"No, my boy ' a:i\d a ^ilvcr-hiiired old man; 'I remember your mother whin she was a 'bonnie htssie. 1 Her cheeks were like two red up; less, on which the crimson w;is duirr.ily spread so us not to shame the white. Her eve wus lull iind bright, not dim with sorrow as it is now. Some great grief must have changed her so sadly. HIT rvunded limbs and daijity loot, her beautiful throat and white, dimpled arms, I well remember. And she has been u kind mother; her counsels, like "morning dews and evepjng si owers,' hiivr f lien upon your way!—wad vet, Med, you call her the "old wn'iian '— Ah, hoy, it. never was so in my time."

I ordered fur mother?" a*ked Ned Elli.- of his pretty young bride, as thry sat together in their neat cottage home. "1 di-dare, Ned, I forget it." his wife replied, blushing; "I was ?o busy finishing my diess ior the ball, that it quite slipped my memory." '•Mother wanted them last week— ugar and salt, teaand coflee, ami about everything else she was out of; what a stupid dog I am to forget so; :iere, Sam—Ned Jack, where are you? what, not one of them at home?" "They have gone to the husking frolic, I believe," said Mrs Ellis/ ''I in'ended to send those articles before they went, but I have such a short memory," "Ditto to that," chimed in Ned "but I must go round and see the old lady. I haven't even called to know whether she is well or sick." "Well, thank Umi! the same as b>'- tore," answt-red the old 1; i < I v, her serene face lighting up with a beautiful •mil'.

Alout tit bread stood on thu small table by her >-ide.

The good old lady leaned back and crossed her hands upou her bosom. Her thought* had that go.den head nestled against her heart! How hud those ever-laughing eyes drawn smiles from her own, even whiie in lonely widowhood. How had she watctied him as he prattling toddled about her knee—the treasure of her life—the blood ot her very heart—the apple of her eye. And alter years had passed she remembered theofun sell denials, the patched garment, the old ehawl, colored and reooLred; the faded bon- net; nil beautiful as jewels to her, bu cause ln-;y purchased the greai gift of education lor her boy. And after all this he had neglected his old mothei 1 . On, shuine! ungrateful manhood ihat can so repay love teuder as tbe love ol an angel. Look upon another scene. A bright, noble face, was ihat ol young Arthur McLanu. His eyes were vividly dark; his hair lulled back in glossy curls iron) a manly brow. 'Ihe seal of earnest hie enslauiped that fresh young countenance; the soft light oj love enkindled it as he spoke iu s..ft, low tones to the gentle being by his side. ' Mother will not live with us," he said, ''she has too lung reigned over her own household to ait quietly by the side of another." "I am sorry, Arthur," replied a , sweet voije; "the picture I have framed iu my heart will be incomplete without mother, liar meek face, her snowy' cap, her busy finger*, her low voice and quiet iuflueu' i e would make our little home a paradise. Will she not bo vury lonely?" "I have taken oare to engage a cot- t;ge close to hers," answered Arthur, 'within u stones-throw. Aud vou know you can never get along without showing her your bright eyes at least a dozen times a day, to consult ou little household matters—6uch as what dainty dish will best please the taste of your lord and master—Ahem." Alice shook her finger at this piece of impudence, and locked as feaihiliv threatening as her pretty laco would allow. "And how do you get on noiv that Arthur has gone and ia married?'' I teudora. g breakfast party among them, several years ago, will be read with iutejreat:— "Ou one occasion, when I visited Bi- soor with a p.irty, among whom were two or three English ladies, tbe latter were iuvi'.ed into the harem, or women's apart- ment, to visit the sheik's wife and some of his feiualu relatives there assembled.— Being by tliis time on terms of intimacy with thechief and his family, I w.ts ask- ed to join the ladies' party in tin; harem —a mark oTfrioiidship rarely shown to oue of our sex who is not a relative \1- though the Drusu ladies were ;.ll veiled, ] we could, from time to time, see enottgb of tneir f:ices to distinguish their feature* aud even among the younger portiou nf the party there was not oue tolerably good-looking. They appeared, in fact, of quite another race than their husbands brothers fathers, and sons. iSome of them wore numerous valuable jewels; but the sheik's wife, although clean and no .t, was clothed ill garuiuutej of the most or- dinary texture, and wore noornament ot' any kind. Coffee, sweet-meats and fruits were handed round, and we remained about half an hour iu the apartment, un- til summoned to the breakfast or mid-day meal, which had been prepared in Qua of the outer rooms, and to wuioli both la- dies and gontleiue.ii of our party sat down, but at which the Druse ladies did not make their appearance. ' The meat was cooked, served, arid eaten altogether alter the fashion of the country. Fust, a sort of t. ipod. some- thing like an inverted uiusic-stooj, was brought aud put dowu in the middle of the room. Upon this was piaced a very largo, cupper, circular tray, nearly four feet in circumference. On this tray the various dishes -vere set, while the whole party squatted round it on the liocr. [t -as curious to observe the contrast form- ed between fresh-looking English ladies, laughing, merry English children, shoot- ing-jacket clad i nglish gentlemen, aud grave, long-bearded, white-tiirbaued Druse sheiks. A long napkin, which went over the kuees of us all aud which the chil- dren compared to getting under the sheets —was spread; a score or so of unleavened breudcaKes were placed at thehands of the guests; and then, taking up his spoon with a 'Bismillah,' (in the name of (iod,) our host gave the sugu to begin. Iu the centre was a large piilall, made of rice boiled in butter, seasoned with piue-nuts, and mixed with unuee-uieat. This was j the piece de resistance, of which everybody eat, and cat it with all things, liouud this dish—or mountain, of rice— were placed plates of various meat and vegeta- ble stews, all very good, very tasly and inviting. Our tuauuer of proceeding was iu tii.s wise: each individual would dip his spoon into the rice—keeping careful y to Ins own corner of the vast heap—and on its way back to his mouth, moi-ten it with the gravy of the dish before him, of which 111 WO was one or more for each Thus the most urgent hunger was satis- fied, and we soon oegau merely to tritle with the national dish of kibbts, <i.,d other matters equally solid. Some of the party had never before been present at a regu- lar Arab entertainment; for in the towns of Syria the fashion among all the more respectable natives, is to ape the European mode of sttting tne table and serving the dinner. To the children of our party the whole afl'air was a high holiday of amusement, t'heir laughter and mistakes amusing the sheiks not a little During the entire repast nothing stronger than water was druuk, for in Druse houses a single glass of wine or spirits would be thought defiling to the owner. "When the dinner was over, each per- son washed his or her hands, one atten- dant pouring water from ajug, while the other held a large copper basin with a false bottom, so that the dirty water fell through and was not seeu, much after thu old-fashioned clulu-.nclwc, in which we used to wash of yore—it may be so yet—on the 'Bengal side' of India. Those among us who wore beards were careful to wash them very clean, both with soap and wa- ter. Hose-water was then brought in, and sprinkled over every one; after which the usual black unstrained ooilee was sei ved, aud each man—excepting, of course, the Akkals, who never smoke— was left to his pipe, his thoughts, and the conversation ot uis neighbors—the tatties of the party returning for the present to the women's apartment" CAUGHT IN HIS OWN TKAP—As a number of tradesmen were returning from Manchester in a railway carr age, one of them began to tell of the grea: weekly profits he was realizing bv his thread manufactory, when a sharn-eycd little gentleman it! a corner of the car- riage exclaimed, "Indeed! and pray, sir, what may your name be?"—"I am Mr, H ," replied the boaster.— "Ah!" said his interrogator, "I must make a memorandum of that" - (at the same time taking out his pocket book) —'-for I do not remember having your name in my books for the income tax" —"Oh," replied Mr. H , -'my works are in Manchester,"—''That may be," rejoined the ether, "but I believe I now recognize yon as a very near neighbor. I hope for a better acquaintance with you, sir." The reason why so mnny riages among tkerieh end-unhappily, i to be found in tho fact that they do not ! 60 much demand that heart should bent to heart aa that purse should ciiiuk to j purse.

