Ife whipped the whole Camanche tribe ' ' One day bofore he dine J; And for a walking cane he took ' A California pine ' And when he frowned, he was so black Tho sun it could not shine. ' ' lie whipped a ton of grizzly bears , One morning with a fan; ' ; And proved himself by all these feats, 1 To be a Western man. t . ' ' Who was tbe Gentleman. "Charles wants me to go to tbe party to morrow night," said one lady to another, as the two sat in the comfortable parlor chatting and knitting. , . -,i 'La! well -why dont you go, dear?" asked Mrs. Lawrence. ; "I am sure I would go, if Henry aaked me;. I haven't been in company fur such a long time that, I really think it would do me good." "That's just what Chnrlcj Baid.and ha told me Ilotiry said he would take you if I would go." La! did ho? why, he didn't say anything to me about it; to be sure I'll go if you will I'll just fix up my old brown silk, and put a new ribbon on toy cap; we are old fashioned folks, you know, and it wont matter much how we dress." VI might hare gone often," said Mrs. Adams, placidly smoothing the folds of her eown: "but sonienow 1 never wanted to. Charles is dreadful anxious that I should see Miss Somebody, I forget who, some ono .lie has takon a great fancy to; and I think who-orer Charles; likes must be a little extra; so I am anxious, for a wonder, to go. Well, good morning; I put my, bread to risin and if I don't hurry it will be over the pan?." . ... ... When Henry came home to tea, he was surprised and a little disappointed to hear his mother say that she would go with him on the following evening. As Mrs. Lawrence had said, both of the mothers were plain old-fashioocd people. They had once buen poor, both bad been left widows.but by much thrift and economy, had main god to give their sons a good education, and they were . both now rising young men with fortune in prospect. Both being handsome, eloquent and fascinating, they were both admired by theladies.and it was straoge that they had arrived, one at the age of twenty-eight and the other at thirty, . without selecting wivvS for them selves. ' . , .-, Tho night of the party came. Henry Law-rence surveyed his mother with a critical eye as she came down stairs,handkerchief in band, attired for the occasion. ' "Ilavn't you a. smaller handkerchief th'n that?" he asked, when he spread it on her lap, preparatory' to adjusting .her dress in it to carry, that she might not get it jammed. ... J ... . i'- - . La, yes, bat this is tho nicest," she replied;''! pat that beautiful, great piece of lace around H purpose; why! don't oo like it?" '. - rtW't - t v '- "It Isn't genteel; ha? n't you got a smaller ontt" .!'" i.i ', t- . tv ' "LaVyes; if you think so. I'll get ona of them little mita of things, but tbis ia more totnytasta." :: .--; r .- ;- "Well, wa most start now; I shall b under the necessity of leaving you for a while after we got thore.es I have to go fur a young lady." Are yoa ready TA-" , ; i-' "Oh, y,"eid the'cheerfurold, mother. "I abari't mind staying, and looking at the folks at Ihey eome in; il'a natural for yo -ng folks to like young folks,'! aba said to herself ai she west up stairs to get ber bonnet and shawl.'';'- y' i; ' ' ' They walked nearly a mile.the woms vrera Just righted when they arrfaed Henry put his Bolbarrsohraof the lady's maid, and wishes her to stay rii the drraamg TOom till he came altar bar, thw hiring an agpansiva HmjtUp, luitfiff ift pf oil' al alter a young lady of seventeen to whom he had offered his escort. Mrs. Lawrence wit contentedly chatting with the waiting maid, whilo tbe guests came to uushawl, many of whom wondered who that queer old lady was. Charles Adams came home to supper that same night In high glee. "Well, mother, I do declare," he exclaimed, as theoldjady in a plain grey dress greeted him at the tuble; "yon do look so nice; what a pretty cap you've got, and there-I meant to buy you a more stylish fan, but that is