Fixed on some sunny slope or spot.

And poplara whitening in the breere.

To hare the porch with vine o'erhung,
With bells of pendent woodbine ewung,
In every bell a bee,
And round ray lattice-window spread
A clump of rosea, white and red,
To solace miue and me.
I kind o'tbink Islioull desire
To hear around the lawns a choir
O'woud birds singing sweet;
And in a dell I'd have a brook,
Where I could ait and road my book.
Such should bo my retreat,
Fur from the city's crowds and noise ;
There would I fear the girls and boys,

And If kind Heaven should blest niy itoro
With live or six or seven more ,

Profering Slavery to Freedom,
One of those instances which now and
Ihon show the si'ver lining of Slavery
says the N. Y. Time, occurred on Tues
day, at Philadelphia. Pass.vork William
sou, that moral sleulhhound, whose scent
for the slave is as keen as that of the
most accomplished Cuban beagle, riicov
ercd in the person of a female servant, at
tendant upon a Mr. Conquest, ol Virginia
nor residing in Philadelphia, an involun
tary victim of tho great wrong. Theiil,
it was reasonable to presume, could not
be acquainted witti her rights. In the
true evangelical spirit, Williamson seems
to bavo indoctrinated her with the princi
ples of the C6ntitution, as interpreted by
the Supreme Court : nnd gaining a mo
mentary intluence over her mind, procu
red her signature to an application lor

transaction appeal in this : The master,
coascious of the precarious tenure of his
property, and prescient of the ellbrts of
her Abolitionist te.npters had indulged
the girl with a survey ol the citv ami its

practical turn was given to this expidition;
' unrJ that among the purlieus laid open to

The Members of his

calamity wns to fall upon our loved land

Forney would have his reward. Wo
know that he does not love Douulns, nnd
that Douglas does rot trust Forney.
Four years ngo at Woshineton, Forney
said, "Douglas was the prince of dema

all wlu knew Forney then, and were in

despised the little mnn who is now trav

Disappointment in his ambitions views

Had Mr. Btichantm given him the control

Postmaster General, th President would
still have been a "good nnd great
old man," and Douglas "tho prince of
demagogues, insincere, nnd not lit to tie

party and tho country, this bold, bad, I
unprincipled man, bos been thwarted in
his schemes of self aggrandizement, and

satisfied with the samosky that hangs ov

vate sunset, that ho may enjoy it wilh a
select circle of friends, nor can ho add
ono single ray lo the clear bright beams of
the queen of night, as sho sails magnilio
eully through the heavens. The richest
banker cannot have more than his share
of tho pure fresh air to breathe, and the
poorest of all men have tho mime, Wealth
may buy a brilliant bracelet, dazzling with
diamonds ami rubies, but wealth cannot
buy a graceful and well turned arm on
which to display its splendor, God only
can give that, and to many of the poor he
has given it, 'I wish I bad the health of
that rosy-checked peasant girl,' aigh
the a;'istoertic invalid, propped up with

says the girl 'if I could only lido in such
style as that.' Wealth cannot purcliacie-
health, nor can it give a contented mind.
All that is mot valuable can be had for

Be Content. The man who is obligol
to earn the necessaries of life, and sup
port his family, knows not tl.e tiubappi
ness he prays for when he ries're.s wealth
and idleness, To be constantly busy is to
bo always happy. Persons who have sud
denly acquired weulth, broken up their
active pursuits, and begun to live at their
fivse, waste away aud die in a very short
limo. Thousands would have been bless
ings to the world, and adJud to the com
mon stock of happiness, if they hud been
content to roiuuin in an humble sphere,
and earned every mouthful of food that
nourished thoir bodies. Persons who are
always busy, uud go cheerfully to their
daily U.ks, are the K'a-.t disturbed by tho
