Horace Greeley'sr Wife in the

nea. The following is not new story,
but is, at least, seasonable
While the last century was aourishing,
there dwelt in what is now famous city
in Massachusetts, an opulent widow lady
who once afforded queer illustration Of
that Geld compound Of incompatibles
called "human nature 1t was New
Years Eve, during one Of those old fash
ioned winters which were SO bitter cold
The old lady put on an extra shawl, and
as she huggcd her shivering frame she
said to her faithful negro servant:
Its a terrible cold night, Sclp. l am
afraid my toor neighbor, Widow Green,
must be suffering Take the wheelbarrow,
Scip, fill it full Of wood, pile on good
load, and tell tho poor woman to keep
herself warm aud comfortable. But be
rore you go, Scip, put some mroo. wood
on the fire and make nice mug o.
flip"
These last orders were duly obeyed,
and the old lady was thoroughly warmed
inside and out. Aud now the trusty
Scipio was about to depart on his errand
Of mercy, when his cCnsidcrate mistress
interposed again:
"Stop, Scip; you need not go now
The weather has moderated"

THE TENDEEPAssIoN.-When a man
is in love with one woman in family, it
is astonishing how fond he becomes Of
every one connected with it. Ho ingra-
iiatcs himself with the maids; ho is bland
with the butler; he interests himself
with the footman he runs an errand for
the daughters; he gives aud lends mon.
ey to the young son at college he pats
l;ttle dogs which he would kick otherwise;
he smiles at old stories which would make
him break out In yawus were they uttered
by any other one but papa; he drinks
sweet Port wine, for which he would
curse the steward and the whole commit.

remark of this kird, we cannot understand.
We have not eeen it in the original; only
know of it from the extract we find in our
Northern exchanges. We strongly suspect
there has been tampering with the text some
where.
But however that be, we can assure the
Post, the Tribune, and oil the holy brethren,
that there exists in this community (which
should be fair specimen of Southern senti-
ment not the sightest disposition to modest
any peaceablo assembly, composed of no mat
ter who, and met for never mind what pur-
pose. In this we speak advisedly. Meetings,
conferences and conventions have teen held
here by loyalists and original Unionists !;
no ono interfered with them in their delibe-
rations; no one "molested them, or made
them afraid" We have learned to tolerate
any and everything.
To say, therefore, that convention of any
possible political or social complexion could
not meet in Charleston, is to assert what is
not true and we cannot better test the ques-
ton than by requesting that the most ex-
treme party of the country,-the very South
ern Loyalists' Conven ton elf,-shall fix
upon Charleston as place of meeting; and
we feel safe in saying that cool and airy
place shall be at their disposal. In fact, as
far as we know, there is not the slightest diff
ficulty in the way of their getting the very
best hall in the city for their deliberations,
provided only they shall give good security
for the payment of the rent. We are not
afraid of an original Union party amongst us,
as the Radical papers insist on saying. We
may have our opinion as to the utility of such
a measure at this time, having the beautiful
example of Tennessee fresh in our memory
but we certainly never dreamed of question
ing the right of HAM1LToN's, WARDwELL's,
or any other party holding an original 10y
alist Convention in this or any city Of the
Union, according as their fancy may dictate.
Now will the papers that copied the ex-
tract from the Washington IateVigeneer, and
30 severely animadverted upon it, deel fairly
and also publish our disclaimer We shall
see.

MUCH ADO About NO THING

The Washington Inteigencer calls "the idea of
calling Convention Of Southern loyalsts" "ex.
tremely fareioal," and adds "It is called to as
semble in Philadelphia, because there is mn place
IN any Southern Slate ,ohere such Conuention
ioonh be tolerated."
This paragraph we find in late number of
the New York Evening Post, and immedi-
ately following it long lecture, not to say
downright sermon, on the unreconstructed
condition of the South. In the New York
Tribune of the same date there is also an
editorial notice of this same diotum of the
Intslligencer. So with other Radical papers
in those regions. They cast up their eyes,
elongate their faces, and throw up their
hands in holy horror at the persistent de-.
pravity of these Southern rebels and barba-
rians.
Now, we are of course very much obliged
to our good brethren for their well.meant and
very Wholesome advice, but we can assure
them that this time it is altogether gratui-
tous. How the Intelligsneer could make q
