In the Enquirer Of The Isl insr. there appeared
an essay over The signature OF "a Democrat, IN

mocrals, here ant there, in the Albemarle ana

By Them for aught that has come 10 light, was

far as the public knows any Thing about II, was

was first sounded in the ears Of the intelligent vo-
ters they were both asIounded and mortified that
their defeat should have been effected by the pIo-
neers, as they thought, OF their own party. NO
thing would please the Democrats more than That
those gentlemen should fully and satisfactorily
yindicate themselves, both as il regards The slaoi

LAZY PEoPLE.-Thanks to Heaven and our
ancestors, and to all others who had any hand in
making us what we are, thanks to them, one and
all, that we were not born lazy. Laziness has
been the parent of all the sins that have been
committed since the morning of the creation.-
Eve was in lazy fit at the time Satan tempted
her. if Adam had kept her busy she would have
kept out of mischief, and we should all have
been as innocent as young lambkns. If the an
ti-deluvians had commenced building arks when
Noah preached to them, they might all have been
saved; but they were too lazy to work and so
they were all drowned in the great aquacious ca
tastrophe. The reason the Egyptians refused to
let the Israelites go, was because they were too
lazy to make their own bricks, and wished to
compel the Hebrews to do that work for them
The consequence is known; they were plagued
grievously; and afterwards thrown into the Red
Sea. Lazy people, in our own days, are con-
stantly plaguing themselves, and are an everlast-
ing plague and eyesore to others. The sight of
creeping, listess, indoent man or woman, is
misery to the thrifty and industrious.

A Chanter to Youth,

We respect and love kind and accommoda-
ting youth, We would go mile out of our
way to do him favor, and deny Ourself not
little for the sake of pleasing and gratifying him.
Such youth there are. Ask them a question and
they will give courteous reply. Request of
them small kindness, and they are ready to
grant it. You hear no murmurng from their
lips-see no grouty looks-and never find them
among those who insult their elders, or use coarse,
profane and undigniied language. Such youth
would always gam the respect and confidence Of
men, wherever they are found-in the novels of
poverty or beneath the roof OF weath-behnd
the counter or at the desk-driying horse wag-
on, or at the case.
All youth are not of this description. What
a contrast between those we have described and
young men who will never give a civil answer,
or rise from their seats to do you favor. If you
wish to make any inquiries of such, you get an
evasive answer, or what is worse an mpudent
reply. Request the change of bill, and with
out looking into their money draws, they will
say at once, 4 can't do it, If they drive team
and you request them to do job, they will grum-
bic about it, if they are obliged to 90 a few rods
farther than they expected, or the load is few
pounds heavier Such are the youth who never
Sdln Ille lONc vi ItopCCC vi othclS' NlCI anu
women avoid them. Rather than ask them a
question Or solicit favor, they pass on to a kind
and pleasant youth,
Boys, suffer word of advice. Always be
pleasant and accommodating Many youth
has made his fortune by possessing a kind and
cheerful disposition. If you have naturally a
morose temper, don't suffer it to get the ascen-
dency; but the more diligently cultivate kind at-
fections and pleasant feelings. Make it a point
to give every body, whether old or young rich or
poor, civil answer Mind not little incon-
yenience, or little sacrifice of time, if you can
thereby do favor for another. Little kindness
es are never lost or forgotten. We have our
mind on many youth that we respect and love
on account of his uniformly pleasant disposition
and agreeable manners. Others feel the same.
As such grow up to manhood, they will not lack
friends. They are working their way to respect
ability and usefulness. May it be thus said of
you! Then be always kind and accommodating,
and give every body a pleasant answer to the
questions put to you.-Potland Tribune.

From The Washington (Pd.j Patriot
Southern FinCSSo,

The government of the United States has re-
Gently concluded a treaty of commerce with the
Kingdom of Hanover, in Germany, and the trea-
ty is extolled by the northern press, as one high
ly advantageous to the United States.
This treaty provides that the productions of the
United States shall be admitted into the Kingdom
of Hanover on terms as, favorable as those eX-
tended to any other nation and then provides
speciaHv, that Tobacco Rice, and Cotton, COM
inc from the United States, shall never be taxed
over certain very low rate. Cotton is to be adj
mitted free of duty, Tobacco is to be relieved of
all transit duties, and to pay no higher import
duty than rs cts. per cwt., and Rice is to be adj
mitted under privileges not accorded to the Rice
of other counties.-The other Kingdoms of Ger
many are authorised to become parties to the
treaty, and it is said that most of them will do
so.-The effect, therefore, of this special provi-
sion, is to give to the shareholders of the South
the monopoly of the German market for their
products
But the free farmers of the north are to enjoy
no such advantages. They must compete with
this whole world, while the Shareholders can meet
with with no competition The Grain, Flour,
Meat, Lumber and other productions of the

HIGHER.-A noble motto for yonng man
Higher Never look down. Aim high-push
high-leap high. Ifyou cannot reach the stars,
YOU can have the satisfaction of drawing ne ar to
them. He who stands on an elevated position
is sure to catch the first rays of the glorious sun
SO he who is always stepping up and reaching up,
will first catch the favors and blessings of Heav-
en- as they descend. There is no object on which
we gaze that gives us so much pleasure as the
upward and continued progress in the moral cul-
ture and robust virtue in enterprisng young men.
When the chains of sloth are broken, the vision
is clear-the heart buoyant, and the affections
and purposes strong, higher and higher objects
will be gained-nobler purposes be achieved and
sublime elevation attained that will thrill with
Joy future generations as they march on in the
same glorious path.-PortIand Tribune.

Your sister, what has become of her and that

Your sister, what has become of her ; and that
baby brother
Oh sir, my brother has grown up to be a
young man and now clerk, and first book-keep-
er in my store, and he too has large class in
the Sabbath school, and my dear sister is far a
way, the companion of devoted missionary at
the West she was married a few months previ-
GUS to mothers death
Here must leave the history of this interest
ing family, and in few words hint at the lesson
it teaches.
l. See how God always confers his blessings
on those children who love their parents Little
George cared not for the shoes for his cold feet
and warm cap for his head until his poor moth
er could have food.
And through that little boy, God came in mer-
cy to that family. George early became a
Christian, and was the humble instrument of the
conversation of his mother and sister The
mother is permitted the privilege Of dying in the
glorious prospect of heaven, and sinking down to
the grave sustained by the arms of her noble
boy The sister goes out to be the companion
of the missionary, to aid in spreading the glad
news of salvation to the poor and perishing.
2. What encouragement there is in this histo-
ny of facts for teachers to labor for the poor and
destitute sons and daughters of affection and
poverty. God selects some of his brightest Jew.
els from the depths of poverty, and makes them
shine as stars Of the first magnitude in Savior's
crown.
Dear teachers, remember the poor Do no
pass them by care for them, and God will re-
ward you an hundred fold
3. The benefits of Sabbath school instruction
are not confined merely to the things of Time
they reach into Eternity-and roll wave of go
ry up to the very Throne of the great God.
Oh let us be faithful, industrious, prayerful
and devoted to our work a little longer-and soor
we shall go home to our reward and our crown.
