and thy neighbor as thyself''
The Bible carries with it the history of the
Creation, the fall and the redemption of man
aud discloses TO him in the infant born al
Bethlehem, the Legislator and Saviour of The
world. The faith in him and i'm his divine
mission Is inseparably connected with the per-
Torrance OF his will, ard that will is all com
prised IN the song of the angel at his BIRTH
"Glory TO God in the Highest aud on earth
peace, good will to man."
In whatever region Of the earth, in whatever
condition of the human being, this blssful
sound first saluies his ears, the depravities OF
his nature fall before it. The selfish and ram
corous passions which had absorbed his soul
and ruled his conduct under the impulses OF
haired and revenge, sink with him into impo-
fence. He baihes in the waters Of Jordan, and
rises cleansed from his lcprosv, in the fresh
ness and vgor OF health, aud the purity OF
benevolence and mercv.
Such has been the progress Of the Gospel
wherever the Bible has been carried and SUI
Tered to be read In the mysterious Provi-
dence OF God, Its influence has been counter
acted by the spirit of evil; in all lis thousand
forms, throughout long succession of ages.
Its advancement, has been slow; its victories
desperately contested; its triumphs subject to
cruel vicissitudes; It's war against the world,
the flesh, and the serpent, a perpetual never
ceasing struggle. Yet its march has been
uniform in purifying and ennobling the moral,
intellectual and physical condition and char
acler OF man. To circulate and distribute
among great multitudes of men, in every quar-
ter of the globe, this blessed volume, was the
purpose for which this society was Instituted.
One generation of mankind has since passed
away.
The secretary of the society is now pre-
sent, and will give an account of its labors,
lis success, and It's prospects. trust it will
be proved To the satisfaction Of this assembly.
that by its labors the human being of this age
Is, on the whole, wiser. better and happier
than the human being of the last; that by the
success of these labors. it will be cheered and
encouraged TO persevere in them by the emu
lalion OF the present age. to contribute their
aic To the progress Of human wisdom, virtue
and happiness, from age to age, till that con-
summation of human felicity promised in thus

lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with

THE BENEFITS OF a HOME MARKET.
STRIKING FACTS.

We would ask our cotton planters, what
would be their situation the present season
without the Home Market furnished by our
domestic manufacturers II is notorious
fact that the prices paid for cotton in this
country are now, ard have been throughout
the season, higher than The English quotations.
And why? Simply because we have Home
Market We know i'll ibis country that the
crop is Il short one. Our northern manulac-
turers know il. John Bull, however. does
not believe it--he is unwilling to believe it
and WiH not believe, until his necessities com
pei the conviction. He, conseauenty. puts
his hands into his brooches pockets, and
says-"This story about a short crop is all
humbug, got up by Brother Jonathan to make
me pay better price for his cotton than
did last year. don't believe tive got a
pretty good lot on hand yeti can wait
jonathan cunt, for he must have money
WILL wait until he comes down to my price,
Now, if John Bull had the game all in his
own hands, as the free trade, anti-tariG people
would place it, Brother Jonathan WOULD have
I to submit to Bulls low prices for, as Bul
says very truly, Jonathan nCsr have so1II
money as soon as his cotton is ready for mar
kct But, thanks to the Incidental protectio,
which has given such an impulse to our homt
manufactures. Jonathan is NOT wholly am
solely dependent Upon the bluff John Bull
He has cotton buyers and cotton manufacture
ers Of his own, who, seeing the case MS it is
come forward and give what is the worth o
the article; thereby supplying Jonathan
most pressing necessities, antxeudbling IuM Il
''hold on" as we'll as John Bull. Thus ~

FACTS WELL TOLD.

The following, from that able and cuer-
getc journal, the Memphis Enquirer, gives the
Planest and most forcible exempliiicalion of
the operation of the Tariff that we have ever
met with. We don't see how any one.
observes the Mobile Advertiser,) after read
ing 1t, can doubt the necessity of home
market, or any longer adhere to the visionary
and fallacious doctrine Of Free Trade. The
ground at first taken by the Locos. that the
cost OF the article was increased 10 the full
amount of the duty imposed, has had to be
relnqulshed, for experience has so papaby
shown its faiacy, that it would be idle 10 at
tempt any longer 10 maintain IT. The posi-
ton now taken is, that the Tariff protects the
manufacturer to the injury of the farming and
other interests of the country. To the truth
OF this, also, experience is every day giving
fresh refutations, and it will be found to be as
untenable as The former, Let the people in.
qulre diligently, and mark closely, the effects
OF the Tariff, every where becoming daily
more manifest i'll the increasing prosperity of
EVERY BRANCH OF BUSINESS, and they will
be satisfied that It's operation is not partial,
but that its vitalising influence is felt equally
throughout all the varied interests of the
country.

describes the fashions in New York:
"Wiihin the pas. week an invoice Of bonnets

like beds of lilies and roses. AT an early hour
on the morning of this arrival, Park Place was

THE LAMENT OF THE DISCARDED

Exceedingly distressed!
No soothing potion now can heal
The anguish ofmy breast.
1t is shame, upon my word,
TO see another thus preferred,
And with her beauties blcst,
While am Tilted, flung, refused,
Disdaincd, rejected, scorncd, abused.

This cruelty to me

When no one else would be.
I've taken her TO partics-balls-
Asscmblies--Pve made morning calls
I've even gone to tea;
I've o-saD i.on autumn until spring
A dapgicr at her apron string.
I've wandered with her many night
Along the dcwy sward,
When Dian from her cloudlcss height
mellow radiance poured.
Pvc made her prescnts-rings and roses,
Perfumes, pomatums, prints and posics-
And this is my reward
To see her thus another's bride,
Myself most rudciy cast aside.
'Sdea'h, tits too much does she suppose
We men were made to sigh,
And cringc, and iawn, and knecl to those
who cast us coldy by,
And tear our very heart strings from us,

I'll lay my damage high

Are quite expensive recrcations.-Ne,r Miro
