.the Three Sons.
BY UZT. J. NAULTILIN.
I base a son, a little son, • • •
A boy just five years old, :•
With'eyes of thoughtful eamestness,
A mind of gentle mould.
Theite.).lmd that unusual grace •
In all his ways appears;
That ho ii"grave and wise of heart— . •
/ / Beyond kiis childish years. .
I cannot say how this maybe,
I know his fase is fair, .
And yet his sweetest comeliness, -
Is his sweet and serious air; -
I know his heart is kind and fond,
, I know he loveth me, .
But loveth yet his, mother more,
. 'With ~,ni"ateful fervency ;
But that Which others must admire,
'lathe thought which fills his mind,.''
The food for grave enquiring speech,
He every where loth find, -
Strange questions doila he ask of me,
When we together walk;
!e scireely thinks as children think,
Or talks as children - talki - , .
Nor cares he nauch.for childish sports,
. Doats not 'on- bat or ball,
But looks on manhood's 'Ways and works,.
Arid aptly mimics all.
His little heart is busy still,
And oftentimes perplexed
With thoughts about this world of ours, •
And thoughts about the next. ,
He kneels at his d e ar mother's knee,
She teaches him to pray,'
And strange and sweet and solemn then,
Are word' which he will'say..
Oh„should my gentle child be Spared
To manhood's years like me,
A - holier and awiser man
I trust that he will be ;
And whertl. look into his eyes;
And - stroke his thoughtful brow,
I dare riot think what I should feel._ •
, Were I.to lose him now:r •
I have a son, a second son,
A simple child of three ;
I'll not declare, how bright and fair, ,
His little features be,
Ho' silver sweet those tones of his,
- When he prattles'on toy knee :
I do not think his light blue eye
Is like hiS brother's keen:
Nor his brow * so full of childish thought,
• As LI has ever been ; •
But his little heart 's a fountain 'pure ,
Of kind and tender feeling,
' And his every look's a gleam of light,
Rich slepths.of love rev,ealing.-
When he walks with me, the country folk,
-Who pass us in' the street,
Will shout fur joy, and bless. my boy,
He looks so. mild dud sweet.
A play-fellow is he to all,
And yet with cheerful tone
Will sing his little song of love,
When left to sport alone.
His presence is like sunshine sent,
To gladden home and heartb,
To comfort us in all our griefs,,; -
And sweeten all OUT mirth. ' r
Should he grow up to riper years
-God grant his heart may prove
As sweet a home for heavenly grace,
• As now for earthly love:
And if beside his grave, the tears
Our aching eyes trru . st dim,
God comfort us for alt the the_ love
That we shall lose in him!
•
1 have son, a third sweet 68n,
His age I cannot tell,
For they reckon not by years and months
. Where ho has gone tlx dwell. •
To us, far fourteen 'anxious months,
His infant smiles were given,
'Arid then he bade farewell to earth,
And
. werit to live in heaven:
1 cannot till what form he is,
;, What looks lie wearoh now;
Nor guess how bright a glory crowns
Ai-. z h
br
_is shining scrap .roar;
The thoughts that 1111 his_rinless soul,
The bliss which he Both fell,
Are numberdwith the ri.‘.cret things,
Which 'God - will net reveal.
But I kiow (for God bath told me this,)
That he is now at rest, ,
Where (niter blesed irirants be,
On their,Savior'S'briing breast ; •
I know his spirit , feels 'no more,.
This weary load of flesh,,
His sleep is blessed with endless dreams
Of joy forever fresh.
I knows the angels fold him close,
Beneath their glittering wings,
Aud soothe him, with a'song that breathes
Of heaven's divinest things.
I know that we shall meet our babe,
, (His mother dear and I,)
Where God for` aye shall wipe away
•
MI tears from every eye.
Whate'er befalls his brethren twain, -
• His bliss can never cease,
Their lot may here to grief and fear, ,
But his is certain peace. .
