the one gay-woven wreath.
Twined for the crest of hero brave;
And mute the lips that once would breathe
A requiem on the Poets grave
Mans life Is but passing dream
OfJoy and sunshine, blight and care;
Joy transient AS u rainbow CLEAN,
And dimmed by storms of dark despair.

Gently published, give very pleasing
idea of his private and domestic charac-
ter. of which little has heretofore been
generally known. We are inclined to
believe that he has been commonly re-
garded as man of far more prudence
than amiable feeling, and as possessing
that GOODNESS of temperament which is
only another name for selfshness; but
these letters evnce kind and active in
terest in the welfare Of his friends, which
no one who reads them can believe to be
insincere. 1t was remarked of him in
biographical sketch, lately published in
Eng land that after he had attained wealth
and influence, he appeared to have had
little intercourse with his brothers and
sisters; but we learn from this volume,
that Of his twelve brothers and sisters
who came to years of maturity, all but
two died before he became known to the
world. His intercourse with his surviv-
ing sister, who lived in this city, was af-
I |foot;unat4 and unremittaa until tho oioeo
of his life. The following extract Of a
letter addressed by him to the Rev. DIR.
Lathrop, Of this city, in 1888, will be
found interesting - Boston Patriot

quaintance TO converse with. But when

call either necessary or convenient; the

and the unpleasantness Of sea voyages,

Atlantic eight times, and made many
smaller trips, does not recollect his hav.
ing ever been at sea without taking Q
firm resolution never to 60 to sea again
