Those who have never lost a child are unable to understand how greet a void the death of one li-,tle one can make.

It is emphatically the shadow of death which freezes the parent's heart.— .Small as is an infant'stomb it sometimes iscapacious enough to hold the brightest hopes and dearest joys ol a whole family circle.—r The little is often the bright focus where alt the rnys of gladness in a household centre, and from which they are reflected again over happy hearts and when this central light Is eclipsed great darkness falls upon all. Oh! how many there must bo in heaven gathered up from al!climes, even from heathen shores, who have died so young as to retain no memory of earth ot.d to whom that world of glory seems as their native land, whose souls were washed and regenerated so early that no stain Qtlhe world was ever visible upon the -L, -..iroai&lsjsB

From tbe New York Dntchm&a. Adveatones of an Orphan Boy. A TALE OF LOVE AND POLITICS. .IS? T0t»6,vr -J ^1

Towards tfie latter part of the aammer ^f 1840, a lad of piwpoeseasln^ appearance re be a if to uated at the fool of ^enaca Lake, near the centre of this State, lie had traveled from the western part of Ohio, -where T»w father a widower, Hod died from tme of those malignant fevers, ao conooion in newly eettted countries, while overseeing the cultivation of a large Iract of land, in order to regain a fortune lost during the disastrous specu** lattori^ of! 036.

Bemg an only chHd, left among strangers, after the death of hia. father, .George Wentworth resolved to ka»e Ohio and remove to the State of New York, for the purpose of trying his fortunes in any manner that chance might offer. lie had passed through? the several towns and villages on his routo, without meeting anything to attract his attention, till reaching G———. This fine place with its lovely lake and pleasant scenery struck his iancy, io he*determined th

obtain employment, if possible, and make it if possible, his future home. While walking along the principal street of the place—a shady avenue overlooking the lake, and on which are located severa fine churches and other public buildingshe saw a large crowd of people assembled around a newly erected liberty pole, in front of one of the principal hotels. On approachng the spot he tound that it was a political ^meeting held for the purpose of raising the jpole and making party speeches.

Our hero forced his way into the crowd as they were raising the 'Stars and [Stripes,' with the names of their favorite candidates, to the top of the flag-staff.^ The flag had scarcely reached half way, the enthusiasm being at its height, when the cord twisted add Caught in the little wheel at the ,*topt,_ They pulled and tried every, way but were unable to raise or lower the flag, a single inch. The excitement and cheering ceased, and all eyes were raised to the half masted flag. A portion of the opposition party, who were grouped together a little in ihe rear of the main ^body, began to jeer and joke about the apparently bad 0men to the evident discomfiture of their opponents^1* l4w»fert«* Mi**

At length JudgeS———, editor and publisher of the Journal,, then a candidate for Congress, offered fifty dol-lars-to any person who would clirrtb the staff and draw the cord through the wheel. The utmost silence reigned for several minutes, but no ,one advanced. to„makfejh« daring trial, a,. ..^j 1 (, i.i: t" 'Will nobody volunteer?' shouted the Judge strongly excited, as a peal ol laughter went up from the ranks of the opposition.

Their ahuokle had scarcely died away however, before George, with hia cap and shoe* off, stepped before the Judge and with a confident look exclaimed—

Yes, sir, Ml climb it?' fctfW W&Qt 'You my lad are you strong enough?'^ 'Oh yes, sir I am used to climbing.' ,4. 'Then go ahead my little Spartan.' said (he Judge, at the same time giving him an encourageing pat on the shoujder.

Steadily, hand over hand, his feet clutching the pole in a manner that proved him to be an expert climber. George made his way to the top-of the staff, which wa^ so slender that it swayed to and Iro with his weight Nothing daunted, he" wound his legs right and left around the pole and with bis right hand untwisted the cord. Shotting,- fearlesRly to those below to hoist, aw^ he duna on till the flag had fairly readied the Hop'and then slowly descfended.

The checfrs that how rent this Itf* wtfr# terrific,every body, opposition and. all join? tng in with one univereal shout.

'Oedrge* Wehtworth. sfrt I am an 'ofplfMr' and have^jUat arrived here in search of employment,' replied our hero his bright eyes glistened with a tear. •Well,you shall live with me,' exclaimed the Judge 'I'll take caro of you for the fature.'

The following mornings George received notice to receive the Judge in his li-

George you have conducted yourself in an honorable and worthy manne'r, performing every duty cheerfully and neglecting none. You are now of age, and capable of doing business lor yourself. I have placed-.five thousand dollars in the bank, at your disposal you can use this sum as you may think proper, or let it remain on interest, and take charge of my ofiioe under a salary of fifteen hundred dollars a year in either case you muat leave my house for the present^ What do you say to my proposition?'

George was completely bewildeted, and stammered fortb a request to be allowed a few houri for donsideration. This being granted, he retirfd to his room and .threw himself on the bed in a paroxysm of griefCould Hie Judge have guessed what he in iS el ad a el a re to W a right tiad he to his benefactor's daughter and fortune? None! He would smother his feelings, and earn an honorable living by his own exertions.

Various were tlie rumors set afloat by the scandal mongers of G——, as the cause of young Wentwotth'a leaving his ]atron's mansion, but their inuendoes were unheeded. George now devoted himself wholy to business and study, ^ilis brew wore a more thoughtfu 1 expression, and his cheeks grew a shade paler. The Judge acted towards him in a straightforward, frank mannets vet never addressed him in the kind,: fatherly tones, as had been his wont before the incident,that occurred on the lake. Il he chauced to.meet Ida in his Walks, a friendly glance and nod were all that passed still hi felt that his looks betrayed him, for the warm blood gushed from his loving heart and timed his cheeks with the tell-tale blush and he cherished tho pleasing thought that her look was beaming with love and hope.
