"UAiiher shall I go from My SPIRIT"

God is the controller of all events Every
change through the universe wears the impress of
his agency. The most important and the most
minute results point unerringIy to him. The
birth OF an insect and the creation of world, are
alike the effects of his power. He extends that
great central law which binds planet in its
sphere, to the dew-drop that trembles on the leaf
oil the rose. lie heaves the ocean, and curls the
surface of the sleeping lake. He plunges the
saiaIsSt g Saghh IF he quiet vale. Heun-
binds the earthquake that is to otherthrow cities,
and lends music to the lay OF the morning lark
From the seraph that knees on the footsteps of
his burning throne, to the pebble that paves the
sunless caverns of the deep, all is seen and is
heard. No note of happiness or sorrow escapes
his ear. The wall of nation and the cry of
the young raven, come up together before him.
He hears the soul-sick confessions of the pam
pered monarch, and the signing of the desolate
captvs. He marks the distress that wraps the
palace in weeds, and the disappointments that in
wade the simple hopes of the cottage. He is by
the side of departing age and the dying couch OF
infant life. The tears of the great and the small,
the rich and poor, are mingled in one cup before
him. And this God is ours; our father and our
friend; our guide and protector in life; our only
refuge in death. To love and serve him is our
happiness, duty and highest moral dignity.

FROM MEXICO.

The New Orleans papers contain some
items of Mexican intelligence, received by a
late arrival from Matamoras. We extract the
following from the Bee of the 9Th instant:
"After prolonged struggle, Santa Anna has
succeeded in Overcoming The Government. Bus
tamente, it is sad is imprisoned, and at the mer-
cy OF the conqueror, around whom have rallied
the troops and other commanders. This result,
from the information have received appears
lndubitable. Whatever opinion we may have
formed of Santa Anna, his tact and ability are
beyond dispute. OF this, his popularity is per.
haps the best evidence. We anticipated the g.
vent almost soon as we heard of his having
raised the standard Of revolt, and of his efforts to
sow the seeds of popular discomfort among the
masses. 49,
'We have not learnt the details respecting this
revolution, but it is probable that the capital OF
Mexico has suffered greatly, as the intestine war
commenced within its precincts, and has been
there decided, after contest of several weeks.
NV hat will be Santa Annals future course D.
VIII he rc-establish, in all its purity and simpli
city, the Constitution of 1924! Will he convoke
Convention, to form new Constitution, OF will
he seek to create military dcspotism If the
hero OF San Jacinto be powerful enough, he will
undoubtedly prefer the latter alternative. But he
is too skilfu openly to contend with public opin-
Goverhment is about TO despatch expeditions for
the purpose of subduing those Provinces which
have had the audacity TO declare themselves in
dependent-such Texas, Campeachy, and
Tobasch. This circumstance would lead to the
belief that it is Santa Annals intention to oTgan-
iZe strong Government-in other words, a mill.
tary rule. Santa Anna. should, however, remem-
Der that if the lanres of victory sometimes con-
ceal the chains ofservitude, his must be powers
full and practised hand that attempts TO gather

NO TIME TO READ.

We have often encountered men who profess to
believe they have no time to read. Now we think
OF 1t there have always been men of such charac-
tiers, the points Of which are easily summed up.
Nine times out of ten :hey are men who have
not found time to confer any substantial advan-
tage either upon their families or themselves.
They generally have time to attend public
barbecues, camp meetings, sales and singing
schools, tut they have no time to read.
They frequently spend whole days in gossip
ping, uPpling and swapping horses, but they
have "no time to read.''
They sometimes lose day in asking advice of
their eighbors-sometimes day in picking I'D
the news, the price current, and the exchange,
but these men never have slime to read'
They have time to hunt, to fish, to fiddle, to
drink, to-'donothng,' but mo time to read.'
Such men generally have uneducated children,
nnlmproved farms, and unhappy fresides. They
have no energy; no spirit of improvement, no
love OF knowledge; they live "unknowng and
unknown" and often die unwept and unregret-
ted

SINGULAR ADVENTURE.

A traveller, whose name we have not learned,
escaped from one of the Good Intent stages on
Tuesday evening last, about mile from town on
its eastern direction, whilst moving at swift
pace down Hill. He leaped head foremost
over the lap of another passenger, who endeavor-
ed to keep him back by holding to him, but could
not succeed. The stage was Immediately stop
ped, and diligent search made, but to 10 purpose.
The stage with the balance of the passengers, in
Guiding brother-in-aw of the man who disap-
peared, returned to town. A large number of
persons Immediately went in pursuit ofhim with
lights, it being extremely dark, and after search
ing over the hills for some time, returned to town
without finding him. Next morning, however,
he came into town without hat, coat or shoes, and
the only account he gave for his singular conduct
was, that riding with his back TO the front had so
affected his head that he imagined one of the
passengers intended to kill him. He is, we
learn, a Menonist minister, having very long
beard, and was on his return from large meet
ing in Ohio, to his home in York county, Pa
Cumberland CipiHinn.

AGRICULTURAL EXPERIMENT.

A late Liverpool paper gives an account Of an
interesting agricultural experiment lately tried in
town in Cheshire county. On the 9th of May
last five alternate ridges of wheat, measuring one
acre, two roods, and four perches, were sowed
with five cwt. of nitrate Of soda. In few DAYS
the difference between the ridges sowed with the
nitrate and the intervening ridges of the same
size could be discerned at considerable distance
from the field, which continued throughout the
summer. The two sorts have been reaped
tbreshed, measured, and weighed separately, and
the following is correct account orthe produce
Nitrate, 4S bushels, weight per bushei So lbs.
straw, 2 tons, A CIV. 3 qrs. Sc lbs. The Other
% bushels, weight per bushe So lbs. straw,
ton, cwt. or. Q lbs. The quality of both was
inferior, but the nitrate wheat would have been
better crop if less quantity Of the nitrate had
been soWn.