Cultivation oi tae Cheslnut [A correspondent of the farmer and Qarinner of Pennsylvania, gives the following directions for tiio growth of the chestnut ;] Select the largest and best ripened chesiuu; you can find, prepare a bed or plantation by plowing deep and pulver- ising thoroughly Draw drills twelve inches apart and three inches deep, pluht youroheatuu s-two-incbea apart in the drill, with the poinis uj wards, cov er them and press UIHsoil cjoeely around them with the bacK of the rake, This should be done in November, •h High if the fall is unfavorable, ihe planting had better be deferred until enHy March. Be calelul to have your grot) d well drained, that tha nut may not rut. Co.er the bcd< with long ma- nure, or spent tan bark-, if well rotted, this will protect them train the frost. When the young plants begin to ;>p pear, keep them clear of weed-s. Hoe frequently, it will help their grouth very much. If the weather is very dry in the summer, a little watering onco or twice a week will prove advantageous If the reason has been favorable and thev huv.- been well maunged, they will be ready for transplanting the fail fol- li lowing. Trim off all the side shoots before transplanting, leaving only one straight stem. Plant in rows eighteen inches apart, and eight inches in the row.— Let them remain two years in this bed, at life end of which tuny they will bo fit for transplanting They are then to beset out where ttiey are to remain un- til fit for use. After they have become boroughly routed, then head thdin down lo two eyes ab,/Ve the ground, the cut sloping lo the north, o that the shoot which is thrown oat may protect the stems during thefii'ot sessions. On vigorous stems, those roots will reach seven or eight feet in one sea*>U. Head- lug down is all important if you would have fine straight trees. i'ou will put got thtjin if you neglect this, but re- member not to head them down until they are well rooted. 1 am led to believe that the chestnut coukl he j rotiuib!\ grown for jjolcs for Lima Byaus, *5oy A BEAUTIFUL ILJKA-Away among tho AJIeghanies, there is a spring so .-mall ' d iu a summer's day, It steals its obtru- that a t-iuglo us could dram it dry. sive way among the hills, till it spreads, out in the beautiful Ohio.

