Husbsn and Father Turned up after Thirty
Years Absence

We heard the particulars yesterday of one of
those strange episodes in ife in which the old ad.
age of truth is stranger than fiction, was fully
illustrated. About six years since, u lady named
Mrs. Martha Wood, accompanied by her son and
his wife, and couple Of children arrived in this
city from New Bedford, Mass She stated that
she was widow of twenty -four years standing,
her husband having been mate of whnler,
which had been lost at sea. The family have rc
sided the greater part Of the time in Liberty
street, Mr.. Wood, the son, working at his trade,
which is that of cooper. r.t.HE .saE
Yesterday morning gray-headed and toll
worn man called at the residence Of the family,
and seeing Mr.. Wood, inquired for the widow,
who, being called into the room, while gazing in
tently at the stranger, whose eyes we're fixed
mournfully upon her. requested to know his busi-
ness. '.s, $50. .-..E e.f rir Haa
DO you not know me, Martial! said he and as
the sound of his voice. like the sound Of an olden
memory, met her ear, she gave vent to all hysser-
ical cry, and tainted in the arms that were open
ed to receive her. r.. b.. ...s. ...
The tale is soon tod the ship in which he had
made his last voyage from New Bedford, was cnst
away in the South Sea Islands, and he was one Of
the few who escaped watery grave. After en-
during almost unheard of privations, he succeed
ed after thirty years absence in reaching his ma
tive city. From brother Of his wife, he learned
their present location, and arrived here to find
her whom he left young and blooming bride,
far advanced in the evening Of life, while the in
fant, when last he saw him, he had imprinted up
on his lips a fathers kiss, and who then could
scarcely lisp his name, was now stalwart man,
and the head Of a family. How many hopes and
fears must have agitated the old mariner as he
again set foot after his long pilgrimage, upon his
native land-Cincinnati Enquirer

But the same old bricks are In the wall--the bell

The Galena Advertiser seconds the nonna-
ton of Hon. Edward Bates of Missouri for the
Presidency. This Mr. Bates is man Of whom
We know but little and shall; therefore say but
little We are not prepared to canvass his
claims, or qualifications for the important office.
But one thing is entirely conclusive to our
mind The Missouri Republican, tie only paper
even in Missouri having any claim to respecta-
bility or standing, which has justified Atchison,
Stringfeilow 4 Co., in their conquest Of Kansas,
was the first to propose the name Of Mr.. Bates
for the Presidency. II he is acceptible to the
organ Of the Missouri cut threats he cannot be
to us. If there is that about him congeniel with
the sentiments and feelings of the Republican he
is not the man for US.

his doubiy precious cargo Of hay and calico
The hay trcmbied with pnre cctasy, and all went
merry until they reached the large mud
pond which covers the road for about fifty

the girls and hay together in the mud and

The Administration view Of Re.der,. Election

The Administration view Of Rssder's Election.
Our readers have, doubtless some curiosity
concerning the course which the administration
at Washington will take in regard to the late
election of a delegate in Kansas. The Washing
ton Union has given sufficiently clear intima-
ton Of what it will be.
There are two persons claiming the seat Of
delegate from Kansas-W hitfeld, the candidate
Of those who are for establishing slavery Ia the
territory, and Reeder, the candidate of those
who desire to make Kansas free State. Whit
field has on his side the forms Of an election.
Reeder the Substance. Whitfield was appointed
by the Missourians, at an election held under an
ordinance Of the mock legislature assembled at
the Shawnee Mission Reedcr was chosen BY
the people Of Kansas ut an election instituted
by themselves. Whitfield is pet of Shannon,
sent out by Mr.. Pierce to govern Kansas. Shan
non recognised the spurious legislature and all
its ordinances, attended the election held under
them, voted for Whitfield and TO crown the farce,
gave him formal certificate that he had been
duly chosen as delegate to represent the terrific
ry. The administration, Of course. is prepared
to second the doings of its creature, Shannon,
and accordingly its organ, the Washington Union,
presents an argument in favor of the admission
of Whitfield, and against the admission of Reed

sary either to remain silent on the subject of the
ruffianism of certain men of Missouri, or should
attempt to palliate it. ~
