A POEM BY DANIEL WEBSTER. - Mm. Wkbstis, at more than one period of bia Ufa. dalltad'with the mnsea. In 1829 he had the miafor tone in tote a son, three years of age, named Charlea, represented to bare poseed a singular attractiveCof annd and character, even a taat carry age. Oa that occasion Mr. Webstar inclosed the following Susion in a letter te bia wife : My eon, thoa wast my heart's delight. Thy morn of life waa gay and cheery; ' That morn has rasbed to sudden night, ' ' ' Thy father's house is sad and dreary.

" It is difficult to define exactly what we mean by a fault. There is a popular impression, which is nearly Correct, that it is a modified sin ; that it is somethiag irregular, but that it lacks in magnitude or , intent something of that which goes to constitute a positive sin. In many instances faults are simply irregularities in execution, or mere inattentions, nega tions, and almost always have this quality of being incidental, not intentional, not purposed, or the result of passion. There are a great many who suppose that there is a merit in falta. I think they do not discriminate very wisely. It is true that perfect people are the most disagreeable and intolerable people in the world those so-called perfect men that in order not to speak wrong never speak at all, and in order not to do wrong do nothing'; those cold, precise, inelastic hard,' smooth, polished people, that are. regarded aa perfect by themselves. It is trna'that you hunger aad thirst for some roughness, ,and tou wish they wouia area: out somenow ana seem to be human. There is an impression derived from excess in that direction, that faults are signs of a fertile nature aad if it be ao, haw fertile mm natures are! They art thought to be like tte roogh seac of rock, that are a sign of atreagta Ilk,, ths bark on a wholaaoma treelike arls and "knots on 'the oak, and peopie say that they would net wanka maa

JUST AND FEAR NOT! LET ALL, THE 1 !"!.' to have fewer fault, Decause tbere is kind of robtutnesa (hat they giTe; Now. there mar , be certain aorta of faults of which this ia true--faults of manner, fault of jrregalarity ; but thia oaght not to blind aa to the moral character and to the effect of faolta that are seated n conscience ; that involve principle ; that touch, the question of benevolence and eelflshness; that have in them certain relations to the waste of the supply of life ; that run their.roots even deeper, and touch the very aeatof honor, and, one may say, of character and salvation. J., ,, , V . One of the reasons why faults are ao frequent, and so little considered, mast be of course a general imperfection of human nature. : But the unconsciousness of men as ,to the details of their life while they are pursuing weighty matters this also is a reason of the faults of which men are the subjects. . They are unconscious of them largerly, because there is very . little true friendship that takes upon itself the offices of true friendship. This is that .which makes the household so invaluable. The father and mother love their children so much that they can tell them their faults ; at any rate, till their children, get so' old that they know more than their parents or think they do. There is a fidelity possible in the household without risking friendship, without risking love. And there is another kind of discipline" besides 'this of love that in the school and that in publie affairs. Where boys and young men are thrown together the inter-comparison, the angry taunt, very soon makes men aware of those social faults which are apt to be disclosed in the social circle. But there is very littie friendship aside from that of the family which teaches a man after he gets out of the school and out of the family what his faults are. How many persons do you know, each of you, to whom you would go and ask : "Will you tell me honestly what you think to be my principal faults T that is, persons that you think have sagacioua judgement enough to know, and persons that are so kind that you can afford to have them know There stands a command in . the word of God, "Confess your faults one to anoth er;" but, for the most part, men are selfish, and the' christian duties of life are so little inculcated and practiced in social relations that one dose not dare to confess his faults to his neighbor. He ys : "If I should it would be putting a club in his hand, and by and by he would strike me with it. He would get angry with me and the facts would come out. Or, there would be a competition in business and he would use them to my disadvantage. It is not safe." And the judgement is right. There are very few people that it is safe to trust. There are very few men whose judgement " of your faults is one that it would be safe for you to trust. And so, from these various infirmities bf men'-we gal w up with clustering faults. Many of them reach to the very vital points of character. T And ' no maoi ! speaks Tto us of them. An Incident of Sherman's Entry in Sa vannah. A lady in Savannah wirting a descrip tion of the entry of Sherman into that city, relates the following interesting in cident : Tired v at last of watching, we were seated together in our parlor bare and rude enough after four j-ears of destitution when a foiid ring at the bell start