AND BALTIMORE DAILY CLIPPER.VOL ME. XIII.?No. 148

BTOUY OF A SISTER'S LOVE.

A few days ago, 1 was at tho State Prison atSing Sing, N. Y., where I heard the facts I amabout to relate. They furnish as touching aninstance of devotion as I have lately met, andthey show us that in tho humblest walks, even

in the atmosphere of vice and crime, there mayflourish some of the purest passions, that oughtto win our charities, and make us respect thepoor.

A young man in Nova Scotia came to thocity of Now York and fell among thiaves.?110 became the companion of criminals, per-haps a criminal himself. Certainly ho was ar-

rested on a charge of crime, was tried, convict-ed, and sent to tho prison at Sing Sing.

His sister in Nova Scotia, heard of the fateof her brother, and resolved to securo his de-liverance from prison. She was only a servantgirl, and her scanty purse was barely sufficientto defray bur expenses through the long jour-ney to the city. When she reached NewYork, she learned that the only way to get herbrother out of prison was by pardon from theGovernor. She went to service in the city andworked faithfully till she had earned moneyenough to defray her expenses to Albany, andwas soon there, a stranger, a young, unprotect-ed woman, with no other recommendation thanthat of having a brother in the Siato Prison.She inquired the way to the house of the Gov-ernor, obtained an audience, and then with allthe eloquence of love so pent in her own bosom,she made known lior request. The Governorsaid that he must have some reason for grant-ing tho pardon, or he could not interfere!

"But my brother is an innocent man," saidthe girl, who had never for a moment indulgedthe thought that lie could have been guilty ofcrime. Tho Governor wanted somethingmore than her word for it, and giving her thosmall comfoitof words of sympathy and kind-ness, sent her away to devise ways and means

to prove the innocence of her imprisoned bio-ther.

She returned to New York, and finding aplate, again resumed her domestic service, andindefatigably labored, as time and opportunityallowed, to accomplish what was now thegroat end of her life. And what will not per-severance and lovo achieve! Hopeless as theattempt might appear, she found the men whocomposed tho jury that convicted her brother,and obtained lire names of every one of themto a petition setting forth mitigating circum-stances in his case, and asking the interpositionof executive clemency in Ins behalf. Withthis petition tho devoted sister Lurried to Al-bany, and full of hope, she presented it to theGovernor. Ho was moved by the intensity ofher purpose, and tho ardent strength of her af-fection. But ho still hesitated.

"Why," said she, "you must pardon my bro-ther?l shall never leave you until you do. Ishall stay just hero and pray forever, and ifyou wish mo to go away you must pardon him,and 1 will bloss you, and God will bless you thelongest day you live." Her prayers and tears

so far prevailed as to extort a promise that hewould make immediate inquiries into lire case,and if they wero satisfactory lie would trans-

mit the pardon by a certain day, which lienamed, through tho mail, to tire prison at SingSing.

Once more tho noble-hearted girl returns toher work, and waits for the slow weeks to wear

away. But they flew fastor when the thoughtthat the tiino ofher brother's liberty drew near.

This was to be the reward of her toil, and suf-fering.

On the vory day which the Governor hadnamed, tho constant sister makes lrer appear-ance at the door of the prison at Sing Sing andinforms the keeper that she had coma for herbrother, who on that day was to be pardonedby tho Governor. She was told that no par-don had boon received. Her heart sank withinher. Was she, after all to be disappointed??"But tire Governor said ho would send it bythe post, and it would be here to-day. He willkeep liis promise, I know he will." Tho keep-er was struck with her appearance and deeplyinterested in her manner, lie told her to come

in and he would send to tho post olfiec. Whilethe messenger was gone slio walked the room

in great agitation, trembling between hope andfoar; and when tho word was brought that therewas no pardon, alio protested that it wouldconic, and she should not leave the prison un-

til it did. The kind-hearted keeper took herto his housoand permitted lior to stay therewaiting tho arrival of the Governor's letter.?The next day it came? the. pardon came ?andshe embraced her brother FREE, and freed byhis sister's taicrifico and love.

