A Touching Anccdnfe

Hon. A. II. Stephens, of Georgia, in a
recent address at a meeting in Alexandria,
for the benefit of the orphan asylum ami
free schools of that city, related the follow
ing anecdote
"A poor little boy, in a cold night in
June, with no home nor roof to shelter
his head, no parental or maternal guar
dian or guide to protect or direct him on
his way, reached at nightfall the house Of
a rich planter, who took him in, fed,
lodged, and sent him on his way with
his blessing. These kind attentions
cheered his heart, and inspired him with
fresh courage to battle with the obstacles
of life. Years rolled round; Providence
led him on; he had reached the legal
profession; his host had died the cor
niorants that prey on the substance Of
man had formed conspiracy to get from
the widow her estates. She sent for the
nearest counsel to commit her cause to
him, and that counsel proved to be the
orphan boy years before welcomed and
entertained by her deceased husband -
The stimulus of warm and tenacious
gratitude was now added to the ordinary
motives connected with the profession
He undertook her cause with a will moi
easily to be resisted he gained it the
widows estates were secured to her in
perpctuity and, Mr.. Stephens added,
with au emphasis Of emotion that sent its
electric thrill throughout the house, 'that
orphan boy stands before you!"

The Politicians and Old Brown.
[From the New York Doy Book. !


1t is sad and lamentablc fact that
mere politicians Of all parties arc ready
to speculate in murder, crime yillany, or
what not, without the least compunction.
The case of Old Brown furnishes an in
stance. All the morccnary and trafIicinr
hucksters are calculating what can be
made out of Old Brown. The abolition.
lists pretend that if he is hanged they
will be great gamers, for they will have
u martyr, and tits said that even many
Democrats coincide in this opinion Now
any one who supposcs that Brown is, or
can be in any sense martyr, must, Of
necessity, be an abolitionist. Indeed.
any one who believes it possible to SO
torture the most horrible and revolving
crime into anything like justGable act,
must be at heart what Brown is in re-
atty. The Daily Times this morning,
which has pretended all along to exc
crate Browns crimes, says that "no-
thing could possibly happen that would
give them (the aboli;ionlsts) SO strong a
hold upon the public sentiment of the
North as the public execution of John
Brown" Can this be possible? Is the
North, then, going, after all, to uphold
murdercrs Is the Daily Times going
over to Browns side of the case If
there be any ground far this remark,
then we hope by all means that Gov.
Wise will not step in between the hands
of justice and save the wrotchcd culprit.
The truth is, Virginia has been unusually
forbcaring and humane in the treatment
of old Brown. Had one of her own citi-
zens been caught in snch an act ns
Brown was, he would have swung from
scaffold before this Why, then.
should Virginia show mercy to Brown E?
He is even more deserving of punishment
than one of her own citizens would have
been, for he deliberately invaded the
State. If there is such sickly scnti-
mentality at the North as to uphold muir.
derers, thieves and assassns, who steal
at the dead hour of the night into u
peaceful village and shoot down its in
habitants, imprison its citizens, &c, let
it be put to the test Let US see who
will uphold Old Brown. We want them
pointed out. Let justice be yindicatcd :,
and we shall then know who comes to his
defense. When pirates. assassins, and
muir iercrs have monuments erected to
their memory at the North, it will be
time for every man to look to his own
personal safety. At all events, let us
know who thinks Brown a martyr.

SARCASTIC SENTENCE old Elias Lcvos,
formerly first Judge of Windsor county,
VT, was a strange composition Of folly
and good sense, of natural shrewdness,
and want of cultivation. The following
sentence, it is said, was pronounced upon
poor ragged fellow, convicted Of steal
ing pair Of boots from Gen. Curtis, o
man Of considerable wealth in the town
Of Windsor .-"Well," said the JWlfe
very gravely, before pronouncing IT,
sentence Of the court, intending to read
the fellow lecture, you're a fine chap
to be arraigned before the court for steal
ing. They say you are poor; no one
doubts it who looks at you, and how dare
you, being poor, to have the ilnpudence
to steal a pair of boots Nobody but
rich people have the right to take such
things without paying Then they say
worthless-that is evident from the fact
that no one has ever asked justice to be
done to you, all by unanimous consent
pronounced you guilty before you were
tried, Now you might know you would
be condemned And now you must
know that it was a great aggravation,
that you stole in the large town Of Wind
sor. In that large town to commit such
an act is most horrible. And not only
go into Windsor, but steal from ttat man,
Gen. Curtis. This caps tho climax Of
your iniquity. -I'aso wretch why did
you not steal the only pair of boots which
some poor man had or could get? And
then you would have been left alone
nobody would have troubled themselves
about the act. For your iniquity IN
stealing in the great town Of Windsor,
the court sentences you to three months
imprisonment in the county Jail, and may
God give you something to cat"

