They propose raising by small sub- serip'ions—none to exceed five dollars—ihe sum of twenty thousand dollars, to be paid to Pow ers, the Sculptor, for a statue of Mr. Cr.xv, to be placed in a suitable building in one o f the public squares of the city. Probably since the death ol the Father of his Country there has never at any time been soir .w s > pervading and so pro found as that which tnltows the discovery that Mr. C l a y isdefeated. The intelligent and right minded regard him with an afleciion which no other public man ever inspired, and which is on- jy surpassed by that devotion to country which induced the desiie o f his election to the Presi dency.

She seldom s p a k e ; yet she im p arled F a r more than language could ; So bird-like, bright, and tender h earted— So natural and good! H er a ir, her look, her rest, her actions Were voice enough for h e r ; W hat needs a tongue, when those attractions Our inmost hearts could s tir ? She seldom talked; but uninvited, Would cheer us with a song; And oft her hands our ears delighted, Sweeping the keys a lo n g ; And oft, when converse round would languish, A sk’d or unasked, she read Some tale of gladness or o f anguish, And so o u r evenings sped. She seldom sp a k e ; but she would listen, W ith all the signs o f s o u l; Her cheek Would change, her eye would glisten ; The sigh, the smile upstole. Who did not understand and love her, With m eaning thus o’erfraught? Though silent as the sky above her, Like that she kindled thought. Little she spake ; but dear attentions Frotn her would ceaseless rise— She check'd our wants by kind preventions— She hashed the children’s cries. Aud, twining, she would give her mother A long a n d loving k iss: The same to father, .sisier, brother, All round, nor one would miss. She seldom s p a k e ; she speaks no longer— She sleeps beneath yon rose ; ’Tis well for us that ties no stronger Awaken memory’s woes. For ah ! our hearts would sure be broken, Already drained of tears, If frequent tones, by her outspoken, Still lingered in our ears.

Deal gently, ihou, whose hand hath won The young bird from the nest away, W h ere careless ’neath a vernal sun, She gaily carrolled day by day ; The haunt is lone—-the heart must grieve, From whence her timid wing doth soar, The pensive list, at hush of eve, Y et hear b er gushing song no more. Deal gently with her—ihou art dear, Beyond what v estal lips have told; And like a lam p from fountain clear, She turns confiding fo thy Fold; She, round thy sweet domestic bower, The wreaths of changeless love shall twine, W atch for thy step a t vesper hour, And blend her holiest prayer with thine. Deal g ently, thou, when far aw ay, ’Mid stranger scenes her foot shall rove, N o r let thy tender cares decay ; The soul o f woman lives on lo v e ; And should’st thou, wondering, m a rk a tear Unconscious from her eyelid break, Be pitilul, and soothe the fear The m an’s strong heart can ne’er partake. A mother yields her gem to thee, On thy true breast to sparkle rare— She places ’neath thy household tree The idol of her fondest c a r e ; And by thy trust to be forgiven When judgm ent wakes in terror wild, By all the treasured hopes of heaven, Deal gently with the widow’s child. T H E PO C K E T BIBLE ; OR, “ HIS LOVING RlNDRESS CHANGES NOT.” BY CHARLES A. GOODRICH. I was standing a t the counter of a bookstore, some y ears since, when a lady entered, and in quired for pocket bibles. I knew her well. A few y ears before she had married a respectable young merchant’ who, although possessed but of Ijltle, if any capital himself, had been started in busines by a gentleman of wealth, wjih every prospect of success. H e was active, honest and enterprising; and although he married early, and after commencing business for himself— perhaps too early—tbe lady whom hehadselec* ted as his companion, was worthy of his choice. She had more ambition, some of her fi lends thought, than comported with their circum stances ; and although she contrived to repress it, in consideration that her husband’s income for the present was small, it was apparent that her spirit was aspiring, and that she was look ing forward with some impatience to the time when she should be the mistress o f a fine house, with furniture corresponding. A friend of her?, who was inarrie 4 about the sam e time, h«id &t once entered upon the enjoyment of the objects of ambition, and had even a carriage at her command. Quite possibly Matilda Grant cher ished the secret hope that she might one day be able to visit that friend in a sim ilar establish ment of h er own. The dispensations of God, however, not nnfre- quently intervene to thwart our plans, and de feat o u r hopes ot' worldly good. He bas higher views re.