TILL SWEET SPRING IS COMING.
The sweet Spring is coming,with fragrance around her
And music is heard on the wings of the wind;
The fetters are broken which yesterday bound her,
And all her young glories in joy unconfined;
The wild birds are 'aging,
The sweet flowers are springing,
0 any can you hear the far waterfall humming,
As it comes on the south wind,so mellow and sweet?
And say can you sec the fair wild pigeon coining,
So swift from the warm clime with light wing and
Beet? .

Their beauty enhancing as they dash into foam;
Each bud's gemmed with dew-drops, the sight

THERE is a vast amount 'of suffering in
the world that escapes general observation.
In the lanes and alleys of our populous cit

buildings, there are frequent cases of nose

who live in comfortable houses, and pursue
the ordinary duties of life, have neither
knowledge nor conception. By mere chance,
occasionally, a solitary instance of deprnvi 7

enjoy. Errors of education are the fruit
ful source of misery; and to guard against
these is a task which requires judgment,and
unremitting diligence. But for this labor,
does not the mother receive a rich reward?
Who may tell the gladness of her heart,
when the infant cherub first articulates her
name? _ Who can describe the delightful
emotions elicited by the early developement
of her genius,—the expansion of the intel
lect when it first receives, and treasures with
eagerness, the seeds of knowledge? These
are joys known only to mothers, and they
are joys which fill the soul w:th rapture.
Letitia was eight years old, when a per
son of genteel address and f•ishionable ap-
pearance, named Duval, was introduced to
her mother by her father, with whom he
had been intimate when a youth,and between
whom a strong
friendship had existed from
that period. Duval had recently returned
from Europe, where he had resided a num
ber of years. He was charmed with the
farn:ly, and soon became a constant visitor:
Having the entire confidence of his old
friend and companion, all formality in refer
ence to intercourse was hid aside, and he
was heartily welcomed at all hours, and un
der all circumstances. He formed one in
all parties of pleasure, and in the absence
of his friend, accompanied his lady on her
visits ofamusement and pleasure,—a privil
ege which he sedulously improved whenev
er opportunity offered.
Duval, notwithstanding his personal at
tractions and high character as a '•gentle
r man," belonged to a class of men which has
existed more or less in all ages, to disgrace
humanity. He professed to be a philoso
pher, but was in reality a libertine. He
lived for his own gratification. It monopo
lized all his thoughts, and directed all his
actions. He belonged to the school of Vol
taire, and recognized no feelings of the
heart as pure, no tie of duty or affection as
sacred. No considerations of suffering, of
heart-rending grief, on the part of his vic
tim, were sufficient to intimidate his pur
pose, or' check his career of infamy.—
Schooled in hypocrisy, dissimulation was
his business: and he regarded the whole
world as the sphere of his operations,—the
whole human family as legitiniate subjects
for his villainous depravity.
That such characters,—so base, so de
spicable, so lost to all feelings of true honor,
—can force their way into respectable so
ciety, and poison the minds of the unsullied
and virtuous, may well be a matter of as
tonishment to those unacquainted With the
desperate artfulness of human hearts. But
ihPan rrtnrartorc_app<ar rtnt ;n their true char
acter: they assume the garb anddeportment
of gentlemen, of philosophers, of men of edu
cation & refinement,& by their accomplish
ments, the suavity of their manners, their
sprightliness of conversation,bewdder before
they.poison,& fascinate before they destroy.
If there be, in the long catalogue ofguile,
one character more hatefully despicable than
another, it is the libertine. Time corrects
the tongue of slander, and the generosity of
friends makes atonement for the depreda
tio'ns of the midnight robber. Suffering
and calamities may be assuaged or mitiga
ted by the sympathies of kindred hearts;and
the tear of affection is sufficient to wash out
the remembrance of many of the sorrows to
which flesh is heir. But for the venom of
the libertine, thereis no remedy,--of its fa
tal consequences, there is no mitigation.—
His victims, blasted in reputation, aro for
ever excluded from the pale of virtuous so
ciety, 'No Sacrifice can atone for their de
gradation, for the unrelenting and mexora- '
ble finger of scorn obstructs their progress
at every step. The visitation of Death, ap
palling as is his approach to the unprepared,
were a mercy, compared with the extent
and permanency of this evil.
Duval's insidious arts were not unobserv
ed by his intended victim. She noticed the
gradual development of his pernicious prin.
ciples, and shrunk with horror from their
contaminating influence. She did not hesi
tate to communicate her observations to her
husband—but he, blinded by prejudice in
favor of his friend, laughed at her scruples.
Without a word of caution, therefore, his
intercourse was continued—and such was
the weight of his ascendant power—such the
perfection of his deep laid scheme, and such
his facility in glossing over what he termed
pardonable, but which in reality,were gross.
ly licentious, indiscretions of language and
conduct—that even the lady herself was in.
duced, in time, to believe that she had treat
ed him unjustly. The gradual progress of
licentiousnes is almost imperceptible, and
before she was aware of her error, she had
drank deeply of the intoxicating draught,
