We parted in silence, we parted by night,
On the bank of that lonely river,
Where the willows wild, their boughs unite,
We met —and we parted forever.
The night bird sar.g, and the stars above
Told many a touching story,
Of Friends long past to a haven of love,
Where the soul wears its mantle of glqry.
We parted in silence —our cheeks were wet
With tears that were past controlling ;
We vowed we would never—no never.forget,
And these vows were then consoling.
We parted in silence, wc parted in tears,
'On the banks of that lonely river,
But the color and bloom of by-gone years,
Shall hang o’er its waters forever.

Upon my living soul she., looked,
Almost too good to eat! '

Curious Railroad Adventure.
A corespondent of the Pittsfield (Mass.) Sun re.
lates the following singular story of a “ happy gen
tleman," who attempted to use the Housatonic Rail
road track as a public highway:
When the night train from New York was within
three-fourths of a mile of the Falls Village Depot,
Canaan, Ct., an obstruction was felt by Mr. Bridg
man, conductor, who, upon questioning the engineer
found that he had discovered an object on the track,
but was so close upon it, and under such headway,
as to be unable to escape it. On examining the
cow-catcher, on the arrival at the depot, the inter
stices were found filled with the fragments of a
wagon body, presenting the appearance of*a crow s
nest.—With much anxiety, the conductor, with at
tendants and lights, passed back over the»track.—
Some eighty rods from the depot, a broken jug was
found, which sustained .the observation of one of the
temperance hands immediately previous, that
“ there was rum somewhere/’ Some dozen rods
“ further, discovered a shirt, without owner and with
out blood. Soon the broken spokes and hubs, and
tires, wrenched and broken, brought them to the
scene of the disaster.
In a deep excavation'adjacent was found a valua
ble horse, upon his back, stiff, and with faint signs
of life. In the meantime no human forms were
discovered, until the loud call of the conductor was
heard, when the unsteady voice ot an equally un
steady man was heard in the thicket, near at hand,
who clambered down the bank as directly as cir
cumstances would admit. He was accompanied
by two interesting boys, one four and the other six
or eight years of age.
To the question ot Mr. Bridgman, “ what are
you doing on the track of the .raiload ?” the answer
returned was in the memorable style of the army
in Flanders, of which Uncle Toby spoke sometime
ago. It seemed the poor man had no conception
that he had been rode down by the iron horse, or
that he was on any other but a shocking bad pub-
lic road, of which fact alone he seemed to be fully
sensible; for the smallest boy remarked, that papa
said as they were coming along, that he should not
ride over the road again till they had repaired ir.
The upshot of the matter is this : The man was
engaged in looking up a farm for purchase. _ A
gentleman .in a neighboring town had lent him a
valuable family horse, with which he had made a
journey to his former residence. He was on his
return. He had’ drank something stronger than
water, which confused either his eyesight or his
judgment; that where the public road crossed the
railroad, instead of passing directly on, he turned
upon the track, tiers of which a good portion of
the way, protruded from 4 to 8 inches above the
level—and passed no less than five “ cattle guards.’"
ope or two of which were of double width. The
horse, with the buggy, jugs, &c., safely leaped them
all, unaccountable as it may seem. The noise of
his own conveyance was such as to conceal the ap
proach of the locomotive in the rear, which demol
ished the buggy,.threw the horse into the ditch, and
safely depositing the “ interesting stranger” and
his fine boys upon, a high bank, some 14 feet in as
cent.
What is remarkable, is this—the man affirmed
that the horse had run away and smashed the bug
gy; the horse was turned over and helped to rise,
and not a bone or even the skin was found broken.
The person of the man and of his two boys were
unmutilated—no other marks were received than a
fine coat stripped in the back from from waist to
“collar, and a somewhat comical expression given
to the rear of his hat. A pretty good commentary’,
this, upon temperate drinking. We ought -to add,
further, that another jug was found in the road,
safe and sound, and full, which was duly smashed
by those in attendance, to the no small chagrin of
its owner.
