Never Despair.

The opal-hued and many perfumed Morn,
From gloom is born;
From out the sullen depth of ebon Night
The stars shed light;
Gems in the rayless caverns of the earth
Have their slow birth
From wondrous alchemy of winter hours
:, Come summer flowers;
The bitter waters Of the restless main
Give gentle rain;
The fading bloom and dry seed bring once
The years fresh store; lmore
Just sequence of clashing toned afford
The full accord;
Though weary ages, full Of strife and ruth,
- Thought reaches truth;
Through efforts long in vain, prophetic neet
Begets the deed;
Nerve then thy soul with direst need to cope
Life's brightest hope
Lies latent in Fate's deadliest lair
Never despair Household Words.

To my Mother.

The last tear I shed was the warm one thai
fell
As kissed thee, dear mother, and bade thee
farewell
When saw the deep anguish impressed on
thy face, 49,
And felt for the last time mothers en-
brace;
And heard thy choked accents, impassion-
ed and wild,
God bless thee forever, God bless thee my
child.
Thought Of my boyhood, thy kindness to me,
When youngest and dearest, / sat on thy
knee;
or thy love to me ever so kindly expressed,
As grew up to manhood, unconscious how
blest;
OF thy praises when right, and thy ehiding
when wrong,
When wayward with passion unyielding and
strong.
/ thought Of the counsels unheeded or
spurned, :,
As mirth had enlivened or anger had burned,
And how, when by sickness all helpless lay,
Thou didst nurse me and soothe me by night
and by day;
How much / had been both by sorrow and
JOY, -,
And my feelings o'erAowed and wspt like
boy.
Years, years of endurance have vanished,
Sd and now
There is pain in my heart, there is care on
my brow;
The visions of hope and of fancy are gone,
And cherries travel life's pathway alone
Alone! aye; alone, though some kind ones
there be,
There are none here to love me, to love me
like thee.
Ny mother, dear mother, cold-hearted they
deem
Thy offspring-but oh! am not what
seem;
Though, calmly and fearless, all changes
bear,
Could they look in my bosom, the feeling is
therei
And now, sad and lonely, as memory recalls
Thy kissing at parting, again the tear falls

with the beautiful kalmi0 Iatifoiio or
high laurel Nothing could exceed the
beauty of this walk when in hot July
day you could cross the little brook and
wander up the path beneath the thickly
leaved boughs of the chestnut trees,
while on either side of you the green
laurels would be heavily laden with
thick clusters of red and white flowers,
and the air would be filed with their
fragrant perfume, and the feathered
|songsters be making sweet melody above
you. But now the music and the flow
ers were gone, the graceful livery of the
trees had all faded and fallen and only
the evergreen laurel leaves remained to
tell of the beauty that had reigned there.
This was Henry Mobiles favorite resort.
It was here that he went when he left
the willow tree SO abruptly, and it was
here that Violet and Lionel had come
to seek him. But Henry had forced
his way through the thick hedge of
laurels and seated himself on a stone
which, though quite near the path, was
completely hidden by the clustering
leaves from the sight of those who walk
ed in it. t r.mslr.e ss. m I NJ
1t was while sitting here, plunged in
a melancholy revery taat he heard the
voices of Violet and Lionel as they
passed up the path, but did not perceive
him, and saw Violet place the crown
upon Lionel's brow. They passed on
and were soon out of sight, and Henry
leaned his head upon his hand and
mused again. Shall I tell you the
cause of his sorrow' He loved Violet,
but she had always looked upon him as
brother, and he doubted not that the
affection which the young school master
manifested for her was reciprocated.
Violet and Lionel wandered to the
fartherest verge of the wood, but found
no Henry there. Violet called him but
the echoes of her voice died away before
they reached his retreat. Lionel called
him too and the woods resounded with the
full loud tones, but Henry was so deeply
plunged in thoughts that he was not
conscious of hearing him. Indeed so
completely engrossed was he in his own
meditations that he heard no sound and
took no cognizance of what was passing
around him until his ear caught the low
tones of rich manly voice which SEEM
ed to proceed from some one going along
the path. s1srin8 ris sH "re9r|
Dearest Violet" said the unknown,
|" the misery or happiness of a life time
hangs upon your decision Must that
sweet voice which cannot disobey, utter
the sentence of my banishment from
all that can make life dear to me, when

making me the proudest and happiest of
men 2" hrmb seven B ~
Henry knew the accents well--they
were Lionel's. He heard not tho reply
nor cared to, for he doubted not what it
would be. Their footsteps died slowly
away in the distance, and he was left
alone again to dwell upon the bitterness
Of his own lenely heart. ll 30 ai-rl

John Dickson made the first deliberate and Sgs-

trade as tolerated in the District of Columbia,

THINGS IN WISCONSIN.