Tho pardon was accompanied by a letterfrom lire Governor to the prisoner, urging himin strong and impressive language to conducthimself hereafter in a manner worthy of thenoble sister of whom he bad reason to be proud,and to whose self-denying and persevering ef-forts he was indebted for bis liberty. The bro-ther and sister, rejoicing in their re-union andthe boon of freedom so toilfully won, took theirway from the prison-house, and are doubtlessnow in some retirement,earning an honest live-lihood.

1 dwell with peculiar interest upon this in-stance of sisterly attachment. It teaches me

not to look only to tho lefinod and elevated cir-cles of humanity, for examples of pure andconstant love. It tells me the poor and ne-

glected havofcearts, and that thoy are as keenlyalive to pleasure and pain, as those in the more

highly favored walks of life. Mothers Maga-zine.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET. A New Yorkletter of Wednesday evening says:

The panic in the slock market continues andincreases, with a considerable decline upon tireprices of yesterday. Tire Banks, in prepara-tion for their annual report to the Legislature,are drawing in their discounts largely, andwithin a few days have withdrawn stock loansto the amount of §3,000,000. That the pre-sent panic is purely fictitious, is evident fromthe fact tlmt soino of the best stocks suffermost?for instance, Norwich and Worcester,and Long Island, undoubted and largely-pay-ing stocks, have fallen more than any others.To-day Reading declined 1-2; Kentucky 6s '.;Harlem 1-2; Norwich and Worcester 5; whileCanton is 1 higher and Erie Railroad 2.

EXPLODED. We learn from tire New Yorkpapers that the German Opera company of thatcity has exploded. The proceeds of the firstweek's performance wore §1,122.75, and theexpense3§l,l72.7s. All hands, however, werepaid for their eervices, except the printers!

Dr. CIIRISTIK presents the following icmarkablecase to the public, believing it a duty on Ins part,andalso at the earnt&i lequest of the parties concerned.

BALTIMORK, NOV. 7, 1813.On last 1 hursday I was attacked with violent pains

in the small of tlit: hack and jaiuis, being,as I suppose,inflammatory rheumatism. On Friday my pains increased so thai I wan obliged to go to bed, and on Fri-day night I was in such extreme agony, that the in-mates of the house thought 1 must die from the ex-treme agony of my pains. Seeing in the newspapersthe woudcrful account ofDr. Christie Galvanic KingsI sent a friend of mine (JMIIII Webster) to mjuiretheprice of one of them, and procure one ifpossible. Myfriend proceeded to Mr. Nance's store, and was theretold that the price of the genuine rings was at) centsa piece, and the magnetic lluid $1 per bottle. Nowthis was more money thin I had,and my friend wasabout retiring, when Mr. Ifante called him back andenquired about my case. Alter bearing it he often dto give himthe rings and ftuui to take to his lib nd togive them a fair trial In fifteen minutes after I hadplaced the rings on my fingers and had used the fluid,I experienced the greatest relief, and in three da>s Iwru enabled to leave my bud and walkabout mv room.I have now sufiieiently recovered to walk to Mr. IPs !store and state my case; a!-o to Squire Hchaefbi's!ofliue.

TAP ORIIANS.Loss of virile potter is the penalty most frequently

i paid by those who give a loose rein or license to theirj passions. Young pr isons are too apt to commit *x-

cesses fioni noi being atvare of the dreadful effectsthat may ensue. Although inipoteney rucurs from

| slriciure, depositee in the urine, gravel, and from imuieteus other causes, yet the abuse of Hie soxual organs, by excessive tcncry or self-pollution; parncularly the latter is the more ftequi nt cause of it. Now

j who that understands the subject willptetend lodeny! that the power of piocretiling the species is lost soon

er by those who practice the solitary vice Minis by the| prudent. Resides, by premature impotence the di-

gestive functions are deranged, and the physical and; mental post ers weakened by a ton frequi nt and too

I great excitement of the genital organs. Parents amiI guardians are often misled, with respect to the| causes or sources of disi as : illtheir sons aw,l wards.| How often do they escribe to oiher causes the wast

ing of the frame, idiotcy, madness, palpitation of theheart, indigi stion, derangement of the nervous sys-

itern, cough am! symtoms, indicating consumption,i when the truth is that they have been caused by in! diiiging in a pernicious, though alluring practise, Ues-I tractive to both mind and body.

