-4 1 rTINGWORDS. Forget not thy rnaerl she cherished thy youth. And loved thee with tendernessfervor and trnthr She led- thy wealiootsteps with-eiation and-care, And taught thee to lisp forth thy firstmorning prayer. Foraet not thy mother! sad vigils she kept, And knelt by thy . eiide-topray whilst thou slept; W hen sickpons and pain set theirtstamps on thy brow, And robb'd tby"young fice- of ii@ bright healthful glow. Forget not thy mother ! when far, far away, The thought of herfrat-bonr by night--and-by day; How her.heart clung to thee thro' the lapse of long years, When hope sweetly .beam'd mid her bitterest tears. Forget not thy mother! condemn not her deeds, Let her heart be to thee a green spot free from weeds; Magnify her few virtues, her frailties still hide, And be thou the last one to doubt or deride. Forget not thy mother! thy lore should e'er be, Like ocean's broad hillows-unshackled and free; . In life's busy moments, or death's darker hour, Let thoughts of that mother, all others o'er power. Forget not thy mother! unkindness cuts deep A wound made by thee too long open would keep; And remorse, though she hasten'd.ber balm-drops to pour, Could but half heal the bosom all saddened and sore. Be kind to thy mother! let gentle words fall, Ingratitude sends forth its wormwood ard gall; But love blend with duty, rich blessings impart, ' And gilds each recess of the desolate heart. THE DRY GOODS' CLERK. BY THE PALE sTUDENT. Oh! is it not a pleasing life, To be a clerk in a dry-good store- - To laugh away at cre aid strife, And toss new linens o'er and o'er? What matter if oie's eyes are gray- . What boots it if one's hair is light, Oh hath he not the maidens gay To chat to him from morn to night! 'Tis said he works from earlyday Until the clock strikes eight at night: That half his time is thrown away On fair ones who won't buy a mite; But why should he repine at that, - As he keeps tossing cambric o'er ? The ladies all are bless'd with chat, And like the clerks in a dry-good store! The rich man may have jolly times, (Provided*he is free from gout,) If lie knows how td spend his dimet, And hog them when there's rogues about: The student may look wond'rous wiie, And blow in crowds about his lore, But it would fill them with surprise To work awhile in a dry-good store! Now talk no more of this or that Of hunting after jewels rare; Of butcher trade that makes men fat, ' Of farmers breathing country air! They're all a false alluring sham, And will be praised, of course, the more; But there's nothing like the fancy man * Who wins the girls in a dry-good store! RUSSIA AND THE EUSSIANS. The St. Petersburg correspondent of the New York Herald thus speaks of the signs of progress and strength that meet the eye at svery turn in Russia: - This city (St. Petersburg) is in itself a stan ding and triumphant refutation of all the pitiful * and manifold misrepresentations, which hare been so assiduously circulatecd .in relation to everything connected with the country. Its squares,'streets, palaces, quays, churches, monuments, public institutions, and, in short, all in, about, and belonging to it, are on a scale of grand and imposing magnitude which is nowhere else to be found. You are met on all sides, go where you will, with such a sameness of mag nificence that particularization seems almost idle. The-entire absence of wretchedness among the humblest portion of the population has to me, however; lien, above and beyond all else, the highest source of gratification and astonish ment. No such thingas squallid wretchedness exists. In this respet-the most really impoi tant of all-no city, at home or abroad, excep ting, perhaps, Constantinople, will for a moment compare with it. For more thant two mtonths I lhave traversed every portion of St. Petersburg and'the adjacent islands, during all hours of the day and night, and have felt no little humiliation. at'the reflection that despotism should have here * dono so much more for the toiling poor than they have ever yet accomplished for themselv'es. even under our own glorions institutions, which fully empower them to become their own regen erators. There is not a lane,.alley ,or narrow or dirty street in the whole place ; and the cheerful gaiety which throngs and enlivens the gardens, prominent streets, quays and squares, though not to be compared with Paris-the world has, adnever had, but one Paris-is in slriking and pleasing contrast to. the plodding dullness which moves through the thoroughfares of London. I was here, and in several of the other cities and towns of Northern Rossia, for sotme time before peace was ratified, and c-an safely say that if the people or business of the country had been much affected by the war, they must have been in a most gratifying condition before it com menL-ed, and the injury produced must have be. ggmc chronic, as the return of peace has brought. no visible change beyond the general murmur of discontent with which its announcement was at first received. .The Russians-more particularly