rather pretty, if it is plain." "Oh, yes, this la good enough for an old woman," said Jiis mother, smiling. "Nothing is good enough for yoo, mother, in my estimation," replied Charles, drinking bis tea "are yoo all -ready ? liocause I have sent for a carringo and it will be here in a fow moments. Tou won't ohject, I siipposo.to ri ding with another lady, tho very one, by the bye, I am anxious for you to see." "Iam all ready," said his mother, smiling, "and shall be very happy to ride with your young friond; is it far from here?", "Only half a mile,'' ho replied, rising from the table, "and there is the carriage" Henry Lawrence enteral the beautiful par lors with his mother on. his arm, walked half sheepishly ta the hostess and presented htr then looked ber a corner where she might sit, if possible, nnnoticed,and where herold-fashioned sayings, and quite tingramroatical ex pressions would not be called on. After seating her, he hurried away, and again en tered with a dashing, showy girl, sparkling with jewels, whom he kept' on his arm longer than etiquette required, and to whom he nev er mentioned his. mother, fearing her ideas of gentility and modern elegance might re ceive a shock, from which she would not re cover. , . Charles Adams, on the contrary, entered with his mother on one arm and a beautiful girl, splendidly, yot modestly dressed, on the other. Conducting both to sats. he led tip his friends as he met them, and introduced his mother with as much grace, and proudly too. as if he had said, - "all I am, I owe to this! excellent woman." And walked with s her, in fact, Rhowing her more attention than the young lady, who it was plain to see, bad won his love.' "'. ' ' I do not see Mrs. Lawrence," said his mother, on one of these occasions. "I am af. laidshn did'nt com-. I have seen Henry several times, with a very handsome young lady." "We will walk throagh the rooms.'respon-ded Cbarles, "T am certain she came." They lound hor at last sitting contentedly, but with a somewhat worried look upon ber countenance, as if she was not enjojing the evening as sho wished. "We have been looking for you," said Mrs. AdsniR. "why do you not come out among the crowd?" . "Oh, they are all strangers to we, you k.iow."said Mrs. Lawronce, quietly. "So they were to me," said the other, "but Charles has been introducing me to so many, that I feel tolerably acquainted now." A look almost of pain passed over 'he palo face of her friend. Honry had been near her but once in the evening, and to request her not to show her pocket handkerchief too much, as it had an old fashioned mark upon it. He had not brought up tho stylish young girl and mado her acquainted with the one on whom he had resolved to bestow . his affections, for sho was intensely fashionahlo, and ho was weak minded enough to believe that a presentation would injure his suit. "Are you not going to take your mother in to supper?" asked Charles of Henry; the latter hadnnly the lady of his affections, the former, his mother at one side, and his affi-ano.d at tho othor. "I am coming back for her," said nenrjr, blushing scarlet. The young lady gazed towards birn inquir-ringly. , "Is your mother here," she asked; "I should have so liked to see her." "I will bring her presently," said Henry; but the mischief was done. ' When the young lady saw tho plain, old-fashioned woman with her homely common sense, she saw tbe heartlessnesa of the man who professed, by action at least, to lovo her'; and from that mo ment he lost all charm in her eyes. To Charles' betrothed; on the contrary, the young man, who could, in the heartless face of fash, ion. show respsct to grey hair, and love man ly and noble, to tho plain illiterate mother who had reared him. was above all petty pride, all littleness ol character; and she gazed at him with humid eyes, and With a feeling that would have beeh mote prtcious to him, could he have known tbein, than her sweetest wbrds of love.'