The Magic o? Kindness —Who will deny there
is a magic in kindness, a magic by which every
grief may be dispelled, and every tear be brushed
away—many a heart sad and sorrowing has been
made light by a single kind word or deed, and
many a “person has been by its gentle influence
raised from shame and misery. Yes! it has instill
ed the seeds of virtue in the bosom of many who
were fast sinking to ruin and- degradation. Those
seeds have taken root and flourished vigorously,
making happy and honorable those who would
otherwise have been outcasts of society. A kind
instead pf-a harsh word has led the degraded back
to the path of virtue, and shown him there is some
thing bright to be attained by. following honor’s
course. Ihen who would refuse a kind act, or a
gentle word ; it costs nothing, and may be a jewel
of great price to the children of sorrow and mis
fortune.
The Khaisi Cattle.— The two Damascus cat
tle presented by Lieut. Lynch, to the State, were
exhibited by Col. Castleman in Winchester on Mon
day last. They are beautiful animals, lightly and
delicately formed, and standing about fourteen and
sixteen hands high respectively. The bull is but
twenty-three months old, and weighs 119 Q lbs; the
heifer two months younger weighs 700. Winches
ter Virginian.
Es*When Haddix’s wile kicked him out of bed,
says he to his spouse: “See here, now, you had
better not do that again ! If you do, it will cause
a coolness!"
“Mary Murray, yon say—and, pray, who is
she'?’’
These words were addressed by one young lady
to another, in reference to an acquaintance to whom
one of them had just bowed.
Who ? The daughter of Widow Murray. A
dear, sweet, amiable girl as ever lived is Mary, too
—you ought to know her.”
“ I'd rather not,” .said the first speaker, with a
toss of the head. st The daughter of widow Mur
ray, who keeps a petty thread and needle store!—
Why, the next thing will be to associate with one's
kitchen maids.”
“ But, in this country, Emma, it is merit that
makes the rank,” replied the other. “ Here, you
know, we have no aristocracy. Mary Murray is
more beautiful, more accomplished, and more
amiable, too, than half my school-mates.”
r “ Wei), I can tell you one thing, if you keep up
your acquaintance with her, you’ll be cut by all
genteel people. Do you think the.Livingstons,
Harrisons, and Lawrences will come to your par
ties, if they are to meet shop-girls there?”
“ They can-do as they please,” replied Kate Vil
liers, with spirit. “ But one thing is certain, I shall
not give up Mary for them, as I like her for her
self and not her ancestors. Besides, for all 1 know,
she may’ be as wellborn as they are; I never
thought to inquire.”
Just at this moment a handsome young man,
riding a beautiful horse, passed, and made a bow to
the young ladies. The first speaker all blush
es at this public notice from one of the richest and
most fashionable men in the city.
•‘Dear-me,” said she,.*• how glad I am he did
not see you speak to that Miss Murray ! He
would never have noticed either •of us again.”
Kute Viiliers curled her pretty lip in scorn, as
she replied,
“Frank Hastings is too sensible to be affected by
such a thing, 1 fancy. But, if he is not, he is only
the more to be pitied.” And warming with natu
ral indignation, she continued, It vexes me beyond
patience to see people, in this country, talking of
the gentility of their families, when, out of a hun
dredf there is scarcely one that is not descended,
and at no great distance, from some honest me-”
chanic or respectable .farmer. Take our richest
families! A- century ago they were poor, while
the real old gentry of that day are now generally
beggared. Who was Astor? A poor German lad.
Who was Girard? A French cabin-boy. What
was Abbot Lawrence once? A Yankee wood-chop
per. bo, too, our great statesmen, Clay, Webster,
and Benton? all rose from nothing. We ought to
ask, not who a person's ancestors were, but what
they are themselves.’’
Kor the lutelligeneri.
A lew days after, as Kale and her acquaintance
were walking,together, they met Miss Murray,
who, unconscious of offence, stopped to converse
with Kate. Emma was evidently uneasy, the more
so as her keen eye detected Frank Hastings prome
nading down the street toward them. Politeness,
kept her stationary, for a moment, but, as he drew
nearer, the disgrace of being seen with the daugh
ter qf a “ thread and needle woman,” as Emma
called Mrs.'Murray, proved too strong for'her cour
tesy, and she abruptly broke away and went into a
store, pretending a wish to purchase some ribbon.
