From the New York Evangelist.
The Slave Trade in New York
SINGULAR STATEMENT.

There is now lying in the Tsmbs in this
city man who has been tried nnI foun
guilty o. being engaged in the slave trade -
This is said to be the first conviction ever
obtained under the law by which it was made
piracy. The testimony in the case was um.
Ple,,. and though he protests against his
condemnaiioa, OH the ground that he is u
foreigner. and not amenab!e. 10 the laws OF
the United States, he does not deny the fact
OF bis share in the business. He speaks of it
freely, .and relates with unconcealed exulta-
!. tiontthe particulars OF his wild and desperate
career.
We have CHANGED to see and talk with this
noted captain in his prison. What he told
us was not communicated in confidence, for
he never. saw US before, and did not know
who we were. He spoke to us as an entire
stranger. All cur conversation was through
the grated door at his cell. We made no at
tempt to gain his confidence, or 10 draw out
thezsecret history of his life. He told US hi $
own story, not like criminal making a con.
fession, but rather with the freedom aad pride
OF an old solder relating his battles. Nor
did he intimate wish that what he SAID
ted TO others of his deeds on the African
coast. His disclosures, therefore, are pub
lie property. Some of these are so curious
as to be worth makirg known Whether he
tells the truth, the world must Judge. 1t is
not very probable that man would make up
story which implicated him in capital
crimes Besides, his account is consistent
with itself--it agrees with what. was proved
on the tricl, and with he descriptions in
CsptSGanot's book. We believe, therefore,
that he has let out the truth.
New York. says Captain Smith, 'is the
chief port indhe world for the slave trade

then one sails from Philadelphia, more from

10 say that this business is going on nowp-
sYes, all the while. Not so many vessels
have been sent out this year-perhaps not
ever twenty. But last year there were prob
ably thirty-fve.'
Are there large shipping houses engaged
in it!' .r
'Yes, can 60 down to South Street, and

The Winter of the Heart.

Let 1t never come upon you. Live so tht,
the good angels may protect you from this
terrible evil-lhe winter of the heart.
Let no freezing influences freeze up the
fountain of sympathy and happiness in It's
depth; no cold burden settle its wthered
hopes, like snow on the faded flower; no rude
blasts of discomfort mean and shrek through
its desolatc chambers.
Your lie path may lead you amid trials
which for time seem utterly to impede your
progress, and shut out the light Of heaven
from your anxious gaZe.
Penury may take the place OF case and
plenty; your luxurious home may be exchan-
ged for single, lowly room-the soft couch
for the straw pallet-the rich vianos for the
course food of the poor. Summer friends
may forsake You, and the Implying world
pass you by with scarcely Il louk or word OF
compassion.
You may be forced to toll YEARLY, steadily
on, to earn livelihood; you may encounter
fraud and the base avarice which would ex-
tort 10 the last farthing, till you well nigh
turn in disgust from your fellow beings.
Death may sever the dearest ties that bind
you to earth, and leave you in fearful dark.
ness. That noble, manly boy, the sole hope
ofyour declining years, may be taken from
you, while your spirit cings TO him with n
wild tenacity, which even the shadow Of the
tomb cannot wholly subdue.
But amid all these sorrows, do not come
so TIE conclusion that nobody was ever 50
deeply afflicted as you are, ind abandon eve
ry sweet anticipation Of "better days" in the
unknown future.
Do not lose your faith in human excel
lence because yodr confidence has sometimes
been betrayed, nor believe that friendship IS
only a deluson, and love bright phantom
which melts away from your grasp.
Do not think you are fated 10 be miserable
because you are disappointed in your expec-
tations, and batfled in your pursuits. Do not
declare that God has forsaken you, when
your way is hedged about with thorns, or re-
pine sinfuly when he calls your dear ones to
the land beyond the grave.
Keep q holy trust in heaven, through every
trial bear adversely with foriitude, and look
upward in hours of temptation and suffering.
When your locks are white, your eyes din,
and your limbs weary when your steps fal-
ter on the verge of Deaths gloomy vale, sti |
retain the freshness and buoyancy of spirit,
which will shield you from the winter of the
heart

But ID give far more, from my hearts full store,

Letihcm laud the notes that in music float,
Through the bright and glitiering halls;
While the omorous twill OF the hairs bright cur,
Round the shoulders Of beauty falls
Buidclrer to me il the song from the tree,
And the ricl and the blcssoming bourh,

With a selfish and hollow pride,

From lis hand. than 70 wealth I'd bow;
For t! 9 honest clasp Of bis hands rough grasp,
Has stood By the Good Old Plough.
All honor be then to those gray old men.
When at la: they are bowed with toll;
Their warfare then DER, they battle no more,
For they've conquered the stubborn soil;

To CLEAN BRAss.-If brass is corroded
with oxide-green or black-it cun be rcmo-
we'd by rubbing it with some diluted acid,
such as sulphuric. This is rubbed on the
brass with cloth or sponge, and the brass
washed in hot water. After this brass must
be we'll rubbed with rotten.stone and sweet
oil, and finished with whiting or irpoli. Some
persons use oxalic acid dissolved in water, in-
stead oG ulphurc acid for no above named
purpose, and i, is indeed, more convenient,

children.

C lasses, us existing ut this moment in the
civilized world, cannot think the difference
between the rich and the poor, in regard to
mere physical suffering, 80 great as is some
times imagined. That some of the indigent
among us die OF scanty food, is undoubtedly
true: but vastly more, in this community, die
from eating too much than from eating too
little; vastly more from excess than starvu-
ton. So, as to clothing, many saiver from
want of defences against the cold; but there
is vastly more suffering among the rich from
absurd and criminal modes Of dress, which
fashion has sanctioned, than among the poor
from deficiency of raiment. Our daughters
are oftener brought to the grave by their rich
attire, than our beggars by their nakedness.
So the poor are often oyerworked; but they
suffer less than many among the rich, who
have no work to do, no interesting object to
fill up life, to satisfy the infinite cravings Of
man for action. According to our present
modes OF education, how many of ouI
daughters are victims Of ennui,--a misery un'
