Louisville Exam nCr.

While the political press Of Louisville is greet
ing the Examiner in the most friendly terms, one
paper there has invoked mob for its destruc-
ton. This is the Baptist Banner, edited by the
Rev. W. G, Buck, who says:
"Tho Examiner is, we take it, the True
American revived; and we mistake the spirit OF
our citizens, if they will encourage an ayowed
and notorious Abolitonst Of neighboring city
to come here or to remain in Cincinnati, where
he now resides, and throw frebrands into this
community"
The Cincinnati Times, political paper, thus
refers to his reverend neighbor:
owe can see no use in keeping open courts
of Justice, to punish rot and blood shed, when
the organ Of religious society thus indirectly
calls upon the mob to commit outrages both
against religion and law"
We hope the newspapers will pass the name
Of this Reverend w. G. BUCK around. To
the honor Of kentucky be it said, that among
all our political exchanges from that state, we
have seen nothing of Mr.. Buck in them.
The Examiner grows better and better. We
are glad to see that the National Ant-Slavery
Standard and the Pennsylvania Freeman, which
we're filed with righteous adherence at the dis
Greet Era, are Astounding in praise Of the still
more discreet Examiner--NotiondiE Era.

A Beautiful Incident

On beautiful summer day, clergyman was
called to preach in town of Indiana, to a young
Episcopal congregations At the close of the dis
course he addressed his hearers in such words as
these:
Learn that the present life is a preparation
for, and has tendency to eternity, The pres
ent is linked to the future throughout creation,
in the vegetable, in the animal, and in the NOR
al world As is the seed SO is the fruit; as is the
egg, so is the fowl as is the boy, so is the man;
and as is the rational being in this world, so will
be be in the next Dives estrangcd from God
here, is Dives estranged from God in the next;
and Enoch walking with God here, is Enoch
walking with God in clam and better world
bcseech you, live then on blessed eternity
Go to the worm You tread upon, and learn a les
son of wisdom. The very caterpillar seeks the
food that fosters it for another and dissimiar
state, and more wisely than man, builds her own
sepuchrc from which, in time, by kind of res
surrecton, it comes forth a new creature in al
most angelic form. And now that which crawl
ed, flies, and that which fed on comparatively
gross food, sips the dew and reves in the rich
pastures--an emblem of that paradise where
flows the river Of life. Could the Caterpillar
have been diverted from its proper aliment and
model of life, it had never attained the butter
hys splendid form and hue; it had persisted a
worthless. Consider her ways and be wise
Let it not be said that ye are morencgligent than
worms, and that your reason is less available
than their instinct, As often as the butterfly
flies across your path, remember it whispers in
its flight, Live for the future With this the
pastor closed his discourse; but to deepen the
impression, butterfly, directed by the Hand
which guides alike the sun and an atom in its
course, futtered through the Church as if com
missoned by Heaven 10 repeat the cxhortation
There was neither Speech nor language, but its
voice was heard saying to the gazing audience
Live for the Future

Marriage,

Deceive not one another in small things, nor
in great. One little lie has, before now, disturb
cd whole married life, A small cause has often
great consequences Fold not the arms together
ana sit -"Lazincss is the devils cushion"
Do not run much from home. Ones own health
is of more worth than gold. Many marriage
begins like the rosy morning, and then falls away
like snow-wreath. And why! Because the
married pair neglect to be as well pleased to
each other after marriage as before. Endcayor
always to please one another; but at the same
time keep God in your thoughts. Lavish not all
your love on to-day, for remember that marriage
has its day-after-to-morrow too! "Spare," as
one may say, "tueI for the winter Consider,
my daughters, what the word "witc' expresses,
The married woman is the husbands domestic
faith; in her hand he must be able to conlide
both house and family; be able to entrust her
with the key of his heart, as well as the key of
his house. His honor and home are under her
keeping; his well being is in her hand, Think
of this And you, sons, be faithful husbands, and
good fathers of families. Act so that your wives

the tops may be cut off below the first rooted
Joint, and planted two or three inches apart in

Choosing a Minister,

The people in one of the out parishes in Vir-
ginia wrote to DR.. Rice, who was then at the
head of the Theological Seminary in Prince
Edward, for minister They said they want
ed a man Of the first talents, for they had run
down considerably, and needed building up
They wanted one who could write well, for some
of the young people were very nice about that
matter, They wanted one who would visit a
good deal, for their former minister had neglect
ed that, and they wanted to bring it up. They
wanted man of very gentemanly department,
for some thought good deal of that. And 50
they went on describing perfect minister. The
last thing they mentioned was, they gave their
minister three hundred and fifty dollars--but if
the Doctor would send them such man as they
described, they would raise another fifty dollars,
making it four hundred dollars. The Doctor
sat down and wrote reply, telling them they
had better forthwith make out call for old DR.
Dwight in heaven, for he did not know of any
one in this world who answered this description
And as DR.. Dwight had been living SO long OIL
spiritual food, that he might not need so much
Tor the body, he possibly might live on four hun
bred dollars!

