It was a morning. in Jung, and the

weighed a trifle less thai three hun
dred pounds, and had left the sea
after fifty years of faithful service.
Not another person was in sight.
I'll tell
,you What I'll do,' 'said
Captain Rove. ."If you Insist on
going, I'll stop on my way up and
ask Captain Danforth to look out
. for you, and if he thinks you're get
ting into trouble to sail after you'
'Thank you, Captain.'
'Dick,' said his mother can't. you
let the lobster-pots go ?'
,'Couldn't possibly,' smiled the
boy. 'Could you have' the heart to
ask me? Will you cast me oil,
mother P he called a' second later.
'Wait a minute,' :exclaimed' Mrs.
Swing. 'Fetch your boat close Op.
I wan't to speak to you Dick,'
The boat received the , necessary
impetus, and touched the side of the
pier. Mrs. Swing had seated her
self on the topmost layer - of logs
iorming the wharf, and - leaned over
as though - to speak "confidentially to
her son.
. _
'Pick,' said his mother, 'hold fast,l
I'm coming,' and into the boat she
dropped before •Capiaiti Ros e on the
.Dock or Captain--Richard in the boat
had knowledge of her intention..
'What under the., sun, mother,'
cried the bby, 'do you mean ?,. .
'l'm going with yOn, Dick, to keep
you fronitumbling .overboard when..
you haul in,' and . she seated herself
in the stern. calling back as the title
floated the boat out, 'We'depend on
you Captain Rose, to send after us
if we—if it gets too rough,' she gait!).
- ed . with a dash of spray in her lace.
'Ay, ay I' ci ied the Captain, and
he took off his hat and swung it, he
toncely knew why. •
• .Of all the women in Dell Haven,
from the eldest to the youngest, Mrs.
Swing most'feared the sea. To live
beside it, to watch its every. mood•
delighted her, but to l yenture out on
it for pleasure, she was never known
to do. • •
A moment's peace she never knew
when Richard, her only son, was ex
posed to the treachery of the waters,
hilt rather than mar his wild delight
iti L the wind and waves this unselfish
mother concealed as much as possiole
her anxiety for him.
:Richard was not selfish, and had
he imagined what his mother was at
that moment suffering wonld have
put the boat 'about and tied it for
ever at the stake rather than cause
her'this agony..
Just as the bOat got well into the
toil of the waves the sun arose shed
ding such brilliance on the waters
that Mrs. Swing, who sat facing it
was , dazz'ed and well nigh failed, to
see in time a gill net in which the
boat was running.
'See. any boat ahead. mother ?'
questioned Richard. 'You must
keep a good lookout for me. I've
got my ranges right and can fetch
the lobster grounds every time.'
'ls it far ?' questioned his mother
shudderingly.
'Not very ; just outside the Dull
Head. I reckon we'll fetch it; said
the lad, dipping'his oars for a -full
stroke and then letting, the boat
slide up to the summit of a rolling
'wave, a trick he had caught from
Captain Hezekian Danforth, the
master boatman of Dell Haven.
The 'Wind grew strongar and
the waves every , moment increased
in size. Even Richard glanced side
ways more than once with ill' con
cealed anxiety as the long billows
came tumbling on, and just then
getting a glimpse of his mother's
face beheld it so blanched with ter
ror of the sea that it seemed to him
Mit his mother was no longer in the ,
boat with him. 6
'Dick,' she gasped as his oar mis-
Red stroke and sent the spray over
the boat, 'Dick, I'm afraid to go on.'
Dick glanced backward. He had
pulled about a mile from Shore and
was midway between the two head
lands familiarly spoken of as the
horns. Dull Head was surrounded
by an even accumulating 'mass of
breakers, and Bright Head caught,
the sea on its precipitious sides,,
t rending it backward in fountains of '
foam, and all the four miles that lay
between the two points were roiling
miles of billows.
Sitting with his face landward
Richard had, not fully felt the dan•
ger.
Now the lad could not repress a
shudder as he said : 'I don't:believe ,
I could find the buoys in such a sea,
and nobody could haul in the pots.
I heliev e I'll put about.'
'O, do! 0, Richard; there comes
an awful one !' and Mrs. Swing BHP
ped dowd, from her seat into the
bottom ()lithe boat and hid her face
from the.oncoming wave:
Richard gave a mighty pull at
the oars to keep the boat head on;
and it rode that wave in safety only
to meet new ones, into whose depth
the shell rolled, to be complete
ly hidden from the sight of two men
.who were standing outon the Dell
Haven - pier.
'lf there was only a, tug in sight
to- help them,' groaned Captain Rose.
'Why didn't you dun a little com
mon sense in the woinzas if she didn't
take any naturally,' scolded Captain
Da:sfcrth, =shut her and the boy
up Jsomewheres.
-1 told her, but I 'declare when I
we, young I , could have brought
doWn them oars in half the time it
takes Jim to fetch 'em. I say,'Kiah
Danforth, ain't that boat trying to
put about?'
'lt acts like it, John, biit it will
get swamped just as sure as guns if
—no, it's going on. There's nothing
else to do. I never in all my life
saw a time when there' was a sail
in'sight; . . The boat's - gone!
No There it comes up again l'
Suddenly a cry for a helping hand
was raised among the bystanders,
and willing hearts went forth from
the land.
'Every second tells ' It's a race
for life l' called nut Captain Danfor
th. "Jim; - you'd better get in.
You're strong ; if one of us tuckers
out you can take hold.
All ready lay the boat,
.a dark
green surf boat, a boat that could
stand heavy seas, and the two men
and boy who h ad nobly volunteered
weFellut long In starting - off
--
MAMMA OrDENUNCILiTION FROM ANY QUARTER.
+Success to you. Fetch 'em back
alive Called out Captain - Rose.
All at'once the pier; of Dell Raven
seemed thronged with people. The
news had spread 'that Mrs. Swing
and
. Richard were out alone on 'the
sea. _
As they watched the dim dark
speck now rising Upon the swelling
waters and as quickly vaniehing
froili sight, Mit one of the' little
throng but kiew the danger of -the"
tiny boat. With breallleis haste
they watched the surf txit, as , its
two rowers stood at the oar urging
it onward. . •
'lt's down the harbor now. They're
catching it: It's eh awful wind for
June. Do you think they're gain
ing on 'em ? That mite of a boat
will never live till they get there;'
were some of the remarks heard as
they passed on.
As for Captain Rose, he went
panting up the bill into town s climb
ed into. the belfly of Dell Raven
cherth,i as ihr as he could go, and
watched shrongh a spy-glass the pro
gress of the mere speck in the die.
tance and the toiling helpers so fir .
behind.
Afters few minutes be realized
that Captain Danforth, although do
ing his utmost; could not reach the
periled ones in time to save them
and he said to himself :
'The boy is doing well, but hi
can't hold out. I must do it.' Cap
thin Rose's little daughter bid fol.:
lowed her lather in the church and
elimed the belfry stairs._
'See here,
Dolly,' he said 'can - You

