Tho melancholy fate of young Aldama, who iumncd from the roof of a building in New , York on Mouday, and killed himself has given rise to much inquiry rcspeclmg mo case. .... A New York paper furnishes the fol lowing facts, as a history of the causes, which are interestingly romantic. Senor Gonzalvo Aldama was the son of a very wealthy citizen of Havana, whoso an nual income amounts to flvo or six hundred thousand dollars. Some time previous to his arrival in New York there had existed a strong attachment between him aiid a young lady iu Havana, whoso great beauty, excel lence of disposition, and accomplishments, rnade the most profound impression upon young Aldama, but whose humble circum stances, compared with his princely prospects, proved a great obstacle to their union. His father would not hear of it, took every means to prevent their interviews, and even an interchange of letters between them, and, at last, liuditig all unavailing, banished the son from tho paternal roof, and compelled him to leave the country. Young Aldama, with sorrowful heart and dejected spirits em barked for New York, where he arrived some time 6ir.ee. The bustle, the amusements, tho novelty of (he scene had a temj6i'aiy ef fect upon him for the better. He went to the theatre, frequented the ball room, was constantly in attendance at the Italian Opera, where the delectablo strains of Borgese and Porco for a while drew his dejected thoughts from the stern realities of his position. But all these things ceased to havo power over h;m there was something moro powerful weighing down his spirits and from tint he could not emerge. Ilo travelled, attended church regularly, resorted to every moans that ingenuity could devise and money pro cure, but all to no purpose. The city had lost all its charms for him, its crowded walks were solitude in his eyes life was a burthen to him, and absent from Havana and from her in whom his hopes were centered, it was no longer endurable. Could he but get permission from his father to return, he would sacrifice all the enjoy ments of the world. For a while this thought engaged him constantly. At fust it was to .:,! l.JI.r Mfnnvillr hut liv insensible 1119 llflliu ijwiuij uituiii.-j -j degrees appeared more practicable; it at least was a solitary ray of hope, and he clung to it with devotion, until at last he made an effort to return by writing to his father for his Dermission. . Dunns the interval scarce lyany thing else occupied him, and he was observed to bo remarkably silent and ab stracted. The answer came: it was unfa vorable". Not only did his father repeat his objections against all nitercoujso witn tne young lady, but told him plainly that until every idea of their intimacy wa3 banished trom nia nnno, ins uauisiiun-iu uuu .uumu. friends, and country, must continue. This was too much for Gonzalvo Aldanu lie knew the w:rst. The warm and passion- tttc, and impetuous temperament of the Spaniard could no longer suffer; and he therefore resolved to end his troubles. The remainder of the sad chapter is brief. A leap from the roof of his dwelling, in a fit of temporary insanity, clo3en h'.s mortal career, and put a period to tne pangs causoci to mm by . tho mistaken solicitude and culpable harshness of his father iu preventing a union that might have made his son a happy man through life. . Nativkw.- Judge. McLean has written a letter to tho celebrating committee of Boston Natives, -who commemorated tho birth of Washington at Faneuil Hall.

We are astonished that Judge Mc Lean 'should have thrown himself into the haiids of such a desperate faction as the na tives', the dregs of (ho whig cauldron. That makes one less whig candidate for the Pre sidency for 1848! Ohio Statesman. Value of the Newspaper. Somebody a very sensible somebody speaks as fellows: "A child beginning to read becomes delighted with a newspaper becauso he reads of names and things that aro very familiar, and he will make a pro gress accordingly. A newspaper in one year says Mr. Weeks, is worth a quarter's schooling to a child, and every father must consider that substantial information is con nected with this advancement. Tho mother of the family being ono of its heads, and having a more immediate charge of children, ought to bo intelligent, of mind, and pure of language, and always cheerful and circum spect. As instructor of her children she should herself be instructed. A mind ac cupied becomes fortified against the ills of life, and is braced for anv emergency. Children amused by reading or study, are of couiso, considerate ana more easily go verned." Noal's Saturday Gazette says: The diffe rence between the nooole who read the newspapers diid people who do not) is strik ing. Jt may almost be seen in their faces, and it is at least made evident in two minutes ;of conversation. Wo havo indeed been al ways of opinion, that nowspapers of the proper character should be regularly placed in the hands of children, as soon as they are able to read. It will soon be to them a plea sure as well as an advantage, and its benefi cial effects in awakening the mind, would be felt throughout life. We might even, if wo had leisure just now, prove that to road the journal is an improver of beauty; an actual cosmetic, giving intelligence to the eye, expansion to tho brow, and vivacity to the expression. The aspect often indicates the soul, and if tho soul be dark and unen lightened, tho imprint will bo marked on the visacre. How often do we see children of tho most bright and intellectual look, become gradually heavy, dull and contracted in their expression, a3 they advanco towards maturity. And why is this? for want of prop'rjr mental culture. Tho best part of their nature perisiics for lack of exercise. They do not read tho newspaper. People may laugh perhaps; but if this be a jest, there is not a little truth in it. An exposure of the Managers in the iiiiqnatosts projects before the Le gislature! Mr. Van Vorlics, (whin) in his place in the Senate to-day, exposed tho way the ini quitous projects of his party are got up.- He said the first, he ever beard ot striking two townships from Athens county, and put- tniir them on to Morgan county, was in tne streets of Columbus last November on his arrival here ! It seems, then, that this divi ding of counties is tho concoction of scqpe graces in this city, and man from distant parts of tho Slate aro made tho puppets, to do the dirty work; while the poop!:, 61V Ibsir farms and at their firesides, aro mado the foot balls of these despots turned in and turned out of counties, knowing nothing of the act till after it is over. Who is sate? Who Can trust a momeut to constitutional protection, if such infamy is not at once put down? Wo;;d has just reached tho people of the danger they aro in, and hundreds of re monstrances aro pouring in, to let them alone to let them remain where they are; but doaf to the proanings of the people deaf i to justice and honor, tho bill is pushed on without notice being given, with the Repre sentatives from tho counties of both Athoii3 and Morgan opposing it, who should at least bo presumed to know as much about the in terests of Athens and Morgan, as men living in tho most distant pans of the Slate! What ha3 our Slate cotno to? To what depths of p.irly madness are wo sunk? lo what revo liilionary measures havo the people got to submit, until the ballot boxes give them re lief? We wish the whelo people could have heard the indignant voices of the democratic Senators, many of whom sat indignantly si lent when the votes were taken, both to-day and yesterday, and bado tho Netoes of des potism and villainy, dcaancc! Seldom did such deep and indignant eloquence ever fill from the lips ot any one, as fell from Mr D'saey on yesterday and to-day but Mr. D.'s feeling warmth was but tho commence ment of a storm of popular vengeance that will sweep over the Slate and whirl the cor ruption nom power mat now disgraces our otherwise beautiful State.
