GosE AsTRAY.-Cold words to fall on n
loving heart-he has gone aslray. And is
this the tmo to desert? This the time to
taunt him with words that roll like lava from
your passion, and scar his soul! No! he his
light now, perhaps he has no other.
Many true heart, that could have come
bac!; like the dove to the ark, aIterits first
transgresson, has been frightened beyond
recall by the angry look or menace, the taunt
the charity of an unforgjving soul. BE care
iu how you freeze the warm emotions of re-.
psntance. Beware least those pleading words,
unhecded, sting you in some shadowy vale
of your future SORROWS. Repentance chang
ed by neglect, unkindness, becomes like mel
ted iron hardened in the monld; triilc with it
never. Be first to meet the errng with out
stretched arms. Wipe the tear from hor
cye-pour the balm of consolation on the
wound that guilt has made. Let your heart
be the grave for his ransgressions, your pity
find vent in bearing his burden, not in use
less words. Oh, forgave the crring! Did
not he who died on Calvary! Shield her
from the contempt Of grosser minds; make
brightness and beauty where all was cold
and storm before in his sad life.

t-Sy- A French woman cleans her gloves,
light boots, ribbons, silks and laces, and ut n
cost of a few cents, and with u surprising
success. They pass for new on any mspec-
ton but the closest, and are worthy to do so.
A French woman never buys lining for new
gown; she cuts up her old gowns and petit
coats instead. She unpcks and stitches up
again, turns, irons and renews, until every
inch of the stuff has served half n dozen
different purposes, and there is not an unworn
thread in the whole garment. A French
woman is always noticeable for her clean
linen-cufis and collars always white and
fresh; but then she works them herself, and
thus procures another large and feminine
luxury, ut small cost. It is the same with
her table linen. Napkins ut breakfast, napkins
at dinner, and fresh table cloths or upper
napkins constantly renewed.

~ The Richmond Dispatch, an indcpen-
dent neutral paper, conducted with marked
ability, thus notices the nomination:
The nomination of Mr.. Fillmore for the
Presidency of the United States, has been
received by his political friends in Virginia,
as far as we can ascertain, with great cnlhu
siasm. 1t is beyond, our province to inter-
NEEDLE in political matters, but MS clronicl RS
of the events of the day, we may be permitted
to say that We never knew nomination to
give more satisfaction to party. The name
OF Fillmore in connection with nomination
for the Presidency seemed to come upon his
friends with the enlivening influence of a
spring day after long winter. We had not
anticipated so speedy n nomination. But Mr..
Fillmore seems to have gone ahead of his
only prominent competitor, Mr.. George Law,
with great ease. All parties agree that it was
the very best nomination the sAmcrcan''
party could have made. Mr.. Fillmore is Il
statesman OF eminent ability and experience,
OF highly conservative character, and, whoever
may be brought out by the Democracy, will
lind in linn iOeman worthy of their steel.
