KaJ" For announcing a candidate, Five Dollars in advance. Advice from Webster. In a notice ot the funeral of Senator Fess&nden, a writer in the Portland Argus, concludes as follows:. Some thirty-tive years ago?and perhaps more?Daniel Webster contemplated a journey to our Western Statesand Terri? tories which he had never visited. .The great statesman felt inclined to have some tallenhed young man to accompany him, and in iooking over New England for Btich a companion his attention was at? tracted to young Fossenden, and Ire ex? tended to him an invitation to travel with him. The young man gladly accepted the invitation, for he was ambitious and felt that it wuuld be an honor as well as a:n advantage, to accompany in his journoy ings-such a-man as Daniel Webster, whose fame, both a*.a lawyer and as a statesman, was fast booming up before the American people, if it had not already reached its height. Young Fossenden did.aceompany him, and never had cause to regret it. Many a time and often has the young man told us how he enjoyed the journey, and what advantages he derived from it; for Mr. Webster treated him with great kindness, and gave him much good advioe which he treasured up in.his-.memory. Webster told him how hard: he had stud-< ied, and bowcarefal he was in.making out papers when he commenced, the- practice of law. He said he never let a. writ or other legal document pass from his-hands until he had read them over three times at least. And he further remarked that while many young men wer.e idlingawaj their time he was trimming the-midnight lamp. 1 Now," said Webster,."I have acquired some fame both as a Iavuy ar and an orator, and have made speeches in which have occurred some figures and illustrations-of ten quoted, and which have already pass? ed into mottoes. And now, do you sup? pose these terse sayings were made from the spur of the moment? By no means; -they wore the result of previous study? and close study too. Some of ray best il? lustrations of thought have been studied and trimmed down when the fishing-rod was in my hands. The words- which so fitly represent England's power, so often quoted and so much praised, were strung together while 1 stood on the American hide of the St. Lawrenco River, near Ni? agara Falls, and heard the British drums beating on the Canada side." Many other statements he made to young Fessenden which we recollect, but which wo have not space to make a record of now, all of which prove very conclu? sively that there is no ro}*al road to learn ing. Young Fessenden has often told the writer that his journeying with Daniel We'?ster was the best school he ever at? tended ; and the lessons he received from that great man were ne*er forgotten; hence wo come to the conclusion "that William Pitt Fessetiden was a harder stu? dent than many have supposed him to bo. It is not too much to say, perhaps, that his Keen logic, his terse language, his pow? er of condensation, his clear statements a ui sharpness in debate may be traced to the lesson* which Webster gave him while journeying with him to the West. Young men who are ambitious to excel in their professions will do well to make a.note of these things, and govern themselves ac? cordingly. -*. Editorial Courtesy;.?In theso degen orat-e times we are glad to come across something so refreshing as the following from an editorial in the Mobile Register. It has the ring of the genuine metal: The editor of the Mobile Tribune con? fesses to lh?v opinion that a gentleman may say things in print under license of Uie editorial "we," which to say in pro? prio, persona, would bo violative ot the rules of courtesy and propriety. We do not agree with him, for the reason that we cannot conceive of any circumstances to reconcile a gentleman to even momen? tarily torgetting himself and throwing off bis true character. In fact, the manners and h:ibits of gentlemanly courtesy can? not be cast aside like a garment and re? sumed at pleasure. These habits arc not only innate, but ingrained, and cannot be torn away without a painful shock. In old countries?where different customs and rules Irom our own prevail?there is finch a thing as the "impersonality" of the Press. The Pickwickian 3tyle of editorial abuse cannot well obtain in Southern atmos? phere. Who can tell, indeod, where the dividing line is, where the license ends, and where the personal responsibility be? gins? It would surely cause our neighbor t? question the soundness of his own po? sition were another to denounce him as a thwf, a liar and scoundrel, and add all this iftonly meant in a Pickwickian and editorial sense. His doctrine would debar him from taking offence. The fafe rule ie to hold, "once a gentleman, always a gentleman," and the essence of the gen? tlemanly character is that gentleness for the feelings of others which expresses it fSelf in the chivalrous word "courtesy." That that is the most agreeablo style, both to the profession and their readers, as it is the most knightly and dignified, there can bo no question. Wo can then say, "Let un have peace." -4p ? The following conversation occurred between a graceless boy and his teacher : '-What does your father do when ho sets down at the table ?' 'He asks for the brandy bottle.' -I don't mean that. Well, then, what does your mother do when you sit down at tho table?' 