ROMANCE OF REAL LIFE.
. The Baltimore papers states that the Gov
ernor of Maryland had granted a free pardon to James L. Hawkins, who as cashier of the
Franklin Bank ot Baltimore, embezzled a
large amount of its funds, some three years
since.; The announcement of this pardon prompts the Baltimore correspondent of the
Boston Atlas to relate the following. We
know not how it may affect others, but this
simple unadorned narrative of woman's in
tegrity and love, and that nice sense of honor which could hide a stain only by the deep
covering of the grave, has touched our feel
ings more than the most highly wrought ro
mance: Cincinnati Gazette.
ins aeiaications were large, ana run
through a long series -of years. They were concealed by many ingenious devices, and were only discovered by accident, during a temporary absence of Hawkins from the Bank. On the discovery of the defalcation, Hawkins immediately gave up all his property of every kind, and his wife a noble
woman, without solicitation, and even a
gainst some remonstrance on the part of her relatives, executed a deed renouncing her
right of dower in a very valuable real estate
They were thus, in their old age reduced to
poverty, with all the attendant evils of crime
upon the husband. Those of your readers
who remember the account I wrote you, wi
recollect that as soon as Mrs. Hawkins had
executed the deed renouncing her dower
she went to her bed, and in a few days pined
away, literally dying of a broken heart
"Which kills more, than are numbered in the
lists of fate." - .-
Those who were present at the sick bed
bethought them of petitioning the Governor lor a pardon for the father. A. petition was
got up for the purpose, and was speedily signed by men of all parties those who had
lost most by the bank, eagerly signing it tor the sake of the daughter. The petition was sent to the Governor accompnnied with a short letter from the daughter a letter
which, though short, could not fail to move
the heart of a man and the pardon soon
came.
There is something so peculiar in this
case it has lor us, here in .Baltimore, so
strange an interest and is, withal, so extraordinary; that I have thought that your
readers would like to read it., I have there
fore written it, and would only add, that I do not envy the feelings of that man who could
shut bis heart against the appeal that was
made in this case, in behalf of this poor man.
iiawkins will return to this State, but not
to this city. He has been offered a home by
a relative, on a farm in a retired part of the
State, and there, in the sweet society of his
daughter, he will pass the remainder of his days.
Wholesale Business. Tiie Mississipian,
published at Jackson, contains the following
announcement:
"Sale of Judgments. About four hundred
and fifty judgments, many of them for large amounts, will be sold at Raymond on Monday, the 6th inst. -These cases have been
regularly advertised, as required by law, for three months, and are to be sold for the costs
at court. They are judgments of foreign
creditors, obtained in the Circuit Court of

TIIE NEW TERRITORY OF NEBRASKA
The Secretary of War prepoaes to establis h a
new Territory, at the Eietern slope ol the Rocky Mountains, un the head waters of the Piatte
nd the Arkansas, to be called toe leruory 01
Nebraska. We believe this is the Indian name
f the Platte river. This Territory would be on ml 1 I J
our own acknowledged soil, ana wouia command the grand paas between the Atlantic and Pacfiic Ocean. Near this point rise the lofty Peaks of the Northern Andes, around whose
brows circle perpetual snows. On either side
roll down the waters which miiigle the Gulf ol
Mexico on this side with the Gulf of California on the South-west, and with the broad Pacific, as it washes the Western coast of Amer-
ca. '
The advantages of this position, in a military
or colonial point of view are immense. It would
make the journey of the emigrants west, com
paratively easy. They would lioia hive defence
and rest. In case of interference Irom loreign
powers, the troops of the nation would be ready to descend either on the South, or on the Pacific outlets of Oregon, or move on the British
territories of the JNorth. It is the great central positon ol the North American Continent, mar
ked out by the God ol natu-e as remarnaoie, oy the magnificence of its moutains, its streams,
and us extent! Whoever possesses and brings
u d future generations on this high central plat
eau will be unconquerable in position ind energy. - - The Secretary also recommends a chain of mili
tary posts on our own 1 erritory, extending irom Missouri to the Rocky Mountains. Against this no natiou can say a word. It is our own soil, and we must possess it. New York Tri

THE CHINESE.
As our political and commercial relationswith
China are becoming interesting to statesmen, the public have a natural curiosity to know
something more about the appearance, dress and manners of the Chinese than can be gathered from the tea cups, and saucers, and ,rice
paper paintings.
Here are a few extracts: "People of condition " never go abroad but in
boots, wuicn are generally ot satin
silk."
- Grosier vol. 2 page 296. The Imperial family alone wear yellow.
and such Mandarins to whom the Emperor grams the honor of the yellow scarf."
Ingekious Expedient. A very eurious, but fully authentic anecdote may not be inappropriately inserted here, in' which Captain Ilinofos was concerned.' On one occasion being about to start on a beligerent expedition, he directed his orderly sergeant to fill a powder flask from an un-broached keg of twenty-five pounds. The
sergeant, having bof.d a hole with gimblet,
and hading that the powder issued too slowly, began to look lor something to enlarge the ap eriure, when his eyes happily fell on an iron poker, which lay in a corner of the fire place. To heat the poker and apply it to the holein the keg was the work of but a lew moments, when an explosion took place, which blew the upper part of the building into the street, tearing and shattering every thing else to atoms. Miraculous as their escape may appear, the sergeant.
as well as the captain, who witnessed the whole operation, remained more frightened than hurt, although they were both very severely scorched and bruised. This ingenious sergeant was af
terwards Secretary of Slate to Governor Gonzalez, ot revolutionary memory, and has nearly ever since held a clerkship in some of the offices of stale, but is now captain in the regular army. Journal of a Santa Fe Trader.

But I linger too ions upon this remarka

Shortly after the deatli of Mrs. Iiawkins, a
hill ot mdictment without any movement
on the part of those who had lost money by
him was found by our grand jury, and he,
then being out of the city, fled the State.

f" . Hawkins had been living away off in Lou

invoking aid to epprehend him and bring , , ' him here to punishment. The daughter determined to go to him. It was in vain that her friends pleaded with her in vain they held out to her the inducements of the so
ciety of her friends here, and the comforts,
- and even pleasures, which one so young and
so accomplished as she might enjoy, among
them. The thought of the sorrows of her father took possession of her whole soul, and
, at all bazzards,and despite, of every danger and discomfort that threatened, she announced her determination to go to him, and was
preparing to do so. It was truly with her

It is an uniortunate sign for a man's happiness,
when he has forgotten his boyish feelings. And vet, how rarely we find it otherwise! Parents, in
exercising authority ever their children, forget
that they ever were young. - They expect those
whose hearts throb with the warmth and disin
tercsteduess or youth, to think and act with the same cold, calculating, aud selfish feelings which predominate in their breasts. And these feelings
are the tssult of experience, they say! Verity,

On joys that ne'er can thrill their chords again,
