Tzar Rom BUD.
I=
A boy stood rear a rose-bush which was
covered with buds and blossoming roses—
with'busy joy he - gazed; now at this rose,
iibw at that; then at a rose leaf, then at a bud.
His father watched him at a distance. lie
stood in the shadowy bower, and with in
ward love and deep emotion, his ey linger ;
ed upon -the darling-of-his-heart. t o not I
feel," he said to Weisel'', "as i divine and
prophetic voice were sperikin to me from
this rose bush, ‘N hich in its bu s and ?lowers
displays to me the emblem of future joys to
the lathers heart. Or what is it that renders
the child so strangely beautiful and dear 'to
me, as he stands thus by the blooming rose
built'?"
Thus spoke the hither. But the boy Wad
not weary of conteMpraiing aiid — watidertng.
Admiration for tht beautiful awakened in
his mind a sense of the True, lle wished
to discover in what manner the blossom de
veloped inrell to the rose. He crossed his
arms upon his breast, and gazed with stead
fast eyes upon the bads. The lather smiled.
I'h-us perhaps do higher beings smile, when
_they behold,a sage npon the earth direct his
aided dyelowards a star, or toward the in
wand garticfbre of a glow-worm.
The hr boy soon found that all his.efiorts
were in vain. lle now plucked a bud, broke
it open, and examined its interior with great
attention. The father then approached hie'
"Upon what do you pOnder so early my
- son ?" Le asked. .
"Oh, Tiny lather," said the - boy, 'll should
so much lire to know how the 'bud cant ives
to become a rose,. and for that reason
plucked tine, and broke it in pieces: But 1
see noth'ng but small, 111-formed leaves, full
of folds and wrinkles. lam sorry now that
I destroyed it."
"It matters not, my son," replied the fath
er. "Nature su p] dies us even to superfluity.
She dots not think merely of our needs, but
also of our pleasures and of our desire for
knowledge. Thou host, at least, learned, that
it Ss not so easy a matter to penetrate her
mysteries."
"Put 1 have grown none the wiser for that ; ''
said the boy.
"Perhaps not," replied the father, ''but
thou hadst, at least, the linneet purpose to in
struct thyself. A good purpose is in itself
something good? The result doer not always
depend upon man. And even when it suc
ceeds; the good intention remains the beet of
A fter a pantie, the boy said with a (.3iffident
curiosityVell, tell ma then, dear lather,
how it rs that the bud forms itself into a

The father then answered—PAly child
can in three words tell thee what happens
the bud increases in size, beauty and grace,
mail it is a complete rose. Mole than this,
know as little' as Ikon lost. Naturo is boun
teous in her gifts, but she conceals the hand
which brings them forth, and reaches thein
to us."
The boy then took up the broken rose bud
again, and salt! to his Lather--"it the bud
can form itself to so beautifill an object,
more beautiful than anything that man can
make, wherefore then can it not motect itself
against the weak huger Ole child? Where
fate can it do so much, and still at the same
tune so-little?"
"Hrucit indeed then formed itself,
helm ?' asked the fatherland he gazed kind.'
ly and earnestly upon the boy. -
• "Oh, I know," replied the child, ''that the
flowers have, as I have a father and mollies,
who cherish, foster and care for them.
"One father is with us all." replied the
boy's father with emoitiorr.•':ft:Bht ~i a see him
not; we feel only his power, -and his love

