even Uncle Toms Cabin, and which will
give chapter on chapter Of plots and Incl

manifold heart-stirring sketches, which will
prove to the world that the gifted author of
Uncle Toms Cabin is too far-seeinp. too
much animated by Christian principles, and
too independent in sentiment and in feeling

"They sayl" Who are they? who are the
the cowled monks, the hooded friars who
glide with shrouded faces in the procession
OF life, mnttering in an unknown tongue
words Of mysterious import? Who are then?

turks in the by-lanes Of society, with dagger
tongues sharpened by invention and enven-
omed by malice, to draw the blood of inno-

Who are they? They are multitude no

THE SHADOWS OF CHILDHooD.-God
bless the little children! We like their
bright eyes, their happy faces, their win.
ming ways, their rosy dreams! Nothing
seems to weigh down their buoyant spirits
long; misfortune may fall to their lot, but
the shadows it casts upon their ile-path are
fleeing as the clouds that come and go in an
April sky. Their future may, perchancc,
appear dark to others, but to their fearless
gaze it looms up brilliant and beautiful as
the walls of fairy palace. There is no
tear which a mothers gentle hand cannot
wipe awhy, no wound that mothers kiss
cannot heal, no anguish which the sweet
murmurimg of her soft, low voice cannot
sooihe. The warm, generous impulses Of
their nature have not been fettered and
cramped by the cold formalities of the world;
they have not yet learned 10 veil a hollow
heart with false smiles or hide the basest
purposes beneath honeyed words. Meth
er are they constantly on the alert to search
out our faults and foibles with Argus eyes;
on the contrary, they exercise that blessed
charity which 'thinketh no evil

REGULARLY SoLD.-Two gentlemen
from New York, one of whom had been in
California nearly a year, and the other just
arrived, were accidentally overheard in the
following conversation at the Suffer House,
Sacramento. The new conner was lament
ing his condition, and his folly in leaving an
abundance at home, and especially two bea-
tiful daughters who were Just budding into
womanhood when he asked the other if he
had family.
Yes, sir, have. have a wife and six
children in New York-and | never saw
one of themh
After this the couple sat few moments
in silence, and then the interrogation again
commenced:
Were you ever blind, STRIP
No, sir
did you marry widow, STRIP
No, SIR
Another lapse of silence.
Did understand you to say, sir, that you
had wife and six children living in New
York, and had never seen one Of them?'
Yes, sr-I so stated it,
Another and longer pause Of silence
Then the interrogation again inquired:
'How can it be SIR, that you never saw
one of them?'
'Why,' was the response, zone Of them was