Frank Hastings, meantime, came sauntering
idly down the street, and only perceived Kate when
close upon her. v
“ Good morning,” he said, bowing, his eye at
tracted by Miss Murray's pleasing face. “Will
you take pity on an idler Miss Viiliers, and allow
me to accompany you in your walk?”
Kate, who was eagerly engaged, and to a friend
of Frank s, answered frankly, for she and Hastings
were.almost, as intimate as brother and sister,
“ 1 shall be pleased if you will. Only you must
be very agreeable, for my Friend and I are used to
having sense talked to us, and, if you don't acquit
yourself creditably, we shall black-ball you, as you
say at the club, the next time you ask for permis
sion to walk with us.’’
Frank, however, needed no incentive to induce
him to talk his best; for the sweet countenance ol
Mary, in which every emotion of the heart was
reflected, was inspiration enough.
They stopped at last, at Mrs. Murray’s little
store. Frank looked, with some surprise, at the
humble appearance ol the dwelling; but this did
not prevent his bow to Mary being deeply respect
ful, as he walked off with her friend. :
“And that charming girl,” he said, “ assists to
support her mother, by standing behind the coun
ter. Do you know. Kate, I was half in love with
her before, and now I am. entirely so ? A wife,
such as she would make, is worth having, because
worth a dozen of the foolish votaries of fashion—
gilded, conceited butterflies like your friend Emma.
You must take me to Miss Murray's some evening,
and introduce me regularly.”
Kate had known Frank too well to suppose he
would despise Mary, because her mother had been
reduced to comparative poverty; but she had not
dreamed for an instant, of his falling in love with
her. But now, as she hastily thought over the
good qualities of each, she clapped her hands and
cried,
“That will I, for you are just suited for each
other. .We will go to-morrow night.” And again,
and again Frank went, and, after the first two in
terviews, always without Kate. He was noble
hearted, intellectual, graceful, and refined ; and Mary
Could not long resist the devoted suit he paid to
her. Indeed 1 , after some maidenly struggles with
her heart, “she yielded herself to loving him with
all the depth of her pure, yet ardent nature.
Frank \ya§ too sensible to regard the mere ac
cessories of fortune. Perhaps"; indeed, he loved
Mary the better for her poverty. He could never
have entertained an affection for her, if she had
not been amiable and intelligent; nor, perhaps,
even if her parents had been unworthy; but all
things else he considered comparatively indifferent.
Himself accustdtned, from his earliest years, to
fashionable society, he knew its exact value ; and
he was accustomed to say that “ worth, not wealth
was what he sought in a wife.”
Mary, on her part, loved Frank, for his frank
ness, intelligence and generous qualities, and not
for his fortune. “ I would rather remain - single,
she said, “than marry for wealth.”
About three months after the day on which our
story opens, Kate VilJiers called on her old school
mate, Emma.
“ Who do you think is going to be married?” she
said. “\ ou give it up ? Well, Frank Hastings
and Mary Murray.”
“What!” exclaimed Emma, pale with mortifi
cation, for she had herself assidously sought Frank's
notice, “ not Frank Hastings and that “thread and
needle woman’s' daughter?”
“Yes! and a happy couple they will make, —
Mary will now have the wealth she is so well fit
ted to adorn.”
“I shan’t visit her,” said Emma, pettishly.—
“ She’s a nobody. If Mr. Hastings chooses to dis
grace himself, let him ; but he'll find out the ‘old
families 1 won’t recognize his acquaintance.”
“Pshaw!” said Kate contemptuously. “You
know better. Mr. Hastings is, himself, a member
of one of the few ‘old families’ we have; and being
such, is above all the ridiculous notions of the mere
-parvenue' It happens, too, that Mary has 1 good
blood,’ as you would -call it. She is the grand
daughter of a signer of the Declaration, an Amer
ican patent of nobility, I- take it, if we have any
at all.”