the men who control the empire-are not enthusiasts 'about mere idle, fruitless glory. They care comparatively little about opinions, and attach but slight importance to anything but results. I was present when the Emperor annotnneed the ratification of pence to the army, in front or the Winter Palatce, and it seemed to fall like a wet blanket upon both the troops and the immense multitude prgsent. - The latter immediately dis persed in sullen silence. The people, who are somewhat slow in get ting into anything, are much dissattisfied with. the termination of h'ostilities, but the knowing ones chuckle quietly over the result. The war has only made Russia fully conscious of her own immense strength and exhaustless resources while at a remarkably cheap cost, it has unfold ed to her all her imperfections and deficiencies, and these-with a wise prudence and practical good sense-she has already earnestly devoted herself to correcting. Never was the advantage which a great proddeing, self-sustaining country possesses in time of war over all others, made more strikingly manifest, and this difference *would have increased with the prolongation of the struggle. Th'le paper portion of the curren . cy remained throughout at par, and specie was instantly obtained, as now, by presenting the notes at the bank. Provisions of every kind were in abundance and exceedingly cheap, and all branches of trade and manufacture-freign commerce alone excepting-prospered with, in -many cases, more thatn their usual activity. Railroads are now about to be constructed to all the leading points of the empire That from this city to Moscow-(over four hundred miles,) which has been in operation for several years, is the finest in world. The country being so level, * offers every facility for that species of communi cation ; and instead of running a road in every direction where there is:a good sized town to tsp, they adopt the sensible plan of carrying them in a direct line and leaving the town to either come to them or give way to new and more en - terprising rivals. The work on the road from Moscow to Warsaw will now be presecuted with the titmost vigor, and those from the for mer place to Odessa, (with a branch to the Crimea,) and to the Caspian sea, by meeting the Volga at Saratou will soon be commenced. When these and others are finished, Russia will have no need of immense naval arsenals ozo the coast, but will.keep them in the interior, where no foreign foe will be likely to trouble them mnueb and anvd the material tirence at amomnt's warning so that little -mdeed-lins been the.gain p,.her opponents. in rendering Sebastopol a a purely commercial port.- -The "neitralzatior of the Blaek.Sea" has bedn -quite as meaningless, for it was, in fact, neutral before the war; and as there is nothing said in the terms of peace about the bea of Azof, the Rneslans are left entirely free to build, 'equip'arid keep as many ships there as they please, and. from -thence float them-down on '"eamels" intolt whenever their presence is required. TEE GREAT ISSUE. The importance of the approaching Presiden tial contest, and the mighty issues involved, ren der it necessary to address the people, North and South, in the spirit of honesty and boldness. We contend that nothing but a simple misun derstanding between the two sections is the cause of our present difficulties, and. this ex plained, Massachusetts and South Carolina can stand upon the same platform. But the real is sues must be met with sincerity,. honesty and courage, and like all dangers, looked boldly and manfully in the face. We afe rapidly approach ing a crisis, the greatest crisis in our hibtory or in. the history of free institutions. The scheme.s (of Eur:pean monarchists, begun half a century ago to-undermine and destroy onr republican system, are now about to be tested, to be expo sed and exploded, or to break up the Union, and with it the last hope of republican freedom. We are no alarmists or Union savers. We have a profound respect for the popular intelli gence, and an undoubting faith in the virtue and patrioti'm of the masses, and on all questions where all alike have the same opportunity to in form themselves, we would not presume to en lighten or to guide others. But on the great sectional question of m-gro slavery, when more than half of the people are ignorant, necessarily ignorant, of the real facts involved, we feel not only authorized, but imperatively impelled, to lay thesefacts before them. There are upwards of a hundred newspapers at the North engaged in the sole, undivided and infamous effort to de bauch the instincts and reason of the people, and lead them into a crusade against the institu tions, the peace, the safety, the very existence of their brethren of the South-to "abolish" the natural relations of races, and obliterating the distinctions of the Almighty, de2rade the twenty millions of white citizens to a hideous and eternally forbidden level with three millions of subordinate negroes. Then there are eight