THE HON. A. II. STEPHENS.

Tho Baltimore American Of the 7th in
stant, in alluding to the thrilling incident
related BY Mr. Stephens in Lis recent I'D
dresp u meeting in Alexandria for the
benefit Of the orphan asylum, and which We
recently published, furnishes some very
interesting "Reminiscences. Of the advent Of
this gifted son Of Georgia into political life.
Il seems that At the time he vas first nom-
mated for Congress il was without any hope
ofsuccsss 90 the part Of his political friends,
owing to tho large majority the Democrats
welded 10 what was called the Cherokee
Country. But Mr.. Stephens, with the iu-
domitable energy and perseverance, that
traces the life OF oil selfmade men.
was determined not 70 be defeated; and
unaeompanied Get out tor tho stronshold
q To enemy, and thesc commenced his
political campaign. The American thus
describes the manner in which be was re-
csived, and the success that crowned HE e.
forts:
The people followed him with enthusi-
ssm-men, women and children thronQed
to hear ''thc little wire grass boy," n thoy
called him, and lost their devotion 10 de-
mocracy ~ they listened 10 his convincing
arguments aud impassioncd appeals
Many laughnLlc anecdotes are told Of his
meetings with The hardy moantaineers II
Upper Georgia. On one occasion an old
lady, who had come groat distance 10
bear him, and bad listened TO the we'll d.
Fecsed cloquence Of tho boy, Is she suppo-
sed, until she could restrain her admiration
NO longer, sprang from her scat, and ex-
clsimed-@Gracious goodness nc! if !
could only have bow like that I'd he vii
lin 10 die right no~r' On anoaLcr coca
sion, tho democrats, seeing that their spea-
kcr vas getting tic worst Of the conflict.
endeavored to break up tho meeting, and
several Of them with cares in their hands,
advanced towards the stand whcro Mr.. s.
was speaking. "S,op!n shouted IN old
mounsaineer who had been standing by,
resting on his double barrcllcd buck gun,
looking up with broad grin into the face
ofthc speaker, and giving emphasis TO his
words significant winks, mods and jerks Of
head-"Stopm said he, Ut the same time
presenting bis gun u tho crowd, .sDont
ono Of you lay finger on the boy. I'm rs
good . dimmycrat - any ofye, but ! wont
see no foul play. Hes tellin you no,hing
but the truth, aud one Of you dares 70 touch
him, Ill let old Betsy loose among you
quickes'n you can say Jack Robinson. "
The confusion vas som QUOTED, and Mr..
Stephens proceeded with his speech.

A CORRECT TASTE IN CH1LDREN.-

A CORRECT TASTE IN CHILDREN
In many way the mother can contribute
to the formation ola correct taste. The
first hymns she teaches to the lisper,
and even the earliest notes which she
sings for its lullaby, should be chosen
with care. The pictures with which
the walls of the nursery are adorned
should be selected with studlous and
cultivated regard for real beauty. Like
nesses of excellent men and women
whose names you would choose to have
your children love-are very desirable
ornament. A few elegant historical
pictures which might be used as intro
ductions to general history, or which
are calculated to inspire noble senti-
ments, would be found of great utility
in every family able to have them. A
few we'll finished landscape pieces
would also tend to foster love of ma
ture in its cheerful and it's sublime as
poets. There is refining and effectu-
al influence arising from a daily falni-
liarity with the scenery Of nature,
whether it giows before us in its origi-
nal loneliness, or in the representation
of the genuine artist.
Port Tobacco times, and Charles County advertiser. (Port Tobacco, Md.) 1845-1898, 1849-12-12

Ihave seen the little pearls ola spring
sweat through the bottom Of a bank,
and penetrate the stubborn pavement,
till it hath made it fit for the impression
of child's foot; and it was dispersed,
like the decending dews of a misty
morning, till it had opened its way, and
made stream large enough to carry
away the ruins of the undermined
strand, and to invade the neighboring
gardens ; but then the despised drops
were grown into an artificial river, and
an intoIerable mischief. So are the first
entrances of sin stopped with the anti
dotes of hearty prayer, and checked
into sobriety By the eye Of a reverend
man, or the counsel Of "a single sermon:
but when such beginnings are neglect,
ed, and our religion hath not in it so
much philosophy, as to think, anything
evil so long as we can endure it, they
grow up to ulcers and pestilen,ial evils;
they destroy the soul by their abode,
which at their first entry might have
been killed by the pressure of little
nger-Jeremy Taylor.
