NEVER PRoCRAsTINATE

The following little story is not new, but tits
so touchingly narrated, and conveys so excellent
a moral, that we cannot refrain from publishing
it. We remember the tears came into our ewes
the first time we read it:
you'll please not forget to ask the place for
me, sir" said pale, blue-eyed boy as he brush
ed the coat OF the man of leisure at his lodgings
Certainly not, said MIR. Inklin, 81 shall be
going that way IN day or two"
''Did you ask for the place for me veste rday >,
saiu the pale boy on the following day. with the
quivering lip, as he performed the same o(Tice
"No, was the answer IL was busy: but
will to-day 'u'
"Heayen hepmy poor mother,' mnrmured
the boy, and gazed listessly on the cent Inklin
laid in his hand
The boy went home. He ran ia the hungry
children with the loaf of bread he had earned by
1rushlng the genlemen's coats at the hotel
lhey shouted with joy, and his mother held out
her emaciaed hand for portion. while a sictlv
smile fitted across her face.
Mother dear" said the boy "Mr InkliD
thinks he can get me the place, and shall have
three meals day-only think, mother. fbr.e
meals and it won't take me three minutes IL
run home and share them with you.''
Inc morning came, and the pale bows voice
remnled with eagerness as he asked Mr. Inklin
ii he had applied for the place.
'Not YETI said the man of leisure s.b,,. tho.o
is time enough
The cent that morning was wet with tears
Another morning arrived.
"ltls very thoughtless in the boy to be so late :"
said Mr. lnklin. "Not a soul here to brush NV
coat
The child came at length, his face swollen
with weeping.
81 am sorry to disappoint you,' said the man
OF leisure, " but the place III Mr.. C--'s store
was taken up yesterday
Inc boy stopped brushing, and burst afresh
into tears 81 don't care now, p said he sobbinn.
" we may as well starve. Mother is dead ), %
The man Of leisure was shocked, and he gave
the boy dollar. e"'o

ARMY MOVEMENTS

The steamship McKim has arrived at New
Orleans, having left Brazos st Jago, on the oath
ult. She brings intelligence that Geu. Wool took
peaceable possession of Monclova on the Both
Oct the Mexican governor and Influential citi-
zens forming his escort in. Gen. TOOL was occu-
plying the best house in the city and every atten-
ton was paid to him and his troops
Col. Doniphan had taken the city OF Chihua-
hua without resistance. Col Riley has been or
dered to march on Victoria in Tamaulipas.
On the arrival of the dispatches from our Gov
eminent ordering the discontinuance of the ar
mistic, General Taylor despatched Major Ora
ham TO Saltillo to give notice of the fact Not
soldier was to be seen at Saluo, and on the 10Th
Gen. Worth received orders to march for that
place.
Letters received at Camargo state that Santa
Anna had collected at San Luis de Potosi, thirty
thousand men-but little credence was given to
the statement
Gen. Worth's Division occupied the city of
Monterey, and Twiggs's and Buffers were en-
camPed outside.
1t was rumored at Camargo that another revo-
luton had broken out in Mexico-by which San
ia Anna had been declared Dictator and that
the opponents OF Santa Anna, headed by Gen.
Valencia, had Misunderstanding him from San
Luis de Potosi-so that the Dictator in conse-
quence had fallen back to Mexico. Rumor
doubted
Gen. Patterson had left Camargo with two
thousand men, for Tampico Col Gates had
been appointed Governor of Tampico.
Gen. Butler was still suffering from his wounds.
Col. Baker had recovered. The loss OF troops by
sickness on the Rio Grande, since the opening OF
the campaign, was estimated at fifteen hundred.
Commodore Stockton has formed regular

THE CAMBRIDGE TELESCOPE. We under
stand that the object glass of the great Cambridge
Equatorial, was received here yesterday, appa-
rently in fine order. Its clear aperture is said to
be over fifteen inches, and its focal length about
twenty-five feet. This telescope has been pro-
nounced by its maker, Mertz, of Munich, g far
better " than that at the Observatory of Pulkova,
St. Petersburg, hitherto considered by far the
finest refractor in the world, and which was also
constructed at Munich.
Some idea of the difficulty OF obtaining pieces
OF flint glass, of this enormous size, may be de-
rived from the fact, that whilst the whole cost OF
this splendid instrument, with all its massy
moulding, machinery, and appendages, will not
exceed twenty thousand dollars that of the OBJ
ject glass alone is about two-lhirds of the whole

THE STRENGTH OF TRUE PIErY. The New
York correspondent of the Puritan, speaking of
the recent painful event which has deprived the
churches Of that region of one of its ablest and
most useful ministers and the American Board of
Missions of an indeiatigable and judicious secre-
tary, says:
The sad tdngs were borne to the widowed
family by DR. Adams as remarked in his sermon
on Sabbath morning. The wife in suspense, an
swered to the ringing of the bell-her cold hand
told him of her apprehensons OF the nature of
his errand and whilst overwhelmed with the
burden of his painful duty, he was yetmore over
whelmed with the remark with which she anti
cipated him The Lord has Away prepared me
to receive the tidings he sends ;''-and continued
the preacher, know not at which most to won
der, the mystery of that Providence which has
taken away the husband and father in the midst
OF his usefulness or that power of religious prin-
ciple which sustained the desolated heart Of the
bereaved.

FURTHER FOREIGN EXTRACTS.

Some apparent evaporation of feeling between
the English and French politicians, arising from
the result of the Spanish marriage question. and
the success OF the French policy in reference TO
it is still kept up, but the matter is too unimpor-
tant, in any possible effect which it can have on
the national interests OF either country to be per-
mitted TO produce any serious disaffecton between
the two Courts. All the forms of official courte-
sy are observed, and it is hardly supposable that
any difference of views in regard TO this question
will disturb the harmony between the two coun-
tries.
The Tribunal Of Conventional Police of Lille
has delivered its judgment in the case OF the &C.
cident which occurred at Faurpoux on the sth OF
July last, by which part of passenger train on
the Northern Railroad was precipitaied from a
high embankment into marsh, by means of
which IA persons persisted, mostly by drowning,
and many others were injured. The verdict was
one Of acquittal, and the accused were discharged
without costs. The court decided that the imme-
diate OF the disaster was the running Of the
train off from the rails, but the of its run
ming of was what they were unable to ascertain
by the most diligent investigation.
royal ordinance has been issued in Paris, es-
tablishng two protessorships in the Univer-
ty-one on Mathematical Astronomy or Mccani-
que Celeste, created specially for NJ. Leyerrier

The aSSatic Cholera in Persia. According
10 the Gazette Medicale, six princes and several
princesses of the court of Persia have been cut
off by the Asiatic cholera. The mother OF the
Prince Royal, and the only daughter OF the Schah,
had been attacked, but had recovered under the
treatment OF DR.. Cloquet Among the victims
is the celebrated Mira About Hassan khan,
minister OF Foreign Affairs who was a minister
in this country in the year 1920. Another min
lister OF the Schah, the Yizier of the Prince Row
al, and other high iunctionaries OF the court have
also been cut off by the cholera. The disease APP
pears to have been particularly fatal among the
upper classes. 1t was spreading in all directions
and il had taken the course Of Astfachan and
Moscow 1t was expected, however, that its
progress would be arrested by the COLI of winter
