One of our Kintl ofiirl. ! A Biory is told by a tiavuler coining from 1 Detroit and writing to a Portland paper: ' On reaching tnc depot at Sa'pcniinn Brid1, the conductor told i youn man who-e health was very feehl and who was ' on l.is way to ISprinli'ld, M-iis., wlit-re he had friends he muat leave the cars, as he had no money with which to pay his fire. Notwithstanding the debilitated appearanee of the young man, he was suffered to be led ! out of the cr without any movement being made for his relief. As the young i.-ian was about stepping off the phiifoint, a voting lady rose in the itars and aked the conductor how much ti e ynunnian's fare would he to Albany, lie replied. . ight dollars. She immediately stepped to the door, and io!d the invalid ta return and resume his eat. He did so, and then some, of the male passpui gers began to exhibit a liule ch iri'y, otFering to pay a portion of the fate. The voting lady declined their prol!V-r"d a il, saying she : preferr d to pay (he amount LerM If. .Site did so, and beside giving him a "dipt" to kep him in Albany over S. in lay, promising to see him forwarded to l.is friends on Monday.

' The Little Slioe. j It is vr nderful what triding t'nitigs pro-j duce an influence on the heart and mind. A seed borne on the wings of the wind drops at las; into suitable soil, and, by and by, grows up into a stately tree. A little spring leaps out of the side of a hill, and the child, who stoops to drink of it, can span its breadth; but it flows on down to the valley, and winds along the plain, ami gathers strength and volume in its cour.-e, till it rolls a stately river, bearing the commerce of cities in the ships that navigate its w.Vers. And so it is with hitman life. A look, a word, has changed the whole career of many an immortal being. The writer once lived opposite a beer shop , called the "Fox and Geese," and, with pained attention, often watched the doi.igs, and, alts! Leard the sayings of the cus'omers. One winter even ug a shoemaker's boy carr.o with an assortment of children's shoes, and the landlady of the "Eux tiud Geese," who had a most marvelous shrill voice, bc- ' gan e dlitig to a little, dirty slave of ft nuregitl to bring ' Addiehead" as she proi, I'lnce 1 Adelaide to li ive her new shoes tried m.

At last a pair fitted, and the spoiled pet was lifted up triumphantly in her mother's arms. "Here, do look at her! The d arling lias let me get a pits- ct the Very best ones on!

Ah, there he is, hit eyes tive'cd for a mcmer.t looking at the chil l showing tier shoes; with a start, he rouses himself and rushes out. "What, going o soon.'" bawls out the landlady. P.;!! pulls his hat down over his eyes with one hand, clutches his old jacket tight over his chest, and answers the question with n sor: of gruttt. 1! is outside these is his wife and little .me.

.Ir. Brii;lit oi Hie IIoue of Lords. The Q iaker Commoner, John Bright, is awakeniiio- a r'orious agitation in England,

for popular rights, in opposition to clan interests, bv Lis public addresses in the leading cities and towns of the kingdom. He has received so many invitations to address public trtf e ings, on the question of Parliamentary Reform, that he has been obliged to announce the necessity of husbanding his strength for ihe approacidng session of Parliament, when his reform measure will be introduced. In his recent speech in Edinburgh, he did not spare the aristocracy; and the following passage in his speech has incensed the ire of the aristocrat:'.: organs: There ate, he said, in the House of Lords, about 430 lVers; of them, 30 are Peers called spiritual (loud cheers,) and there are upwards of I JO that for the sake of distinction, I must say are not in the least spmttial. (Loud cheers.) I shoul 1 like any man to answer this tpies ion: Dot s the II use of Lords represent he land and the tenantry upon the Ian I? or does it otily represent the personal interests of the individuals uf which that House is composed? If it be admit. ed that not bv ejection, but originally by iiomiTiatinn of the Crown, and by hereditary descent from that nomination, the Lords represent throughout territorial interests iu the Upper House, then it is competent for any person to a Ivoca'.e such a state of thii gs, and it may long be tolerated in this country. But il any man says that these 400 Peers represent the personal or individual interests o dy of those 400 Peers and their families, then he places the existence of that li t ;-. up -n a most precarious foundation, for ho says : "Here arc 1 o men, chosen no", even by the Crown, hut sitting by right of de-cent; and there are .'iO.uOO.UOO of ihe peet le of the Unite 1 King lout, yet these lt). itidivi !ua!s dare set t heiiiseives against the will of the. '' hi. Od.i'OO, rejecting year after yetr, as they have J .lie, beneficent .and excellent measures, pis.se I bv tho representatives of the people. (LjuI cheers). The .vnerabie, monarchy of England, be it remembcre !. pr" ends to no such power. The House of Commons can control the Crown, because it ein control th-- supplies. ("Hear, hear" and lo ad cheers.) Toe Crown has scarcely 10-i-cte 1 a measure passed by both H -us ts for the las? loO years; but the Commons hive no such control over tho Home ofl'eers. You cannot stop the supplies as against them. (Loud cheers). Tin- V:tI il ittiit Ci'ie t':m.il. Wi- sa-d in an article, written a few days ago, that as ihe Trustees of the W. i: E.

The above fig ires show, that for the future it can hardly be expected our bondholders will take any further interest in this Canal, unless they are compelled to under the original contract entered" between them and the Nate, in what is known as the Batler bill, ol course they w.ll cot. They will advance nothing to keep up our Canal. As long as it would pay, their interest was to keep control of it. bnt when it was a source of expense to them, their interest immediately stopped. We suppose there is about as much human nature in a bondholder as ia an vbodv else. If the Canal is to be kept in rep'air, it will have to be dene by the State, by individuals. corporations, or associations. Nothing further can be expected from those who have hud the control o! it for the last several vears. The questions are. What ought the Legil- ; ture to do, or what, onghl to be done? Wabut Ezprett,