hundred more that pro pose the same end indirectly-to limit " slavery" -to pen up the population of the South-to surround it with a cordon of " free negroistn," and in concert with their British allies and the monarchists of Europe, force by an outside pres sure, the " abolition" of " slavery'-the equality of whites and blacks-the destruction of South ern society, and from inevitable necessity, drag ging down with it the Democratic institutions of the North. Now, it is a most wonderful and lamentable fact, that though there are many patriotic and well-meaning pressezs at the North, ther.e is not one (except this paper) that defends Southern society. Although we have existed seventy years on the present basis and relation of races -though we have been attended with a success hitherto unknown in history-though the twen ty millions of white men of this republic are more virtuous, intelligent and happy than any other twenty millions of their race-though the three millions of inferior negroes are infinitely and inexpressible better iff and . happier than any other portion of their race, and though eve ry man who thinks consecutively for five min utes cannot avoid knowing that to change these relations, and force these negroes up or ourselves down to a common level, no matter how it was done, must be and would be an utter destruction to all concerned-to the negro as well as our selves ; yet, wonderful indeed, there is not a sin gle press in thie whole North that openly and directly avows this condition of things to be right or defends it, except as a temporary, acci dental or perhaps an unavoidable "evil." But we have reached a period in our progreus when he curtain must be drawn aside and the truth spoken-when "slavery" must be understood and the true relations of the races explained to the Northern people-when the lies and impos tures. propagated by the tools of British aristo rats must be exposed and exploded, and peace restored to the nation. This we propose to do. We intend to call things by their right names to show that the system of thu South is the normal condition of the negro, and no slavery at all-that It is humane and benificent ; in short, the natural relation of the races, which must be preserved as a question of humanity to the ne gro and as vital to the manhood and freedom of the white man. And we confidently appeal to the patriotism of true men and honest Demo rats all over, North and South, East and West, to sustain us and aid us in this glorious work. The Day Book has now n large circulation, but it should have a million of readers, not on the sore of literary ability of any kind, but because it is dealing with the most momentous truths that ever interested the human intellect, and a knowledge of which, by the Northern masses, is absolutely and immediately essential to the safety of our institutions. Since January last we have received -over 14,000 voluntary subscribers, gi increase wholly without parallel in newspaper hitory, and an overwhelming demonstration that the great heart of the people is sound to thme core, and only needs to be appealed to to drive the abolition treason from the land, and to bury the abolition traitors ini the profoundest depths of the popu lar contempt and indignation.-New York Day Book. SIGNIFICANT FACT.-We deem worthy of more especial notice than was had in the pro eedings of the meeting of the Kansas Associa tion of this District, held on Saleday last, the f.ct that William Ellison, a colored man, and a resident of Statesburg, in this district, contribu ted, on that day, the sum of one hundred dol lars to the fund~s of the association. Betoken ing a generous and liberal spirit, it also gave evidence of the estimation and esteem in wvhich are held by him our sectional interests and in stitutions, and of his readiness to defend, with his money, the common cause of thie South. Ellis-on, 'once a slave, but now a slaveholder, has, entirely by his own industry, attained his present state of prosperity, and, wve might samy. wealth, he being the possessor of a large and prductive cotton platntation. WVe are pleased to see such a manifestation, from such an one, for such a cause. Th~e exam ple too, even from such a source, is worthy the imitation of those whose superior means and intellect rendler them not only tmore able to give, but to discern more clearly the necessity of giving, and giving liberally, to thzis cause. Sumterville Watchman. DEATH FRO)I THE BITE OF A RATTLE-SNAKE. The Savannah Georgian of Wednesday last says: Gentlemen arrived from Bulloch county last evening, inform us that Mr. Hnnry Davis, jr., a gentleman residing in that county, wan bit by a rattle-snake, wvhile walking a few hundred yards fromn his house, yesterday, and died from its ef fets. He was bitten in the forenoon, and was not found for some time after, when lie was so near death as to render all retmedies unavailable. After lie was bitten he corded his leg with his suspenders, and then killed the reptile. He proceeded towards his house a