From the Blue Hens Chickens, (Delaware.)
Thn North and South,

BY a list of appointments made by the President
since the Adjournment of Congress it appears that forty
one captains are from the slave States to fifteen from
the free; twenty three first lieutenants from slave
States to eight from the free; fifty seven second lieu
tenants from the slave States to thirty two from the
free"
We clip the above from the Westchester Register
and Examiner, and we commend it to the consdera-
ton of the lrecmen of the north and the Blue Hens
chickens Of Delaware. The population Of the free
States is much greater than that of the slave States,
and yet the appointments are nearly three to one from
the slave States. Are the people of the slave States
all office seekers Or is the government partial 10 8dUe-
|r& Where is the man with patriotic heart in his
bosom who will not 90 for Lberty-for the Wilmot
proviso-to prevent the extension of the curse and
blight of slavery? Let every Delawarcan who loves
liberty give praise to John NJ. Clayton and Hon. w.
Houston for voting against the extension of this clre-
ul curse We will not disturb domctic Institutions but
we go against the extension Of the blight OF slavery
as we would against the extension of the cholera or
plague. The former is much the worst, because the
more lasting evil.

SalnrdlY Nighl,

How many associations, sweet and halloWed,
crowd around that short sentence, saturday
night" 1t is indeed, but a prelude to more
pure, more heavenly associations, which the tir-
ed frame, and thankful soul, hail with a renewed
Joy at each succeeding return 1t IS then the
busy din of life ceases; that cares and anXetes
are forgotten; that the worn out frame seeks its
needed repose, and the mind its relaxation from
earth and its concern; with joy looking fer the
coming day of rest, so wisely and benchclally
set apart for mans peace and happiness by his
Creator.
The tired laborer seeks his own cottage, to
which perhaps, he has been a stranger the past
week, where loving wife and smiling children
meet him with smiles and caresses. Here he
realizes the bliss of hard earned comforts; and
at this time, perhaps more than any other, the
banniness of domestic life and its attendant bless
ings.
Released from the distractng cares of the
week. the professional man beholds the return
of Saturday night, and as gladly seeks the clus
terinp vines nourished by his paternal care, thu
reality of those Joys which are only his own t'
know at those peculiar seasons, and under thost
congenial circumstances, so faithfully and vivid
ly evidenced by this periodical scene of enjoy
ment and repose.
! The lone widow, too, has tolled on day aite
day, to support her little charge. How grateful
does she resign her cares at the return OF Satur
day night, and thank her God for these kind rest
ing places on the way, by which she is encoura
ged from week to week TO hold on her way.

Fourth Of july in Mexico.

Word is given out that Scott and Taylor, with
their rcnegades, are to celebrate the next Fourth
Of July, in the City of Mexico. There is sonic
thing peculiarly appropriate in this, that the Gre
alton Of one great Republic should be celebrated
in the destruction of another, that American In
dependence should vaunt itself in the extinction
of Mexican liberty, and the planting Of our tree
of nationality be honored by the deraclnltlon Of
theirs. 1t will give the tyrants of the old world
such All awe of sclt-goyernment and make them
respect, not our prowess only, but our sincerity,
since to prove our sympathy with Republican
experiments we will crush the only Republic in
our ncghb0rhood, and second to our own. They
will be cowed too by the moral dignity of our
position, seeing STAKEHOLDER iIhting for the OK
tension of slavery, and victorious over the rude
people who have abolished it, celebrating the adj
vent of liberty in the regions newly conquered
to slavery. 'Hqil Columbi1, grOwiag land,
will be the burden of their cheer, and the reyel-
lers will sing:
Columbia, Columbia, to glory arise,
Half the world, give 'em jessie for the rest
no matter what, the rhyme is "eyes," and cid
Taylor will supply the verb.
As fit accompaniment to their laudltons OF
the liberty and glory OF our great country 'he
slaves of the man-stealing officers should be pre-
sent to shake their letters in full chorus. leash
of blood-hounds, the degraded servants of both
war and slavery, should walk in the midst Of
their procession, and be fed at the altar of some
conquered and paged church with human flesh
as good and fresh as they give the wild dogs OF
the chappare When the Orator of the day
shall close his truthful harrangue, by quoting
the memorable words of Patrick Henry, Give
me liberty or give me death, simultaneous
blow from thousand lashes in the hands OF Z, a
thousand American negro-whippers, should TAU Il,
on the hounds and the slaves, and the band strike
merrlly into Yankee-Doode. =.
Some such display of our national peculiar,
ties would do much to reconcile the conquered
to their fate, since they are poor, bTbarous, UNI
civil people, with no religion worth having, and
no manners worth preserving. A few thousand
dried Indian-scalps would be pleasant memorials
of former magnanimity, and the presence of the
California Mormon Battalion would be desira-
bic, to convince all parties that they didn't war
against religious liberty, but by the help OF an an
excreated plundered and banished sect, fought

A Plel for Robin Red Breasts.
BY A FARMER.


