It is said that Queen Victoria is a Jealous
wife-jealous rather in anticipation than
from cause, as her husbands conduct has SC
far been exemplary. She looks, it is said
with all evil eye on beauty, and strives tc
Danish it from the court: but, in one respect.
at least, her conduct is wise and politic.--
Many of our errors and much of our vices
spring from idleness. 1t has passed into a
proverb, and justly, too, that an idle brain is
the workshop of the evil one; and intuitively
recognizing this truth, Victoria sedulously
strives to guard her Albert from the dangers
of court, by encouraging him to continued
study and employment-to the practice and
composition of music--to drawing and paint
ing--to the languages and to the acquisition
Of graceful accomplishments of every vari-
ETY., taking care that when his teachers are
absent, she shall be present as much as pos
sible, evincing also the greatest sympathy in
all that interests him. If this be SO, Victo-
ria is wise; and perhaps, the lesson may be
useful one to others who are not at the head
of an empire, but arc equally desirous Of
reigning over heart A. better method Of
preventing arrangement could not easily be
devised.--Nsars Saturday Gazette.

have given notice to Mr.. Warren, trader,
located some fifty or sixty miles above Fort
Washita, to abandon his post and return to
the settlement Mr.. Warren, we learn, has

the U. s. military. The Comanches seem
to think that encroachments are being too

ONIoNs.-The medicinal properties of the
onion were known to the ancients. Raw
onions are taken as an expectorant for win
ter cough. Roasted onions are employed
as an emollient poultice to suppurating u
mors, and to the ear to relieve pain. The
expressed juice is given to children and
others, with sugar, &C., as an expectorant in
coughs; vinegar or lemonjuics is often ad-
dsd. Ii is excellent rubbed upon the flesh
for any irritation, and especially for blotch-
es, bites or stings of insects, which are
quickly removed. Applied to the soles Of
the feet for several hours or during the
night, in cases Of colds or local infammaa-
tions, they are found very valuable. 1t is
said that they may be successfully used for
the bites of poisonous serpsnts, or the mad
dog, and that in sickness, in contagious dis
eases, they imbbed much Of the contagious
matter. In all cases, it is used freshly cut
or sliced. Placed within tainting or putrefy-
ing poultry or other meats they are said 10
render them pure and sweet. They
promote the growth of hair by being rubbed
on bald heads. Indeed, it has been sug-
gested that the physiological effects of the
onion have been fully tested. Onions are
composed of an acrid volatile oil, uncrysta-
lizable sugar, gum, wood, fibre, alumen, a.
cetic and phGsphoric scids. phosphate and
nitrate Of lime and water. BY boiling, the vo-
atile of onions is dissipated, and they are
deprived Of their irritating qualities.
/ 1t is said that onious will add TO the fra
GRANGE of flowers. Plant large onion near
a rose bush, SO as to touch its roots, and il
will wonderfully increase the odour Of the
flowers. This is strange but true. Ell,

JEFFERSON AND.ADAMs.--Perhaps there is
not, among all productions of Mr.. Jefferson,
more graceful and delicate specimen Of
his style, than the following letter. 1t was
addressed to John Adams, on the death Of
his accomplished wife, the mother Of John
Quincy Adams:
MONTICELLO, Nov. 13, 1918.
The public papers, my dear friend, an
nounces the fatal event of which your letter
of October the Goth had given me ominous
foreboding Tried myself in the school of
affection by the loss of every form of con-
nexion which can rive the human heart,
know we'll, and feel what you have lost,
what you are suffering, and have yet to en-
dure. The same trials have taught me that
for ills so immeasurable, time and silence
are the only medicine. will not, there
fore, by useless coincidence, open afresh the
silence of your grief, nor, mingling sincerely
my tears with yours, will | say word where
words are vain; but that it is some comfort
to us both that the time is not very distant,
at which we are to deposit in the same tene-
ment our sorrow and suffering bodies, and to
accend in essence to an ecstatic meeting
with the friends we have loved and lost, and
whom we shall still love and never lose again.
God bless you and support you under
your heavy afflction.

there is no freeman but his servant. though

FACTORIES mi THE WEST.

