Democrat.

The name of Democrat must always be,
in the nature of things, proud one. No
matter what changes may take place in
the features of this govcrnment--no mat
ter how changed her institutions, refined,
Corrupt and aristocratic her people--still
there will be associated with it some
thing so grand and mighty, as connected
with the perfection Of human destiny, that
it can never be regarded otherwise than
with sentiments of reverence and respect.
With the expansion and cultivation of the
human mind, the name of Democrat must
advance in magnitude and importance.
Ever since man began, in the mass, to
comprehend his rights, and the larger the
scope grasped by his understanding, the
name has been progressive one, in pow
err and magnitude. Like the faith in
which we all believe, it had humble and
lowly origin; but like that same faith, it
has gathered strength from the very ele-
ments that were associated to destroy it
and were its natural opponents, until it
has shaken kings in their thrones, over
thrown sceptres, created nations and led
them on TO triumph, and diflused the
most important of all elements through
society-the blessings of civil and religi
gious liberty. Founded as the precepts
distinguished by this name are upon the
puresl principles of philanthropy, benevo-
lence and true piety, with the single
object in view of elevalng the human
race to the natural standard of liberty and
equality established by their Creator, and
redeemng the great, interested and useful
mass from the servitude in which the de-
signing, the ignorant, and the interested
have degraded them-the name must be
progressive one as long as the human
race exists. In the art of printing, and in
the progression Of that art, the name and
principles of Democracy possess the stimu-
lus cf deathless vitality. Though crushed
to- earth-though driven back--though,
through the miseonceptIon and corruption
of unregenerate man." it may be rem
dered stationary for time-this time is
but for day; while the name and prin-
ciples of Democracy will only pass away
with the eternity comprehended in the
cycle of erected nce.-UIkesbarre
Farmer.

deposit earthen vessels, and other family
utensils; but tins is only done to Arabs
of a certain rank. Before they quit the
grave, they erect in the middle of it kind
of funeral flag, which is generally piece
of the clothes of he deceased, fixed to the
end oe stick. When the ceremony is
finished, each returns home with the
greatest tranquility, and without showing
in their exterior appearance, any signs of
the melancholy duty they had been dis
charging. The nearest relations and
friends of the deceased GO, from time to
time, and visit his tomb. They remove
some stones from it, and in part uncover
the body, to see that the person has not
returned to life; and when the smell con-
vinces them Of the contrary, they renew
their wailings and lamentations as above
described. Some scatter little lime over
the stones, to make this rude tomb look
somewhat brighter. On every holiday
the Arabs go in crowds to visit the tombs
Of their dead, and to bedew them with
their tears.-PoiretS Travels.

tai enough to establish themselves at their
outset in life in good business. This
is mistaken notion. So far from power
ty being misfortune to him, if we may
Judge from what we every day behold, it
is really blessing: the chance is more
than ten to one in favor of success of such
a young man, over one who starts with
plenty of money. Let any one look
back twenty years, and see who com
menced business at that time with abund-
ant means, and trace them down to the
present day; how many of these can now
boast of wealth and standing! On the
contrary, how many have become poor,
lost their places in society and are passed,
by their own boon companions, with a
look which painfully says, | know you
not

such angelic charms, that one could not
look on her without eXclaiming,
She was nearest heaven of all on earth knew,
And all but alteration was her due.
Mrs. Gusts had fine person, was
what the world called handsome, and her
character and virtues marked her out for
the partner of the first young man in the
ancient dominion. The union was no.
norable and happy to both: and she renal
ned to be his comfort in advanced life: at
his DEATH she was an angel administering
to his wants and witness of his peaceful
departure.
Justice would not be done to the charat-
ter of Mrs. Washington if we failed to
mention her kindness and liberality to the
poor. She was always ready to contri-
butte to the relief of those who needed
charity; and like her estimable husband
she was ever studious of the unfortunate
people of color. And many believe, that
in the employment of such kind masters
and mistresses, the colored people Of the
south are more happy than they would
be if left to provide for themselves.

Flowers i'm Winter.

The New York Mirror gives descrip-
ton of a mode successfully pursued by a
distinguished florist, for producing fresh
blown flowers in winter. It's as follows

scissors, leaving the stem about three
inches long; cover the end Immediately
with Spanish wax, and when the buds are
a little shrunk and wrinkled, wrap them
up separately in paper, and place them in
dry box. When it is desired to have
the flowers to blow, take the buds over
night, cut off the sealed end Of the stem,
and put the buds into water wherein hcs

The American Orator.

