CRUELTY KILLED BY KIND
NESS.

A girl in Vermont married Il poor,
but worthy man against her fathers
wish. He drove them from his house,
and closed his door and his heart
against them. They came down near
Boston, went TO work, and prospered.
After many years the father had occa-
sion TO crme to Boston. He concIud ID
to go and see his daughter, expecting a
cold reception. His daughter and hus-
band received him most kindly and low
ingly. After staying with them a
while he went back to Vermont.
One of his neighbors hearing where
he had been. asked him how his daugh-
ter and husband had treated him.
81 never was treated so before IN my
life," said the weeping and broken
hearted father. "They have broken
my heart; they have killed me; don't
feel as though could live under it,"
"What did they do to you" asked
the neighbor; "did they abuse you?"
"They loved Inc to death, and killed
me with their Kindness" said he. 81
can never forgive myself for treating
so cruelty my own darling daughter,
who loved me so af1ectirnately. ] feel
asifl should die to think how grieved
the precious child when spurned her
from my door. Heaven bless them,
and forgive me my cruelty and injustice
to them"
Who does not see in this an infalli.
Bile cure for difficulties between man
and man? There is not child nor a
man on earth who would not feel and
say, that daughter, though so deeply
wrongei and outraged by her angry fa-
ther, did not do right in treating him
as she did. That father was her enemy
but she was not his. He hated her
while she loved him.

they are, without dot,ing an !, or cros.I
sing /. She will disregard the sug-
gestions OF false friends at home and
abroad, and silence, by more unani-
nous vote than has ever yet been Civ
en- on debated political question, all
doubts of her attachment to the Amer.
ican Union. Thanks to the people Of
Texas--thanks to the people of the
United States s-for this glorious result!
A result worthy Of both countries, and
atforGing another brilliant proof of the
wisdom of that sovereignty which IN
our system has been carefully withheld
from both our federal and State gov-
ernments.
We have seen the people oil the Uni
ted States take the annexation question
out of party shackles, and demand its
cunsummation in a voice which neith- +.
er the Congress nor the President of
the United States could disregard. We
see, TOO, the people of Texas, by a
movement equally decisive, telling their
President and Congress, to give the
finishing stroke to the great work, and
no longer to inquire in what light it
may be received by Mexico, or Eng
land, or France. What can be more
sublime than such spectacle! When
was there ever before, the union of two
sovereignties, accomplished by pro-
cess so honorable to human nature?-
And yet there are those amongst US
who would have changed the character
of this spectacle, and denied to our glo-
rious Union this evidence of its capaci-
~ to extend its blessings. But thanks
again to the sovereign people of both
the United States and Texas; neither
the lanaticism of the abolilionists, nor
the contracted views Of the old federal
party, nor the willy diplomacy of Great
Britain and France, have availed any
thing in defeating a result so essential
to the fame, honor, and security Of our
countrv,
We are gratified to find from the
Galveston papers that ex-President
Houston is about TO visit his native land,
and spend the ensuing summer with his
relations in the United States. 1t is
said that he will proceed, soon after his
arrival in this city, up The river to Nash
vile, to visit his old friend, the tenant
of the Hermitage. Gen. Houston will
find a cordial reception in the United
States. His conduct at San Jacinto,
and his successful administration of the
government of Texas, but above all ,his
determination to restore Texas
to the bosom of the republican family,
entitlc him to rank among the bene-
factors Of the age.

