A PARABLE FOR CHILDREN.
A. SLADE, Sec'Y.

In a solitary place, among the groves, chile
wandered whithersoever he would
). He believed himself alone, and knew not tha
one eye watched him from the thicket and ha
the eye of his parent was on him, continually
neither did he mark whose hand had marked 6
way for him thus far.
All that he saw was new to him, therefore he
feared nothing.
| He cast himself down in the long grass and as
he lay he sang until his voice of ioy rang through
the woods.
When he nestled among the flowers, a serpent
rose from the midst of thein and when the child
saw its FURNISHED coat glittered in the sun, like
the rainbow, he stretched forth his hand to take
it to his bosom.
Then the voice of his parent cried from the
thicket 'beware"
And the child sprang up, and gazed above and
around to whence the voice came; but when saw
not presently remembered it no more
He watched how butterfly burst from its
shell, and fitted faster than he could pursue, and
soon rose far above his reach.
When he gazed, and could trace its flight no
more, his father put forth his hand, and pointed
where the butterfly ascended- into the very
clouds.
But the child saw not the sign.
A fountain gushed forth amidst the shadows of
the trees, and its waters flowed into a deep and
quiet pool.
The child kneeled on the brink-and looked,
he saw his own bright face, and it smiled upon
him.
AS he stopped yet nearer to meet it, a voice
once more said ''beware.''
The child started back, but he saw that gust
ruffled the water, and he said to himself sit was
but the voice of the breeze.'
And when the broken sunbeams glanced on
the moving waters, he laughed, and dipped his
foot that the waters might again be ruffled, and
the GOODNESS was pleasant to him.
The voice was now louder; but he regarded it !
not, as the winds bore it away.
AT, length he saw something glittering in the
depths of thePool, and he plunged in to reach it.
AS he sunk, he cried for help
Ere the waters closed over him, his Fathers
hand was stretched out to save him.
And while he yet shivered with chillness and
fear, his parent said unto him:
"Mine eye was upon thee, and thou didst not
heed; neither hast thou beheld my sign nor
to my voice. If thou hadst thought on
me, had not been hidden.''
Then the child cast himself on his fathers
bosom and said:
''Be nigh unto me still, and mine ewes shall
wait on thee, and mine ears shall be open unto
by voice forevermore

DEMOCRA11C h1EE 41INO. -.
At meeting ofthe Democratic citizens the
Y Yanceyvillc, on Tuesday, the 4th inst, for the
purpose of nominating some gentleman to repre-
sent this District in the next Congress, OF the u
States,
On motion,
Gen Thomas W. GrGues was called to the
Chair and Capt. AbishG Sl0de appointed Secre
tary. The object of the meeting having been
briefly stated by the Chairman,
On motion,
A Committee consisting of Messrs N J. Pal
mer, Albert G. Anderson, and VIM. Thompson
Esqrs. were appointed to draft resolutions expires
sve of the sense of the meeting, who having re-
tired for a short time, returned and, Mr.. Palmer
from the Committee, reported the following
RESOLUTIONS:
ReSoLced, by the Democratic citizens of Caswell
county, here assembled. That having especial
confidence in the political principles and talents Of
DAVID S. REID, Esq, of Rockingham county,
we do hereby nominate him as suitable person
to represent this District in the next Congress OF
the United States.
ResOIoed, That our fellow citizens of the other
hereby respectfully requested to hold meetings
in their respective Counties and unite with us in
said nomination.
ResOt0ed, That the Chairman of this meeting
appoint Committee of three persons to confer
with Mr.. Reid, and solicit him to accept the said
nomination.
The Resolutions were read and mnanimowsly
adopted by the meeting. Messrs L. A. Gwyn,
Col. VIM. Lea, and Nathl J. Palmer, Esq, were
appointed a committee to inform Col. Reid (who
was attending Court, as an Attorney of his no.
mnation, and to request his acceptance ofthe same
who accordingly performed that duty, when, at
their request, Col. Reid returned with them to the
meeting and was introduced by Mr.. Palmer,
whereupon he returned thanks to the meeting for
the honor conferred upon him by the nomination,
and to the people of the County generally, for the
highly fattering support they had given him two
years ago, wheu candidate for Congress But
he respectfully declined accepting the nomination
at present. if, however it whould appear to be the
general wish of the Democratic party in the diff
ferent Counties OF the District, that he should be
heir candidate, he did not see how he could we'll
lecline-althongh he would much prefer that ano-
her, more able and experienced than himself
should be the candidate. He concluded by a few
appropriate remarks.
On motion,
Resolred, That the proceedings of the meeting
be signed by the Chairman and the Secretary, and
published in the Milton Chronicle and The N C..
Standard.

