Riches.

You may put man in the midst OF all
the m, sicsl instruments in the world ,1nd
if he does not know how to play on them
they will afford him no pleasure. You
may heap wealth upon man until 1t cas-
lie itself 10 heaven aud yet he may be q
pauper. The paupers are no: in the poor
houses. but in mausions--tor a man IS
rich only by so much as he knows how
to use what ne has; everything beyond
that is poverty. l do not think that the
asses that lug the gold ore from the mines
are rich: and yet many men choose 10
take their places, aud spend their whole
life and bend themselves double, to carry
that which always will be aburden to them
They do not carry it to make 1t power
Of usefulness, they do not carry 1t 20 make
it inGame and feed mora power, by nen'
efaction--by a large divinity of benet
Iccnce: they carry it merely as gold, as
properly: and they are beasts OF burden
Ibu dened. Multiiudes and multitudes o
such beasts there are, and ten Thousand
aping men running after them saying
"Oh that | we're they, or like unto them
And so the steep path from ihe mine t
the point where they throw off their loa
i, worn so smooth that many who wal!
upon it overburdened slip pand go to perdl

BY GEORGE W. LIE CATO.

Matte Weston was unquestionably the
belle of the little village of l. The
Young ladies had already acknowledged
Ter superior charms, and since this was
the case, no one attempted to g'lnsay the
fact. =,
And we'll she deserved the title. She
was a young lady of superior talent OF
weM-trained morals, and OF good eunca'
lion. Add to this the wealth of her pa
rents and her venus like beauty, and you
will have general idea of our charming
heroine. Human nature, however Tree
from fault it may sometimes appear, must
have i,s blemishes and impericctiohs, and
we must naturally turn to see where that
imperfecton exists in the Young lady be-
fore us.
Matte was the only child Of an indul-
gent parent. sEc had been reared In lux
ury, Laving her wishes gratifed as soon
as expressed and her idle whims borne
with by kind aunt, who had encounter
ed the task of training her. Consequent
1y il is not to be wondered at that she
grew up, in measure, spoiled and pet
led child; and after having developed into
womanhood, have carried thiher a few
marks OF her childish imperlectons, whlcl
fathers eye had failed to observe ant
correct.
There seemed 10 be a natural pre'dis
position in Maltie's nature TO trltie VIII
those whom her superior attractions bro
before her nolice--a natural result arising
from the fact that she had been two ofIe
complimented upon the charms che reaI
did possess. The circumstances undo
which she had been brought up, thong
they ought not to he spoken OF in rallla
tion of her after life, certainly had an e
feet upon our Ma:tie's conduct which wa
deplorable. Some young ladies, thong
similarly reareI. do not suffer from sue
effects, owing, no doubt, to the ditlerent
of disposition and feeling.
She had not long completed her cduc

The Night Before the Moving.

All shimmcting in the morning shlno'
And diamonded with dew,
And ouivering with the scented wind
That thrills the green earth through
The little field, the smiling field
With all its flowers 'a-blowing,
How happy looks the golden feld
The day before the moving
And still meath the departing light,
Twilight-though void of stars,
Save where, low wostering, Venus SINKS
From the red eye OF Mars;
How peaceful sleeps the silent field,
With all its beauties glowing,
Half stirring-like child in dreams
The night before the moving
Sharp steel. inevitable hand,
Cut keen-cut kind Our field
Weknow full well must be laid low
Before it fragrance yield.
Plenty, and mirth, and honest gam
Its blameless death bestowlng-
And yet we weep, and yet we weep,

The Davis Resolutions.

On Thursday last, the Uuited States Senate
brought the prolonged debate upon the caucus
resolutions reported by Mr.. Davis, to conclu-
sion and finally, by vote of Sc to 10, adopted
them as an authoritative exposition of the doc
trines Of the Democratic party on the subject OF
Congressional and Territorial power on the sub
feet of slavery. The resolutions assert that nei-
Their Congress Eor Territorial Legislature pos
sesses power directly or indirectly to impair the
right of any citizen to take his slave property
into the common Territories, and there hold and
enjoy the same while the Territorial condition
remains; that should the Territorial government
refuse to afford protection to such property, il
will be the duty of Congress co supply the def
cheney; and that the inhabitants of Territory
when they rightfuly form State Constitution
may for the first time decide whether slavery
shall be maintained or prohibited within their
jurisdiction.
The adoption of the resolutions, says the Bal
timore American, by nearly full vote Of all the
Democratic Senators, will increase the difficulty
of satisfactory settlement of the question by the
National Convention which meets here next
month. The resolutions as they stand are semi
official expressions of the faith of the party
which that Convention cannot safely ignore. and
yet which the majority of its members from the
Free States dare not adopt without tacitly &C.
cepting an utter defeat 10 the Presidential con-
test.