St. James, the newly elect Mayor of the city ol St. Genevoi va one of the southeast river towns ol Missouri, the strong hold of tha slavery prejudice, takes strong ground in favor ot tree labor, in his inaugural message be says:"At a time when everything indicates an early change in the institutions of the State, consequent on the decline ol the fatal Southern prejudices, which have so long obtainod resulting in a largo influx of emi gration from the prosperous States of th North it is both the duty and the interest of the citizens ol those towns lying oh tho great highway over which they must pass, to give assurance not only of protection to per. son and property, hut of warm sympathy in their principles. It affords me pleasure tn state on the part ofour citizens, that no such prejudice against free 'vhite labor, whicn characterizes some ofour Missouri river towns is tolerated here that mon of all climes and principles will find a hearty welcome at oi" hands." Tho Ohio Wheat Crop. The Cleveland ITerall has collected some interesting statistics relating to wheat grotv ing in Obio, and especially to the damage done othe crops by the frost, from which we extract the following: - It Is now generally conceded that the quad rangular Territory bounded on the Smth by the National Road, and on the West by the railroad from Columbns to Sandusky, and on tha East by Pennsylvania, Ih where the frost has been the most destructive, and that outside of these lines , it has only extended in narrow strips in occasional places. The first queiy is. what was the product of that tract of country? In 1857 Ohm had the largest wheut crop that was gathered for many years, the quantity being by return to the Stale Auditor 25.397,614 bushels, of which tho quan tity in ttie above described Jistrict north of the five counties through which the National Road passes, amounted to 6.270.270 bu-h- eU if we add to this the product of the five countios through whioh the rotd passes, the total amount producod in tha "inlectld district," was 7,907,013 boshels leaving ns the product of the rest of tbe State 17,439,701 bushels. " , Supposing that three-querlera of the crop in the ' infectid district" is a total loss, It woold st'll leave the State a crop of nineteen and a half millions of bushels, for It will be admitted that the' increased breadth ROtrt south of tbe national road, and in the western counties of the State, will more than halanco the loeslsustained by fmst outside of tbe frosted district. With the ample allowance in ade for tha loss by thn finst in 'he qnadrangle, joined In the increawd breadth sown, compared with 1837, we think a safe conjecture ia made in estimating the present crop, over and abrrva th loss hy front, at twenty.two million of bmhela of wbt tf wa call tha population of tha B'a 1'XOlfO and allow tour, bunhols'aa the average ami sumption of each individual, and the' number of acres devoted to whoat as being 2,000,000, requiring 4.000,000 bushels for see), we still have a surplus of 8,000,000 bushels boyond our requirements for food and seed. In making these statements we aim to lie candid, tn look at the I nsi full In the face, and to neither lengthen nor shorten figure! ti fit any theory suggested by the disaster.

That we protest against tho sectional and pro-slavery policy nf the National Admin istration, ns at war with tha rights of the people and subversive of tho principles of our Government. ' 3. That we denounce, and will unitedly oppose, all attempts to enact a Congressional slavo code for tho Territories, believing the same to be utterly at war with the true p :r-pose of our Government, and repugnant to tho moral sense of tha nation; and that wa af firm our continued hostility to the extension of slavery over the Territories of the Union. 4. That we regard all suggestions and propositions of every kind, by whomsoovor made, for a revival of the African slave trade, as shocking to the moral sentiments of the en lightened portion of mankind; that any action on the part of the government r people con niving at or legalizing that horrid and inhuman traffic, would Justly subject the government and citizens of the United States' to the "ppronch and execration nf all civilized and christian people, snd the inaction of tho National Administration in bringing the slave traders to justice, and its course in Nending such ns have been arrested to trml in places where acquittal was certain, auhjaot it fairly to the charge of conniving at the praotical reopening of that traffic 6. That we hold the enconragem,,nt and protection of home prod notion and American industry to lie one of the first duties ofour government; and (he failure to obtain strh encouragement and protrc'ion Irom tbe last Con- tress, notwithstanding tho professions of the President, convince us that the laboring mass es of the free States will look in vain for tariff for the protection nf their labor while tho administration of ' the government is in the hands of the party now in power; and that we lielieve tbe valnrm svstein wholly inadeqna'e to the protection we demand, and in lieu of it we are In favor of specific dctles upon iron, coal, salt and all such other pro ducts wholly the growth and manufacture of the United States.

