Rice, "has been emi,'ently toOorable to the south and ever true to the consti- tution, southern Know Nothings now CO., operate with northern fanatics and traitors ir making war. Of all the instances of blind in- gratitude on record, this is the most abominable and the most suicidal. It is an old saying that whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad" When the people of the south take part in these insane assaults of Know Nottingham on the present administration, it will be just conclusion that they are fore doomed to destruction. :.

FACT AND FIcTIoN.-Only thirteen thou sand European immigrants came to this country last month. A year ago, during the same time, there were nearly three times the number.- The commissioners reports show that the whole immigration this year will be less than for many years past, and not ons-haT as large as last year. These are the fects. The fiction
 is the hue and cry raised by the Know Noth- ing prints that we are "overun by constant ly increasing tide of foreigners. Csncinnati Enquirer.

Thascene that followed we will not nj
tempt to describe. An explanation was
made, which we give in brief Captain Grcf
Oh his last voyage, which was made six
year previous to the time our story opens,
.eit his wife with an infant, now the
lovely Jessie, but took his son, bov soi
i've years, with him. On tho passage
oct, his skip was wrecked on the coast
OF France and ali on board except little
Philip perishe2 A vessel bound for New
Orleans picked him up, but he was I'M
able to give any accounl of himself except
his name and age. One of the passenger
offered 10 take charge of the little fellow, and
though hardly able, had adopted him on ar
irving at his home. ...,.-.
When Philip was sixteen his kind protec-
tor died, and left him barely enough to
carry him through college, with strict
economy. Being so long accustomed to the
name OF Walton, Grey, as we must not call
him, did not think Of finding relations in the
the New England States, and almost forgot
that his rame had been other, than the one
he had taken. '..... h. ..,......
Great were the rejoieings in both families,
and Summerson felt how deeply he was in,
debted for al this happiness TO his endeav-
or to conquer himself If hehad not shown
by his altered conduct his good resolution,
Grey would never have noted him, and de
parted for the South to pursue his profession,
losing his chance Of regaining mother and
sister. ....a. s~'gE. ....,.
In few deeting years there was>a double
marriage at the splendid mansion of Mr..
Summerson, which gave another son to Mrs.
Grey, another daughter to himself; and Al.
fred Summerson never regretted that speech
to Jessie, or the year OF. trial, and the noble
selt-conquest that followed.