and had well nigh become a convert to Du
val's system of philosophy. Few who ap
proach this fearful precipice are able to re
trace their steps. The senses are bewilder.
ed—reason loses its sway—and a whirlpool
of maddening emotions take posession of the
heart, and hurries the infatuated victim to
irretrievable death. Before her suspicions
were awakened, the purity of her family cir
cle was destroyed. Duval enrolled on his
list of conquests a new name----the wife of
his bosom friend!
An immediate divorce was the conse
quence. The misguided woman; who but
late had been the ornament of society and
the pride of her family, was cast out upon
the world, unprotected, and without the
smallest resource. The heart of the husband
was broken by the calamity which rendered
this step necessary, and he retired, with his
Children, to the obscurity of humble life.
At a late hour on one of those bitter cold
levenings experienced in the early part of
January, of the present year, two females, a
mother and daughter, both wretchedly clad,
stood shivering at the entrance of a dellar,in
the lower part of the city, occupied bytwo
persons of .color. Tho daughter appeared
to be laboring under severe indisposition,
and leaned for support on the arm of her
mother, who knocking at the door, craved
shelter and warmth for the night. The
door was half opened in answer to the sum
mons, but the black who appeared on the
stairs, declared that it was out of his power
to contply with the request, as he had nei.
ther fire, except that which was furnished
by a handful of tan, nor covering for himself
and wife. The mother, however, too much
inured to suffering to be easily rebuked, de
clared that herself and daughter were likely
to perish from cold, and that even permis
sion to: rest on the floor of the cellar,where
they would be protected, in some degree,
from the "nipping and eager air,' would be
a charity for which they would ever be grate
ful. She alleged, as an excuse for the claim
to shelter, that she had been ejected, a few
minutes befiire, from a small room which,
with her daughter, she had occupied in a
neighboring alloy, and for which she bad
stipulated to pay fifty cents per week, be
cause she had found herself unable to meet
the demand—every resource for obtaining
,money having been cut off by the, severity
of the season. The' black, more generous
than many Who are more ambitious of a re
putation for berievolence, admitted the shiv
ering applicants, and at once resigned, for
their accommodation for the night, the only
two seats in the cellar, and cast a fresh hand
ful of tan upon the ashes in the fire place.
It was a scene of wretchedness, want and
misery, calculated to soften the hardest
heart, and to enlist the feelings and sympa
thies of the most selfish. The regular ten
ants of the cellar werelhe colored man and
his wile, who gained n scanty and precarious
subsistence, as they were able, by casual
employment in the streets, or in neighboring
houses. Having in summer made no pro
vision.for the inclemencies of winter, they
were then utterly destitute. They had sold
their, articles of clothing and furniture, one
by one, to provide themselves with bread,
until- al• were disposed of, but two broken
chairs, a box that served for a table, and a
small piece of carpeting, which answered
the double purpose of a bed and covering.
Into this department of poverty were the
mother and daughter—lately ejected from
a place equally destitute of the comforts of
life—introduced. The former was a woman
of Crty years, hut the deep furrows on
her face, and ber debilitated frame, betoken
ed a more advanced age. Her face was
wan and pale, and her haggard countenance
and tattered dress, indicated a full measure
of wretchedness. Her daughter sat beside
her, and rested her head on her mother's lap.
Sho was about twenty-five y ears of age, and
might once have been handsome—but a life
of debauchery had thus early robbed her
cheeks of their roses, and prostrated her
constitution. The pallidness of disease was
on her face—anguish was in her heart.
Hours passed on. In the gloom of mid
night, the girl awolte.from a disturbed and
unrefreshing slumber. She was suffering
from acute pair); - and in the almost total
darkness. which pervaded the apartment,
raised her hand to her mother's face. "Mo
ther," said she, in faltering accents, "are
you here?"
"Yes, child: are you better?"
"No, mothor,—l am sick,—sick unto death!
There is a canker, at my heart—my blood
grows cold—the torpor of mortality is steal
ing upon me?"
"In the morning, my dear, we shall be
better provided tor. Bless Heaven, there is
still one place which thanks to the benevo
lent, will afford us sustenance and shelter."
"Do not thank Heaven, mother; you and
I are outcasts from that place of peace and
rest. We have spurned Providence from
our hearts, and need not now call him to our
aid. Wretches, wretches that we are I"
"Re composod,daughter—you need rest."
"Mother, there is a weight of woe upon
my breast, that sinks me to the earth. My
brief career of folly is almost at an end. I
have erred—oh God! fatally erred—and the
consciousness of my wickedness now over
whelms me. I will not reproach you, mo
ther, for laying the snare by which 1 fell—
for enticing me from the house of virtue—
the home of my heart-broken father—to the
house of infamy and death; but oh, I implore
you, repent: be warned, and let penitence be
the business of your days."
The hardened heart of the mother melted
at this touching appeal, and she answered
with a half-stifled sigh.
"Promise me then, ere I die, that you will
abandon your ways of iniquity, and endeavor
to make peace with Heaven."