The west point cadetshIp.

We receive SO many letters from Young
lads making inquiries respecting the
mode Of gaining admission to the Mil,
tary Academy at West Point, that We
conclude there is very general desire
among the youth Of the United States
to figure in The character Of a bold sol
der boy.
1t may be seryiceablo to these aspir-
ing youths to be informed, that the IA
nous institution on the classic heights Of
the Hudson is not the paradise which
some OF them seem to fancy it, 1t is a
blending Of school and camp, with the
rigors of both. The cadets are pupils
and soldiers and have severe duties to
perform in both capacities; which duties.
as they are paid for performing them,

bestowed for superiority in mathcnatics.

urous, and the pay--something less than
thirty collars u month barely covers
the unavoidable expenses. In addition
to camping out during the summer, and
rising before the sun at all seasons, and
performing outdoor drill and sentry duty
N all weathers and temperatures, the ca

Misdirec.ed and Affected sympathy

Never since the sentimental Sterne
poured out liis pathOs over dead dom
key while ho could allow his nearest re-
latiYe D. her old age to suffer frcm pow
ertJ aad sickness aud sorrow without
offering tho smallest assistance or solace,
have 80 had such display of affected
,compassl1u as that made by the political
paSsons af1 abolition cssayists, over the
rebel ara murderer Brown. Mr.. Hallot,
Of Bostohg thus commented on the con
duct Of these pseudo-philauthrophists F.:
The poor child-bercft old man p
exelaims the Rev. Mr.. Ward Beechsr in
his sermon on slave Instruction. And
how came he d-bcrcft? In Kansas
he and bis sons, going there not to settle
but to fight, hal murdered Jour dcfcace-
less men in colt Liood, duggcd Erom their
bcds in midaighi Up to that time,
says the Kansas Herald Of Freedom, not
a hair Of old John Browns head, or of
any Of his sons, had been injured. Three
months after that, the man of blood was
attacked in his turn and one Of his sons
killed. Three years after that, he is
found conspiring with Northern aboli-
tionists 10 raise scryile war in Virginia,
and he carries his sons there, who, after
drugging men from their bells al mid
night, and @i0oting down The l1yor anil
other citizens at Horper's Ferry, arc
themselves shot in the act OF robbery, in
yasion, and murder. And there upon
anti-slayery philanthropy IN the pulpit
cries out, Poor chihi-bercH Oid nun ?
Mr.. II said il reminded him Of recent
trial Of a p icide in France. The man
had cruelty murdered his father and mo-
Their. and Of course he was an orphan by
his own crime, just as John Brown is
child-beroft by his crimes The parri-
eide was convicted, and on being called
up for sentence, was asked by tho judge
If he had anything to say. Nothing,
said he, only ! pray you to have pity

love the wales, love the hills,
Around my childhood's early home;

That laugh and play there all alone.
Amid them, once loy'd to play,
And listen TO the mock-birds sing
And even now, though far away,
Ny fondest thoughts around them cling.
love the old decaying cot
Where first in prayer learn d to bow,
With love ones, meier to be forgot,
Although theyre swectly sleeping now.
Around that hearth we used to meet
As one, in JOY, in hope, in prayer;
Our father, mother, used to greet
The little family circle there.
But now, alas those days are DER
nee shall see that home again
Those friends, on earth, Ill meet no more !;
Oh how it gives this bosom pain.
see those bending willows keep
A vigil DER their sleeping dust;
And why should now longe. weep?
