The Boy and the Boatmen.

\ young man was once rowing
me across the Merrimack river in a
boat. Some boatmen, going down
with lumber, had drawn up their
boat and anchored in the spot where
the boy wished to pass.
There he exclaimed, "these
boatmen have left their boat right
in my way"
"What did they do that for!-
asked.
"On purpose to plague me- said
he; "but will cut il loose and let
it 60 down the river. would have
them know can be as ugly as they
cam
"But, my lad said l, "you should
not plague them because they plague
you. Because they are ugly to yon
it is no reason why you should be
to them. Besides, how do you know
they did it to vex and trouble your"
"But they had no business to leave
it there-it is against the rules"
said he.
True" | replied, '!and yOn have
no business to send their boats down
the river. Would it not be better
to ask them to remove it out of the
wayr
"They will not comply if I do,-
said the angry boy, "and they will
do so again"
swell, try for Once,' said I. "Just
run your boat little above, or a
little below theirs, and see if they
will not favor you, when they see
you give way. to accommodate
them"
The boy complied; and when the
men in the boat saw the little fellow
quietly and pleasantly pulling mt his
oars, to run his boat ashore above
them, they took hold and helped
him, and wheeled their boat around
aud gave him all the chance lie
wished.
Tins, by submitting pleasantly to
what he believed WAS done TO vex
him, the boy prevented quarrel.
Had he cut the rope, at that time
and place, and let the boat loose, it
would have done the boatmen much
damage. There would have been
fight, and many would have been
drawn into it. But the boy, who
considered himself the injured party,
prevented it all by kind and pleas.

The Mo6ett Register.

RICHMOND, Oct. 3, lS77.--The es.
innate made two weeks ago that the
revenue from the sale of liquors
through the medium of the MOtictt
register wonld reach 100000 for
this city and $500, 900 for the State
per annnm, is verified by the official
results of last months sales. This
insures the Mofiett register as a
permanent source of revenue.
The liquor dealers held a meeting
here to-day, mt which they resolved
to discontinue further prosecution of
the suit in the United States Court,
-nn the alleged patent infringement,
upon condition that the Attorney
General will agree not to proceed
against the bond given TO indemnify
the manufactures of the registers
for damages caused by the late
injunction. They decided to organize
a campaign all over the State against
the register, and pledged themselves
to support all candidates who are
opposed to the Moffett liquor law.

Progress of the n. Orleans Pacific

Mr.. ID. ii. Garland, one Of the civil
engineers connected with the New
Orleans Pacific railroad, arrived in
Alexandria one day last week. He
hailed directly from the scene of
operations at Hufpower bayou,
Avoyelles parish, thirty miles from
Alexandria, where a force of two
hundred men is employed by the
road. Grading is being pushed in
the direction of the Atchafalaya
river, at which point connection
will be made with the Louisiana
Central Stem, or the Boyce grade as
it is generally called. The Lec0mte
road, which will be used by the
New Orleans Pacific, joins the
BOyce Grade sixteen miles from
here. This connection, it is thought,
will be effected by the fifteenth of
next mouth. The Nstchitoches gang
is shaking things up on the other
side of US, and in thirty days from
this time will have completed the
grading to point in the pine hills
which connects with the Alexandria
branch. One hundred men will be
retained to work at Lake Provencal
and the rest Of the gang sent below
to finish, as soon a. possible, the
grading between Alexandra aud
New Orleans, after which the track

THE SPIRIT GUIDE.
By AUGUSTA LARNED.

Far in the realm Of Arctic night,
Where flames the weird auroral light,
And icebergs loom on every hand,
Enchanters Of that lonely land,
The patient, dark-skinned Esquimaux
A little grave shapes in the snow.
And DER the ice-plain, bleak and wild.
The mourning mother bears her child,
In furry garment, softly rolled,
Who neer again shall feel the cold,
And lays him on the icy breast
To take his last and final rest.
And there beside the little mound
The father Stays his feetest hound,
4 creature of unerring skill,
OF keenest scent and docile will,
To trace far haunts of seal and bear
That stock the little ice-hut there.
He lays the faithful beast and brave
Low down beside his baby's grave,
Aud says: The little one will stray
Through night aud darkness far away;
His tender feet have never trod,
And cannot find tho path to God.
Now guide him safe from night and cold
Far out to realms of purest gold,
Where lowry meads and crystal streams
Are smiling in the suns glad beams,
Where rise abodes Of JOY and mi-th
And feasting fills the happy earth
Consoled the parents homeward wend,
And leave their baby to the friend
Who for protection and defense
Has proved gentle Providence,
Sure that the dog so true and wise
viii find the gates of Paradise.
love that would outrun the tomb
And light your darlings through the gloom
simple faith that deems loves care
Can be joy and solace there,

Aud bind the tropics to the pole.

A gentleman who during the war

cences of the late Admiral Scmmes.
The last vessel of the United States

them sou of the then secretary OF

Slldell for mutiny. Semmes com

and while at Vera Cruz she was
capslzed in squall. The loss of the
vessel was source of much satisfac-
ton to all officers of the navy at that
ume. She was very unpopular, OH
account OF the superstitiOns which
existed in regard to her; the men
were constantly deserving, and Off.
GERS were unwilling to be assigned