Dolly Rose did not need to be

the way, and -rushing into the tele

out;.;
'Mr. Blake, here, send this quick.

the news got abroad - that , Captain
Rose had telegraphed to Cornwall
for a tug, and the burden of fear
grew lighter.
in the little boat again and again
had Richard tried to turn its bead
toward the land, but with each trial
it took in so much water that he
was forced to give, up the attempt.
Nothink could be done but keep off
and fade the boiling sea. Very few
words Were spoken. Mrs. Swing
kept bailing 'as fast as possible, with
only the t obeli of a home-shoe crab
to work , with.
At length came - . a wave like a
small Jill!, 'up which the boat rode
gallantly, and then suddenly Rich.
ard'shouted :
'They're coming for• us, mother.
I - see a boat just outside the' harbor.'
'Then the tears sprang to Mrs.
SWing's eyes. She stopped bailing
for a moment to look, toward the
shore. All she could see was a wall
of water shutting' out the land.
'Courage, mother,' Dick said.
Every rise and fall of the oar was
a prayer ; every dip of the poor old
crab shell was a petition for life.

'though how in thunder it's lived to

gave direitions to steam outside.
Richard's attention was divided
between the billows and the land
and the friendly boat, and Mrs.
Swing was so intent on bailing, that
neither of them saw the Lug until it
was upon them, and a bailing voice
shouted :
'Hold on till we pick yon up.'
It seemed as a voice from Heaven

