Anecdotc of Gen. Houston-About two
years ngo Gen. Houston, in company with
two others, left Nashville, Tenn. for Texas,
They travelled several days through marsh
es and over mountains, among christians as
well rs savages, without any thing very in
tcrcsting or marvellous crossing their path
Late one beautiful moonlight evening
they entered a village, the country town of
-, State of -, where they took lodg-
ings for the night; the news was very soon
spread over the town that Gov. Houston,
from Tennessee, had taken lodgings at
where, in short time, he was greeted by
Judge and jury, counsel and client, Uhc
court being it, session,) by the accomplished
female, as well rs the backwoods rustic, all
of whom received the salutation of gentle
man and scholar in the person of Gen. III.
There was an old man, with his interesting
and beautiful daughter, who seemed to
claim the attention ofthe general more than
all the other visitors. There was an ex-
preston in the mans look differing from
the rest-he looked language which said,
"can you help me p aud echo answered
from the heaving breast of the daughter can
yOu help!
The old man, many years ago, had taken
up large tract of land in that country. on
which he settle with his young family, and
which, through industry, he had converted
into very extensive and profitable pan,a-
ton, but had, inadvertently, omitted to enter

could be elected, and legally too, set to work
had the farm entered in his own name, got
IA writ of ejectment, had it served, and IN an
hour the old man and Instantly were turn
ed out of house and home," almost pen-
nyless. The old man entered suit in the
court for the recovery of his lost home. but
having no money, he had no friends (bow
truc.) The general listened to his tale of
woe, and infimdted that he would helm ON
the morrow, as on that day the case would
be decided.
II was u delightful morning, the sun shopc
chceringly but the old man scarcely ie, his
influence, true, he thought lilile light had
broken in on The gloom of his mind-per-
haps he may come to my help, but alas
have no money, and Counsel do not often
labor for noucht-during these rcveries the
court was caIled--,he Counsel for the de.
fendant opened an appeal to the jury on the
legality Of his clients claim to the farm and
labored long and hard in defence Of his plea

were incontroyertIble--durin this time

had not been as good as his intimation-,he
Counsel was obout closing his appeal, and
in all probability the decision wonld go
against the plantiff-hark rustling noise
is heard--a move is in the crowd-a tall
genteel parsonage enters--the old man lifts
his eye and recognizes the Goyernor-he
steps forward, introduces himself to the
court, volunteers for the old man-all eyes
were upon him, and when the words " Gen
tlemen of the jury" fell from his lips, the
current of opinion began to change, there
was an JUNCTION in the words to which the
inmates Of that house were unaccustomed
he proceeded eloquently, feeIingIy-his
words fell on the listeners like the rushing
of many waters--the white hankerchiefs of
the ladies were soon brought into requisi-
stern jurors were seen to throw
away the briny drop-the judge changed
his position frequentIy-anon The whole
house, judge and jury, counsel and client,
pectators--all-were suffused in tears
he closed his arguments, his eloquent and
his impressive appeal to the jury-walked
out, and the jury without leaving their box:

MUsTAcHIos.-A friend OF ours tells an
amusing story Of Commodore Elliot and his
officers.
During his cruise in the Constitution, he
touched at Havre, and allowed many of
his midshlpmen to visit Paris. Or their
return they all busted themselves in cultiva-
ting mustachios. The Commodore was
vexed at discovering their mimmickry ofthe
French dandies but was not inclined to
speak to them on so trifling subject. lie
sent for his steward aud ordered him to fol-
low the fashion of his middes. In week
the steward had far surpassed the officers
in the uxuriance Of his fringes, and they,
indignant at his impertinence in daring to
initiate them, took him to account in no We
ry gentle manner. But when the grinning
blackee told them, that it was no fault of his.
but that he acted under the orders of the
Commodore, they rushed to their quarters
and shaved off the filthy appendages, and the
mustachio was left &" alone in his
glory."-

THE VOICE OF GOD.

