How vain are ali things here below;
How false and yet how fair"

The fairest prospects of earthly happiness
are liable to be the occasion Of disappoint-
ment and sorrow. One moment our COM
forts are lifted high by anticipated good, the
next they are sunk in the grave by solemn
reality. Though many blessings flow to US
from the Fountain Of all goodness, yet this
world truly is "vale of tears"
So il has been to all the friends who have
been called to mourn the death of Mrs.
Sophia Winca, of Mortified. She was the
daughter of Jonathan F. and Mercy Rug
! giles, Of Roxbury; in which place she was
born in 1912. Seventeen years Of her life
were spent without hope of blessed i'm
mortality, and practically without God 10
/ the world: but early in her 18th year she
gave evidence of change Of heart, and of
vital union to Christ by faith. Not far
/ from one year afterwards she was baptized
and united with the Freewill Baptists, with
whom she continued until after she was
married TO Joel Winch, jr., of Mortified, in
/ 1858. w ltuiH Two years dtteI uel tldIAidSc

which she continued faithful member till

not always equally glowing, yet her piety

in the knowledge of Jesus Christ. She
loved the Gospel, and took great delight Ii
hearing il. Her trust was not in works O

From The Truth
o 2 d = r ? a Y.

This is a system of oppression not so
we'll understood as it ought to be; svs-
tenn as artful as it is difficult to cure; and
likely to be the more practiced as it is the
less exposed. And this is practiced even
in Pennsylvania. LIE. US explain it. = A
master manufacturer has large number
of persons in his employ. After they,
their wives and children, have become
Icompletely dependent son him and his
business for their daily bread; incompe-
tent from habit to labor in another voea-
Ition. and unable or unwilling to run the
risk OF change, he informs them he must
stop business and leave them unemployed.
or they must trust him several months for
their labor. Ga this proposal they look
first into the face of grim starvation, and
then into that of the GRADING employer,
10 see which is the less cruel, and then
conclude. net because they hate oppress-
ion less, but because they fear starvation
more, to submit to this dictate of the
"credI system." And. this is called a
voluntary bargain, in which all parties
ACT with equal freedom. So
These free contracting parties further
agree that the laborers shall receive, in
stead of cash, due bills, certificates or
orders from their employers, payable say
10 four months after their date.
Now note the Consequences that flow
from this arrangement. The employer
saves the one-:hird Of six per cent, that is.
two per cent. per annum, on all be pays
his hands, by inducing, not to say compel
ling, them to trust him oee4hird OF year.
He generally establishes or controls a
store, at which the orders in the hands of
the poorest and most dependent laborers
are exchanged for food, fueI, and clothing,
on such terms as it may suit the seller to
impose on the buyer.
Whenever necessity or convenience re-
quires the employer to negotiate failure,
the four months earnings of bis Iaborers,
as we'll as the claims in ADLER hands, are,
or may be totally lost. Thus he who
promises to pay bis hands 100000 a
year, may when he chooses to break put
more than $4,000 of their earnings into
his own pocket Again, the poorest and
most dependent Iaborers, who cannot wait
for cash till their orders are due, must be
shaved from six per cent. upwards, in
changing them into money! A spurious
currency also is thus put into circulation.
unless the whole community refuse all
trade and exchange with their unfortunate
fellow citizens who are the helpless VIC
tins Of this artful system. Finally, think
of a man or woman, in a free country,
compelled to buy of certain individuals
; only, nearly on the sellers own terms,
without ever getting sx.pence change,
and without ever having six-pence of legal
currency, unless bought at cruel premi-
um and then believe all you can of the
fairness of ''order pay" and the mutual
independence and equality of the payer
and the paid. Enough for the present.

London, in 1851.
BREAD.

If you setany value on health, and have
a mind 10 support nature, you must cot
separate the finest from the coarseSt -four !;
because that which is fine, is naturally of
an obstfucting and stopping quality. But
on the contrary, the other, which is
coarse, is of a cleansing and opening ma
ture; therefore, that b7ead is best, which
is made of both together; 70: in the in
ward bran and skin of the wheat, is con.
tanned quality which is of a sweet, frien.
dIy nature by reason whereof, the breaC
which is made Of fine and coarse together
will! not only be sweeter, and keep longer
moist, but is also more wholesome, and
easier of digestion; gently loosening the
bowels, it will strengthen also more than
the other bread, made of fine boiled flour
1t must be confessed, thatthe nutrimentive
quality is contained in the flour; We: ir
the bran is contained the opening and Gi
gestice quality and there is as great ne
cessity of the one, as the other, for tb'
support of health; for when the fines
-four is separated from the coarsest ant
branny parts, neither of the one nor tht
other have the true operations of the fou
! OF q0heat
By what has been said, we may gather
that the eating Of fine bread is lnlmIcal Il
health, ard contrary both to nature AM
j reason, and was first invented to grailfl
/ wanton and luxurious persons, who ar
! ignorant both of themselves and the true
| virtue and efficacy of natural things.

seems to have excited great atRntion in
that quarter, and the Bristol Agric ulluraI
Association seems determined to give it 4
fair tial. 1t is said the inventor has Sc.
cured 10 himself the benefit Of his discov-
cry, not on y in Eng land, but in France,
America, Belgium, Prussia, and other
parts Of the world. The materials used
in the manufacture Of this manure, are de-
scribed as being five in number,viz wood,
btuminious matter, soda, quick-lime, and
So phur, and he thus describes the materl-
ais and mode of manufacture:
LIST. Wood of every description. Lig-
enous matter is reduced to a powder by
mechanical means, and forms the basis
of the. manure.
2. Bituminous matter of every kind
is used, either in a powdered state
or rendered soluble by caustic aka
lies, and is then applied in various ways
to saturae thoroughly the powdered wood.
8. Soda and quicklime are both put in
requisition in forming the composition.
4. Sulphur also forms an ingredientto a
small extent ia the composition.
Such are the substances which have
been compounded for the production Of re-
suits, which have attracted large portion
of public attention in England, and which,
it is said, should subsequent experience
produce results in any way commensurate
with those which have attended a four
years trial by the discoverer, on some ex-
ceedingIy elevated and poor land in the
neighborhood ofthe city of Bath, cannot

pendence, Slavery, &c.-a of which have go long
scourged Mankind, will be done away with as if BY
magic influence
What are the two primary conditions of Man )
worldly Happiness First Riches, or an abund-
ance of every thing necessary to bis physical wants
and comforts Second. Pleasing. invigorating and
ennoblipg occupations.
How is Man to obtain Riches if Labor, which,
combined with the fertility of the Earth, is the
sole and only source of psaAh, is repugnaut and
disbonorable, and impels him to avoid it BY every
means within his power
On the other hand, how are ele,atins and pleasing
occupations TO be secured ali ages end both sexes
Industry, which Of itself comprises half of the
sphere of human Activity, is shut out from Man BY
the repugnanc-, monotony and disgust connected
with its exercise?
ATTRACTIVE INDUSTRY is the first remedy to be
applied TO Social Evils. 1t will sweep Poverty
with its sufferings and cares, from the Earth,-do
away with at least onehalf of disease, abolish ser
vile dependency and seryitude under every FORM
and fill the world with Plenty and Prosperity.
1t will open, also, new and noble career TO the
Activity of Man, and employ usefully that intel

and which degencrates often into vice and crime