“ Then it is on that account he marries her,”
was the splenetic reply.
“No he never knew it till he asked her to have
him. Her virtues and accomplishmens won his
heart, and they alone.”
In due time Frank and Mary were married, Kate
being led to the altar on the same day. Emma
has learnt a lesson, and, since then, inquires less
superciliously about a new acquaintance.
The New Comet is said by the Boston Traveller
to be now faintly visible to the naked eye in the
constellation Ursa Minor, its northern declination
being stated at 72 degrees, and its right ascension
16 hours 20 minutes. It is - increasing in bright
ness as it approaches the earth; and will be distinct
ly visible during the middle of July.

“'that COUNTRY IS THE MOST PROSPEROUS, WHERE LABOR COMMANDS THE GREATEST REWARD.”— Buchanan.
CITY OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY MORNING, JUNE 18, 1850.
Minnesota.
The Harrisburg Telegraph publishes the follow
ing extract from a private letter from Governor
Ramsey, dated St. Paul, April 28:
The navigation of the Mississippi, the great ar
tery of our Territory, up this point, (St. Paul, the
Capital,) has opened this Spring later than usual.
The ordinary period, for a.series of years, for the
arrival of the first boat from below, has never been
later than the first week in April; and occasionally
as early as the third, or the last week in March.
It would be open earlier still, were it not that the
great and beautiful widening of the Mississippi,
known as Lake Pepin, some 60 miles below us,
generally remains filled with unbroken ice for ten
days or two weeks longer than does the river,
either above or below it. This is attributable to
the fact, that there is scarcely any current in the
lake, which is quite deep, and wholly without
islands , (an uncommon thing for the Upper Missis
sippi, which otherwise, above the Missouri, might
truthfully be termed the River of the Thousand
Islands) —and for these reasons, the ice freezes
thicker in Winter, and has less impetus to move it
off in the Spring, than that, formed in the stronger
current and narrower channel of the river proper.
Finally, however, a considerable freshet caused by
the melting of the unusually 'heavy snows of last
Winter in the upper country, has opened the lake;
and on the 19th inst. the two first steamboats of the
season arrived at St. Paul, loaded almost to the
guards with freight, and landing on our shores
nearly one thousand passengers! • You may imagine
we had quite an interesting time of it. Our popu
lation rushed to the landing, and received the new
comers with no little nor quiet enthusiasm.
• * * * •
Besides the Nominee, (a new and fast boat that
makes the up trip of 36U miles to St. Paul from
Galena, in 35'hours, and the down trip in 24) we
have the two Franklins, Nos. 1 and 2, the Highland
Mary, the Yankee, Lamartine, and doubtless will
have other boats iq the trade, giving us on an aver
age a daily arrival at St. Paul. This alone is strong
evidence of the progress of our Territory ; for these
boats are in the trade to make money, and it is no
contemptible country that furnishes business for
some half dozen or more steamboats.
Yourself, or any other person travelling to this
region the ensuing Summer, and taking the north
ern route, should so time their starting, as to arrive
at Galena on either Monday or Tuesday mornings
At 12 o'clock on those days, regular boats invariably
leave for St. Paul, and thus, with a little attention
at the start, there will be no likelihood of delay —
though, to ,*be sure, the multiplicity of boats now
engaged in the trade, render it probable that some
boat would be found any day at Galena, bound for
Minnesota. I have no doubt the trip can be made
this Summer to St. Paul in eight or nine days from
Philadelphia or New York, by the northern route.
Our people are all in high 6phito at the prospects
opening for Minnesota ; and I think it questionable
whether the most of them would not refuse to ex
change with California, as to the enduring pros
perity of the future, could space even be annihilated
and the two Territories placed side by side.
Pleasant Surprise.
A young man of twenty, a student in a universi
ty, took a walk one day with a professor, who was
commonly called the students’ friend, such was his
kindness to the young men whom it was his office
to instruct.
While they were now walking together, and the
professor was seeking to lead the conversation to
grave subjects, they saw a coat and a pair of old
shoes lying in the path, which they supposed be
longed to a poor man who was at work in a field
close by, and had nearly finished his day's work.
