THA N sGIvING.

This time-honored Puritan Festival takes place
 in this State to-day. and in our estimation it is, to New Englanders. the most interesting anniversary of the year. It had its origin among the pious pill. erims of New Eng land, and its annual celebration was for nearly two hundred years peculiar to them and their descendants. But of recent years, the custom has been gradually growing in favor with
 the people of our country until it is now introdu- ced into nearly one half of !he States of Il Union. It has been suggested that the nation. as s,sch' should celebrate the anniversary On this subject. the Newark Daily Advertiser remarks. '' How tru- ly beautiful would be the spectacle of whole peo. ple, from the Rocky alter of the Pilgrims to the Western Ocean. and from the St. Lawrence to the Gulph of Mexico, lowing together at the same time in adora,ion to their fathers God. and bringing their first fruits, the devotion of millions of sincere hearts at one common altar. How Illustrative ofthe genius of our national institutions. to every sect in it's own peculiar way, unmolestcd and free, form ing bond of union in this act Of worship. as chil- dren of one blessed land-as the rec ipents of com mon bounties from the one great Source of all hu- man bless,ngs."
 
 ry cause for gratitude and rejoicing While the people in many parts of our country and especially of the old world. are suffering from scarcity and famine. we have generally been blessed with fruitful season, and the ingathering of bonntiiui harvests has surprised and gladdened the hearts of our husbandmen. who had been led to fear for the judgments of Providence. A happy Thanksgiving may it prove to the thousands of long-scattered families who will this day be gathered beneath the ancestral roofs of our favored commonwealth !- The winds of autumn cannot chill the glow of those social affections which are now warming the hearts of parents and children and friends. as they meet around the festive board and family altar. Pleas ant memories of days tha: are gone, throng thick and fast-awakening in the spirit thousand bliss lul scenes of "long ago."

 The Locus are as famous as the ''PoOr Mans Plaster tor siiesiHg to their friends and to each other; i. e., long as they don't get in one anoth- CTS way in the 'scramble for Plunder." Then they are apt tn be rather wal6sh. An instance of this may he seen in the case of SilOs Afr, Esq, of New Haven, who, for the last ten or twelve years has battled for ''the democracy" through thick and thin; but having recently fallen under the displeasure of the clique who manage the Columbian Register, he is denounced by that pa- per ''dead weight upon the party ," as ''no bet ter than whig"-a " traitor to his pGrty," &c., The Register adds:

We trust the gentleman will be satisfied with this ''explanation."
 The cause of the Registers wrath arises from his having taken an active part with the ''young de- mocracy." in opposition 10 the "Old Hunkers.

JoRE QurNcY ADAMs-The following letter, was written by Hon. John Quincy Adams to a Committee of the Pennsylvania Society for the Ab. OlitiOn of Capital Punishment:
 Boston. 7th Nov, 1s46
 Eellow-citiZens :-I regret my inability from the state of my health, to attend the General Meeting of the Friends of the Abolition Of Capital Funish- ment to be held m your city on the Huh inst, to which am invited by your Circular of the 2sth ut.
 Gladly would I cooperate with any Society whose object should be to promote the abolition of every form, by which the life of man can be voun- tarisy taken by his fellow creature man If there be any which, in the intercourse of human SO. ciety. can possibly justify this act. it is that sanc- tioned by the community for the punishment of'e- normous crimes.
 In the progress of the human race towards that improved condition of their existence to which cur Religion teaches that they destined. the total abolition of all violent extinction of the lie ot man by the will and act of his brother. is among the blessed promises of Futurity. War, Slavary, Mur- der, and Homicide in any form, are evils fOndy hope to disappear hereafter. from the annals of the human race upon earth. Every step in this pro- gress that can be made during the remnant of my own life, will be hailed by me with inexpressible delight; and although the revocation of that sen- tence of the Almighty, that twhoso sheddeth mans blood, by man shall his own blood he shed would Tn my prayers to Heaven, be the last accomplish ment of the perfectabilitv of man upon earth, would gladly contribute to it, even in advance of some other forms of homicide more odious in them selves, but perhaps more deeply rooted in the in- hrnties of Mans nature, do, therefore, heartily wish and pray for the of efforts to pro- mote the abolition of Capital Punishment and if you can shape the laws of the land to disclaimer of the right of Government itself take from any human being the life granted him by his Creator I would welcome it as the harbingcr of brighter day. when individual of the race of man shall ev- CT lose his life by the act of another am, very respectfully, gentlemen, your friend and fellow cit izen.r JOHN o.

