H. HASTINGS WELD A woman, still in the bloom of youth, sat alone in an humble apartment. Alone, —and yet not alone ; for, although there were none with whom she could exchange a thought, the basket-cradle at her foot sheltered a little being, which made Mary Irwine feel that, whatever the world might think, still she was not alone. iNor was she companioniess ; what mother is 3 To the stranger and the iudtherent, the infant may seen, if not a cipher, a trouble, and a wean:M . orue charge. ..tfmt she whose uwn blood flows in its veins, never forgets, and never wearies. We have said Mary was still in the bloom of youth. But the bloom was sadly faded. Care, suffering, want, had blanch ed the roses on her cheeks. A few days before, you might have discerned feverish anxiety there ; but now, all that had pas sed. The exptession of her face was thoughtful; but still it spake resk. She had drank of the cup of bitterness to its very dregs; but lie who hears the sorrow ful sighing of the wretched, had comforted her. The crisis had passed, and she felt that natural composure which steals on the soul, when all is done, and all is suffered, —the rest with which Heaven rewards the patient and the dutiful. Her story was not_a remarkable one ; 'if by remarkable we mean to say unusual. The appearance of the house indicated something Of it; for we imagine there is always a, significance in the aspect of a dwelling which one of its late inmates has has just left, to go to the "narrow house." Mary's husband had been consigned to the grave. The 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 of her sight was her choice,—her wilful choice, made in spite of the remonstrances, the objections, and the forebodings of her relatives. For a short time after her union, it seemed as if his life and prosperity were to prove triumphant answer to their objec tions. All was sunny, cheerful, promising. And the very friends who bad warned and expostulated with her, were willing to be lieve that they had been wrong, and Mary right; and that affection had not unerring ly jointed out to her excellencies of char acter which they had not perceived. As if willing to atone for past enmity by warp friendship, they crowded advantages. and facilities upon him, and liberally opened the way to wealth. For a time, all succeed ed that undertook, and no young man in the city seemed more certainly assured of competence than he. And Mary, how hap py she was ? ;We can pardon ; , her short period of exultation, for she bitterly suf fered for it. Some men cannot bear prosperity ; and Henry Irwine was one of these. Give them discouragements to meet, and unpropitieus circumstances to combat, and they hew their way with a silent pride and resolute perseverance which conquers all obstacles. -But let the sun shine on them, then pride soon finds outrageous utterance, and their resolution degenerates into opinionatedob stinacy. They take pleasure in contemn ing good advice, and will do wilfully wrong, and against their own conviction, to mark their independence. Henry Irwine took early occasion to retaliate upon his wife's friends for what he affected to regard as their unwarrantable opposition. lie ac cused them, while they were, in no small degree, the authors of his prosperity, as being drawn to him by it; and intimated that selfishness was the origin of their tar dy friendship, no less than it had been of their former enmity. Mary was a true wife. She saw the in justice of her husband, but declined to ac knowledge it, even to herself. At length, the coolness became more and more chil ling, until it resulted in irreparable es trangement between Irwine and the friends of his wife. He. gloried in what he consid ered a complete, and endeavored to per suade himself, was a righteous revenge. He made his former opponent§ suitors for his friendship, and proudly spurned them. Suoh was his impression. Theirs was that they had overlooked the disagreeable char acter of their favorite's husband, and striv en to befriend him; but that true to his na tural low instincts, he had refused. Neither barty was entirely right. When the breach ecame final, Mary lrwine deserted her fa ther and mother,' anclkindred, for. her hus band and identified herself with him, so far as lingering first affections would, permit. But, if her heart yearned over the dear first friends of her youth, she never suffer ed her conduct to betray what she account ed a weakness ; but clung to her husband with a madness of affection, which deserv ed a better red= than she received. Henry Irwine, as we have said, could not bear prosperity. A secret reason hard ly acknowledged to himself, why he dis liked his• wife's connections was because they perceived his dangers, and ventured to warn him. Hie sensitive pride took captious alarm and he gloried in mocking reproof„ by persisting in indiscretipn. The end of such a course is easily prophesied. He fell among thieves; and for wounds of friends exchanged the selfish flattery of knaves. Plucked of money, and bankrupt in credit and character, he awakened at last to find himself a ruined man, with a meek, uncomplaining wife dependent on him, and feeling twice as keenly as he did, all his ruin and degradation. The temp tation whiCh has ruined many, came in to complete his destruction. He sought ob livion 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 reason is dethroned ; when the man wakes only to misery, and rushes back to inebriation again, in the-vain hope to forget himself. A lower depth still remained; and Henry Irwine found even that. His jaundiced thoughts dared to suspect her who, for love of him had surrendered friends, home, hap piness, hope. Because she did not, and could not rail against her own, as he did; because she was meek, and quiet, and un complaining, he quarrelled with her also. He charged that she hated him, and re greted that her fate was coupled with his. The last she could not deny; the first he saw in his own heart, and judged that it must be in hers also. It is their own fan cied concealed reflection in the good that the wicked bate. And he dared, Moreover, to accuse his wife as the cause of all his misfortunes.