At lier feet three lovers knelt; Each adored the widow much, Each essayed her heart to touch ; One had wit, and one had gold. One was cast in beauty's tuould; Guess which was it won the prize, Tongue, or purse, or handsome eyes ? First began the handsome inau, * O ' a.. Peeping proudly o'er her fau; Red his lip and white his chin, v t Could such beauty fail to win ? Then steppe^ forth tlie man of gold, '. Cash he counted, coin he told; . . . .Wealth tho burden of his tale, . Could such golden projects fail?. r'Then the man of wit and sense ir^uoeu'lier t.ithlife etoqatbees- Now she heard him with a sigh, Then she blushed, scarce knowing why . Then she smiled to bear him speak, ---Tijwn tear wus-oiiber cheeky Beauty, vanish; gold depart, Wit hath won the widow's heart. MtSCKULASTEp US. ^ 1 . From the Editiinuc-h Fetes. - ? British Slavery. There are certain capitalists in tin's country, who must feci atuused at the public indignation and abhorenee occasionally manifested on the subject of American slavery, well knowing that .there is tit the very midst of its a slavery even more hideous and sickening. Probably the worst and nnist heary-rending tcntnrc of trans- ; - uthnitic bondage ,is the sale a^d consequent.' j&pamioti of the individual members of lamitearing tin, wife from tlie husband, the ?f$yp -child from the parent, the brothers from esters, $55"' -> .inner more to meet again on earth. This im*' spiles terrible lieart agony to-tlic poorivtiins, . , .?argJ the more so that, hai ring his eiisiaw.-d con ' -.j^jliojj, the negro slave of America is in gei.er'-atsbetter off-than the liritish bondsman. 'lhe ' ' tiegro generally is not overlooked, is well fed ju.ii cared lor, and families frequently gr?ov up amidst nil the comfortable endearments oi a comparatively happy libme, lloin which even the consolations oi our blessed religion are not ^ < excluded. Jt is in the incidents ot American ' - -* - '...till-i.e h. : Slavery mat us more ivuiun^ iviitui^ ?uv. iu . i bo found. A kind master dies, and bis slaves ! ijrte dispersed bv sale ; or it may bo tbat some iagistors arc not so kind as otiiors, wbilo some'; .'uttinin may bo crncl and oppressive. J bit one toyrcat siiojynafd of the nvgio, even with tlio . worst master, is that which wo eonsidor his ^greatest misfortune. It is because his body is tne property ol his. master that lie is protected j ifrom the fearful atrocities to which the liritisli | slave is exposed. 'J his body of the negroj : means so many hard dollars, and any deprer < elation in the live commodity means a loss of -capital, as well as of present return from labor. it_ts. thus the pecuniary interest of even tne WW slave owner in America, to treat his slaves j well. In this country the slave employer has j no such interest, and the poor slave no such j protection. On the contrary, it is the liritisli j ^ master's interest and practice yj wear out the j BWMBT ..... i. mfejuckiv as Vissibie.

Are wo. exaggerating ? Uur readers will be able to judge presently. 'Ilie atrocities we are now to Ming under their notice were recently disclosed in evidence before a Commissioner appointed by the Queen to inquire into their existence.? They are at tins moment in full operation, ami will continue to be so until humanity steps forward to rescue the victims of a Ion! lust, and i * of political economy. The scene of these atrocities is in the bleaching and dyeing works throughout tile country, it is suggestive of a j "hastiy pun, but ot horrible reality, lor the poor victims soon blanch and die under their, inliu- J man treatment. How will tender mothers ! feel, what will affectionate fathers think, when [ they are told that multitudes of children, from 1 the age of nine years and upwards, are obliged I to work daily from lb" to 20 hours out of the j i'4 ; that that period of labor is often exceeded, some of the victims, male and female, not over 17 years of a^re,giving evidence that they have worked 23 hours out of the 24, w ith only sulheicnt interval to swallow a hasty meal, then to sleep on a "hooking-Lox" at half-past live in the morning for not quite two hours, k then half an imtir lor orcuKiasi, ami at W'Ofk ! One hoy stated that lie once worked three days and three nights, sleeping only at meal times, and eating his meals while standing at work. And this, l>e it observed, was the experience of many other children as well as adults. The foreman of one establishment stated that .in what are called "the clapping room-." voung ' .Imivs and girls are made to work from !U t? IS hours a day, with the thermometer rio ging j from 100 to 150 degrees, the heat being sometimes even greater. To realize such a horrible .atrocity one has only to know that that Imat is ja>t thirty degrees above the heat of an Italian summer. Une medical gentleman, in order to list the effect of this heat nj on himself, undressed in an adjoining cold room, then went into one oi the rooms where the heat was only 11!) degrees, ami in half a minute the perspiration, or rather the hot water, poured Horn Ids body and drenched the floor around him. After remaining here tor 15 minutes, the In-at of his body w as 1 oo dcgrccss, w hile his pulse beat ltili times in a minute. tie then went into another of the room-, .vlicfe the heat was 1 del degrees, and after re maining there ai:?-lIiit quarter of at: hour, the ui ills p:ii?e HK'li'iK'1!.

Little children arc kept awake by the loriyuati shouting or tapping a large hoard ; on tlie tahie, "making a loud report that used to startle them, and," the witness proceeds, "I jjjga onh! keep them awake then f??t an hour, or BB jiiiore than that, pcrh?|i$, by frightening tin-til!" fi?

To overwork or ill-treat a | horse is a crime, and justly punished l.y a lot j inane law.