Pecunia- ry or personal considerations ought to weigh nothing when tvraniiy is in the scale; but aro we justified in sacrificing in common with the patriots of these j thesu when we have yet the con-<Utu- tunes, will ask some more weighty rea^ son for overthrowing the government than rash endiusiusts yet have given ; and that while other.sare carried away by the impulsa of the moment, tho nr.en oi oxpoii.jnco will be calm nnd decided. I had hoped that an opportunity would have een aflorded me *.o rejoice in the triuinph*of some one of the con- servative candidates for the Presidency. Had the candidate for whom the voice of Texas was dei lured burin elected, I should have had an additional cause of gratification ; but such is not the case. On the'contrary, I mast regret and de- plore tho election of men, whose only clai.n to the confidence and support of ihe vvholo c-untry must be the official character vviili wbion the consitution inVHSis them. In rtinomboring tho many evidences '.vhich a portion of thu northern people hrivu presented of their willingness to disregard their coiiat tuiional obliga- tion and infr'ni-id up in the ri«his of their southern bre hron, 1 am not in ihe least surprised at tho indignant re- sponses nowuttered by southern men. It Know* that it the time should come when we can P.O lunger trust to tha eonstifniroti for our rigtiia, the people will not hesitate to maintain them. It will be well if those States which have yielded to a fanatic;,I sentiment,so far as lo interpose between the Federul au- thority and the constitutional rights (if a wii le section of tho Union, will now, inspired by a spirit oi' patriotism and nationality, rutracd their steps. Upon a citizen of tfeeir own uedtiottj nnd one of their own pai ty, they have now placed a responsibility which he cannot avoid. As (be Chief Exe> utive of the nation he will l;e sworn to support the ci'iistituiion and cx«-u!e the laws. His o::th w.li bring him in conflict with the unconstitutional statutes enacted by his pa 1 ty iu many of the Stales. Elected by that party.it is but natural that the conservatism of tho nation will watch his course " with jealous care, aud de- mand at his hands a rigid enforcement of the Federal laws, bhould he meet ihe same resistance which other Exec utives have met, i* will bo his duty to call to his aid the conservative musses; of the country, aud they will respond to tha call. Should hefalter or fall, and,. t>y allowing the law to be subverted, aid in oppressing the people of the South, ho must be hurled from power. Froin the moment of his inauguration there will commence an "irrepressible conflict," ditierent from that which the party of Mr Lincoln is based upon— it wiil be an "irrepressible conflict' bu- uveen the constitution., which he has sworn to support, andthe unconstitu tional enactments and aims of ihe party which has placed himin power He has declared the fugitive slave law con- stitutional. In hs enloiceinent the coi.fiict is vy.th the North alone. 1 need not as jure vou th ft whenever the time shall come when we mu t choose between tho loss of ourc'onstitu tional rights and revolution, 1 chal choose tho latter; and if I, who have led the people of Texas in s oriuy times ot danger, hesitate to punge into revo- lution i.ow, it is not because I am ready to submit to black republican rule, but because I regard the couatitulion ot my country, and am detei mined to stand by it. Mr. Lincoln has been constitu- tionally elected, and, much as I depre- cate his success,no alternative is left mo but to yield to .ha constitution. The moment that instrument, is violated by him I will be fcremost in demanding redress, and ihe last to abandon my ground. When I contemplate tho horrors of civil war, such at> the dissolution of the Union will ultimately force upon us, I cannot believe that the people will rash- lv take a step fraught with these conse- quences. They will consider well the blessings of the government we have, and it will only be when tho grievances wo suffer are of a naturo that as free- men we canno longer bear them, that they will raisj tne standitid ol revolu- tion. Then tho civilized world, out- own consciences and posterity will justi fy us. If that time should come, then wiL be the day and the hour, if it has not—if our rights are yet secure —we cannot bejustuied. Has the ti<no come '! If it has, the people who have to boar tho burthens f revolution, must themselves elioct the work. Those who reside in cities and town-;, where masses are carried in crowds and jiitluene. d by passionate appeals may be ready for hasty action ; but thu working-men and farmers, whose ill is idennfied with tho prosperity and peuce of the country, will ask time to reflect As ali wiil be alike involved in tbe horrors which will coma after d:ssolu tion, all have tho right to consider wneiher dissolution shall como. The liberties and security of all are at stake. It is not a Question for politicians to tamper with—Ihe masses must seitle it for themselves. They aro to cousider whether, With Congress aii'i the Su- preme Court largely infavor of tiie con- stitution, they will be justified, because Uio President, who is constitutionally elected, is inimical to them. It must come to this. With a A these checks and the land, shall lift up his hands to heav- guarantees in our favor, it is urged that en, and swear that timp shall ben more So with moral influence, it is a rill, a riyulet, an ocoin—a boundless and fathomless isca,—Iilvmhian Seneca says that love ia a disease. It seems, sometimes, to be a combination of diso:'.ses—an uffeotion of the heart and an inflammation of the brain. we should no longer wait, but at one<) let go tho constitution. Passiofl is rush vvisdom considers well her ways.— When tho bone aud sinew ol the coun- t:\, nftor c.uii.lly considering tho issuo in all its bearings, shall teel. that a yoke of oppression is upon them, they :se to shake it off. Then, when their nowpeaceful hdmes aro the eoecs tion to protect us and our rights are se cure ? Let us no; eintiruce tho higher law principle of pur enemies, and Over- throw tha c lUStitutit.-n, but when we have to resist, let it be in thu trims of the constitution a::U to uph.>«d it. Why this military display nnd call to orms in Texas? Have we quemies at home, or is an army inarching upon us? When was there the time when th«j citizens of the country were not ready to fl;)ck to its standard in its defence? Are the people to deliberate on thin quesli m with a tn litary despoti-m in their midst, ready :o cocrcu them? We want sober thought aud calm rea- son, notfuri'. us harangtlos or the argu- ment of bayonets. If this govermn itit is to fail, wisdom must furnish another and better one; and if patriats yield now to the ra-h and reckless, who only aspire to milita- ry' g! ry, (jf for aunrchy and rapine, they mayfindthat in the wreck of oue free government, they have lost the power to rear another. I trust the gloom that now hangs over the laud will soon be dispelled. iNow id the time for the patriot to co.ne forth aud consider change. of the line, but not c n exist South North of it. Secondly. Tlint the States preventing the return of fugitive slaves shall pay double the value of said fugitives. Thirdly. I'hat slavery shall exist ii; tlie Navy Yard-: where it now exists, but hot in others. Fourthly. That Congress cliall never interfere with slavery in tha District of Columbia so long as it remains in the limits of Maryland. Fifthly. That Congress shaH not touch the representation of thrae-tifths of the slaves SiX''!dt/. That tha amended provisions shall ba considered a part of the Consti- tution of 'he United States. A message was hero received from the House that it concurred in tho act to amend the fourth sectior. of the «Jt for the admission of Oregon. Mr. Iverson culled up the bill relative to our Commission to Mexico. An amendment was offered to affthorizo a So- licitor. Mr Hamlin opposed it, avid said a Secretary wa» a}re,ady allowed to the Commission. Mr. Halo's proposed amendment to tlie Mexican Coinmissio.. Bill, provides that tLo act shall not taka efl'oet till the public debt of the U.iited states shall be puid. A message was read from the House. It concurs in thefirst Sa..a:e amendment to thu loan bill, but had made an amend- ment to the second amendment, Mr. Hunter said he would like to take it up. Agreed to. whiau huve aken root i.i tho public uii.ii.!.

