Some people think babiett do good in the world, but only live here tolorment these who want to have quiet and order.. Ent ,I think they are real missionaries, making others better by their smiles,, and lifting heavy loads of care off many hearts by their artless ways. Well, years and years ago, when there were few cars and when people had to jolt over shocking roads in 'great lumbering stage-teaches, the circumstance I am "going to tell took place. I can remember the time well. I assure: you 'it - was no 'holiday siert to :go " out West," as people then called a good part of New York State. It would not do for delicate folks to travel then There were. Very' fe w •wedding tours. But of this journey l The evening coach was full—" so full that it was Au imposition on the passengers"—so said'-Miss Trimnieri Who, with' two - or three pattern hats and a box of artificial flowers, was the last one to enter, notwithstanding the inconvenience to which she put her Tel. low passengers. The village squire never "no Amiable— was returning from the court, where he had been nonsuited in a ease involving about a fiftieth part of his estate; of coarse he Was, morose and impatient. A worn-looking woman was "trying to quiet a restless baby by 'tossing it up whew - , there- was :not room, to toss a bird, because a simpering school girl on the next seat had whispered aloud to her very young gallant, 64 babies were a perfect nuisance in a stage-coach, and that she should think any one would rather stay at home than travel with one. Poor ! un fortunate baby; poor, sensitive, widowed mother Theirs was no pleasure trip; they were going, uncertain of a welcoine,to a rich relative of the newly dead, ,the only one on earth of whom they could'ask aid. - Comfort or pity the mother did not look for. It was between these and the surly squire that Miss Trimmer insetted herself. At the cruel remark of the incipient belle, the widow turned her head to wipe away a tear, when her innocent half-yearling grasped with her plump hind .a . huge bunch of honey-suckles and carnation pinks which dangled;from the near Erne of Miss Trimmer's bonnet. " Will no one take pity on me ?" shrieked the bearer of the flower burden. " Will no gentleman shield me from such annoyances.? " Yes, madam, I will, answered an old gentleman who sat in a corner, resting his shin upon the ivory_ head of his cane 4 The lady was soon safely installed in the seat farthest removed from the vicious baby, and the old man in her plebe. Now this cramped up baby was's perfect democrat: She did not know that she was poor and fatherless ; nor that, *hen he lived, her father was only a hard-working briuklayer. She knew - noi thing of all this, and seemed,to think she had as good a right to shout and crow as any other baby, and to pull flowers out of bon nets, too, if 440 COVici only. reach them. So at the newcomer she went. Her first effort was to secure his white , beard, but that was. immovable. She next reached out her hand for the seals, 'and laetly grasped the cane. " Well, little inch," cried the, dear old man, "if you want to get at my Seals, you had. better come a little nearer,". So, he took the willing baby,from the weary mother and installed her: on , own, knee. The poor woman straightened herself and drew a long breath, as if relieved from a burden she had not strength to bear. "You look tired, madam ; have you come far to-day ?" asked the merciful man. " I've held the baby, air, thirty-six hours in the cars before I got into the coach," she answered with a quivering lip. "1 don't see 'how any one can take care of a tiresome - baby," again whispered the little " Somebody held us all once, and took care of us, too, my child," replied the old. gentleman, whose ears were too keen to lose her remark. " Children must be taken care of ; they have their work to do, and they generally do it faithfully." And he rattled his seals and key again for the happy child. The poor mother cast a look of unmingled gratitude on her benefactor--yes, benefactor he was, though he had never given her a crust nor a copper; for kind words are often better than either. This good man alone, of all the passengers—save the unconsciotis baby—seemed at his ease. At length the horses stood still, and, all seemed pleased at the prospect of having the company thinned. Miss Trimmer looked hopefully at the widow and baby, but they did not move. An anxious, care-worn gen tleman began to unwedge himself prepara tory to alighting. Then in the deepening twilight there bounded from the dwelling, beside which the coach had halted, a curly heatlA boy of four years. '0 ! pa, pa,' he shouted, as the`paternal heradiemerged from the coach door, I've good news for you ; you can't < guess what has happened to-day.' And clapping his chubby hands and dancing for joy, he exclaimed; 6 0, papa, the baby's got a tooth ! ' There was a sudden revulsion of feeling in the coach. The passengers all laughed heartily at the vast importance of the news from that little world, home. Miss Trimmer put her head out of the coach win dow and exclaimed; 4 What a darling little fellow ! ' The coachman forgot to crack his whip for a whole minute as he gazed, at the happy boy. The father turned