-peeiing us than we ourselves entertain —the elevation of o u r souls, and those of our friends, to a crown o f glory in bis own blessed mansions—and a preparation thereof is necessary, which requires sorrow here in order to joy here after- Through much tribulation m ust we ea ter into the kingdom o f God. F o r a few years Mr. G rant went on _ well in business. H is purchases weie made with judg ment, and his goods were credited lo those who, he thought, would be able to pay. B u t unfor tunately and unforeseen, bis principal creditors failed, and in a single day Charles G rant was a bankrupt. A t the time of this sad reverse be was ill of a fever. It was difficult to conceal it from him, but the news J iad a still more unhappy efleet upon him than was anticipated ; and Irom that hour he continued to decline, and in a few weeks he was carried to his long home. It was a grievous blow to his wife, wiih whom her friends m o st sincerely sympathized, and to whom they tendered for herself and two children —a son and a daughter—all the k ind assistance which iheir circumstances allowed. On an investigation o f M r. G rant’s affairs, bis failure proved even worse than was feared ; and although the gentleman who had advanced tbe capital- was quite liberal in the settlem ent of the concern, the widow and her children had but a few hundred dollars, it was thought, and for the most o f that she was indebted to the gener osity of her husband’s friend. This result, added to the loss of a 4 ond and truly estimable man, made the shock still more terrible. She felt the calamity keenly, and the more so, as she had no near relatives at hand to condole with her, and was ignorant qf the divine consolations o f religion. But there was mercy in her cup of sorrow. The spirit of God came in to heal the troubled spirit, and to sane tify those trials to her soul, And a t length she was enabled to bow in humble and quiet sub mission to the will ol God, and betake herself to the support and education o f her lovely chil dren, now h r r solace and delight. At the time I saw her in the bookstore she was in pursuit o f a pocket hible for her son. named Charles, a fter his father. The purchase was soon made It was a beauiiful edition— not expensive, but just such as a fond and re ligious mother would wish to present to a son whom she loved, and which she hoped would prove a lam p unto his feet. A farther circum stance about thisbible I knew jn after years.— On presenting it she turned the a lhntion of the happy little fellow to a blank page in ihe begm- ing, on whiph, in a beqmifq] wreaih, she had inscribed her o w n n a m e , a n d u n d e r u t h e words, “ To my son,” followed by the appropriate and touching lines— ‘ A parent’s blessing on her son Goes wiih this holy thing ; The love that would retain the one Must to the other cling. Remember ’tis no idle toy, A mother’s gift—Remember, boy.” And still a little below were printed, in small but beautiful capitals, words which a moiher’s faith might well appropriate: “ His lo v i n g k i n d n e s s c h a n g e s n o t ” At the age of seventeen, Chat les Grant was a stout, strong, active jmuih. B e was more than ordinanty ambitious, bui as his ambition had not full scope, he was restless, and I sometimes thought, unhappy. H a d his mother, al this critical era of his life, been able 10 find some employment suited to h is active and ambitious genius, it would have been fortunate indeed ; but she knew o f none; ami besides, she was alone, and ielt that she could not dispense with his company. About this time a young sailor, by the name of Thornton, belonging lo the neighbourhood, arrived home from a voyage. ( h a r les natural ly fell in his wav, nnd was delighted with the stray of his wonderful adventures. Hu listened long and intently. His age and cir< uinsin nces combined to excite in his ambitious bosom the desiie of sim ilar exciting.,-scenes. W ithout designing any especial wrong, young Thornton at length proposed to Charles to accompany him on his next voyage, which he should commence in a few weeks. For a time he hesitated, or rather declined—his mother and Alice would never consent, and to leave them by stealth was more than he felt willing to do. Thornton d,d not u rge him, as it afterwards appeared, but Charles was liimself strongly inclined lo go, while the young sailor was quite willing to have a IViend and companion so bright and enter prising as Charles Grant. In an'evil hour the latter decided lo go without ihe knowledge of his mother. On the night appointed for tlieir departure Charles ro*e from his bed when all was si ill, andsoltly feeling hts way lo the door, opened il and escaped, it was a beautiful n i g h t , and a s he proceeded round the corner of IhB house lo get a small bundle of clothes which he had con cealed the day before, his h eart beat with un usual violence, and for a few moments a faint ness came over him al ihe thought of leaving a mother and Jsister, the only objects pn earth whom he had e v e r truly loved. H e slopped for a moment, as if m editating a belter resolution, and ihen proceeded to the gate, which he open ed and went out. H ere he again paused-^turm ed—looked—lingered—hesitated—and even put his hand again on the latchet, and half resolved to creep once more, to his little bed room. But at that moment the low call of Thornton, at some distance, reached his e ar—he had lingered longer than he was aware, and now the moment arrived when he m ust go if a t all. With a sort o f desperation o f feeling he hastened aw ay, the tears trinkling down his cheeks as he bade adieu to the humble cottage which contained all he loved on e arth. H is bundle was still under his arm , a n d in that bundle> I am glad to say, Was a moiher’s gift”—the pocket bible.