LOngfellow's.lomance.
About the year of 1831, Long
fellow, being engaged in making the
tour of Europe, selected Heidelberg_
for a permanent winter residence.
There his wife was attacked by an
illness which ultimately proved fatal.
It so happened however, that some
time afterwards there came to the
same romantic plate a young lady
of considerable personal attractions.
The poet's heart was touched—he
lyvaine attached to her i but the
beauty of sixteen did not sympathise
with_the_ixiet of six-and-thirty ; and
Longfellow returned to America,
having lost his heart as well as his
wife. The young lady, also an Am
erican, returned home shortly after
wards. Their residences, it turned
out were contiguous, and the poet
availed himself of the opportunity of
prosecuting his addresses, which lie
did foris considerable time with no
bettei success than at first. Thus
foiled, he set li'mself resolutely downs
and instead, like Petrarcli,. of laying
siege to the heart of
. his
tress through the medium of sonnets,
he resolved to write a whole hook—
a book which would achieve the dou
ble ohject,of gaining her affections
andlestablishing his own fame. "Hy
perion " was the result. His labor
and his constancy were . not thrown
away—they. met their due 'reward.
The lady gave him her hand as well
as here heart, and they resideed to

house which Washington made his

Religion.
But, sir, political eminence and pro
fessional fame fade away and die with.
all things earthly. Nothing of char
acter is really permanent but virtue
and personal worth. These remain.
Whatever of excellence is wrought
into the soul itself belongs to both
worlds. Real goodness does not. at
tach itself merely to this life:; it
points to another world. Political
or professional reputation cannot
last forever; -but a conscience void of
offence before God and•man is an in
heritance for eternity. Religion,
therefore, is a necessary and India
pensible element in any great human
character. There is,no living with
out it. Religion is the tie that con
nects man with his Creator, and
holds him to His throne. If that tie
be all sundered, all broken, he floats
away, a worthless atom in the uni
verse; its proper attractions all : gone,
its destiny thwarted, and its whole
future nothing but darkness, desola
tion, and death. A man with no
sense of religious duty is he whom
the Scriptures describe, in such terse
but terrific language, as living "with
out God in the world." Such a - man
is out of:his proper being, out of the
circle of bis duties, out of the circle
of all,his bappin.ess and away, far,
far aWay,, from the l purposes of his
creation.—Daniel Webster.

atom a leeture by the Hon. Sohn Wentworth
have a vivill'recollectron of Mr.
Calhoun's last apeeeh; the whole of
which I beard. He came - into - the
senate Chamber supported by friends.
Every one -saw that his; hours were
numbered. He feebly addressed the
presiding officer, and asked that Sen
ator. James.M. Mason, of Virginia,
be permitted to real his speech. He
lingered through.the whole . reading,
although consuming quite, two hours,
his eyes moving about his audience
to notice its effect. Here is one - of
the closing passages : "If you who
represent,the- strongest portion can !
not agree to settle this question up=
on the broad principles of. justice
and duty; say so, and let the States
we both represent - agree to, separate
and part in peace. If you are un
willing we should part in pence, tell
-us. so and we will know'what to do."
It a min of Mr. Calhoun'shigh posi
tion and age, standing upon Tthe
brink of l eternity, could thus speak,'
it is easy to conjecture what would
be the effect upon the younger mem
bers from the South'
.Senator Ma
son read the speecKin a very 'defiant
tone, well calculated to engender the
bitterest feelings. I saw him - atter
ward when he was rot . so defiant: It
wak upon one cold day in November
when he, with John Slidell, was ex
cezcising himself in the open . air at
Fort Warren, in Massachusetts, reap
ing.' at T 5 years : of age, the
fruits of Mr. Calhoun's doc
trines. It is believed 'by many that,
had a man like James Buchanan
bten President, instead Of .Zachary
Taylor, the South would have tested
its strength at that time, when the
passions of the people were so much
excited respecting - the ;admission of
California as a free State.' I heard
this speech upon 4th of March, ls:;0,
and upon the ‘2(l of April thereafter
I - attended his.Tuneral in the same
chamber. Clay, Webster and others
made the .customary eulogistic
speeches. But Benton was as silent
as Mr. Calhoun was when John Qain
cy Adams died. The great -Webster
made an appeal to his -magnanimity
in the hour of his death, but Benton
replied : "He is not dead, sir—he is
not dead. There may be no ;vitality
in his body, but there is in .his • doc
trines. The last thing I did' before
leaving home was to denounce him
- and his treasonable sentiments, and'
I shall do the same .when return
hoine. My people cannot distinguish
between a man and his principles—
.between a traitor and treason. They
cannot eulogize the... One and de
nonnce the other. Calhoun died with
treason in his heart and on his lips,
and they knOW it. While I am dis
charging my duty here :his disciples
are disseminating his poison all over
the State." The foresight of Cola
nel Benton is made apparent by re
membeting that at the next election,
after he had been re-nominated by a
large majority, the . Callionn men
bolted the Democratic' Convention
and secured the election of the Whig
candidate. But for these Calhoun
men, all elected as members of the
same. political organiiation as Colo
nel Benton, he would have had-an
'other term, and in all probability the
honor of dying at his post. '•
Lower Canada.
There are two species of loup
garou in Lower Canada ; one that
kills and eats children, and, another
that, like the feax-folletts, seeks the
destruction of souls:. The former is
never:seen except by children, whose
evidence is not worthy of credence,
inasmuch as the loop-garou appears
to, wicked children only, but the ex
istence of the latter has been vouched
for by thougands of good. inhabitants.
A habitant.deep. in the backwoods
of the St. Maurice of Lac St. Jean,
has said his prayers and is preparing
to turn in - for I the night, when he
hears a shout Outside, ani going to
the door-is told by a belated teamster
bound
.for the shanties, that his
neighbor at the "clearing," ten miles
-away, is lying at the point of, death,
and that there is • •no priest • within
fifty.miles: The habitant harnesses
his horse and starts, without delay,
taking with him the bottle of holy
water.he brought from his native
. parish at Easter, his beads, and•pe.
tit Albert, a collection of prayers.
The wind is moaning in the forest,
and trees throw gaunt shadows upon
the snoW. Suddenly he hesrs - the
sound. of rushing feet, and, looking
over his shoulder as he plies. the
horse with his whip; discovers to his
horror that be is being pursued by a
loup.garou. .The? fiend resembles a
huge wolf, but italcry is human, and
its eyes are like : the lights of the
feux-follets. The habitant mutters a
prayer, and drives furiously. It is
a hard race through the . woods and
over the froien streams, but, thanks
to the good St. Anne, the patronne
of Lower Canada and the kind pro
'
Lector of backwoodsmen and seafar
ing men, the habitant_ reached . the
house first, and, placing the-oven
prayer-book on the table, defies the
louplarou to cross the threshold.
Ile is in time to sprinkle the dying
Wan with holy water, receive his
-last words, and close his eys. Then
fastening his beads ; upon the lintel
to preserve the *widow - and children
from the loup•garou, he sets . out to
call the neighbors
. and fetch the
priest, that the body may receive
Christian burial. It is.proper to add
that in the good old times, when the'

