and to heal the injuries which the con-
vulsion of agony has left behind it up
on the body polite; but with the ex-
tinction of involuntary servitude many
of those germs of evil which threatened
the healthy development of her nation
al life were destroyed. A tolerated
wrong secretly taints the moral nature,
whether of individuals or of nations,
in its very springs; but when thst
wrong is deadly, when it is not merely
tolerated, but gloFied in, when it is ex-
allied into authority, when it becomes
a standard to which manners, habits,
proprieties, morals, religion are made
to conform, there is no possibility of
foreseeing the extent to which its cor

Rugged to her bosom spoiled her for
playing her part worthily in the worlds
affairs, and, had she not renowned it
would, in course of time have convert
ed her into the highest champion OF
national lawlessness and sin. Happily,
the better elements of her character
got the ascendancy oyer her, and the
danger is at an end. Not merely are
her slaves free, but she has freed her
self for s nobler and more glorious, be-

A fond parent heard his daughter
and her fellow plan an elopement. The
next day the old man waited upon the
young one and addressed him thus: -
"You are a fine brave youth, and l
don't object to you for a son.in.law.
Here's q hundred to aid in an elope-
ment. May you live happily in the
same house, and may no accident occur
to throw the least shade on the sun-
shine of your life. All / request is, that
you elope with my daughter-she's a
mighty nice girl, you know, but some
how her mother and 1 could never
travel smoothly with her, We don't
know her good points; elope with her
to such q distance that she won't re-
turn to her loving father and mother
any more. Goodbye, sonny, and may
you be happy" There was an elope-
ment that evening of one. The young
man went unaccompanied. He thought
everything could not be entirely right
when the old cock was so anxious to
get rid of the girl. The father looks
upon his act as a very neat bit of
strategy, for n who had never been
on McGlellan's staff.
