in silence upon the ear of the mighty dead, sounds which when living he loved sO well Go hear.
 That man is superficial observer of life, and still more superficial reader of histo- ry and of human events, if from the seed of the .tumb of the illustriOus dead he cnn discover no flower which is to spring fnrth and blossom, and to throw iissweetnrss on tho future glory Of sur land. The memo ry of the gOOd, in the humblest walks of life. Is amOng lhe choisest blessings which | wise Providence vOucisafes to mould the character Rnd subdue the evil paSsiOns of our race. In the death of a great slaies> man ,One who has deserved well of his country, who has passed his long and val- ued life in her service. whose deeds are among her richest treasure, around whose words are entwiped the high resolve and the patriot truth, the fragments which bind a. nation together shoot forth like the rooiy fibres of spsar of grain or young oak after the kernel and the acorn have decay ed and mingled with their mother earth.

Mr. WebSter'S Remains

From a letter in the New York Times dated at Marsh6sld, we cut the fol owing paragraph :--
 'The co'ps is arayed in such ha5ili. ments as his compeers of the Senate have often seen him in, when, on bright sum mer morning he sought the Senate Hall to pour the words of wisdom. and the light of truth upon some topic of sur passing public interest. A blue coat with plain gilt buttons, vest and pants oi spotless white. are substituted for the shrond. A white nsckcloth encircles the throat, over which is turned. the shir, collar. The feet are encassd in silker hose and shoes. of patent leather. The hair of the deceased is pared and dis. posed as in life: and his white sloved hands are crossed upon his breast. Tn. lips gre slightly parted. just as wher about te speak. How fitting is the ap pearance of these remaias! They seen indeed. to,sleep but for an hour 1; ant their habiliments. though prepared fo the grave. still suggest lifs. and feed tn, lingering imagination which would rean innate the helpless clay.

bring for exhibition thereat portions OF your stock
the products of your orchards, and Of your gardens
Don't presume that any animal, or product, you
NAV own is inferior to others that will be here
and be thus deferred from bringing them as 1t is
only by comparison that the relative merits ofany
thing can be determined. The safer presumption
for you to arrive at, will be that what you have
as as good, if not better than that OF others, ana
that it behooves you to CALAMITY enter the list OF
competition if defeated honorabIy, and the high
haracter of the judges is guarantee that you
an be defeated in no other way, you VIII ENJOY
he luxury Of knowing that others were more en-
lied to success than yourself.
And while we address you to bring such articles
as are properly in your department, we crave per-
mission to solicit your interest, to induce your
oipes and daughters to bring whatever appertalns
to their peculiar departments as embroidery, Rouse
hold manufactures, the proaucs Of the DAIRY and o
the poultry yard, preserves, domestic ,c.nes, coYec
ions and above all things, to come themselves a.
p,tot ,ooan, and the beautiful celebrations OF he'
asle and genius, no display can be perfect.
To the Manufacturers Of agricultural Implement
and Tools, we would say, that interest ana patri
otism both combine to enjon upon you the pro
priety Of making grand exhibition Of your ma
chinery of all kinds, from our present advices'
we are led to believe that the assemblage of farm
ers and planters, and Of distinguished strangers
from most of the States of the Union, VIII be
greater than upon any former occasion here or
Elsewhere. We therefore say to the agricultural
implement makers and Mechanics ofthe United States,
make it a matter of pride to display your machi-
nerv at our exhibition, and vie with each other in
having the best and largest assortment on the
ground. Such ambition is laudable-is worthy OF
American genius, and should be cherished ny the
American heart.
