THE INFINITE ORIGIN.

By REV. F. ". FABER.
There's Wilderness in Gods mercy.
Like the Wilderness of the sea;
There's kindness in His justice,
Which is more than liberty.
There is no place where earth's sorrows
Arc more felt than up in heaven;
There is no place where earth's failinps
Have such kindly judgment given.
For the love of God is broader
Than the measure of mans mind;
And the heart of the Eternal
Is most wonderfully kind.
But We make His love too narrow
By false limits of our own;
And We magnify His strictness
With a zeal He will not own.
If our love were but more simple
We should take Him at His word:
And our lives would be all sunshine
In the sweetness of our Lord.

cajele her into coD:plaisanco. For a

character. Whe n he did not insult
her by evil names and foul suspicious ;
when he did not wound her in every

came real torture, he appealed to- her
generosity in the most heart.rending
terms, for the sake of his wife and
family and the influence that his disin-

known. 1t would be his desth-blow.
It was from death that he asked her to
save him. Though perhaps that letter
wound up with fierce attack, and an
intimation that tomorrow, without tail,
he would send down policeman and
handouts.
Magdalen was peculiarly frank by
nature, yet she was not able to speak to
Paul Of the news which troubled her.
She knew that he could not go through
with 1t bravely, and she did not want
the additional embarrassment of his
weakness. If he sunk, as she was quite
sure he would, under the first approach
OF such gigantic trouble, she would
have to support him as we'll as herself:
That would compioate her troubles.
So she said nothing, and bore her own
burden in silence. But this was the
beginning Of sorrow between them.
Pre-occupled, excited, and consequently,

on one thing only, and that of. suoh

ssMATRTsIONIAL.."

The following advertisement lately APP
peared in the columns of an English con-
temporary 1t will be observed that the
advertiser has a special eye to ''the one
thing needful,' though the reverend gentle
man is in other respects remarkably plausi-
bic: .
"MATRIIoNY.-Dwell on the roman
tic banks Of the River Dart, and within
easy access to the sublime heights of Dart
moor, professional clergyman feels the
solitude of wifeless life, and seeks the
sympathy and aid of lady who is willing
to take his name and the better half of his
home, and the whole of his heart. He is in
stature and comeliness a proper man to
make an offer of marriage. He is not
young, but he is certainly not old, and the
elasticity of his spirits would justify the
assertion that he is likely to hold time al
arms length for many a year to come. Any
lady who possesses in her own right mod
crate independence, and who may be dis
posed to enter into correspondence with the
advertiser, would find that she was treating
with gentleman of honor. He hopes that
no lady who has not a serious intention to
embrace a good offer, and who could not at
the same time bring a reasonable fortune,
will answer this advertisement. As the adj
vertiser is not himself young, he does not
hesitate to say that he shsuld prefer expert
ence rather than frivolous youth in the lady
whom he regarded as worthy Of his affec-
tions. Solid sense and cheerful temper,
together with a reasonable good fortune,
are the elements which he considers to be
essential to promote happy union and a
prosperous welded life. Letters addressed

faithfully and dconscientiously,yet this amena-
bility to public approval or condemnation, is
calculated in a Republic, to check and deter
Judges from oppression and corruption, and
to keep them within the line of right as far
as they conscienciously can do 50. The
Jury system under the old English law,
when the Judge, ike Jeffreys, was appoint
ed and sustained by the power ofthe crown,
was interposed between the tyranny of the
King and his satellites, and the subjects
and was a wise provision which we would
not entirely do away with, even if the con-
stitutiOnal impediments were removed. Yet
the reasons of the jury system is not the
same in Republican form of government
and if it should become so, there is yet
a saving clause in the Constitution, by which
either party may demand and have jury.
The great economy and facility proposed by
this new bill, for carrying on our court bus
mess is apparent. 1t has been adopted by
other States and works well, and it is to be
hoped that it will become the law of Ten
neSsee. 1t will save thousands of dollars
in taxation and costs, to a people already
sorely burdened, and rebound to the best
interest of State. HARDEMAN.

THE RINGS.

To the Editors OF the Union and American:
A few days since there appeared in your
telegraphic columns the following dispatch
from Memphis:
CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION.
A number of the leading newspapers of
the State are urging the necessity of Con-
stitutional Convention, and from the public
expressions of a large majority of the citi-
zens of the Western and Eastern portions
of the State, lavoring the same, may be con-
sidered foregone conclusion. Among the
many subjects brought before it, will be the
reduction of taxes, abolition OF various
county offices, bonding the State debt and
redemption of the genuine portion of the
issue of the State Bank of Tennessee mon
ey, both old and new, amounting to nearly
a million and quarter OF dollars. There
is nearly four hundred thousand dollars out,
two and half millions of which of the new
issue was fraudulently issued.
1.-THE reading of this dispatch aStOnished
the public, but it is explained by the follow
ing in your paper of yesterday:
A sTOCK-JOBBING REPORT.
MEMPHIS, Oct. 24.-The story telegraph
ed from here in regard to the demand for a
Constitutional Convention was gotten up in
wish TO ''bear'' the State bonds, and has no
other support. -.
Who compose this ''ring Of railroaders," :"
and by what means is its purposes to be ac-
cOmplished?
Can't you give your readers some further
information on this subject? You warn
the Legislature of the existence of rings.
Memphis appears from these dispatches to
be the headquarters of the railroad rings,
the object of which is to ''bear" or put down
Tennessee bonds, so that the railroaders
who owe the State may buy State bonds at
a low rate and pay off their Indebtedness.
As there is but one railroad lead
ing into Memphis which owes the
State, these dispatches would seem to
charge the authorities of that road with
being in that ring of bears" For
one, desire to say that know the officers
of that road, and | am satisfied that they
would be as far from putting Tennessee
bonds down as any men in the State.
If there be such ring as is indicated IN
the second dispatch from Memphis, it must
be a combination for private purposes, at the
expense of the credit and good name of the
State, and | agree with you that such ring
should be watched, and watched closely.
\ FRIEND TO THE STATE.
