Never Forget thy Mother

The editor of the Lawrence Courier, refer
ring to the death Of Hon. JOHN DAVIS, re-
marks, that he owed much to the personal
suggestion and advice of the Ex-Governor,
kindly and earnestly bestowed in earlier days,
adds: 1.-THE last counsel we received from
him was characteristic of the man; it was on
the deck of a vessel that lay with loosened
sails and shortened cable, that we, still in boy
hood just commencing years of toll and hard
ship, received parting grasp of his pure
hand with these words God bless youi Re-
member a0hat Pve said; and s0herever you 90,
NEVER FORGET THY MOTHER ? What better
charge could be given to lad launching
forth on 1ife's deceitful tide when the chart
and compass of his young head and heart
must be his only protection from shipwreck.
Many years have passed away, and that good
man has finished the voyage of time; he has
disappeared adown the dark stream Of death,
and, we doubt not, has reached that celestial
heaven, where the storms of earth are never
known, and has exchanged the anchor symbol
which he ever carried at the PROV during life,
for blissful realization

The New York Herald undertakes 10 At
range the Presidential contest Of 1856 for all
the three parties concerned. Ii nominates
Henry A. Wise as the candidate for the De-
mocracy George Law for the Know Moth
ings and William H. Seward for the Free
soilers. It's own candidate Of course is George
Law and it publishes a sketch of his life,
which il commends TO its readers as equal ma
Stvle and manner OF execution to Plutarch's
lives of the great men of ancient times. Ii
occupies about four columns in the Herald,
and we are given to understand that ne other
life of George is to be written until he has
tested his powers Of speed and endurance in
the great race Of SO.
1t presents George as the son Of New
York farmer in God circumstances; and at
the age of eighteen that is, IN 1924, he start
ed out ION his own hook" and found EN-
plovment as hOd-carrier in Troy at 81 per day.
His employer failed Just in the right time to
cheat him out Of all his wages, and he could
not paw his board BILL lie found work else
where, aud earned money enough TO pay the
BILL and walked forty-four miles on foot IN
a day 10 pay il. When twenty years old he
earned twenty shillings per day, and was
/ learning 70 build locks and canals. Went TO
/ Virginia. took the fever aud ague and was
sick Cor some time; lost his wages, and had
bad luck generally, as many another self
made" man has experienced. Nevertheless
by 1880, when he WAS tweniy-four wears old,
he had accumulated $500, and he immedi-
aiely Fought a gold watch Cor $500. Ne was
employed for years on the Pennsylvania pub
lie works.
In 1887 he went to New York to live, and
got contracts on the Croton water works and
the High bridge, which last great work he
completed in l849 Meantime le had been
a director in the Dry Dock bank at New York,
and bad evidently got liberal accommods-
tons The HARLEM aud Mohawk railroads,
too, had had the benefit Of his energy and ex
perience, and he mad made money enough 70
80 into the ocean steamer business just at the
time when the lines were coming money be
, tween New York and San Francisco. Bur
previous 10 that time he had improving his
: leisure hours well in reading his well selected
library; had visited Europe, travelling through
England, France and Italy; and had become
a practical engineer and builder, thorough
business man, and, as the Herald saws, a good
, lawyer besides. He had made large for
i time by his contracts on public works; but his
, steamships have proved his most profitable
u undertaking. How much he is now worth
d his chronicler does Tot inform Us; but he can
> invest half million at any time in any prom
: ising enterprise. In ferries, railroads, ships,
muSkets, city property, and steamer lines he
now has his wealth invested, and is a mil
i lionaire of the first class. He is forty-nine
! years old; hale and hearty; and. profitable as
= all his undertakings usually prove, he is will
t ing TO relinquish them all, and retire for
: four years on the presidency at $4,000 a
1 year.-Piasbargh Post.

AaRIsON ALLOWED New TRIAI.-The
motion for a new trial in the case of WILLIAM
ARRIsoN, says the Cincinnati Commercial, was
decided in the District Court Judge BART
LEY delivered the opinion. The writ of erro.
was prosecuted by defendant to reverse the
judgment of the Criminal Court The grounds
relied on in the record were that the indict-
ment was insufficient; that the Grand Jury was
not properly qualified; that the prisoner was
refused the option of electing to be tried by
the District Court; that the panel of the petit
jury was not legally filled. These assignments
of error were all oyerruled; but motion for a
new trial was granted on the ground that the
Judge of the Criminal Court erred in instruct
ing the jury that if they found the prisoner
guilty as charged in the indictment, "they
should specify that he was guilty of murder
in the first degree" without leaving to them
the discretion to find him guilty of any other
grade of homicide. On this ground the ver-
dict was set aside, and the case remanded to
the Court of Common Pleas of Hamilton coun-
ty for further proceedings.

