The TWO TARTFFs-LET FAcTs SPEAK.-The DIFF
ference between the journals of the federal and the
democratic party the present day is this that the
former rest satisfied with making mere abstract argu
ment, unsound in point of political philosophy, and
unsupported by existing facts; while the latter look
to things they are, and judge of them from their
practical results. This is the test which we desire
the community put the tariffs of 1S42 and 1876
We ask our readers TO look at the following table:
Statement of domestic erporSts during the year 1876

ALBERT GAILATIN

There are still those who would sell the
birth-right of our nations glory for a mess of
official pottage, and speak irreverently Of age,
grown grey in the service of the country. We
cannot conceive how any American, with his
heart in the right place, could treat with ridi-
cule and insult this venerable man, because in
his 6Sth year he sees proper to raise warn
ing voice against the rapacous projects of the al
minstration. Look at his career, and say if such
a man can be other than patriot lie reached
this country when barely of mans estate, in
1880, and Immediately joined and contributed
to the support Of volunteer company in the
Revolutionary war. Our independence ach-
eved, he was appointed Professor in IIar-
ward Ueiversity, but subsequently removed TO
this State, which he represented in the Legis-
ature and Congress, and was elected to the T.
nited States Senate, but declared ineligible,
rs he only became a citizen in 1885. From
Congress, he was transferred to the cabinet Of
Thomas Jefferson in 1901, and remained his
Troa NY head and bosom friend during the
entire eight years of the in uInbency OF the
father of democracy
james Madison, succeeding, still retained
his services. until in his second term the com
mission Of Client was decided upon, when Mr..
Gallatin resigned, and negotiated the treaty of
peace in conjunction with Henry Clay and
John Quincy Adams. Upon his return home,
further honors were sliowcrcd upon him, and
he was nominated as the candidate for Vice
President on the same ticket with MIR. Craw-
ford as President, as the regular democratic
republican nominees. Durimgthe Presidency
OF John Quincy Adams, he was sent Minister
England, and on his return retired to pi ate iic
If67 years of devotion and usefulness to a
country are to be forgotten now, where is the
incentive Of future exertions? II a life of hon
or is in its "sere and yellow leaf" to he tho
scott and witlings and the butt of demagogues,
where is virtue 10 seek its reward, and where
is young manhood to look for the beacon light
to guide it in the path Of duty? Revered is
age at all times; but now surprisingly lovely
and revered when it is crowned by the halo
which emanates from life passed in public
usefulness and deyotedness to country.

THE OLD MAN ELoQUENT-The Wash
ington correspondent Of the n. Y. Mirror,
speaks thus of John Quincy Adams as he ap-
pears at present in Congress:
lh. Adams was already in his scat to-day,
notwithstanding the violence of the storm but
every warm tint of life has vanished from his
venerable face, and a palcness of complexion,
almost luminous, betokens his near approach
to a brighter and better world. In gazing
upon him as he quietly sat there among the 70
bust and busting throng, with his keene eyes
still sparkling ike diamonds in the snow, one
loses for a moment, all particular remembran-
ceS of the man, in silent reverence for the de-
voted patriot and sage, who, full of years and
honors perseveres in the service fhis country TO
the very threshold of eternity. His intellect
remains clear and vigorous, and his interest in
public affairs increases with his ebbing sands,
which already seem to be so low in the glass
that the slightest shake would exhaust the last
golden grain of mortal life.-There is a sanctity
in the presence of one so venerable in wisdom
andin his years, as he aPproches-
"The shore of that immortal sea
Which brought US thither''
chat should soften the language of his political
enemies into tones of the most respectful ten
derness and reverence.

NUMBER So.

OF guilt, pointing to the paths leading to pit
falls and sin?
These are questions which are full of mean
ing at the present day. Ask the history of
nations, who have been swallowed up in the
vortex OF rum, 'whether they did not reap what
they sowed? 1t seems to me that there is a
nigh light coming down upon us from the his
tory OF ages, and that the lesson it teaches and
the truth 1t expresses, arc contained in the
word retr1bntion- If we escape from the E.
wis which have fallen upon all nations, which
nave been engaged in slavery and war, then
we will be an exception, and it will be the first.
would ask those who are now writing history,
to turn back to the days when was sung the
song OF Jubllee-when the first dawn of God
ana Savior broke upon the gaze of man
and let them tell US whether any nation that
sowed slavery and war ever reaped anything
but rum and shame. Shall we, sir, find peace
and prosperity in following that course, where

AxECDoTE OF STEPHEN GRARD.

