the influence Of the thoughts that passed. per-

bosom of Paul, as he sat in the shadows Of his
prison, an old and unbetlicnded man; thoughts
which, lifting his manacled hands, he spread in
his epistlcs before the eyes OF men, thereto re-
main forever. They feel the effect Of the pious
mcditations of David while, roaming on the hill
side, an humble, shepherd lad; of the family picty
of Abraham, and Of the religious nurture that
trained up the infancy of Moses. Every nation
is affected at this moment by the moral power
that emanated from the despiscd Noah, as that
preacher Of righteousness sat among his family,
perhaps detected and FAINT with unsuccessful! toll,
teaching them to call upon God, when all the
families of the earth besides had forgotten Him.
And if the mind, taking its flight from the mar
row precincts of these walls, were to wander
abroad along the peopled hi6hways, and to the
farthest hamlets of our own land, and, passing
the seas to traverse distant realms and barbarous
coasts: every man whom It's travels met, nay, ev-

this earth in earlier ages, or that is now to be
found among its moving myriads, has felt, Or is
feeling, the influence Of tie thoughts Of a sota

the claims Of conscience and Of sin amid thcver
dant glories of the yet unfortcitcd paradise.

The Influence of Man over MAN.

The world is filed with the countless and in
terlacing filaments ofintiucnce, that spread from
each individual over the whole surface and frame
work of society," The infant that lies waling
and helpless in the arms of its mother, is alrca-
DIV welding an influence, felt through the whole
household, by his fretfuncss disturbing, or by his
serene smile gladdening that entire home; and as
with added years his facilities are expanded, and
the sphere Of his activity widens itself, his nfu-
ence increases; and every man whom hc meets,
much more whom he moulds and governs, be-
comes the more happy Or the more wretched, the
better or the worse, according to the character
of his spirit and example. Norcan he strip from
himself this influence If he flee away from the
society of his fellows to dwell alone in the will
darness. he leaves behind him the eXample Of
nerlccted duty, and the memory of dsregarGcd
love to curse the family he has abandoncd.-
Even in the pathless desert he fluids his own feet
cauoht in the thorns and entangcd web of influ-
ence that bound him to society, and his cords
ro,noin wherever he was once known, sending
home to the hearts that twlned around him, sor-
row and pain. Nor can the possassor expect it
to oo down into the grave with him. The sep
ulc6rc NAV have closed in silence over him, and
his name may have pershed from among men,
vet his influence nameless as it is, and untracc-
able by the human eye, is floating over the face
of society. ..,, =, y

Tie GEORGIA UNION DEMOCRATIC CoNvEN-
TIoN.--We learn from an extra Of the Atlanta
Mtelligencer, that this Convention assembled at
Atlanta, on the 18th instant, and was organized
by calling Hon. +. NJ. Charlton to the Chair. A
majority Of the Committee appointed to report
business for the action Of the Convention, report
cd correspondence with the Executive Commit
tee of the Southern Rights Democrats, from
which it appears that the latter declined to make
any change in their electoral ticket and express
ed The opinion that they had no power to do so.
The committee, though regretting that the ticket
could not be remodeled so as to mako it accep-
table to the Union Democrats, still think it inn
polite to nominate another ticket. The report
Of the minority of the committee, proposing a
Union ticket, was moved as substitute and was
lost. Whereupon the majority's report was
adopted almost unanimously.
We may now consider the Georgia Demo-
Gratis us united. The Union Convention IS
pledged mot to allow the condition of things in
that State to control their action, and will throw
no obstacle in the way Of concentrating upon
the present electoral ticket all the strength which
can be brought to it."

