' BEUTIFUL EXTRACT. - "
Oh, if there is one law above the rest,
Written in Wisdom iftliereu A word "
That 1 would trace as with a pen of lire
J'pon tta unsullied tempor cfaehild ' ;
If there is anything that keeps the niiir.l
Ojiea lo angel visits, and repels
The ministry ofill 'tis human loii!
Gd has made nothing worthy of coii'cmpt.
The smallest pebble in the well of truth
Has its peculiar meanings, and will stand
When man's best monuments wear fast away.
The law of Heaven is love and though ils name
lias been usurped by passion, and prolan'd
To ils unholy uses through all lime,
Still, the cteral principle is pure ;
And in tl?sc deep affections that wc fetl
Omnipotent within us, can we see
The Iuvish measure in which love i? giv'n.
And in the yearning tenderness of a child,.
For every bird that sineS above its head ; -And
every creature feeding on the hills,
And every tree and flower, and running brook, '
We sec how every thing was made to love,
Aid how they err, who in a world like this,
Find any thing to hato but human pride.
A Tocchixg Ixcidest. The New Orleans
Picayune says that a fsw days since a gentle
man of that city taw in the streets a lovely lit
tle girl of tender jearsstanding on the banquette
bathed in tears. The good man approached
her, and laking her by the hand, iiKjuircil the
cause of her anguish. The dvar little creature
continued to t.ob bitterly, until at length she
exclaimed: "My father and mother have been
taken to Heaven, and I am left au orphan."'
There were three or moie ersuns by at this
time, and the feelingly eloquent winds of the
engaging little one brmiglit tears from even
eve. The worthy gentleman who first address
ed her sjid a few kyid words wiih a view of re
litrving hf r. Bud then aid- 'T will be to you
father, and my wife (and no man" has; a better
oik1) will greet you wilh a mother's smiles."
lie then took her by the hand and carried her to
his residence. This is an achievement, on the
field of merry, of which any good man should
be imiu 1.
AX IxCIPrST AT THE BATTI.n Or MoSTtKEY.
V. hlk Col. Dav is. wiih his command. Was
hotly engaged wiih the enemy, ex posed to their
direct lite, a man in a long grey Mirtout sud
denly rode up, and dismounting, placed him
self in the middle of the street. There, in fare
of the enemy, amidst the thickest of their fire,
he cooly drew from a case, suspended about his
person, a 'spy-glass, with which, having ad
justed it to a proper focus, he proceeded to re
connoitre the Mexican batte r y. Having satis
fied himself as to the information lie Knight,
he shut up the glass, returned it to its case, and,
approaching Col. Davis, said to him: 'Sir, tlie
enemy has but I wo pieces, and by making a
detour to the right you can take them in flank.'
'And who the devil are you!' 'I, sir, am Ma
jor Mansfield, of the Corps of Engineers.' 'All
right! come on boys!" responded the Col. The
battery was soon carried.
hi n Fetcr of Cortona was engaged on a
picture lor tlic royal palate of IVlli, Ferdi
nand II. particularly admired the representa
tion of a weeping child. "Ilusyour Majesty,"
said the painter, "a mind to see hew easy it is
lo make this very child laugh?'' And suiting
the action to the word the artist merely de
pressed the corner of the lips and the inner ex
tremity of the eyebrows, when the little urchin
seemed in danger of bursting its sides w ith im
moderate laughter, who a moment before scorn
ed breaking his heart with weeping. If this is
true in the world of art, it is eminently true in
the world of living men. Slight, very slight
are the causes that make or break the happiness
of life. The touch of a brush can dim heaven
with a cloud or brighten the prospect in the
far horizon.
