referring to the high prices Of provi-

have the dawn Of a little correction.
Flour and Bacon have been kept bach,
and the pricesthus kept up, until the
advance of the season and the amount
of the accumulation compels both arti-
Hcles into market. Our markets this
week have been abundant, mall the ar
:ticles Of the season. Prices have con-
.sequently receded. Country bacon, Of
excellent quality, has been sold from
wagons, at ten and a half and eleven
cents per pound for hams. It has ran
ged something near cent lower, if sold
in quantities. Flour has gone off at a.
bout two dollars and sixty cents per
hundred. Potatoes, thirty-seven and a

TO YOUNG MEN.

There is no moral object so beautiful
to me asa conscientious young ma n.
watch him as Lido astarin the heavens;
clouds may be before him, but we know
that his light is behind them, and viii
beam again; the blaze Of others pros
Iperity may outshine him, but we: know
that, though unseen, he illumines his
own true sphere. He resists tcrnpta-
ton not without struggle, for that is
not a virtue: but he does resist and
conquer; he hears the sarcasm Of the
profligate, and it stings him; for, that
is the trial Of virtue; but he. heals the.
wound with his own pure touch. He
heeds not the watchword Of fashion if
it leads to sin; the Atheist who says
not only in his heart, but with his lips,
there is no God!' controls him not,
for he sees the hand Of a creating God,
and reveres it-of a preserving God,
and he rejoices in it.
Woman is sheltered by fond arms
and loving counseE old age is protect
ed by its experience, and manhood by
its strength; but the young man stands
amid the temptationSof the world like
"a self-balanccd tower, happy he who
seeks andggains. the prop and shelter Of
morality.
Onward, then, conscientious youth!
raise thy, standard and nerve myself for
goodness. IL God has given thee in
tellcctualpower, awakenitin that causc;a
never let it be said Of thee, lie helped
TO swell the tide Of sin by pouring his
influence into its channels. II thou art
feeble in mental strength, throw not
that drop into polluted current. A
wake, arise, young man! assume the
beautiful garb Of virtue! II is fearfully
easy to sin; it is diificultto be pure and
holy, Put On thy strength, then! let
thy chiyalry be aroused against error;
LET truth be the lady Of thy loyc-de-
fend her, Southern Rose.

RURAL SCENERY.

4 90 - = \ H. I. IA
n am devoted lover of rural scene
nv. TO ranlble over the green-clad
hills and climb the rugged sides Of my
native mountains, has never failed, from
my youth up, to fill my bosom with
emotions Of the most exquisite pleasure
and delight. How frequently, in the
Ihalcyon days Of youth, ere the cold
and whitening touch Of misfortune and
disappointment had fallen upon and
lquenched the ardor of my joyous spi-
IIrit, have.I with indcfatigable toll and
Iexertion, succeeded in gaining the top
most pinnacle Of sonic one Of the lofty
piles Of rock and earth which overlook
ed my patcrnal home, with no other
earthly object in view, save that Of ga
zing in brcathlcss wonder and 3admira-
ton upon the unparalleled beauties Of
creation, which, like a map, or a finely
executed painting, were far beneath
my feet, spread out in all their richan
lyaricgated loneliness, and presented in
glowing colors to my enraptured vi
sion.
When my mind reverts to those
bright scenes of buoyant hope and
lthoughtless boyhood scenes which e.
iver and anon rise up to fancy's view,
like the faint recollections of some long
forgotten though pleasing dream, in a
moment seem to be hurried back, and
lreveling in all the rapturous glee and
ecstatic bliss Of youth amid those hap
tpy, sunny hours, when life presented
fonly one continued round Of ardent
hope and delirious joy, which formed
Ia bright halo of glory around the early.
days Of my existence.
/ 0, happiness! thou fleeing phantom,
SO eagerly sought, and SO seldom found
Jby the giddy sons Of men, where is the
