FRANKLIN SMITH Esq.
Dear Sir:-Entertaining a profound
respect for the character Of the late
Hon. John C. Calhoun, and deeply
grateful for his many services TO the
country, we ~desireUthat there should be
some public manifestation ofthe feel
ings of this community, for the loss Ola
citizen so eminently distinguished for
his talents and virtues. We, therefore,
request you to deliver, in this place,
and al such time as may suit your con
venience, an eulogy upon the life OF
this pure patriot and gifted Stateman'-
We believe that in designating you for
this purpose, we express the general
desire Of your fellow citizens and we
are fully assured that none could be
selected with higher qualifications to
do iustice to the lllustrious dead.
With the highest sentiments OF res
pect, we are very respectfully.

err party, and in every conflict, or calamity, Is
most likely to be the greatest sufferer. Besides,
a young wife, amid the tolls aud cares OF new
maternity, ever needs the experience, advice, as.
sistance, and sympathy Of her own mother. And
lastly, there is Scripture for it"
Scripture for it"
Yes; from the first Of Genesis 10 the last Oh
Revelations, il is nowhere commanded that
rrom0n shall leave her parents; but Is very IRE
quently written, and rewritten, that a man snali
leave father and mother, and cleave to his wiiei
and the reason and justice of this is obvious RON
what have just said. have often thoughts
think all sorts of thipgs-that ii had mule
daughter, the more loved her, the more should
suffer in the thought Of the approaching age when
she should be taken from me; and sympath'ze
with all mothers, even with Mrs. Armstrong,
who would consider unnecessary, or insulting
for you are her only child, Louise, and she, per-
haps, is not the most dsinterested in her affection
for you, and therefore is more jealous, exacting,
unhappy, in her love-wanting the consolation
that seeing you happy might give her. But you
are weeping, Louise Do not weep, Louise !"
and the kind girl, regretting that in her love of
talk she had wounded the daughters heart, left
her night toilet half completed, and went to ca
less and console her.