They sii! offer us the guarantees of tho coiwtitution, i.nd are ready to battio with ua in its de- fi-uoe. Let trio men, till over Texas and the South, see t.> it that we leave them not without a cause. 1 cannot believe that we osmfind r.t present more safety out of tho Unio.i than in it. Yet I believe it duo tho people tl.at they should know they stand. Mr. Lincoln has elected up<-:i a HWOtlousl where bee If he expects to maintain that sectional issue during his administration, it is well we should know it If he intends to ad- rpiniateJ the government with equality and fairness, ive fchouid know that. Let us wait and see. 1 have lylt upon record my position, should the I-lights of Texas tia sucri ficed by thy Federal Government. In reply to Mr. Sevvard, in the Ltnate, I used these words; and I pray my friends to consider them calmly, as they were uttered : '•Whenever one section of this coun- try presumes upon its strength for thu oppression of tne other, then will our constitution bb a mockery, and it would matter not howsoon it mis severed into a thousand atoms and cattered to the four winds. If the principles are dis-' regarded upon which the annexation of Tex.-4-i was consuinmaeil, there wi'l lie for her neiti.er honor nor i .terest iu the minds of coimnuuities: but such is not the duty of tiieu iu public position, whether of an official or o.Ler character, anu ns v,e uavo laore than once L< j en com- pelled, by the steru dictatus of duty, to stji.i tae tide of error, so now it shall not be aaid that we shrink i'roin tha responsi- bility inthehour of our country's. ^r^l& and dangers.

Tliey. forget, tirjt, that th«y have no bubli'e>a wiih these ques- tions, and that Southern men iuivu a light to coinphiiu of their meddlesome in- v-; aud, secondly, that conceding Mr. Hunter said he would liko tohave ! ^eir preinue* tuat blav,-ry UWronj, it is the same provisions appry to the §10,000,- I U ta fc * J ea . rs slnce U;c 7 Wure 00) as to the 83,00>',OOO.

Mr. Haskiu presented letters showing that Mr. Ford, the H use printer, was absent, and that the sub-ooutractjrs, Messrs.

The widow sat over tho scanty fire,watching the hissing-water, as itspouted nnd fell from the little tin teakettle. A lout tit bread stood on thusmall table by her >-ide. Her orwtrncrwas empty; tlie bowl, minus Mig:tr, no.-ntrar, I'" butler, no little luxury,nothing1 but the crust, the wee whiteIrmf, and the scrap of tea that dustedthe bottom of the [indent silver ton-pot, _ ,

The widow bent closer over the fireand there were team in her aged eyu~.

" l ie should have thought of hi* o dmother," utie murmiired, tidgettingwith nervous hands nbo .t lier cap rib-bon; bur them, being just married so, 1suppor-e I ought to • on^ider; lie alwayswas it little wild—a little wild; but h«has pot a g:>o<i heart, I know he ha:-;still, he shouldn't liave forgot his poorold ini'ther."

The good old lady leaned back andcrossed her hands upou her bosom.Her thought* had that go.den headnestled against her heart! How hudthose ever-laughing eyes drawn smilesfrom her own, even whiie in lonelywidowhood. How had she watctiedhim as he prattling toddled about herknee—the treasure of her life—theblood ot her very heart—the apple ofher eye. And alter years had passedshe remembered the ofun sell denials,the patched garment, the old ehawl,colored and reooLred; the faded bon-net; nil beautiful as jewels to her, bucause ln-;y purchased the greai gift ofeducation lor her boy. And after allthis he had neglected his old mothei1.On, shuine! ungrateful manhood ihatcan so repay love teuder as tbe loveol an angel.

Look upon another scene.A bright, noble face, was ihat ol

young Arthur McLanu. His eyes werevividly dark; his hair lulled back inglossy curls iron) a manly brow. 'Iheseal of earnest hie enslauiped that freshyoung countenance; the soft light ojlove enkindled it as he spoke iu s..ft,low tones to the gentle being by hisside.

' Mother will not live with us," hesaid, ''she has too lung reigned overher own household to ait quietly by theside of another."

"I am sorry, Arthur," replied a ,sweet voije; "the picture I have framediu my heart will be incomplete withoutmother, liar meek face, her snowy'cap, her busy finger*, her low voice andquiet iuflueu'ie would make our littlehome a paradise. Will she not bo vurylonely?"

"I have taken oare to engage a cot-t;ge close to hers," answered Arthur,'within u stones-throw. Aud vouknow you can never get along withoutshowing her your bright eyes at least adozen times a day, to consult ou littlehousehold matters—6uch as whatdainty dish will best please the taste ofyour lord and master—Ahem."

Alice shook her finger at this pieceof impudence, and locked as feaihilivthreatening as her pretty laco wouldallow.

"And how do you get on noiv that •Arthur has gone and ia married?'' I

teudora. gbreakfast party among them, severalyears ago, will be read with iutejreat:—

"Ou one occasion, when I visited Bi-soor with a p.irty, among whom were twoor three English ladies, tbe latter wereiuvi'.ed into the harem, or women's apart-ment, to visit the sheik's wife and someof his feiualu relatives there assembled.—Being by tliis time on terms of intimacywith the chief and his family, I w.ts ask-ed to join the ladies' party in tin; harem—a mark oTfrioiidship rarely shown tooue of our sex who is not a relative \1-though the Drusu ladies were ;.ll veiled,

] we could, from time to time, see enottgbof tneir f:ices to distinguish their feature*aud even among the younger portiou nfthe party there was not oue tolerablygood-looking. They appeared, in fact, ofquite another race than their husbandsbrothers fathers, and sons. iSome ofthem wore numerous valuable jewels; butthe sheik's wife, although clean and no .t,was clothed ill garuiuutej of the most or-dinary texture, and wore no ornament ot'any kind. Coffee, sweet-meats and fruitswere handed round, and we remainedabout half an hour iu the apartment, un-til summoned to the breakfast or mid-daymeal, which had been prepared in Qua ofthe outer rooms, and to wuioli both la-dies and gontleiue.ii of our party sat down,but at which the Druse ladies did notmake their appearance.

