The way they get Rich out West.

The Newburyport Herald relates the ex-
perience of friend, just returned from the
West. He says:
"Here is the whole story. We complain
of hard times, and go West TO better our con-
dition. IL we would live in q log or mud
house with one room and no floor, sleep OH
straw, 90 barefooted, wear the cheapest and
coarsest clothes, and deprive ourselves of
all the comforts OF life, anybody might squat
upon two acres of common pasture, and with
the same labor, be as rich in seven years as
upon any half section OF land 10 Kansas !;
and if there were hundreds thus squatting,
they could get up land lever, speculate in
lots, and have the prices go up as they do in
the West
What peop'e save in the new States, they
crush out of themselves, and that they do
anywhere. All the advantages they have,
is the privilege OF living as mean, and hav-
ing their children as mean as human nature
will bear, with nobody 10 find fault with il;
while here, living in the same manner, they
would separate from the masses, as much
as the gypsies do. Ifany Of our people wish
to learn practically about this matter, let
them take a view of the basket makers who
drive into market from New Hampshire,
and then go home and live with them a
month in the back part of Darlington, and
they will be saved the trouble OF going TO
Kansas . '"

THE HOME ANGEL.

She dweii apart from early youth,
In gentle household ways;
Conteoted with her mothers smile,
And with her fathers praise.
Hers was "ihe grace oil quiet born,"
or fancies gay and pure;
Of trusting love that could obey,
And strength that could endure.
Beauty from simplest actions rose,
And harmony from stfife; go
So did her kindly spirit fuse
The elements Of lille.
Hers was the hand that freely gave,
The ready smile or Sigh,
The cheek that true 10 feeling flushed,
The bright and upward eye.
A stranger came, he look'd and loved,
He whiepefed at her side;
There fell a shadow on her home
The dsy he claim'd bis bride.
And we'll she kept her VOWS, she turn'i
The prose oflife TO song;
But all 10 high that strain Tor eanh--
And il was hushed ere long.
She died, sre love was fully told,
AS dies flower in Spring;
Earth never lost, nor heaven gained
A fairer, sweeier Thing.
Ay, hundreds like her live and die,
ln England's household bowers;
And blessed are The hearts that feel
"Such angels YET are ours"

An Adieu,-..T Lady In her Hoops.


She star is divine from its distance,
And, gazing at you from afar,
Pve atheory about pour existence
Extremely like that Of the star.
Whateverthe orbit they enter,
Astronomers hold il as sound,
That each star itself is The centre
OF system without any bound.
Your ways like the course OF comet,
Requiring very vide birth,
And whaiever's therein must fly from it,
Ii il b 10 the end of the earth.
; To wonder is certainly human,
And the only conclusion is this:
That In such whole world OF woman
There is something more than a-miss.
My fears have leHt wings TO affection;
And so terribly great are your charms,
have said on the fullest reflection,
You can never return TO my arms.
Love. at best, is hazardous venture,
And 'twere folly 10 follow, a day,
An angel who never can enter
The straight and the narrow way.
So, accept the farewell Of lover:
His heart may be yours till he dies,
But his little attentions are over, size.
Aud he lrembles at one Of your sighs
Yet lei me not call you cold hearted,
For know your whole nature is warm
And The process by which We are parted,
Is purely matter Of form.

HONE WITHOUT A MOTHER.

What is home without mother?
What are all the Joys we meet,
When her loving smile no longer
Grests the coming OF our feet?
The days seem long, the nights are droary
Aud lime rolls slowly on;
Aud o, how fsw are 'chhdhood's pleasures
When her gentle care is gone.
Things weprize are first 10 vanish;
--f Hearts wc1tNsc TO ?ass qway: -
Aud how soon even in out childhood,
We behold her turning grey.
He eye grows dim, her step is slow,
Her Joys Of earth are past,
And before we learn 10 know her,
She has brealhed on earth her last.
Olhef hearts may have their sorrows,
Grieis iha! quickly die away;
Bat mother lost in childhood
Grieves the heart from day 10 day.
We miss her kind and willing hand,
Her fond an eurnest care;
And D, how drear is life around IA,
What's home without mother ibcre7