A friend in Wisconsin writes as follows
There is, however, considerable uneaSlnesS

pressing want of better prices for their produce,
and honestly believe wiser or higher tariii on
imports would have this tendency. Whether
correct or not, this much all know the present
prices of produce leave no profit to the farmer
in this region Of country, nor will furnish MN
wherewith to pay if he owes, or buy II he
wants, after defraying expenses OF raising, &C,
They say, with truth, We have plenty OF bread
TO eat. and fear starvation least OF anything
but we are compelled to live in our old houses
and wear our old clothes, for want OF just
price for our labor Say they, we are send
ing millions of gold to Europe to buy articles,
which, by little wisdom on the part OF our
Legislators, can be manufactured at nome;
thereby diverting labor to more channels, les
senine the amount of an article which becomes
drug in the market and furnishing that mar
ket nearer home Though never did service
in the ranks of the Wing party, must admit
there seems some force OF reason IN this, es-
pecially when we are sending such large ship
ments of gold over all other exports to pay for
eipn importations If this state of things con-
tinues there will be $50 it looks another strug-
gle among the people When general de-
preston strikes home to them all like the pres
ent, they feel, perhaps without wisely consider
ing which is the better policy, that some change
will prove better than stagnation and poverty"
A few considerations will show our friends
in Wisconsin that they have overlooked the
real causes of their present troubles, and that
the remedy is in their own hands
In 1910, the population of Wisconsin was
! only 3Ol45. In 1850. it had increased to
3O519l-at the enormous rate of $50 per cent
! Iowa in the mean time had increased its pOpu-
| lation from $4,000 to 192, OO0 or at the rate OF
| 345 per cent. The rate of increase in Ar
| kansas during the same period was only IA
per cent. and in every other State less than
| 100.
The growth of population in Wisconsin has
been unprecedented and one of its necessary
results has been, the impossbility of so diversi-
flying industry as to supply the natural wants
of the people The emigrants who have settled
in the State have turned their attention to the
readest and cheapest culture, that of wheat
and, like all communities who depend for sup
port upon the proceeds of single staple find
themselves embarrassed and in debt the mo-
ment glut in the market occasions fall of
prices
We ask their attention to the following table,
which we have prepared from the Census of
1850. A careful examination of it will put
them in complete possession of their own case
show them the real nature, cause. and remedy,
of their distress. 1t exhibits the comparative
population, modes of industry, and resources of
Michigan and Wisconsin:

Fugitive Law We recollect that great hopes
were entertained of the Doctor, when, before
his election to the last Congress, he pledged
himself, if elected, to introduce bill if nobody
else weuld, to abolish slavery in the District OF
Columbia. People are apt to get new light
when they come to Washington, and become
conscious, like Gen Cass and Mr. Representa-
tive Davis. of a change of opinion.

dict With an Introductory Poem, by J. q. Whit
| tier.
Here is briefly skctched the life of a true and
hero'c-hearted young Quaker who for the
crime of favoring the escape of some slaves
who had solicited his help, was imprisoned in
the Tennessee Penitentiary where he died Of
the cholera in August 1850. The principal
part of this little volume consists of letters writ
ten by young Dillingham; while in prison, and
those of the officers of the Penitentiary, bearing
testimony to his amiable character, upright de-
pertinent, and peaceful death.
ERE. Poem. BY George Wilhelm Skinner
This is pretty general sort of poem, we be-
lieye, the muse of Mr. Skinner being rather
vagrant in her habits and wandering at her
own sweet will over the domains Of sentiment,
science, and satire. As though madly bent ON
self-destruction, he makes use Of the heaviest
weapons of his satire against the poetic pre-
tenders and small rhymesters OF the day.
