they have Struggled man'uly for the time they have

II is matter Of much regret that an actor Of the

have consented TO interest himself in this enterprise.
To meet the requ ements Of the Chambers.sreet au-

part utterly without merit, In which Mr. Davenport
WAS required to perform parts unworthy his talents,
and far beneath his dignity ss an eminent actor. The
specu alton has proved Improbable, and he has lost
money, while he has certainly gained no fame,
although single missiep, however serious, could de-
tact little from his welesned reputation. The pub

Whoever, whether actor manager, is respsnsIble

Rascality Astounding.

Under this caption Parson Bfownlow,
of the Knoxville Whig launches forth
terrible philippe against all the world
and the rest of mankind, Hear him
1.-The Gospel is preached to the people
regularly, all over our country-religious
papers and magazines are circulated in
oura families, and many valuable per-
sons Sc. good examples before the world;
but notwithstanding all this, and more,
observation teaches US thai rascality a.
bounds in all classes Of society. Petty
thells are daily commitled--such as rob.
bing money drawers, stealing clothes and
drygoods, chickens, ducks, corn and other
eatables. Snolling vagabonds, dealing in
counterfeit money and diseased horses,
are all over the country. Gamblers,
travelling and local, and resident rogues,
are on tho alert. Pious Williams. with
faces as sancti6ed as the moral law, are
keeping false accounts, and swearing 10
them for the sake ofgain. Whisky shops
are selling by the small, in violation ol
the law. Drug slores are training ur
drupkards in high life, and afFording "a,
cililv for Sabbath drinking, which can. bl
had nowhere else. Their rich are oppres
sing the poor. and the poor are content tt
live in rags and idlnsss. Country deal
ers in produce come to town and exac
two prices for all they have to sell, ant

double rates, 10 the injury fthe business

and the growth Of the town. Banks and
corporations, intended fot the public good,
have their favoriLes. and are partial in the
distribution of favor. Families perse-
cute and envy each other. individuals
SANDER their belters. Persons of low
origin put on airs, and falsely pretend to
be more than they are. Cheating and
misrepresentation are the older of the
day generally. In politics there is very
little patriotism o: love Of country, while
demagogues seek 10 mislead and build up
their own fortunes at the hazard of ruin
ing the country. In religion there is
more hypocrisy than grace, and the big
gest scoundrels living, crowd into the
church, with a view to hide their rascally
designs and more ef1ectually to serve the
Devil In a word, rascality abounds a.
mong all classes, and in all countries
The devil is stalking abroad in open day
light, without the precaution to undress
himself ! and if the present generation Of
men could see themselves in the Gospel
Glass, they are as black as hell

too earthly. to hold them fast in their en-
tire purity andclearness. There is sumeS
thing ever within US that strives against
them and from without, the want Of
love-the injustice and hatred of other
men-ever anew and awaken selfish i'm

our heart the remains Of selfish fear and

We give also an extract from sermon
by the celebrated Mr.. Spurgeon oI Lon
don. 1t is characteristic of his general
style and manner Mr.. s. is one OF the
most remarkable pulpit orators Of the
age. m aail
Night is the season Of terror and alarm
to most men. Have you never stood by
the seaside at night and heard the peb-
bles sing
Or have you never risen from
your couch, and thrown up the window
of your chamber and there: Listened 10
what Silence. save now and then
murmuring sound, which seems sweet mu-
sic then. And have you not fancied that
you heard the hap Of God playing in
heaven ? Did you not conceive that yon
stars, that those eyes of God, looking
down on yeu, were also mouths of song
that every star was singing Gods
glory as it shone! We need not much
poetry in Our spirit to catch the song Of
night, and hear the spheres aa they chant
praises, which are loud to The heart,
though they may be silent to the ear.
Many songs we hear our fellow crea-
lures singing in the streets will not do
to sing by and by; ! guess they will sing .
different kind Of tune soon. They can
sing now days any rolIicking drinking
songs, but they will not sing them when
they come 10 die; they are not exactly
the songs with which TO cross Jordan's
pillows. 1t will not do to enter heaven
singing one of those unchaste, unholy
sonnets. No, but the Christian will not
have to leave off his song he may keep
!, on singing it forever" Y.fH.tea