he wanted, as well as the assistance of an
intelligent Irish girl, named Mary Ragan,
who was to act as nurse to the fictitious
widow. A physician was also engaged to
lie in bed with night cap on, and do the
groanng for the "widow.n This party ar
rived at 1870 Elm street just in season.
Officer VIM. B. Walsh, Of the Quarter Ses-
sions, was posted in the street opposite, and
Inspectors Speight and Dilkes in Bond street.
The physician who was TO personate the
"widow," assisted Dr. Montagnie in certain
operations necessary to-give the child the
| appearance of newborn babe, and then
went to bed. Some private marks were al
SO made upon the child's head, with nitrate
| of silver. A messenger was sent to 81 Bond
street.
Shortly after4 capt. Speight saw Mrs. Cum
ningham leave her home; followed her into
a Fourth Avenue car, where she was recog-
nized by the conductor and some passen-
gers, who spoke 10 Capt. Speight about her.
She was disguised in quasi nuns dress
The Captain followed her TO Elm street,
until she disappeared in the lager beer sa.
loon. He then returned 10 his post In a
few moments DR.. Uhl came out and asked
the officers opposite whether they had seen
the woman leave the house. She had pass
ed out so quietly that they had failed 10 per-
ceive her.
The officers next repaired TO No. 81 Bond
street, where they learned that Mrs. Cum
ningham had gone out, but had not returned,
and thai a man with white hat had gone
in. (This was DR.. Cutler, of Brooklyn, who
was assisting Mrs. c. in good faith.]
DR.. Montagnie ut once went to the corner
of the Bowery and Bond street, where he
met Mrs. Cunningham, in the nuns dress,
with large basket in her hands, in which
he had placed the baby. She went into her
house.
II had been arranged between her and DIR.
Uhl that she should send in urgent haste 10
his house. Accordingly he had appeared
and went.
He soon came ont and walked down the
street. The officers then went up, by the
District Attorneys directions, rung the bell,
and entered. The were met by two women
at the door, who informed them that Mrs.
Cunningham was very sick and could not
be seen. They found her in bed with the
baby by her side--one of the ''nursesn Civ
ing her warm drink, from dish over lamp,
from time TO time.
DR.. Montagnie asked if that was DR.. Bur-
dell's baby. Mrs. Cunningham replied,
s:cerainly, whose else could it bep' The

She was apparently under The influence of
opium, in orderto create artificial paleness,
One of the nurses was taken 10 the station
house, and the other remained al 81 Bond
street with Mrs. Cunningham in charge of
the officers.
To-day afidavits were submitted before
Justice Flandreau, and warrants were is-
sued for the arrest of Mrs. Cunningham, her
nurses, DR.. Cutler and others.

OFFICIAL CORRESPONDENCE.

JUDGE wILMoT TO GEN. PACKER.
Toicanda, July IA, 1857.
Hon. VIM. F. PACKER,
Dear Sw:-I propose to spend some time
during the Summer and Fall, in canvassing
before the people OF the State, the princi-
Piles and issues involved in the pending State
election.
Party meetings bring out only that portion
of the people 10 whom the call is made, and
the addresses are necessarily all on one side;
whereas it is desirable that the whole peo-
pie, so far as may be, should hear both sides
fairly presented before them at the same
time.
If it should meet your views, propose
that we canvass SC. much of the Stale as is
practicable, in company, addressing alter
natelythe same meetings. Should this meet
your assent, please SO inform me at your
earliest convenience, so that we may ar
range the times and places of meetings, Or
der Of speaking, &c., sc.
Very respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
d. WILMOT.

Dear SRI have received the enclosed
letter from one of the opposing candidates
for the Gubernatorial office, and inasmuch
as it proposes plan for the conduct of

cess of other candidates, besides myself is

my duty to submit the communication to
the judgment of the State Committee rep
resenting the Democratic party. If it is
thought TO be proper mode of conducting
the canvass, shall cheerfully accede to the
proposition.
Respectfully yonrs,

EXCESSIVE DRESS.

The consideration of dress as a mirror in
which il may be said 10 reflect the moral
condition of the individual or the communi.
iy, has never had much serious considera-
lion. More than two-thirds Of our race are
like floating corks, The blind creatures of all
conflicting social curreEis, with little or no
consciousness of action as il should be regu-
lated by moral principle. A plelhoric influx
Of money, from commercial and other pur-
snils, is sure 10 breed iherankest kind Of
luxury, which carries with il vicious pro.
pensily 10 excessive dressing, anc this as
sunes so many morbid variations, as not
only to insult art, TO parody nature, bu, even

woman which has been spiritually purchased
for her by the religious growth Of ages. Out

concession TO the carnal ties Of the time,

atmosphere by immodestly srobbing their
persons of thai chasie and becoming dfapery,
which is as ennoblihg 10 the wearer as i, is
beneficial 10 The beholder. The person Of
every woman has moral dignity. religious
import, which can only be indicated and
maintained by being becomingly and mod.
eslly alfred. Whether in The street or The
boudoir this solemn truth should not be for.