Gov. THOMAS' DIVORCE CASE. The caseolMrs. C. S. Thomas vs. Francis Thomas, beingan application of the former for a divorce, wastaken up before the superior Court at Rich-mond, Va., on Monday last- The counsel forthe defence offered to fileseveral pleas against

the legalty of the proceeding, but they wereoverruled by the court. One of tho pleas was

a declaration of the defendant, "to withdrawfrom tho further defence of the cause beforethis tribunal, and alleging that ho had institut-ed a suit against tho plaintiff in one of theCourts of Maryland; that he had, in tho billtherein filed, invited a full investigation ol thomerits of the case and that he waß not ready to

proceed with his defence here.'' As the court

refused to file the plea, a jury was empannellcd,and the Hon. Rcvctdy Johnson, of Md., exam-

ined as a witness. The Richmond Compilersays:

Ilis testimony, we are happy to say, for thotriumphant vindication of the plaintiff, provedthat tho defendant had endeavored throughhi in to produce a reconciliation; that he hadconfessed the entire delusion under which hehad labored, and had promised every repara-tion in his power. The distinguished witness,after a full acquaintance with all the statements

and proofs of the defendant, expressed the en-

tire conviction of the falsity of his charges, andof the perfect innocence ofJhe plaintiff.

The case was continued on Wednesday?nocounsel appeared in behalf of Ex-GovernorThomas. The Enquirer says:

"The witnesses examined in behalf of Mrs.Thomas, were Mrs. Gen. Carrington, Mrs.Cocks of Cumberland, Mr. Richard Grason ofMaryland, I)r. Wm. Tyler of Frederick city,Md., Mr. Robert Taylor of Lexington, Va.,and Messrs. J. R. Anderson and Patton ef thiscity. After a few remarks from the counsel,Messrs. Lyons and Taylor, the statement ofMrs. Thomas, on which she grounds her appli-cation to tho Legislature lor a divorce, wassubmitted to tho jury. Without retiring fromthe box, and with the evidently manifestedsympathy of the largo assemblage of specta-tors present, they returned a sealed verdict af-firming the truth of the statement of Mis.Thomas, and sustaining tho charges made byher against her husband, Francis Thomas.?Tho record of the proceedings was then order-ed to bo certified, with a view to their present-ation to the Legislature?and the Court ad-journed."

NIAGARA SUSPENSION BRIDGE. A writer ina Rochester paper, Mr. Fisk, contradicts thoreport that tho British Board of Ordinance

j have reported against tho project of a Bridgoacross the Niagara river. He says the subject

! was ably discussed about JO years ago, and at

first objections were made by tho Board of Ord-

nance, but those objections were aftorwardswithdrawn and a charter granted with rrreaterpowers than are now asked for. There is no

doubt now, it is stated, that a charter will beobtained in Canada, and the bridge constructedwithin a year. Iftho bridge is considered dan-gerous in a military viow, that danger can beremoved by breaking it down in an hour. Itis supposed the undertaking can be accomplish-ed for the sum of §200,000.

COPPER MINES IN UPPER CANADA. Someof the British officers in Canada have latelymade an important discovery of some of therichest copper mines in the world. This dis-covery has created great excitement. Some ofthe officeis have sailed from New York for Li-verpool, carrying with them some specimens

broken oil' from a cliff, on the banks?the lat-ter is six feet long, four broad, and six inchesthick.
