THE pRlGHT SIDE OF HUMANrgYy.'

tt fiih AtzY. O. eAU&F. ~ EsBa
There are good men every, where.
There are men who are good forsgood-
ness sake. In obscurity, in retirement,
scarcely known to the world, and never
asking 10 be known, there, are good
nlen--in adversely, in poverty, amid
temptations, amid all the seventies Of
earthly trials, there are goodmen, whose
lives shed brightness upon the dark
clouds that surround them. Be il true,
if we must admit the sad truth that ma
ny are estranged from infinite goodness
that many are col1ly SELFISH and many
sensual-cold and dead to every thing
that is not wrapped up in their own
earthly interest, or more darklv wrapped
up in the veil Of feshly appetites. Be
il SO but thank God, that it is not at
allsthat we are obliged to believe. No,
there are true hearts, amid the throng
sof the false and the faithless. There are
warm and generous hearts, which the
cold atmosphere Of surrounding selfish
ness never chills, and eyes unused to
weep for personal sorrow, which often
overflow with sympathy for the sorrow
of others. Yes, there are good men,
and true men, | thank them; bless
them for what they are.-God. from on
high, doth bless them; and he giveth
his angels charge 10 keep them; andn no
where in the holy record are these
words more precious or strong than those
in which it is written, that God loveth
these righteous ones. ,,.',',i5 II
Such men there are. Let not their
precious virtues be distrusted. AS sure
ly and as evidently as some men have
obeyed the calls Of ambition and plea
sure, SO surely and so evidently have
other men obeyed the voice of con-
science, and chosen rather to suffer
with the people of God, than to enjoy
the pleasures Of sin for season. WHY |
every meek man suffers in a conflict
keener far than the contest for honor and
applause. And there are such men,
who, amid injury and insult and miscon-
struction, and the pointed finger, and the
scornful lip of pride, stand firm in their
integrity and allegiance to loftier pfin-
ciple and still their throbbing hearts in
prayer, and hush them to the gentle
emotions of Kindness and pity. Such
witnesses there are, even in this bad
world, signs that redeeming work is
going forward amid its mournful dere-
Lotions proofs that it is not a world
forsaken of heaven; pledges that it will
not be forsaken; tokens that cheer and
touch every good and thoughtful mind,
beyond all other power OF earth topen- \
citrate and enkindeit. ss'a Il

Mr.. Editor,-Since addressed you last week on
the subject Of the gross mpesltlons practiscd upon
the public at large by the New Jersey Legislature
and the Camden and Amboy Rail Road Company,
il has come to my knowledge that this imposition
praetiscd upon us by these concerns, IN raising the
price of fare between this city and Philadelphia, one
dollar on erery passenger, is in the shape OF COM
mon and preconcerted robbery! OF this dollar, le-
We'd on or extracted FROM every passenger between
this city and Philadslpha one hoy or my cents
thereof goes the treasury Of the patriotic state of
New Jersey-and the other half or .fffy cents into
The pockets Of the propnetors of the line Let It how
ever be remembered by the citizens of Philadelphia
and New York, that the citizens Of Neio Jersey are
to be erempf from this additional charge, and only
pay M the rate formerly established, viz three dol
lars per passenger! This, 10 shut sp their mouths
and guard against clamor! Must this city and PHI
ladephia of necessity submit and suffer themselves
to be thus unceremoniously plundered by sister
state which draws It's chief existence from the faci-
ties their markets afford! Are we to bear these inn
positions meekly and patiently out of pure charity
and christian consideration Il there no way to
punish these common pfcrcrs, by the enactment of
such laws as will make the citizens Of Neu Jersey
feel The injustice which has been perperaed BY It's
ar mskers and lar breakers upon this city and PHI
ladelphia9 For the sake Of strict and impartial JUS
ce this subject ought not to be suffered TO sumber.
