THE LITTLE. STEP-SON,
Br MILE. AMELIA B. IVELIVE:
I hme a little step-son, the loveliest thing alive,
A noble, sturdy boy is he, _and•yet he't only five;
His smooth cheek hath a bloomy glo‘y, his eyes
are black aajet,
And his lips'are like lA% o rose buds all tremulous
and ti-et., • -
His days plisoff in Sunshine, in laughter, arid] in
sorig.-
As Careless as a summer rill tlratsing,s itself along,
For like a pretty fairy tale that's all tou quickly
told;
Is the young life of a little one, that's only five
years old.
He's'np with morning's rosy-ray asinging witlithe
lark; - • •
'Alere'er the flowers are freshest, 'where* the
g rass is green;
Withlight locks waving on: the wind, his fairy
form is seen; -
Amidthe. whistling March winds, amid the April
• show ers.
He warbles with the singing birds, and blossonis
With the flowers:
He cares not for the suiumer heat, he cares . not for
the 'cold. •
3fy sturdy little step-son that's only fr've years old.
How touching 'tis to see 14111 clasp his dimpled
hands in praver,
And raise his little rosy face With reverential air!
How simple is his eloquencel how soft his accents
fail!
When pleading with the Ring 'of kings to love
and bless vs all.-
And when from prayer he hounds away in inno•
. • cence and Mr •
,- • •
The blessings -of a ,smiling God goes with the
sinless boy;
A little lambkin of the flock, within the Sat
fold,
Isle my lovely step-son, that's only live years old.
I have not told you of our home, that in the sum
mer . hOura,
Stands in its simple modesty, half hid among the
flowers.
I have not said a single word about our mines of
wealth—
Our treasures are this little boy, contentment,
peace and health;
For even a lordly hall to us, would be a voiceless
place.
Without the gush of his glad voice, the gleams of
his bright face,
And many a courtly pair, I ween, would give
their gems and gold, •
For a noble happy boy like ours, some fOin or live
years old.
PATRICK HENRY
We find in the .Baptist Register the following,
and to us, it is new: It appears that, soon after
Henry's noted case of "tobacco" and preserves, as
it was sometimes called, he heard of a case of
oppression for conscience's sake. The English
church, having been established by law in Virgi
nia, became, as all establishments are wont to do,
exceedingly intolerant towards other sects. In
prosecution of this system of conversion, three
Baptist clergymen had been indicted at Fredericks
burgh,. for preaching the gospel of the son of God,
contrary to the statute. Henry, hearing of this,
rode some fifty miles to volunteer his services in
defence of the . opPressed. He entered the court,
being unknown to all persons save the bench and'
the bar, while the indictment was being read by
the clerk. He sat within the bar until the reading
was finiShedc,and the king's attorney had conclu
ded some remarks in defence of the prosecution,
when he rove, reached out his hand for the paper,
and without more ceremony, proceeded as follows:
• • "May it please Yon worships: I think I heard
read by the proSeca*, as I entered this.home, the ,
paper I now dolt! in ;my hand. If I have rightly
understood; the Idng's attorney of the colony has
framed an indj.ctment for the purpose of arraigning
and punishing by imprisonment, three inoffensive
persons befo're the- bar of this court for a crime of
great magnitude—as disturbers of the peace. May
it please the court, What did I hear read ? ' Bid I
hear it distinctly, or w-as.it-a rnitiipke. of my own?
Did hehear n es.pression; as if a crime;thaat th es e
men, whom' your-worships ' are about to try for'
misdemeanot, are Charged - With what?" and, con
tinuing in a low, solemn, heavy tone, "preaching
the gospel of the son of God?" Pausing amidst
the most profound silence and breathless astonish
ment, he slowly waved the paper threetimeS around
his heard, when tilting his hands and eyes to heav
en,-with *uliar and impressive energy, be ex
claimed “great The exclarnation--- - the burst
of feeling from the audience—were all-overpower
ing. Mr. Henry resumed:
"May it please your worships: in alday like this
truth is about to burst her fetters—uhen
mankind .is: about to be aroused, to claim .natural
and alienable rightswheafthe yoke of oppression,
that has reached the wilderness of America; and the
unnatural alliance of eclesiastical and. civil power
are about to be discovered—at such a period when
liberty—liberty of conscience—is about to awake
from her shimberings, and enquire into the reason
of such charges as I find, exhibited here today in
this indictment!'' Anether fearful pause, when the
speaker alternately cast his sharp piercing eyes on
the court and the prisoners, and resumed: "If I
am not deceived, according to the contents of the
paper I novi, hold in my hand, these uteri are ac
cused of preaching the gospel of the Son of God!
.Great God Another long pause, while he again
waved the iindictment around his head—while a
deeper impression was made on the auditory.
Resuming his speech—'May it pleate your wor
ships: there are Viioibi in the history of man,
when corruption and depravity have so hang deba
sed the human character, that man sinks under the
weight of the oppress . ar's hands—becomes his ser
vile, his,abject slave:he licks the hand that smiles
him; he bows in passive obedience to the mandates I
of the despot; and this state of servility, he receives!
his fetters of perpetual bondage. But may it please
your worships, such a day has passed away! From
'that period when our fathers left the land of their
nativity for Settlement in these American wilds; for
liberty—for civil and religious liberty—for liberty
of conscience to Worship their Creator according
to their own concePtions of heaven's revealed will
—from the moment they placed their feet upon the
American continent, and, in the deeply imbedded
forest, sought au asyluin, from that moment despot
:. ism was Crushed, the fetters of darkness were
`broken and heaven decreed that man should be
- free—fice to worship God according to the Bible.'
-Were it not for this, in vain were all their suffer-
• ing and bloodshed to subjugate this new world if
we, their offspring, must still be oppressed and
persecuted: But, may it please your worships,
perrnit me to inquire once more, for What-are these
men about to be Stied? This paper says, for preach
.ing the gospel of the Savior to Adam's fallen racer
• And, in tones of thunder, he exclaimed, "Ina/
'laws hare they riolatedr While the third time, iu
a low, dignified manner, he lilted his eyes to heav
en, arid waVed the indictment around iris head.—
`The cotirt, i and audience were now wrought up to
the most intense pitch of excitement. The face
of the prosecuting, attorney, was palled ;and ghast
ly, and he appeared unconscious that , his whole
frame was' agitated with alarm; tvhile. the judge,
in a tremulous voice, pat aa end to the scene ; now
becoming excessively painful, by the declaration,
"Sheriff diScharge those men."