think this trait tended to add something to the ln terest that one Gelt in him.
 But comments cannot add any thing to his mer- its-and regrets are vain. He died while hope was strong and fresh within him. He had not seen, as in few years bitter experience would have presented to his eyes, the disappointments that wait on a sensitive mind. and the heavy weights that will sometimes settle themselves up- on the wings o: the most buoyant spirit to press it to the earth. He has left to us moral and warn- ing. and "reminiscences like those of y-pleasing dreams.

THE FARMERS, CREED.

. We believe in small farms and thorough cultiva- ton. The soil loves to eat. we'll as i,s owners, and ought therefore to be nurtured.
 We believe in large crops, which leave the land better than they found it-making both the farm and the farmer rich at once.
 We believe in going to the bottom of things, and therefore in deep ploughing. and enough of fit-all the better if with snhsoil plough.
 We believe that the best fertility of any soil is the spirit of industry enterprise. and intelligence: without this. lime and gypsum, bones and green manure. mari, or plaster, will be of little use.
 We believe in good fences, good barns, good farm ho ses good stock. and good orchards.
 We believe in clean kitchen. neat wife in it, spinning piano. clean cup board, dairy and con- science.
 We firmly dsbeleve in farmers that will not im- prove; in farms that grow poor every year in star ved cattle; in farmers boys turning into clerks and merchants; in tanners daughters unwilling to work and in all farmers who are ashamed of their vocation. ..- ..f lg..
 Orch1yds-As soon your apples are gathered prepare the following mixture and give your trees painting: Take in the proportion of two gallons of soft soap, pound of sulphur. and one pound of Snuff: mix, and apply to the body and roots of trees above ground. This will not only destroy the eggs of insects, hut prevent injury from mice and rabbits. Former.
 Mir. Green in his history of the Texan Expedi- ton against Mer observes that those soldiers who had the most bloody notices painted upon their caps the last to prove them true, and he does not recollect of seeing with liberty ordeath' motto, who did not take the liherty of returning home little ton soon. Very similar, we believe, would be the fact in respect to mncl of the current buster in this country about Mexico A certain class ot editors and stump orators are very fond of evincing their superior love of country. by high sounding words ot valar. and in denouncing all who do not join them, as |" traitors" British whigs, Sc. But let their patriotism be put to the test, and many of them would probably find their cour. age, like that of Rob Acres. azing out al their fn- ger s ends. They might initiate a somewhat rele- hrated General who, on the eve of battle said to his troo s: "Boys there's the enemy and we must fight 'em my opinion is they'll beat us, but fight hard. retreat in good order and as Tn little lame I'll start now."s Spvhgfss!d RtsvosIe0M

...,.'4 from u't uHPttVtS"e~ ToeW' . -. ,, s,. BY WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT. To those whose appetites love oysters. and Whose mouths are formed to swalluw, liveJ No more sublime and beautiful ot sights
 Than from the bay shore closest to Pachogue, To gaze on oysterlnen, as with their drags, They rake from ocean depths the shelly fish. r
 let deem not thou whom oysters may devour- Six to ,.?e shilling-always they are fresh; For often day by day, with shells agape, ,r.,, Their fate they lie awaiting. Then, the wight Who purchases aud strives to eat. will find Ills pese annoyed with perfumes not so bland As those which fit Der happy Arahy, .... la. And from lhe counter swift will haste away, ,a To sniff the freshness ot the outer air. ..,-
 Let those who would ayoidthis luckless fate, So smell. before the fish be deep engulphed, Ina, he deeayed ones may re jject, and thus ... Lie down to slumber at the evening hour. And dream, like ancient Pistol, that the world Is one great oyster for their ravenous maw.
