WEALTH AND PovERrY.-We are ac-
quainted with two meu, residents of this
city, who are fair types of human nature
in general. The one has been blessed
with all that wealth can bestow; lives in
luxury, takes his case ''in his inn, rides
in coaches, and in word "cuts grand
flourish" in this little world of ours. He
is fond of contributing large sums to pub
lie enterprises, particularly when his name
is likely to appear in the papersin connec-
ton therewith-boasts of his public spirit
and liberality and is punctual in his attend
ance at church on each Sunday. But
,withal, he is proud, vain, naughty and inn
perious. He looks upon those less favor.
ed by fortune, and beneath himin social
life, as unworthy of his attention. He has
not grain of charity in his soul. He
would pass by a poor man, in suffering,
without deigning to look upon him. lie
never contributed, perhaps in all his life.
a dime to relieve the distresses of the weak
and the suffering. Humble wan, the wall
oil the sons ana daughters Oh adversely nave
no claims upon him. He walks by them
with a pompous step and unteeling
heart
The other character is just the reverse
of this both in condition and heart. Poor
from childhood, he has never known the
moment when he was free from want. =
His means have been small, his wants nu.
merous. Yet in poverty and in gloom, he
has endeavored to do what little he could
to relieve the miseries of his fellow suffer-
ers. Toiling necessarily for small wages,
he has often divided the rewards Of his la
ebor with some poor needy widow. He has
a soul--a soul full of charity, of love and
truth. His heart is as broad as the wants
ofhumanity itself. This man is neglected,
unnoticed, uncared for; while the other is
the object Of adulation and eulogy. How
unequal, how unjust are the rewards of thii
world! But with all this, we would rath
or be that poor, neglected man, with hi
broad, expansive, gushing heart than the
naughty aristocrat with all his wealth sta
ton and power.--Cin. OAron.