led us once more into terror. It could be no one but our enemy. What did he want ? Our .silver : perhaps, the little gold we had left to keep the wolf from the door ; or perhaps my father! My lips blanched as they formed, but did not dare to utter the word. But our af fright was tenfold increased when Gen. Sherman was announced. If he had sent we should have feared ; but coming himself, what was the limit to our ap prehensions ? The issue must be met, and my father rose, .nobly and firmly facing whatever was to come, as the door opened and the enemy's great soldier, in full uniform entered. Without pausing for ordinary formalities, he turned to my father, grasped and shook him warmly by the hand . asked kindly after his health," and said he was deligted to see him. Then suddenly referring to old memories, he slapped him heartily on the 'back and said :-' What can I do for you, my old friend ?" I could have thrown my arms around his neck in spite of his disregard of etiquette, and I believe that a tear came into my eyes and rolled down my cheek. I know I felt too choked to speak when my father presented me to him. When I saw that pleasant face, although I could read a fixed devotion to duty, I . could see in it a plain4 refutation of all accusation of unnecessary cruelty. From that day to thia, Sherman has had no wanner friend thsj,r3eei4hongtrIajn..v ?

MOVING SCENE. The local of an exchange gets off the following : About the first of May nearly every body moves except the few who are so fortunate as to own their house nuia as a facetious writer remarks, "thereby be ing at any time liable to lose it for taxes,' and the following 'moving incident will be read with delight, both by those who 'moved, are 'moving,' or are going to move. We moved. And it was the movingest sight we ever saw. ; Our readers ought to have seen the scene. . Our folks commenced pulling up and tearing down the traps a week sgo. Most of the plunder' was thrown into a heap and lumped off into loads, with a total disregard of ordinary rules. The paregoric and hive syrup vials were packed in our ne hat one of Knight & Kelley's latest and best. The castor bottles were placed in our new boots, it being so handy to carry them by the loops. The stopper came out of the one containing tomato catsup and the top of the mustard concern was broken off. That is the best seasoned pair of boots we ever had. The other family insisted on coming into the house before we got out And so the things got mixed up some. But we got all that belonged to us, at least. The cartman swore because the cook stove was so heavy, and one said 'd d if he'd have it if we offered it to him.' Didn't offer it to him, but offered both of them a drink out of a quarler barrel of ale, nearly full, standing in the kitch en. They took it very kindly, but it made em thirstv all the forenoon. Guess the spigot must have got out of the barrel on the road, for we couldn t squeeze half a glass out last night. Finally got moved. Thought we'd have our supper before we tackled the bedstead and back room stove. Better-half, with patch of soot on her nose, said supper was ready. She was mad because when she asked us to bring home a keg of soft soap, we proposed an amendment substituting a keg of powder and a slow match. We hate soft soap have to use so much of it every day in noticing men and things. Sat down at the table and took a cup of tea that was handed to us. Thought it tasted strangely, and pros pected the bottom of the cup. Found the brimstone ends of three broken matches. Don't drink any more tea. Came near breaking one of our teeth . . . .i i . . j i on a carpel lacs in me ouuer, sou thought we'd had supper enough. Commenced putting up bedsteads. It s fun when you like it. But people don't like it, mostly. None of the 'blasted rails would fit Got the wrong ones into the wrong post, and couldn't screw them up. . Marked them all with a pencil before we took them down, and thought we d know just how they went together agian; but somebody wiped the marks all out And there we were. , - Better half suggested that one at our time of life ought to have more patience and gave it as her opinion that we 'could not swear thebedsteads together. Found we couldn't. Finally got 'em np four of 'em and commenced putting the cords on. Cords broke, and we had to tie them together. , The knots wouldn't slip around the pegs, and we couldn't draw the rope tight. More remarks from the children's mother on the subject of profanity. Didn't pay any attention to her, and thus succeeded in getting through with the job. j Then went down and 'harnessd' the stove. Two lengths and one elbow of the pipe missing. Finally found the elbow in the bureau drawer, and the two lengths rolled up in the parlor carpet Got a hatchet and a stick of wood and commenced pounding the pipe together. Knocked a chunk out of one of our knuckles and got tbe elbow oa wrong end np. Had to take it all apart and change it Commenced pounding again, but couldn't make it jibe. ; Pounded more. i .1 r The more we pounded the more it would not fit, and thought we'd give It up. , Expressed oar opinions in relr.tioa to store pipes ia general and this one ia particular, and made some allusions to' the original inventor of this kind of furniture, t .

