Every loving word that fell from the lips OF

kind act is recollccted with affection. We look
forward to meeting with unbounded happiness.
Have we parted in angers Time sottens US

in Silence or arrangement This, too, wears
away, and we meet again to forget the past in
future communions. Have we parted in grief
The sorrow is mutually borne, and tenderly con
signed to the corner of our hearts devoted to
the absent sharer.

WASHINGTON INTELLIGENCE.-A few days
since an officer from the Treasury Department,
at Washington, came upon this frontier to look
after the interests ofthe Custom House and Mr..

Falls, Suspension Bridge, &c. He crossed the
bridge and seeing the sign ''Custom House, on
building on the other side, walked pompously
in, demanded to see the books, and put on all
sorts of airs. The subordinate, supposng that
the gentleman was representative OF Her Maj
esty, handed down the books of entries, cOur
teousiy pointing out which were for imports and
which were coastwise revenues. Discovering
that the accounts were kept in sterling curren.

frontier freak, and he would see that it was
Strengthened out when he returned to the De-

for his behavior, but was soon relieved. The
official demanded to know where their imports
were from, when the clerk observed that they

see the point of the joke. This was too much

INCREASE OF Jsws.-An intelligent writer in
the North American Review supposes that no
class of immigrants has increased more rapidly
in this country than the Hebrew. In 1850 q
man might count upon his fingers all the syna-
gogues in the land; now there are at least a
quarter of a million Jews, from eighty TO ninety
synagogues, and multitude of smaller comma
mites where nucleus exists which will soon
grow into synagogue. The city of New York
alone mas twenty synagogues and thirty thous-
and Jews-about one-twentieth part OF the pop
ulation being such. There are syuagogues in
all the chief cities of the seaboard two in Bos-
ton, FIVE in Baltimore, three in New Orleans,
two in Charleston, and four in Cincinnati, &C.
