A GOOD STORF.
My father was a country lawyer of a.ion-
1 siderable erhinence. , His family was,4d,
j but hot wealthy, lu early life he retried
one of the co-heiresses of a city banrj
by ante uaptial agreement her propy waa
strictly secured to any hairs she mfcblhave.
She died while I her only child, vs yet an
held

by mjrjather in trust for my use until I
aheuld reach the agD wbico it would
come into my possession. .
I was left to the care o servants, princi
pally, ior my father thogh vary fond of me,
wasalwaya, immersei in business, and
spent but- tittle tine in the splandid
but comfortless horr orer which no mis
tress presided , .
I could not remain thos. My annt St.
Clair relumed rom Enrope when I was
about fourteen. She came with her family
to Verdhill, by my fathers invitation, to re
main until her house in town could be put
in order, lor her reception. She saw and
was astonished at my wild appearance and
hoyendish manners. She quickly decided
that her sisrer'a child, and a great heiress,
must not be allowed to remain thus, and it
was arranged that I should accompany her
to the city snter at once opon the. course of
instruction mo necessary ;80d to long neg
lected. - - -
' Ai tbe age of sixteen oramers my ftont
had aocceded in having : rae ''finished"

beaatifu!, wUltul, Btterlj ielfish, and a dar
otee of the art of flirting. So accomplished
I went to my old home, and my aged fath
er who welcomed me, with pride and fond
ness! A gay party went with me whom I
was to make the round cf the watering pla

The Sabbath before we were to start, we

never forget that day. Aa we all. cat silent

he commenced to read, the deep mefiioas

charm. I listened entranced. A "'
From that instant I saw nothing, felhoth
ing but his presence, and when the sYvice
and the sermon Were ended-aoi he
sank down in the last, silent prayjr, it was
as if the Bun had been withdrawn front my
world, and I left in darkness. '
Mechanically I followed my Trend into
the porch. A sudden -shower was gather

Mr. Fletcher had been invited j m7

The morning I left home my father men
tioned, casually, that he bad heard that Mr.
Fletcher was very ill. I felt rayeelf grow
pale and Cold, but I elifed my emotions,
and in a constrsined voice expreed my
regret at these tidings, and begged my
father to provide the invalid with every
heeded luxury from Verdhill, and to inform
me in bis letters ol his state.
Two years later 1 was in Italy with my
husband the husband . of my Aunt St.
Clair's choice. I had made a grand match
but I was not happy. Diamonds bound an
aching brow, and flashed above a throbbing
heart. I was cold and unloving to my hus
band, and he returned my indifference with
scorn. A lew months had brought os to
this pass that he lived oul of doors, amidst
pleasures ia which I bad no share and
which I shrunk from even guessing at, and
I went alone into society, a mark in my
beaatyi for continental gossip.
One night I paw my husband making his
way loword me through a crowded saloon.
I pressed forward for I felt ihe need cf hi
protection Irora advance that were insults,
though perhaps not intended as such. He
drew my arm in his, did not apeak until wa

Then he told me tha: he had been om

and that be had come from this me I

would tell me no more, and when I refused
to go, be compelled me, almost by force, to

It was to Mr. Fletcher we were going.
We found him in humble lodgings, for be

Years jave passed since that hour. My

' "By the blessing of our fathers' God we
had prospered, and the nations of tbe earth
were filled or filling with the light from our
lustrous' pathway. There were errors, dif
Acuities, exceptions, as in all things hn

blood of thousands of such men as Reno,

i dead.
We shall never, never make anew Tjmon
better than, the old ; n3vcr construct out of
the Iragments anything like the original.
Let us save not remake. Let us preserve,
not to destroy and attempt to rebuild, Let
us who are at home, citizens who are to be
the recipients of whatever go?d comes.ffom
this costly sacrifice, let ua consider what is

sacrifice once made. This has not been
made for a new government It has not
been giren for reconstruction. It has not
been made for a new country, new tradi

the American Union and Constitution for
which these brave men have fallen, and. if
we abandon that then indeed lha aactiuce

"There is somethig then for us to do.