fhe holy voice Of God-'ts heard
When awful thunder peals around,
When the huge rocks, by lightninss Scared.
Fall crashing TO the trembling ground;
When forests tremble at his nod
Then do we hear the voice of God!
In the light breathing Of the breeze,
That slirs the quiverng aspen tree
IN the low murniur Of the seas,
And in the winds soft minstrelsy
When waves the tall grass on the sod
In these we hear the voice Of God
When loudly raves the winter storm,
And snow comes on its white wings down,
When darkening clouds the heavens deform,
And ealess trees thr ough the forestwreaths frown
Then DER the earth he shakes his rod
That tempest is the voice Of God
There is still small voice within
Our hearts, that speaks of crimes forgiven
That bids us leave the paths Of sin,
And tells us how to seek for heayeni
This guides us through life's thorny road
This surely is the voice of God

A Singular Narafire. A child, named
Carlo Francingo, arrived in Malta twenty
four years ago, the being about three years
old, with a Trieste woman and another boy
both Of whom she said were hers. She came
in search of her husband, master of ira
ding vessel, from whom she was subsequent
ly separated. She took up her residence in
Malta, and kept toleraoe respcctable c
school, and was enabled by that means to
obtain competency for herself and the
two boys, aud to pay for their education.
Carlo became a great proficient in Ian
guages, and at an early are, understood
Maltese, Italian, German Spanish, and
English. lie was engaged by Mr.. II. here
as clerk, and being rather an able cores
pondcnt, became amanucnsis for several of
the Maltcs sc merchants, not so highly gifted.
Among them, an old gentleman named
Grech, about eight months ago, employed
him to write "a letter to Geaoa, which, rs

The Philadelphia Ledger, in commen-
ting upon the recent trial of Robinson,
made the following just reflection:
Unfortunately for virtuous women, while
they hunt down the frail of their own sex
with the ferocity of tigers, barring forever
against them the door to amendment, and
and driving them to perpetual sin, through
the torture of perpetual dishonor, they re-
gard with an eye of tender forgiveness, and
too often of secret cxultation, the abomina-
BILE perfidics, the blasting, whitening, soul
destroying treacheries of men. Instead OF
rccoiing from the seducer as from the touch
of pollution, they exult in his preference,
and glory in conquest of him.

There is good sense in the following par
agraph from the Du Buque Visiter-a pa
per published West of the Mississippi.
The editor is evidently warm hearted and
gallant man, who wishes to see even hand
ed Justice metcd out to the faultless portion
of the human race. The editors name is
J. King-perhaps he is Joking.
"There is custom in the New Eng md
States that is very unjust and even cruel.
We alude to the imprudent, the indiscreet,
and the unequal conduct of parents send
ing their sons to the Far West and keep
ing their daughters to pine in single bles-
sedness' at home. If such an unnatural
course should continue a few years, their
population must consist of old maids.

Po,oer of inteliect.-" There is a certain
charm about great superiority of intellect
that winds into deep affections, which a
much more constant and even amiabIity of
madness in lesser men, often fails to reach.
Genius makes many enemies, but it makes
sure friends-friends who forgive much,
who endure long, who exact little; they
partake of the character of deciples as well
as friends. There fingers about the human
heart strong inclination to look upward
to revere; in this inclination of royalty,
and also of the worship and Immortality
which was rendered so cheerfully to the
great of old. And in truth, it is divine
pleasure to admire! admiration seems in
some measure to appropriate to ourselves the
qualities it honors in others. We wed-ve root
ourselves to the natures we love so to con-
template, and their life grows part of ouI
own. Thus when a great man, who has
cngrossed our thoughts, our conjectures,
our homage, dies, a.gap seems suddenly left
in the world, a wheel in the mechanism of
our being appears abruptly .tlled; por-
how many pure, high, generous
sentiments it contains die, with him."

of making boards was to split the logs with

was, it was no easy thing to persuade The
world that it could be done in any better

in the fifteenth century. II is amusing to
see bow the aversion to labor saving mach