The roman orator had the population
of city for his audience, but the Ameri-
can orator has nation of his countrymen
proclaiming the preceptor of morality
yet the Press bears every word which he
utters in the Capitol from the Atlantic
cities TO the Floridas. The merchant of
New York reads the speech when Keeling
on his luxurious couch, after the business
of the day; and the hunter of the Rocky
Mountains can peruse itby the light of the
pine torch. Yes, even in the rude hut OF
the trapper, when the bleak SHOWS are
lying around, and the loud night blast
walls above the lonely dwelling, the
thoughts of the American orator are felt.
Let him remember his responsibility, and
weigh all that he utters. He is speaking
to sixteen millions of freemen.

Mrs. Washington.

The wife of George Washington merits
respectful notice, even if she had posses
sed no personal or moral excellences to
entitIe her to honorable recolleciions.
But her claims TO celebrity rest not solely
to her connection with that distinguished
patriot.-Those most acquainted with
Mrs. Washington readily award to her all
the domestic virtues, and represent her as
a model of propriety in the interesting re-
lation of a wife. She was in truth,
worthy of the man to whom she gave her
hand. In public cares and duties, and
how great and trying these were we have
all heard, she took deep interest and So
licitude, which endeared her to her be-
loved lord, and to the country. All that
belonged to her sphere of duty was faith.

mcnt. In the domestic circle, her deport-
ment may well be linked to his, in pub
+. lie station. 1t was distinguished for pro-
! prety, prudence, economy and dlsinter-
estedness.
George Washington was in public life
at an early age. He was Adjutant-Gene-
raj of Virginia and a Major of militia, in
active service against the Indians, before
he was twen,y-one. And when only
twenty-six, he had been three seasons in
service to the west, on The Ohio, in de-
fence of the frontier settlements Of Virgi.
MIA. His marriage with Mrs. Martha
Gusts, widow of a Mr.. Gusts, was in 1850
when he was about twenty-seven. Mrs
Gusts was few months younger. The
connection was founded wholly in senti
ment and affection. The first time they
met there was mutual admiration fol
each other. He was, even then, the
pride of his native state; and in his per
son and manners uncommonly attractive

Marks Of Good Cattle.


Mr.. SNyDER.-As there is disposition
manifested by many persons TO improve
their stock of cattle, have thought that a
few remarks upon the subject might be ac-
ceptable to some of our readers. In In
diana, the two principal objects in breed
ing cattle, appeare to be beef and milk
And as certain forms are found to possess
particular qualities, shall proceed to des-
cribe hat are the particular forms, and
in doing this, 1 shall avail myself of the
experience and observations of others.
The head ought TO be small and the
muzzle fine, the countenance calm, the
horns fine; the neck light, particularly
where it joins the head the breast wide
and projecting well before the legs; the
shoulders moderately broad at top, and
the points well in, so as TO leave no hol-
lows behind them when the animal is
moderately fat; the girth behind the
shoulders should be deep, so thatif the
carcass was cut across here. il would be
an oval, blunt at both ends; the back
straight, wide gnd fiat; the ribs broad,
and the space between them and the hips
small the flank full and heavy the belly
well kept in and not sinking much in the
middle, the ribs globular, wide across, and
on level with his back the twist should
be wide, and the seam in the middle of il
well filled the thigh should be straight,
tapering well down to the hook the legs
straight, short jointed, clean, fine bowed
and standing far apart, the tail broad tow.

smaller towards the bottom the better

this does not allow sufficient depth; .

barrel-shaped, there will he deficiency

shall now proceed to state the particu
lars of the above described form. The
reason why the head should be small ant
the muzzle fine, is that it facilitates birth
and as the head is composed mostly o
bone, it shows fineness of bone, the advan

An improved Method of making Coffee

Put your coffee latter grinding) into a
flannel bag, tie it closely, allowing suili-
Gent room to boil freely, put it into the
boiler, adding as much water as may be
required. After boiling, it will be found
to be perfectly clear, without the addition
ofegg, &C., having likewise the advantage
of retaining its original flavor and strength
in greater perfection than when clarified.

LOVES WITNESS.

"When I was in thy chamber,
Alone, my love with thee,
Night cast it shadows round us,
And none was there to see;
The very breeze was lying
Asleep within the tree;
Then who could tell, or who reveal,
This cruel tale to mel"
THE lady moon was peeping,
And watch'd us through the tree;
A little star shot downwards,
And told it to the sea;
A sailor caught the whisper,
Who bore no love to me,
And sang before maiden's door,
This wicked tale of thee"