is no fancy picture. These examples quoted
literally from authentic examinations and reports
verified by magistrates, overSeers of the poor,
clergymen of parishes, and committees appointed
for the express purpose of investigating the state
of the poor of England.
Heavens how the world would ring, and the
Abolitionists triumph if one single. case similar
to that of MooREHoUsE and KERsHAw, or OF
little children and pregnant women being obliged
to draw loads of coal, strapped and chained till
their skin was worn off, could be found among
the slaves of the Southern States? What oppro-
brlum would be accumulated on our heads; what
streams of fiery philanthropic lava what bitter
denHnciations would be poured out on the "wolves
and tigers" as Mr.. Daniel O'Connell calls them !
One such example of black child treated like
the orphan MooREHoUsE; or of black man
like KERsHAw; and, most especially, a black
woman, like BETTY HARR1s-all purely white
people-would be seized upon, and echoed to the
nttermost ends of the earth, by British and A
mercan philanthropsts, to the eternal disgrace of
our country Yet these discriminating gentry 1--WE
mean Mr.. Adams and his party) are silent as the
grave about these crying miseries unparalleled
in the history of human oppression and human
sufferings
1t should be recollected that these sufferings
are not the infections of Providence They
are neither derived from the failure of the earth
to administer its tribute to industry, from pes
thence, or whirwinds, or earthquakes They
are the acork Of man. They originated in a
system of government arti6cially contrived to
make the few rich at the expense of want, misery,
and starvation to the millions many system
which perverts the natural order of things and
produces internal want and misery at home, while
plenty reigns everywhere else. There is at this
moment a sufficient superfuity of grain and pro-
visions in the United States to feed all these
wretched starvelings and at the same time enable
them to procure food at price far less than they
are now obliged to pay, were it not that such
high duties are laid on these necessaries of life
in England, that they amount to prohibition to
productions of the United States. The people
must starve, in order that the great landed pro-
prietors- s--every one of whom has perfect horror
of slavery-may riot in luxury, and the Govern
ment indulge its boundless prodigality. 'Wo I'M
to ye, Scribes and Pharisees, HYPocR1rEs! Not
all your boasted philanthropy can disguise from
the world that England is but whtened sepul-
chre, shining at a distance, enclosing body
in the midst of ofcorruption and worms

CHEERING!=A WE'LL

We receive from all parts Of the State the most
gratifying intelligence ofthe prospects of the Dem
ocratic party. The Legislation of last winter
partic ularly on the banking question-receves the
most cordial appreciation of our political friends
This is highly gratifying, and premonitory of a
glorious triumph in the fall campaign
But how is it with our opponents2 They are
crest-fallen, and almost without hope. Their coon
skins, fadangoes and cider guzzIings have all be-
come obsolete. They have not one single politi-
cal hobby left to ride upon The expectation of
divisions among the Democratic members of the
late Legislature on the banking question, which
the Wings nursed so affectionately for time now
stings them with disappointment. That was near
the only consolation for the wofll defeat of last
Oct Cheap consolation They vanly fattered
themselves that the Democracy would commit
some egregious blunder, which would throw
sufficient amount of political capital into the hands
of the Wings to carry them through the next cam
Pagn with flying colors. But in this they have
been most signally disappointed. The Democrat.
ic ship sailed gallantly on, Drawing the tempest,
and arrived safely at her destination with the ban
ner of Democracy bearing the inscription, "Indi-
vldual Responsibility of Bankers-safe Banks or
none" waving at her masthead The people are
satisfied, and respond Amen
The indomitable Democracy of New Hamp-
shire have achieved a glorious victory over the
L
ate ally, Conservatism. The sterling Democrats
of the Granite State deserve the thanks of the
Union for their fearless and gallant defence of De
mocratic principles. Their recreant and heartless
enemies who split off from the Democratic party,
and plotted its destruction, have earned for them
selves infinite disgrace.
The great Democratic party is marching on
ward with invincible determination, and nothing
can arrest or check its progress until the princi
piles of equal and exact justice pervade and control
the legislation ofevery State in the Union Weak
brethren may tremble, and corrupt ambition may
cling to ancient abuses, or plot disunon to promote
selfish plans These are but ripples on the stream;
for the great body of the Democracy will continue
to move onward. This great truth has been we'll
in this and other States, and with in
structive force in the late contest in New Hamp-
shire, the happy results of which will give Joy and
to the advocates oftrue Democracy

LESSON FOR YOUNG MEN-A correspond
ent informs US that he was acquainted some thirty
or [forty] years ago with three young men, al
then apprentices 10 mechanical trades, who board
ed together at clearinghouse in Murray street
Each of them was poor having no means but the
scanty allowance of apprentices which barely
suficed to pay their board and provide them with
working apparel; so that on Sunday, when most
young men sported holyday suits in Broadway,
these lads remained at home reading, having not
one Sunday suit between them But all of them
were honest industrious, and prudent and, as
time wears on, one ofthem has since been Mayor
of Georgetown, D. c., the second Mayor of New
ark, N. j., and the third is Robert Smith, who,
we trust, will very soon be Mayor of New York /
Such' young men, are the rewards of patient in
dustry, and solid though humble worth.
