GRATITuDE.--An Ertract-I remember once that Philadelphia merchant many years ago, whose wealth and importance were only equalled by the goodness of his neart ana the purity of his principles, rescued what was worse in those days, the hands of the Sheriff. Tho son of the mechanic was young, but old enough to know his fathers beneiactor. Many years after this, the mer- chant fell into difficulties, and at the most trying moment, when all his former friends mad forsaken him, the mechanics son, now comparatively wealthy, stepped forward to ms relief. "I am much indebted to you," said the reduced merchant. !" By no means" sald the other, "I have only paid tho debt which my iather contracted at the corner of Chesnut street thirty years ago. when was just old enough to know the cause of my poor mothers iears." The merchant grasped his hand and burst Into flood of tears.