It may be that the tempter's wiles
Their souls from bliss may sever,
But, if our own 'poor faith fail not, •
Ile must ours for ever. -
When we think of what our darling ii,
•
—And' what he still must he;
When we muse on.that.wOrld's•perfect taint,
And this woild's misery,
Whin we groan beneath this load of sin,/ '
And feel this grief and pain,
Ohl we'd rather lose our Other two '
` Than have him here again. ' • -
.[From the DemocratiO Review, fa.z:JDeel.e.mber.l
Anecdote; of WaFhintt9,
During a protracted so ours in , the
Old Dominion, immediately stiliirequent,
_to the year,lBo2,l once took a leisure,:
ly tour to Mona% Vernon,::and, 'thence
to the birth -place and, other see:T . 6 . l:6f
the early life •of Washington; for The
purpose, not only, of gratifying my
feelings by viewing , places hallo / wed by
, the memory of a e man ivhose name and
, deeds had, horn My childhood, occupi
ed so much space in my mind, but
also to see what new Incidents,
connected with his
,priyate' character
might yet be gleaned - among the old
inhabitants who had personally *town
him. t end tt was in this ramble; made
interesting and pleasant from the nature
or its object, and the attentions of .the
most hospitable people on earth, that I
fell in with a 'venerable and highly- intel
lig,ent relative of Washington, .Whom I
soon found to be, from having, lived
- .much in the General's family, and act
ed.eor sonic-years as his private secre
tary, a ricli depository 0f.,-What 1 was
'anxious to learn; and from !rim I ob
tained among many others that less in
terested me, the'eollowing reminiscen
ces, which, I believe, have never been.
published, but which may nevertheless
be relied on as minutely correct. .
`t On .one of Washington's return
visits, to Mount Vernon, while Corn" ,
mander-in-chief of 'the revolutionary
armies;" said my informant, whom I
shall 'call Captain L.,
.• he came to
,Fredericksburg to pay 'his respects to
his aged mother. And when about to
take his leave of her, lie brought in a
small bag of silver dollars; and placing
their on the table before her, said:
" titre, mother,_not knowing when I
may be, permitted to visit you again, I
hive brought you these, to be used by
you as your comforts "shalt dictate.—
And 1 'lope you will be free to accept
and use them."
" You was always good and dutiful
to me, Geerge," replied she with emo
tion; " and I have often taxed myself,
in, your ;absence of late years,' with
being backtVard • in making suitable
acknowledgments to you,.and resolved
within myself that When I next saw
you, I would have a mere familiar talk
with yeti, and tell you how • much
think of your ,kind, very kind atten
tions. But it. has always /happened..
that when' I again found myself in your
'presence, the thought of your elevatiog
by your countrymen, or something else,
which I cannot define, has prevented
me from talking to,Yon, as I should to
my other children
" Washington attempted some play
ful reply, but could not , succeed in
disernaiiig„eyen his mother of the awe
which his presence, never failed to in
spire.in the bosoms of all who ap
proaChed
" Washington, while in' the army,
was known to be exceedingly careful
of human lives; and he applied the
prinCiple to the brute creation, by ab
staining from ihe'destruction of all ani
naals,. however inferior, whenever •it
could be done amSistently with the
safetyand absolute wants of man, with
-unusual scrupulousness. As I was
once walking With hirri over th y e grounds
of Mount Vernon, a sine!l snake, of a
handless speeies,aprared in our path.
I instinctly lifted my hue' to crush it
when he instantly caught my arm, in a
tone of earnest expostulation,' exclaiin
ed; " Stay, sir ! is there not room
enough in the, world for you and that
-harmless little reptile ?. Remeniber,
that life is all—every thing to the crea
ture, and cannot be.unnecessarily taken
without indirectly
. impugning its Crea
tor, who bestowed it to be enjoyed„
with its appropriate-pleasures, through
its natural term of existence."
The same system and order which
was exhibited by Washington in all his
public transactions, was seen in all his
prmate acts and domestic arrangements;
even his charities, which were it
stinted, were nicely systematized. It
was his custom, in years of plenty, to
hoard up grain against times of scarci
ty. And when such times arrived he
threw open his storehohse to the poor;
and however irresponsible they might
be, he alwaTs :made it a point to sup
ply them in preference to others • with
all the grain they needed at the old or
ordinary prices, for which he regularly
took . their bonds or notes, but never
demanded payment. , .
