!. Begin at once the work Of redeemiHg
our thousands of paupers from Paupsrism.
Give them work, and the means OF executing
IL; give them good wages and every encourage

for her work, and 50 enable her TO live % 40
least seeming independence, than scrimp and
starve her into the Poor House) abolish the
License system, nd Iepress all grog-seliag;
burn all degrading parri-colored dresses for
Paupes, treat them like fellow beings, and o.
every means to bring them back to eficieI
industry and independence.
2. Garry Christianity into practice; GO,
one and all, into the homes Of the neighb0HrR
Poor and learn their wants, their capacities,
their good traits their errors, counsel, FeprOve,
encourage and diIect them; break up their VIZ
cious associations by ahording them virtuOus
instead; abolish all vaTn distinctions of rank
and dress, and be to them companions and
brethren. See that the houses built for them
are commodous and always in repair afford
them adequate pecuniary AID when It may be
done with prospect Of benefit; see that all
their children attend school and are well educ
Gated; encourage and aid their, emigration
from The crowded dens ofgreat cities 70 suitas
bic locations in the country; and impress on
all who need the counsel the vital importance
of industry, Cleanliness, t. importance andl
Economy Adopt these means, and faithfully
adhere to them, and the number OfPaupers vii
every We ar diminish, until only the decrepid,
the manned and ncurably vicious will remain
paupers, while the great mass will have O.

citizens.
Such, are soma Of the leading IDEAS Of
DR.. Channing's Address, which we have read
with profit, and heartily commend TO general
consideration and acceptance. We UNDER

BURIED TREA~URE. The CentiDeIla De Gal.

eral barrels, containing he SUM Of l6OOO0OOf
in gold, were buried in the district OF LarranOs
near Santiago Two hundred French soldiers
retreatng from Vigo, and being afraid TO en-.
ter Santiago, encamped in the neighborhOod Of
the..city, where sixty of them, having dug q
trench ten feet deep, deposited in it the barrels
by order of their commander. The breaking
of one ofthe barrels disclosed what they were
buryin0, instead of ammunition, as they had
been told. On their return to France, they
were marched off to Russia. But three, Il Is
positively known, survived that campaign
Two of these have since died, and the third,
having waited for the time, after which no
claim is legal in France, TO expire. left for
5 pain, and having explored the spot where no
supposed the treasure to be buried, repaired TO
Madrid, where, through The medium Of the
French embassy, lie signed treaty with the
minister of finance M. CalatraVa by which hO
bound himself to share the sum with the Span
sh Government, on condition thai the latter
should afford i'm the necessary protection d u
ring the operation. The evenis Of June last
his endeavors; but the same treaty
having been signed by NJ. Ayllon, another
search was made without success. owing, no
doubt to an error respecting The position Of the
ground"
