KNOWLEDGE.

We would recommend the following ex- tract from Hasces' Lectures on Reading, fo every young person who sees this.
 The high value of mental cultivation is another motive for giving attention to read ing. What is it that mainly distinguishes man from brutei Knowledge. What makes the vast difference there is between savage and civilized nations? Knowledge. What forms the principal difference be- tween men as they exist in the same soci- ety? Knowledge. What raised Franklin from the humble station of printers boys to the highest honors in this country? Knowledge. What toek Sherman from his shoe makers bench, gave him seat in Congress, and thereby made his voice heard among tho wisest and best of his conpeersl Knowledge. What raised Si- mon from the weaver's loom, to place a. nong the first mathematicians and Her. schel, from being poor boy in the army, to a station among the first astronomers Knowledge. Knowledge is power. It is the philosophers stone the true alchymy that turns every thing that it touches into gold. It is the sccptrc that gives us our dominion over nature tho key that un- locks the store-house of creation, and O. penssto us the treasure of the universe.
 And suppose you that her last victory has been won--the utmost limits of her do- minion reached9 Nay, my friends. she has but commenced her march. Her most splendid triumphs are yet future. What new honors she has yet sp bestow on her followers; into whatnew fields ofconquest and glory she will lead them--no one can tell. Her voice to all is to rally round her standard, and go forward in her victories, and share the honor of her achievements. None are excluded from this privilege: her rewards are profered to all and all though in different measures. may share Fl her dis tinctions, her hopes and blessings.

BEAUTIFUL EXTRACT.

7He Parsee, the JeD and tie Christian. By Dr. F. 4. Krummacker.--A Jew entered Parsee temple, and beheld the sacred fire. What ! said he to the priest, do ye worship the fire? Not the fire, an- swered the priest it is to us an emblem of the sun, and of his genial heat. Do ye then worship the sun as your god :? asked the Jew. Know ye not this luminary also, is but work of that Almighty Creator :?
 We know it, replied the priest; but the uncultiyated man requires sensible sign, in order to form conception of the Most High. And is not the sun the incompre- hensible source of light, an image of that invisible Being, who blesses and preserves all things? -
 The Israelite thereupon rejoined-Do your people, then, distinguish the type from the original? They call the sun their god, and descending from this to the baser ob- ject, they kneel before an earthly flame 1! Ye amuse the outward and blind the in- ward eye, and while ye hold to them the earthly ye withdraw from them the heaven ly light Thou shalt not make unto thee an image or any likeness.
 How then do you designate the Supreme Being2 asked the Parsee.
 We call him Jehovah Adonia, that is, tho Lord who is, who was, and who will be, answered the Jew.
 Your appellation is grand and sublime, answered the Parsee, but it is awful too!
 A Christian then drew nigh and said- aye call him Father.
 The Pagan and the Jew looked at each other and said-Here is at once an image and reality it is a word of the heart, said they.
 Therefore they raised their eyes to heaven, and said with reverence and love- Our F0thsr! And they took each other by the hand, and all three called one an- other brothers!

THE SCATTERED HOUSEHOLD.

TpF SCATTERED HOUSEHOLD.
 "Hov ste sOOrlfs aspect choRsss." The family group is gathered,
 And all are happy thers; The cheerful smile and glance pass round, . For life with them is fair: a,- -4 A faIi unbroken household! Itis a pleasant sight; w The mothers smile is sweeter then
 The father's glance more bright. There is another gathering-
 But one is wanting there: 9 The youth who sat beside his sire
 Comes not to 6ll his chair. The graveyard bears another stone
 The missed one sleeps beneath; The cheerful smile doth yet pass round- as But thou art felt, o Death! Again there is gathering;
 But where iS she whose smile Was wont to make our young hearts glad,
 Our fathers care beguile? In vain we list mothers voice
 'Tis stiAed in the tomb! .. The happy smile is seen no more
 Where mrth was, now is gloom. Once more there is gathering:
 Once more an empty space Proclaims that death has been at work
 To fill brothers place. His grave is in distant isle, Made by strangers hand; Oh! hard it is to die away - ge,s From one's own native land! That group may never gather more
 Around that kindred hearth TT is broken up-what Death has left .. - Are scattered o'er the earth And where that humble mansion stood, There now is not a stone To mark the spot, and tell of those
 Who to their homes have gone.

Ihe iarl0.-I'he tariff question is a very simple one, when divested of all extraneous trappings, ,and tiiereisscarce- y q man who cannot understand it, if it be presented to him in its naked and essential character. Let us take far mer, or mechanic, or any other work ing man, who has not had more than three quarters schooling in his life, and ask him these questions, what would be his answer.
 Is it better for you to giveffteen cents a pound for coffee, than ten?
 Is it better for you to give ten cents a pound for sugar, than seyen9
 Is it better for you to give ten dollars for a suit of clothes, than five?
 Is it better for you to give $S7 ton for iron, than $50?
 Would it be right to make you pay two dollars pound for tea in order to encourage Henry Pratt to raise tea in his beautiful hot-house on the Scs1uyl- kill?
 Would 1t be right to compel you to pay double price for your sunday hat, made of foreign furs, in order to pro- tect the hunters ofracoons and beavers in Georgia, in their domestic industry?
 Now, upon negative answer to all these questions, by ninety-nine men out of hundred, one might most certainly calculate. But only mystify the same question under q little flourish, about .American system, protecting pollcy,"I sshome market, nssbalance oftrade,n &c. and hitch them on, like a bob-tail to a kite, to the name of some prominent politician, and common sense flies out of the window, and every thick headed fellow lifts up his hands, and cries out, n nanamazementofpetrifactionssG all Great s s n;;;ssss: ie;;;sssssi:s: of tho EPhesians.

 s'No public officer perhaps has ever received greater marks of attention and hospitality than the hero of Valparaiso has experienced in this city and it's yi- einity. On arriving about ten days ago, at the American Hotel, he receiv. cd prompt invitation from distin- guished literary gentlemen, to make his house, while herenaineda in New ork, bis home. Preparations had also been made bya gallant officer at Brooklyn 10 make him his guest until the Gomnae- dore sailed. He likewise received a pressing invitation from highly re- spectable lady, with an accomplished family to do her the honor to take up his residence at her house while here. The visits to hIm have been hourly, and dai- ly; he has dined out every day, and fre- quently breakfasted also from home, so has his company been sought. These are tributes which come from the heart, and are the genuine offspring of that patriotic feeling which can never be mistaken