round, smiled, raised his hat, and said "good by to his fellow-travelers. The surly squire laughed and drew home his feet, which had all the way been stretched out on the widow's terri tory, to her great inconvenience, saying, " Beg your pardon? ma'am." Even Miss Trimmer was softened; for she opened the cover of her reticule and gave the offending baby a stick of candy, saying, "Poor thing, she must have something to amuse her." "Well," cried the laughiniiehool girl, "I do love children, after all—they are so`funny I can't help it ! " " Never try to help it, child," said the baby's benefactor. "They ought to be loved, for they do a great deal for us grown folks. Now don't you see that rosy boy, with the news . ,c,f the great acquisition to his family treasures—a tooth forthe baby—has changed a coach-full of anxious and ill:tempered peo ple into a cheeriful and even kind-hearted company ? Don't you see how he has made friends for my little companion here who is too young to speak for herself? Why, we are all better now for riding with this little one, and my word for 'it you'll think of her after you go hoine toe." Then, turning to the widow, he asked her to whose }tense she was going.. When she answered , him, he said, Oh, it ' s_ too far to ride to-night with the poor tired baby; stop, and with us ; grandmother will give even a strange'baby welcome, for we've just buried' our pet 'at home—my daughter's little one. • She made the house very cheerful fOr its,'hut ihe i s gone; but not forgotten ! .No, I believe grandmo ther loves all babies better shice she ; so don't be afraid of intruding." • MOved-by toldkindness, the widow, in an undertone ttild her painful errand to her new friend. " Ah, al!" he said; " well your relatiVe is a kind man, if you 'go at him jnst the right way, and folks say I know how to manage him as well as anyhody., In the xneriiingl'll drive you whir there; itrid present yo if ease in the most judicious manner. Never fear Ile i ".11 be kind to. you-,; , so lteepa .good, heart, my poor friend.' Overcome by, such. nnlooked.-for kindness, she wept out the tears which had all day been gathering in their fountain under the cold look and sarcastic words of those around her. -„Mise Trimmer, who, , when not in a hufrirni" a croid, was really a kirid-hearied girl looked compassionately at the Saint effort the young widow had made towards wearing black for the dead. " Won't you call at my shop with.the lady, as,you go, by ~in the morn ing, Mr. Bond ? she asked; `"`l 'should like to speak with her: and again, she glanced at the straw hat with its band of thin black ribbon, with an expression which promised a new one. " are„in:y friend," cried the old man, as the coach stopped before an old brown mansion, "and there is grandmother in the door waiting for us." The little belle offered ter hold the baby , while the mother alighted, and the softened squire handed out her carpet-bag and basket. " Good night " —crack went the whip—and the cheerful travellers rede on to their homes. Light and warmth and a cordial welcome for the night, and prosperity on the morrow awaited the lonely widow, " and all," so said her noble friend, ",because a baby ha&a, tooth, and his little brother `told of it !"--:Frorn, "Maple Hill." TRUE WORRY. The boy who by aceident or design com mits injury and runs away, to'escape respon sibility is 4.covwc.l, and yet, there, are, too many whai dire not meet the' comequettCes* of their actions. In marked and noble con trast:with such cowardice is the truecourage: exhibited in the following cases_: A little boy, the son of an artisan, who reside's in one of the villages in the neigh:: , borhood of Halifax, was one day amusing 'himself with bowling a round stone*-a very common amusement among the juveniles in that locality—When it'chanced against the edge of a slightly' elevatedlag :. stone in front of a cottage, bounded window, and broke a pain of glass:*- The tenant, a working man, who . hanpcned t tiqe then in the' house, imMediately ran ont,and seeing no one near but ; the boy, who , vas looking at the damage he_ had occasioned, askedlitd 'wtte had broken the window: " I did," answered the fellow," but Twill pay for it ;" and then he told how it happen ed. The man was for a short time speechless with astonishment at the fearless honesty of the boy, and on recoveringliinielf, he said, "But you shall not pay for the window, for as,yOu haie noitheirifn (Otay _nor: told nke lie to save yourself, I will pay one half of the expense," and so he did.

The resolutions, which it is proposed to introdnce are in exact accor dance with my sentiments, It is clearly the duty 'of 'everycitizen, sailor and soldier" to give to the Government, his unconditional and most effective support'. A conditional support is full of discord dan-. ger and disaster, and, at a time like the pre sent, amounts to. disloyalty. In view of .all the resources with which. God. has blessed us, it would be ignominious to believe ,that we have not the,physical ability to maintain the Government, when we remember that we are fighting to sustain a Government that origi nated in truth, justice, honor and patriotism, against a Rebellion that originated in deceit, fraud, ambition and ignorance.

