A Yankee Fault to be struggled against.

An American cares less for home and birth
place than the inhabitant of any other country.
This fact has at last been recognised by our
thinking patriots, and movements are making
to correct it-gatherings that is to say, for local
jubilee, Of the sons and daughters of particular
towns. The New York Times has good ar
tcle on the subject, from which we extract a
passage or two:
"Yet there is one melancholy phase in this
feature Of our national life. Universal emigra-
tion from the place of birth has weakened all
local ties in our land, and impaired the sancti-
ties of the family relation. Our police records
the reports of courts that take cognizance of
applications for divorce, and the admitted expe-
rlence of vast numbers of individuals, all testify
to the existence and extent of this great mis-
chief Good service
is done, better than the careless reader may
have fanced, to the real interests of the nation,
ny such gatherings IS are now crowdIng Rhode
Island Newport with its returned sons and
daughters, and will soon he ma king little Con,
nectcut Norwich unwOntedly popuOus. These
reunions forge new links between the individual
and his kind. They touch old chords of ten
derness and loyalty IN hundreds of human
hearts, They rekindle the flickering fame on
many family altar. They bring together the
remotest States of our Union, and soften many
thoughts fast growing into hardest enmity.-
When the wandering Yankee goes back, car
pet-bag in hand, to the old home, the first feel
ing is one Of wonder at the beauty of the land
scape; the fields G low with fresher verdure
the trees cast a mellower, deeper shade; the
sky looks down with a warmer smile upon it
than ever before the hills that in his boyhood
his vision have strangely sunk; the mountain
that was taller then than Alp or Apennine, has
settled in its foundations, the broad river has
shrunk to a rill, but the hills are clothed in
velvet, the lessened mountains beauty is more
spiritually magnificent, and the rlll has more
music IN the ear than the river ever had in the
memory. The wanderer returned feels, too,
more torcibly perhaps than ever before, that he
has been living long years; that he is growing
old indeed that it is time for him to take seri-
Gus account of all that he has lost and gained
in his crowded experience. Dull, indeed, must
be the brain, and sluggish the heart, in which
no good, no generous impulses are quckened
by such brief and vivid retrospect of the pill
grmage Of life. Nor do these celebrations
bring harvests of good to the individuals only
who take part in them. The places in which
they are held renew their youth like the
Gag les in the contact of these truant, not pro-
digal sons, come back to do them reverence"

Gentle aSthe voice of summer.
Waited on the breeze
Soft and low as winds at evening",
Signing mid the trees;
Sweet, as perfumed breath of flowers,
Growing hill and dell
Came into these hearts Of ours,
Little Fannie Bell
Light and sportive. as a fairy,
Full of artless grace,
With the sunshine beaming ever
From her happy face.
And her merry. ringing laughter,
Like some murmuring she'll,
Breathing Of her pure, sweet spirit,
Joyous Fannie Bell!
Eyes, where dwells sOitened glory,
Borrowed Of the sky!
While depth we scarce can fathom,
In their gances lie;
Rosy lips, whose dewy freshness,
Like some magic spell,
Charms each willing heart to love thee,
Darling Fannie Bell
But q SHADOW steals before me
And my uarkened sight
Seeks, in vain, that lOvsly vision,
Clad in holy light!
Angel hands have borne her upward
Yet we nee can tell
How we loved our sweet May-blossom,
Precious Fannie Bell
Asa golden cloud at sunset
Softly fades away,
As lonely star at morning
Pales before the day,
Passed the gentle, loving spirit,
But we know full we'll
That in HEAVEN we soon shall greet thee.
Dear, lost Fannie Bell!

Wine, Woman, and Horses.