' The meat was cooked, served, arideaten altogether alter the fashion of thecountry. Fust, a sort of t. ipod. some-thing like an inverted uiusic-stooj, wasbrought aud put dowu in the middle ofthe room. Upon this was piaced a verylargo, cupper, circular tray, nearly fourfeet in circumference. On this tray thevarious dishes -vere set, while the wholeparty squatted round it on the liocr. [t-as curious to observe the contrast form-

ed between fresh-looking English ladies,laughing, merry English children, shoot-ing-jacket clad i nglish gentlemen, audgrave, long-bearded, white-tiirbaued Drusesheiks. A long napkin, which went overthe kuees of us all — aud which the chil-dren compared to getting under the sheets—was spread; a score or so of unleavenedbreudcaKes were placed at the hands ofthe guests; and then, taking up his spoonwith a 'Bismillah,' (in the name of (iod,)our host gave the sugu to begin. Iu thecentre was a large piilall, made of riceboiled in butter, seasoned with piue-nuts,and mixed with unuee-uieat. This was

j the piece de resistance, of which everybody

eat, and cat it with all things, liouudthis dish—or mountain, of rice— wereplaced plates of various meat and vegeta-ble stews, all very good, very tasly andinviting. Our tuauuer of proceeding wasiu tii.s wise: each individual would diphis spoon into the rice—keeping careful yto Ins own corner of the vast heap—andon its way back to his mouth, moi-ten itwith the gravy of the dish before him, ofwhich 111 WO was one or more for eachThus the most urgent hunger was satis-fied, and we soon oegau merely to tritlewith the national dish of kibbts, <i.,d othermatters equally solid. Some of the partyhad never before been present at a regu-lar Arab entertainment; for in the townsof Syria the fashion among all the morerespectable natives, is to ape the Europeanmode of sttting tne table and serving thedinner. To the children of our partythe whole afl'air was a high holiday ofamusement, t'heir laughter and mistakesamusing the sheiks not a little Duringthe entire repast nothing stronger thanwater was druuk, for in Druse houses asingle glass of wine or spirits would bethought defiling to the owner.

"When the dinner was over, each per-son washed his or her hands, one atten-dant pouring water from ajug, while theother held a large copper basin with afalse bottom, so that the dirty water fellthrough and was not seeu, much after thuold-fashioned clulu-.nclwc, in which we usedto wash of yore—it may be so yet—onthe 'Bengal side' of India. Those amongus who wore beards were careful to washthem very clean, both with soap and wa-ter. Hose-water was then brought in,and sprinkled over every one; after whichthe usual black unstrained ooilee wassei ved, aud each man—excepting, ofcourse, the Akkals, who never smoke—was left to his pipe, his thoughts, and theconversation ot uis neighbors—the tattiesof the party returning for the present tothe women's apartment"

CAUGHT IN HIS OWN TKAP—As a

number of tradesmen were returningfrom Manchester in a railway carr age,one of them began to tell of the grea:weekly profits he was realizing bv histhread manufactory, when a sharn-eycdlittle gentleman it! a corner of the car-riage exclaimed, "Indeed! and pray,sir, what may your name be?"—"I amMr, H ," replied the boaster.—"Ah!" said his interrogator, "I mustmake a memorandum of that" - (at thesame time taking out his pocket book)—'-for I do not remember having yourname in my books for the income tax"—"Oh," replied Mr. H , -'my worksare in Manchester,"—''That may be,"rejoined the ether, "but I believe I nowrecognize yon as a very near neighbor.I hope for a better acquaintance withyou, sir."

The reason why so mnnyriages among tkerieh end-unhappily, ito be found in tho fact that they do not !60 much demand that heart should bentto heart aa that purse should ciiiuk to jpurse.

Cultivation oi tae Cheslnut[A correspondent of the farmer and

Qarinner of Pennsylvania, gives thefollowing directions for tiio growth ofthe chestnut ;]

Select the largest and best ripenedchesiuu; you can find, prepare a bed orplantation by plowing deep and pulver-ising thoroughly Draw drills twelveinches apart and three inches deep,pluht youroheatuu s-two-incbea apart inthe drill, with the poinis uj wards, cover them and press UIH soil cjoeelyaround them with the bacK of the rake,This should be done in November,•h High if the fall is unfavorable, iheplanting had better be deferred untilenHy March. Be calelul to have yourgrot) d well drained, that tha nut maynot rut. Co.er the bcd< with long ma-nure, or spent tan bark-, if well rotted,this will protect them train the frost.When the young plants begin to ;>ppear, keep them clear of weed-s. Hoefrequently, it will help their grouthvery much. If the weather is very dryin the summer, a little watering onco ortwice a week will prove advantageous

If the reason has been favorable andthev huv.- been well maunged, they willbe ready for transplanting the fail fol-l ilowing.

Trim off all the side shoots beforetransplanting, leaving only one straightstem. Plant in rows eighteen inchesapart, and eight inches in the row.—Let them remain two years in this bed,at life end of which tuny they will bofit for transplanting They are then tobeset out where ttiey are to remain un-til fit for use. After they have becomeboroughly routed, then head thdin

down lo two eyes ab,/Ve the ground,the cut sloping lo the north, o that theshoot which is thrown oat may protectthe stems during thefii'ot sessions. Onvigorous stems, those roots will reachseven or eight feet in one sea*>U. Head-lug down is all important if you wouldhave fine straight trees. i'ou will putgot thtjin if you neglect this, but re-member not to head them down untilthey are well rooted.

The causes of tha present troubles in.our political system, aud of the threat-ened disruption of tho Federal Union,lie deeper and wax stronger upou investi-gation. I t is eas7 to say that tho North.should repeal its '-personal-liberty bills,"and that the South should be satisfiedwith the congressional majority underthe control of Union men, bat whon wecome t« look to the origin of oar section-,fil difficulties, and examine into the oon«duc;t of the people at large, we find thatthe ireul Ciius.' yl alarm is tu bo found IA.

After endurtig civil war for years withere be any promise of a better st:;teof things Ulan we now enjoy ?

in common with the patriots of these j thesu when we have yet the con-<Utu-tunes, will ask some more weighty rea^son for overthrowing the governmentthan rash endiusiusts yet have given ;and that while other.sare carried awayby the impulsa of the moment, tho nr.enoi oxpoii.jnco will be calm nnd decided.