Our legislators should be made to feel that they misrepresent us when they attempt to clog the wheels of Government or indulge in party legislation. Politics and party lines should be ignored for the present. Fraudu lent contractors and dishonest disbursing officers should be punished. Officers and soldiers should be subordinate, patriotic, energetic and free from all personal ambition. The law of Congress making every man a soldier who is capable of bearing arms should be enforced and Submitted to. The old regi ments should be" kept full, and promotions Made froth soldiers and officers in the field for merit. The President, and *Governors should -al ways be surrounded by honest, loyal and.pa triotie men; capable of giving advice in their several Npartments. The press should be temperate .and 'independent.

There is a fWct inthe life of Mr. Calhoun • ? remarkable in.ltsele, and in the highest degree pertinentto the point we are now illustrating, that` recently came to the:; knowledge :bf the writerbf this article, and thiiugh ,no public announcementiof it may have . eier,' before this {been made, yet of its truthfulness there Can-be no doubt.-While on "a visit `to th,e . Xerth, in the summer of 1.821. or 1822, Mr. „ Calhoun was frequently in the Society..ofan eminent Presbyterian divine , The'acqUainil ance that had for. many years .e,.xisted, be , tween the two men, invited in their interviews the, fnllest and frankest expresaions`of and this was doubtless still, further:promoted by their entire diversity of pursuits. T theme that engrossed a large.' van of conversation was, naturally the institution of A.nierican slavery, for, in the admission of Missouri as a - Slaveliolding State into the Unibn, we had just, as ;a nation came through our :first'great struggle on that subject. In everything, however, that was said Upon this theme, Mr. Calhoun attempted no defense of the system, but, on the ,contrary, unhesita tingly pronbunced it to be a grea . tdevil r both morally and politically. At these declarations lie - .divine expressed surprise r and urged that the distingnished Southerner, as be was cer tainly greatly misunderstood on this subject, Should give to them some public expression. And as a definite mode, he suggested the prep aration by him of a bill for the abolition of slavery, either' gradual or' immediate, ,in the District of Columbia x . The property. ,of the whole country ; and the seat of our national government, the divine pressed upon. Mr. Calhoun, the desirableness of its being entire ly unpolluted .by the touch of slavery. At first - the argument seemed to be little heeded, tut at length,' Upon the condition that ,the measure should be entirely, a ,Southern one, come from the Soiith, and receive its advo -6.4y, Mr. Calhoun consented to prepare such a bill, and arranged with his friend to visit Was'hington, whenever he should inform him that' the details of the had - been pre pared. Nor was 'the promise forgotten. In the , winter following these interviews, Mr. Calhoun summoned his friend to the, capitol, informing hiin of his readifieSs to proceed with the proposed measure. The divine im mediately complied with the invitation: He went to Washington,saw Mr. Calhoun, athis, equest, sOlicited. two prominent Noritiern tacians to give to the. proposed measure ,eir influence, 'and } was, as he supposed, on the very eve of success, when- suddenly the distinguished Southerner refuied tak& another step in the Matter, alleging .0, - 8 his reason the violent anti-ilavery - feeling, :that, was then just beginning to manifest itself in snake portions of New'Enghind.:—.Dr: Dar r 441,0:4, Slaves y. and the War. • . _ - rOPi wwrL In all ages you will find; that although ,deep thinkers may sway the- thoughtful Nikita, round them, yet, in order td be , popnlari men; must be frank, open, fervid;`and mtist abOUnd, not so, much in the finer:feelings, as in those which ,are shared by the most of their fellows. Thus, last century it was not the devout and gentle Doddridge, but. the impetuous Whit fitld,,•wliet shook England:,from en 4 to ene. Thus, it has not he - en Leighton; or ,tinning or any such sequestered saint or seraphic' thinker,, who has made his,mark on &Aland; , so ranch as, a real ileah-and-bleOd reformer-- a participator in the caustic national hummir, 'scornful of superstition, sardonic toward: all mere sentiment, reverential only to the Word of God. 'And thus,' in the fatherlaiid i was `not' . Igelaticthon,": with his fine *ste t 'his. correct logic;his clear and careful statements, , his beautiful and balanced piety,: but it was, Luther, with his startling paradox and sUb limecxcesi—Lather ; with that : mighty heart of his, which is still the most diVing , thing in , Germart 7 -tuther, with thoSe r burning words, which, PiCk,ed:nl) and ligatq4 anew, by TPA. who, like Goethe; have little heart or, faith themselves; still make such excellent thuri.

And so the men of taste, the lov ers of,thecorrect and the beautiful, must,often stand aside and, allaw, God's work to, go, on_. through agencies which, if they 'do not, alto 7. gether fike, it is evident that,l4-iiimself has chosen, and which are plainly thebeat adap-, ted to the world as it is.—Dr. Hamilton.