AN FL III l. OI 1 lA4--A NAh-AANAS-
The following capital anecdote, illustrative of
the peculiaritics of the late Stephen Girard OF
Philadelphia, is from the New Bedford Bulletin
We have not seen it published before:
Mr. G. had a favorite clerk. one who every way
pleased him, and who At the age of twenty-one
years. expected Mr. C. TO say something TO him
in regard TO his future prospects, and, perhaps
lend him a helping hand in starting him in the
world But Mr. G. said nothing, carefully avoid
ing the subject Of his escape from minority. AT
length, after the lapse Of some weeks, the clerk
mustered courage enough to address Mr.. u. upon
the subject.
i suppose.n said the clerk, u am now free
and l thought l would say something you rs to
my future course. What do You think had bet
Ter do q"
Yes, I know You are free said Mr.. G., "and
my advice to YOU is, that you go and learn the
coopeT's trade
This announcement well nigh threw the clerk
Off the track but recovering his equilibrium, he
said if Mr.. &. was in earnest, he would do so.
a am in earnest" said Mr.. G.; and the clerk
rather hestatinglv, one of the best coopers
agreed upon the terms ofapprenticeShip, and went
at it in earnest In process OF time, the young
cooper became master of his trade and could
make as good a barrel as any other cooper. He
went and told Mr. G. that he had graduated with
all the honors of the tand was ready to set up
his business: at which the old man seemed much
gratifed and told him to make three of the best
barrels he could getup. The Young cooper Sc
lected the choicest materials, and soon put in
shape and finished his three barrels, and wheeled
them up TO the old mans counting ROOM Mr.. G.
said the barrels were first rate, and demanded the
price.
Zone dollar, said the clerk. is as low as can
live by.
"Cheap enough said his employer; make out
your bill and present it
And now comes the cream of the whole. Mr.
G. drew n check for 10000 dollars, and handed it
to the clerk-cooper, closed with these words
There take that, and invest it in the best pos
sible way, and if You are unfortunate and lose it,
You have good trade TO fall back upon which
will afford YOU good living at all times"

The WASTE OF WAR The New Orleans
Bulletin states that the rife regiment which
landed in Mexico 700 strong, is now reduced
to only 25O men fit for service. The voltigeur
Regiment, under Col. Andrews, landed $50,
of whom 28O can now be mustered. The South

OF 900, is almost destroyed, and can mus

THE SONG OF LABOR.

BIZ J. C. WHITTIER.
Heap high the farmers wintry boardl
Heap high the golden corn!
No richer gift has Autumn poured
From out her lavish horn
We better love the hardy gift
Our rugged wales bcstow,
To cheer us when the storms shall drift
Our harvest fields with snow.
When spring time came with flower and bud,
And grasses green and young,
And merry Boblinks, in the wood,
Like mad musicians sung.
We dropped the seed DER hill and plain
Beneath the sun of May,
And frightened from our sprouiing grain
The rubber crows away.
Al through the long. bright days of June
Its leaves grew green and fair,
And waved in hot midsrmmcrs noon
It's soft and yellow hair
And now with Autumns moOnlit ewes,
It's harvest time has come,
We pluck away the frosted leaves
And bear the treasure home.
There. richer than the failed gifts
OF golden showers Of old,
Fair hands the broken grain shall sift,
And knead is meal Of gold.
Let vapid oilers loll in silk
Around their costly board,
Give us the bowl of samp and milk
By home-spun beauty poured.
Whcrcer the wide old kitchen hearth
Sends up its smoky curle,
Who will not thank the kindly heart,
And bless our corn-fed girls!
Then shame on all the proud and vain
Whose folly laughs to scorn
The blessing of the Yankees grain,
His wealth Of golden corn.
Let earth Withhold her good!y root,
Let mildew blight the rye
Give to the worm the orchards fruit,
The wheat-fe!d to the fly
But let the good old crop aiorn
The kills or father trod;
sill let us FIR HI; Golden com
Send up our thanks to God!

Peach Trees.

that The shortening mode of pruning and
the use of ashes, will drive that most ia.

out Of the country. if cultivators can be
brought to estimate their joint value.
He uses wood ashes; either leached or
unleached-half peck Of the former, or
halfa bushel ofthe unIeached, for young
tree just beginning to bear The best
time for applying it is in October, but it
has been found to answer admirably as
late as June. 1t is best to prune the
peach early, but the writer has seen no
bad effect from shortening in as late as
