you. Very painful and ugly things, if You
were naughty; beautiful things, and angels,
if you were good. Do you not remember,
how often, in the Bible, we are told Of good
men who had their eyes opened, and saw and
talked with angels?' ?'' ...
YES" replied the little girl, and ad-
ded, in low and rcyerent voice, They
saw the Lord, too, after he had risen; and
he blessed them. He said 9 Peace be with
YOU
"Ycs. love. All those holy things men
saw with their spiritual eyes, when it
pleased God to open them"
"Why will He not open ours now, and
let us see angels -
God loves us, my child, with an infinite
love, and if it were good for us, He would (;
but He does not, and therefore we may
know that it would do us harm. Do you
think, if you saw angels and other spiritual
things about you all the time, you could at
tend properly to your lessons, and the other
duties you have to perform here!''
"No,' said Alice, Il do not think l
could, for even the little birds flying past,
make me look up from my book"
After long pause, during which her mo-
ther kept silence, that the little one might
have time to garner in her golden harvest OF
thoughts, she looked up again and said with
great earnestness, Mother, should like
to die
kissing tendcrly, the little upraised face
her mother replied, Il hope, dear one, that
YOU uW like to die. when it is Gods will tc
take you; but, remember, merely dying
does not take us to Heaven. You must be
glad and grateful to live; you must make
the very best use you possibly can of thu
time God gives you, for it is only SO that W.
can become good and happy in this world
or any world. And now, my darling, it il
late, and you must go to bed. Give me ont
more kiss; and do not forget to say YOU
prayers before you go to sleep. If you arr
a good girl, will tell YOU more about Hca
ven some other day. Good night"
Little Alice went to bed full of thought
but 10 sooner had her innocent head touchc,
the pillow, than she was in sound, swec

Natural Religion.

The Yankee Blade furnishes the following
definition of the religion of mature" 1t
comes remarkably near the truth;
|. Look out for number one.
2. Use others all you can, and let them
''use" you as little as possible.
3. Get money; honestly, if you can, but
get money. -...
4. Hold on to what you've got, and get as
much more as you can.
5. Every one for himself, and the ID
take the hindmost.
Here you have the whole thing in a nut
shell. There is no use of mixing whole
reams of paper, with explanations of the
subject, for here you have the exact doc
trine in which the world believes, and which
is practiced upon by vast majority of the
people of every nation on the globe.

Present State of things in Cuba.

The Havana cores spondent of the n. Y.
Courier and Enquirer describes the present
state of things in Cuba as follows:
The island is perfectly quiet. Nothing OF
an exciting nature has occurred since the
execution of Lopez, or at least nothing has
transpired, save the announcement that two
steamers with 500 men were seen on the 3D.
at Key West, which is generally doubted.
Spanish rule upon the island is now more
firm, for a time at least, than ever. The
entire Discrimination or fear OF tic Crcoles
to take part in a revolution for the obtaining
their own independence has been but too
plainly demonstrated; too plainly. for the
proof has cost two hundred men their lives.
One word as TO Lopez's landing. Ii was
on the most disadvantagcous spot possible.
1t was upon the very narrowest part of the
island called the Neck. within fiji miles
of the city, and where fifteen hundred
troops could surround him. and thus rot only
fatal to himself. but nearly 50 to those who
would have joined him. if, indeed any Gu
ban would dare TO dream Of such a thing
Had lie landed with two thousand instead OF
two hundred men. toward the cast or west
end Of the Island. he would probably have
/ been able to keep the field for month, and
/ by that time would have doubled his num-
bers by recruits from New Orleans. l,

THE MIssIssIppI.-The Rev. B. T. Kav-
anaugh, editor of the st. Louis Christian
Advocate, who was for three years Super
intcndcnt of Indian Missions of the Upper
Mississippi river, has settled the much dis
pu.ed point of Etymology and precise mean
ing of the name given TO the noble and ma
iestic river which waters the Great Valley
He says it is composed Of two distinct
words: .lieSses (great) and SeEpe (river) and
signifies Great River" and not Father of
Waters" or Father of Rivers, as has been
heretofore generally believed. DR.. Kavan-
augh says that the word is pronounced by us
as it is written and called by the French,
which does not give the trus pronunciation
according to the English sound of letters.-
ITO obtain the original Chippewa sounds of
letters. ITO obtain the original Chippewa
sounds Of the words, we should write il

Terrible Commotion in the Democratic
Party-The Donaldson and Greer
Correspondence

correspondence,
The celebrated Donaldson and Greer cor
respondence, which we published a short
time since, is going the rounds of the press,
and, in every place it is published, it Gre
ates great deal of noise and confusion"
We expected as much, for it was an open
ing of the seals which certain portion Of
the Democratic party were not prepared
for. 1t took them by surprise; for instead
of the letters being safely placed in a car
pet bag, 10 and behold they appeared rerba-
tim et Hteratim, in the New York Herald,
which, according to the rumors of the day,
has a very large circulation throughout the
civilized world. 1t is further said that
these rich and racy epistles were purloined,
Otherwise they could not have reached our
office. That may be; the thing is possible.
We, however, did not purloin them, no
more than we purloined Mr.. Trist's cele-
bratcd treaty with Mexico, which came out
of some other carpet bag, we suppose, and
appeared in our columns in the same man
ner as the Donaldson CORES spondence did
not only ahead of the mail but ahead of the
telegraph.

The first batch Of correspondence created
that caused by our publishing the call for {
meeting of Democratic National Conven,

appeared in the Philadelphia PennSyluanian

cratic National Executive Committee vii
soon be called together TO consider the whole
subject. We certainly have no objection
After copying the call for the Convention
which appeared in our columns, the Penn
sylvanian says:
'' Some talk has been created by the Don
aldson and Greer Correspondence, which
appeared recently in the New York Herald
consisting Of letters from many prominen
politicians, addressed in reply to other let

sons called Donaldson and Greer. Certain
, men, in the opposition or Wing ranks, hav'
| taken occasion TO hold the Democratic part,
responsible for letters written by abolition
lists and others, to these persons, who,
they ever had an existence, never had an,
authority TO speak for the Democratic party
So absurd has this attempt been proved t
? be, that it has been pretty generally aban
, doned. From the above, we see that
new movement has been started in Ne,
York, called a Democratic National Conver