'She says she will wring our necks it we spill any greaso on the floor.' -o-. ? A gentleman who had been struck by a lady's beauty has determined to fol? low the injunction, and "kiss the rod that smote iiiuiv" Sunday Morning. How many ploasant breakfast tables it looks down upon. No need to hurry away to office, or store, or counting-room. Fathers come leisurely down in dressing gown and slippers, and sip their coffee without danger of choking. They have time to look round and see how tall the children are growing, and that nothing in this world is so beautiful as a rosy baby fresh from slumber. Mother, too, has the old girlish smilo that comes not often on a week day, for if it does, father has not time to notice it, and that, perhaps, after all, is the reason it comes so seldom. It is pleasant, after eggs and coffee, to sit comfortably down by the fire, the cen? ter of a ring of happy faces, and hear the church bells cliimo. Time enough yet to go, for this is the first bell. Church bells aro not, to my ear, "au impertinence." One is a free agent. I am free to go,, which I like to do; you aro free to stay, if you prefer ; though I may think you make a mistake. I don't say that I Bhould go every Sunday to hear a man- who was always binding doc? trines together like bundles of dry sticks, and thrusting them at his yawning hear? ers. 1 want to hear a sermon that any poor soul who straggles into church frcm any by-lane or alley, can understand, and carry homo with him to his cellar or gar? ret ; not a sermon that comes on chariot wheels, but afoot, and with a warm life? like grasp for every honest?aye, and dis? honest?hand in the assembly, defaulter or Magdalen ; for who bade you slam Heaven's gate in their faces? I want a human sermon. I don't care what Melehisedek, or Zerubbabel, or Ke renhappuk did, ages ago; I want to know what 1 am to doj and I .want somebody besides a theological bookworm to tell me?somebody who is sometimes tempted and tried,.and is not too dignified to own it; somebody like me, who is always sin? ning and repenting; somebody who is glad and sorry, and cries and laughs, and eats and drinks, and wants to fight when they are trodden on?and don't. That's the minister for me. I don't want a spiritual abstraction, with stony eyes and petrified fingers, and no blood to battle with. What credit is it to him to be proper? How can ho understand me? Were there only such ministers in the pulpit, I wouldn't go to church either, be causo my impatient feet would only beat a tattoo on the pew floor till service was "over; but thank God thero are! and while they preach I shall go and hear them, and come homo better and happier for having done it. So I pray you don't abolish my Sun? day, whatever you may do with yours. Don't take away my blessed Sunday breakfast, when wo all have time to lovo one another. Don't take away the Sabbath .bells, which I so love to hear. Don't take away my human minister, whose God is no tyrant, and is better pleased tc see us go smiling home from church, than bowing our heads like a bulrush, and igroaning back to our dinners, till all you anti-Sabbatarians aro mad to abolish Sun? day?and no wonder. Fanny Fern. A Truthful Sketch.?Let a man fail in business, what a wonderful effect it has on his former creditors ! Men who have taken him by the arm, laughed and ichatted with him by tho hour, shrug up their shoulders and pass on with a child? hood, "How do 3'ou do !" Every trifle of a bill is hunted up and presented that "would not have seen light for months to come but for the misfortune of the debt? or. If it is paid, well and good; if not, the scowl of the sheriff, perhaps, meets him at the corner. A man that has nev? er failed knows but littlo of human na? ture. In prosperity he sails along gent? ly, wafted by favoring smiles and kind : words from everj'body. He prides him? self on his name and spotless character, and makes his boast that ho has not an enemy in the world. Alas ! the change. He looks to the world in a difforent light when the reverses come upon him. He j reads suspicion on every brow. Ho hard? ly knows how to move?or do this thing or the other, for there are spies about him, and a writ is ready for his back. To understand what kind of stuff the world is mado of, a person must be unfortunate and stop payment onco in his lifetime. If he has kind friends then thej' aro mado manifest. A failure is a moral servo; it brings out the wheat and shows tho chaff. A man thus learns that words and pre? tended good-will does not constituto real friendship. -<t, Faith And Works.?Two- gentlemen were one day crossing a river in a fer? ry boat. A dispute about faith and works arose, one saying that good works wero of small importance and that faith was everything; the other asserting the contrary. Not being able to convince each other, the ferryman, an enlightened Christian, asked permission to give his opinion. Conseni being granted, ho said, "I hold in my hand two oars. That in my right hand I call faith ; tho other, in my leit, works. Now, gentlemen, please to observo; I pull tho oar of faith and pull alone. See! the boat goes round and round, and makes no progress. I do tho same thing with the oar of works, and with precisely similar result?no advance Mark! I pull both together, wo go on apace and in a very few moments we shall be at our landing place. So, in my hum? ble opinion," ho added, ''faith without works, or works without faith, will not suflieo. Let there bo both, and tho ha? ven of otcrnal rest is sure to bo reached." --o ? There was a clergyman who often bocamo quite voxod at finding his littlo grandchildren in his study. One day ono of theso littlo children was standing by his mother's side, and 6hc was speaking to him of heaven. "Ma," said he, "I don't want to go to heaven." "Don't want to go to heaven, my son ?" "No, ma, I'm suro I don't." "Why not, my son ?