Thus he spoke. The boy then' was deep

the opposite, for he has publicly declared. his
.Opposition• to the acquisition of new territory.
The; Richinond Southerner has the following
artidle in relation to this subject, which will
go to show the feeliiig thai is fait liecoming
prtidorniriant in the public mild of Virginia.
Virginia, "lhe mother ol.Statim," is destruct]
JOS free, , and when she throwirofl the hien
bus of sldvery, which like the night-mare, is
it;eighir.g her down, and destroying her en
ergies, she will rise again. to the glory and
.dignity of the Ancient (_]ommonwealth :
• .
.The country proposed to be ce.led to us by
the late'treaty with Mexico, it sh uld be re
membered, the Almighty has % ilium Pro.
visoed. Should the tree Slates co sent (and
that they never will) that slavery s II be al
lowed there, Still the climate and country
forbid it. - Why, therefore, shmild we con
tend for that which profiteth us hot—which
we never can possess ? Is it not wi.sdoto
on our part to say to the North, "we be bre
thren;" and if we cannot posses this pepper
( ty on such terms as will be runtuallfagreea
ble, let ha cot-have it at all.' Let us not take
that which must become an_ "apple of-dis
cord" and a "bone of co - mention" to us and
Our successors, and which must end in a sep
[oration of a people whose fatliers have given
us so "goodly a heritage."
And now as to this Slavery question, fel
low-citizens dl the South, let Ifs in good fee
ling reason one with another.. It should be
-remembered-that - Grent Britairairriratift 'Well
slavery in all her colohies; France, .Denmark,
Sweden, and other countries of Europe,'ex
! cept Spain, have ifone eo likewise.- Is it nat
ural to suppose that the other rowers of Eu
rope viill long Buffet imb'eciiii and enfeebled
Spain Ur hold on to -it? When she gives
way i the etith-o civiliied wdild, with the ex
ception.. of Brazil, will be arrayed against us
on this question, . Now what is our policy?
Is it net wisdom-Thu cur part to avoid having
the question of Slavery agitated In our polit ,
ical institutions? -The North has pledged it
self to maintain in fact and: inviolate the
compromises of the Constitution. Let us,
therefore, abandon the acquisition of territo
ky, and nee ourselves from this untoward
difficulty, .
It is not generally known, yet it is neVerthe
lent true, that two-thirds of the people of Virginia
are opeir and undisguised advocates of ridding
the Stale of Slaveryt,and, after the Year Wm,
when• the census is taken, their 'Weivs will be
embodied in-auch form as to startle the South.
We speak understandingly. We_ have, within
the last two years, conversed with. more ;hen
five hundred elave-holders in the State; and four
hundred and fifty out of the five hundred ex
pressed themselves ready to unite in any general
plan to abolish slavery upon almost any terms.—
Abolition fanaticism at the North has not pro
duced this, but the annexation of Texas and the
acquisition of territory have done it. Virginia
may be put down as no longer reliable on this
question. When she goes the Districrof Colum
bia is free territory ; then Delaware and Mary
land will also go, and North. Carolina and Ken•
Aucky will follow suit. This wilt surround the
extreme South with free States; and Whin that
day comes—and it will not be very long—we
would just as leave own a parcel of wild turkeys
as so aunty slaves. We may continue this sub
ject in our next ; certainly we shall further con
sider it,
GEN. TAYLOR'S IIUMANITY.-0110 4 'ol the
most striking characteristics ofGen Titylor is
his universal kindheartedness. Col. Haskell
Tennessee, who was with Gin. Taylor on
the Rio Bravo, tells the following anecdote
of him
"On one occasion, 'den. Taylor was 'des
cending the Rio Grande, on a smelt steam
boat,- with .a large number of discharged sick
soldiers on bbard. The boat being crowded
these poor fellows had - been very uncial
fortably stowed away on the deck, as the
lowest , part of the western steamboat is term.
' e'tl; 'As soon 'as Gen. Taylor ascertained
their condition, he ordered the 'officers, &c.,
out of the cabin, and had the sick melt all
transte:rred to their places. He himself took
Wankel and' gave,up his berth. The night
passed, arid in the mottling there was g good
deal 01 inquiry for Gen. Taylor .but . nobody
could tell where he was. 'At length, one of
the servants in the boat mentioned that a
man was lying wrapped up in a blanket, on
the forecastle. The officers_ repaired _th ither,-
and found are old man truly there, and still
leaked in his honest sleep, with his blanket
wetted and soiled by the slopwater Which

r'e'ly services in Mexico frequently brought
mo near to General Taylor, and I was indli--

presented. I have no motive to deceive you,
and you must take the inimessions I recei

express in the fewest words what manner of
man Gen. Taylof is, I should sa'i that, in his
manners and his appearance, lie is one of the
common people of this country. —He might be

assembly, and he would not remarked
among this ornwil of respectable old farmers
as a man at all distingAislied frdm those a

bits, perfectly plain in his chess, entirely un
assuming in his manners, he appears to be
an old gentleman in fine' health, whose
thoughts are not filmed upon his personal ap
pearance, and who has no point about him
to attract particular attention. In Irisinter
course with men, he is free, frank and
manly; he plays off none of.the airs of some
great men whom I have met, Any one may
approach him as newly as can be desired,
and the more closely his character is eXam
ined the gloater beauties it discloses,
"1, Be is an honest num. C --do riot mean
by that merely that he does not cheat or lie.
I mean that ho he is a roan who never die ,
serriblee l aga who scorns all disguises. He
neither nets a part among his friends for
effect, nor assumes to be what he is not.—
Whenever he speaks you hear what he hon
estly believes; and, 'whether right or wrong,
you feel assurance that he hari expressed--his
real opinion. Ills dealings with mon have
been of the most varied character, and I have
never heard his 'wriest name stained by the

Pike' the meteor : expiies even while you
gaze upon it; by no means possessing that
combination of talent which penetrates in.

its length and bredth as it . by intuition, Gen.
Taylor yet has that order of intellect which
more slowly but quite as surely -masters all

and unmerited attention of the lair daughters

and of ther prompt flinch to the seal of war,
of theiir disappointments arid sufferings, and
of their willingness at any hazard to march
