WHAT is TRUE PLEAsuRE.-The man whose heart is
replee with pure and unaffected pety, who looks upon
the great Creator Of the Universe in that just and amabe
light which all His works reflect upon him, cannot fail
OF tasting the sublimest pleasure in contemplating the
supendous and nnumerable effects OF His Infinite good
ness.
Whether he looks abroad the moral natural
world his reflections still be attended with delight
and the OF his unworthness SO far from les
senng will increase his pleasure, while places the for
bearing kindness and indulgence OF his Creator in still
more interesting point of view.
Here his mind may dwell upon the present. look back
to the past or stretch forward into uurty, with equal
satisfaction and the he INDUCES contemplation, the
higher will his delight arise Such disposition as this
seems be the most foundation which the fab
rio of true pleasure can be built
Next TO the veneraon of the Supreme Being the love
OF human kind to be the most promising OF
pleasure 1t failing to him who, possessed
of this principle enjoys all the power OF ndugng his be-
nevoence-who makes the superiority OF his fortune his
knowledge his power subservien to the wants OF his
fellow-cIeatnres
1t is true there few whose power Of fortune is SO
adequate to the of mankind 10 render them capa
Bile OF performing these acts of universal benehcence but
a spirit of universal benehoe may be possessed by all
the bouneous Author OF Nature has not proporoned the
pleasure to the greatness OF the cause.
The contemplation Of the beauties OF the universe the
cordial enjoyments Of friendship, the tender delights OF
love- and the rational pleasures of religion, open TO all
mankind. and each of them capable OF giving real
happiness. --Peiersburg Intehigencsr.

Charcoal as a assn ure.

Charcoal is an impure form OF carbon, and is manu-.

The process of manufacture consists In exposing 10 heal

Charcoal has several properties which render II OF value

which il retains within It's pores in state OF high con-

danses much ninety times It's bulk oil ammonacai
gas and thirty five times its volume oil cafbonc acid
As these two gases form the principal organic food OF
plants, is obvious that charcoal may have powerful
individual action upon their growth. The experiments OF
Saussure and others have shown that plants flourish
with great luxuriaace when the atmosphere IN which
they grow contains Than the usual amoun, OF car
bonic acid, Charcoal, after having absorbed carbonc
ID and ammonia from the air places plants under favor
than usual amount OF this organic food The only az

charcoal have varying values in this respect Expert

count used for removing the putreacve faint from foul
water, or other putrid substances When used as filter
for foul water, both the smell and odor are removed.
From this deodorizing property charcoal is frequently
mixed with night-soi and other decaying nanures,
