She is described as a lady of 'affable manners and: of intelligence, !Arid much esteemed... 4 Ono day shayisited Mrs Tuttle, and the usual compliments were hardly passed, before she, said,; "Well, what do you think, Mrs. T.; I I ham been to see Lady Washington !" .

Nor was she companionlese' what mother is 7 To the stranger and indifferent, the infant may seem, if not a cipher, a trouble, and a wearisome, charge. But she whose own bloo&flows in its veins, never forgets, and never wearies. We have .said Mary was still in the bloom of,youth.. •Put ,the,blessom was sadly fa-. ded. • Care, suffering, want, had blanched the rose on her cheeks. A few days be fore, you might Italie discerned feverish anxiety there, but now; all that had pass ed,. .Tie expression .of her face. was thoughtfi4 but still it snake rest. She had drank of i the cup of l bitterness to its very dregS';' inn . He whb hears the sorrow. ful sighing, 'oldie. wretched, 'had comfort ed her. The crisis hnd passed, and she felt that natural composure . Which steals on the soul, when all isdene i and all is suf fered—the rest with which Heaven rewards the patient and the dutiful.. Iler story . Was not a 'remarkable one, it by remarkt.ble We mean to say unusual. The appearance of the house indicated' something or it,; for we imagine that there' is always a significance in the aspect of a dwelling which one of the late inmates had just left, to go' to the "narrow house."— Mary's husband had been consigned to the grave. Ihe neighbors and friends who had aided in the melancholy bustle of the last offices, had returned to their homes, and Mary sat with her babe in the silent room. The husband whom she had buried out or her sight was her choice,—her wilful elpiio, made in spite" of the remonstrances, tIM oh jectiens, and forebodings of her rela tives.. For a short time after her union, it seemed as if his life and prosperity were to prove her triumphant answer to their objections. All was sunny, cheerful, prom ising. And the very friends who had warned rind expostulated with her, were willing to believe that they had been IA row?, and Mary right; and that affection had t not unerringly pointed out to her, excel lencies of character which they had not perceived. As if willing to atone for past enmity by warm friendship, they crowded advantages and facilities upon him, and liberally opened the way •to wealth. For a time, all succeeded that ho undertook, and no young man in tho city seemed more certainly assured ofeompetence than he. And Mary, how happy she was ! We can pardon her short period of exultation,, fer site bitterly suffered for it. Some men cannot bear prosperity ; and henry Irvine was one of these. Give them discouragements to meet, and uupro. pitieus circumstances to combat, mad they hew their way with a silent pride and res olute perseverarice which 'conquers all ob stacles. But let the sun shine on them, then pride soon finds outrageous utterance and their resolution degenerates into opin ionated obstinacy. They take pleasure in contemning, good ad vice,and will do wilful ly wrong, and against their own convic tion, to mark their indepenildnee. Henry Irwine took early occasion to retaliate up on his Wife's friends for what he affected to regard its their unwarranta6leopposition. Ho accused them, while they were in no snit:di - degree the authors of his 'prosperity, as being drawn t 6 !din fly it ; aridltitima tedthat'Selfishness was the origin of their former enmity: ' • • May was a trite'Wite. She saw the in justice other hneband,anCdeelined to ac knOndedge it, evett,te' hers'elt. 'At' length, , the coolness becartle.mcire and' more hig;iintillt resulted in'irreparable estrange rnent 'between Irwine.and:the friends of his wife. „He:gloried in what. he considered a eernplete„ p i nd enderivered to persuadc,him. self was rightedus revenge.. He ,made hie tartlet; opponents suitors for his friend. •ship, and proudly spurned their'.

The 0 .1 end_ of such a course is easily' lirOphosied; He fell among thieves; and for the wounds of friends exchanged the selfish flattery of knaves.• Plucked of :money, and bank rupt in credit and character, he•awaked at last to find himself a ruined man; with a meek ; 'uncomplaning wife dependent on him, and feeling twit() •as keenly' ns ho did, all his ruin and degradation. The temptation which has ruined many ; canio in to complete his destruction. He sought oblivien of his degradation in the:wine-cup, and there lost the last redeeming trace or hope of, manhood. It is a fearful fall, when the appetites triumph, and the reas on is dethroned; when the man wakes ofily to misery, and rushes back tolnebri ation again, in the vain hope to forget him : self. • ' A lower depth still remained ; and lion ry Irwine, found even that. His jaundiced thoughts dared to suspect her who, for love of him, had surrendered friends,home, happiness, hope. Because she did,not, and could not rail against her own, as lie did ; because she was mtek, and quiet, and un complaining, he quarrelled with her also. He charged that she hated him, and re gretted that het fate was coupled with his. The last she could not deny ; the first he saw in his Awn heart, and judged that it nzust be in hers also. It is their own fan cied concealed reflection in die good, that the wicked hate. And he dared, moreover to accuse his wife ds the cause of all his misfortunes.—; Ho said she triumphed in them I Can we wonder that she did not say that:she did not 7 It might have been 'dint she thought such a charge too wickedly preposterous to answer ; or, it might have been that she was wearied into hate at last, and not displeaSed to find that there' was one mode in which she . could inflict pain on one who had heaped so many wrongs on her. Mary was drawing near her DAnts Iloun. There is in most, if not all, careers, a moment—the crisis of life ; an hour upon which all the future hangs. That crisis came to Mary Irwine. Her house, derobed of many comforts, was not yet quite d.solute. She clung, while a glimmer cif hope remained, to her, faith in her husband. She believed that all who knew him did not knoW his degra dation. She thought that she had Conceal ed it from many ; and, fond simpleton ! imagined that men did not see through the , hollowneSs of her smile when she studio of her husbind It was night and late. There were voi ces, and a rude knock at the door. She opened it, and her own brother entered,' preceding the pobc"men, in whose custody he had found the inebriate husband. She looked, and comprehended aIL They laid the senseless man on a sofa'; and the stran ger lea the house. "Put on your bonnet, Mary," said her brother, and mine home with me." Mary cast an eye on the wreck of her love and hope. Loathing thowdits rose within her ; she' made one step as if to comply ; for escape was now first in her thoughts, and she felt that she had borne all that human nature could endure. The child disturbed in its sleep recalled her to the thought how hopeless was eitapo the babe smiled, and in the smile she saw the sunshine of other .days: Bowing over the cradle,:she sobbed out of her heart all its stern resolves. ; . . "Come 1" said her brother, "But, my child I" "We will send for it," said the brother, but perceiving a strange' 'look, almost in dignant, through her tears. "We will take it with us," he said.

