Nor oGosE TO RoMr."-Mr. Bancroft,

Nor "GosE TO RoME."-Mr Bancroft,
the Historian, we learn, instead Of having
gone TO Rome, as the papers announced
few days since, is quietly dwelling at his
residence in Newport, engaged in the COM
position ofhis History Of the American
Revolution, with n, such thought whatev-
or of processing an allegiance of any kind,
whether spiritual or tempoal, TO his Holiness
the Pope. We have understood that when
it was first announced that he was "going
to Rome" as tho phrase is in these days,
som" aspiring young gentleman, thinking it
would afford good opportunity to see the
world without expence, lost no time in ap.
plying to him for the post OF private sccre-
tary.
The stories which are propaga,cd about
man are sometimes both amnsing and in
structive. Up to the time when Mr. Ban
croft delivered his address before the New
York Histori cal Society and avowed him
sell believer, in some respects, OF the
doctrines Of John Calvin, he was exposed
on all points to the batteries of the orthodox
press, and always warmly defended by the
Unitarians. Since that time, however, he
has received numerous high compliments
from his ancient foes on account of the sup
posed improvements in his theology, while
the cold shoulder has been turned towards
him and he has had to take several sides
thrust from Ills former defenders and
friends. Shonld he consider it his duty 10
join the Roman Catholic church, we have
no doubt that he " would be roundly abused
and Inaligncd py the denominational presses
Of all protestant churches. So much are
men judged by the opinions they profess
and the relations they sustain even when
their characters remain unchanged. d.-Prov,

BLESSINGS OF POVERTY. Hear what n
very distinguished writer says on tho sub
ect -
Poverty is the nurse Of manly energy
and IIeaven-climbing thoughts, attended by
love and faith and hope, around whose steps
the mountain breezes blow, and from whose
countenance all the virtues gather strength.
Look around You upon the distinguished
men that in every department oil guard
and control the times, and inquire what was
their origin and what was their early for
tunes. Were they, as general rule, rock
ed and dandlcd in the lap OF wealth No;
such men emerge from the home of decent
competence or struggling poverty. Neces-
sity sharpens their faculties, AMI privation
and sacrifice brace their moral nature. -
They learn the great art of remuneration,
and enjoy the happiness OF having few
wants. They know nothing of indifference
or safety. There is not an idle fibre in
their frames. TheyIput the vigor Of res.
olutc purpose into every act. The edge Of
their minds is always kept sharp. In the
school of life, men like these meet the soft.
ly- nurtured darlings Of prosperity and the
vessel of iron meet, tho vessel of porce-
lin"

III Asyet we have not boon able 10 de-
tect the cowardy and depraved scoundrel
who basely murdered our "little Harry" for
the purpose Of gratifying his malignant
hatred towarards us. We have never known
so much feeling manifested and so much
sympathy expressed, throughout the COM
munity in regard t, what many might con-
slider a trivial circumstance, as has been
done in this case. All who have visited
the Office much for the rast two years
knew "litie Harry" well and loved him
sincerely. We loved him more than words
can exprsss, ana consequently feel his loss
most kecnly, especially when we think Of
the barbarity OF his death. So afectona,e
was his disposition that We have no doubt
bnt that at the very moment when the
scoundrcl was adjusting the cord around
his neck, the little fellow was playfully
licking his hands. We are very anxious
to obtain information in regard to the vii.
liam who concoctcd the scheme and the
one who carried il into execution if we
can obtain this information they shall bit
terly pay the penalty which is their just
due.

A quaker gentleman from Penn-ylvani

A quaker gentleman from Pennsylvania
recently visited relation in one Of our
lower counties who had hundred slaves
on his farm, all of whom had been raised in
the family. The Pennsylvania took sever
al occasions to lecture the Marylandcr on
sinfulness Of holding slaves, and urged him
to manumit them. Th, Marylander finally
proposed to his relative to give him securi.
iy that he would take as good care of them
as he did. Of the hundred slaves, he re-
marked, there are thirty too old to take
care Of themselves, and of course he could
not tree them; then there are thirty 9th.
ers too young to be given their freedom
the other forty he kept to earn sufficient to
support those that are too young and too
old to work. The Pennsylvania declined
this liberal offer, and bis relative closed the
conversation by remarking: "Now, my
friend, if you and your Northern sympa-
thlscrs with our slaves would only follow
Henry Clay's advice TO mind your own
business, and leave US alone with our
slaves, you would do them more service
than their masters ; for the iacI is, my hogs
eat up my corn and my slaves eat up my

Now, here is fact, and a question All
the New England States, except New

had them during the past year; what has
become Of all the spirits imported into Bos-
ton during Lat time ? The quantity i'm
ported was greater than during any former
year The importations at that port for
two weeks ending June 9th were, in ship
from Rotterdam 500 pipes of gin, IN ship
rom London 200 casks Of porter nd ale,
and in brig from Fayal 800 casks of wine!
What becomes Of all this liquor? Somebody
drinks it, and the great bulk OF the trade
Of Boston is with the New England States