The love of country is as natural and ,
holy an affection aa the love of parents or :
self. The tenderest 'recollections of our
childhood, the bright hopes of youth, the
earnest struggles of mature years with all
that we have loved and won and lost there,
in, circle around the name of country with
a sweet but melancholy 'radiance. In our
country is included all that we hold holiest
arid dearest parents, brothers, sisters,
home, wife, children, and the green graves
of our fathers In our country we enjoy a
larger self.' Her fame is ours. Her great
ness is oors. Her honor is ours. Her glory
is ours. She is all ours and our love for
her is simply an enlarged, unselfish, gsner.
ons eelf love.
We love our Isnd "because tt is our own,
And scorn to give aught other reason why.
It is true, therefore, as Vatlel justly ob
serves, that he who tarnishes the glory of a
nation does it an irreparable wrong. The j
injury is "not'only lhat the nation is lowered j
in the eyes of other nations, but that 'it is
lowered in its ow'n.eyes. Its people are de
prived of one of their chief moral blessings,
which is that of being able to delight in tbe
unsullied fame and honor of their country.
In the degradation of his country every cit
izen is degraded, and in her dishonor every
citizen is shamed.
Yet even this is not the worst. Argne as
we may against the doctrine cf the ol J toast
(and in "truth it has been made to sanction
many crimes), there is still a soft something
in our hearts that says: "Oor Country,
right or wrong !" And were it possible for
human nfcto re to be always well balanced
so that this should mean the love of coun
try in spite of every loss of glory, and in
spite ol every blot on her fair fame, the sen
timent would be deserving of all accepta
tion. But in the nature ot nines it means
much more than this. What we should de
nonnce as infamy in an indinerent person,
in the object of our love, fwe first endure,
then pity, then embrace." And hence
the public morals be debauched this very
love of country, which in the design of
kind t rovidence is meant to purify and
raise the aspirations of the people, is trans
formed into an inurement of degradation.
Whatever be the morals of a country in its
corporate capacity will infallibly be the
morals ot its citizens, and whoever lowers
or exalts the tone of public virtue, at tbe
same time plants the seeds of good or ill in
every family within its borders.
Till within the past three jeara tie peo
ple of this country gloried in her, both be
cause she was their country, and because
ber fame waa still unspotted with reproach.
How have we been robbed of this our
best inheritance by the unscrupulous
mountebanks who, since then, have con
trolled our destinies ! What are the main
points of our public morals under Mr. Lin
coln's Administration ?
First. Gross buffoonery end heartless
ness, illustrated by the President cf the
United States himself. The man who has
been joking amid tbe derolation of the land,
and who could whistle negro airs among
the onburiad corpses of his butchered coun
trymen, is hardly fit to bo the representa
tive and model of twenty millicas of peo
ple. Yet his vile-example has been sedu
lously followed. Congress has become as
foul in language as a brothel ; and we dare
say that never in tbe history of this Repub
lic was liccntiousnesf, levity of speech:and
callousness to human suffering as rife among
us as to-day. A common sajing lately has
been this : "Why, Grant has certainly not
lost more thn forty thousand men, and we
can soon make cp that I" Tbe people now
can talk with apathy of forty thoasand
graves, because tbey can supply material to
fill as many more.
Second. BraggadoCid With cowardly sub
serviency to foreign powers. We have bul
lied England ' and made mean ecologies
therefor. We have bullied all the world on
the Monroe doctrine, and then taken off our
hats to France with every sentiment of kind
neis when she trod it under foot. Nay, we
have carried our subserviency to foreign
powers to the extent of shameless treach-
ery. ve have delivered our neip;ess rei
ugees into the jaws of certain death. A fu
gitive from the distractions of unhappy
Mexico has been eurreadered to Cottinas,
by whom be was mercilessly ahot, end in
this city of New York, a subject of the
Crown of Spain has been arrested in defi
ance of all law and humanity, end without
known accusation, without even tbe decent
form of trial, amnggled aboard a loreign
ship and Carried to the lender mercies of
the Governor of Cnba, from this glorious
"reloge of ihe oppressed of the earth."
Third. Utter falsity in every act of Gov
ernment officials. The iuppretsh t!ri and
suggtstio falsi are resplendent virtues when
compared with the astounding lies perpe
trated by this) Administration. From Mr.
Lincoln's deceptive Inaugural Address down
to Mr. Seward' use of a clumsy forgery to
dupe a aister nation, the whole public bu
siness of the country has been carried, on
through one iafernal tissue of mendacity.
Fourth. Wild rapacity tn parasitea and
agents' of the Government. Republicans
declare that in the Treasury Department
there is shameless profligacy, and that in
the Navy there ia no bound to the robbery
knd peculation. Aa to the Army, tt is only
too true that New Orleans under the Hay-
nau of America waa not much worse in this
respect than scores of other places. The
salary of public' ofEcer haj come to be with
many a mere perquisite). , Their una pay
is derive freia thafv'
lore of Coontfy.
And fifth, we r.eed but mention theaow- I
lawlessness ot tne Aoministrs.ion. i.on,g ,
ag0 We knew their purpose to destroy what . .
they declared to be a covenant with death ,
and an agreement with hell. We were pre- ( as
pared to hear them say, as they do say, that ; of
the Constitution has been abrogated. A but
lawless war, a lawless enrrency, a lawless '
conscription, lawless arrests, law'leVs 'eiz-1
ores and imprisonments, lawless confica- !
lions, lawless elections and lawless inter- i
ferer.ee with elections, lawless proclima- j
titrt fan rl ihn full lPtArtion of an unlimited
Right of lawlessness theee are the fruits
of an Administration which commenced it
reign on an cnconstituticnal a'ni law 'ess
platform.
Such is the atmosphere of public mora!
which pollutes our own lives, and our chil
dren's ! Such are the foul impurities our
children are to learn to tolerate, defend, ap
prove, if they are to retain the priceless
boon of love of country I If the reign of
this fell Administration shou'd be pro'onged
or foar years more, farewell forever to ihe
virtue of America. Buffoonery and gross
ness, braggadocio, treaefcery and meanness.
falsity, rapacity, and lawlessness will be
established in the nature cf the people, and
sustained there till the magnitude of crime
destroys in them tbe heaven born love of
country.

