NEGRO MOTHER REFUSES TO TAKE CARE OF
HER SICK CHILD.-An act of inhumanity against
which nature revolts, was brought 10 our notice
yesterday. A colored woman named MARY SHAW,
came 10 the city Authorities and wanted them 10
take of her hands her SON. about is years Of age,
who was then suffering with an attack OF cholera.
On being told she must take him home and nurse
him she started out Of the Recorders Office. and
when at the foot Of the stairs. told her boy he
must STAY there on the bare door, that she would
not take him home with her.
For Eve long hours the poor fellow lay there,
unnoticed. until some Of the policeman in passing
by were attracted by his sufIerings. The Recorder
was notified that be had case Of cholera at the
foot of the stairs. and he Immediately hEd the un-
fortunate negro carried TO his mothers house,
with a notification 10 her that she must take him
in and pay proper attention TO his wants. Fear
Of the law. and not love sympathy for her of
spring. compelled her 20 receive him in her house.
We understand the boy nearly dead when
taken home. and he is probably out Of trouble by
this time

all respects, the greatest victory ever
achieved by the Democracy of Lancas-

beneficial effect upon the rest of the
State. The arch demagogue, disunion-
list and traitor, Thaddeus Stevens, has
been signally and terribly rebuked at
his home, and white men everywhere
have good reason to rejoice over the re-
suit"
The editor gives the following signifi-
cant notice: We have been requested
by the treasurer of the fund to announce
to John w. Forney that he is ready with
a detailed account for the expenditure
Of the four thousand dollars, left by him

ing an endorsement of Thaddeus Ste

ueh' sherman was honored with pnb-
nc reception in Detroit last week, when
he concluded speech as follows:
never expect to again command a
military force. We are too powertl,l
for our peace to be destroyed in the fu-
turc by a domestic or foreign foe. The
country has two Eiany men such as those
whom | now see around me. some of
whom accompanied me through the
pine forests of Georgia and the Carolinas
for its quiet lightly to be disturbed
IApplause Michigan herself alone.
and certainly when backed up by Iii
nois, Indiana, and Wisconsin, could
raise an army large enough to not only
repel, but crush, any force or power that
should dare infringe upon our borders.
Cheers. Our national affairs will short
~ be restored to safe and permanent
basis. Congress, when it has finished
a certain amount of talk, as all popular
assemblies must, will speedily settle all
questions. Applause. A year ago
you were anxious for the army which |
had the honor to command. 1t had dis

nothing from it, and knew not where it
was, nor where it was going. Exercise
equal faith now, and matters will come
out as WELL Cheers. ! know the man
at the head of affairs at Washington,

Will die 10 Defend" his resting place
from weary and corroding cares, his
nome OF JOY, where alone his heart can
pourout the fullness of its love and sport
III us most innocent delights. There
Is nothing that can so call out his loftiest
energies, give exercise to his finest feel
lngs, impose restraints upon his fierccst
passions, as the relations into which he
is brought to those that bear his name,
and are made dependent upon him for
protection and support. These relations
supply those genial impulses, which are
requisite to the most perfect develop
ment and growth of his powers, and it
is within the circle of the intense. sa-
cred attachments which these relations
create, that man best plumes his wings
for his highest and noblest flights. The
family constitution, then is the primal
element of society, and any socialistic
theory, any scheme of reform, that tends
to subvert it or obstruct its movements
in the appropriate sphere of its action,
strikes fatal blow at the foundations
of social order and blessedness. Social
lists whether of Europe or America, may
babble as they will about that transcen-
dental love of humanity which processes

the love of family and kindred and
which would trample to the earth this

wild phantom i'm the chase after which
men would convert society into a scene
of chaos and carnage. There is, there
can be no substitute for the family con-
stitution, for the fathers venerable au-
thority and the mothers yearning love.
The lessons of wisdom can never fall
with such sweetness and power on the
heart Of childhood and youth, as when
breathed from a parents lips, and there
are a thousand strong and hallowed in
tluences at work in moulding the char
acter in we'll regulated family, which
could never be supplied if this constitu-
ton We're broken down. Any form Of
society that did not recognize independ-
ent families as integral elements would
be coarse andclumsy mechanism in COM
parison with the rich harmonies of ma
lures laws, and in its actual working
would be the ''impetuous recoil end jar
ring sound of those internal doors, that
on their hinges CRATE harsh thunder. y
Purity, peace, order, and true liberty
will perish, when that word home, the
pride and boast of our vernacular
tongue shall have lost its meaning and
its power
We shall pursue the subject hereafter.

SAVED BY A HORSE. instance Of
the sagacity of animals is given by the
Propagateur du Nord. At farm, near
ST. Amani, was colt, three years old,
Of a very high temper, but peculiarly
gentle with little boy who had been in
the habit of bringing him bits of bread.
One day servant of the farm heard Il
cry from the yard, and. looking out Of
the window perceived that the child had
fallen into a water-cask. She lost no
time in rushing to the rescue, but, on
arriving below, found that she had been
anticipated by the horse, which had
caught up The child by his dress and
withdrawn him from the water. The
owner now declares that he will never
part with the animal.
