MY Mother.

Some gentlemen passing through the
beautiful village of Renton, in the Vale
Of Leven, Dumbartonshirc, about nine
o'clock at night, some time ago, had their
attention directed to dirk object in the
churchyard. On going in to ascertain
what it was they found boy Of tender
years lying flat on his face, and appar-
emily sound asleep over a recently. made
grave. Thinking this not very safe bed
for him they sho:k him up and asked how
he came ia be there. he said he was
afraid to go home, as his sister, with
whom he resided, had threatened to beat
him. "ARd where does your sister l;ve?'
asked one of the party. ain Dumdarton," !"
was the answer. "In Dumberton-near-
ly four miles of how came you to wan
der so far away from home 7" I just
CAM" sobbed the poor little fellow, "be
cause my mothers grave was here" His
mother had been buried there a short
time before, and his seeking refuge at
her grave in his sorrow was a beautiful
touch of nature in a child who could
scarcely have yet learned to realize the
true character Of that separation which
knows of no reunion on earth. Thithel
had he instinctively wandered to sob out
his sorrows, and to moistcn with tears the
grave Of one who had hitherto been hil
natural protector, for he had evidently
cried himself asleep.

reelection Of President Lincoln, in it's
issue Of the 17th gave tho following ad-

BE MODERATE There is painful

We allude to the talk about more blood

he had the power but we beg to remind
the excitable that their noise and blusier
viii do no good. The question for all TO
consider is, was Mr.. Lincoln humane,
kind and forgiving, or inhuman, harsh
and bloodthirsty? We know that his
bitterest opponent must confess that ho
was the former. IF he was, we know he
was, the best way to honor. his memory is
to cling TO his principles. and practice

so pre- eminenily distinguished him as the
Executive Of this nation. We deplore
his death as deeply as any one in the

to tarnish the fame of the land he served,
and whose flag he triumphantly carried

parties are so evenly balanced, it is Wis
dom to pause before such an inhuman,
anti Lincoln and un-American system is
initiated.
On the 10th inst, certain parties are
to be hanged in indianapolis. We know
nothing Of the merits of the case, but vc
do know that Mr.. Lincoln, if he lived,
would neuer sign their dedth warrants If
they uere condemned by a thousand mil

Again wo adjuro the admirers of Mr..

The Slayer of Booth.

The Albany Ecening Journal (Repub-
lican) thus notices the attempt that has
been made to manufacture hero out Of
COrbett, the slayer of Booth. 1t say:
at is extremely laughable to see what
ridiculous pains are taken for the lauda-
ton Of Boston Corbett, who shot Booth.
We are treated to a history Of his early
life; circumstantial narrative Of his re-
ligious conversion "a graphic delineation
of his personal peculiarities, and a daily
bulletin respecting his present condition
and sayings. 1t appears that Corbett is
very eccentric chap. Among his pecu-
liarities is that Of disobeying orders and
going it on his cwn hook'--a quality
not supposed to be the highest element
of soldiership. When Booth was shut
up in the burning barn, around which
stood twenty eight men, waiting for him
to emerge, as he must soon have done,
Corbett was posted at q certain point, and
told to stay there instead Of doing SO, ho
made an eccentric movement to the back
of the building, got favorable position
beside crevice, drew bead on the mur-.
derorer, splendid mark, as he stock mo-
tionlcsJ in the glare-and shot him
Perhaps, as one romantic correspondent
asserts, he "offered up mental prayer
for the soul of Booth as he pulled tho
trigger" All things considered, tho as.
sassin could not, perhaps, have been bet
ter disposed of. But it really is a sug.
gcstive proof of the disposition to manu-
facture heroes out of very small material,
that this rash act of disobedient soldier
should be made a pretexs for his glorif. !.

