A Noble Youth.

The following anecdote was related to
gentleman, during the night he spent
at farmhouse in Virginia, some years
ago.
ln December, IL, towards the close
of dreary day, woman and an infant
child were discovered half buried in the
snow. by little Virginian, seven years
old The lad was returning from school,
and hearing the means of some nne in
distress, threw down his satchel of books,
aud repaired 70 the spot whence the
sound proceeded, with frmness becom-
ing one of ripper years. Raking the snow
from the benumbed body OF the mother,
and using means to awaken her to sense
OF her deplorable condition. the noble
youth succeeded in getting her upon her
feet; the infant nesting on its mothers
breast, turned its eyes towards their
youthful preserver and smiled, as it seem.
ed in gratitude for its preservation. With
a countenance filed with hope, the gal
liant youth cheered the sufferer on, him
self bearing within his tiny arms the in
fant child, while the mother leaned for
support upon the shoulder of her little
conductor. MY home is hard by would
he exclaim as often as her spirits failed
her aud thus for more than three miles
did he cheer onward to happy haven
the mother and child, both of whom 9th
erwise must have perished, had it no
been for the humane feeling and perse
verance of this noble youth.
A Warm fire and kind attention. soor

months after, the identical house in whicl
we are sitting was erected, and received
the happy family. The child grew up tc
manhood-entered the army-lost liml
at New Orleans, but returned to end hi
days, solace to the declining years o
his aged parents.

SIMPLE REMEDY FOR BuRNs.-An es-
teemed lady friend sends US the following
"remedy for the most painful burns,
which; "ifapplied Immediately, affords
almost instant relief" She says: 1t con.
sists of equal parts of linseed oil and lime
water mixed together. 1t must be well
shaken before used, and poured over an
even piece of raw cotton, and applied to
the sore. 1t may be renewed two or
three times day. This remedy is inval-
liable to families and so simple that it is
within the reach of every one. She has
seen almost immediate relief derived
from the application of this mixture to
the most painful and serious burns, which
without it, might possibly have become
wide spread, tedious aud expensive
wounds.

1Ol Markets-.Advance in Prices

Wool NlarketSssAOVahCe III FftCeS'
The editor of the Washington CO., (Pa.)
Patriot, who is located among many OF
the best fine wool growers in the United
States, makes the following announce
ment in his paper of the Cd inst:
We learn from New York that the
prices Of woolen goods have advanced
from Is to 90 per cent; and private let
ters received here from the East say there
is not fine wool enough in all the eastern
cities to supply any one of the large man
ufacturing companies till the next clip
comes in. In connection with this we
may state that the agents of the Messrs.
Lawrence, in this country, are buying up
all the wool they can get. at prices con-
siderably in advance OF those paid last
summer and fall.
The cause of the late low prices OF
wool is easily explained. The revul'
sions in Europe last year threw upon the
Americas market large quantities of for
eign woolen goods, which we're sold at
ruinously low rates, for the sake of reali-
zinp quick returns. A necessity which
is not likely to occur again, forced the
foreign manufacturers to sell them far be-
low actual cost.-This drove the Ameri-
can manufacturers temporarily from the
market and as they had no particular
necessity for wool, they did not buy. ex-
cept where opportunity offered for get
ting it cheap.
These facts. in detail, we laid before
our readers last year, and advised them
to hold on to their wool, presuming that
when the foreign pressure was removed
from the market, prices would 60 up and
to the old standard. Our apprehensions
are beginning to be realized; prices are 60
ing up, and we doubt not before the next
clip comes in, wool will command the
prices of 1S47

More Consistency.

We have another beautiful specimen
OF LocofOco consistency. in the election
ot Chase to the Senate. After abusing
Mr.. Corwin, without regard to truth or
decency, for his opposition to'tbe Mexi-
can war, the Locofocos have elected
man as his colleague WHO'S notorious for
his opposition to that war-hwo has de.
nounced it as a war of aggression and
conquest, wsged for the wicked purpose
OF extending slavery. A man how has
approved Of the course of Mr.. Corwin
throughout on this question while he con-
demned that of Polk and his advisers!
But what atbetter could be expected oemen
who submit to the degradation Of selling
their votes-of being BRIBED to vote
for measures which they condemned. and
for men with whom they acknowledge
they have no political sympathy.-Cler-