6FSoms time since we stated, on what
We consider pretty good authority, that the
Old Line, whisky, Locofoco, anti American

city election by illegal voting and other frand-
ulent appliances This the editors of the

Tribune.
As we anticipated the substance of the
communication which appeared in the Jour
nal signed Reritas in relation to our municipal
election, has been transferred to an editorial of
the New Albany Tribune. We have already
branded that communication as a calumny, and
explained the facts by the letter of a party
thoroughly conversant with them.
The Tribune was 80 much chagrined by the
result of our election as to loose temper, and
charged the Democratic party with securing
the victory by vILLAIEoUs FRAUDS. These
two words were put in capitals, if we recol-
iect Alright, by the Tribune, which went on to
say that the Democracy never triumphed ex-
eelt by such means. We, as in duty bound
to our party and to the cause of truth. pro-
nounced the allegations of the Tribune false.
Nothing has occurred to change our opinion.
Its assertions were Incorporate and unjust;
assertions which wisdom ought to have
checked as ebullitions of passion, and talent
ought to have disdained as weapons Of con-
sroversy."
It is true that in tweuty.seven hundred
votes, half dozen Illegal ones have been
detected BY all the power Of espionage and Sc
eret comb.nstioo. But we venture the as
sertion that city election never was held in
which some illegal votes were not cast.

OF The Washington Sentinel, in a recent
number, comments with great severity on
what seems to us very harmless and rather
non- committal article of the Union, on slavery
and the position of the Democratic party
The Union says, in substance, that Northern
and Southern men can never agree on the
moral and political character of slavery, and
cannot be expected to harmonize on that sub
ject. 1t is not necessary that they should it
is enough if they harmonic on the Constitu-
ton The following extract from the article
of the Union is, we think, very good Democ-
racy
The Democratic party bases its claim to
nationality upon the fact that, whilst it recog-
nizes the validity and obligatory character OF
/ the compromises of the Constitution, it denies
to the Federal Government any right to in
terfere with the question of slavery beyond
the instances so specified in the constitutional
compromises The action of the Democrats
in the adoption of the measures of 1850 was
BASEL upon the principle that Congress could
not rightfully intervene as 10 slavery, except
| in the matters expressly enumerated in the
Constitution The act for the organization o.
Kansas and Nebraska was upon the same
principle of constitutional non-interventon
and it is upon this principle alone that any
party can be national, or that the Fedora
| Union can be plrpetuated.

COMMON SCHOOL FUND.-A correspondent
of the american Flag, published at Browns
vile, thus speaks of the efforts of Texas to
instruct her youth, and also the operation Of
the Common School Law at Brownsville
And now, having glanced at the importance
of this potent, republican engine Of progress
in the country, let MS see what our own State
has done in reference to it. let us see whetk-
er Texas has made herself an exception to
the interest everywhere felt and has been
behind her sister States in her provision to
sustain it. What has Texas done to for edu-
cation? Well first, as Republic she made
bestowment of thirty-six miles of land to
each county; in the next instance, she appro-
l,riated oue-tenth of her revenue, by provis-
ion of her State constitution, and at the last
session of her Legislature she appropriated
two millions of dollars more to the purpose
of public instruction. The income of the
fund is to be distributed to the counties, ac-
cording to the amount of population. Pro-
vision was also made for districting the State
and organizing the schools, and nothing re-
remained necessary but for the people to
choose trustees meet and instruct them how
to organize the school, provide house and
draw public money to support the school.
The people of Brownsville saw, some
months ago, that several hundred dollars
awaited their order on the treasury. Accord
ingly they chose and instructed their officers.
and provided house, as the law prescribes,
and little more than two months ago the
school was commenced. The present en-
gagement will end in two weeks more. We
commenced with eight scholars-the number
has increased to forty-nine Several hun
dred dollars yet remain in your treasury at
Austin. This is the epstome of the history
of this enterprise. How the people will d.
rect what they have thus commenced it is
not for me to predict; but in regard to the
future of the enterprise here, am thoroughly
HOPPER | believe that the effort, being
made, will result in permanent school, sup
ported mainlv, perhaps entirely by the State
fund.
