"SeE Waiting Dinner TdbLe."-This
is the title of an invention by Mr.. Lamb,
of Howard county, Indiana, which is thus
described BY the State Journal:
"The table is circular in form, and 50
arranged that the portion on which the
various dishes are set rsvolve slowly around,
so that you can help yourself to whatever
you wish without calling for the aid Of a
servant or any one else. 1t is a very indie
pendent way Of eating, and may come into
general use at taverns and boarding houses.
In the centre of the table, a fan and fly
brush is so arranged, as to pass round that
Of the table containing the dishes,
with such rapidity as to drive off ell the
flies, and to keep up a fine circulation Of
air. In a hot day, this part Of the concern
would be very comfortable.

NIGHT.

The sun has set. and night is fast throw
ink her sable pail over the earth. The
stars have come forth, and seem to glisten
from a frosty armament. What a lovely
scene! whst q subject they present for q
contemplative mind! Thus they have
shoue without diminution or change from
the dawn Of creation down to the present
time. Those that have gone before US,
and have slept In their graves for thousands
Of years, have gazed upon them and seen
them as we behold them now. Time has
swept bis millions into eternity: seasons
have come and gone; empires have risen
and fallen, thrones and dominions have
ceased to be, mighty nations have passed
away; proud and magnificent cities have
crumbled 60 decay; yet still they shine on
with undiminished lustre. Who can look
upon these cleaning orbs, and pronounce
them the offspring Of blind fatality, the
Tssultanta of meaningless chance? who
can behold their brightness, and not feel
and realize the presence Of a Deity? does
not their unfading brilliancy proclaim in
tones extensive as the universe-tones not
to be Observation-Disclosures their Creator

No PARTY ADMINIsTRArIoN.-The fol-
lowing resolution was recently passed by
the Democratic Convention Of Connect
cut:
RESOLVED, That the present administra-
ton has earned its self-imposed title Of
"no-party;" by enjoying the confidence Of
"no. party;'' that its only marked and efici-
|ent policy has been that Of turning Dem
|ocra.s out of Office in violation Of its vol
'untary plsdges-that the recent elections
throughout the Union have given it its
desth-blow; that "~no-party" has not skill
enough to lift it from its psralytic condi-
ton, and that "no-party" will mourn its ap-
preaching dissolution.

THE N OF LABOR.

A late writer has revealed a wholesome
truth in the following short paragraph
All toll is honorable, and the degree ofhon.
or only varies with the usefulness of the
pursuit. Far better is it to educate a
youth well, in even what is deemed the
Ihumblest pursuit, than to turn him into the
!chsnnels of labor, where q little show OF
refinement is but too often purchased by
the sacrifice Of manly independence:
"The young man who leaves the corn
field for the merchants desk, or the law
yer's OF the doctors Office, thinking to en-
noble his toll, makes a sad mistake. he
passes along and steps from independence
to vassslage, He barters a natural for an
artificial profession, and he must be the
slave of the caprice Of customers, and the
chicane of trade either to support himself
or to acquire fortune. The more artificial
a mans pursuit, the more debasing is 1t
morally and physically. To test it, con-
trast the merchants clerk with the plough
boy. The former may have more external
polish, but the latter, under his rough out
side, possesses the true stamina. He is q
freer, franksr, happier, and nobler man.
Would that young man might judge OF the
dignity of labor more by its usefulness
and msnliness than by the superficial gloss
IL wears. Therefore, we never see a mans
nobility in his kid gloves, nor in his toilet
|adornments, but rather in that sinewy arm,
whose outlines, Drowned BY the sun, beto-
ken q hardy and honest toiler, under whose
farmers or mechanics vest q kindly heart
may beat"
