THE SILVER SIXPENCE. "Do you see here," said a ragged little boy to a group of gaily dressed urchins, as he came from Market-street wharf, in Philadelphia, "do you see here, I've got a silver sixpence." 'Why," said Jeremiah Budd, whose father was a wealthy ship-master, "I have six dollars to spend on Christmas, and that fellow is proud of a sixpence." Theodore heard, and looked thoughtfully on the ground for a moment; then recolecting him

self, "six dollars to spend," but sixpence to keep

is bettei than that."

Theodore kept his sixpence in his pocket,

carefully wrapped up for several weeks, but

one day his uncle, who kept a fruit shop at the corner of the alley where he lived, said to him

"Theodore, your sixpence won't grow in your

pocket, you should plant it."

Theodore understood him better when he

told him he might buy some fruit in the market with it and stand in his shop and sell it out again. He embraced the offer, doubled his money the first day, and went on until he had as much fruit to sell as he had room for in his little corner. His uncle, observing the thrifty, and withal honest, turn of the boy, finally took him into

nis store as an assistant, and allowed him to trade sundry specified articles on his own ac

count

The closest attention to business, the most ireful management of his small funds, and

that f!n of good luck, as it is called, which gen

erally rui: with those who are saving, industri

ous and prude'nt, in the course of three'or four years enabled him to go into full partnership with his ancle, and to extend his business, and

double his former amount. Having trimmed his satis right at first, it be

came a second nature with Theodore to keep what sailors call close the wind; and he made astonishing headway now. Soon after he was

twenty-one, he was able to buy out the whole

stock of a dry-goods merchant and got into bus

iness on his own account entirely. Still he

prospered, became an importer, finally changed

his business for a wholesale concern, embarked in the India trade, and at last married a fine

girl whose fortune was little inferior to his own; and it is said, that after that occurrence he was worth not less than half a million. Theodore now Hv(kJ in an elegant mansion in Arch street, kept his carriaf e, and had everything in handsome style, and yt attended as usual to his business. That he mf g M never lose sight of his fortune, the silver sixpe?"e was blended with the arms on his carriage; it form

ed the arms, the seal with which he stamper his letters; and he had one of the coins he used to say the very identic' ",c ,,ts nrst ownedfastened upon m counting room, remembering them constantly, that by small means he Ud risen; he still amongmiirhju"ll hWiiTTeT charity, lookedjV8r?a1lthines, "ud neTer forgot fcCVSr to reckon pence as well as pounds.

Thus smoothly, were Theo lore's affairs going forward, when onesultry summer's day, just as he entered his counting room, a thin white person presented himself at the counter and aked

for employment. He wore a thread-bare sun of black, an old hat, and his shoes were almost Teadv to drop off hi? feet. In what opacity."

said Theodore, "do yon wish for employment?" "In any capacity," was the reply: "but. sir," continued the stringer, wipin? tear from bis eye with h'u com sleeve, "my father was a merchant, and be brought me up to his profession; I should, therefore, be glai of employment as a

Theodore looked at him closely. He thought

he saw some lineaments he Temembered.

his head, and reliel, "Jeremiah Budd."

not forgotten the ragged little boy with his sil

ver sixpence. Had I been as careful of my

thousands as he was of his pence, I should not

day."

There was a half triumphant smile on Theo

dore's face as ha took the hand of his visitor,

which seemed to spring from self-complacent

feelings, which was excusable, because it rose

partly from the consciousness of his ability to

aid one whose imprudence had caused his mis-

fVomtAe Christian Observer. PREACHING TO A DYING GYPSY. Messrs. Editors: The following anecdote of George III, late King of England, which I find in one of the works of Charlotte Elizabeth, exhibits a beautiful example, worthy of record

as a memento to Christians in every walk of

life, to be ready to impart instruction and consolation to the poor, the distressed and dying. "The poor ye have always with you." It is related of George III. that vhen hunting near Windsor once, with his characteristic tenderness of feeling, he relinquished the enjoyment of the chase out of compassion to his exhausted horse, and, gently riding alone

through the avsnuejof the forest, was led by the cry of distress to an open space, where,under a branching oak, on a little pallet of straw, lay a dying gypsy woman. Dismounting and hastening to the spot, his majesty anxiously inquired of the girl, who was weeping over the

sufferer, "What, my dear child, can be done

for you?" "Oh, sir, my dying mother wanted a religious person to teach her, and pray with her before she died. I ran all the way before it was light this morning to Windsor.and asked

for a minister, but no one could I find to come and pray with my dear mother." The dying

woman's countenance bore witness that she un

derstood and felt the cruel disappointment.

The King O lovely lesson for kings! exclaimed, "I am a 'minister; and God has sent

mb to instruct and comfort your mother."