I had hoped that an opportunitywould have een aflorded me *.o rejoicein the triuinph*of some one of the con-servative candidates for the Presidency.Had the candidate for whom the voiceof Texas was dei lured burin elected, Ishould have had an additional cause ofgratification ; but such is not the case.On the'contrary, I mast regret and de-plore tho election of men, whose onlyclai.n to the confidence and support ofihe vvholo c-untry must be the officialcharacter vviili wbion the consitutioninVHSis them.

In rtinomboring tho many evidences'.vhich a portion of thu northern peoplehrivu presented of their willingness todisregard their coiiat tuiional obliga-tion and infr'ni-id up in the ri«his oftheir southern bre hron, 1 am not inihe least surprised at tho indignant re-sponses now uttered by southern men.It Know* that it the time should comewhen we can P.O lunger trust to thaeonstifniroti for our rigtiia, the peoplewill not hesitate to maintain them. Itwill be well if those States which haveyielded to a fanatic;,I sentiment,so far aslo interpose between the Federul au-thority and the constitutional rights (ifa wii le section of tho Union, will now,inspired by a spirit oi' patriotism andnationality, rutracd their steps. Upona citizen of tfeeir own uedtiottj nnd oneof their own pai ty, they have nowplaced a responsibility which he cannotavoid. As (be Chief Exe> utive of thenation he will l;e sworn to support theci'iistituiion and cx«-u!e the laws. Hiso::th w.li bring him in conflict with theunconstitutional statutes enacted by hispa1 ty iu many of the Stales. Electedby that party.it is but natural that theconservatism of tho nation will watchhis course " with jealous care, aud de-mand at his hands a rigid enforcementof the Federal laws, bhould he meetihe same resistance which other Executives have met, i* will bo his duty tocall to his aid the conservative musses;of the country, aud they will respond totha call. Should he falter or fall, and,.t>y allowing the law to be subverted,aid in oppressing the people of theSouth, ho must be hurled from power.Froin the moment of his inaugurationthere will commence an "irrepressibleconflict," ditierent from that which theparty of Mr Lincoln is based upon—it wiil be an "irrepressible conflict' bu-uveen the constitution., which he hassworn to support, and the unconstitutional enactments and aims of ihe partywhich has placed him in power Hehas declared the fugitive slave law con-stitutional. In hs enloiceinent thecoi.fiict is vy.th the North alone.

1 need not as jure vou th ft wheneverthe time shall come when we mu tchoose between tho loss of ourc'onstitutional rights and revolution, 1 chalchoose tho latter; and if I, who haveled the people of Texas in s oriuy timesot danger, hesitate to punge into revo-lution i.ow, it is not because I am readyto submit to black republican rule, butbecause I regard the couatitulion ot mycountry, and am detei mined to standby it. Mr. Lincoln has been constitu-tionally elected, and, much as I depre-cate his success,no alternative is left mobut to yield to .ha constitution. Themoment that instrument, is violated byhim I will be fcremost in demandingredress, and ihe last to abandon myground.

When I contemplate tho horrors ofcivil war, such at> the dissolution of theUnion will ultimately force upon us, Icannot believe that the people will rash-lv take a step fraught with these conse-quences. They will consider well theblessings of the government we have,and it will only be when tho grievanceswo suffer are of a naturo that as free-men we can no longer bear them, thatthey will raisj tne standitid ol revolu-tion. Then tho civilized world, out-own consciences and posterity will justify us. If that time should come, thenwiL be the day and the hour, if ithas not—if our rights are yet secure—we cannot bejustuied.

Has the ti<no come '! If it has, thepeople who have to boar tho burthens• f revolution, must themselves elioctthe work.

Those who reside in cities and town-;,where masses are carried in crowds andjiitluene. d by passionate appeals maybe ready for hasty action ; but thuworking-men and farmers, whose ill isidennfied with tho prosperity and peuceof the country, will ask time to reflect

Resignation oi Gen. Cass-F|> ci-' Di-patvh to'b* X. Y. Times.

"Washington, D«)e. 10.fn my dispatch of Friday, I am

made to !<ay, in speaking of the rumor*as to tho cause of Secretary Outss' re-«igna!ion,"all these rumors are untrue."It should have been, ''two" of them areuntrue. The other—'A\o refusal of thePresident to send troops to Charles-ton—was the cause of the withdrawalof Gen. Cass from tho Cabinet, as hitletter to Mr. Buchanan proves. I un-derstand that the President's reply isin e i:irso of preparation, and that it«iil be very stvero upon the late Pro-aiier.

It appears that Gen. Cass resignedinn days ago, but Mr. Buchanan re-fused to accept tho resignation unlessrtonaon was assigned. When that por-tion of the message, referring to thowant of power in Congress to makewar upon a State, was read by Buchan-an to lien. Cans, the lslter is represent-ed as taking the President by the handand thanking him for bis statesma'-likeviowt". Since then Secretaiy Cass hasurged tl.e use of the army and navy toenforce a due oxecu'ion of the Federallawn in South Carolina, and threatenedto resign if it w ere not done. Secreta-ry Floyd joined it-sue, and promised hisresignation if any forces were orderedto Charleston. In this extremity Gen.Scott was again tilegniphed for, andconsulted by the President. It appearsthat Ciipt. Andersor, comm tiding FortMoultrio, first reported to Gen. 8cott,but was referred by the General to thoSacrutarv of War, as ho (Gen. Scott)had no orders to give. On the Gener-al's arrival here, he insisted on nut be-ing complicated in tho matter at issuebetween ."ecretarieo Cass and Floyd,butat tho same lime stated, unequivocally,that ho approved of tho views of thelatter. This decided Mr Buuhauan'scourse and Secretary Casa tenderedhis resignation. Tho Pieeident de-manded his reason*. The^o have t>eencommunicated, and a response will begiven tomorrow

I understand- that Oon. Cass, in hisletter, relers to past bfatktry, when anadministration met t'.io same questiona* it should be mot, sustaining the con-stitution and tho laws. Jackson wasthen at the head of affairs, and Ca*8was tho Secretary of War. He com-plains that different counsels now provail; and that his voice is no longer re-garded. Tho President, I unders'.and,will reply at some length, referring togomu of tho facts to which I have al-luded. Tho correspondence will bepublished in a few days.

