In breaking or managing horse how
ever intracticable or stubborn his temper
may be, preserve your own. Almost ev-
cry fault Of the brute arises from ignor-
ance. Be patient with him, teach and coax
him, and success, in time, is certain. There
are tricks, however, which are the results
OF confirmed habit of viciousness, and these
sometimes require different treatment.
A horse accustomed TO starting and rum
nirg away, may be efiectually cured by
putting him to the top of hi. speed on such
occasions, and running him till pretty thor
oughly exhausted.
A horse that had trick Of pulling at
his bride and breaking il, was at last re-
duced to better habits, by tying him tight
y 10 stake driven on the bank of deep
stream. With his tail pointing 10 the wa
Ter, he commenced pulling at the halter,
which suddenly parting, over the bank he
tumbled, and after somerset or two, and
laundering a while in the water he was
satisfied to remain at his post in future, and
break no more brides.
A ram has been cured of bu,ting at
everything and everybody, by placing an
unresis,ing effigy in a similar position;
when the sudden assault on a win!ry dav
resulted in tnmbling his ramship into q
cold bath, which his improved manners
took good care 10 avoid in future.
A sheep killing deg ha. been made TOO
much ashamed ever again TO look sheep
in the face, by tying hi. hind legs 10 stout
ram, on the brow ofa hill, while the flock
were quietly feeding a. the bottom. On
being set free, and somewhat stsrtled at
setting out in his haste TO reioin his friends,
ne 'umbled and thumped master Tray 50
sadly over the stones and gullies, that he
was quite satisfied to confine himself to
cooked mutton hereafter.
Mans reason was given him to control
"the beasts of the field and the birds Of
the air." BY other means than brute force.
II he will bring this into play, he will
have no difficulty in meeting and overcome
ing every emergency of perverse intellect
or bad habits in the dumb thing by his SUI
perior cunning. -- Exc.

LAST WORDS OF THE PREsIpEETs.-
When Washington was sixty seven years
old, he laid down upon his death bed. II
find ! am dying said he "my breath can.
not last long" And again-''Doctor, l
die hard, but am not afraid to 60: be-
lieved, from my first attack. should not
survive i, !; my breath cannot last long"
And SO he ceased TO breathe.
More than quarter of century elaps-
ed, before smular scene was witnessed.
Then, Oh the same day, the first Jubilee
of the Nation, Adams, al ninety years of
age, and Jefferson at eighty three, came
down to their last hour IL resign myself
to my god,'' said Jefferson, .and my child
, 10 my country" Soon after Adams ex-
claimed {: independence forever !"--
and all was over. They, too, had ceased
to breathe.
Five years after this a. seventy-one
years of age Monroe ceased TO breathe.
Five years after this at lightly five years
of age, Madison ceased to breathe.
Nearly five years after this, at sixty
eight years of age Harrison remarked
"Sir, | wish you TO understand the prin-
ciples Of the Government. / wish them
carried out, ask nothing more" And
he ceased to breathe. ..ss
Four years after this, at seveniy-eight
years of age, Jackson observed, in sub
stance.-My sufferings, though great, are
nothing in comparison with those Of my
dying Savior: through whose death Hook
for everlasting happiness" and he ceased
to breathe.
In less than three years after this, at
eighty years of age, the second Adams de-
clared This is the last of earth, / am
content" And he ceased 10 breathe.
In a little more than one year after this,
at iiIty-three years Of age, Polk bowed his
head in baptism, confessing his Savior
And he ceased TO breathe.
And now within the last month, at six
ty-fve years OF age, the lamen,ed Taylor
has submitted to the solemn decree IL
ain ready for the summons" said he, II
have endeavored to do my duty. am
sorry TO leave my friends. And he, too,
ceased to breathe.

A Jaw BREAKER.--The following actu-
ally occurred al the house of lady in the
city of New York, some fifteen years ago.
1t is the custom to hand round cracked
hickory nuts, apples. raisins, &c., 10 the
company that happen in Of an evening"
The lady of the house had hired a servant
few days before, green Irish woman,
fresh from the Emerald Isle, by the name
Of Peggy. Some mats were to be cracked
one evening; Peggy was called, and re-
ceiving a dish oil nuts from the lady, was
told 10 take them down to the kitchen and
crack them. (llwas ,hough, Peggy knew
all about cracking nuts.)
Time enough had elapsed for Peggy TO
have cracked them, when the lady stepped
to the head of the stairs and called
"Peggy!'
"Marm!'
"Have you those nuts cracked vet ?"
"No mar,n!"
"Well make haste We are waiting for
them"
Another half hour elapsed and no nuts
appeared.
Peggy. Peggy
"Marm!"
Come, come; have you those nuts
cracked yet?"
"No marm- they oint hoif cracked, ond
nae lathe are almost out Of me head already"

GErH>EMANE.-L Lieut.. Lynch ofthe U.
States Exploring Expedition to the river
Jordan and the Red Sea in lS4S, visited
the garden of Gethsemane about the mid
die Of May. He says:-
The clover upon the ground was in
bloom, and altogether, the garden, in lis
aspects and association was better calcn-
lated than any other place | know to soothe
"a troubled spirit. Eigh, venerable trees
isolated from the smaller and less impos-
ing ones which skirt the pass of the Mt
OF Olives form consecrnt ted grove. High
above on either hand.towers lofty noun
tain, with the deep yawning cha>m Of Je-
hoshaphat between them. Grow ming one
of them is Jerusalem, living city; OH the
slope of the other is the great Jewish ce-
m-tery, city of the dead.
Each tree in this grove, cankered and
gnarl-d and furrowed by age, yet bea",i'
ful and impressive in its decay, is a living
monumen: of the affecting scenes that have
taken place beneath and arcs,nd it. The
olive perpetua,es itself, and from the roo,
OF the dying parent stem, the young tree
springs into existence. These are ac-
counted one thousand years old. Under
those of the preceding growth, therefore,
the Savior was wont to rest; and one OF
the present may mark the spot where he
knel,, and prayed and wept. No c"viII-
ing doubt can find entrance here. The ge-
opraphical boundaries are too distinct and
clear for an instaut's hesitation. Here the
Christian forgetiul ofthe present, and ab-
sorbed in the past can resign himself to
sad vet 500, hing meditation. The few pur-
ple and crimson flowers, growing about
the roots OF the trees, will give him ample
food for contemplation. for they tell of the
suffering and ensanguined death of the
Redeemer."