A Discrepancy.

a week ago Monday it was stated in
the dispatch announcing the capture Of
jeff Davis that, rs soon as he discovered
that he was surrounded, he hastily threw
on one of his wife's dresses and sought to
escape to the woods by running; that in
running he showed pair of boots, and
thereby exposed his sex that the race
was short, and that when brought to bay
he somewhat de6antly brandished a bow
ic knife; but that a preponderance Of
Colts ReuoluerS soon banished all notions
Of resistance.
We are now told by telegraph that
when our men went to JEFF Davis tent,
they were met by Mrs. Davis, en- disha-
bile, with "pleuse, gentlemen, don't dis.
turb the privacy of the ladies before they
have time to dress;" that they were
granted timo to dress, when presently
there appeared at the tent door an ostens
ible old lady, with bucket on her arm,
escorted by Mrs. Davis and her sister,
who plead that the old lady should have
permission to goto the spring 70 procure
water to wash with. The request was de.
MED and JEFF Davis was unmasked on
the spot, aud kept from budging by
having Spencer rife Immediately point
cd at his ear.
This last account does not represent
him as attempting to run, but rs having
been tricked out as as an old woman, with
bucket, instead of bowie.knifc, in his
hand, and that he was made passive by a
Spencer rife, instead of preponderanoe
Of Colts revolvers,. There should be a
perfect agreement as to tho plight JEFF
Davis was in when captured, or large
portion of the public will be inclined to
disbelieve altogether tho statements that
he sought to elude capture through the
disguise Of female apparel. Between
these Two statements there is such dis.
orepancy as to create skepticlsm touch.

Shooting Array in Kansas.

A shooting affray in Leavenworth last
week between two noted Kansas politi-
clans, Col. Jennison and D. r. Anthony,
has made quite an excitement there. The
Conservative has the following account
oft:
Jennison was sitting in his buggy on
Shawnee street, in front Of the Overland
Express office, talking with Mr.. A. j.
Angel. Col. A. came along, and Jenni-
son, dropping the reins 10 the horse said,
"Hold on moment, I want to speak with
Anthony at the same time spriuging
from his buggy, and going towards him.
Anthony approached, and as he did SO
drew his revolver. Jennison said, II
want to talk with you," or words to that
effect, and held up both his empty hands
towards Colonel Anthony. Colonel A..

Simultaneous, Anthony still retrcated

fred the last shot, the ball striking the
stone work inside the door, Anthony
disappeared inside the house, and was
not seen afterwards. Jennison made an
Intellectual search of the premises, and
then went back to his luggy, got and
drove away. Mr.. Woods, who was shor,
was sitting on the steps Of the Planters,
as were also Mr.. Jep Rice, Captain Tuft
and Mr.. Clark. Neither Colonel Jenni.
sons nor Mr.. Woods wounds are danger
Gus, though the formers is very severe.
Not being acquainted with the origin
Of the difficulty, we are not prepared to
say who is the aggressor but we do
know that affairs of this, or any other
kind, are highly disgraceful to our city,
and particularly merit censure when the
lives of innocent citizens are thus freely
or carelessly jeopardized.

A GAY DECEIVER.


Sister, on Life's stormy main,
Depending on another,
And you who navigate the same,
Whom we will call brother,
Think ye tina all the many forms,
Attired in silk and beaver,
Will prove true friendsin oil llfe's stomrs;
Not one gay deceiver?
All, all, beware, my trusting friend,
Or you may deeply rue it,
When its too late to make amend,
And sigh, wish knew it
wish I'd known that some Of those
Who move in silks and beaver,
Do only live to show their clothes,
And be o gay deceiver.
Now, when you see lady fair,
Bedaubed with rouge and powder,
Clothed with many an empty air,
And trips along still prouder;
And IS on The street OF suns decline,
Bold as q brave achiever,
Consider well her true design,
For she's gay deceiver.
If she should speak naught but to please
The one to whom she's talking,
OF others mien remarks with ease,
Or of their style of walking;
OF everything that you repeat
Avows firm believer,
Consider her the same complete,
A gay, gay deceivcr.
And when you see "fellow" gay.
With kid upon his fingers.
A rattan cane can graceful sway,
While on the street he fingers,
While in his chamber little cares
How looks his cloth and beaver,
This epithet he justly bears,
He is gay deceiver.
If many fumes are on his clothes,
And hair all sleek and ointed,
If afIectation lurid glows
When he has disappointed,
If pleasing words play on his lip,
And speaks alone to please her,
Beware, my friend, his fellowship.
For he's gay deceiver.
