can look into the eating room, il you wish"
In a few moments the dinner bell rang,
and footsteps were heard from the various
rooms around, answering to the call. "This
is the girls eating-room," said the conduc-
tor, leading the way to a spacious apartment
in which long tables were spread with plain
wholesome food, and the children neatly
dressed in uniform were arranged on each
side.
The smile passed from the maiden's lip,
and the color faded from her cheek, as
child of seven or eight years sprang from
the table with q slight cry of surprise, and
grasping her frock, exclaimed, 80, why did
you not come why did you not come o
watched for you, and watched for you,
and you did not come"
"Why did you not come to me again, my
poor Elenr' said Adele, kneeling and
folding her arms around the child, who now
lay sobbng on her bosom.
81 watched for you so long" sobbed she,
"till it was dark, and in the morning moth
er looked 50 pale it frightened me. Then
some crosspeope came and took her away,
and naughty woman carried me to her
house, and told me to steal things. did
not like Il do so, for mother used TO tell me
that it was wicked but it was so far that
could mo- find you, and she was cross and
beat me So used to ask for cold victuals,
and when they went to get any, | used to
take things and run away. o, | cannot tell
you al but they brought me here, and
was 50 glad, for she did not come TOO. They
are good people here" added she in low
whisper. "for they take care of me, and dc
not look SO hard at me but they do not
love me as my mother did"
There is a sorrow that "worketh repent
ance," and the deep remorse which Adele
bore from the House Of Refuge had power
to change the Trainer Of generous plans into
the doer Of actual good. Yet long, verj
long afterwards, were her slumbers haunte,
by that anguish cry, 20, why did you no
come !-why did you not comet WATCHED
for you, and you did not comet"

grown up in our busting town, is that of Lard

adjustment near the Railroad on Water ST.

The perfection TO which Il has attained, Is ma

use, and is in a good measure supersedng the
use Of whale oil The pigs seem destined to
drive the whales out Of the market. In con-

SUPPRESSED DOCUMENTS,
accompanying The Presidents Message transmitting The
Treaty. Of .4aneration.

To the Senate Of The United States
10 my message communicating The Treaty with
Texas, 1 expressed the opinion that If Texas was
not now annexed, il was probable that the opPortu-
nifty Of anneiing il to the United States would be
lost forever Since then, the subject has been much
agitsed and If an opinion may be formed OF The
chief ground Of the opposition to the treaty, il IS not
that Texas ought not at time other TO be an
nexed, but that the present is not the proper time
IL becomes, therefore, important, 40 this view OF The
subject, and is alike due 10 the Senate and the
try, that should furnish any papers in my possession
which may be calculated TO impress the Senate with
the correctness Of The opinion expressed by me-
With this view, I herewith transmit report from
the Secretary Of State, accompanied by various CON-
muncations on the subject. These communications
are from private sources and it is TO be remarked
that resort must, in all such cases, be had chiefly
to private of information, since II is not 10
lie expected that any Government, more especially if
situated as Texas is, would be inclined TO develope
10 the world its Interior line of policy.
Among the extracts is one from letter from Gen
eral Houston to General Andrew Jackson, to which
particularly invite your attention. and another
from General Jackson to a gentleman of high re-
spectabllity, now Of this place. Considering that
General Jackson was placed in situation to hold
the freest and fullest interview with MIR. Miller, the
private and confidential secretary of President Hous-
ton, (who, President Houston informed Gen. Jack
son. "knows all his actions and understands all his
motives, !" and who was authorized to communicate
to Gen. Jackson the views of the policy entertained
by the President Of Texas well applicable to
the present the future) that the declaration made
by General Jackson in his letter. "thet the present
golden moment to obtain Texas must not be lost, or
Texas might, from necessity, be thrown into the
arms Of England, and be forever lost to the United
States" made with full knowledge of all the cir
cumstances, and ought to be received as conclusive
of what will be the Of Texas should the pre-
sent treaty fail.
From this high source, sustained, il il requires to
be sustained, by the accompanying communications,
entertain not the least doubt that il annexation
should now fall it will, in all human probability,
fail forever. Indeed, have strong to believe
that instructions have areai y been given by the
Texan Government TO propose TO the Government OF
Great Britain forthwith the failure, to enter into
a treaty of commerce and alliance offensive and de-
fensive.