Then, seating himself on a pack, he took the

hand of the gypsy woman, shewed" the nature

and demerit of sin, and pointed her to Jesus,

the one and all-sufficient Saviour. His words appeared to sink deep into her heart; her eyes

brightened, she looked up, she smiled; and,

while an expression of peace stole over her

pallid features, her spirit fled away, to bear a

precious testimony before the King of kings,of

that minister's faithfulness to his awful charge. When the party, who had missed their sovereign, and were anxiously searching the woods for him, rode up, they found him seated by the corpse, speaking comfort to the weeping children. The sequel is not loss beautiful: I quote the words of the narrative. "He now rose up,

ARRIVAL OF THE ACADIA. The steamship Acadia, Capt. Ryric, arrived at Boston lust Thursday, with the mail of Nov. I from Liverpool, and 50 passengers. The news is thirteen days later than we had before received. A dreadful storm occurred on the coast of England on the last of October, occasioning great loss of life and property. The state of the com market aud the extensive failures which had taken place ia different cities in England and Scotland, in consequence of the great speculations, were the principal topics of interest in the mercantile circles. Giace Darling, it appears, is dead. She died at Rainburgh on tlut 20th October. Belgium and tue U. S. The Belgian Government has detcimined to make reprisals on

the American trade, in consequence of the Government of the United States having levied tonnage and other duties, not paid by favored nations, on the steamer the British Queen, ia her last voyage from Antwerp to New York. According to the Monileur Beige of Wednes

day the following ordinance has been made:

"The vessels of the United States will in future bo subjected in Belgian ports to the tonnage and pilotage dues chargeable, according to the regulations in force, upon the vessels of nations which are nut favored. The reimbursement of the tolls of the Scheldt is provisionally suspended as regards the vessels of the United States." On this subject of Belgian reprisal, the National makes the following remarks:

was aeeidently wou-ided by the premature dis

charge of a gun in the bands of her son; the

wound proved fatal; but before she died she

sent for Justice Merritt. of New Jersey, ami told him the following facts. On the Sunday

of Miss Rogers' disappearance she came to her house from this city in company w ith a young physician, w ho undertook to procure for her a premature delivery. While in the hands of the

physician she died, and a consultation was then held as to the disposal of her body. It was fi

nally taken at night by the son of Mrs. Loss and sunk into the river where it was found.

Her clothes were first tied up in a bundle and

sunk in a pond on the land of Mr. Jas. G. King

in that neighborhood; but it was alterwaras thought they w ere not safe there, and they w ere accordingly taken and scattered through

the woods as they were found. The name of the physician is unknown to us, nor do we know whether it wts divulged or not. The Mayor has been made acquainted w ith these facts by Mr. Merritt, and 've doubt not an immediate inquiry after the guilty wretch w ill be made. The son of Mrs. Loss, as an accessary

Compassion of a Judge in Texas. A very Varned and compossionate judge in Texas, on pissing sentence on one John Jones, who had been convicted of murder, concluded his remarks as follows: "The fact is, Jones, that the

Court did not intend to order you to be executed before next spring, but the weather is very

condition much of the glass ia the windows

In consideration of these circumstances, and wishing to Jesson your sufferings as much as possible, the Court, in the exercise of its humanity and compassion, do hereby order you to"be executed to-morrow morning, as soon after breakfast as may be eonre-

deeply at this revelation, and that the scene of j the unhappy victim's death is rilieved of some of the horrors with which conjecture.apparently well founded, had surrounded it. If we rec

from a remote

part of the Court .'town, it was soon maniested that she h id caaa'bt the contagion of ber j mother's grief, and it was iti '! i 1 she exerted herself to stifle her sohs. SIk riO'Pver knew j noth'ngof the alleged violence, because appre-l bending difficulty, she had taken her ii'fi.'M from her mother nnd laft the room, as befoie! stated. But her conflict of feelings, aiising

from the rival claims to her aff-ctions. between herhnsMnd and mother, almost overwhelmed her. and her truly unhappy position, with the evident struggle which was rending her bosom

anDroacbed her mother, she found herself

locked in her parent's embrace, and mutual

tears and audible sympathies soon absorbed the

attention of the Court, Jurors, and spectators

The husband instantly rushed to bis wife, and

removed her from her mother, and while conducting her awav, the Chief Justice, partaking

of the deep feeling throughout the Court RoomJ

in decided and emphatic tone, directed the hus

The whole w as truly a thrilling scene, and heart. The

wresting of the daughter from the mother seeemed to the latter like the tearing of a limb

brutal language, he w ould soon be exclucu rrom all decent society; if be does these things as au editor the public, to say the least, isvery tolerant.

States indiscriminately, European capitalist judge the character of the whole people by the acts and defaults of 6ome fne or six States. This w e think natural, these States constituting

a part of the nation, and there having been on the port of the others no general and popular disclaimer of repudiation; though .individually reprobated by all persons of character, w ithout distinction of party. The consideration is, what is the remedy for this distrust, which is keeping back our unemployed capital from our best customer at the time of bis greatest need, thereby protracting his financial embarrassments, and preventing the completion of public works of undoubted utility? In respect to the

! delinquent Stales, it is essential that they should

evince their determination to pay their cebts,

adopting a system of effecting taxation and establishing order in their finances. And as this distrust is a national concern effecting the char

acter and interests of the w hole people, the GeneralGovernment should afford every cooperation which the laws and circumstances of the country will permit. It is important likewise that the public feeling of America shood be expressed in respect to repudiation, and the obligations arising out of a pledge f thepublic faith. As respects the British public, we trust they will judge with candor the States and General Government, making dee

allowance for the unprecedented financial embarrassments now existing in the United State Confidence, when deserved, should not be with held; the present alienation between the tv.i countries has lasted too long. A proper sys
