CoNcILIATING THE NoRTH.-Senato Hammond
of South Carolina has recently made a speech in
which he recommends the policy of conciliating
the North. His idea seems to be submission to
or cooperation with Douglas. To sustain the in
famous position of this Illinois slave holder, is
thought to be conciliating the north. So just are
southern views of the northern appreciation OF
liberty. Mr.. Hammond is for sustaining the
Union for the present. He thinks it can be made
servicable to slavery a while longer if the north
are suitably conciliated.

destroyed all his hopes of q peaceabl
conclusion to the difficulties. His anx
iety gave him no respitefrom the gloomy
forebodings that clustered around his ex
! istence. Deprived Of his natural rest
his cares had made deep, inroads upoI
his constitution. Day by day he grew
thinner and Paler, his step became NOR
feeble, his eyes sunk deeper into his head
andl nsiSer was written on every Gneamen
of his countenance, ..-.
Unless some respite from his carel
should be found, he forsaw that they would
bring him to the grave. The fear Of dealt
was stronger, if possible, than the love o.
money. But where should he look fol
counsel and sympathy His life had
won him no friends. His nephew, but
yet boy, was Partizan in the strife
His partner was Young. and might not be
worthy of his confidence. But there was
no alternative. .......
Reluctantly, therefore, he disclosed to
Mr.. Waldeck the great secret of his ex-
istence By his aid plan was devised,
which promised to afford ample protec-
ton to The treasure in the hour of in
vasion.
The cellar wall on the street was taken
down, and beneath the sidewalk capa-
cious vault was excavated. This was
stoned up and arched over. The treasure,
the extent of which surprised Mr.. Wal
deck, was removed from various trunks
and drawers in which it had been secreted,
and deposited in the vault. The cellar
wall was then replaced. and the avaricious
goldsmith as he regarded the perfection
Of the contrivance, felt entirely secure for
the first time in many years. All the Ia
Dor of this operation had been performed
by the partners, so that no other person
suspected the existence of the secret vault.
The threat Of Robert Dewrie had star
tied his uncle. Perhaps the young man
had dicovered the secret. The thought
was appalling, and the old man had sta
toned himself as sentinel over It..
Robert Dewrie was an orphan, and
having been left at tender age with a
considerable property, his uncle was ap-
pointed his guardian. His available es-
tate, with that of the goldsmith, was de-
posted in the vault.
When Mr.. Waldeck entered the cellar,
he found his partner examining tine wall,
to ascertain if any effort had been made
to remove the stones.

withdrew to an inner apartment.
The little knot of patriots soon after
withdrew, to discuss the domestic brawl
they had Just witnessed. John Dewrie's
reflections on the scene were far from
agreeable. Remembering the threat to
invade his strong box, the goldsmith
opened a trap-door behind the counter, and
descended to the cellar.

the people were astonished at his stolen

THE GoLDsMITHs' SHOP.

1t was the day after the battle of Lex
lngton. A few excited colonists had
g1h'red in the shop. discussing the par
hcuIars of the ARRAY, the details of which
were slowly spreading through the town.
The affair had startling effect. The
nres OF patriotism, which burned bright
~ IN thousand hearts, were all ready to
burst ont. 1t needed but such an act as
that at Lexington to multiply events for
The page Of the historian.
The group in the goldsmiths' shop
seemed to be of one mind. The vigorous
proceedings Of the COMMITTEES of Safety
were warmly approved. All were eager

ense interest to the discussion. Some
Ofoodlng care seemed to have gathered
over his mind. and closed up the deep
channels Of his heart, for it beat not in
unison with those of the group.
John Dewrie was no patriot. His soul
was too narrow to admit any sentiment

THE CHOLERA AND ITS TRAvELs.-The
Cholera is in London again. Will il
visit this country? Shall we have that
scourge approaching us across the ocean
and, following on the heels of the panic,
precipitating US pell nell into another
dismal abyss of business misfortunes ?
There are croakers enough to say So
There are men who rejoice in these calam-
tiles, because, specializing as they do upon
human misery, such seasons are to them
harvests of profit. They hope to bring
about the evil by producing it. Foolish
idea This country will never again be
subjected to this fearful malady. We are
too we'll prepared for it. TIE sanitary
laws all over the Union are comparative
ly perfect to what they used to be. We
may ''eat, drink and be merry" therefore,
as far as any apprehensions of the cholera
are concerned. We are in no danger

ers in the misfortune but thank heaven
that you belong to a country especially
favored by Providence, and Astounding in
health, as well as Christian institutions,
a tolerably moral people, as the world
goes, and sound opinions.

