Senator SEWARD unqusstionably stands first
among the living Statesmen Of the Republic
He speaks words of truth and sobsrn0ss, ahd IN
the speech we publish addresses himself with
preat directness aud force to the issue which
the Slave States, as capital States, have forced
upon the Free States, as labor States. It is a
iull; calm, dispsssionate, and philosophical
exposition Of the controversy between the
RepubIean and Democratic Parties, and will
lie everywhere sought !or and read with avidity.
It's temper and tone win commend it to all men
and the frankness and sincerity, as well as
fsarlessaess Of avowal and fairness OF discus
sion, must disarm prejudics, allay agitation
and advance the Right. The Tribune well
IemaFks-"0ther Statesmen generally seek to
narrow and belittle the issues which divide and
convulse the country; Gov, Seward gives them
their fullest emphasis. The "irrepressible
conflict" was never more broadly affirmed,
more distinctly set forth, than in this very
speech. The most advanced Republican must
realize that his convictions are herein embodied I;
vet the most vehement Slavery Extensiouist must
likewise feel that IFS spirit Is lmDue0 anu sunNse1
with ifaternal kindness towards the south, and
most devoted, unsectlnal patrlotism-tha. its
author recognizes she People OF the Slave states
not As casually and temporarily united with US IN
political partnership, but as brethren and ooun-
trymen yesterday, to-day, and forever-that our
Union Is perpetual, beyond the power OF faction
and mad ambition; and that the only permanent
effect of each serious attempt ct its dissolution
must be the ruin Of those engaged in It. GOV.
Stewards faith IN Liberty and Freedom OF Discus.
sion as couservstors Of National existence and
vitality is boundless and invinobe No peril, no
calamity Of the hour, shake his conviction that
our Union and our Free Institutions are destined
10 endure and expand forever. This constitutional
optimism, in the presence Of widespread alarm,
partly hypochondriac, partly hypocritical is 10
itself strong antdote TO the fantastic terrors It
defes aud oombats. The Union will never be
shattered in the presence Of such lmpregnable
faith in its endurance"

One evening twilight was walking along
ono OF the streets Of our beautiful city
a'tne, but persons were passing about here
and there. 1t was light enough 10 dstin
guish features clearly at short distances bu
was creeping on towards dark quito appre
c'ably. A little girl, perhaps seven years
Old, meeting me stopped, and by doing SC
arrested my attention. She had swev,
earnes, face, and nm expression Of thought,
fu'ness without gloom. Her inquiriug eyes
met mine. and dwelt upon my face for q
'moment then is slightly puzzled bu,
entirely confiding tone she asked mo:
Are you going anywhere, sir-in par.

had only time for smile before she
quickly added -
because, ifyou aint. will you please
! walk with me to our corner-back wonder,
:he way you camc2 L, isn't pery far, but
will you go?'
My encouraging ooh, yes was dropped
IN here as we turned together towards her
home. She went on:
ITS not very far, but STAYED luter than
'honght TO; and it was only in her slight
emphasis on the slater that conveyed her
reason for asking my protective attendance
for enIisting my galautry so extemporane-
ousy
Her hair was but slightly dark, and her
cyes-tllose that divcd SO trustinrly into
minc-were dark gray. Her voice was
low and earnest, and not wanting in u
certain playfulncss. She had book in her
hands, and when |, asked her what she
had been reading, she handed me The GOOD
Girls Book with the native remark little
archly made,
"Mine; it was given TO me; but don't
know that its name suits me exactly

was telling me just then:

Little Mary, thank you for that evidence

little heart. Remember, Mary, should YOU
