PRAISE oFLIrTLE WOMEN.


FRoM rms SPANISH OF JUAN RNIz De HIrA.
In a little precious stone what spIendor meets
the eyes!
In a little lump Ofsugar how much Of sweet
ness lies.
in a little woman love grow and multiplies !:
You recollect the proyerb says-A WORD UNTO
THE WISE.
A pepper corn is very small. but seasons every
dinner
More than all other condiments. although 'tis
sprinkled thinner;
Just SO a little woman is, ii love will let you win
her
There's not a JOY in all the world you will not
6nd within her.
And as within the little rose you find the rich
est dyes,
And in a lille grain of gold much price and val
ue lies,
AS from a little baIsam much odor doth arise,
So in a little woman. there's a taste of paradise.
The skylark and the nightingale, though email
and light OF wing,
Yet MARBLE sweeter in the grove than all the
birds that sing;
And so a little woman. though a very little thing
Is sweeter far than sugar and flowers that bloom
III spring.

FROM THE n. Y. COMMERCIAL ADVERTISER.
A TRUE HEROINE.

The Irish as a nation are often accused o.
in-sinceriiy, and ii must be confessed that,
Judged by the standard OF our duller temper
ament, their very vehement professions oil
attachment do often appear uncalled-for and
exaggerated. Yet where in truth do we ey-
er meet with more touching instancesof real,
.unselish devotion, than are sometimes exhibit
ted by tie poor uneducated sons and daugh-
tiers of Hibernia?-
A case in point occurred, notmany weeks
ago, in this city. A young physician, great
~ beloved by his friends and associates, was
taken suddenly i'll; after remaining a day or
Two at his own office, deprived, unavoidably,
of all those soothing attentions which none
but woman can offer in the hour of sickness,
the young man grew rapidly worse, and the
kind lady at whose table he took his mea Is
generously insisted upon his instant removal
10 her own house, that he might be within
reach OF that careful tendance which the a.
farming peculiarities of his case demanded.
The disease was scarlet fever of the most
malignant and dangerous type.
On the day of his arrival, among other in
quirers there came a tidy, respectfully dress
Gu SnI-oH us Shl-Milni udHl, very Liduy
and most anxious questions as 10 the patients
condition; when they had all been answered
when every thing had been told her of
good or bad, connected with his disorder
she fingered still, still hesitated, as though
there was yet a something in her heart that
could not find its proper utterance.
care you acquainted with DR.. my
good girl?" asked the lady. "Do | know
him, is itg" Oh yes-she knew him we'll
quite well-knew him long before he came
from the old country. He had once attended
her through a long and dangerous illness;
and-now burst forth the pent-up secret-he
had surely saved her life by his skill and care,
and she had come TO ask the kind lady
could she-might she, only be permitted just
to stay in the house until his recovery, and in
her turn watch over, and wait upon him?
She had beenliving out, it appeared, in the
neighborhood, as nursery maid; but her en-
p!oyers, in their dread of scarlet fever, obs
jected to her daily visits OF inquiry at the
Doctors Office, so the affectionate creature
had unhesitalingly given up a good place
and fastened away, delighted at the thought
of being useful to her benelactor, and show
ing her gratitude for his former kindness by
rendering her servicesto him as nurse.

ILLUSTRIOUS MECHANICS.

Adam the father of the human race
was gardener. He had, however, ;
strange propensity for tasting unwhole
some fruit, which produced very inju
rious effects, both upon himself and hi:
offspring.
Noah was shipwright and husb-
andman; he navlgated the whole earth
in his ark, and got "seas over" in bis
vineyard.
Solomon was an architect, poet
and philosopher, his conduct, howev.
er, was not always by line and rule, he
trod the circle of ssipation, was errat.
ic in his imnginations, and violated his
own maxims. His conscience and
strength of mind, however, reclaimed
him,and his repentance is the most beau
tiful of the works which he has leftfor
the contemplation of his species.
The Apostle Paul was tent maker,
and labored with his hands at his voca-
tion, while he endeavored to infuse into
the minds of his fellow men, the impor-
tant truths of revelation. While he
screened them with earthly tabernacles
from the weather, he held above their
souls the egis of divine protection.
Matthew was poor fisherman, he
relinquished his humble calling for that
of a missionary, and toiled assiduously
to draw men from the fiery pillows of
perdition.
Quintus Cincinnatus was a plough
man, and was invoked to the govern
nent and dictatorship of Rome. His
labors in the political field were as sue
cessful as those upon the soil.
Arsaces was private mechanic, ,and
was called to found the Parthian En-
oire. He built up powerful nation,
md erected for himself q mausoleum
of fame, which is indestructible.
Tamerlane the Conqueror of A sia, was
llso mechanic; he rough he,oed Baia-
.et, and carved his way 10 fortune and
,lory.

Pecuniary embarrassment is tn iden-
tical species of adversely that is the

wealth, even to idolatry, if the noble

was not at all times obtruded to keep
US from emerging into the oblivion Of
worth, affection, and merit.

LITER A r Y.
TALE OF THE EARLY CHRISTIANS.

In the reign of Marcus Aurelius An
tonius, there lived in Rome a good ole
Senator, who had two daughters. We
ronIca and Berenlce were noted less fol
their beauty and gentleness, than fol
the extraordinary resemblance they
bore 10 each other and for their mutua
affection. These girls were twins; thoil
mother had died during their infancy,
and it was found, after her death, that
mothers eye only had been able. to
distinguish the children. Had their fa
ther,Flavius Torquatus, bestowed much
OF his time and attention on them, he
might have acquired the same power Of
discrimination, but the noble patrician's s
hours were divided between the senate
house and the court; and when he came
home at night, wearied, he was we'll
enough pleased to play with his two
sweet little girls, without further trou-
bling himself concerning them. And
yet he was a kind father; he entreated
his widowed sister to take up her abode
with him, that she might take care of
the children; he allotted for their use
magnificent suit of rooms; he purchased
for them numerous train OF slaves
Veronica and Berenice had scarcely a
wish ungratifed.
AS they increased in years the re-
markable similarity of their persons re-
mained undiminished, but their charac.
ters became essentially different. Ber-
enice was pensive, gentle, it might be
said somewhat melancholy, studious,
and fond Of retirement; Veronica was
volatile, giddy, of quick and warm af-
.fections; yet did these points of differ
ence not lessen their fond affection.
They had completed their sixteenth
year, when, among other presents
brought by their father on his return
from visit to the east, was a young
female slave of extraordinary intelli-
gence and merit. She soon became
the favorite Of Berenice; and the noble
young Roman would frequently for
hours on her couch, while the slave be-
side her, occupied at her embroidery,
would tell her tales of her own family
and native land. She wept when she |
spoke Of her peaceful home and aged
parents, and Berenice felt as though she
loved the girl the more for her fond re-
gret. She asked her for what cause |
her liberty had been forfeited, for she
knew that Alice had not been born |
slave but on this point'she could not
obtain satifaction. Berenice would not
pursue the painful subject; but her sis
ter's curiosity was not SO easily sup
pressed. She questioned her father,
and the reply of Flavius made both Of
MS daughters start back with horror.
"Itwas for crime, "he said "forcrime
,f a blacker nature than you can con-
,eive; for crime that merited death;
,ut pitied her youth. Nay" he con-
inued, sbe not alarmed; she cannot,
will not injuro you; she is gentle and /