Official accounts of Gen. Cass'with-drawal say: On tho question of coerc-ing a State in the Union by militaryforce, the President and Gen. Cass aroperfectly united in opinion. Thedifficulty arose from the fact that Cassinsisted thatforce shouldCharleston to re r.force tho forts in* theharbor ; and that the President was oftho opinion that there U no necessity forsuch n measure in order to sucire theforte against attack. This being thoPresident's conviction, he would notnanjtinri any movement which might!o;;d '(•> a collision in the present escited

It is reported that Lieut. Gen.SCOTT had an interview with the Presi-dent on Saturday, and a serious uiisunderstanding, and that he threatenedto resign. It it ia even said that hohas resigned.

ho expressed tho belief that the missionwould be unsuccessful, unless ho couldboar with him some authorized pledgeof conservative policy from the partyabout to assume the control of the cen-eral government, but nothing clufibite hr.s beeu determined upon, by the

Charles O'Conner presided, andspeeches were made by John A. Dlx,John McKeon, and others.

Mr. McKeon expressed the opinionthat the Union was already dissolved ;that it would he a peaceable separationuntil after tho 4th of March ; and thatcivil war would then ensue.

At half-past one speeches wore stillbeing made on the motion to appointcominis^ionerd to proceed to fcsouthCarolina.

At the eouclusion of Mr. McKeon'sspeech, which was an earnest appealfor the correction of Northern publicsentiment in regard to the slave States,Hon. D-niel S. Dickinson addressedthe meeting. He prayed with DanielWobster, that when his eyes shouldlurn to behold the last time thesu:i inHeaven, he mijfht not see it shine onthe broken and dishonored fragmentsof a once glorious Union. The publicsentiment of the North must change.lie had little fa.th in meetings. TheSouth saw with just fear that in ,alittlowhile the North will have two-thirds ofthe Senate and House of Representa-tives. The repeal of laws will not satisfy the South. They know that autream cannot by any natural processbo made to rise higlier than the foun-tain. The north must get rid of itspernicious sectional sentiment—a senti-ment promulgated by demagogues, po-litical and ministerial. It was absurdto say that ail this would blow over.He Who says so is a demagogue, or ismad. South Carolina, on the I7th orI8th of ibis month, will go out of theUuion Tne rest of the cotton Stateswill follow, and in time every slavehold-ing Suites. This he regarded as cer-tain as that the sun would riso. ThoNorth should repeal all its uiifrinudly-laws, and in their place should setup adifferent public sentiment, as the bra-zen serpent was tet up in Israel, thatall who havo been bitten by tne poisonedserpent of abolitionism may look uponit and be healed.

Mr. Dickinson was frequently greeted•with applause during the delivery ofhis speech.

Hiram Ketehum spoke more hopeful-ly, and believed that public sentimentat home might b'i reached and correct-ed ; at least, he was for (Baking theeffort.

Letters were then read from a largenumber of distinguished gentlemenresiding in different parts of the State,after which Hon. Millard Fillmore,Hon. Green 0. Bronson, and RichardLathers. Esq., wore appointed a Com-mittee to visit the South.

Among the letters road were those ofMillard Filhnora, Washington Hunt,Rev. Dr. Hawks, Judge Puge, Jno. A.Green, and others.

Thurlow Weed and Compromise Measures.AlUnity, December 17.

The Eveuing Journal to-night pub-lishes a leading editorial from tho penof Thurlow Weed, taking strong con-servative ground, ai.d while firmlymaintaining the constitutionality of theprinciples of the. Republican party, advises such a compromise as will settleexisting difficulties and avert the evilsat present threatening tho Union.The compromises of the Journal areset forth as follows: We are preparedto say that an efficient but not revol-ting fugitive slave law should be fol-lowed by a repeal of tho PersonalLiberty Laws.

We are almost propnred to say thatTerritories may be safely left to takscare of themselves, and that when theycontain a population which under thocensus entitles them to a Represontalive in Congress, they may come intothe Union with a State government oltheir own framing, provided, of course,hat they conform to the Constitutionof the "United States.

This, in view of the surroundings oftho territory belonging to tho Republic—in view of tho tact that for fouryears at least freedom will have fairplay—and in v'ew also, of two otherelements—emigration and the census,this we say alrajut constrains us to

To avoid nil misconstruction or mis !

statement of tl.e reason which causedthis event, wo have taken pains to asoerta n the true cause. It is not that iMr. C-isa differed from tho President inregard to any portion of his late mos-siige. On the groat question of coerc-ing a Stato to remain in the Union bymilitary force, the President and Gen.Casa wero perfectly united in opinion.The difficulty arose from the fact thatMr. Cass insisted that the naval andmilitary fuce should be sent immedia-tely to Charleston to reinforce the fortsin the harbor, and that the Presidentwas of the opinion that there was nonecessity for any such measure in ord-er to secure the forts against attacks

It is certain that Gen. CASS has seri-ously differed with the President uponhis duty in the present crisis. Maj.ANDBRSON, tho officer in charge of FortMoultrie, in Charleston Harbor, hadofficially called for reinforcements toaid him to hold tho fort against the at-tack cf a mob which ho had good rea-son to fear. Gen. CASS favored com-plying with tho request, but tho Presi-dent and Cabinet decided not to grantit. Gen. CASS protested that if Maj.ANDERIOX was a competent officer andentitled to bo continued in his command,the reinforcements should bo given.The President acknowledged his com-petence, but determined to leave himand tho three score men under him atthe mere}' of tha mob. Gen. CASS nat-urally thought that this decision of thoPresident was evidence of a dispositionto play into tho hands of the Secession-ists, and has washed his hands of it.We honor him for his course, his Statowill honor him for it, tho Nation willhonor him for it, and the world willhonor him for it. It is a just rebuke totho tampering and imbocilo polioy oftho President, and from tho righ'-source.

