he gazed, with delighted expression, upon
her face. On pereeiving her father, she
rushed forward, and, kneeling at his feet,
exclaimed
Forgive me, forgive me, my dear fatheri

ed. Is this so, Emily he at length ex.
claimed
Even so, SIR faItered she, hiding her

My income, sir said Davenport, raising
Emily from her knees, is clear four thou

connexions, and influence, are powerful and
extensive
The last clause settled the point.
Emily said Mr. S., give me your

Emily threw herself on her fathers neck

UNION SAVERS WANTED. There is
great cry at the South for the Union-sav-
ing meetings, al the North The Southern
ers don't propose to get mp any demonstra-
ton Of the kind themselves, but they in
sist that it is the duty, of "all Northern
patriots" to set up mournful bowling.
Now it strikes US that the business of
Uuion-saving, like that of sharity, may
with eminent propriety "begin at home"
Up here nobody threatens the Union
Nobody in the North wants it dissolved or
talks about dissolving it, the Union isn't in
any danger at this end of it, and conse.
quently cau't well be saved from any.
But down South, where folks are raving
and tearing their garments with impatience
for somebody to hold them, doing violence
to the Union, Union meetings may be held
with great propriety. Where the ulcer is
there apply the plaster Save yonr end of
the UnioH, Messrs. Southern patriots, and
we will warrant you ours won't go under
Suppose Mr. Everett, aud the Brookses,
and Hiram Ketchum, and Fernando Wood,
and Captain Rynders, and other great and
good men of "this section" should hold
meetings to proclaim their devotion TO the
Union, what good would it do !? Every
body knows it already. 1t wonld be no
news frighten nobody but their own
friends, and folks might say it was got up
for political effect
But just let US have good large rousing
