Love-.

The true key of the Universe is love-
That levels all inequalities, ''makes low
the mountain and exalts the valley" and
brings to human beings of every age and
every station into state of brotherhood
"The lion and lamb lay down together :
the leopard dwels with the kid, aud lit
tie child shall lead them" What unprcj-
udieed man can look abroad in the world
and not see thisi The splendid sun, the
cerulean sky, the majestic trees, the green
earth, the Thousand colors that thamel the
mead; the silver stream, in beauty COM
posed and serene. living in the endless
flow of its waters, aii talk of what soitens
The heart, and inspire kindness and aifec-
ton In ots dispositions and feelings. LAS
not God made man the crown Of His works
and stamps all his limbs with majesty and
grace, and shall we treat harshness and
with indignity what God has chosen for
his living temple 7
No: the man is austre TO his brother
mortal lis the true practical atheist. The
true system for governing the world, for
fashioning the tender Spirits Of youth, for
smoothing the pillow Of age, is Love
The one thing which most exalts and IL
Illustrates man is disintrrested affection. We
are never 50 truly that we are not capable
Of being, as when we are ready TO sacri-
flee ourselves for others, and immediate our
self-lore on the altar of bcnGcence. There
is no JOY like the JOY Of generous ssenti-
ment, to go about doing good. Ts make
it our meat and dfink to promote the hap
piness Of others, and dilfuse confidence and
love 10 every one within the reach Of our
inhuelce.- Cloudsleg.

Free Passes OH Railroads.

The system of fKee- passes granted BY
raillo DAD companies to parties, on differen
considerations of courtesy or implied ser
vice, is acknow lodged to have grown into
an abuse, bearingly GENEROUSLY upon the
Companies and unjust to the travelling pub.
lIic who really do pay. But the attention
directed to the subject has so far done little
more than increase the injustice Of the sys-
tenn by throwing the onus of it upon those
who are entirely irresponsible for its worst
features. The pubic have in fact come TO
the conclusion that the press is the great
"deadheadn of whose unremlncratve
transportation railroad companies complain.
Editors, reporters ard correspondents are
supposed to constitute the large bulk Of
that favored class who pass free in railroads
and steamboats,. ts
The n Y. T'ribtine shows from positive
statistics that on the roads running out Of
New York the free passe9 granted to the
press, comprise but minute portion of the
vast number showered upon Legislators,
councilmen, and others. We have not the
statistics OF the roads running out OF Balti-
more, but there is not doubt would sus-
tain the views presented by the Tribune.
The fact is, those who eessfel the press.
have not the opportunity 10 avail them
selves to any great degree OF the privileges
which the uaiBitlated view as the great
prize of journalism. The uuceasieg eare
and toll of newspaper life, tie them down
too closely to allow of their flying about
the country merely because for few hun
bred miles they have the privilege Of
free passage. The writer CT this may state
bis own experience as u case in point
Though for nearly decade Of years con-
nected with the Baltimore press, he Las
never travelled on the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad further than Frederick, and on
that occasion, for it has occurred but once,
paid his laIe. We presume that the ex-
perience OF very many OF our colleagues
would net differ much from this.
But while these privileges are SO charity
used by the press, the labors they are ex-
pected to perform as remuneration for the
courtesy of free press, IRE neither few
nor unimportant. We do not class among
those labors any presumed duty to defend
company from blame where it Is justly
due to hide its omissions and failures, for
we are sure that no honest or influential
journal could be betrayed into any such
compact. The laboIs we refer TO are those
of Erecting attention to the affairs OF the
company, giving publicity to It's reports,

How Fo1In O. Nstive:s,n

II seems that the wooden. nutmeg NOR
aists OF Connectirut, II, excepting native
wine aud cider from the edition of the
Maine law, were following in the cloven
footsteps oftheil porcine brethren in OHIO.
We learn this from an abstract of the Ohio
Maine Law, published in the New York
Tribune.
We cannot avoid the conclusion that the
Buckeyes adopted their law when uddled
with Cincinnati champagne, and that the
Connectieutians reeled after them when
hopelessiy tipsy with New Haven cider.
The Two parties ought 10 meet together
somewhere, and have native drink.
We have Just been informed, by the
way, that bill Is about to be presented to
the Legislature of Connecticut, providing
that murder, when committed by means oil
homemade guns or pistols, shall be con-
sidcred as jjustifiable homicide. The oh-
ject Of the bill is to encourage the manu-
iacture Of Colts reviewers aud sharp's RI
tes, which is extensively carried on in
Hartford:
A similar bill is to be introduced into the
Ohio Legislature, providing that assassina-
ton, when accomplished by means Of ma
tive bowieknives, should be punishable
with Tine no, exceeding Ave dollars,
ii paid in cash, and not exceeding d

MISCEI. L A NEO It S.
A Short story Of Life and Dea tb.

I
The St. Louis Anzeiger notices the
death OF lady in that city, whose remains
were placed in an old coffin made of rough
boards, and conveyed to the grave by the
corporation cart. 1t then adds:
This coffin contained the corpse of la
dy who once was sincerely adored by
hundreds-who once was honor ed ex-
tolled, enyied in soeiety-who could com
mand riches, and who few years ago, be-
fore she tiod the shores OF this continent,
could expect happy and eentented old
age.
This lady was Roso Neschemi, the
daughter of an immensely wealthy Polish
nobleman. In eafiy youth she was taken
to the Imperial Court of Austria. where, in
her eighteenth year, she was married. to "a
French nobleman, who was also very rich.
Rosa Neschemi live many long and happy
years, partly upon the POSSESSIONS Of her
husbands, partly travelling through Ger
many, Spain, Italy, and England, and gave
birth to three SONS, who received the best
edueationi and upon whom the eyes Of the
parents rested with great pride.
But then the July revolution at Pats
came ; Rosa's husband ,eolS considerable
aid active part in il, and on the 2Sth he
fell from the effect Of three shots which he
received. His name is still honored with
place on the column in the Place dc la
Bas.ile.
Her eldest son, who was at one time sec
rotary to King Ferdinand. was assasslnated
in Spain. The second became clergy
man, and soon after died and the third,
coming TO New Orleans when Is years OF
age, subsequently made money, and five
ears ago he pursuaded his mother, then
residing in Switzerland, to come to New
Orleans also, which she did, bringing with
her about So, 900 in money. Uniortunate-
y the son became Incorporate, spent near
ly ali her money, and year ago, having
m ordered Creole he was compelled to
fly to parts unknown, learug his mother
almost penriless in strange city. Che
started on her return to Switzerland, but
fell a victim to the destroyer at St. Louis.

Misery of statesmen.

Probably Few great philosophic states;
men-few men, that is, who had acted in
iimateiy in public affairs as well as con-
templated them from the closet-ever
quilted tie stage without feeling of pro-
found discouragement. Whether success
full or unsuccessful, as the world would
deem them, sense of sadness and dlsap.
pointment seems to prevail over every
other sentiment. They have attained SO
few of their obiects--they hare fallen SO
far short Of their ideal-they have seen
so FITCH more than ordinary men OF the
dangers and difficulties Of nations, and Of
the vices and meanness Of public men.--
Not many Englishmen governed so long
or so successfully as Sir Robert Peel or
set in such halo of blessings and esteem
yet shortly before his death, he confessed
that what he had seen and heard in PUB
lie life had left upon his mind prevalent
impression oil gloom and gre.. Who ev

the termination Of long life spent in the

Power is heavy burden, and mankind
hard iaskmaster TO him who struggles
virtuously against their passions and their