Exhaustion of Talk,

How long the lamp Of conversation holds out
to burn, between two persons only, is curiously
set down in the following passage from Count
Gonfaloneres account of his imprisonment:
Il am an old man, now; yet, by fifteen years
my soul is younger than my body! Fifteen years
existed, for | did not liye-it was not lifc--n
the sell-same dungeon, ten feet square During
six of those years | had companion. during
nine | was alone! | never could rightly distng-
uish the face of him who shared my captivity in
the eternal twilight of our cell, The first year
we talked necessarily together; we related our
past lives, our joys forever gone, over and over
again, The next we communicated to each
other our thoughts and ideas ON all subjects
The third year, we had no ideas to communicate
we were beginning to lose the power Of rehec-
toni The fourth, at the interval Of a month or
50, we could open our lips to ask each other if it
were indeed possible that the world still went on
as gay and busting as when we formed portion
of mankind. The fifth we were silent The
SIXTH he was taken away never knew where
to execution or to liberty; but was glad when
he was gone; even solitude was better than the
dim vision of that pale, vacant face! After that
| was alone Only one event broke in upon my
nine years vacancy One day, it must have beer
a year or two after my companion left me, the
dungeon door was opened, and a voice-whencC
proceeding | knew not-uuered these Words
by order Of his imperial majesty | intimate t
you, that your wife died year ago Then the
door was shut, and heard no more; they hat
but flung this great agony in upon me, and lief

Sadness,

There is a mysterious feeling that frequently
passes like a cloud over the spirits. 1t comes
upon the soul in the busy hustle of life,
and to the social circle, in the calm and ST.
lent retreat of solitude Its powers are alike
supreme DER the weak and iron-hcarted. AT one
time it is caused by the fitting of single thot
across the mind. sound will come booming
over the ocean of memory gloomy and solemn
as the death IlneII, overshadowing all the bright
hopes and sunny feelings Of the heart Who can
desire it, and yet who has not felt its bewjder-
ing influence! Still it is delicious sort Of sor-
row and like cloud dimming the sunshine on
the river, always causing a momcntary shade CT
gloom, it enhances the beauty Of returning
brightness.

Speaking i'll Of a Neighbour

Never place confidence in person who makes
it practice to run down his neighbor and his
neig hbors goods because he is in the same line
of business There are those who are 50 dosti-
mte of neral principle-so mean and selfish,
that they cannot endure the thought Of the pros
perity of their neighbors, and when they arc out
of certain articles, which they know their neigh
bors have in abundance, they do net hesitate to
tell the purchaser he cannot obtain in the city
what he is in pursuit Of. Such course may
answer for the time being, but it eventually re-
suits to the injury of the liar When the char
actcr fsuch are found out, their customers gra-
dually leave them, believing that, if they lie in
one case they will in another-and not only lie
but cheat also. The most dangerous men to
deal with, are those of this description You
never hear the truly upright man speak i'll Of an
other With double dealing and discrimination
he is stranger-P~tiu'd Tribune.

Forgiveness,

My heart was heavy, for its trust had been
Abused, its kindness answered with foul wrong;
50, turning goon;ly from my fellow men,
One summer Sabbath day strolled among
The green mounds ofthe village burial place;
Where, bordering how all human love and hate
Find one sad level-and how, soon or late
Wronged and wrong-doer each with meekened fac
And cold hands folded over still heart,
Pass the green threshold ofour common grave,
Whittier all footsteps tend, whence none depart,
Awod for myself, and plying my race,
Our common sorrow, like mighty wave,
Swept lmy pride away, and trembling forgavo.

Convention of Fruit Growers in Vermont

Through the Cutivator | would propose to the
farmers, gardeners, orchardSts, nurserymcn and
all connoisseurs of good fruit residents of Yer
mont, that they meet i'll convention called for the
purpose Of encouraging the cultivation and dis
tributng the best native fruit of our State, and
all Foreign approved varieties,
Let them assemble at the most convenient time
and place aud compare the merits of our best
native apples, and all such other fruit deemed
worthy of encouragement Fix on list of such
as are found to be the most valuable for general
cultivation, exhibiting not only our native varie-
ties, but those valuable kinds introduced from
foreign countries, Also to collect and dissent
nate the best information on the cultivation, and
preservation Of fruits and the orchard. Let all
the yeomanry Of the State come together, either
personally or by town and county delegation
those who are interested in rearing or eating
choice fruit for the purpose of interchanging
their views, and make liberal exhibition of such
fruits as are worthy Of encouragement
There is no State in the Union that produces
so much value from the orchard according to its
size or population, as Vermont. We have thous-
ands Of native appIe-trees now in bearing state
from this innumcrabIe list choice ofsccdling
fruit may be selected worthy Of cultivation, many
Of which will become extinct or let our genera
ton pass off, before they are generally introduced.
Inotice in the Maine Farmer that society
has been formed at Augusta for the purpose of
encouraging the cultivation Of good fruits-that
an exhibition Of many new and choice kinds
were upon the ground. This society will un-
doubledIy render that state and the world very
essential service
| would suggest and recommend that those
friendly to the cause, meet at the Capital of our
State, while the Legislature is in session, for the
purpose of forming Pathological Society, and
make an exhibition Of fruits, Those approving
let them express their views through the Cultira-
tor, or any other chanuel which they may choose.
| hope those who are most spirited and and in
terested in growing fruit, and approve of the
measure, will fix upon time and place.
For many years we have not paid that atten-
ton to orcharding which the subject Demands
Home consumption is sufficient protection and
encouragement for the present, but we may soon
expect to have foreign markets opened to us at
the east and south by railway, which will COM
mand our surplus at remuueratng prices.