" Some writers, in treating of the
'private chatacter of General. Washingf
( 4
ton, intimate
. that he was a mano
warm temper, which wool often have
exhibited itself but for his great self
con mand: Ills self command was uti:
doubtedly ; great,fiut 'I do not think he
he had, often to eeicise it to prevent
any s outbreake o 1 passion. On the
contrary V believe him to, have been'
mild, and not easily piffled , Certainly,
'quite as much so as men in general. I
never saw him angry but once in my
life.• And this was considered So rei
markable a thing by myself, as well
as his fainiltr, that althoughwe knew
he- had ooa cause to be, proioked, of
such-at least as would have c . irOvolted,
ell moat other men to anger, we were
, ,
yet gteatly surprised, and looked upon
it arquite an 'anomaly in the Genetal's
life.' . . ft happened while he wag Presi
dent-,and 'travelling in his carriage, with
a small retinue, of outriders. froM Meant'
Vernon to . PhilidelPhia.' It was iiitrifig
the , first day 'of. oui:journey, and ,we
were passing through -the barrens of
Ii
.
Maryland, where,' it intervals of a few
miles : the solinidaolthe road ,
lieyed at that-titee.bra set of lOw
erns Oi . groggeriesi et Whieh - we did:not

thoughtless' young-man In, our., train, ,
whO hy.favor had been :admitted, inta
'the family as a; sort of ieittleman-!at ,
tendant, Who seemed much more,
inclined to - patronize these pleCesot;
The Geheial t by - his request, had.,peri.
Mined him.% ride a - favorite mare
which'. he had tamed on his plantation,
and of which he was exceedingly care
the animal.being almost .as : slight
in proportions as a roebuck, - and • very
- high ppirited." But ,the young fellow,'
notwithstandingthe intimationa.he had .
received at starting, to deal - gently with
'lter,:was apparently bent on testing her
speed and other qualities,' and that too
in.a manner little likely. An meet with
favor in a man of. Washington's high
sense of property. • •
He would leave the train, and rid
ing up to . one Of these liquoring estab . -
lishmenis, there remain until we were
out of sight; wtien he would come up
upon the run, ride with us awhile; :toil
gallop on forward to the next. • This.
Ice repeated three times, the - last :of
which brought the mettlesome creature
to a fain, and evidently much fretted
her. At -the' first transgression thus
committed against the General's orders
respecting the Mare, as Well as against
his known sense of property, he seem
ed surprised, looking as if he ,wonder
ed at the young man's temerity, and
contented himself with throviiag after
him a glance of displeasure. At the
second, he appeared highly" incensed,
although he said nothing, and repress
ed his intliilrr, ation, acting .as . if he
thought this must be the last offence,
for the punishment of which he chose.
'a private occasion.
.13et as • the offen
der rode up the third time, Washing
hastily threw open the ' carriage
•window, and 'asking the driver to halt,
sharply ordered the former along-side.;
when, with uplifted cane, and a tone!l
and emphasis which startled us all, and
made the culprit shrink and tremble
like a leaf, he exclaimed, " Look-you.
sir! - Your conduct is insufferable!—
Fall in behind' there, sir, and as sure es
you leave us again, I-will break every
bone in your skin l" ,
"It is needless, I presume, to say
that - the offence -was not repeated, or
that the young gallant needed any more
taming.

cap, yet _ constituting, though not one
word could have been spared, a con
veyance of real estate to the grantee
and heirs, which as far 'as could be
perceived, was perfectly legal, " Here
is a deed of a plantation from General.
WaShington to me, which I show you,
not only as-a curiosity of itself, but for
the sake of introduction the pleasant little
incident out of which it originated.—
Soon after leaving the General's em
ployment, I chanced to be riding .
through the interior Of Virginia, when
I came across a deserted plantation, the
the situation and general appearance of
Which, though overrun with weeds and
busffee, yet pleased me so much that I,
took the first opportunity to make some
inquires concerning its ownership, &e.
andwas told that it was told that it was
supposed to belong to General Wash
ington. The night after I reached
home, I went to sleep thinking of this
plantation, and wondering thati, who
supposed I knew all Washington's
lands, never heard of if before ; when I
happened, I know not why, to dream
that the General made a present of it to
me. • The next day, as it further hap
pened, I rode over to Mount Vernon,'
the GeneraLbeing, then at home: A ftf-r
attending to the more immediate object
of my visit, I asked. him' if 'he owned
ttelt a plantation as the.onel had seen,
now describing it . to him. At first he
replied in the negative, but-soon rising'
and going to - consult a book in •whivit
he kept a 'record of all his deeds, he
said.he did own this tract of land, but
though of Value, he had entirely over
looked it for some veers. „.
