on the Green mountains of Vermont. True.

wrapped her infant in it. The mother wal
found locked 10 the arms of death, but the

romantic story respecting the happy Pair

with her brother, q Southern gentleman Of
fortune, and on the return voyage they EN-

serving as common sailor. By some ac-
cident, she was knocked overheard in the
harbor Of Liverpool, sank to the bottom,
and was given up for lost Our hero, how
ever, did not abandon the search. A slight

lock of hair being pulled out in the attempt,
and which is still preserved. After some
hours of persevering exertion, she wat
finally brought to and perfectly restored
She was deeply grateful to the preservel

CoLp MATER SAFETY STEAM ENGINE.-The
numerous explosions Of steam boilers Of late
years, have quito work the ingenuity Of mechan-
les and others, to invent machine afOrding the
same power as the steam engine, or to make such

render explosions less numerous. An inven-
ton has been made BY person in Virginia, and
a model produced, that justifes the hopes Of
the inventor that his invention will meet with
favor, snd be brought into general use. This
inveption dispenses entirely with boilers. The
steam ia raised by means of small jet Of cold
water injected upon large plug Of iron liked
in the furnace, and of sufficient bulk to retain
Che heat that might be dissipated. By a very
simple, but perfect contrivance, this steam en-

complex than the common engine, and it is be-
iieved that for q given amount Of power. it can
be more economically worked But the great
beautyis It's Immunity from accidents, it being
utterly impossible for an explosion Of any ex-
tent to occur, for the simple reason that there is
nothing in it larger than cylinder to explode

Such stand has been made. Many OF
those who have led off in it have evinced a
violence of temper that seemed little cal
culated to bring about the settlement of any
exciting question in fraternal spirit. We
all thought and said, such course cen
bring about no other end than the further
confirming of the North in the spreading
opinion that slavery is essentially intoler-
ant aud domineering, and at war with the
principles of human freedom aud good gov
ernment. Such was the effect produced
to very great extent; and ultraism at the
North became as fanatical and dangerous
to the peace of the Union as the intolsr-
ance of the South. "f7E H1" I'D
But has not good to the South grown out
of this very state Of things? Would it 9th
erwise ever have been brought about that
the great intellect of Webster would have
been reused from its sluggish repose. and
excited to the examination of the whole
issue involved between the two sections of
the Union,z which has resulted in the tri-
umphant and imperishable vindication of
the rights, feeling and honor of the South.
Would it otherwise have been brought
about that the strong conservative feeling
| in the Northern and Eastern cities, that
through their powerful daily journals do so
much mould the public sentiment Of the na-
ton, would have been aroused to such de-
Termination to stand by the friends Of the
Union and secure to the South the rights
guaranteed to her under the constitution?
The unanswerable speech Of Mr.. Web
ster, showing how that the South is entitled
to claim the admission Of slave States form
ed ont of the territory Of Texas, and that
any legislation on the subject of slavery in
references either to California or New Mex
leo, is uncalled for and needless, and can
not obtain his sanction, must eventually be
sustained by majority of the Northern
lpeople-by all indeed Of the right thinking
portion of that section Of the Union. And
this -consummstion will prove an era Of no
small moment TO the South-for in guaran-
teeiug their equality in the Union, and the
respect of their rights, it must secure peace
and prosperity in ali their borders, ,.,-