SOUTHERN TRADE.-Thc Philadelphia Bullc
tin. in noticing the proposed Southern CONNER
cial Convention, which it xl!ocs not believe ill.,
| continues its comments is follows:
"It is to her railroads that the South will be
principally indebted for the extension OF her COM
merce The great iron Chain Of communication,
which will soon join Charleston to Nashville, and
the latter to both Louisville and New Orleans,
must inevitably give increased vitality to the
entire region it travcrses. Within twenty years,
those Southern States through which these roads
shall pass, will double their population. The i'll
creased facilities of travel will, moreover, lead to
more frequent journeys to the coast, on the part
of the planters OF the interior; and the natural
result Of this must be more extensive diffusion
Of city taste, city expenses, and city energy also,
in the rural districts.
But this tide of travel will not come North
Charleston will be the focus to which the Ten
ncSseean Alabamian, Georgian, and Caronan
will tend There the products OF the vast region,
drained BY these roads, will concentrate There
they will be exchanged for foreign and domestic
goods. Thus Charleston will gradually become
a considerable port, from having first become
a great distributing market. As the Erie Canal,
by developing the Lake country. made New York
the mighty emporium it is so the Nashville and
Charleston Railroad, with its tributary branches,
will elevate the commercial capital Of South Ca
roina to its proper rank among Atlantic cities
ave arc Of those who rejoice at this promi-
sing prospect for the South. In some other
quarters the rising commercial importance Of
Charleston is regarded with jealousy. But such
narrow minded feelings are unworthy Of liberal
men. The trade Of this great nation is incrca-
sing with rapidity that will afford plentiful
support 10 all the Atlantic cities. The day. in
deed, cannot lie far distant when every consider
able port on the coast must be thronged with
shipping. \ hundred millions Of people (and
the population Of the United States will reach
that point before many who read these words
shall die) will require all the karbours that we
have to transact their export and import trade.
There will be enough left for Boston, New York,
and Philadelphia, let Charleston grow as fast as
it may"

\ WIFE SrAEED AT CARDs.-A recent French
paper reports that case was brought before the
correctional police, in which Madame T. brought
a suit for divorce against her husband. In the
course of the evidence it was proved that on two
different occasions the wife had been staked and
lost at cards, and the key Of her room handed
over to the winners! In the first case she es-
capped by Jumping out OF the window, and in the
other the winner was too much intoxicated to be
dangerous. The court granted an act of separa-
ton. but refused TO divorce the parties.

BY BERNARD BARTON.
What are riches! Hoarded treasures
May, indeed, the Golfers fill;
Yet, like earth's most feeting pleasures
Leave thee poor and hearess still.
What are pleasures? When afforded,
But by gauds which pass away,
Read their fate in lines recorded
On the sea-sands yesterday.
What is fashion? Ask of folly,
She her worth can best express,
What is moping melancholy!
Go and learn of idleness.
What is truth! Too stern preacher
For the prosperous and gay;
But safe and wholesome teacher
In adversity's dark day.
What is friendship? Ifwel founded,
Like some beacon's heavenward glow:
If on false pretensions grounded,
Like the treacherous sand below.
What is love! Heartily only,
Like meteor Of the night;
Shining but to leave more lonely
Hearts that hailed its transient light;
But when calm, refined and tender,
Purified of passions stain,
Like the morn in gentle splendor,
Ruling DER the peaceful main.
What are hopes but CLEANS Of Brightness
Glancing darkest waves between!
Or form-crested waves whose whlteness
Gladdens oceans darksome green!
What are fears? Grim phantoms, throwing
Shadows DER the pilgrims way,
Every moment darker growing,
If we'yield unto their sway.
What is mirth? a fash Of lightning,
Followed but by deeper gloom;
Patience, more than Sunshine, frightening
Sorrows path and labour's doom.
What is time? A river flowing,
To eternitys vast sea,
Forward whittier all ale going,
On its bosom bearing thee.
What is life? A bubble floating
On that.silent rapid stream
Few, too few, IFS progress noting,
Till it burst and ends the dream.
What is death? Asunder rendng
Every tie we loved so well;
But the gate Of life unendng,
Joy in heaven or woe in hell
