THE DIFFIDENCE OF LOVE.

THE DIFFIDENCE OF LOVE.
Why should llush to own | love?
lis love that rules the realms above.
Why should | blush to say to all
That virtue holds my heart in thrall!
Why should seek the thickest shade,
Lest loves dear secret be betrayed!
Why the stern brow decotful move,
When ain lansuishing with love?
Is it a weakness thus to dwell
On passion that dare not tell?
Such weakness ] would ever prove:
lis painful, but lis to love!

The Swedish SInYes

A correspondent of the Springfield Republi-
can writes as follows of the stove in use for
long period in Sweden. If his account is
true, it must be invaluable, and some of our
practical men should look out for its general
introduction into this country-where fuel is
becoming so dear, and where the winters
with rare exceptions) grow cold and colder
continually:
81 have fully made up my mind to buy one
of the Swedish stoves, and send it home in
time to be put up for winter. l think it will
prove one of the greatest blessings TO our
country of any thing lately invented or intro
duced there. 1t entire y obviates all the evils
existing so seriously felt by all our northern
people, in our imperfect and expensive mode
of heating houses. it is not more expensive in
its construction than our stoves, and it is
quite an ornament 10 a room, is entirely tree
from dirt and filth iu its use, gives an even genial
heat to any degree that may be desired, entire
ly free from the unpleasant effect of our hot
air system, and is the perfection OF economy
of fuel. SO perfect is it, that for a hundred
and fifty years, there has been no change in
its arrangement, and il has given perfect salts
faction, in a country where they require as
much warmth for their comfort as we do, and
where the cold TO contend with is greater
Where the people are quite as intelligent In
all that pertains to such matters, as We are,
aud il can hardly be supposed, if there was
any advantage TO be obtained, or anything
| moro desired for comfort or convenience or
beauty or economy, that nc changes would
havebeen made in il in so long time. 1t is a
great wonder TO me that some one has not on
| ly tried it in America, but established its use
and manufacture there, for lis construction is
as simple and easy 10 understand as its princi-
pie of heating and ventillating a room are
| beautiful and economsing. Only one 6re a
day Is made in them, and then, only q small
quantity of birch wood is used.
Gee of common size Is capable of heating
q room about thirty feet square, as warm as
you would desire it, even in this cold climate.
| The amount of wood burned In each stove in
their eight months of winter, IL only one cord,
Swedish, which is q little less than cur cords
| or as 40 cubic feet TO l2S. There are several
patterns, some much more beautiful than 9TH
ers; but most OF them are plain round pedes-
tai or column. extending from the floor near
| ly 10 the ceiling, and generally they have 8
plain white China ware; but many that have
seen are of more ornamental forms, with cor
niees and moulding 1t the top, and some OF
them are ornamenIed In oolors, like Chins
ware. The material Of which they are made

are gratifed to be able to state that the letters
received by the last steamer from England are
of the most encouraging character in regard
to business matters generally. Private letters
from authentic sources also mention that the
house of Mr.. George Peabody, which was
compelled to borrow large sum of money
from the Bank of England, had not required
aid TO the extent apprehended, and that it had
only used 100000 of the sum borrowed, ap-
plying even the greater part of that amount to
the relief of other parties. The letters also
states that the present large advance in the
price of cotton is an undoubted evidence OF
the restoration of confidence and the resump-
ton of manufacturing operations; and they
also state that the effects of returning pros
perity will soon be felt on this side of the

Mr.. Editor Of Tie Union and American:
SIR:-As things are, will once more ask you, or
pay YOU, to publish some remarks in your paper, 10
reply some in of the 22d of June last from
some one in Charlotte, and many others like them
from others, about the North-W estern Railroad,
which are very different from what have said and
written with my name to them.
And. it is said that l sm trying to break down
the ilroads; such, my reputation a man of
truth and business, is at stake.
And the county court has filed bill against said
road, and appointed me and others to examine il
and the other three roads in which the county has
stock, aud to report what has been done on each
road; what they have hand; what they are
paying their officers, and when they expect to
pay interest on the county bonds.

For, by the will of God, will try so to act, that
men of sense will think and speak of me as man
of truth and business, and friend to my country,
railroads, and other good improvements; and will
lend my help TO those who do the work TO get
their pay.
Mr. Editor: am opposed to selling county bonds

$4,000 or $4,000 per year. for doing little or
nothing AMI seeing the work-hands leaving the
work Without their pay: will try to have law to
secure their pay az far as the work, materials and
provisions Is worth il. And respectfully invite
all parties, as men Of business, to come up to the
line Of truth, reason and justice; and if they will
give us names and facts that will stand the test,

am not found to be their friend, they may blacken

RENEWING THE SLAVE TRADE.-By private
letter received from Loanga Coast, dated Sep,
TENDER %, 1857, the National Iutelligencer is
advised that the French have practically en-
gagged in the slave trade under the name of
apprentices, and that ship, the Clara, of Bor-
deaux, was at Loango at the date mentioned
above, loading with negroes for Martinique.
A French war steamer lay alongside to pro-
tect her from the English cruisers, who would
have seized her but that she had French ma
val officer on board with orders to the French
Commodore to protect her. The English are
also using negroes as slaves at Sierra Leone.
The French and English Governments are
participating in trade which they affect to
deem so hideous. A bar-acoon has been built
by the French at Loango to be used for the
safe keeping of slaves until they are ready for
shipment. There is no secret in this business,
and no disguise is attempted.