" Well, Goneral," said I. bantering. :
" I dreamed last night that. you gave
me that platitation."
" Washington, contrary to his usual
habit, laughed outright, and ohser.ved.
You-did not dream Mount Vernon
away from me, did you sir ?"
O no, I was not so grasping as
thatohotigh I honestly had the. dream,"
I replied, in the 'same vein of .pleasan
try ; when nothing more being .said,
the affair on my part passedNfrom my
mind as a joke, and was forgotten. - It
seemed, however, that my dream was
not so vain as one as I had supposed,
for the Rot morning, as .1 Was taking
my leave, the General droped a folded
paper into my hat, carelessly remark=
ing that I could examine it at my leis
ure opportunity., • I did so, and to my
agreeable surprise; found it to be. this
very deed, made out, probably; after.. I
had retired the night before, and Con-
Vey ibg, 'as-you Perceive, for . the consid
e.riaiou of Oatural affection. the valuable
plantation I had discovered." •

lowing anecdote : ; j ", -
A Missionary, at an interview with
One of the Peaces,
"spoke of
certain gentleinan in the't Taitecl States.
~.The Prince said, “Alt, /wish I were
a gentleman." . -
The Missionary was *prised, and
asked him if he had not great wealth and
plenty'otservants. ,
" Yes," said the Prinee, "but . thfit
does MA Make me a gentleman.",
" What - does, then" replied the
sionary, " make a gentleman !" •
"'A proper number of ! .wives," said
the Prince.
,
" `Why, host , many wives have you?"
" Only two," said the Prince, " hut f
must have six before I can be a gentle
man.'
The idea of it; reqiiirint; six wire's to
make a gentleman, created no little mirth
among the female portion of *the audi
ence. There' were, some hard looks at
the baehelors, as much as to say, "What
'miserable creatures ,must you be then ?"
A OM' Jogs.--The following is
told as a good joke pn board a ship :
= "There was a lazy fat fellow among
us who was always lolling.or sleeping
.on the.hen Coops, Upon Whom. we resol
ed to play. a trick : so seizing. an oppor
tunity when he was
,snugi on his cus
tomary roost, we placed ourselves With
buckets of water just over him, At a
signal given, he was jerked off the coop,
'and soused from- head tole% with such
a full and successive ,torrent of the
briny fluid, accompanied by a cry, 'of
" man overboard ! Rorie ?, Rope.!
DOwn With the helm !" &e. that he
'actually struck out, as if swimming for
hiS life, till alailute in supply of water,
suceeeded• by pealS of laughter, brought
him to a sense of his situation. •

deuil3 and no mistake.-
DOMESTIC LIFE.-All the virtues. of
domestic life' are lessons which are
- taught in the Christian school. It is
like the sun, who though tip regulates
'and leads on the year, dispensing life
and light to all the planetary wochloret
diWains not to( cheriLh and beautify
the flower -which opens its bosom to
his breast ; ,so the Christian religion,

knowledge of salvation, and to be our
guide to happiness on high, yet also.
regulates our conversation in die world
eitends its benign influence to every
circle of society, and 'peculiarly diffu
seth its blessed fruits in the paths •of
domestic life.
GOOD. -A. hanerous fellow, a car
penter'being summoned as a witness on
a trial for an assault, one .'of the coml.
set, who was very much given to brow
beat the evidence asked him what dis
tance he was from the Parties when, he'
saw the defendant strike the plaintiff.
The carpenta—answered. " Pray thee,
fellow," says the counsel, "how is it,
possible that you can he so exact as to
the distance?" " 1 thought says the
carpenter, that some fool or other.might
ask• me, and sa I 'measured it.",
13ehold, my Flora,
how glorious nature looks in her bloom
The tree.t, ark tilled with blossoms, the

flowers." .
Yes, Charles, I was tirinking of
the same thing. These flowers are
dandelions, and when they are gathered
and put into a pot, with a piece of good
fat pork, they wake the best greens in
the word!,"
WOMAN'S CILEERFULNESS.—Concer
ning nothing do we come t 6 more false
conclusions, and make more false steps,
than concerning, woman's cheerfulness.
,Ah !, how many of 'these affectionate
