now be made, and it was mutually agreed
by the two men, that, as it could not be de-
prived of a mothers care, the first hus-
band should take it with the other children,
to be restored to the father at some future
time. The reunited family now made
preparations to 60 to a new home ; and SO
great was the interest excited in the neigh
borhood BY this singular affair, that as many
as one hundred and fifty persons from the
neighborhood were present to witness their
departure. On Saturday last they came
up in the packet Louisiana, on their way to
Michigan, where they will take up their
residence.
We naturally ~sympathize with the FIRST
husband, to whom wife and children are
restored, but who will not feel for the be-
reavement of the second?

Keep one kind thought for me.

In after years when you recall
The days Of pleasure past,
And think of joyous hours, that all,
Have flown away too fast.
If some forgotten air you hear,
Brings back past scenes to thee;
And sadly charms the listening ear,
Keep n kind thought for me.
In fairer scenes, midst brighter skies,
Perchancs you still may roam;
Then let your fond heart warmly prize
The dear old friends at home. IL
And mid thy pleasure, should a sigh,
Unheeded fall from thee;
While the bright tear-drop seals thine eye
Keep one kind thought for me.

OUR TRUE POLICY,

We ought to proht by the experience of
England. And we should do so, if our
merchants were more like statesmen, look-
ing forward to national interest through
generations, and less like shop-keepers,
considering only the bargain before them
aud if our politicians also were more like
statesmen, regarding nations as the growt
of ages, and less like partisans, intent only
ON the next election, and their own per-
|sdhal benefit involved in it. The majority
of our public servants, and nearly, if not
exclusively all our partisan editors, are
ship-keepers in politics. They look not
beyond the gain Of the present bargain, the
business of the day. England grew rich
on the suicidal system Of monopoly through
force, through restraint at home and con-
quest abroad As this system, like every
other system of slavery, contains the seed
Of its OWE dissolution, exhausts its own Vi
tally, England has become poor. She has
lived like a drunkard, who derives unusual
strength and activity from his dram, but
who exhausts himself prematurely by the
process. She has begun to run down, and
will 90 rapidly, till she reaches the lowest
depths consistent with her natural elements
of prosperity. She will then sign the pledge,
begin again on a small scale, live soberly,
and thrive moderately. The sceptre will
depart from Judah, though not from the
chosen people. The power of the Anglo.
Saxon, will be transferred from the British
Islands, to the United States and Austral
Asia.
England has begun to run down, because
she rose on an articfcial system. She be-
came great in manufactures, without pro-
ducing raw materials. She transferred
people from the soil to the workshop, and
monopolized land, for the luxury Of the arts.

WIVES AND CARPETS.

The Chieago journal thus lsarnsdl.
philosophises on these tsenss. There iss
large streak of sense IN the reflections:

There is a good deal Of true philosophy
in this that will apply to matters widely diff

the great green carpet Of Gfe--in other
words, makes much display. The attrsc-
|tions fade out-the web Of life becomes
worn and weak, and all the gay figures that
seemed so charming at first, disappear like
summer flowers in autumn.
Many a man has made fiimsy linsey-
woolsey, of himself by striving to weave
too large a figure, and himself worn ct,
used up, and, like an old carpet hanging
on the fence, before he has lived out hek
his allotted days Of usefulness.
Many a man wears out like a carpet that
lie never swept-by the dust Of incidence
like that carpeth he needs shaking or whip.
ping, he needs activity, something to think
Of, something to do. ,
Look out, then, for the large figures; and
there are those now slowed away in the
garret Of the world, awaiting their final
consignment to the cellar, who, had they
.practicsd this bit of carpet philosophy,
would to-day be firm and bright as Brus-
sells fresh from the loom, and everybody ex-
claiming, sit is wonderful how they do

- No one could form an idea without
travelling the country, of the number Of
acres of wheat that is put in this year.
There will be a hundred to one, compared
to last year. Almost every acre Of cleared
ground will be pu' in wheatthis fall in Cole
county. The experience Of the last year
affords ample proof, that this region about
here, is admirably adapted to the growing
of wheat, for which there is now a fair de-

ANECDOTE OF DUMAS.

4. little anecdote is going the rounds, that

THE HUMAN MIND.

This world is what we make it. Its joys
or its sorrows, its miseries, are, in one
sense, but the reflection of ourselves. 1t
is the mind within US that stamps the char
acter on all around us. Whatever feelings,
disposition, temper, thoughts, 60 out from
our w minds, come back again in some
form or other magni6ed and intensified
If we live at peace with ourselves and in
charity with all mankind, all the universe
Of things will appear to be exactly adapted
to our wants and wishes. II we are at en-
nifty with God or at variance with man, all
things apparently conspire to render Us
"evil for evil" Such is the constitution Of
things as established by infinite wisdom
To the we'll ordered mind, all is order, har-
mony, and propriety; to the unbalanced OF
.distempered Imagination, all is confusion,
'discord, and arrangement. To make the
world what it should be, we have only to
make ourselves what we oughtsto be. No
man with a right mind, ever declared the
world to be wrong. 49, s
Wordsworth caught glimpse Of the prin-
ciple We are considering, when he sx.
claimed:
Oh! It's the HEART that magnifes this life:
Making a truth and beauty Of its Owl.
Tasso, too, has beautifully illustrated the
same sentiment: -
Oh confidence divine! the good and just
Who still on Heaven respose their pious trust,
New laws for altering seasons can create,
And thwart the stars malign, and conquer fate,
