WHAT Is DIRT?-Old DR.. Cooper, OF
South Carolina, used TO say to his studen's:
.Dont be afraid of little dirt, young
gentlemen. What is dirt? Why nothing
at all offensive, when chimically viewed.
Rub little alkali upon that dirty grease
spot on your coat, and it undergoes
chemical change and becomes soap. Now
rub it with a little water and 1t dlsap-
pears; it is neither grease, soap, water
nor dirt. That is not a very odorous pile
of dirt you observe there. Well. scatter
little gypsum over it and it is no longer
dirty. Everything you call dirt is worthy
your notice as students of chemistry.
Analyze it! Analyze it. 1t will all
separate into very clean elements. Dirt
makes corn, corn makes bread and meat,
and that makes a very sweet young lady
that [ saw one of you kissing last night.
So after all you were kissing dirt-rarsic-
ulaflv if she whitens her skin with chalk
or Fuller's earth There is no telling,
yonng gentlemen, what is dirt. Though
| must say that rubbing such stuff upon
the beautiful skin of a young lady is
dirty practice. Pearl powder. think, Is
made of bisnuth-nothing but dirt.

No CHANGE.-A sailor was lately at a
certain chapel in Boston; the parson OBJ
serving that he looked rather serious,
asked him if he felt any change! The
sailor put his hand in his pocket, and said
he was very sorry. but he had not one cent.

There is no eloquence so powerful as
the address of holy and consistent life.
Itcharms the accusing. 1t puts to silence
the ignorance of foolish men. Ii con-
strains all to admire.

Gently published work entitled History

the Philadelphia Inquirer derives the

w0OLLENS AND FURs.

MANY persons suppose that the best way
to prevent moths from getting into woolens
or turs. is occasionally through the summer
to hang these articles in the sun and rain.
This is a great mistake, as it is by such
exposure that the moths are most likely to
GET into them. On the contrary, in the
spring. when the season is over for furs
and wooIens, they should be well shaken
and brushed, and then wrapped tightly in
linen, laying among them Jumps of cam
phor; handful Of fresh hops; cedar shaw
ings, and above all fat pine wood shayings,
all of which are preventatives to moths ::
the camphor is by far the best for furs.
All woolens, &C., should be kept during
the summer unopened, in dark dry places,
such as drawers or large chests. Cedar
presses are preferable to all others for
keeping clothes or other wooden articles.
Hair trunks rarely fail to Introduce moths.
The month of June is the best time to
put away tiannels.

ur,IL HEET AGAIN.

Wen meet again how sweet the word
How soothing in its sound
Like strains of far-off music heard
On some enchanted ground.
Wen meet again thus friendship speaks,
When those most dear depart,
And in the pleasing prospect seeks
a balm FOR the bleeding heart.
Wen meet again, the lover cries;
And oh, what thought but this
Can e'er assuage the agonies
Of the last parting kiss
Wen meet again, are accents heard
Beside the dying bed,
When all the. soul by grief IS stlrr'd
And bitter tears are shed.
1relI meet again, are words that cheer
While bending DER the tomb
For oh that hope, so bright and dear
Can pierce its deepest gloom.
Wen meet again then cease to weep
Whatever may divide; ,-

project Of Senator Bell will with favor in the South
and with the Texas people.
Mr.. Clays project seems to be gaining ground in the
Northern States. On the whole, it may be supposed
that slowly approaching to adjustment Of the
whole difficulty. Perhaps it may take place till the
last night of the session. and then the appropriation and
slavery bills will all pass at the same time
Mr. Webster l am sorry to learn, has abandoned the
idea of offering any project for compromise. He had
framed scheme which the Southern Senators approved
Of, and which could have been carried through. The
time to offer was week ago. but there has been since
strong manifestation of opinion at the North in favor
of Mr. Clays resolutions; and Mr.. Bells project has
also pre- occupied the ground. The Union meetings at
the North are for the most part Clay meetings. and
intended to be converted to political purposes They
could scarcely have been had they brought
to their aid the personal and political popularity of Mr.
Clay. Should Mr. Webster now offer to take the lead
which the Southern Senators, and the Western Demo-
cratic Senator's wished him do he would be at once
placed in antagonism to Mr.. Clay and Mr. Clays
friends on this subject. he has been many others
Ii, under these circumstances, he yielded inch
to the South than Mr.. Clay does, he would be pot-
cally sacrificed at the North, though he might have
succeeded here. Ion

PITTSBURGH, March 2, T. M.
1t appears that the some of them) OF our city
are still determined to have their way and persist
in protesting against intrusion of operatives in the foun
deries who are not residents OF the vicinity. This
morning about fifty women proceeded to the
abused the workmen shamefully, compelling them 10
stop work. The mill floor was literally covered with
stones. This was done before the Mayor or Sheriff
could arrive Mr.. Bailey, one of the propretors, was
badly cut in the head After the arrival Of the Mayor
and Sheriff they still persisted, and proceededin body
to Shoenbergs Iron Works, but no further damage
doae.
The storm of wind yesterday was disastrous in this
vicinity, and number of houses were blown down;
also the roofs of three houses.
