An Affecting Scene.

Theeditor of the Cayuga Chief
(Auburn, n. Z writes to his paper
/ from the West, as follows: r
"A young, gell-dressed, gentle.
manly appearing man, with a lovely
wife and child, had journeyed on the
train with US from Buffalo. At,
in spite of his wife, he would leave
the depot as he said, on business. =
From the wife's manner, we readily
guessed what she thought bis bust
ness was. For a long hour she stood
with her boy in her arms awaiting
his return-the tears, in spite Of all
her efforts, silently dropping upon
the cheek of her sleeping child
He came, just as the train started,
drunk. He lurched towards the
platform, fell upon the rail, and his
head was severed from his body
Never in our life shall We forget the
of the wife's countenance,
IS she stood moment-her features
pale and ghastly-and then fell
'enseless upon the CORY and smo-
1ing form Of her husband. The vail
# the fatherless boy touched every
leart, for not one who looked upon
he scene could refrain from weeping. /
"We looked upon that woman as
ne was taken like a dead one from
he headless corpse, her heavy head
lotted with the blood that had just
cited from the pulseless heart, and
elt fresh hatred against a damnable
uSiness and all its apologists and
bettors. "

Retort Courteous.

Tom Cor#in, while a member o.
the General Assembly of the State oI
Ohio, brought in a bill for the aboli-
ton Of public punishment at the
|whipping-post. He made a speech
thereon, to which an elderly member
replied somewhat. as follows: "DIr.
Speaker the gentleman is not as old
as lam, and has never seen so much
of the practical operation of the sys-
tenn of punishment which he desires
to abolish. When lived In Connec-
ticut if a fellow stole a horse, or cut
up any other rustics, we used to tie
him right up and give him a real good
thrashing. And he always cleared
right out, and we never saw any more
of him. It's the best way of getting
rid of rogues that ever was tried, and
without expense to the State" fa
Corwin rose in reply: "Afr. Speak
er, | have been often puzzled to ac-
count for the vast emigration from
Connecticut to the West, but the good
man last up has explained it to my
entire satisfaction The bill passed
without further discussion.

Turkeys greatest Statesman a Slave

We extract the following interest
ling account of one of = Turkey
Statesmen, from 4 letter in the Bos
ton Post, received by the last steam
Ter: -. =
"Turkey has lost the strongest o
her old statesmen, during the present
month, Khosref Pasha. He was 81
years old, and had been a prominent
man in the councils of the Porte
lever since the days Of Catharine oi
Russia. As he was the Oldest, so he
was. the richest of the nobility OF
| Turkey. His history is as thor
oughly Turkish, as we're his honors
and habiliments. When George
Washington was surveying lands on
the branches Of the Ohio, and Seth
Pomeroy was boring out the spiked
cannon on the forts of Louisburg,
Khosref was a lame and deformed
orphan, in the mountains of the Cau-
casus, obtaining precarious exist
ence by little services among the
cottagers. Before the British red coats
had marched back to Boston from
Lexington Common, to the tune of
Yankee Doodle, the humpback beggar
boy had stood as slave in the SIAM
boul slave market, had been INSTALL
ed as servant into the palace Of
Abdul Hamed, and had found his way
to the favor of young Mahmoud,.
heir to the throne. In the country |.
and the position, where the passport
to. success is a fine figure and en-
gagiug manners, young Khosref, des-
titute of both, possessed some faeul-
ty of gaining and retaining good Will
which enabled him to conquer nature.
When Mahmoud succeeded to the |
throne the fortune Of the orphan 7
BOY rose, and being shortly after f
Yards made secretary to Capudan a
oasha, be laid the foundation of his t
enormous wealth. He has outlived t
II his friends and all his foes, but his t;
never left him. Like 81
Talleyrand, he has been ready to ac' d
uiesce in every change, and has gen. e
rally succeeded in obtaining some ei
hing from every revolution. But q
9 was always slave. From the IL
srvitude of the imperial house, there p'
no manumission. Though he Sc
'aves nearly $4,000, 700 sterling y
money, every farthing oft goes to Sc
le present Sultan" - pl

How MANY LETTERS WE WRErE.-
The April number of the New York
Quarterly Review has an article on
"Post Office improvements" in
which it is stated that the Boston
people annually average about thir-
ty-three letters each; those in New
York about twenty-four each; in
Philadelphia, fourteen; in New Orleans,
about sixteen, and in Baltimore, ten.
In the aggregate of the large cities
Oh the United States there is an an
nual average of about twenty letters
to each person. In the country dis
triets there are only aboutthree letters
annually to each person. -l srt

Be NOT DECEIyED.-Fron our eX-
changes, we see know nothing plat
forms are acquiring as many shapes
and colors as the hats worn by the
dandies. This is done to deceive the
people. But we all know the creed
that appeared in the papers of Tennes-
see that were first, to raise the dark,
piratical banner of Buntlinism. We
all know, too, the positions publicly
taken by Col. Gentry on the subject
of naturalization, and the prescription
of Roman Catholics, The new plat
forms, recently put forth, are without
authenticity, being endorsed by just
nobody.
The whole thing bears evidence on
its face Of an intended fraud upon the
people, and viii but render more
certain and increase the weight of In
dignation, which will in August next
turn all these platforms into 1aat- forms,

SETTING a FAsnloN.-Whep the
Queen of England was on tie CIyde.
q lew years since, finding her face
visited too roughly by the airof the
Scottish bills, she tied her veil under
her chin, The action was natural.
and the effect, no doubt, under the
circumstances, was becoming. Tie
royal cheeks, warm with health, flush
ed with womanly and queenly feel
ing, and famed by the welcoming
breezes of the North, looked almost
as beautiful, we dare say, as moss
rose. However that may be, before
the day was out, there we're hundreds
and thousands of other cheeks In
the same predicament; the rage of
limitation spread. IN the shadiess
walks, in the closest streets of the
toWn-in the ealmest and hottest
days of the season-nothing was to
be seen but the veil tied under the
chin. ~

The Shepherdess.


Sat we on the messy rocks,
: In the twilight, long ago, r.
I and Ulna keeping focks- o
. Flocks and aeeces white as snow.
Beauty smiled along the sky,
Beauty smiled along the seass' -
"Ulna, Ulna," whispered I, >7y
"This is all for you and me-"
Brushing back my heavy locks,
Said he, not, alas! in glee,
"Are content in keeping focks, .s
With shepherd boy like me9'
Shone the moon SO softly white,
Down among the messy rocks,
Covering sweetly with her light,
Me and Ulna, and our focks. ~
Running wild about feet
Were the clustering summer flowers,
Ulna, said, "what is sweet,
In this world that is not ours?''
Thrice he kissed my cheek and sighed,
aThese are dreary rocks and cold,
Oh, the world is very wide, -a.
!. And I weary of my fold!p
Now thousand oxen stray 80
That are Ulnas down the moor,
And great ships their anchors weigh,
That are freighted with hisore,' q
But my tears viii sometimes flow,
Thinking Of the messy rocks,
Where we sat long, long ago, ~.
/ and UIna keeping hoeks. .- ~
