sessed them, marred by the black shadows of
their crime The cloud of shame and remorse,
which rises when any great wrong is wrought,
to hide the pleasant sun away leans far for
ward; and many unshadowed days intervene
between the sin and the drear shade of it.
Hardness of heart and uneasiness of mind,
which are the fruit of vice, spring not up at
once to wretched fruition. The seed, like other
seed, lies hid in the mould of the hearts gar
den, and, springing up duly, is at first nc more
than fragrant blossom-and later, little
germ-and later, bitter crudeling. Long years
ripen it to poison maturity, and other years
years too slow-bring decay and death. IL IS
not true that all the ioays of sin are horny
,cays, and all her uses bitter. 1t is not true,
that all the great treasures of bright names and
white flames, of hearts ease and souls loss, of
charges undscharged, and duties unheeded.
and ties daringiy snapt asunder, that have been
paid down-the exchange, oh most unequal
barter, OF purities for infamies, and of faiths
serenity for integrity, fawed and shattered be-
yond repair, that have been made-heavy
prices wherewith, since the world began, 80
many sweet and noble, aye, and loyal hearts,
have been ready to purchase absoluteness of
affection; it is not true, that all these grave
and heavy prices have been paid down for
naught-trafficked for a fair promise never
fulfilled. Who Of them all, ,cretc]ted, despair
ing, dying, mould go calmly back, resign tie
thrilling purchase, and be forepeymore without
the s,ceet memory Of ii, If so they might eren
hare back again the price they PAID"
What is this, in which passion is addressed,
and the discriminating sense of right and wrong
cast aside, but calling darkness light, and evil
good? 1t is the last injury that can be infict-
ed upon the minds of the young, to paint pic.
lures in which vice is made to wear the fea-
lures of loneliness, and represent the married
in any Of its relations as hateful bond to be
broken at all hazards. Mabel Ware and her
seducer are pictured in this extract as floating
over sea of happiness, glad, even at the cost
of the life of husband, the desertion of family
and country, to drink to the full the cup of pas
sionate and sensual Joy.
Nor is this all. The author, having thus
COMPOUNDED all the teachings of Christ to
the nature of sin and its consequences, then
develops the religious nature of Mabel Ware.
There is much pretty sentiment expressed of
God, seen in his works, and the communion of
Mabers soul with the beautiful. But there is
none of that repentance which "needeth not
to be repented Of" As might be expected, the
author in thus delineatng the naturalistic view
of piety, does not fail to pour out his contempt
on revealed religion, and those forms of wor-
ship in which Christians have sought to give
permanancy to the religion of the Bible. n

For his faithfal services in the Royal army

This, together with his half-pay of a Lieutenant
he lost by entering into the service of the Uni
ted Colonies. He ever disdained to ask for
remuneration for these losses, though he great
ly needed it, " from an unwillingness to give a
seeming mercenary character to services which

PUBLIC MEETING AT THE TABERNACLE.

A call, signed by between two and three
thousand citizens OF this metropolis, has been
issued for public meeting at the Tabernacle
on tomorrow evening, at halfpast seven, of all
opposed to the measures and policy of the
present National Administration, for the ex-
tension of Slavery over Territory embraced
within the compact of the Missouri Compro-
mise, and In favor of repairing the mischiefs
arising from the violation of good faith in its
repeal, and of restoring the action and position
of the Federal Government, on the subject of
Slavery, to the principles of Washington and
Jefferson" for the purpose of hearing the re.
port OF the delegates to the Pittsburgh Con-
vention, and OF taking measures for an organ
lzed expression of their opinions at the next
Presidential election. The list of names, which
occupies no inconsiderable portion of this
sheet, embraces an unusually large proportion
of our prominent citizens for political occa-
sion, and indicates degree Of interest in the
subjects to be considered which we were hardly
prepared for. Nor will the interest of the
questions to be agitated at the meeting consti-
tute Its sole attractions. Several eminent pub
lie men have promised to be present and par
ticipate in its exercises, and among them three
whose voices have never been heard in this
metropolis, which is, however, quite familiar
with their echoes. We refer TO the Hon. Sena
tor Harlan of Iowa, and Messrs. Fessenden of
Maine, and Galloway of Ohio. We are author
lied to state that these gentlemen have dis
tinctly promised to be present, and to speak.
The meeting promises to be a highly inter-
esting one, and we venture to believe that its
effect upon the future politics of the country
will be benefcial.-M T. Zee. Post, april %.

ARRIVAL OF THE EMPIRE CITY.

NeT York, april 29-The steamer Empire
City, from New Orleans on the 10th, and Ha-
vana on the evening of the oath, arrived here
this morning.
The steamer Philadelphia, from Aspinwal,
with California passengers and mails of the
goth of March, had arrived at Havana.
A terrible ARRAY occurred on the 18th inst.
between the American transit passengers and
the natives, in which the former had thirty kill
ed and forty wounded.
The railroad property, and the property Of
individuals residing near the station, was de-
stroyed; and all the baggage in the freight
house was rified.
The passengers upon whom this outrage was
committed were those which left San Francisco
on the 10th March, in the steamer Cortez, for
San Juan del Sur, but landed at Panama in
consequence of the Nicsraguan troubles.