MAY 30, 18G7. Went to the corner grocery and got zwei lager, felt refreshed and resumed the attack on the pipe. Found out that what ailed us before was that we hadn't pounded it enough. Remedied the defect, and the job waa done. Stove smoked beautifully. Got wife to tie raga around three of oar fingers and one thumb, and thought we'd sit down and have a smoke. Found meerschaum after a while, and discovered amber mouth-piece broken. Got the tobacco can, but on aacertaining that the salt celler had been emptied into it made up our mind we wouldn't smoke. We concluded we'd better go to bed, and started to pick our way through the mass of things piled up and scattered around. Stumbled over the long rockers of a chair and barked our shin. Returned no answer to an interrogatory as to why we didn't 'break our neck ; repeated 'Now I lay me, and terned in. Having a strong constitution, which enables us to bear a good deal of sleep, and always paying strict attention to our sleeping, didn't known anything till morninsr. Went down stairs and found wife get ting breakfast, with tears in her eyes. Told us she 'was deceived in the house' if she'd 'known what it was, she would never had moved into it and that she'd never be able to 'settle in it This settled us. and declining to par take of the frugal morning meal which had been provided we remembered the supper we took our departure, promising to call in during the early part of the ensuing week, when the things had been 'put to rights.' And we mean to go. Davis, J- Minor Botts and Greeley. Thurlow Weed, in the New York Ad vertiser, draws the following picture of the scene at Richmond on the occasion of the release of Jeff. Davis. It is tint ed with the personal antipathy of the editor to Mr. Greely, but there is truth in it. Jeff. Davis ought to have been tried with Wirtz. He is the guilty one in the four years bloody tragedy which caused the Nation's sacrifice of so much blood and treasure. If it were not for the billions ot debt and the regular calls of the tax collector, the rebellion might be considered "a lunar eclipse," which ha3 passed away and nobody guilty of the bloodshed ; no one guilty of the blame. The Advertiser says : "Jefferson Davis, the Tribune an nounces, is a Tree man. inn is made, by the conspicuous part played by a lead ing Northern Radical, the occasion of an ovation. The crowd raise their hats to the long persecuted but now ransomed martyr. The people cheered and waived their handkerchiefs as the released patriot passed through the streets to his hotel, where innumerable bunches of flowers, lent beauty and fragrance to his appartment "Among the 'distinguished gentlemen, immediately surrounding Jefferson Davis was Horace Greeley and Harry Gilmore, 'the land pirate' who captured a defense less railroad train between Baltimore and Philadelphia. "The whole scene was appropriately crowned by "hisses' for John Minor Botts, who, like Davis, had suffered long imprisonment, but for that occasion, on the wrong side. Botts was a Union man, and was imprisoned by Davis, and appearing in such company and on such an occasion, was of course hissed. "Jefferson Davis, a 'freeman, reap pears more than ransomed for the Government ia arraigned for cruelty in keeping him so long in prison and he goes forth with his 'crown of martyrdom,' to excite sympathy and homage. "The Government and people are staga w m m m goring nnaer a i ear mi ioaa oi aeoc. The wounds of thousands of Union soldiers still remain unhealed. Widows, mothers, sisters and orphans, still wear sables. The people whom Jefferson Davis beguiled into rebellion are starving, while the rebel' chief, through the presistent agitation of a radical chief, not only goes free, but is invested with the honors of martyrdom ! Hia visit to Canada through our large cities, will be made the object of "Copperheads' re joicings, and ere long we shall hear the Governmet execrated for its injustice and cruelty toward the master spirit of rebellion." There is a child in Montgomery coun ty, Va., which waa christened "Andrew-Jackson-Gordon-Jamea-Buchanaa-Raise The Flag-And-FireThe-Caanon Dob bynns." -,- .- There is another in Charlotte county. named 'Mary-Ann-Rebecca-Molly-Polly - Todd-Yankee-Doodle-Yahoo-Bonaparte Kelso." : At New Albany the Mayer is paid a salary of Sl,40fr per annnm."'

