over him, darkness Seemed to close around
him. Casting an impIofing look to Hea-

Several days afterwards, three bodies

TO be those OF the murderer and suicide, and
his innocent victims. They were buried

observations" on certain points ofScripture,
If clothed in elegant language would do
honor to men OF education. There was a

FAMILY GOVERNMENT.

On the correct formation of character,
hangs all which is dear 10 the human race.

much 10 do in its formation, but these Iall far
below parental training in this directing aud

good OF the teacher, is in a great measure Sc
cured by well sustained family discipline.
In most insiances, it may be undeniably
affirmed that, the foundation of character for
subsequent life, is laid under parental ihlu.

AFFECTING INCIDENT.

Yesterday morning we witnessed scene
that we liille believed could be enacted
within the orders of Kentucky. The sieam-
boat g. w. Kendall was lying at the wharf
at The foot of Wall street, preparing 10 start
for New O leans On the 70 castle deck stood
group consisting Of a master and foe or SIT
slaues, including aromoa ,cih child at The
braasf, who were apparently going 10 the
South Just as The last bell of the steamer
rang out its peal for departure, and and the
lines were about TO be cast loose, the mother
was babe 10 give up her infant, and was Told
she must so without it. At this iniimaiion
the poor creature became frantic with grief.
She caressed The child moment then flew
TO her trunk, in which had been packed va
rious little articles OF clothing that she had
sed ferventy 10 her lips and then bestowed
them upon the child-ier master then Or
dered her 10 follow him, and she mechnni.
cally started 10 obey, but the promplings of
nature were too Strong within her swelling
breast to be resisted, and, with loud sobs of
grief. she turned, embraced her child and
chung TO it with the tenaciiy of despair.
The heart rending grief Of the woman, and
her frantic gestures, attracted The attention
of persons passing along the levee, and strong:
ly excited the sympa,hies of many.--Thc
owner was asked by gentleman if he would
sell The woman and child. To this he assem-
ted aud demanded $3.50 for them. Upon
inquiry, however, it was a.certained that the
woman was TO be sold down the river and
that the child would be disposed Of here.
| The bystanders volunteered TO raise subscrip-
lions to buy the child, and send it with its
mother, and several of them proTered ten
dollars apiece. AT this iunc,ure Captain Nor
ton, captain Of the boat, came forward and
told the owner Of the slaves iha, he would
not take him on his boat, and sen, the whole
party ashore, and in Il few moments the siea;
