At the opening of the county court for this county, uh yesterday, we had pfesented to us one of the most heart-rending sights we ever beheld. A man, apparently in the last stage of maciated--debilitated and ghastly, was extended on a Wretehed pallet, with two small children lying on the same bed-both sickly, ghastly and feeble. While the court was considering what relief should be extended to him, he watched their proceedings with look which I've shall not soon forget. It is time that some legislative action should be had on this subject. It is impossible for the county court to force any one to take care of panpers. Why, ill the name of humanity, do they not enact that ev- cry county shall build poor-house, in which the victims of poverty and sickness shall find food and shelter?

To Inc Edator Qf the .adoocaie:
 sir-Ihe member of the Legislature. who is oitiitt in the fast Gazette, against Mai. Field, should have followed the advice once given to a legislator elsewhere-he should have qualified before he left home. We care very little about Maj. Fields political principles. He makes a good Clerk. and earns his pay, and that is all we care about. That is more, we think, than the "Member of the Legislature" does--at least, if we can judge from the way he murders the "King's English" tpe are satisfied with Mai Field, and are willing to pay him so long as he serves us well.

.Mandan Religion. Geo. Catlyn, of
whose portefeuille on Indian portraits we
have frequently spoken Of, is we believe,
lecturing at Mobile. We trust he will
soon make his way 10 the northern cities.
Indians are no rarities but rather nuisan-
ces TO the people about there. 10 US they
are becoming subjects of historical interest
and therefore magnitied in Importance
if the following, related by Mr.. Catlyn, as
we find it in the Mobile Commercial Re-
gister, be true narrative, it is certainly
a most extraordinary and unexpected con-
firmation of the truths Of the Bible. The
ark therefore must have landed on the
Chimborazo or the Aleghanies, and the
Indian tribes that once populated this coun-
try, must have been among the descendants
of Abraham.
"Ihe origin of the religious ceremony
Of the Mandans is both novel and interes.
ting. 1t is probable that no white man
was present at its celebration before MIR.
Catlyn, and the gentleman who accompa
MED him and their tradition, connected
with it, of a stranger coming to them from
the west, who had saved himself from a
great food, and had found land on the
mountain in his canoe, has probably been
| first made known to the white man at that
visit. The season OF these ceremonies IS
the budding fthe willow, and the reason
assigned is, that the bird few back with a
sprig Of willow. On being questioned what
bird, their reply was, the mourning dove
The whole tradition upon which these GER
emonies are founded, is matter of spec
ulation for the curious. Through its means
the origin of these wild people, may per-
haps be traced.

TRUST TO YOURSELF

There is glorious principle for the in.
dustrious and trading classes OF the com.
munity and yet the philosophy of il i.
not perhaps understood so well as it ought
| to be.
There is hardly any thing more common
in the country than to hear men spoken OF
who originally, or at some period OF their
lives. were rich, but were ruined by A" seeu
| r'ty;" that is, by becoming bound TO too
great an extent for the engagements of
their neighbors. This must arise in great
measure from an imperfect understanding
OF The question and it therefore seems
necessary that something should be said
in explanation Of it.
would be far from desiring to see men
shut up their hearts against each other,
and each stand, in the panoply of his own
resolution, determined against every ap.
peal whatsoever. II is possible, however,
TO be not altogether churl, and yet to
take care lest we be tempted into an exer-
ton Of benevolence, dangerous to ourselves,
while il is oflittle advantage to our friends
Notwithstanding the many ties which
connect man with society. he nevenhc-
less bears imprinted on his forehead the
original doom, that he must chiefly be
Dependence his own labor for subsistence.
1t is found by all men of experience, that,
in SO far as one trusts to his own exertions
solely, he will be apt to flourish and in so
far as he depends upon others, he will be
the reverse. Nothing can give so good
general assurance of well doing as the per
sonal activity of the individual, day by
day exerted for his own interest. Ifaman
on the contrary, suddenly finds, in the
midst Of such career, a prospect OF some
patronage which seems likely TO enrich
him at once, or if be falls into the heritage
of some antquated claims TO property or
title, which he thinks it necessary TO pro-
secute, i. is ten TO one that he declines from
that moment, and is finally ruined. The
only true way to make happy progress
through this world, is TO go on in dog
ged perscvering pursuit of one good OBJ
iect, neither turning to the right or to the
left, making our business as much as pos
sible our pleasure, and not permitting our
selves TO awake from our dream Of actirity;
not permitting ourselves to think that ice
haze been act.re Till we suddenly find our
selves at the goal Of our wishes, with for
tune almost unconsciously within our grasp.

Chicago.-This place contains at pres
ent between three and four thousand in
habitants. Three years since it was only
a military station. The state is rapidly
settling with emigran.s of industry and
character as well as Of means, and will
soon outrun Ohio. Chicago is one Of the
finest harbors on Lake Michigan, and
there cannot be finer one any where !;
twenty two and twenty five feet of water
in front of the town and completely embay-
ed from any lake winds; and at the same
time the town is not half mile from the
lake, Nature has done everything to rem
der Chicago the finest city in the west. 1t
will command the trade of the Illinois nv
er and Mississippi by means Of the canal
and the west and east by navigation OF the
Lakes. The relative position which CHI
cago bears to our eastern cities, and TO
some of the most fertile regions OF the west
together With the adaptation OF its climate
for trade, points to it as place destined
to be one Of the greatest cities OF The west