— Charles felt he could not go without that, and perhaps he felt that the discovery that he had takeu it might serve somewhat to assuage tt mother’s sorrow'. Before morning the young sailors rvere a long Way lowatd the seaport whence they expec ted to sail, and a couple of days brought them quite there. The ship, it happened, w a s read)-, and Charles h aving been arcepted on the recom mendation o’ Thornton, took up his line of duty before the mast. Shortly after, the ship weigh ed anchor, and stretched forth on a distani voy age. I must leave my readers to imagine, if thej: are able, the surprise ahd even conslernaiion of M rs. Grant and Alice, the morning following Charles’ departore, a t not findine n m in the house, nor about the premises. What counl it mean?—what errand could have called him ft w ay?—at what hour did he leave?—whal ac cident eould have befallen him ? Search was made for him by ihe increasingly anxious and terrified mother and sisjer ip r an hour and more, before they ventured to make known their solicitude to their neighbors. My own residence was not far distan t; ahd before 1 had finished my breakfast, a messenger in haste made known the truly distressing situation of Mrs G rant a n d Alice. I hastened to the house —other friehds at ilu distant hour Wel*e ’here— inquiries were instituted— messengers wpre despatched arotmd the town, but not lhe slight est tidings could be obtained, ahd eveh con jecture was baffled. At length however, Mrs Grant m a d e the discovery that his belter suit was gone, and there was a transient g l e a m of joy on her face as she announced ihat bis p»tk et Bible was also not in his chest. Some ila vs passed, long days, and long and gloomy nighis, before a n y satisfactory intelligence was receiv ed, and then the amount ol that intelligence was in a short but affectionate letter from Charles himself, just one the eve of sailing for the Pacific ocean. It ran thus : M v P e a r M o t h e r — Canyrai wifi yon forgive me the step I have-taken without yra'r knowl edge or consent ? My heart has smote me eve ry hour since I left you. I am a t . and on board the ship -■ which sails in an hour for the Pacific ocean. Fondest, best of mothers, do not grieve ; I will one day return to bless and comfort you and my d ear A lire. I must do something for you and her, Iiiss her for me.— Mother, I can Write ho more, only I hope that I shall have your prayers, f have got my pocket Bible, and shall keep it next to my heart.— Farew ell. Y o u r affectionate son. P ( S. I have somewhere read, whal la m sure will prove true in my own rase : * W here’er I rove—whatever realms 1 see. My heart, untrayell’d, fondly turns to thee.” By some m eans the letter did not reach the postoffice as soon as it should have done, and •the uncertainty bore heavily on the heart ofthe mother and sister. The postmaster on its a rri val kindly sent it to m e ; and hoping that it contained tidings of the lost child, I vein tired to break the seal. The truth sorrowful as it was —was a great relief, and was felt to be so by Mrs. Grant and Alice. Yet, for a season—and who can marvel ?—their hearts were filled with sadness whic-h scarcely admitted alleviation—it was a dark and mysterious f i evidence, and when friends called In, as they often did, to min gle their tears with the weeping, and to admin ister consolation, the most they could do was to say “ his ways a rein the sea, and his judgm ents past finding out,” But time does som ething—religion does more. By degrees these sorrowful tones were able to pray, and as the Christian poet says, Pp.iyer makes the darkest cloud withdraw.’ So it did for therp. They did not, indeed, re cover their wonted cheerfulness, b ut they were calm and subdued. No m u rm u r escaped the m o ther's lips, and even Alice seemed to have imhihed the snirit of a holv resignation. “ Fath- imbibed the spirit o f a holy resignation, “ Fath er, thy will be done.” But there were days of keen and bitter an- guish, and in those nights when the storm swept its a n g ry blast across their humble dwellin and rocked their bed, it was impossible for a mother's heart not to tremble for her sailor boy, far off on the stormy ocean, and perhaps suffer ing the perils of the billowy tempest. Bui even at snch times she wasenabied to com mil h erself a n d her wandering child to ihe care of a coven ant keeping.God—uttering the language of-holy confidence, “ H is faithfulness r< as the everlast ing mountains.” “ Though lie slay me, yet will I trust in him.” Four years elapsed, and nothing was heard of Charles Grar.t. Sometime during the second year o f his absence a rum or reached us that a ship supposed lo be the which sailed fro m , and on board o f which Charles was supposed ro be, was b urned at sea, and ihat but two or three only were saved, and among them. was a young man named Gram . But the m- mor though not contradicted, was not confirm ed, a n d another period of u ncertainty and anxi ety fell to the lo* o f the long-sincken and heart- saddened mother and sister of the absent boy. At length the friends of Airs. Grant perceived a visible change in her health. The indications of ibat too fatal m alady—consumption—wefe too apparent to be mistaken. Its approach., in deed was slow and insiduous, ajul for a time was k ept a t bay by assidious attention o f p u r gri llage physician; but medical prescription at length tost its power, and she became a t first confined to the house—then to het room—au finally to her bed. . . . , ITer I often visited her, as .did other fnen - room w as no longer tlicabodeofgloom and sor row She had f o r j o m e months toen making j Ind tliD'j|heher feeble taberracle was shaken, a n d wa“fibely to be dissolved through yeqrs of anxietv' and affliction, yet her faith seemed lo a c q u i r e m o r e and more strength, and to fasten with a firmer hold upon tbe divine promises. One dav. as I sat conversing with her she al ( ludt-d to the faithfulness of Gud, and expressed i her unwavering confidence in him. She said it had been her desire to acquiesce in the Divine will, and she hoped that she shoujd be able to do so, whatever it might be in relation tq h erself r her absent son. But, continued she, I have prayed long and fervently that I may once more see him—see him a true penhem—and I c a n not relinquish the belief that God will hear ami answer. I was about to say something which might tend to sooihe her. in case her hopes were not realized, as I m u st confess I saw little present reason to expect they would be, when she stop ped me. and observed, < You must think me pre sum ptuous, b u t my faith must enjoy its hold on the divine prom ises. H a s not God s a i d ,‘Call upon me in the day of trouble, and I will answer thee, and thou shalt glorify m e !’ I have call ed—yes, I have called by day and by night, and God has seemed to help me.

I must soon fail ; this h eart will soon oease beating, and ihe narrow house be my resting place, but I still have confidence in the faithfulness o f my heav enly father. What though I see no immediate prospect of the return of my poor boy ? 1 be lieve that I shall vet press thai poor child to my bosom. Y ears since, I wrote in a pocket Bible I gave h im ,«H is loving kindness changes n o t;’ and do you think it will fail now ?'1 I confess I admired ihe steady faith of the mother—a faith strong in the l.o r d a n d in t h e power o f his m ight; and vet it seemed scarcely possible that her hopes should be realised. At length my faith faltered, for u Was apparent that her hour ol departure was not far distant That night two o r tfiree female friends, fearful of her failure before morning, offered to stay wuh ihe m o thernf Alice. This the latter cheer fully assented to, though she had decided not to leave her mother. The necessary arrange ments forthe night were made, and at an early hour all was silent around the humble cottage. It was a glorious night abroad—clear, soft, mild—just such a night as a saini might well hoose in which to take us departure aqtl soar to the temple above. The poet m ixt have had some such qighi in his vision when lie penned those beautilul lines— “ T h e m o o n a w a k e s an d from h e r m a id e n ra - e , Shedding her cloudy locks, looks merely lorih, And, with her virgin walks in the hea\cns— W alks nighil) there, conversing as she walks Ol purity, and holiness, and God.” It was just such a night, and Alice had risen from her r e a l ; and to hide her emotions, as her dear parent breathed more heavily, had gone to the window, the curtain of which she diew a- side, and Was standing leaning her arm on the sash. In ihe distance, just beyond the gate, she descried, as she ihoughi, the figure of a man who seemed id be approaching For the mo ment she started back, but again looked, and his band was on the latch. The gate was opened with great cautjo)i, and the stranger approach ed slowly towards lhe house Presently a geq- tle knock was heard at the kitchen door It was impossible for Alice to summon Courage to at- teiul io the stranger hersell; bm she whi-pered to ihe nurse, who, upon unlocking ihe door, in quired the reason tor so late and unreasonable