But a few weeks ago President Lincoln
committed the very sarno crime for wbVch
Rnnrhar had been found cuilty and sen-
tenced to prison for one year. By a writ
ten Termlt and under a flag of truce fiom
the President himself, Mrs. White, a sister
of Mrs. Lincoln. fwho was a notorious reb
el sympathizer andspy.and whose husband
is a General in the rebel army,) was seat
home, to Georgia, in ealety. The Atlanta
(Georgia) papers announced her arrival in
that city.and congratulated their readers on
ihe "success cf her mission." She took
with her from the north six large trunks,
filled with rebel uniforms, percussion caps,
medicines, surgical instruments, and other
matters calculated to give "aid and comfort
to the enemy." These articles, amounting
to some 510,000, she had with her at Presi
dent Lincoln's bouse, and he must hare
known all about them, and that her hus
band was a rebel General. Tbe uniform
Mrs. White purchased for her husband, the
Georgia papers say, is the most elegant and
costly one in the Confederate army. Mrs.
W. also took with her St,000 in gold, prob
ably a loan from her siner, Mr. Lincoln.
And yet ibis rebel spy (Mrs. White,) was
passed through the lines by Mr. Lincoln's
written order ! If Boucher, then, is to sdf
fer a year's imprisonment "for aiding Miss
Lizzie Murrav (a spvl in passing inio the
rebel army," we itisist that Justice requirea
that the same sentsnce be passed upon
Abraham Lincoln for aiding Mrs. J. Todd
White "in passing into tbe rerel army.r
This would be fair, right and proper.

ft hat Is Arabia
Arabia is not what Americans habitn
conceive it to be, a mere sandy desert
sands generally are, traversed by bf
half starved horsemen, with two
sacried cities, and a port which A
American frigate can reduce to reason bj
bomoardment. It is a vast, though secltt- a
ded peninsula, with an 'area cf 100,000 iqv
miles greater than that ol Europe west, of
the Vistula gre-ter that is, than the tsrri-
lories of four of the five powers, with Ger-
many, Spain, Portugal, Greece, Scandana
via, Poland and Italy adiied thereto. . This
enormous region", so far frm being a mere
sandy plain, is traversed by high raagas ;f.-r
mountains filled with broad plateaus; many ,
ol them as wide as European kingdoms,
and full ot magnificeut, though dreary. and .
awe-inspiring scerieVy. The highest Arab y
tribes aud the point is one too often for-,
g0ttentre mountaineers, share in the .
fervid imagination., the brooJing and mel- ;
aneholy thought, which have in all ages
distinguished men bred on the higher re
gions cf the earth. Eve the aridity ot tne
soil of Arabia; thdugh graat, is a political
fact, seriously exaggerated, partly because f
the districts nearest to civilization are the , ,
worst, partly because travellers select the ,
winter for explorations a time when even
the Tertile plain of 'upper Italy looks hide-i ;
ously desolate : bot chiefly because ihe Ea-,. .
ropean mind baa a difficulty realizing; .
territorial vastness or comprehending how ..
enormous nay be the aggregate of p tchef .
of cultivation pra1 over a peninsula like), ,
Arabia. When some two years ago, the, r
Governor of Aden, was permitted to visit
Labej, he, filled, like a'.r&hri Englishmen,
with the ''idea" orArabia, waa startled to
find himself only a few miles foe his otu .
crackling cindera .midst pleasant cr:i
lands and smiling villages ia which dwelt
a population showing every eign of pro- .
perityexd cont-nl. There are thousands.,,
of such spots in Arabia, to which the eter- ,
nal boundary of the desert blinds all but,

Mr. Twombley had drani bn: six glasses

of discretion, be returned heme at the rea- ;

when she discovered that he had hie bom

keep his feel out of the bci.
"My dear," said Twombley, in an apoi
Cgelic tone, "skese me. How I came to
forget my boots I can't conceive, for Pra
just as sober as ever I was in my life !"
Mr. Twombley sat on tbe side of the bed,
and made an effort to pull of his right boot.'
The attempt was successful, though it '
brousht hira to the fioor. Oa regaiaing hi

open. As he was eure he shut the coor
on coming in, he was astonished, and dark
as it was in the room he couldn't be mis
taken, be lelt certain. Mr. Twombley dag
gered towards tha door to close it ; when he '
