Advice to Young Ladies.

Trust not to uncertain riches, but
prepare yourselffor every emergency
in life. Learn to work, and not be de-
pendent upon servants to make your
bread; sweep your floors and darn
your own stockings. Above all this,
do not esteem too lightly those honora-
BILE young men who sustain themselves
and their parents by the work Of their
own hands, while you care for, and re-
ceive into your company those lazy,
idle popinjays, who never lift a finger
to help themselves, SO long as they can
keep body and soul together, and suffi-
cient to live in fashion.
Young women remember this, and
instead of sounding the purse of your
lovers, and examining the cut of theiI
coats, look into their hearts and hab.
its. Mark if they have trades, and car
depend upon themselves; see if they
have minds which will lead them te
look above a butterfly existence. Tall
not of the beautiful white skin and sofi
delicate hand-the fine appearance o!
the young gentleman Let not these
foolish considerations engross YOU
thoughts.

SlaUe States.

Delaware, though nominally slave
State, is in fact a free State, having but
a few hundred slaves, in the course of
speedy extinction, and the State itself
being entirely Northern in its position,
and in the feelings and sentiments of
her people. In few years at most,
California will be carved into four or
five new States, which, with New Mex
leo and Utah, (perhaps variously SUBJ
divided will be knocking at the door of
the Union for admittance, and, unless
they come, as it is not at all probable
they will come, with constitutions rec
ognizing slavery, they will be prompt
ly admitted into the Union. The North
will then be triumphantly in the ascen-
dant in both branches of Congress,
and probably in all the departments Of
the government, and will be able to
carry any point they please. If the
past has been characterized by such
fearful inroads upon the slave institu.

Total number of slaves in I776, 500, ,l3

Ofthe thirteen original members of
the confederacy, seven have abolished
slavery. viz: Pennsylvania, New Jersey,
New York, Massachusetts, Rhode ISL
and, New Hampshire and Connecticut.
African slavery would have existed to
this day in these Northern States, but
for the fact, that they were peculiarly
a manufacturing section, and entirely
unadapted to the culture of any of the
great agricultural staples of the coun-
try in which alone slave labor can be
proftabiy employed. Slave labor was
improbable in the North, and there
fore, and therefore only, wasi abolish
ed-no, not abolished, but disposed of
for roiue receired, to the Southern
/ planter, who, from his peculiar climate
and soil, could make it profitable in the
production of cotton, rice, sugar, to-
bacco, and other great Southern sta
piles.
| Had the labor of the slave been prof
liable at the North, the Yankee Aboli-
zionist would have been the very last
to part with it-and the very las,
whose sympathies would have been en-.
listed in behalf of the negro race. This
is evidenced by the fact that the ! an
KEGS who contract on our public works
or who come and permanently settle
amongst us, are the very first to EN-.
ploy slave labor, and the most severe
and cruel in their treatment of the sub.
/ ject of it. And the reason is obvious
The Yankee is proverbial for his love
of money and of gain. He is accus.
toned to make everything, from ths
wooden nutmeg to the more enlarged
Yankee notion, turn to money. A
the North, he is in the habit of work
ing white labor, and as he is not th'
loser by the bad health, the accidents
or even the death OF the white laborer
he makes the most of his time, frequent
ly unmindfui of the most ordinary act
of indulgence and kindness to the un

Words are Things. .

Yes, and sometimes very dangerous
things, too. They are like firearms,
and should be handled very carefully.
Have care ofyour words or you may
hurt somebody when you do not mean
to. A mans 'grub" may depend upon
his neighbor's grammar, and accusa-
tions of horrible sins may grow out OF
nothing but sintax. A worthy clergy
man once came near losing his diving -
in this way-and mans living is the
next thing to his life. 1t happened thus:
The minister's name was mentioned in
terms ofeulogy one evening at social
gathering in his parish, when a person
present, a solemn-faced, ,waggish fellow,
of conviyial habits, observed that he
quite agreed with the rest in their
praise of Mr.. A.
"We have often drunk brandy-and-
water together" said the bon-ripunt,
"and | consider him one of the pleas
antest fellows | ever kew''
A pretty compliment to clergyman
and tee-totaler! The story got to
the deacons, and the deacons brought
it up in the church. The parson was
arraigned and confronted his accuser
who declared that, what he said, was
strictly true, but was obviously misun
derstood.
1t is solemn fact" said the witness
"that your excellent minister and my
self have drank brandy-and-water to