1 NO. 14U tssa. Rev, Zsb Twitchsll. , iX , Everybody who ever lived in Vermont has heard of Zeb TwitcheU, one of the most noted preachers of the Methodist persuasion that ever travelled a circuit in that State. He was a powerful preacher, and his labors were signally blessed ; but he waa eccentric Many of his jokes are related by his admirers in this day. ; . Zeb was going to a conference at oae' time, and, to divide the expenses he put his horse to a brother clergyman's wagon, and 6o journeyed. It so happened ' that his companion was a very sober and sedate man, and could no more appreciate a good joke than TwitcheU could refrain from perpetrating one. tt will readily be supposed that those which he found means to crack were by no means few or common. At last, as they drew near the end of their journey, TwitcheU said, as they drove leisurely past a public house : " The last time I staid in that houae I slept with the landlord's wife." . "What!" demanded his companion, almost overcome with horror. . ' j U Zeb repeated the assertion. An audible groan succeeded, but nothing further was said until their arrival at their destination. ! It was the custom then, and may be now, for aught we know, at the proper time to review the characters of all the clergymen belonging to the conference, each one being called by name, and the interrogation being made if any one knew of any dereliction from doty in the brother for the past year. The clerk at once called : ' Zebedee TwitcheU." I There was no answer. Another call met with no better success, when one of the brethern remarked ethat "Zebedee TwitcheU was present, but neglected to answer." "Why do you not answer when your name is called, Brother TwitcheU ? asked the Bishop. " I shall when it is called," was the reply. " Has it not been called twice already?" "Not once yet." " How do you speak your name ?" " Z-e-b Zeb," was the prompt reply. " Call Zeb TwitcheU," waa the order to the clerk. ; Brother TwitcheU responded, and the usual question was propounded as to his walk and conversation during the past year. With much apparent reluctance, and with the air of one who is obliged to perform a disagreeable duty, his traveling companion arose and said that he had to perform the painful task of laying before the conference that Brother TwitcheU bad been guilty of the crime of sleeping with an other man's wife. All raised their heads in holy horror that a brother so well disposed and so universally respected should have fallen. " What reason have you for saying so, brother ?" was asked by the Bishop. " He told me himself that he slept with the wife of the landlord," waa the answer. The matter began to look grave, and the conference looked stUl graver. " What have you to aay to the charge, Brother TwitcheU ?" " That it is true V " You told him you slept with the wife of the landlord at ?" " I did, but I believe I forgot to tell him that, at the time, I kept the house myself." , . , , V , Zeb TwitcheU passed that year. , , Old John Brown and Jeff. Davis. John Brown, of Kansas, headed , what was at uie time termed, a rebellion against tbe State of Virginia. It was openly admitted on aU sides to be in the interests of freedom. little damage arose from it Yet it wiU be remembered that a Virginia court refused bail for him.' He received a summary and very unfair trial, and after most barbarous treatment, was executed. Jeffersori Davis was the official head of another rebellion au attempt to overthrow the Constitution and Government of United States. We need not refer to the terrible consequences it inflicted upon all sections of the country. And yet he is admitted to bail in a nominal sum, which his securities will not grumble to pay in case he is in Europe when he is wanted next November. Wherein wae John Brown more of a criminal than JetTerson Davis ; and why should the one be hanged and the other set at liberty T ' Kcsbia is rapidly extending her territorial limits Over Asia, and is qaietly but firmly absorbing many of the hfEherto independent provinces of the central portions of that continent Last year a considerable portion of the territory was formally aaaexed - to sis under the nameofthe province i of ; Tarkeystaa....'- -;yrf:0 - -xli '-. - weaaaaBB r ...... --r-.i.H i Why is Echo like a vUitmg acquaint-? ance ?

