From Egypt's gloom to Canaan's light;
Thy justice is the breaking day
or slavery's long and guilty night;
Then welcome to the battles van,
We hull thee as an honest man.
Thine is the eagle eye to see,
And thine human henri to feel
A worthy leader of The free
We III lrnst thee with nations veal;
We III trust thee in the battles van,
We hail thee as an h0neSL man.
An honest man an honest man
To do the right and brave the scoTn,
God made thee on his nob!es plan,
To stand in freedoms "hope forlorn;"
Then, welcome to the battles van,
We hail thee as our HONEST MAN,

says:-"The finances of the Government am
glad to inform you, have assumed more
promising appearance than they have had for
some time past. The receipts from customs,
including bonds for The las, quarter, will en-
oeed four millions and a half. and nearly four
millions deducting The expenses of debenturcs
and collection. The receipts from the sales
of land. will amount to three hundred thou
sand dollars, and, perhaps, seventy thousand
in addition. In small sums, from one hun
dred to fifty thousand dollars also. the Loan is
now taken. No new Treasury Notes are is
sued, though the Department has the aulhor-

JOHN n. PEYToN, ESQ.


The Richmond Wing pays the following
well merited compliment to Mr. Peyton, on
the annunciation of his purpose to retire from,
the Senate of Virginia:
81 he people Of Augusta and, Rockbridge, and
the State generally, will see, with regret the an
nunc'a''on OF this gen,le'nan's purpose to retire
from the public councils Mr.. Pey.on came into
the Senate Of Virginia three wears ago, and his
accession contributed greatly TO the object at that
time much cons!deted and desired by the State, TO
elevate the greatly declined aud declining stand
ard and c'iarae:er of that body, for ability. The
last spring elections, have started another retro
graduation IN some instances, and we are concern-
ed at any circumstance calculated to accelerate
the down-hill aarch. Independent of this the
abstraction of Mr.. Peytoa's fine talents large ex.
pe'ieice, legal ami general knowle modera-
tion, hrmness and courtesy, from any Legislative
body, must he seriously felt.
We hope his mau,le will fall on the shoulders
OF some pian worthy to be his successor, and the
Representative Of so enlightened district"

POLITICAL SQUEAMSHNESs.

The Richmond Wing urges with great force
the attention Of the people OF Virginia 10 the fact,
that while The Legislature is wasting time in
schemes OF. taxation and sinking fund to meet
The public debt, there is iying idle in the Ma
uonal Treasury at Washingtnn, the sum of IMir-
iY-seecm in usand Doihrs, Yirginia's share of the
Land Fund.
The Committee Of Finance proposes 10 add
100000 10 the taxes, at time when a Iaroe.
portion OF the levies of the last year is still unco-
iected, and when the groans OF The people are
pouring III upon their representatives. from all
quarters for relief. Are the people willing to
sustain that bastard morality, engendered in the
hot-bed Of party, which rejects that which right
July belongs 10 them; and this, too, with the
childish plea that their o,on monty will ;cotrup,
them! Under the distribution act Of 1887, 1.-THE
Jackson era,) we receiUed six or seven hundred
thousand dollars, and that amount we retain.
without word as to lis payment! And We,
mock mora!ists tell us that We must not touch The
snail fund, now useless at Washington, least we
become contaminated there by. Let il be distinct
ly understood that the Federal Government cam
not touch cent of it without a repeal of the
law.
The Question then comes home 10 the people-
DO you prefer TO have your fares increased-or
will you take The Land Fund " hich is yours by
solemn law of Congress? Ii you prefer taxation,
posterity may well conclude that their fathers
were little ''more nice than wise.''

HOW no DO GOOD.

A quaint writer, who takes To himself the
cognomen Of Charles Quill, gives short
and easy method of doing good, which will DO
found as efleciual a one as could be adopted.
He says, sWhy do you begin to do good so
far oGs This is ruling error. Begin at
the centre, and work outwarls. Hyou do not
love your wife, do not pretend to such love for
the people ofthe antipodes. fyou let some
| family grudge, some peccadillo, some unde-
sirable gesture, sour your visage towards a sis
ter or daughter, pray cease to preach benef-
cence on large scale. Begin not next door,
but within Your own door; with your next
neighbour, whether relative, servant or superior.
Account the man you meet the man you arc
to bless. Give him such things as you have.
slow can make him or her happier 20 This
is the question. If a dollar will do it, give the
dollar. If advice will do it, give advice. II
chasiisement will do it, give chastisement. IL
a look, smile, or warm pressure of the hand,
or a tear will do IT, give the look, smile, hand,
or tear. But never forget shat the happiness
OF our world is mountain Of golden sands,
and that it is your part to cast some contribu-
tory atom every moment" There is as much
philosophy and sound morality beautifully
expressed in these few words as there is in
volume of sermons. Let every individual
practice the rule laid down, and see how soon
he opportunities for doing good will present
themselves, how much more satisfaction he
will feel HIMSELF how much better he will be
satisfied with the world and the world with
nm. The common duties Of life are those
which are oftenest passed over with inattention,
md yet the whole happiness of our lives, and
81 those connected with us depends, essential
y, upon their performance. They show the
rue temper Of our virtue, and, as they are
rood or badly performed, promote or destroy
hat peace and perfect satisfaction of mind in
which true happiness consists--Ledgcr.