A CHEERFUL HEART.-I once heard a
young lady say 10 an individual your
counlenance 20 me is like the shining
sun, for it always gladdens me with a
cheerful talk A merry or cheerful
countenance was one Of the things which
Jeremy Taylor said his enemies and per-
secutors could not take away from him.
There was some persons who spend their
lives in this world as they would spend
their time shut up in a dungeon. Every.
thing is made gloomy and forbidding. =
They 60 mourning and complaining from
day to day, that they have so little, and
are constantly anxious lest what little
they have, should escape out Of their
hands. They look always upon the dark
side, and can never enjoy the good that is
to come. This is not religion. Religion
makes the heart cheerful, and when its
large and benevolent principles are exer-
cised, men will be happy in spite Of
themselves. h't veg
The industrious bee does not stop tc
complain that there are SO many poison
Gus flowers and thorny branches in his
road, but buzzes on selecting the honey
where he can find it, and passing quick
ly by the places wherelt is not. Fher'
is enough in this world to complain abou
and find fault with, if men have the dis
position. We often travel on hard an,
uneven road, but with a cheerful spiri
and heart to praise God for his mercies
we may walk thereon with great comfor
and come TO the end Of our journey il
peace. W g.S 20

The TROUBLESOME NEIeHBoR. "A few
years ago, poor mechanic, Of very
quarrelsome disposition, settled near
Christian farmer, whose friends express
ed to him their sympathy in the annoyance
he was likely to receive.
"Never mind" said The old man ~
have never yet quarrelled with neighbor
and | am too old to begin now"
Six months passed, and then began q
series Of petty annoyances, which the far
mer bore uncomplainingly but this only
irrita,ed his neighbor the more; until
meeting the farmer one day, in the height
Of passion he poured upon him torrent
OF insult and abuse. :t 4s&.
"Frienl," said the old farmer gently,
emo man under the influence Of passion
can reason clearly; come to me calmly,
and we will discuss your grievances -
The angry mar raised his clenched hand
to strike him but was restrained by some
unseen influence, and both went their
way.
About week after the mechanic was
passing the farmers house with load Of
grain. 1t was at the foot Of hill, and
the load was heavy. He coaxed threat-
ened, and beat bis oxen, but all to no pur-
pose. He must leave his load or ask aid
Of the man he injured. Presently he saw
the farmer unhitch his oxeh from load
of hay and come toward him. With,
kindly words the farmer plofered his as
sistance drew him safely to the summit,
and without waiting for thanks departed
as he came. Here is a simple act, but
mighty its influence. The mechanic was
humble. acknowledged the purity and
power, Of that religion could bear and
forbear,' and has since that time never
willingly provoked his friend. .iel Gg

A Sad Wedding.

After publishing the marriage Of Mr..
Adam Tate, of Chicago, to Miss Jennere
Pettigrew, late of Scotland, the Chicago
Tribune adds
There is bit of romance, sad enough
in its character, connected with this an
nouncement, which the parties will for
give us fol elating: Six young Scotch
men of this city, worthy men all, who
had left their plighted faith and lasses be-
hind them when they sought consentment
and fortune on our shores, united for the
purpose of sending for those to whom
their troth was plighled. They were TO,
and did come out together For mutual
protection and society, they took passage
in the same vessel. The periIous ocean
voyage was made without accident, and
the party-a merry and happy party
arrived safely 10 Quebec. where they
took passage on the Montreal. Our rea-
ders know, and have lamented the fate
that overlook that ill-fated steamer, and
her hundreds Of passengers. When she
burned. Of the six trusting and generous
girls, Miss Pettegrew was the only one
saved. Her FIVE companions found either
frey or walery graves.-Miss P. was res
cued, she knows not how or by whom
Taken up for drowned, the struggle be-
tween life and death was long and doubt
full but at last decided in favor of the for
mer. The kind hearted at Montreal
learned her history, and admired her
modest worth. By them, for she had
los. everything but herself, her immedi.
ate necessities were supplied, and in a
few days with their blessings and prayers,
she continued her journey hither. A few
of the five young men, who beside the
now happy husband, had precious freight
on that steamer, attended the wedding or
Tuesday last. How sad that festive
gathering was-how the shadow Of the
fearful past dimmed the brightness of the
present, who that has not felt the des
troyer's touch, can tell