fecting story among the court reports of-the New

flash came over her white cheeks, and' those large

CORRESPONDENTS.
In reference to communications which may op.
pear in this paper, we have one or two remarks to
make. We will insert none without the name of
the author being first made known to us, and
when inserted, must always he taken as expres
sii.e of. the views (1 the trritir, and not the editor
of this paper, unless the views so expressed are.ed
itorially remarked upon and approved.
The New Tariff--The Valuation,
In the discussion of the valuation question we
have been guided; by
.the plain provisions of the
law on the subject. We have not ; like the editors
of the ! Gazette and Journal, relied upon bold !
Lions; we have published entire the sections of the
law regulating the apprairement of articles and
the assessment of duties, so that the people can
read and judge for themselves.
The Itith section requires the appraiser to levy
the duty nut merely upon the "snout" rabic cr
price of the article in the foreign market, but upon
a sum thus made up..
Ist. "The actual' foreign "market value."
1241. "All costs and charges--exceld insurance
3d. "Commissions at the usual rates."
Upon these three items the duty is assessed.—
The first item is the fi,nig,n marke rake, and if the
duty was to be levied upon the Foreign rotor, as is
contended by the Gazette and Journal, it would, of
course, to levied (hay upon it.. But this is not the
ease. The Ariwrican appraiser, after the atticls
has been received, examines the invoice, and if the
foreign market value or price entered upon 'it, is
found correct, he then to that actual foreign mar
ket value or price, "ADDS ALL COSTS. CHAR.
GES AND COMMISSIONS."
It is, therefore, perfectly, ridiculous to eay that
the duty is lev:ed upon the Foreign value of the
article. -
Thz, Tariff—Ad valorem Duties.
An intelligent officer in the New York Custom
House, in a letter to a United States senator, gives
a number of important per cents. connected with
the different modes of assessing dutiesi—he says:—
"A very large portion of silk fabrics, such as
gauzes, fancy handkerchief. scarfs, shawls, ,Sec.,will
not average, under the present specific duty, more
than S or 10 per cent. —say from 4 to 15i and these
are articles, too, of the most luxurious kind. The
The expensite article of silk lace, of which im
mouse quantities are used by tie wealthy, does
not pay, on an average, more than 7 per cent.---1
Duties under this sy'stern arc also, from the very
nature of things-, unequal at different custom-hou-
I will name a single article. Silk veils Svc
pass under the head of articles made up in part by
hand, the edging of purling being sewed on; and
they arc of course charged wifh 40 per cent. At
Boston, I understand, the same goods are passed
simply as silk, pay of course by weight, and will
average. perhaps, 3or S per cent. Articles par
tially made by hand, are thus 'nails. to pay a differ.
,
cot duty at aimost exery custom hOuse in the
country.
-"lne opportunities for fraud, on goods paying
specific duties, are as great on measurement as on
weighable or other goods. The correctness rests
entirely with a single examiner. „form easy
matter to make an error of two or 14 , ',thes in
the width of the article, which on tiickage of
cottons, or of cottogall& - ilk, makes a great diCirr.
"My attention was not long since, - -ettlied. -to the
length of some.piece.goodS,:*4.: ere, erivexami,
nation, found to exceed t InvOice some 3dt
yards. It is impossible to rvature all goods pass , '
ing here. We must, unless there is suspicious cir
cumstances, take the marked number of yards, arid I
Ibis makes the opportunities of defrauding very
great. The truth is, it is
,far less difficult for an
experienced examinecto judge of the true mane of
goods, than to detect all the ways arid means di.
vised for cheating in some other way than under.
valuing. If an appraiser's clerk would allow him
self to be cheated in the value of an article, i.e
would, with the same appliances, assist in making
short weight-or measure- The latter act he could
perform with' much less fear of detection than he
could the former;. for, in one case he alone sees the
weight or measure, while a dozen or more notice
the price at which the goods are charged.
"I only instance these things to show that the
opportunities' for defrauding under specific. are
even greater than under the ad valorem system.
"In reference to expenses. There are, I-believe
forty-one weighers, measurer's, and gatig,ers, each
receiving $1,500 per annum, which, as you say ;
could be dispensed with, making a saving
0f561,500
believe there are also as many as ten
clerks, whose business it is to calculate
the Square yards, make up the duties
from measurable and weighable goods,
&e.. at a salary of $l,OOO per annum
Making a sum of $71,000
as a portion of the extra experve attending the col
lection of specific duties at one port."
(j.• One or the most certain and. easy modes al
detecting connterfeit silver money, is to draw the
edge of a shap penknife across the surface. If good
it will cut like 'rich old chee.,e,' if counterfeit, the,
edge, of the knife will catch, as if it had come across
some .hard• substance: Any one by making the
trial, will notice the difference. very,plainly.