How TO PREVENT Toe NAILS FROM
GRowING INTO THE FLEsH.-Do not cut
away the offending corner of the nail, as
is done, very short, but cut notch in the
centre. quite down to the quick, and keep
that notch there until the difficulty is
cured, which will sometimes be with the
first cutting. The philosophy of the REM
edy is that the cut breaks the arch, and
naturally changes the curvature Of the nail
and makes the corners turn up instead Of
down.

JoHN DEAN AND HIS MARY ANA
New York correspondent Of the Boston
Gazette writes
You remember the story about John
Dean and his Mary Ann Boxer poor
girl, her romance is converted into a mis-
cradle reality. He, as stated some time
since, is a marker in the Custom House,
and they now occupy the second floor Of
a house over a corner grocery, on Second
and South Third streets, Williamsburg,
surrounded by tumbling down shanties
and beggarly looking tenement houses.
The only sign of refinement in the apart
ment is a piano, which the young lady
continually strums upon to the great an
noyance of her neighbors-for the truth
to say, she is by no means Thalberg.
What a warning this sh6nld be to sus-
ceptibIe young ladies with Irish proclivi-
ties and taste for red hair and the brogue.
Poor girl 1 fear that experience will
prove hard task-master in her case.

COMFORT AND ECONOMY IN SMoKINo.-
Take piece of sponge three-quarters Of

it in water until it becomes distended,
squeeze the water out, and put the stem
of the pipe through the hole until the
bowl comes in contact with the centre Of
the sponge. Charge the pipe and fill the
sponge with cold water then commence
smoking, and it will be found that . sa-

CHAPTER ii.
THE LOAN.

sir. Waldeck, the junior member OF
the firm, was much younger man than
his partner. He was seated at desk in
the back parlor, which connected with
the shop. The desk was covered with
account books and papers, and from the
troubled expression Of the gentleman's
countenance, il was apparent that the
"debit and credit" refused to be balanced
In personal appearance, he was the very
antipode of his partner. While Mr..
Dewrie was the imperSonation of all that
is sordid and misery, Mr. Waldeck was
dressed with the most scrupulous nicely,
in the fashion of the day. He was about
thirty years of age, of easy and affable
manners, and, as the world goes, passably
good looking. But his eye was sinister in
its expression, seeming to project from
its black and piercing depths, the most
unmistakable indications of unworthy
purposes and evil desires:
Occasionally, as he run up column Of
fignres, a muttered curse escaped him
He had closed the book with which he
had been engaged, when Colonel Powell
entered.
"Ah, Wal'leck, I am glad to see you,"
said the officer. as he cordially shook the
hand of the other.
"Mr. Powell then You were not shot
by the rebels yesterday! % replied Wal
deck.
"No we had quite pretty little fight
with them though, after all, we had to
use our heels. But how are the funds to-
day % and Colonel Powell cast an anx-
ious glance at the goldsmith.
"Short, very short, Colonel p and Mr..
Waldeck shook his head.
II want FIVE hundred pounds to-day"
Impossible !"
81 must have it."
81 should be very happy to oblige You.
but the fact is, have not q shilling in
the concern at the present time"
"But you must raise it for me-"
Mr.. Waldeck knit his brow, and SEEM
ed to be struggling with his thoughts
While he reflects, we will make few
necessary explanations.
The firm, both members of which have
been introduced to the reader, was one of
the most distinguished in the town. 1t
had the reputation of being the most
wealthy circumstance which is ex.
planned by the wealth of the senior part
ner, who was the capitalist, while the
other was the man of talent and skill.
waldeck, by superior address, had
crowded himself into the most opulent
and aristocratic families, thus opening
the way for more extensive business, and
increasing the repatation Of his house.
Among others, Waldeck had been
introduced into the family of Colo
mel Powell, an officer of the British
crown. This gentleman was of luxurious
habits, free and easy with his incomes.
As is the case with such persons, his e.
nancial affairs were in an embarrassed
condition. As his circle Of acquaintance
increased, his expenses grew proportion
ally greater, and he was obliged to resort
to the money lenders for assistance. Wal
deck, with masterly penetration, dis
covered the financial difficulties of the
Colonel, and volunteered to supply all
his wants. This he had done on doubt
full securities, up to the time Of our tale,
when his own means were entirely ex-
hausted.
Colonel Powell's demand for the loan
of FIVE hundred pounds. as he had said, it
was impossible to meet. But Waldeek,