— He said she triumphed in them ! Can we wonder that she would not say she did not ? It might have been that she thought such a charge too wickedly preposterous to an swer; or it might have been that she was wearied into hate at last, and not displeased to find that there was one mode iu which she could inflict pain on one who had heap ed so many wrongs on her. Mary was drawing near her DARK HOUR. There is in nidst, if - not in all careers, a moment—the crisis of a life—an hour upon which all the future hangs. That crisis came to Mary Irvine. Her house, derubed of many comforts, was not yet quite desolate. She clung, while a glimmer of hope remained, to her faith in her husband. She believed that all who knew him did not know his degra dation. She thought that sue had conceal ed it from - many; and, fond simpleton ! imagined that men did nut see through the hollowness of her smile, when she spoke of her husband. It was night, and late. There were. voices, and a rude knock at the door. She opened it, and her own brother entered, preceding the policemen, in whose custody he bad found the inebriate husband. She looked, and comprehended all. They laid the senseless man on a 'sofa, and the strangers left the house. "Put on your bonnet, Mary," said her brother, "and come home with me." Mary cast an eye on the wreck of her love and hope. Loathing thoughts rose within her; she made one step as if to com ply; 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 hop9less was escape—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!" said her brother. "But, my child !" "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. But the first careless expression had turned the scale. She made no answer, until, after waiting a moment in silence, her brother said, and now more sharply, "Come !" "Wait, till to-morrow." "Now, or never !" She made no reply, but bending over her soothed it again to sleep. She wavered— though—parleyed; and was roused, at last, frem a half dream by the noise of a closing door. She rose suddenly, and gazed wild ly about her. Her brother had gone; her dark hour had passed; for the temptation was withdrawn. Did she do right Mark the sequel, and then answer. Henry Irwine awoke to consciousness in a burning fever: It was not merely that which invariably follows debauch, nor was it that terrific delirium consequent upon long indulgence in intoxication; for his fall had been rapid, and the time of his error short. But disappointment, excess, and exposure, had made him, in a short space, a perfect wreck. He obeyed her guidance like a child, and she conducted him, to his bed, and then despatched the following note to an old friend : "Mary Irwine hopes that, among all the friends of her better days, there is one left who will come to her in her extremity, with no impossible demands, and that she shall find that one friend in Ir. Ralph." The physician, a benevolent old gentle man, was with her even before her mes senger returned. He-listened kindly, and if 's. thought of incredulity arose in his mind, he concealed it, and followed the wife, with kind words, as an equal, and not as a pa tron, to the bed-side of her husband. For a moment, he stood regarding the sad pic ture; then, gently taking the debauchee's hand, ptoceeded mechanically to count his pulse. "Oh, Doctor!" cried the sufferer, turn ing awn, "this is the cruelty of kindness !" 217 suspition occurred to, and a dark shade came over his face. "No !" he shouted in a husky voice, "it. is the keenness of in sult !" He rose to spring forward—but his face beamed deadly pale, and he sank exhausted and powerless. The Doctor sighed and turned away.— He sat down and penciled a prescription, and said, "I will call again." "Will you, indeed !" said Mary, her face brightening up. - "Poor child!" said the old gentleman. "You are pleased to find that I admit that something ails him besides intoxication.— "THAT 001TNTRY TB THE MOST PROSPEROUS WHERE LABOR COMMANDS TES GREATEST REWARD."-BUOHANAN. LANCASTER CITY, PA., TUESDAY. 4ORNING, FEBRUARY 6, i 855. Strange—strange—but very natural," and he hurried out. Henry - lay some hours, weak but con scious. Faithfully, but painfully, did his wife attend upon him; for, while the ne cessity of attention, and the piomptings of her heart called her to his side, she grieved to see that the sight of her face disturbed him—disturbed him almost to distraction. And who can wonder It was a long, long day. And day passed into evening, and evening into midnight, before the care of her husband and her child suffered her to rest. 