LOVE OF MONEY IN AMEIIICA.-A Gentle Man
thus k.eplies to the sneer cast upon Americans for
theirireputed love of money:
“When it is said, as it often is, with scorn, that
our conversation, in this country, relates too much
to money matters, that we talk nbout dollars, &c.,
it is but fair to remember that, notwithstanding all
that Some of our own writers have thought pro
per to concede, money is regarded here as, the
means of progress, rather than the end in view.—
It is proper in any part of the World; and where
difference of rank is abolished, and the highest
placc i s are open to the .compet4ion of every one,
it is great power, since it enables'a man to Taise
those who depend on him to the enjoyments and
advantages of which he may have felt the 'want.
Probabfy there is'no part of the world where the
character of the miser is more uncommon than
here; and I have often thought, in noticing the
waysi of foreigners who come here, that if we
talk more about dollars than they do, they think
more of them than we do by far.”

To Tnlercans.l.—lti remodeling this work it has
been attempted, first, to introduce among-others as
many primitioe words es the space Would
and then; in shbsequent lessons, to illustrate by
examples and,rnles the formation of the more tra=
porfant derivatives. TO the latter subject about
thirty lessons are exclusively devoted, and on this
point this book is belieVed to be more eOrdeile and
i , „ •
particular than any, n , common use. As these
rules and illuStrations 'are so full, many words of
this class have been deemed unnecessary. On the
last page the rules for. derivatives have been gen
eralized and extended,So as to include all the more
important Classe's of words.
le veiling and peonoinleing, the authority of Dr. ]
Webster hes been chiefly followed, al though i some
Cases, as in the third sounds 'of e, o and .1 ,- and in
a few individual word 'that of Worcesterhas been
considered mote in accordance with common usage.
The last edition, of Webster's large work, publish
ed in 1841 with his avi)rt Corrections, arid .which he
gave to the !While as the last reccord of his opin
ion, the octavo abridgment of that work, con ,
taining in some instances Worcester's modification'l
and the University edition of 1845, published byl
Dr. Websters executOrs, have been in the stan
d:m.l' of referece in priMaritig thil work. In all
these, many peculiarities of spelling and pronunci
ation, found -in this author's “Dictionary for Pri
m'ary Shoots," and there suggested as improve
ments, rather than recorded as usage, have been
withdrawn, as having failed to receive the appro
bation of the public. ; In some instances aEcord
ing to the plan' adopted in the worka above refer
ed to, lice metheds of tipelling or of pronouncing a
Word have been giveni being considered of nearly
equal authority. Where common usage is dividtd
upon any particular Word. every teacher should
have the privilege of 'choice, and if so disposed, of,
selecting that which most simple., in itself, or
most in accordance with ;trilogy, and in that way

The dessificcdion according to the pro- 1
