|nure, we advocate attention to cattle in
particular. The common habit of planter
is to pen cattle in the summer and fall, and
leave them to shift for themselves in win
ter. If a few die, he is not very much dis
|tressed, as he calculates generally on still
having as many as he has occasion
for. During the summer he is pleased
with the sleek appearance of them, and in
the winter-he never looks at them.
Now, this will not answer in country
like ours, with a spirit for improvement.
We are all for fine breeds of animals-but
they will not be fine without care. The
most beautiful Durham cattle require food
the large Bakcwell sheep eat-and
Berkshire hogs grow in proportion to their
rations.
We think the Flemish maxim good
one. "No forage, no cattle, no manure
no CROP"

religious. He must understand what he
teaches. Can deaf man teach music?
Or one born blind explain the beauty
and uses of colors? How then can one
who never knew the power and pleasure OF
religion explain them TO others? You can
do no part of the teachers proper work un-
less you have felt the power of divine truth
and do yourself believe on the Lord Jesus
Christ. You must yourself love him whom
you would persuade others to love- ia

KEEP THE PEOPLE IN IGNORANCE

This is the maxim on which the admins
tratIon presses are acting. II is known that
the Secretary of War prepared and present
ed to Congress, at the commencement of its
present session, a plan for the organization
OF an army of 100000 men, and that this
plan Was approved by President Van Buren,,
VINO SAID ne "could not too strongly recon-
mend 1t to the consideration of Congress-"
The Secretary, it appears, had so far per.
tected the details of his ''plan," as to pre-
pare bill with about forty sections. The
attention of the people of Virginia has been
attracted to this bill; and as the Richmond
Enquirer (the leading Locofcco paper in
Va.) had not published it, a resolution was
passed by the Richmond Tippecanoe Club,
appointing committee to wait upon the
editor, and ask him to publish it in no other
way than as an advertisement, to be paid for.
The committee was appointed, and waited
on the editor, rendered the Secretary's re-
port and bill and the Presidents endorsement
OF It, and asked that it should be published,
and rendered the money in payment The
editor, thus cornered, refused to publish i,
on any terms! He dare not let his readers
see detail Of the measures he is bound by
his party associations to approve and sup
port! Was ever party subserviency carried
so far before9 What are we to think of a
party, the leading advocates Of which dare
not lay before the people, without note or
comment the details Of the principles and
measures which it designs to carry out if
successful2 But we refer the reader to the
official statement of the refusal of the editor
ofthe Enquirer to publish the s'plan'' for the
standing army, with the forcibIe and pun
environments Of Richmond Wing.

ofthe the Treasury and Mr.. Benton, design
ed to prove that lhlrty-nine millions OF dol
lars are less than thirteen millions, and so on
10 the end of the chapter; not content with
this continual exuavagance, thay must give
the Executive Printer TEN PER CENT. over
and above what would be a most liberal
compensation, even if there was economy
in the amount Of printing ordered, instead
of the widest extravaganza and prodigality.
The honest Woodworking people Of this
country will look upon this extra-allowance
of ten per cent. in no other light than as an
electioneering fraud, taken from the public
purse, with the view Of sustaining the Presl-
dents official organ in the great contest
which is now going on between the office
holders and the people. The order has gone
forth from head quarters that the Globe must
be strengthened, its contributors increased,
and its circulation extended far and wide.-
Amos KENDALL himself has descended from
the station of Cabinet Minister to give it
the assistance Of his abilities as party ad-
vocate; experienced, vigorous. astute, and
never standing on ceremony with truth Oh
conscience when political object is to be
gained He has already given an example
in this city of the means by which he In
tends to force an increased circulation OF the
paper to which he has allied himselI-ot has
manner of raising that subscription to the
Extra Globe, ON his own account, of which
he told the public, Messrs. Blair 81 Rives
had kindly offered him the profits during the
present season.
A subscription paper has been presented
to each Of the Clerks in theGeneral Post OF
fee Department drawing a salary Of a Ger
tain amount; and they have been requested
to put down their names for six copies Of the
Extra Globe at five dollars! Every body i
aware that although this modest application
is quietly made as a request, it will operat,
as a mandate, to be dsobeyed at the peri
of dismissal from Office. The same system
will be ursued towards all the officers an
agents of the Government throughot tn
land. A general tax is to be levied to in
crease the resources of the paper, and pa
for the services of an ex-member of tn
Cabinet.
All these instruments, mean, and appli
ances will fail to accomplish the purposes c
their authors. Our trust is in the PEOPLE
They have taken their own cause into ihel
own hands. They will recognize and sup
port their hest defenders; and break dow
and trample in the dust the wooden oracle
set up by pampered power to advise and COY
ern them.-MddiSoniGn.
