LIVELY TInEs IN BosToN-We hear from
Boston that the New England Anti-Slavery So
ciety, Garrison, Quincy, Phillips & Co.. intend
to hold their regular yearly meeting in the Ire.
mont Temple in a few days. A row is antici-
pated, and the Mayor has decided officially,
that the police force under his orders cannot
be { led to protect the meeting. The force
Is very small, and would not be able to pre-
serve order if the experiment should be tried.
Governor Andrew, John Browns admirer has
declared however, that the meeting shall be
held and that he will call out the State militia,
of which he is commandment chief, to preserve
order at the point of the bayonet. This makes
the matter a very serious one, and it would APP
pear that the Governor has, in his over zeal
for the cause Of the black man, gone too
far, and placed the lives Of numerous
white men in jeopardy. One peculiarly of the
Boston mob is that it is always led by highly
respectable people-individuals holding COM
missions in the very regiments which the Co.
vernon must call upon. If the abolitionists ex-
pect that the men who assisted in the execution
of the Fug tive Slave act, and who were Will
fed outrae, ously for so doing, wnl now turn
about aud support the very persons by whom
they have been abused, we opine that they will
reckon without their host. Any sensible per-
son would imagine that the radical abolition
lists might be satisfied with the mischief they
have already made, and keep quiet for a while;
but they are all crazy-crazy as the people of
Charles ton, who have destroyed their own COM
merce for the benefit of their Savannah rivals.
The radical abolitionists and the Simon Pure
fre-eaters are exactly alike although apparent
ly as widely asunder as the North and South
poles.

SKATING IL THE CENTRAL PARK.-Skating in
the Central Park has become an extensive insti-
tuition. There is hardly day passes that there
are not some fifty thousand people on the ponds
there. On Monday ffty-fve thousand skaters
were counted on the ice, and seventeen hun
dred vehicles drove through the Park. Sixty
thousand skaters were there yesterday. During
the sleigbing period $500 sleighs have been
there III one day. We have no doubt that if
the Central Park were to be cut off tomorrow,
there would be almost as great q sensation as
the failure of the Croton caused the other day,
80 ssential have its resources become to
the people. Parks were usually considered
most valuable as places of summer resort, and
lungs for large city in sultry weather; but we
have changed all that, for our Park is really
more available in winter than N summer. In
the latter season it presents but few advan-
tages, but in winter it is a grand popular gym
nasium and curriculum combined.
TwENTY MuLoNs.-Mr. Dix, the new Secre-
tary of the Treasury, in examining the condi-
ton of his money boxes, estimates that twenty
millions. in the way of loan or Treasury
notes, will be needed to meet the expenditures
Of the government to the LIST of July, upon the
basis Of he peace establishment. Mr.. Cobb
thought hat the department, with the loan and
notes on hand, could manage to get through
the fiscal year. After bankrupting, by his mis-
management, the government Of the United
States, he has gone home to Georgia; and if
Georgia will only make him her Secretary of
the Treasury, we dare say that she will soon
become disguised with the blessings of seces-
sion.

Quietly, and it may be tearfully, We live over
again, for few moments, the calm happiness,
the tenderness and sorrow Of our early years, and
of all the past. We feel, for a breath or two,
just as we did on the warm ng ghts when with
Willie and Lucy, We chased the hreflies on the
grass around the door Of our log cabin home.
Lucy went 20 live with the angels when she was
six wears old, and Willie and carried flowers TO
her grave some times--but We are hundreds OF
miles from it now, and there is no one TO rain
the roses over her tombstone
The heart thrills as we remember our fathers
strong love: it feels hglier when fancy brings
again the touch of our mothers fingers, as she
puts back the locks from our heated brow. We
raise our eyes TO meet her look of love. and see
only the innumerabe stars. Her home is among
them now, and the path all the way thither is
beautiful with their shining.
We shut the window. Sleep "comes like the
benediction that follows after prayer" The
white wings of angels CLEAN around US. Famil-
lar voices call US, and in dreams we murmur,
1--WE are coming We kiss again the lips that
long ago have turned to dust; and walk in a
beautiful world with the loved ones cf the olden
time.
This is sleeping-dreaming. By and ly will
come the morning eternal, and "there shall bs
no night there

among the brightest stars of human greatness.
It is well for US to consider that il is not alwavs
those who have received the advantage of a
knowledge of books that are great, but those
who have hearts that swell for the welfare Of
their country and their fellow men. Nor is il al
WAYS those who are born of high and wealthy pa
rents that rise to distinction, fame and honor.
but there are those who have been found along
the humblcst paths of life that have arisen and
the richest laurels ever created for mortal
man. From examples of this Kind We can emu
meIate the brightest stars ever known TO shine
in the constellation of human greatness. George
Washington and VIM. Henry Harrison were far
mers; Ben Franklin was printer; Patrick Hen
ry was an inn-keepcr; Roger sherman was a
shoemaker; Tom Corwin was n wagon boy;
Henry Clay was mill boy of the slashes; Sir Isaac
Newton was spectacle maker; Demosthcnes
was blacksmith; Christopher Columbus was a
poor carpet weaver. There are host of 9th
ers that could be named who have arisen from
very humble walks of life to eminence, and now
stand upon the brightest pages of the history OF