Join' Hickman vs. Buchanan. At a convention recently held at Harris- burgh. Pennsylvania, Hon. John Hickman (Democrat,) made an eloquent speech front wnicli we take the following extracts: ' The history of Mr. Buchanan's executive lite has already been written, and too plainly, ' to be obliterated hy bribed eulogy, or to ba misunderstood by the people of this Stat-and nation. Neither political conjuration' nor party magic can make them forget tha wicked violation of pledges, the arrogance of bloated power, the prostitution of Congress, the profligacy ol departments, or tha rapid and marked encroachments upon popular con. . slitntional rights. Jiidsment.flnal judmaenr, has been calmly and deliberately passed upon this treason to the democracy ,thi assagai, nation of common honesty, and it ia as irre- . versa hi as the decrees of God. It is wise, therefore, in this convention, to speak tha truth plainly, and to avoid the folly of an attempt to cover up nn audacious criminality we must all condemn. (Applause.) - Bv the action of the 34ih Conitreas. tha complaipts made by the rea'denta of Kansaa were ascertained to be true. Although tha South, ly tho legislation of 1854, was pledg- 1 cd to maintain the domestic sovereignty of the territories, a portion of their people from Missouri entered upon tha soil of Kanaaa, and hy force and fraud.siezed the lawmaking power, stilled the voice of the majority, and enacted statutes disgraceful to tho age and ' nation. 1 h lads wben legally revealed , ' made a deep impression upon the publio mini and Mr. Buchanan found it necessary, in or der to carry the election in his own stale, ta pledge himself distinctly to the maintenanoa of the doctrine of popular sovereignty, and ' to defend the rights of those who hid been-thus ruthlessly despiiled. I will not pre. ' tend to indicate the particular weakness ia his nature that induced him to turn the hand of tha suicidj against hia own fame, aa it matters little whether it arose from timidity, a fear of hil enemies outwe going a love of his fiiends, a careless disregard of fair deal, ing, or a weak puerile vanity. Ii ia enough to know that ha deceived all our hopes, turn ed with tha blackest ingratitude npon tha self-aacrifi d friendship by which be reached the goal of his feverish ambition, and sought by all the mean within tha reach of drun. ken and staggering authority, to disgrace every man whom ha could nut dubauoh. . Suddenly, and as by tha touch of the wand of the magician, he became transformed front the sympathiser with down trodden freedom, to the open and shameless defender oi aggressive and Inw-dufying slavery. (Lcud ' and continued applause.) The halls of the national legislator war turned into marts for conscience, be publish, ed his interpretations of party principles and plutfor.DS with tha arrogance of a dictator; and commanded his subordinates in otBoe, and his coward slaves, to reiterate and pro. claim his bulls of party excommnnicstioa against all who were rash enough to follow an independent judgment. These seta af themselves are enough to sevtr allegiance. It would he an ill Kliaiien nunhoed which could tolerate them in silence. But becauaa wo denounce them, we are anathematised aa rebellions. Sir, we will ane where th rebel- lion will end ft will end in th supremacy of the laws; in the integrity of theconatitu. tion; in the purification of partial; in th sworn loyalty cf exeoutivas, and the vigorona growti), material greatness, and eternal dona, inanceof tho North. (Applause ) ' There is where it will end. Popular as, ereignty. invo'-ed by th south,' will he defended by us, and it shall unfold lbs vailed, yet dimly discovered destiny of this great republic' We are battling for the right, frr the spirit ol the Institutions Our fathers established: let ns feel that we are doing this, and we will accomplish the victory of our century. Not a mere nnkod triumph at tha pol's, but the geal success afterwards tha nntrammnlteil self covernment of men: th dedication of a continent to a eonsitUut liberty. (Applause.) Those who stop to talk of enneflialieifi ana compromises between ns and theaelf-conati-tuted oracles of the Democratio party aan hare but a froMe appreciation or tha real condition of things. When you can harmonic light and darkness.