TuL PRESlDENCY.—ttlfroris of a pecul• iarly mean, insidious and unscrupulous character are being made by agents 10' the whig party to catch Irish votes for the Whig candidate for the presidency. The deep and well-grounded antipathy of Irishmen to the English government is made. use of, and they are asked to vote. for Scott,, be cause, as is alleged, he carries "British lean" about some portion of his body.— The sacred name of religion is also used, and Irishmen are lislied to vote for Scott because a daughter of his has had the grace to become a Cntholie. We allude to these despicable efforts and the silly ar guments by .which they aro sustained, be cause WC conceive that the parties who use them insult the understandings of Irishmen and Catholics in the United States.' We do not deny—no one can—to Gen, Scott the merit of being a good soldier, but it may be worth while to inqilire on what occasion he received this dose of,"Britisb lead" about which so much is said, It waa'q One of the battles of the war of 1812 -,-La war declared and carried on by a dem ocratic administration . ; and opposed in its 'inception and its progress by that whig party of which Gen. Scott is now tho stan dard-bearer. Had that whig party in pow er in 1812 no war would have been de clared in England, Scott would have won no laurels, and the United States would have been humiliated and disgraced. Dur ing the war Scott, then a Junior officer, obeyed the orders which he received from his superiors, and fought gallantly ; but to the party which originated the war is .due the thanks of all true Americans and of emery enemy of English, insolence. No mutter what Scott's persenal merits may.bo, he is noiv, and would be', if by accident he should be elected, a tool in the hands',of that party which; on every occasion since the foundation oldie government, has lent itself to the designs of t! - .e British govern ment—that party with whom originated the alien and sedition laWs of Sohn Adams and whose most prominent leaders, even of the present day, are tainted with the spirit of native-Americanism—that party who opposed every proposition for'llie ex tension, by purchase or negotiation. of the limits of the republic, by which from year to year new fields haVe been Opened in the West and South for . the labor of our bo pressed country meti=that party who have commissioned Abbot Lawrence tin' the Court of St. James, to beslavcr, with his praise the tyrant aristocracy of Engkind, and" who, within the lust two years,, haVo signalized , their rule by the betrayal l .Oftlie republie t h of Central A ioncriO'' 91,4qm : inapt slavish Submission to Englisii tiggressfoy.

And who can wonder 1 It was a long, lona day. And dav pass ed into evening, and evening into midnight, before the care of her husband and her child suffered her to test. Exhausted na ture claimed her due, and Mary dreamed. She was back in the joy of other years— yet over that joy there seemed a sadness. People were decrying him to her, mid she was zealously defending him ns she had often done, And while she dreamed she thought his pleasant voice spake in her ear "Mary !" Again she spake,and now she sprang up and went to his b edside. "Can you tbrgive me l" "Forgive you, ckarest . 1 " She did not knov whether she was asleep or awake— whether he spoke in fact and deed or whether the voice were a dream voice.--; So, for want of further words, she placed her cheek to his.. 'God bless you, Mary ! /Vow I can rest.' Ile fell asleep. .But the shock his health had received was, not to be retrieved, so easy as by one night's rest. On the morrow he was both better and worse, for there was less strength. And so %tore day after day. We need not relate how with sure progress, but slow death mastered his victim; for Ilenry Ir wino's days were numbered. - And we need not describe how the young wile hovered over his couch, and his weary life was closed in forgiveness and peace. Brothers and friends she lacked none now ; forlle who calls us hence by death, has surroun ded its approach with circumstances which remove enmities and disarm hate. He pass ed away quietly, and his last illness left a gentle memory of him in men's hearts. There was a sound of wheels at the door. "Now, daughter," said her mother, ns she entered, "we have come for you as we promised. Come home again to our hearth and hearts. .Forget that you ever were away."' nary silently pointed to her child. Her • mother could make no reply, and Mary said : "With this memorial of hint, mother (and may Cod spare it for my memorial when I am gone,) I cannot forget that 1 have been away. And 0 ! how grateinl urn I, that once away, I stayed until now ; • that I remiiiiied here to see all reconciled on earth, to note the evidences in a meek and ninet, a repentant and resigned spirit,' that all is forgiven in heaven I .