This morning heard, near my window the welcome
note of the robin. 1t was the first time had heard it
this season, and it seemed to me as if he had perched
himself upon tavorte tree, to announce the coming
OF Spring, and to congratulate me upon its approach.
There were several of them, doubtless the family who
were reared in my garden the year previous for it is
well known that unless destroyed they return to the
same spot to build their nests. | cannot express to
you the extent of my delight at this visit. The melo-
dy of trained orchestra is tame compared with the
notes of those early songsers sprang from my bed,
and with the breeze of spring, drank in at the
time the music of this my favolite bird.
After breakfast, the birds all disappeared Doubt
less they had wandered away in search of food Their
songs informed me that it now time for me to be
laying out my work for the coming season. sailed
out, armed with my trec-scrapcr and pruning knife,
and found employment until evening There were
gubs in great abundance at the foot trees prcpar-
ing themselves to attack fruits, leaves and flowers but
my allies the birds, had come, and with their assist
ance | hoped to destroy them. While out upon my
work, however, heard repeated reports of gun and
my heart lorcboded i'll to my friends the robins
On my return in the evening to the house, found
one poor little fellow had returned to the garden only
to die. found him breathing his last under tree on
which, year sine, he was probably reared the life
blood yelling from his heart. lie had been severely
wounded but had strength enough left to fly from his
murderer and to perish near the spot which first behed
his existence. Poor bird He had wandered thou
sands of miles during the winter, never forgetting the
old homestead; had returned once more to renew past
pleasures, and having shouted forth his notes of joy
and gladness, died by the hand of some thoughtess
person who had never been led to reflect upon his val
nc or to appreciate the beauty of his song.
There is something so cruel in the destruction of
the birds at this season. when they should be welcom-
ed by ALL that have thought seriously of endcavorng
to get up public meeting to take measures for their
protection. The law protects them by in1ictng a
penalty for their destruction but there arc few persons
willing to incur the odum of prosecuting offenders.
What we require is that the public should know how
destructive these birds are to the insect tribe in order
to know their value. Even these shooters would pause
perhaps if they knew that every robin they shoot at
this Of the year would, if allowed to live de-
stroy thousands Of the caterpillar tribe, this deferred
them not, then they should know that there is a law
for their protection and that it will be enforced In
conclusion, put in this plea for our favoritc blrd
and we call upon all who enjoy its song or profit by It's
usefulness to join us in endeavoring to save them
from warton destruction Dedham .AmcricGn.

Coon BEHAvoR.-Chdren should remember
that it is in their power, by Coon BEHAVIOR, to
make themselves very much beloved Every
body loves good child, no matter what may be
its situation, or condition in life.
Emily is not handsome; her features are very
plain yet Emily is very attractive and interest
ing little girl because she behaves so prettiIy.
Edward is poor boy. His parents are not
able to dress him in fine clothes, and his Jacket
and trousers are made of coarse cloth; yet eve
rybody thinks well of Edward, for he has the
name of being the best boy in the village.
Sarah is handsome; her cheeks are rosy, and
her hair curls sweetly in her neck-but Sarah
has good many naughty ways, and sometimes
speaks pertly and improperly to her parents and
suPerlors. What beautiful girl Sarah would
be-" the neighbors say, " if she only was pretty
IN her manners"
Now children, while we would not require
that you should be sober and sedatc as your pa
rents, and expect that you will laugh, and play
and sometimes have good lroic, still we wish
you always to aim, whether at home or abroad
at work or at play, to behave properly. How
happy it will make you feel at night to know that
you have behaved well during the day. And
how happy your parents will be to witness good
! elayior.
father who has daughter thirteen years
old, told me, the other day, that he never had oc-
cason to punish her in his life If she ever did
anything wrong, it was only necessary for him
to speak of it, and she would never do so again.
How many who read this, will strive to make
their parents as happy as this father by their
GOOD behavior = IOUDr RC1ncr

GEN. TAYLoR's PKospECTs.-The Washing

Advertiser says
Much has been done of late, towards She
election of Gen Taylor as the next President.
Senator Dixon II. Lewis who is now here, and
will leave town tomorrow for West Point, says,
] understand that it is all sctled-that General
Taylor has come into the views of the South,
and will be the Southern candidate. The South
the Calhoun South, as | have leamed-are
unanimous for Gen. Taylor. Mr.. Cameron has
undertaken to secure Pennsylvania for him, and
will stump it through the State, to effect the OBJ
iect Kentucky is secure for him, as it is said.
In Virginia, eleven newspapers have come out
for Taylor. In Ohio, the Mclean men have de-
cIared for him, in preference to any enc except

Gems of Thought,

Neither a single bad action, nor single bad
habit, ought to condemn man, for he may HIM
self hate the one, and be trying to get rid of the
other all his life.
| would reject the thought that if religion is
not true, there is no difference between mankind
and the brutes The very powers of conceiying
the IDEAS Of religion, makes great and happy
difference.
A man should stand in awe of his preiudiccs.
Prejudice is an opinion or feeling not for which
there is no reason, but for which we can render
none The feeling or conviction oftruth is one;
the power Of vindicating t, another. Most of
our opinions are mixture Of reason and pref
udice
Men soon acquire talents for offices of trust
and Importance; the difficulty is torisc to a high
station not to fill it.
The measure Of mans virtue is what he
would do, if he had neither the laws, nor public
opinion, nor even his own prejudices to restrain
him,-HaeHHS Essays.