CONVENTION OF FRIENDS OF
AGRICULTURE IN OHIO.
To be held al Columbus. June ash ana
26h, lS45.
The Convention is ior the purpose of
considering what measures can bes, be
adopted for promoting ths improve
ment of agriculture, and advancing the
great farming interests of this State
and especially to discuss the merits of
the several bills having reverence to
this subject that were brought before
the late General A ssembIy, with view
to The recommendation of such as may
be deemed most necessary for adoption
by the next General Assembly. And
in order that the delegates may have
their minds somewhat prepared to dis
cuss the questions that will come be-
fore the convention, they are reminded
that the projects include the establish
ing of a permanent State Board of Ag.
ricul,ure.-encouragement Of Country
Socielies--aT Agricultural Survey of
the State--obtaining Agricultural Sta
tistics--protection of Sheep from des-
truction by dogs--together with seve-
raj minor questions, all Of which have
been noticed or discussed in the col
umns Of the "Oho Cullivator."
AS the questions to be decided by
this convention are fgreat and lasting
Importance TO all parts of the State, it
is very desirable that all the counties
be represented, and that the delegates,
as far as possible, be well informed as
10 the condition of agriculture, and the
wants Of the farmers in their several
districts. In those counties where ag-
rIcultural societies exist it is expected
that delegates " i'll be appointed by the
societies, Several OF them have already
made their appointments.) In other
counties meeting of farmers and
flands Of agri' ultme should be held
forthwith, and a delegation appointed.
If this is not done, the farmers of sin
gle township or neig ghborhood can meet
together and appoint some one or more
Of their number, who will agree to at
tend and represent their township or
county.
Now is the time for action, friends
of neutrality-suspicious.! Your own
Ohio demands your efforts! not in the
work Of party strife, this has too long
been the bane of your noble State---but
to consult together for the general good;
to greet each other as friends and breth.
rem, and strengthen each others hands
in the great work of advancing the no.
blest and lest pursuit on earth. Such
meeting cannot tail to be highly in
teresting to those who attend, and will
no eonbt be productive Of the most be-
nefical results.

does the rich counties no wrong; the old law did
the poor ones gross injustice Fellew.ciizens, it
is time for these eastern counties to have opinions
OF their own, for one thing Is true, and that is that
we have been governed by the canal interest like
colonists, without any reference to our own inte-
rests, but with reference to the interests of other
cheated and deceived, for as tyrants of old pre-
vailed by force SO modern spectators prevail by
fraud. OSCAR.

ARRIVAL OF THE BRITANNIA.


The steamship Britannia arrived al
Boston on Monday from Liverpool,
bringing intelligence fifteen days later
than that previously received.
1t was reported on the Paris Bourse,
on Saturday, week, that England had
applied to France to join her in pro-
test against the annexation ofTexas to
the Ame rican Union.
The monster steamer Great Britain

The Repeal Association met again
on the 98th ult., and OConnell again
praised Pcel's concessions --he looked
upon the measures of the Premier in
regard to Banking in Ireland, as excel
lent. The rent for the week was E4I7.
Puckler Muskau has sold his estate,
and with it his title ofnoblesse, to Count
Edmund Hasieldt WeisweIler, for
1908, so dollars.
The Anti-Corn Law Bazaar will GER
tainly surpass in magnifcence and vast
ness any similar display that ever took
place in the country;i it will open on the

An elephant, a giraffe, a lion, and
two young cubs, have been shipped on
board the George Washington,for New

Maynooth question (naking large be-

sed hope that Peel would double it

In letter accepting an invitation to
a banquet and triumphial entry at Cork,
Mr.. O'Connel says:
"The Minister of the Crown, finding
it to be totally useless to crush the re-
peal spirit by force, or TO extInguish it
by legal form, have adopted another
and less blameable course. They
show Il determinationto conciliate pub
lie opinion by minor acts of Justice
and benevolence. The Maynooth en-
do ~ment bill is a measure Of this des-
cnption."

man in Virginia, short time since re-
turned a pair of shoes which had been

with request that another pair should

too small for the husband, who don't
wish them to be total loss, should his
wife die first which was more than
likely. as she was already in bad health.

THE NATION AL RoAD.-The whig legislature
Of last winter, in order to carry out the promise
of the whig Central Committee of this county,
that if Barley was elected we would have "little
or no taxes,-has raised by law the tolls on the
National Road, some rs or 80 per cent on the tolls
there coected-and the heaviest increase is on
wagons and horses attached thereto-the effect OF
which is to throw the disprorortoned burthen OF
the tolls on the farming community, and those
who wagon it, carrying of the surplus produce
Of the country.
The increase of toll will reduce the revenue of
the road; those adjacent will evade travelling il as
much as they can, and travellers will seek other
routes
In the first law passed TO raise the tolls, we per-
ceve that the tolls on stage coaches were iucreas-
ed as well as on other vehicles; but toward the
heels Of the session this whig legislature slipped
through, without printing, of course, supple
mental law, The object of which was to relieve
stage coaches from their portion of the burthen,
and by which supplemental law, the legislature
authorize their whig Board Of Public Works to
compound with stage coach owners, and let them
run at any rates the Board may agree upon. This
supplemental law was 10 doubt passed in consid-