an intrusion. “ Does Airs Gram still reside here?” inquir ed the stranger in a kind of earnest lone. “ S he does.” replied the nurse; “ bm she is dangerously ill, and we fear cannot hvc many hours ; you cannot see her.” ‘•Gracious heavens !” exclaimed the.stranger; and so audibly were the words pronounced ihat lire sound fell on the ears of Alice, and her heart beat with strong and distressing emotions. “ J mast see het,” continued the stranger; do not deny me, madam, quick—quick .'''and he genily pushed open the door, siill held by lhe surprised and even terrified nurse. Alice listened to the sounds without being able to decide their im p o rt; but at length, fear ing that her mother mighi be distuibed, she stole softly oui of ;he room for lhe purpose of ascertaining what the stranger wan'Oil. “ Alice! Miss Alice,” said the nurse, as she approached. But before she had finished what she was a t tempting to say, the stranger inquired Wiih a countenance wild wiih emotion, “ Is this Alice G ram ?1’ and the next moment he swooned and fell on the floor. “ Miss Alice,” exclaimed the agitated nurse “ whnt does all this m e a n ? —w h o c a u iliis be? —what shall we do ?” Alice herself stood amazed : but as the light fell upon the features of the apparently lifeless stranger, a thought flashed across hpr mind, and the following moment she was nearly falling beside him, “ N u rse,” she said softly hui quickly. “ hand me some water.” Xhi'- she applied liberally to the temples of the stranger, w h o slowly recov ered his consciousness, and at length sal up — He looked around, and presently fastened his eyes most intently and inquiringly on the pale and motionless Alice, “ Y es, y e s !” he exclaimed, it is s h e ; it is—it is my own beloved Alice!” ft Charles—C h a rles—my brother!” uttered Alice, as she fell upon his bosom. “ O heaven be praised! Charles, is it—is it you ? O moth er—moiher!” The sound of voices reached the dying moih er, and she inquired, “ Alice, my child, What— what did I hear, Alice?” Alice, scarcely able to stand, hastened to her bedside, and taking her mother’s hand, already cold wiih death, spoke in accents tremulous— for the whole frame was agitated—tremulous, btlt kind. “ Wfhai did I hear Alice?” the mother softly whispered, “ t thought he bad come. Did I dream. Alice?” “ Moiher, itear mother.” said A ire, piltling her face dose to lhe cold face o f her dying pa rent. and scarcelv able to draw a breath, “ who did you think had come?” “ Why, Charles ; it seemed as it he had come. But 1 dreamed—did I, Alice ?” “ Mo’hef,” said Alice, “ eottld vou see him ?\ could yon sustain it, if you could see him ?” “ Surely, child ; why. I long to see him ; nnd I did think I should see him pnee more before I died.” At this moment the door soil'y opChcd, ami Charles approached, c a u lirarly—inquiringly. “ Alotber,” said Alice, “ here,—can you look up? do you know who this is?” “ Who is it, Alice—who is it ?” inquired the half wild bqi Slid conscious mother. “ Mother,” softly whispered Charles, as lie kneeled down and kissed her cheek, “ moiher, my dear moiher, “ O will yon—can you forgive vour long lost, but penitent, brbkett hearted child ?” “ Charles, my dear charles. is U indeed you ?” said the now dying mother, ai the same time e n deavoring to put tier wan and feeble a n n around his neck. “ AI v d ear boy, yon have come ; yes, I said you would dome—y-m have; vcs. I cm now praise God, One qnesimrt. Charles, and I die in peace—my boy a penirenl?” “ Mother,” said Charles, his tears nparly cho king his utterance, “ that Bible and a moiher prayers have saved me. I have come, and in season, to ask forgiveness, ‘Father, I have sin ned against heaven, qnd in ihy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son.’ Mother, my dear mother, and will you forgive me also V “ Enough, enough,” said the d eparting moth e r ; “ yes it is enough her countenance beam ing as it were, wiih seraphic joy. “ I am nearly through ; but go. my spn— go. m y dear Alice, and publish it to the mothers of the land, what I have found trtle—and will con tinue true a s long as praying mothers exist “ His loving kindness changes nol.” For a few moments following it was thought she had ceased to breathe ; but she revived suf ficiently to press once more, gently, the hands of Chailcs and Alice, and then she was heard singing, in a faint and scarcely audible tone, those beautiful lines which she had often ex pressed a wish that she might have occasion to sing— “ Soon shall I pass ihe gloomy vale, Soon all m y m p r lat pow e r s m i n t f a i l ; Oi may my last expiring breath, H i s lo v in g k in d n e s s sin g in d e a i h .” The prayer was answered. “ His loving kind- ness\ were the last sounds which were heard.— They ceased here only to be resumed, and to be sung by tbe glorified and triumphant saint be fore the throne of God P e c u l i a r i t i e s o f L i t e r a r y M e n .