short dis tance, and finding that lie could go no further, hung his hat upon a bush and lay down, where he was found. He was much respected, and has Lft a wife and some live or six children, and numerous friends to mourn his loss. A curious trial took place recently at a Rhen ish tribunal, Germany. A man possessed some nut trees, of which the branches hung over the ground of a neighbor, who picked up the ripe nuts that fell from the tree, anrd also broke some branches. For this the latter was prosecuted for theft and trespass but acquitted on the ground that lie was entitled to profit by the fruit grow ing over his property. Appeal was made from this det-ission, and the judgment reversed by the superior tribunal, because the principles of civil law ordain that mil fruit and bratiches belong to the item, and the stem to him upon whose ground it is planted, and that the right of prop erty of the latter does not cease with the-exten sion over neighbors' ground, no matter how far this extension.- The accused was consequently comtemzwd on both coants. MOURNED HIs OwN DEATiK.--n a book just published descriptive of scenes among the Indians inthe early timei of the. North west, the following ludicrous incident is told: " A little drunken Indian, named by the French people around, "Old Boilvin," Trom his rersemblance to an Indian agent of that name. at-Prairie du Chien, was the person on account of whose death the application was made." " He had- been fishing,' they said, " on the shores of one of the little lakes near the Portage, and having takei a little too much ' whiskee,' had fallen into the wa ter and.been drowned." Nothing of him had been fourd but his blanket on the bank, so there could be no funeral ceremonies, but they were prepared to make a great lamen tation about him. " There was no diffielty, notwithstanding the stringent prohibitions on the subject, ini procuring a keg of whiskey from some of the traders who yet remained; so, armed with that and their other treasures, they as sembled at an appointed spot, not far from the scene of the catastrophe, and sitting down- with the keg in their midst, they com menced their affliction. The morAhey drank, the. more clamorous became their grief, and the faster flowed their tears. " In the midst of these demonstrations, a little figure, bent and staggering, covered with mud and all in disorder, with a -coun tenance full of wonder and sympathy, ap. proached them and began: Why, what's the matter? W ho's dead ?" Who! dead I" repeated they, looking up in astonishment, " why you're dead! you were drowned in Swan Lake!.. Did we not find your blankot there ? Come, sit down and help us mourn." " The old man did not wait for a second invitation. He took his seat and ctied and drank with the rest, weeping and lamenting as bitterly as any of them, and the strange scene was continued as long as they had power to articulate, or any portion of the whiskey was left." TiE PRETTY WIoow.-A pretty little widow dwelleth in a little street, and she has a pair of pretty eyes, and two pretty little feet. No matter what her name is, or the number of the house-'s a mighty pretty widow, a perfect little mouse. The rose and lily plended live upon her dimpledcheek, and her lips give them expression-oh! so lovely and so meek. Her hands are white and tender, but her wooers sadly fear that she'll get them stained and tainted up, by handling lager beer. A LAWYER'S IPPEAL.-' rhe thunder roared, the clouds were black, the moon shown brigt, the stars winked, the sky was a complete web, gentlemen of the jury, of darkling darkness on that night; and yet this man did, with malice of forethought, steal forth into the shades of a lonely farrmer 's house, and then and there maliciously poi soned a brindle, yaller dog.-Convict him of manslaughter in the first degree, and the prayers of a nation are yours !" A punster happened in one of the banks the other day just as the worthy cashier wvas running up, with his accustomed celeri ty and correctness, a very long column of figures. The waggish visitor saw the sunm completed, and then remarked to the sfiicial with a grave face : " B-, I understand they talk of sending you to the World's Fair as a specimen of the American adder." A GOOD Hrr.-WVe find the following in an Ohio paper: " Yesterday the Senate pas sed a bill imposing penalties of from five to fifty dollars upon distillers who -should per. mit their hog-pens to become so unclean-as to be offensive in their vicinity. When the bill was upon its passage, Mr. Brown re marked he must be permitted to express his suprise that the L. gislature should attempt to remove the lesser nuissance, the hog-piens, while thep permitted the distillery to remain !"

''An' is O'Flagerty yer name I" said Paddy to his new-made acquaintanice. "Sure, I l:new twd6 ould maids in Tipperary uv that name--but they- weren't yer mother at all, was they 1" WVar should the American party feel sure of successi Because they have filled many offices, and are nowv hound to Fillmore.
