~ 0OIDL.
r EONARD SCOTT & Co., No. 81 Gold street
ing British Quarterly Reviews and Black wood ;
Magazine; in addition to which they have recent
ly commenced the publication of valuable Agri-
cultural work, called the
/" FARMERS GUIDE TO SCIENTIFIC AND PRAcrIcAL
AGRICULTURE"
By HENRY STEPHENS, f. r. s., Of Edinburgh, au-
thor of the "Book Of the Farm" &C., &C.; assisted
by JOHN z. NoRroN, M a., New Haven, Professor
Of Scientific Agriculture in Yale College, &C., SO
This highly valuable work will comprise two
large royal octave volumes, containing over l 400
pages, with IL or go splendid steel engravings,
and more than 600 engravings on wood, in the
highest style Of the art illustrating almost every
implement of husbandry now in use by the best
farmers, the best methods Of ploughng, planting,
haying, harvesting, &C., &C., the various domes-
tic animals in their highest perfection; in short,
the pictorial feature Of the book in unique, and
will render it of incalculuble value to the student
Of agriculture. nc
The work is being published in semi-monthly
numbers of "a pages each, exclusive Of the Steel
engravings, and is sold at IS cents EACH or IS for
the entire work in numbers, Of which there will be
at least twenty-five.
The British Periodicals re-published are as fol-
lows, viz Nt.s.t.sf as
The LONDON QUARTERLY REVIEW CONSERVATIVE
The EDINBURcH REVIEW (Whig),
The NORTH BRITISH REVIEW Gree Church),
The WESTMINSTER REVIEW (Liberal.)
BLAcKwooD's EDINBuRGH MAGAZINE (Tory).
Although these works are distinguished by the
political shades above indicated, yet but small
portion of their contents is devoted to political sub
jects. II is their literary character which gives
them their chief value, and in that they stand
fessedy far above all other journals oftheir class.
Black,oood, still under the mastery guidance OF
Christopher North, maintains its ancient celebrity
and is, at this time, unusually attractive, from the
serial works Of Buwer and other literary notables
written for that magazine, and first appearing il
it's columns both in Great Britain and in the United
States. Such works as "The Caxtons" and an
New Novel" (both by BulwerD "My Peninsula
Medal, ""The Green Hand, and other serials
Of which numerous rival editions are issued by tn.
leading publishers in this country, have to be rel
printed by those publishers from the pages O.
Blackwood, after IL has been issued by Messrs. Scot
& Co., so that subscribers to the reprint Of that
Magazine may always rely on having the earliest
reading Of these fascinating tales.

Every one has heard, says Punch, of
the language Of flowers, in which lack
adaisical young ladies might talk sweet
stuff by the fower-pot full for hours;
but according to the same authority a
more dangerous nuisance has lately
sprung up in the facilities given BY the
titles of songs for fiirtatfons between
the young men in rausc shops and their
fair purchasers. The following is a
specimen not only of what might hap
pen, but what, no doubt, does happen
very frequently in some of the London
musical stores, and perhaps on this side
the water as we'll:
SCENE, SHOP Young man discovered
sorting music behind q counter. En-
ter young lady ,oith a roll Of music.
Young Lady (sof,ly. .)-Oh! I've come
to return "Love's Whisper"
Young Man.-Allow me to offer you
.'The heart bow'd down." Pm sure it
viii please you.
Young Lady.-Be good enough to
change "The heart bow'd down. for
'.Happy Heart" and then I'll take it.
| left it behind me the last time | was
here.
Young Man.-If | had known you
had left it behind you, | would have
looked ont "The Manly Heart to go
back with it. Shall | send it by Par
cel's delivery!
Young Lady-No; I'll take that and
The Manly Heart home with me to-
gether. Have you any thing else very
pretty to tellme of!
Young Man Cooking over stock of
music, and con motto espressione. )-'sI
love her, how | love her, sShe shines
before me like a STAR"
Young Lady (also turning over mu-
.sic.)-"Will you love me then as now,''
Young Man.-ssDearest, then I'll
love thee more.'
Young Lady-'sThen you'll remem-
Der me-" Now can / depend upon all

Gems of the Soul

The Soul, too, as well as the Heart.
has its Gems; and they are susceptible
of q far higher polish and much rich
er light. Their polish is obtained thro'
sickness, trouble sorrow and scathing
notifications but their light is the full
orbed brightness OF the perfect day.
The shadows that darkened their vision,
like the mists that cloud the advent of
twilight-the veil that hid their destiny,
like the hills that intervene between Us
and the rising sun, pass below its disc
and reveal its power and lis beauty, its
treasures and its usefulness. in all their
wealth and their plenitude.
Let us endeavour TO collect few of
them, along the highways and by-ways
of life, to tighten the burthens OF the
weary and cheer the sinking souls OF
the heavy-laden. They are not the ex-
elusive privileges of any class, bat may
be enjoyed by the rich, the middle cias-
seS, and the poor. By the first, where
the possession of wealth liberalizes the
affections and renders it an agent ofe
! tensive usefulness; by the middle classes,
when they feel a pleasure in extending
to others a share in the enjoyments that
surround them; by the poor, when they
eat their humble meal in contentment;
and to all, when they enjoy, bestow
and share the good that providence
sends, with liberal hand and gratiiied
heart.
Generous acts and benevolent affec-
tons toward our fellow men, of every
class, are among the richest jewels that
emblazon and perpetuate name and
| stud the castings Of human soul. while
its living image is only TO be found in
Truth, Purity and Lore to God and
! Nan.
The Soal Of Nan! its gems so purei
What richer theme inspires the pen:
IL is a rock, TO firm endure,
A teater course, forever sure:
A heaven of stars, 10 light secure,
Forever suffering, fainting, sorrowing msn.
The Soul of Mani its lights 50 truei
What nobler thoughts aiorn the head,
VIII mortal man, his choice to rue,
Seek out the false, neglect the true,
That brightly beams through yonder blue,
Hisbark to steer, his wayward courseto tread'
The Soul of Man, It's destiny!
So clear the course, so bright the PATH
VIII his firm. foet forget the way.
And after folly's footsteps stray.
To darkness from the light Of day,
While mercy kindly points its end in wrath
Forbid it Heavenl the bans forb;dl
Nor let the soul, from bondage riven.
I Be now again in troubles hid,
| And all its lights extingaished,
/ In an oblivious, darxsome shade
But keep that soul firm fixed on Heareni

which rurs: '.our safety depends upon our
silence and our aeduieseence to the powers
that be; for if We have discussion we must
have disruption.
To such a doctrine as this our names are
no. ubscribed-neither do We countenance
such<trashy wash-for if.the unity of
this great nation depends upon our silence;
if q unity of the country depends upon one
portion remaining torpid to their interests,
and not expressing the deep seated eonvic-
ton of their honest feelings, why then fare
well for ever to strength; farewell for ever
to satisfaction; farewell forever to the unity

imposing upon his people, and which every
tyrant might reign upon if he conld but es-

institutions Why, children would not be
SO foolish, so imbecile. No, we believe in
no such doctrine, we believe in full and fair