The frog does not inveigh against Providence for sending bad weather ; he never growls at the east wind, never eotaplaina at the heat he sings the same song at all seasons. Providing this, leaves to man the undivided honor of being the only croaker. The horse goes uncomplaining in his course, not croaking a bit about hia fate; the Lion, though compelled to wait for his dinner till live o'clock, never croaks about it but wags his tail and waits ; the robin sings the same Joyous song in an east wind that he ' doea ia a westerly one ; all with an instinctive content at the dealings of Providence. The flowers bloom happily aad never fire off their pistils in petulance or anger; the trees heed not the fair or the fsul, hat keep on whether or no ; and the humble grass though universally regarded as green, keeps right on growing, true to the allegiance It owes the sun, irrespective of Uttle outside influences. 1 ' What's the use of croaking? Does it make one's hair white or black ? Is sn east wind shorn of a single shiver by it? Does the rain cease to ehiU because of it? Does the sun relax its melting beams because we don't like it ? No. Then why should we croak ? Ah, why ? Sound Ssnsb About Advbrtisino. We find the following array of good sense about advertising in the Carding -ton Republican : A young man just commencing business, and wishing to advertise sought the counsel of a retired merchant as to tbe beat mode of procedure, when the following conversation ensued: "When is the best time to advertise." "When do you put your sign up? "Why I don't take it down ; it is up all the time. ) ; "That is just what yon want to do in advertising do to all the time never stop and you are sure to win.' "But why advertise during duU times?' 1 "Because that is just the time to make new customers, snd those you wish to make such have more time to read and will notice and read your advertisements, while in busy times they might not look at them a passing glance, in consequence of being busy themselves. , "But the large majority or business men do not advertise during dull, seasons. - "That ia Juat the reason why I advocate it in such seasons. Yon have fewer advertisements to con tend with, and I verily believe that I made more new cus tomers from well gotten up and conspi- - . aj " e 'm cious advertisements anting auu seasons, telling the public what I was going to have when the busy season' commenced, than at any other time.. , . The Kiowas have broken their treaties with Gen. Hancock, and declared war to tbe knife. . To the Indian war no end is now probable but that which comes after the utter defeat of the Sioux, the Cheyennes, and the Kiowas. :, For thia we are sorry; the blood that is to be shed in this inglorious struggle of the . United States with a , fsw barbaric tribes might have been saved by a little good sense at Washington ; but, as usual, stupidity and swindling have their results in war. Negotiations now seem useless, aad as a fight is inevitable, we hope Gen. Hancock will . make abort work of it It is not our soldiers, but our civil officers who are disgraced by this unnecessary war. The story of the Fort Buford massacre is, we see, officially denied by Gen. Sherman. CoL Rankin and garriaost are alive at Fort Buford, having been slaughtered only t Chicago. TV .