II would be curious inquiry, and one
not altogether unworthy of a comprehensive
mind, how far the avocations and staple pro-
ducts of different sections of this republic
will change during the next fifty years. If
we look back half century, we shall find
that New England was then wholly trading
and agricultural community--that the south
grew rice instead of cotton-that Philadel-
phia was the greatest seaport belonging to
the United States. In our day New Eng
land is manufacturing; New York is the COM
mercial emporium; and Philadelphia has be-
come the great market for mineral products,
which. fifty years ago, were undiscovered
But vast as these changes have been, we see
greater ones looming up in the future. AL
ready the west and south are beginning to
manufacture for themselves. Kentucky
jeans, which, few years ago, were made
wholly 10 the east of The mountains, arenow
turned out in immense quantities on the
very soil where they are destined to be con-
sumed. Cotton mills are going up every
where in the great valley 1t is, indeed, i'm
possible that, for the present, these estab-
lishments should prove very lucrative; for
capital is scarce in the west and labour is
even scarcer. But when fifty years shall
have elapsed, and the great valley be teem-
ing with its hundred millions, it will become
an object to manufacture every possible ar
ticle of dress ON the spot where it is to be
worn. We shall no longer hear of cotton or
wool being transported across the mountains,
in order 10 be carried back again after being
made up into fabrics; for it will be found that
a saving of at least twenty. per cent. can be
made by manufacturing the raw material at
home. By that period, too, the middle states
will have embarked largely in manufactures,
which they will find advantageous in conse-
quence of their position as the great distri-
butng states of the Union. And, unless we
mistake, the consequence will be TO change,
once more, the business pursuits of New
England, and to make her people great
commercial and ship-building community
The grandsons of the men who are now
achieving fortunes in the "cotton line," will
find themselves, at the close of the nine
teenth century, like their fathers at the close
of the past one, competing with England for
the carrying trade ofthe world, and Glamour
ing for no imposts as boisterously as their
ancestors ever did.-Neals Saturday Ga

A SKETCH OF SANTA ANNA.
His fortunes Dithin a fc,c years.

The recent revolution in Mexico, together
with the overwhelming change in the for
tunes of Santa Anna, has impaired fresh in
terest to the life of man so extraordinary
and who, but the other day "the observed by
all Observers" with the destinies of a ma
tion in his hands, is now it may be presum-
ed, little better than fugitive and an out
law. The more immediate events, in his
history have been full Of stirring excitemsnts.
His captive by the Texans, his release, his
return TO Mexico in an American National
vessel, his overthrow by Gen. Almonte, his
reelection as President, his loss Of leg in
defence Of Vera Cruz, his new movements
for the re-conquest Of Texas, the death of
his wife, his speedy marriage to another, the
late popular outbreak, his tyranical conduct
towards the Mexican Congress, the fidelity
TO him of a large body of his followers, the
pertinacity of his resistance to repeated at
tacks on Puebla, and finally, if the last ac-
counts be true, his negotiations for surren-
der.
The conduct of his countrymen in relation
to his anputated leg, must be pronounced
brutal and disgnceful, and will long be re-
membered as a cowardly manifestation Of
popular fury. Brantz Mayor, in his interest
ing work on Mexico, gives an account ofthe
burial of this leg. He arrived at tho city
gates Just after sunrise, as they commenced
firing in honor Of the day, which was 10 be
celebrated by the sntombment Of the re-
mains of the shattered limb. The principal
streets were covered with awnings. The
military were out in their fnery, the officers
of Government mingled in the procession,
and the limb of the President, cut off in
1888, afterwards buried at Vera Cruz, was
disinterrsd and brought TO the Capital in
lS42, laid in crystal vase, borne to the CEN.
etery of Santa Paula, where it was deposit
ed in a monument erected to receive it by
the command of the General of the Mexi-
can army. A solemn eulogum on the Pre-
sident was then pronounced by dstingu-
ished Mexican, and the ceremonies in hon
or of the precious relic were concluded.
What contrast have recent events pre-
sented! The leg has been torn from its
place ofreposs, and kicked about the Streets
A statue Of Santa Anna, which had been
placed on beautiful column, has been
thrown down and trampled upon!