"God is merciful to all who
The last word was inaudible. A few re

the penitent girl sunk into the quiet slumber
of death. Still -did the mother remain in
her seat, with a heart harrowed by the emit

A VERY . PRETTY SPECULATION.--The
Cattakill Recorder tells the story of a negro
speculation,much beyond any. thing we have
heard or read of in the annals of Yankeeism.
A fine . intelligent looking negro Who had'
been employed during the sumtn_er in a canal
boat, not liking to be idle,- set his wits. at
work to contrive some ,Way of turning an
honest penny during the winter, and at last
hit upon the following expedient. Taking a
stage d riverof his acquaintance they journi
ed lovingly to Richmond, Va., was sold as
a slave by his friend, the stage driver, for
eight hundred dollars. The stage driver, im
mediately decamped, and the negro took
measures forthwith to psove, and obtain his
freedom. In this, by aid of friends, and pa-
pers in his possession,,he soon succeeded—
was liberated and returned home; where,
much to his satisfaction, he found that the
partner, agreeably to promise, had deposited
four hundred dollars, the half of his purchase
Money, to his credit in the Savings Bank.
HASTY LEGISLATION.—Ina debate the
other day in the Maine Legislature some
thing was said upon the importance of ex
pedition in legislation,to which John Holmes
made the following reply.
He was not sure but the old maxim applied
to legislation as well as to many other things;
"the more haste the worse speed." I re
member (said he) some examples of hurry
and precipitancy. Last year a law was
passed which provided that all Acts should
take effect a certain number of. days after
they were published in the State paper.—
This made the laws all depend upon the
Eastern Argus—the .eastern Argus the
Law of the Land! I don't know how some
gentlemen may like that, probably - very
well; •but it don't exactly suit me. I will
mention another instance.. The town .of
Boston was once much afflicted by fires,and
it was thought by many that they were set
by the blacks. Accordingly the Assembly
of the Province of Massachusetts passed a
law forbidding any blacks to be seen out of
doors after dark, "without a lantern." Up
on this Cuffee issues out equipped 'with his
lantern but no candle in itl At the next Bps
sion, it was enacted that there should always
be a candle in the.lantern. Well, Sir, Cuff
puts in his.candle according to law, but "he
no light 'ent." Thus they , were obliged , to
enact laws three successive sessions before
they could make