But, inpermitted

this connection, wo must beto sav, that it would havo

been bettor for tho fame of Gen. CABS ;better for the Democratic party whichho has honored in times past, and whichhas honored him ; and better for thecountry had he manifested a similarfirmness at that hour when the Presi-dent deserted the platform upon whichhe was e'ected, turned his back uponhis friends, and entered upon a coursewhich, resulting in tho dismebermentand defeat of the once proud and dom-inant Democratic party, has broughtthe Union itself to the verge of ruin.Then was tho time we should have re-joiced to hnv<» seen Gen. CASS rebuketho President, and a rebuke thenwould have done more ro preserve theUriiop. than it will now. I^ut better latethan never.

It was reported some days sincejn the papers of Detroit, that Postmast.er WOODBURV, of Whito Pigeon, sup-posed to have committed suicide a fewmonths since while under an arrest oncharge of robbing the mail, had beenseen and recognized in Chicago, andthat his grave had been examined andonly a stick of wood found in his coffinThe United Statos Marshal forthwithsent out a Deputy to investigate thematter, who has returned and pronounced the report a hoax, the bodybeing lound in its grave. The rascalwho would harrow up the feelings ofa widow and children by setting such areport afloat ought to be laihed nakedthrough the land.

1& At a meeting of tho Board ofRegents of the University of Michigan,held on Tuesday, the followling resolu-tions touching the recent death of HKN-RY W. WKLLES, Esq., Treasurer of theUniversity, were offered by Regent A pIntyre and unanimously adopted :

An inscrutable Providence having-since the last meeting of the Board ofRegents, vacated the office of Treasur-er of tho LTniversity, by calling to hiafinal account the late incumbent, HenryWelles, thus depriving the University ofthe valuable services of a most excel-lent officer, and creating a large void inthe family circle of which he was thehonored centre', aud in the Community,in which he was a. highly honoredmember; therefore,

In this, the hour of our calamity andperil, to whom shall we resort for reliefbut to the God of our fathers? Hisom-uijjDiiMit arm only can save us from ihea>*ful effects of our own crimes aud lol-lies—our owu ingratitude aud guilt to-wards our Heavenly Father.

Let us, then with deep contrition andpenitent sorrow, unite iu humbling our-selves bistore the Most High, iu confess-ing our individual aud national sins, audin acknowledging the justice of our pun-ishment, Jjct us implore Him to removefrom our huarts that false pride of opin-ion which would impel us to persevere inwrong tor the sake of consistency, ratherthan yield a just submission to the unfor-seen exigencies by whioh we are now sur-rounded.

The Resignation of Secretary Cobb.WASHINGTON CITY, Dec. 8, 1860.

MY DKAU SIR—A sense of duty to theState of Georgia requires me to take astep which makes it proper that I shouldno longer continue to be a member ofyour Cabinet.

In the troubles of the country conse-quent upon the late Presidential election,the honor and safety of my State are in-volved. Her people so regard it, and intheir opinion I fully concur. They areengaged in a struggle where the issue islife or death. My friends ask for rayviews and counsel. Not to respond wouldbe degrading to myself and unjust tothem. I have accordingly prepared, andmust now issuo to them, an address whichcontains the calm and solemn convictionsof my heart and judgment.

The views which I sincerely entertain,and which therefore I am bound to ex-press, differ in some respects from yourown. Tho existence of this differencewould expose me, if I should remain inmy pre eut place to unjust suspicions,and put you iu a false position The firstof these consequences I could bear wellenough, but I will not subject you to thelast.

My withdrawal has not been occasionedby ain thing yon have said or done.—Whilst differing from your message uponsome of its theoretical doctrines, as wollas from the hope so earnestly expressedthat the Union can jet be preserved,there was no practical result likely tofollow which required me to retire fromyour administration. That necessity iscreated by what I feel it my duty to do;and the responsibility ef tho act, there-fore, rests alone upoD myself

To say that I regret,—deeply regret,—this necessity, but feebly expresses thefeeling with which I pen this communica-tion. For nearly four years I have beenassociated with you as one of your Cabi-net officers, and during that period noth-ing has occurred to mar, pven for a mo-ment, our personal aud official relatious.In the policy and measures of your ad-ministration I have eordially concurred,and slial! ever feel pr.>ud of the humbleplace wiiio.1.' my ^ I na3' 0CCUP>' '" i t s

history. If your- wise counsels and patri-otic warnings had been heeu'ed by yourcountrymen, the 4th of March next, vrouldhave found our country happy, prosper-eus. and united. That it will not be so,is no fault of yours.

The evil has now passed beyond con-trol, and must be met by each and all ofus under our responsibility to God andour country. If, as I believe, historywill !;ave to record yours as tho last ad-ministration of our present. Union, it willalso place it side by side with the purestand ablest of those that preceded it

With the kindest regards for yourselfand the members of your Cabinet, withwhom I have been so pleasantly associa-ted.

I am, most truly and Bincerely.your friend,

HOWELL COBB.To the PRESIDKNT.

WASHINGTON, December 10, 1860MY DKAR tMR— I have received your

communication of Saturday resigning theposition of Secretary of the Treasury,which you have held since the commence-ment of my administration. Whilst Ideeply regret that you have determinedto separate yourself from UB at the pres-ent critical moment, yet I admit that thequestion was one for your own decision.1 could havo wished you had arrived at adifferent conclusion, because our relations,both official aud personal, have ever beenot the most friendly and confidential char-acter I may add "that I have been en-tirely satisfied with the ability and zealwhich you havo displayed in performingthe duties of vour important office.

Cordially reciprocating your sentimentsof personal regard,

I remain, very respectfully, your friend,JAMES BUCHANAN.

Tne elocutionary aim of theseHeader is to teaeh children to read correctly,not by rule,but by habit, and to this end the constant practice efrending correctly is Insulted upoo, as being f»r more efi-cai-.i.us than Hules to correct bad habits already form-ed.

The scrofulous taint is variously