This is the sub-headng of an article in last
weeks NeW York Tribune, relating to the
embezzement of over 100000 by Transfer
Clerk of the Fulton Bank, New York-a /" fast"
young gentleman, who had salary OF 81 900
year. and, therefore, had not even the excuse
that he was badly paid His father is gen.
tleman Of probity and character, who has been
Cashier of the Bank since its establishment, 30
years ago. The young man, named William
J. Lane, Jr., is % years old, and married to
lady of great beauty and onplishments.-
The detection of his fraud was made by his own
father, the Cashier, who communicated it to
the Directors at once.
AS usual in most mischief, woman was at
the bottom of IT all. Lane paid 81 900 per an
mum for house. which he had most eXpen-
svey furnished, in which resided under his
"protecton young 4" lady" of 49, with her
mother and brother also living there-quite a
family party, to whom So, 1000 was allowed to
keep house. The Tribune says that among
other trihes which he {" bestowed upon his fair
female charmer, was a diamond cross valued at
1000, pair of gold bracelets worth $500,
five diamond rings, two pair of diamond ear
rings a gold watch and chain, inRumerabe
silk dresses, and various other slight tokens
with which to ca ptivate her youthful affections" )"
These, to The value of 81 900, nave been re-
covered. Lane also had five livery establish
ment, in which he kept four splendid steeds
which cost over SO, ,000-one for which 81 300
had been paid in Mane-and numerous equip
ages for summer aud winter use. He had not
kept YACHT from want of time, but " had
fancy for lotteries, and on one occasion devoted
81 900 to the purchase of small interests In
schemes of great promise. For two weeks in
succession, he is represented to have spent
$3.50 day of his fclOniousy obtained funds in
procuring lottery tickets and for all his capi-
tai thus invested he only drew single prize OF

quently seen in, the handsomest equipage in
New York, drawn by the fastest horses that
ever kicked up the dust. at 2.4O, on the Bloom
ngdale road. He luxurated, with his lady
friend" in the richest luxuries of the table and
the rarest wines. He was seen, by some of the
Bank Directors dashing away as if he were
millionaire, and when some kind of inquiry was
made, uspicion, if wakened, was lulled by the
reply that he had profitable New Jersey
agency, and made money by employing his
leisure hours as a book keeper!
The question arses-are not the Bank Di-
rectnrs a great deal to blame, in such cases as
this, for not being a little more observant OF
the outside lives of their employees? When a
transfer clerk constantly drives u team worth
So 900, carriage which may have cost 800
would it be justice or mperlinence to ascertain
how he came by it! In word, is not the care
lessness of the employer a frequent premium
upon the clerks extra expenditure and subse'
quent breach of honesty Press.

EleCtiOneering,

Governor p. of Kentucky, tells a cou-
pie of good ones on himself. When on can
vass preceding his election, he stopped at a
cabin on the wayside 10 the eastern mountains
of the State for bite of dinner. The good
housewife served him better repast than he
expected, tender and juicy fresh venison being
one of the courses, followed by a tempting dis
play of pastry. Cutting into one of the pieces
aud tasting the same, he was entirely propiti-
ated, and he paid his compliments 10 the lady
by way of making an inquiry:
Madam" said he, " this is very delicious
pie; but upon my word don't know what the
fruit is in it-pray tell me if you please"
"Why, stranger, where did you come from o.
demanded the dame in turn.
"Well | am from the lower part ofthe State,
but no such fruit as this grows there. Indeed
madam, am ignorant of this fruit, and beg you
will inform me what it is.
"Up for Governor" said the astonished wo
man, and don't know huckleberries Well
mistrust you amt fitted for Office"
The Governor would have relnquished the
track but his party wouldn't let him Off and ht
was elected in spite of his ignorance of buckle
berries.
Smyrna times., 1859-09-29

On another occasion he stopped for supper
at q cabin not SO well provided al the former.
The poor woman of the house had neither su-
gar, tea, nor coffee, and spread before him
dish OF clabber, uttering prolusion of apologies
and regrets that her house was so i'll provided.
"Why madam" said he, with perfect truth,
al prefer this to tea or coffee or even straw
berries and cream; and often take it in prefer
ence on hot evenings like this, when at home.
1t requires no apology for could net be better
suited" 5Hf
"Now Stranger" responded the doubling
lady, care you lying jist because you are a
candidate, for I've hearn them candidates is the
lyinest critters on yerth."
The Governor could only vindicate his truth
! by boiling a second dish Of clabber.
