An Important Question Settled.

Not long since in an out Of tho way village
in Texas debating society was formed. The
ambitious youths who supported it saw each
Of their meetings big with the fate Of Rome, =
and they accordingly underwent their martyr
dom with becoming dignity, solemnity and
painful researches into the mysteries Of john
sons Dictionary and the School Rhetoric
After fighting such opponents as Is Virtue
its own Reward ?" "Was Julius Caesar a
greater man than Cleopatra ?" &C., &c., and
completely settling them to the satisfaction Of
the young ladies Of the village, the faculties
Of the society were attacked one evening in a
very violent manner by the following ques-
ton: "If A. plant a watermelon seed in his
own ground, on one side Of fence, and the
vine runs over the fence into BIS. property,
and produces there only one melon, and none
anywhere else, and b. eats that Melon, what
ought A. do to B-considering both as chris
tians and men with families ?"
A whole week was given for preparation.
The eventful evening came which was TO de-
eide BIS. fate. All the fashionables in the
village were present, as were also the unfash-
ionabes. Many profound and brilliant dis
plays Of eloqucnce were made. Still no one
could settle BIS case. If neither he nor A
had been Christians, and men with families,
there would have been no difficulty. Any or
ator could have made A. co-wollop" B.
and the mellon would have been paid for, but
this conclusion was utterly out Of the case.
Finally, when the minds Of the speakers and
listeners were 50 puzzled that they would will
lingly have taken a VOW never to say "melon"
again, tall, looking youth, who had hitherto
remained silent and unobseryed, rose from a
corner, and was delivered Of the following able
argument:
Mr. President, said the lank youth, =. 1
rise to settle that ar question. | rise for to
say, Mr.. President, that if was for to plant
watermelon seed on this here side Of that ar
fence here the orator began laying out
plan on the table with pens, paper and waters
-"and the watermelon seed was for to pro-
duce a vine, and that ar vine travelled over
that ar fence, and crawled down on this here
side Of that ar fence, and that ar watermelon
vine thar produced. and no whar else, a single
watermelon, and you, Mr. President. was that
ar feller b., and was for to eat that ar water
melon, and ], Mr.. President, was that ar feller
b., and you was for TO eat that ar watermelon
and /, Mr.. President was that ar feller A..
and we were both christians, and both men
with families-do you know, Mr.. President
what / would do?" The society and the au-
dience here listened intently. "Why, Mr..
President, I would think you was dod darned
ongenerous" !"
This eiEectually settled the question; the
society broke up in disorder, and some Of the
young ladies' we're suspected Of having gone

CURIOUS Theory RELATIVE TO THE De-
LUCE: NOBODY DROWNED AFTER ALA
clergyman Of Cincinnati, Rev. Mr.. Stuart,
has broached somewhat novel hypothesis
respecting the scriptural account Of the De-
lure. lie insists that it is an allegory, and
assumes that the ark is intended to represent
the church established BY Noah and bis pos
terity, into which was incorporated every
principle Of doctrine and duty necessary for
the salvation Of man at that day. To enter
the ark was to be confirmed in the life Of re-
ligion which it represented. The flood Of wa
ters he considers the emblem Of an inundation
Of evil and impiety, and refers to various pas
sages in Daniel, Isaiah, jeremiah and the New
Testament, for the purpose Of showing that
the encroachments, falacious reasoning and
false principles are not only compared in the
scriptures to floods Of water, but are actually
R0oas and the oyerhowing Of rivers This
he argues, is the real import Of the food in
the time Of Noah. The perishing Of the mil
lions by the deluge is to be understood, he
says, in spiritual sense, as the perishing Of
souls, BY the overwhelming influence Of sin.
In lecture upon the subject, delivered BY
Mr.. Stuart, he advances many plausible argu-
ments in support Of his theory. A literal
food, like that described by Moses, the rever-
end gentleman says could not have taken
place. Men Of science reject as an absurdity
the idea Of universal deluge having occurred
since the creation Of man. Geology utterly
confutes this supposition. The learned Dr.
Buckland, the orthodox DR.. Hitchcock, and
many others equally worthy, have abandoned
il, and none stand out for the literal food OK
cept stubborn few who make the omnipo-
tence Of God the scape-goat Of physical impos-
sibilities. These are Mr.. Stuart's views as
we find them reported in Cincinnati paper,
and We give them as somewhat startling inno-
vations upon the general belief without ex-
pressing any opinion as 70 their soundncss.--

COMPARATIVE COMMERCE OF THE ATTAIN
TIC CIrIEs.-0f the four principal ports,
New York takes the lead, and her imports are
considerably more than all the rest OF the
country. Next comes Boston, with about
one-ffh Of the commerce Of New York, then
Philadelphia. with considerably less than one
half, and Baltimore with about one-fourth Of
that Of Boston. New York imports about
$15O,0OO.OO0 Of goods; Boston $50, 100000
to S35,OOO,OOO. Philadelphia $4,000. 900.
and Baltimore $S,0O0000. Although the
latter named cities have a very respectable
foreign trade, yet the commerce Of this coun-
try may be said to be controlled by the cities
Of Boston and New York. The immense
wealth Of these two cities, amounting to the
enormous sum, in the aggregate, Of five hun
dred millions Of dollars viii always enable
them to defy all competition Of The manage
ment Of those great branches Of commerce
that require a vast capital for their transac-
tions. The united valuation Of Philadelphia
and Baltimore in 1S49, was but one hundred
and forty millions. The East India and Paci-
fc trade, excluding the vessels bound to Cali
fornia, employs at the present time 2S3 ships
105 barks, Of which not hardly vessel il
owned in Philadelphia or Baltimore, and,
with the exception Of a few vessels owned in
Salem, is entirely controlled by New York
and Boston-New York having majority Of
the China trade, and Boston controlling near
" all the Calcutta, Manila. Batavia, Suma-
ira. Cape Of Good Hope, and Chill and Pc
ruvian trade.-Boston Traveller

From Godey's Lady's Book.
Sister, ] Miss Thee.
By J. n. DURAND.


Sister, miss thee in those hours Of gladness
When round me lit the beautiful and gayi
Then DER my spirit comes a tinge Of sadness,
And from the scene I fain would turn away.
Bright eyes may sparkle, and soft words may greet
me;
Companions may be winning-sweet their smile
Yet, il there be no answering eye to meet me,
NV heart, midst all their joy, is sad the while
Sister, miss thee when day-cares are pressing
Upon my mind, usurping every thought:
OH It's such times as those | miss the blessing
That once a sisters cheering influence wrought
They pass away without the power Of scathing-
Those earth-born striles, and bustling, ranking
cares,
When hope and peace loved one round are breath
ing,
When hopes are frightened by siste6s prayers.
Sister, I miss thee when the day is waning
When comes the loye-inspiring vesper hour,
A breathing stiffness all around us reigning-
The heart given DER to inspirations power.
Once, in such moments. with responsive feeling
You wandered, gazed, and did admire with me
But now around me memories are stealing,
And all my thoughts, dear sister, are with thee.
Sister, I miss thee ever Scenes the brightest
Cannot thy ianced image from me part;
Forms that are farest and gay hearts the lighest,
Drive not the lonely feelings from my heart.
But to that hour Hope points her cheering finger,
When, home returning, again shall greet
A smiling sister and with her shall linger,
At morn and eve, again in converse sweet.
