THE MoTHER's DUTIEs.-Here is beau
tiful gem from The pen Of Fanny Fern.-
Wido wed mothers, who have one or more
children kiug up to you for wisdom and
counsel read The following, and ponder we'll
the lesson il teaches:
"a little falherless boy, of four years Of
age, sa I upon the floor surrounded with toys.
Catching sigh! Of his mothers face, as the
tears fell thick and fast, he spraDg to her
side, and peeping curiously in her face, said
You've go,ME.' (Smple, arlless little COM
forler Dry your tears, young mo.her.-
There is something to live for; there are
duties from which even your bleeding heart
may no, shrink! A 'talen.' you may MOI,

must receive an account; blank page TO be

"'You've got me = Aye! Cloud no, his
sunny face with unsvailing sadness; lest he
catch the 'lrick Of GRIEF and sigh amid his

may be the warehouses and the

crowded may be the warehouses and the
market.
The present system thus presented, looks,
to future for i,self-not future of decay
and ruin, but future Of health and vigo'-
when having paid the residue of it's debt, it
shall fully realize the hopes Of those by
whom it was instituted. ], hssas have
said, purchased for itself the warehouses
now in use in this ci.y-it has paid for them
in part, and the State holds them for it, as
long as the people choose to preserve ils
existence, tina, they may use them. If the
present system is DESTROYED, what is to De-
come of this property II must be sold
no. for the Maryland p lanter and dealer, who
has purchased it-but for the State. The
planter, in ceasing TO use it, and determining
It shall not be used, has parted with all the
right he has in ii. He has been for y ears rais-
ing fund TO purchase what he throws away
in an nstant-small and unfeIt contributions
accumuIalIng for long period o: time, has
finally purchased facilities and accomm oda-
tons for his trade, which he surenders
with ready credui,y, yielding to the ingeni-
GUS SOpuIStIy vi
Wha, is he to do then? Why, simply to
build up another sys,em-to go back where
his father started, and buy other warehouses;
but this time no. for himself or his children,
but for the spectators in the city of Ball-
more.
II the planters Of Maryland are willing
thus TO part with property for which they
have paid, and which is properly their own,
and designed for their own use, and throw
it away wi,hou. any other consideration
than the privilege Of paying taxes TO the
keepers Of private warehouses, they are
mo,e sadly blinded to their interest than J
am willing to believe them. But the matter
demands their seriops consideration. Men
Of enterprise, energy and talent are prerar-
ing to make desperate assault upon the
existing system-lhey hope to kill il, and
then be its successors. If the planters can
be luleJ into temporary oblivion Of their
interest, they will wake only to appreciate
an evil then bey ond remedy.
have answered your letter thus fully,
because of the importance Of the subject Of
your inquiry, and because Of my own con-
nec,ion with the Tobacco trade OF Baltimore.

LITTLE BONNET.
There is little bonnet,
see it about town,
And little feather on it
That tosses up and down.
Beneath this little bonnet
Are two such jet black eyes
Oh thou cozy little bonnet
Lord I'll waste myself in sighs!
And what wonder see it moving
Adown the crowded street,
The little feather bowling DER it,
Nodding to the fairy feet.
Proudly goes the little bonnet,
Proudly trip the little feet,
And laughingly the eyes beam out
On every thing they meet.
Ho! clear the way, false curls.
With your faded beauty tricks!
Ho! clear the way, ye suckers,
OF the white nobs of your sticks !
Ho! smokers of Havanas,
Stop your putting ere that eye
Puts stopper on your fire
With its liquid brilliancy.
Proudly goes the little bonnet,
Proudly steps the little feet,
And laughingIy the eyes beam out
On every thing they meet!

THE WHALE.-The whale, having no air
bladder, can sink to the lowest depths OF
the ocean, and, mssking the harpoon Tor
the teeth Of sword-6sh or shark. he IN
s.sn.Iy descends, this being the manner OF
freeing himself from these enemies, who
csnno. bear the pressure Of deep ocean +;
and from ascending and descending in small
space he puts himself IN the power Of the
wbaler if he knew his force, and were to
swim on the surface in straight line, he
would break or destroy the machinery by
which he is arrested, as easy as the salmon
breaks the single gu. Of a fisher, when his
reel is entangled.
