reproach her; with the priceless boon of
lheatth. how could she call herself poor2
She now returned with light step,
but lighter heart, to the little cottage
from whose windows she already saw a
light beaming invitinGly. The cozy sit
ting-room had never looked so pleasant
to her before; cheerful fire burned in
the CRATE her husband was seated near,
reading the evening paper, and Charley
was asleep in his arms The tea-table
was neatly spread, only awaiting her re-
turn and as she laid aside her outer
garments, Jane brought in the tea and
toast, Charles laid his little boy down
gently il the crib, and after giving his
wife the usual kiss Of welcome, they sat
down to their evening meal.
" Had a good time, Mary 2" was his
frst inquiry.
" Yes, Charles, it has been truly a
good time, f5r 1 have learned lesson,
this afternoon, which l trust will be life
long in its good results. I have been
taught that none, however favored, can
expect unalloyed happiness on earth, and
that wealth does not bring with it per-
feet enjoyment | would not exchange
my quiet home, my husband, and my
baby, my health, and my warm heart,
for all the glittering treasures that gold
alone eau buy. | have learned that the
sweetest of all earthly blessings is con-
t6atmemr'
That evening, after Charles had re-
turned TO his store, and little Charley
had been undressed, Mary was seated at
her little work-table, but the sewing
dropped from her fingers, and she took
up her pocket-bible, the gift Of her sointed
mothers was it an angels hand that
opened it at the words of the Apostle ?

And having food and raiment, let

"But they that will be rich, fall into
temptation. aud snare, and into many
foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown
men in destruction and perdition."

all evil which, while some coveted after,
. they have erred from the faith, and
pierced themselves through with many
SORROWS"
And as Mary closed the sacred volume
these words sank deep into her heart.

- Education is better safeguard Of

THE ENGAGEMgNT AT CAREIFEX FERRY.
On Monday last we received intelli-

heavy force, from the direction Of SUIT

Tuesday morning Col. McCauslin's re-
gimcnt, which had been down at Sum
meryille, as our advance, was driven 10,
and the enemy encamped fourteen miles
distant from US. We expected him to
drive ia our pickots on Tuesday night,
and attack US on Wednesday morning,
but, contrary 10 these expectations, he
forced his march and drove in our pick

battle was at once formed behind our

leri but that business having lately suffered Sc
r'ously through the extensive discoveries Of ke.
rosene or coal OIL and proving less lucrative
than formerly, she was offered for sale in San
Francisco, and purchased by this firm, as al.
ready stated. She is built Of white oak, in the
most substantial manner, and is as good as new.
Her capacity is about four hundred tons, and her
sAling qualities are equal to those Of the fastest
vessels on the coast She made the passage to
Port Townsend in eight days, and arrived here
on last Thursday night bringing dates from San
Francisco as late as those received overland.
Under the command Of Capt Freeman Trask,
one Of the first and most successful nayigators Of
this coast, We confidently look TO the Iiassaehu.

sels having left San Francisco the same day, and
arrived the same time at Port Townsend and
here. Capt A. Y. Trask has not been less for.
tunate than Capt Freeman Trask In making in.
variably quick passages; indeed, these two
brothers are Proverbial for their success in this
particular, which speaks well for their superior
seamanship.
Notwithstand ng the general complaint Of hard
times, and especially among lumbermen, during
the past year, Il is highly gratifying to notice the
fact that Balch & Webber are thus able to add
to their popular line one Of the best vessels en-.
gagged In the trade. Besides this addition to their
packets. they have recently made very material
improvements 10 their mill and wharf. Their
mill Is now turning out lumber at the rate Of a
thousand feet per hour, or twenty.iour thousand
feet per day and night which is nearly double
its capacity . year ago. Il Is kept running,
without intermissiOn, from Monday morning to
Saturday night Of each week, Their wharf has
been extended twenty fect in length and some
thirty feet In width, and strengthened through.
out Another storage building has been erected
upon Il which, added to the one previously erect.
cd, will affOru ample accommodation for years
10 come. A capaeiOus water tank has also been
put upon the wharf, from which vessels can con
veniently draw their supplies Of this indispensa.
bic article to any required amount With the
last mentioned addition, it may now be said to
Be complete, and will bear favorable comparison
with the best wharves In San Francisco and else.