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, and she was zealously defending him—as she had often done. And while she dreamed she thought his pleasant voice simile in her ear, "Mary !" Again it spake, and now she sprang up and went to his bedside. "Can you forgive me ?" "Forgive you, dearest!" She did not know whether she was asleep or awake— whether he spake in fact and deed, or whether the voice were a dream-voice. So, for the want of further words, she placed her cheek to his. "God bless you, Mary ! Now i can rest." He fell asleep. But the shock his health had received was not to be retrieved so easily as by one night's rest. On the morrow he was both better and worse—bet ter, for there was less fever—worse, for 'there was less strength. And so wore day after day. We need not relate how, with sure progress, but slow, 'death mastered his victim; for Henry Irwine's days were, numbered. And we need not describe how fhe young wife hov ered over.his couch, and his weary life was closed in forgiveness and peace. Brothers and friends she lacked none now; for He who calls us hence by death, has sur rounded its approach with circumstances which remove enmities and disarm hate.— He paSsed away quietly, and his last ill ness left a gentle memory of him in men's •hearts. There was a sound of wheels at the door. "Now, daughter," said her mother, as she entered, we have come for you, as we promised. Come home again to our hearth and hearts. Forget that you were ever away." Mary silently pointed to her child. Her mother could make no reply, and Mary said: "With this memorial of hint mother, (and may God spare it 'for my memorial when I am gone,) J cannot forget that 1 have been away. And, 0 ! how grateful am I, that once away, I stayed until now; that I remained here to see all reconciled on earth; to note the evidence in a meek and quiet, a repentant and resigned spirit, that all is forgiven iu Heaven! When this dear child shall live to ask of his father, then, mother, I can speak of the peaceful close of his brief day, but I need not of its dreadful storms." And Mary Irwine bade adieu to the house in which she had met and conquered her DARK HOUR. Au Absurdity of the Day After every blow-up of a banking system 'sky. a contemporary, which has occurred at tolerably regular intervals ever since paper money was devised, and will occur at regu lar intervals as long as it is tolerated, we hear some wisacre urging a reform. He ar gues that the last blowed up scheme was defec tive—he always knew it was weak in some points—he always said so, he did—and he even told the people so at the time the short sighted were enacting it; but now, its imper fections being clearly exhibited by the work ings and ultimate explosions, "now," says he, to the credulous people, "let us.gu to work, and, taking wisdom from the lust swindle we have suffered, fix up a system that can't fail!" Whereupon the people du go to work, and they elect a lot of legislators to go right off to the capitol of the State and invent this system !`that won't fail." They do the happy work, and the machine starts, and it Works for a while; but directly, like all preceding systems, having made good times bad, and bad times worse, a flaw is discovered in the boiler, and away goes an oxplosidn. Then what du we hear, after the fragments of the wreck are gathered up, and the scalded, burnt, killed and missing are counted? The same farce over again—no change of programme at all, and followed by a like result. Such has al ways been the history of rag-Money schemes, and such it ever will be till the millenium comes and the apostolic currency is restored. Even now, with the experience of nearly as many paper-scheme explosions before them as there have been explosions of ste::::,ers, the people of Wisconsin, not yet recovered from a terrible scald, are clamoring for "reform"— for "a system that WILL NOT blow up ! Hear the Chronotype, a well conducted journal of that State, on this point : "Petitions are in circulation in this and other counties, and now being numerously signed, asking the attention of the next Legis lature to existing defects in the present sys tem of banking. "The prayer of these petitioners is that the Legislature will pass some law to protect the people from the losses they are constantly subjected to growing out of this system; that a law abolishing usury on specie is wortli'y of consideration; or to compel our banks and bankers to pay out no paper money other than that of this State; or the passage of a law prohibiting, after a certain day, the cir culation of any foreign bank bills in this State. = "The feeling upon the subject, especially among our farmers, is much stronger than is supposed by those who are not in constant intercourse with them. In some way they are resolved to have the matter "regulated," and just protection. secured to them by law. No one will be surprised at this who knows how grievously the agricultural interests, and, M cleod, all the producint , classes, have been made to suffer by the financial operations of the past business season." There it is! "Reform!" as if a mad .log could be effcctualy cured without amputating his tail closely behind his ears! EXPOSURE OF THE MortiioNs.