NORTHERN DEMOCRACY.

A letter from an old friend at Boston
-one of the ablest of the democratic
young men of that city-glances thus
fairly at the late triumph of principle
in New Hampshire. We invite par
tlcular attention to tina: portion of the
extract which refers to the state of feel
ing prevalent there with reference to
the subject ofAbohtion.
"New Hampshire, you see, has forced
the last entertainment of Federalism.
The Wings thought to make something
OF Abolition. They have failed utterly.
This disastrous field is their last-at
least for the present. They found with
the courage of despair. The Southern
people, manyofthem, have an erroneous
opinion of the state of public feeling
here at the North, ON that subject.
They seem to suppose that because we
DO not all rise up and put down abolition
by violence-because our blood does
not boil at the mention of negro eman-
cipation--wethcrefor are countenanc-
| ing the abolilionists and fast BECOMING
converts to their creed. The truth is !.
the democracy of the North are with
the South and will stand by their rights
to the last. True, we do not insult or
abuse the abolltlonists. We see them 90
to and from their meetings-they are
u9anmolested--they are protected, even.
We perhaps drop in occasionally ia
hear them discourse Of the ssraw head
and bloody bones''--in their jealous
manner. But we go our way again. as
resoluteIy determined to protect the
lights of the South, at all hazards. a,
we ever were-yes, more so: for a.
we hear the Southern people abused
and belied, our sympathy and regard
turn more strongly to them Coult
any Southern man have travelled
through New Hampshire, on the eve O.
the recent election there, he would
have been satisfied that the Democrac,
OF that State are alive, every man 81
them, to the rights Of the South. Talk
to New Hampshire Democrat Of Alb.
clifton and he replies-"The Consti.
tuition must prove shield to all rights
existing at its adoption; and when any
Southern Stale is ready for emancipa-
ton, the North will not object" Abo.
lltion, among Northern Democrats
l"hath this extent--no more.o FEEDER.
allsm now may make common cause
with Abolition there. But the conse.
quence WILDE, complete determination.
Abolition in New Hampshire will never
rise to importance enough in politics to
give birth to one ray ofhope to the most
sanguine demagogue of all who have
mounted T1! that hobby."-[Nashyille

In looking over some old books we found
volume of the Freemason's Magazine,
for the year 1911, printed by Il. s. Man
ming, Philadelphia; in which we find the
following letter. Thinking that il might
be read, even in these days, with pleasure
and profit, we lay it before our readers.
MRS. BUSTLE.
Mr.. What's your name,
You're printer ! suppose: and ]
wish from my heart there were fewer of
your profession in the country: don't

since have taken up my pen, (for I'm
not much used TO writing) I'll tell you a
bit Of my mind, so l will; I'm determined
on that. | much suspect that you and my
husband have been laying your heads TO-
gether to impose upon us women; and
we're imposed upon enough already, the
Lord above knows. Here's l, labor from
morning to night like slave, so do, to
try to bring up my children decently; for

father was in good way of business; and
my mother was quite lady, so she was;
but she was determined to bring up her
children 10 work, for all that: says she to

knit and to sew and 10 spin, and to do
house work. If you marry fortune, it
will do you no harm; but If you don't,n
says she, "you'll be able to provide for
yourself And the gracious goodness
knows, it was well that l took her advice,
or should have been in a sweet pickle
before this time. To be sure, it's all nv
own fault; l might have married another
guess kind Of man than John Buste: and
well he pays me for my condesending for
to have him, against the will Of all nv re-
lations! A woman Of my family and dis.
traction to marry a nobody like John

have had my pick and choice of husbands,
so might: there was Bob Gudgeon, he
would have snapped at me in a moment !;
and there was old Stocks, the rich mer-
chant, would have given all his heart and
more too to have got me; and there was
Tom Facias. the pretty young lawyer, as
nice man as you would see in long
summers day. know he would have had
me; and there was Charles Dasher came
fifty miles to see me in his gig with SER
want behind him, SO he did; o! l must
have been INFATUATED to take John Bustle |!
Well: it's no use to cry after spilled milk
what is to be must be, as the saying is;
and more's the pity. Well, as | was say

81 ANLAS
COMMEMORATIVE OF THE HEROIC BRAVERY OF
sRACE DARLING AND HER FATHER
On the occasion Of The loss ofthe Erfarshire
Steamship.
In slumbers deep the father lay,
The storm it loudly blew,
His child in haste and wild dismay,
To his lone cabin flew.
"Why wakes my child at this wild hour,
The innocent should sleep
Most TRANQUILITY, when wind and shower
Around their dwelling sweepw
"Oh, fatherm said the startled maid,
~ slept-but, such cry
Ofhorror woke me, I'm afraid
There's death or danger nigh!
And bark. again--Oh let us haste,
sTis some bewilder'd crew
Upon the reckless waters waste!
Oh, hy!-in pity do!
Your arm is strong to stem The wave,
And heaven will give me power
To help and snatch them from the grave!
Oh! speed-'tis mercy's hour."
The father kissed his fearless child,
Then, with an inward pray'r,
They launch'd amid the pillows wild,
To succor sad despair!
A moment more and all wa, lost
But oh! what rapture when
Their little skiff, though tempest tost,
To shore came safe again.
Oh! who could count the blessing she'd,
Upon the gen'rous girl,
BY lips that but for her were dead,
Amid the stormy whlrl
But oh! what must her heart have felt,
Such danger having braved,
When by her sire to heaven she knelt,
In safety with the saved.

THE FuTURE.-lt is perhaps for
others, rather than ourselves, that the
fond heart requires hereafter.-The
tranquil rest-the shadow and the ST.
lence-the mere pause of the wheel OF
life, have no terror for the wise, who
know the due value of the world
safer the pillows ola sen,
Sweet is at last the haven Of reposen
But not when that stiffness is TO
divide us from others, when those we
have loved with all the passion-the
devotion-the watchful sanctity of the
weak human heart, are to exist to us no
more when after long years of de-
sertion, and widowhood on earth, there
is to be no hope or reunion in that in
visible world beyond the stars; when
the torch, not oflife only, but oflove, is
to be quenched in the fountain; and the
grave that we would fain hope is the
great restorer ofbroken ties-is but the
dumb seal ofhopelcss, utter, memorable
separation; and it is this thought-this
sentiment which makes religion out of
love and teacheth belief to the mourn
ing heart, that in gladness of united
is felt the necessity of a
heaven! To how many is the death Of
the beloved, the birth of Faith -