harvests from a virgin soil, and
hard drinking was the rule,--// east

1. The time fixed in the bill,name
ly, twenty years, is "unreasonable."
The' language of article one, that
''laborers" shall not be absolutely
prohibited from coming to the United
States, and' that the "suspension shall
be reasonable" as well as the .nego
tiations, indicate that a brief period
was intended. The total piohibition
of the immigratiOn of Chinese labor.
era into the,United States for twenty
years - Would in my opinion be unrea
sonable and:a violation of the mean
ing aed intent of the treaty.
2. The inclusion of "skilled labor"
in the bill is an addition to the wordi
and intent Of tbe treaty. ,It will op
erate with harshbess_upon a class of
Chinese merchants entitled to admits
sion to the United States under the
terms of thd treaty. The - shoe mer
chants and cigar merchants of China
manufacture the goods they sell at
their places of business, and to shut
out the - "skilled labor" they need
would p,iiictically shut them out as
well, since it. would prevent them
from carrying on their business in
this country. The laundryman who
keeps his shop arid has a small capi
tal' with which to prosecute his trade
cannot in any Just sense be included
in the class of, "laborers," and the
me - echant tailor comes in the same
category.
- 4. The clauses of the bill relating
to registration and passports are ' a
vexatious discrimination against
Chinese -residents and immigrants,-
when article 2 _ provides explicitly
that they shall be entitled to alt the
privileges conceded to the subjects
of the 'most favored nation. The
ei
ecutiou of these pi ovisions of the bill
will cause- irritation, and in case of
loss of the passport or certificate
of registration, Chinese residents en- _
titled to remain may be forcibly ex
pelled from the country.
4. If the bill becOmes a law, it will
leave the impression in-China that
its government strangely misunder
stood the character of the treaty, or
that the Congress has violated some
of its provisions, and that will tend
_to prejodice the intelligent clasizig
against the United States goTern-
Ment and people, whom they now
greatly' dmire and respect.
5. There - is fo provision in the'bill
for the transit across the United
'Statesiit Chinese subjects now resid
ing in foreign countries. Large num- •
hers of Chinese live-in Cuba, Peru,_
and other countries, who. cannot
turn home without crossing the ter
ritory of the United Statept betouch
ing at Safi - Francise. . To deny_this
privilege ; it seems to me, is in viola
tion of international law and the
comity of nations, and if the bill be
comes a law, it will in this respect
result in great hardship to many
thousands of innocent 'Chinese_
foreign countries.