—The Boston Daily Times publishes a letter, dated Chicago, Jan. 16th, from two females, signing their names Mrs. Sarah Young and Miss Eliza Williams, who say that they have just return ed from the Mormon settlements at the Salt Lake, after a sojourn of ten years; on the part of the first, among the "Latter- Day Saints." Mrs. Young was one of the wives of Brigham Young, and speaks in terms of indignant dis gust of him and the whole community. She an nounces her purpose to expose tho infamy thereof in a course of lectures,and will produce dpoumenta to sustain her assertions. She inti mates that the Mormons have secret plots and purposes inimidal to the welfare -of the Union. A BEAUTIFUL AND SUBLD PRAYER REV. ALFB.ED Coo Kauai, Pastor t? the M. E. Church of Harisburg, on the occa sion of the Inauguration of Governor Pox:- LOCK, upon the 16th ult., addressed the Throne of Grace, in the following earnest, impressive and eloquent prayer appropriate to that interesting occasion : "Who is like unto Thee, oh Lord aMong the Gods? Who is like unto Thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing Won ders. Thou art the' Author of the world, the Creator of men, the Ruler of Nations, and the Establisher of Governments. sen sible of our entire dependence upon Thee, we would come into Thy august presence with all that reverence and humility which are due to thy greatness, and with all that hope and love which Thy goodness should inspire. Look complacently upon us, land let the words of our lips, and the medita tions of our hearts be acceptable in Thy sight, oh Lord! our strength and our Re deemer ! Reminded by surrounding circumstances of our national blessings, we would reviler Thee heart-felt praise for this good land which the Lord our God has , given laud distinguished by knowledge—digui fled as the abode of civil and religious lib erty, and endeared to our hearts by the patriot's.zeal and the ashes of our forefath ers. God of Nations, sanctify and perpet uate our.saored privileges. Let the future of our country's history be more prospe rous and glorious than its past. Upon this Freedoni's fair heritage, 'let the bright cloud of. the Divine glory continually rest, and upon all this glory be Thou an unfail ing and abiding defence. Bless the Pres ident of the United States, his advisel4 . in Cabinet council, our Representatives how in National Congress assembled, thejJudg es of our Supreme and subordinate Courts, the Governors, add Legislatures of our various States, and all who are in positions of authority,`and responsibility, and honor. Give unto them that wisdom which is prof itable to direct, and may their conduct, both public and private, be marked bylthe strictest justice and the most unswerving integrity. Graciously remember, oh Lord Thy servant our Governor, who this day retires from a station which he has occu pied with credit to himself, and with prof it to the people, We praise Thee forthe peace and prosperity which have prevaded curing the entire term of his official her vice. Accompany him into other spheres, and may his conduct iu the future be char acterized by the same purity of intenion and uprightness of action which have ever dignified and adorned his life in the p4t. _ And now we earnestly and unitedly,in yoke the richest blessings of Thy gr,ace upon the Governor elect, who, with all ;the solemnities of an oath, will this day heiin ducted into his new and responsible offffie.

WOMEN.—From the lips of woman, e,e ry infant hears the first accents of affection, and receives the first lessons of duty in ten derness and love. For the approbatiori of woman, the grown-up youth will undertake the boldest enterprise, and brave every dif ficulty of study, danger, and even death To the'happiness of woman, the man of maturer years will devote the best efi r gies of his mind and body; and from e soothing and affectionate regards of woman, the man who is become venerable by years, derives his chief consolation in life's de cline. Who, then, shall say that one half of 41e human race, and they confessedly the nicst virtuous and the most amiable, may not. he entrusted with an intelligence and influ ence equal to our own! Tathem, when sor row afflicts us, we consign half our suffer ings, and cheerfully relieve us by lighten ing them. When joy delights, we give the half our pleasures, and they as readily consit to share them. They lessen, by their sytn pathy, the pangs of all our privations, Ind they increas, by their participation, the ec- Stacy of all our delights. They deserVe therefore; the full _enjoyment of every pri vilege that it is in our power to confer ,on them.

Ditmaged meat—a beefsteak that four apprentice boys have been at. in UNIT! as.--A proposition has been intro duced into our State Legislature to disband all volunteer companies in the Conimonwealth where more than a fourth of the number are naturalized citizens. An effort was made to a mend by requiring one half to be American born, but it did not carry. Those who support the Know Nothing movement, under the belief that the object is nut to disfranchise foreign born, but to curb and persecute the Catholics, will see, in this movement, that religious dog mas have very little to with it—that place, power and emoluments of office are the govern ing principlesto be obtained at a sacrifice of of everything noble and patriotic. To embroil the country in intestine trouble, and to array religious associations against each other, is of very little moment to them, so their end is gained by securing a fat office. unius n.