*? "Why, grandpapa will be thero, won't he?" "Why, yes, I hope ho will." "Well, just as soon as ho sees us he will came scolding along, and Bay, 'Whew! whew! whew! what aro these boys hero for?'" Hope.?Hope is the sweetest friond that ever kept distressed friends company; it beguiles tho tcdiousnoss of tho way, and tho miseries of our pilgrimage. It tells the soul sweet stories of tho succeeding joys ; what comfort thero is in heaven ; what peace, what joy, what triumph, what marriage songs and hallelujahs there are in that country, whither she is traveling, that she goes merrily away with her pres? ent burden. False Rumors.?In the New York Times, of October 3rd, we note an exceed? ingly graphic, exhaustive and impartial review of the great gold panic which re? cently convulsed Wall street, and became a world-wido sensation. Among other paragraphs which arrested our attention, this is not tho least opportune and well delivered. Speaking of tho false rumors engendered by tho panic, tho Times says: During tho past week the rumors which have laeen in circulation on the street have boon among tho wildest imaginable. A whisper of suspicion as to-the stability of a house would instantly be magnified into a report that it was tottering on the verge of ruin, and then that it had gone under entirely. Many of tho reporters for the press havo not been oareful to investigate the reliability of statements which they heard, and would take all that came to their ears as the truth, without stopping to reflect ?pon tho mischief they were making by aiding in the circulation of these stories. At no time should greater care be exercised in giving credenoo to damaging rumors than during periods of excitement such as this through which we havo just passed. During tho week a Memphis journal contained a Now York dispatch to the effect that the house of Hoyt & Gardner was involved in the gen? eral catastrophe. The statement was news to this firm, who havo passed thiough the crisis unscathed, and though it does not injure their credit, is annoying. -4P ' Weeping at Adam's Tomb.?In Judea there is a tomb which tho monks, who bavo it in charge, aver is the one in which Adam, the father and head of the human raco is buried. Mark Twain p&kl a visit to it during his Eastern travels, and thus records his emotions at tho sacred spot: The tomb of Adam ! How touching it was, here in a land" of strangers, faraway from home, and friends, and all who cared for me, thus to discover the grave of a blood relation. True, a distant one, but still a re!at:on. The unerring instinct of nature thrilled its relation. The fountain of my filial affection was stirred to its profonndest depts and I gave way to tu? multuous emotion. I leaned upon a pil? lar and burst into tears. I deem it no shame to havo wept over the grave of my poor dead relative. Let him who would sneer at my emotion close this volume here, for he will find little to his taste in my journeying8 through the Holy Land. Noble old man?he did not live to see mo, he did not live to see his child. And I ? alas, I did not live to see him. Weighed down by sorrow and disappointment, he died before I was born?six thousands brief summers before I was born. But let us try and bear it with fortitude. Let us trust that ho is better off whero he is. ? A gentleman residing some miles from the city, says an exchange, has been in the habit frequently of sending his wait? ing boy with the buggy back homo, with the following message: "Tell my wife I'm caught on that d?d jury again." H?s wifo to be sure, little suspected that the jury wero a set of boon companions bent on a "high old time,'' and the determina? tion not to "go home till morning." A few days since be sent said waiter-boy to town after some necessary articles. The boy fell in with his friends, got elevated and top heavy and pitched out of tho bug? gy. Tho horse and buggy arrived home all right, but tho boy did not make his ap? pearance until next day. With stern countenance our juryman called the boy up and demanded why he did not come up at the proper time. "Fore God, Mas sa, I was cotched on de d?d jury !" ? I bed a friend whose name it wuz Brown, who wuz given to indulgence in the flowin bole to a fearful extent. Wun nite he attempted to bo convivyel on a now brand uv whisky, and it floored him. At 11 p. m. I found him clingin to a lamp poet and vomitin ez tho ther wuz a minatoor earthquake in bis insides. "Brown !" remarked I, laying my hand effectionately on his shoulder, "Brown are you sick?'* "Sick! sick 1" replied he, swinging around to tho other side uv the post, and discharginanotheravalanch. "Sick! h?It do you think I'm doing this for the fun uv the thing?" ? A man who works with a will?tho Probate Judge. ? The first line of telegraph in America was constructed between Washington and Baltimore in I the spring of 1844, through aid furnished by the Government. The results of its action were so unsatisfactory that the Postmaster-General in a . subsequent report, expressed the opinion that the revenue therefrom could never be made equal to the expenditures under any rate of charges which might be adopted. Now the territory of the tele? graph embraces the entire civilized portion of the continent, and the Western Union Company, under which corporate title the great majority of the telegraph lines in the States are united, works 52,009 miles of line, and 104,584 ?lies of wire. ? In a divorce case heard at Chester, Judge Thoman sustained a plea to the jurisdiction of the Court. He bases his decision principally upon the present imperfection of the divorce law, and is emphatic in his declaration that the words of the Constitution, Article XIV, Section 5, "Divorces from the bonds of matrimony shall not be allowed but by a judgment of a Court, as shall be prescri? bed by law," means simply this, that until fur? ther legislation takes place, he is not authorized, in the face of authority and precedent, to decide upon BO grave a queston affirmatively.
