THE TEST OF BENEvOLENCE.
SHORT AND TRUE STORY.
s.The b nd that VIII pei away the tear of want,
The heart tina, me ted at anotliei's woe


..The md that wiped way the tear of want,
The heart tina, me ted al anotbei's woe
Were his. and bies,i" fo owed HIM"
David Wentworth had the kindest ot
hearts. There vas neither mcte nor bound
to his beDevolence, except inability. And
happy was any man who had the tythe of the
prayers that were offered up for the welfare
Of my friend, by the unfortunate and wrctcheC
whom his hand had relieved.
speak Of prayers-ior il was the only re
ward he sought, and of course the only re-
ward he obtained; mean here--but forget
David was paying attention to an excellen
young lady Of his native city. She wa,
wealthy, beautiful and accomplished, and
consequently had many suitors. Among
them were richer and nobler lin extraction
mean) and handsomer than David, but MIN
porte, there was a kind of frank hearted,
straight -forwardness about my friend, that
could not fail to carry him somewhere near
the heart of his discerning mistress, even if
an emperor had been his rival.
The young lady in question hit upon pro.
ject TO put the characters of her lovers TO a
test. She had come across a poor widow
with family in distress, in one Of her be-
nevolent excursions, and the idea occurred to
her that it might be good opportunity to
ascertain the stuff her lovers hearts were
made Of Letters were forthwith indited
setting forth the good woman's tale, and for.
warded to the different gentlemen in the
widows name, requesting an answer and as
sistance.
The first reply was lecture on idleness
and begging, and concluded with the infor
nation that the writer was not accustomed to
give to those he did not know. This was
from $4,000 year! The second advised
her TO apply to some Of the benevolent socie-
ties whose duty il was to relieve those who
were truly in want. This was from one who
had great reputation for benevolence-w
had taken the leading part in several chari-
table associations, aud whose pharasaical
liberality had been blazoned in the Gazette.
The lady thought that, interested as he was
in these institutions, he displayed a very
commendable reluctance about taking the
business out Of their hands. A third from a
good hearted and generous kind of a fellow
enclosed her FIVE dollar bill with his com.
plimepts. Several took no notice Of the gooc
woman's petition. But there was another
answer which the lady read with far different
feelings. II was from David-from $500 9
year-snd need not say, like himself kind
and consoling. Il spoke Of the writer's mar.
row means, and also Of the principle he had
adopted, Of never giving unless persuaded oI
the worthiness Of the object, aud concluded
by requesting an interview. "If" said he, 81

der storm at Louisville, on the 2lst ult., he
saw the puddles of water collected in the
streets and the commons, swarming with a
species Of piscatory tribe, varying in size from
10 to 13 dwts, (which not without some hesita-
ton, he ranks with the genus Erocefus, al
though the pectoral fins arc not united with
the sides quite near enough to the spinal

further observes that by placing them in a
glass jar Of water between himself and the
light Of \ taper, he found the body to be
transparent and void Of veins or Arteries
Only two parts Of the body contained blood
vessels visible to the naked eye. The air
vessel covered the whole interior Of the sides
and back. Whether they ascended in the

We parted when the forest birds
Carroled on every tree:
We parted-when the Young spring leaves
Were green upon the bough,
When the pure fountain n, thy feet

We parted-when our hearts were voung.
Our brows were bright and clear;

The future not a fear.
Doubt had not comes darken'd cloud,

The earth was fair, our love was deep,
In this, our parting hour!
We met again!-when winter winds
Had blasted flower aud leaf;
When the murmur Of the swollen stream
Moan'd low a sound Of grief
When the bare branches Ger our heads
Swayed wild and mournfully,
Aud clouds and tempest swiftly sped,
Across darken'd Sky!
But oh! the hope the hope TINT nerved

Had that too fled. US from The sky

few weeks before the widow found herself

which he little suspected the cause. She be-

this was not to be dcspiscd; and she felt
something very much lke.a palpilnt on of the
heart, ms she questioned herself respecting
his intention.
Such was the train Of thought which was
one evening, us Is often the case, interrupted
by call from the very persons who had been

night, aud still David fingered. lie could
not tear himself away. "She is most fasci

The lady looked at him with some surprise.
"Nay," said she, "the matter rests with

question.
The lady did not swoon or turn pale. But
flash of qualification passed over her face,
and lighted her eyes for moment.
She frankly gave him her hand and looked

EARLY VEGETABLES.

Every one has observed, that when let tuce seed gets scattered upon the ground il, the fall. and lies in the earth during the winter, it will be up earlier and come io maturity sooner than when inc seed is sown in the spring, be it done early as it may The only objection to sowing seed in the fall is, the ground becomes so hard, that although the seed comes up quickly, tht. plant never grows so thriftily, nor becomes so large and grateful so the palate, as when the earth has been mellowed after settling iR the spring, The same is the case witI, Parsnips, Onions, Radishes and many oti,- CTS.

Man hath his boosted empire His domes of sovereignty- Ol many fair and palmy shore,
 By many mighty sea. He bends the river to his will, 4t The tribe that rnam the wood; Rules OCT the giant forest,
 And sways the stormy Hood. Yet many a scene hath nature His yoke that has not known, Where, throned in regal majesty, ~' She sits and reigns alone. . Her beauty ages have not paled,
 It knows no dull decay, Such as to dust aye crumbles
 Mans stately works away. The vast and snow-capped mountain
 There shield the sunny plain; And streams rejoicing roll their tides '} In tribute to the main. s4 Fresh foliage crowns the rifted rock,
 Too high for mortal gaze, And sports the foam-wh pillow
 Securely at it's base. With the surge-worn cavern
 The wild beast hath his lair; The eagle perches on the cliff,
 And fears no hunter there The wild bird trills his sweetest song, Unchecked his airy f1ight;, His glancing pinions sparkle
 Free in the golden light. Far off, stormy tunult
 Comes from the city's breast; And Danger walks with noiseless step, A cherished household guest. And Ruin sets his wasting seal ; On all-how gray and cold! 'Iis only Natures monuments