The young student turned to the professor saying:
“Let us play the man a trick; we will hide his
shoes and conceal ourselves behind those bushes,
and watch to see his perplexity when he cannot
find them.”
“My dear friend,” answered the professor, “we
must never amuse ourselves at the expense of the
poor. But you are rich, and you may give your
self a much greater pleasure by means of this poor
man. Put a dollar in each shoe, and then we will
hide ourselves,”
The student did so, and then placed himself with
the professor behind the bushes hard by, through
which they could easily see the laborer, and see
whatever wonder or joy he might express.
The poor man soon finished his work, and came
across the field to the path, where he had left his
coat and shoes. While he put on the coat he slip
ped one foot into one of his shoes; but feeling some
thing hard, he stooped down and found the dollar.
Astonishment and wonder were seen upon his coun
tenance; he gazed upon the dollar, turned it round
and looked again and again; then he looked around
on all sides, but could see no one. He then put the
money in his pocket and proceeded to put on the
other shoe; but how great was his astonishment to
find the other dollar! His feelings overcame him;
he fell upon his knees, looked up to heaven and ut
tered aloud a fervent thanksgiving, in which he
spoke of his wife, sick and helplesss, and his chil
dren without bread, whom this timely bounty from
some unknown hand would save from perishing.
“Now,” said the professor, “are you not much
better pleased than if you had played your intended
trick ?”
“Oh, dearest sir, answered the youth, “you have
taught me a lesson now that I will never forget.—
I feel now the truth of the words which I never be
fore understood—“lt is better to give than to re
ceive.”
We should never approach the poor but with the
wish to do them good.
Cuvrch and State. —There is not much reason
to fear a too intimate alliance between Church and
State in this country under any circumstances:but
with a view of keeping them at a perfectly safe po
sition with respect to each other,* some genius in
Ohio has suggested in a paroxism of zeal, the fol
lowing sentiment for the revised constitution of that
State:—
“No professor of religion shall hold any office
except in the church.”
This is decidedly progressive, and the author of
such a proposition is entitled to some consideration,
whatever may be the fate of his constitutional sug
gestion. We may lairly conclude that he has not
thought proper to bestow his patronage upon religion.
To him, therefore, “ the church”—what church he
does not tell us—is a sort of terra incognita, and he
has probably judged her respectability by that of
some of the “professors” against whom he’would
enforce a constitutional objection. If so, we don't
know but he has some plausibility lor the proposi
tion he advances. But the practical effect of his
notion would be to get this very class of professors
out of the church into the State we apprehended
in this he would overreach himself. Professors ol
religion particularly hungry after office, would in
a constitutional emergency, we suspect, be sadly
tempted to give up the church for State; for the at
tractive qualities of the loaves and fishes are as
great in the present century as they were 1800
years ago. It is only necessary to pnt them ex
clusively on the side of either church or State, to
determine to a considerable extent the affections
and zeal-of patriotic profession on the one hand, or
reiigioui profession on the other.
The church, in the best sense of the term, we
suppose, would gain a loss by such a constitutional
provision. Sincere profession would 1 be relieved of
a pretty extensive assortment of stimulated piety,
drawn off by the attractive influence of the State,
so that the church would not in the end probably
have much cause to complain of. But it happens
in this case, that the rule wont work both ways,
the church not being vested with the power to ex
clude, upon constitutional provision, every officer ol
the State. We suppose, therefore, that Ohio will
not be in a hurry to divest the church altogether
of her civil rights in the State, until it can be done
on impartial grounds. —Baltimore Sun.
Delaware Powder. —The most extensive pow
der mills in the world, are those on the Brandywine,
in that State; and that the best powder made is at
these mills. They • manufactured the last year
2,500,000 pounds, which would, allowing a ton for
a load, make 1250 wagon loads, and require 2500
horses to draw them. These, on the road, would
make a train seven miles long, -and at an average
price of 12£ cents per pound, would amount to the
large sum of $312,500.
