Who are the Traitors?

The following resolution was offered in
the Maryland Senate BY Coleman Yellef,
an American from the city of Baltimore,
and voted down by the Democratic ma.
jority:
"Reslced, That the citiz,ns Of Mary
land eau not regard as a 'roe friend to his
country any public man, or any section or
party, who advocates the dissolution Of
the American Uuien, or secession Of
any State or States from this Union ; and
her Representatives in Congress would
misrepreset the wishes of b Fenple BY o.
ting fer any such man for Speaker or for
any other Office"
Thus, by their vote on this resolution
the Democrats favor q man who favors
dissolution of lie Uaioa But no matter
what is done in the name Of Democracy,
all is right; but let any half crazed theor.
iziDg Abolitiouist intimate that be would
not object to dissolviug the Union, they
set up terrible howl, aud charge all up.
on the Republican party! The day for
such nonsense is nearly gope By.

THE MAGIC BOX.


/
A housekeeper's affairs had for lonl
time been becoming very much entangled
and the poor woman knew not wha. to d.
| to get out of her difficulties. After ;
time, she beihought herself of wise old
hermi: who lived in the neighborhood
and 10 him she repaired for advice. She
related to him all her troubles, saying
"Things 60 On badly enough; nothing
prcspers, indoors Or out pray, sir, can
you not devise some remedy for nly mis-,
fortunes
The hermit-a shrewd, rosy old man
begged her to wait, and retiring TO an in-
ner chamber of his cell, after short time
brought out very curious-looking box,
carefully sealed up. "Take this" said he,
"and keep it for one year but you must,
three times day aud three times night,
carry it into the kitchen, the cellar, and
the stable, and set it down in each corner.
| answer for it, that, shortly, you will fad
things improve. But be sure, at the end
of the year, to bring back the box. Now,
farewell
The good woman received the precious
box with many thanks, and bore it care
fully home. The mex. day, as she was
carrying it into the cellar, she met a ser.
want who had been secretly drawing a
pitcher Of beer. As she went, little la
ter, into the kitchen, there she found
maid making herself supper of omelets.
In the stable, she discovered, deep in mire,
the best COW standing, aud the horse, un-
curried, had hay instead of oats. So, ev-
cry day she discovered and corrected some
new faults.
At the end of the year, she, faithful to
her promise, carried the magic box back
to the hermit, and besought him to allow
her to keep it, as it had had most Won
derful effect. "Ouly let me keep it one
year longer, and am sure all will be
remcdied."
The hermit smiled, and replied, "I can
not allow you to keep the box, but the Sc
ere, that is hidden within, you shall have"
He opened the box, and 10 it contained
nothing but slip Of paper, on which was
written this eouplet:
"would you thrive most prosperously,

Christian Heroine In the Rains OF the NIL, q
LaMrtnce.


Christian Heroine In the Ruins OF the AilI q
Lawrence.
The Boston 7rareLer gives the follow
ing among other touching incidents Of
revelations of character by that dreadful
disaster:
"One of the young ladies who made re-
marks iu the Baptist prayer meeting, was
described by her pastor as follows: She
is a girl of more than ordinary capacity,
and the most unassumiug piety. She
worked in the mill, aud her mother work
ed with her On the day of the accident,
the mother left the mill in the afternoon,
as her work had given out, regretting her
loss of time. A short time after, she
heard the terrible alarm. She ran to the
mill, filed with anxiety for her daughter.
No heart beat more wildly in the conflict
of hope and despair. After half hour,
which seemed an age, the daughter was
found, almost unipjured. The joy of the
meeting overshadowed the prolonged anx-
iety of her mother. Her strength, which
had been nerved by excitement, sank
when she found her daughter safe. On
receiving and returning the wild embrace
of her mother, the girl exclaimed, with
sparkling eyes and an expression almost
angelic, 'Oh, mother, have been so hap.
pyv She had looked forward to death,
without fear, even with JOY she had nev-
er known. Several others were in the ru-
ins near her They had fallen from the
fifth story, and were penned in by the ma
chinery aud timbers, expecting every mo.
ment that the roof would settle upon and
crush them. Quite number we're woun-
ded, and some in the agonies of death.
Yet, while death seemed near and certain,
the young girl was self-possessed and calm.
She exhorted those around her to prepare
for death, losing no time and lacking no
earnestness, when time and persuasion
were so precious. She continued in this
way, forgetting all thoughts of life, and
preaching repentance, until she was dis
covered by those who were searching
among the ruins, and borne away. These
facts, which the Christian heroine has
been too modest to tell, are we'll authenti-
Gated BY those who were near her when
she was in the ruins"
The same paper refers to the high prac-
tical Christian virtues exhibited by prea-
chers and physicians, who from the first
took the lead in efforts to rescue the dead
and dying, to relieve the bodies and COM
fort the souls of the wounded, aud in all
things, day and night, to act the part Of
the Good Samaritan. From all portions
of the New England States, New York,
and Pennsylvania, money and other gifts
have poured in. But, alas! from the
South, not dollar, and hardly word Of
pity, has come. So soon has the South
forgotten the nurses aud money, lavished
upon Norfolk, &c, in their recent Attic
,ion ,

Pennsylvania the Tariff.

"Tha., while We approve Of that part OF
the Presidents annual message to the last
Congress expressing preference forspee.jio
over al rql9rcns duties, we can no. believe
these sincere while he retains in Office a
Secretary Of the Treasury who recommend
ed and urged upon Congress an entirely
different policy-and destructive to all
Penrsylvauiaintcrests. Experience proves
that 10 protection can be expected from
tie nationil Democracy, who hare modi-
fed or repealed the only measures which
afforded relief since 1912"
The above expression Of views passed
the House, last week, BY tie unanimous
vote Of the Opposition party. The Adj
ministraiion said they alao would vote for
the first proposition, but denounced the
latter as falsehood, and so voted against
it. History says the latter clause is true
in point Of fact, as we believe the first to
be as matter of opinion. But the Demo-
Gratis seem to care more for the Party, af,
ter all, than for the Tariff, as the leading
power of the party is undeniably Anti
Tariff, whatever few Of their number in
Pennsylvania may be.
