THE CHARMS OF LIFE. There are thou
sand things in this world to affiict and sad
den-but how many that are beautiful and
good? The world teams with beauty-with
objects that gladden. the eve and warm the
heart. We might be happy if we would
There are Ills that we cannot escape-the APP
proach of disease and DEATH of misfortune
the sunlering of earthly ties, and the canker
worm of grict-but a vast majority of the
evils that beset us might be avoided. The
curse Of intemperance, interviewer as it is
with all the ligaments of society, is one which
never strikes but to destroy. There is not
bright page upon the record Of its progress
nothing to shield it from the heartiest eX-
ecration of the humGn race. 1t should not
exist-it must not. Do away with all this
let wars come to an end, let friendship,
charity, love and kindness mark the intercourse
between man and man. We are too selfish,
rs if the world was made for us alone
How much happier should we be were we to
labor more earnestly to promote each Others
good. God has blessed lis with a home
which is not dark There is sunshine every
wherein the sky, upon the earth-there
would be in most hearts if we would look
aroundu us. The storms die away and bright
sun shines out. Summer drops her tinted
curtain upon the earth, which is very beauti-
full even when autumn breathes her changing
breath upon it. God reigns in Heaven
Murmur not at Being so bountiful and we
can be happier than we are.

MADISON, Jan. u, 1853.
Considerable improvement is manifest in
this city since the last session of the Legisla-
ture. Many dwellings, and number of
structures, some of them very fine, for bust
ness purposes, have been erected. A new
Hotel, of stone, is in process of building,
which, when done, will add something to the
appearance, and very much to the comfort Of
the place. In matters of substantial interest
and improvement, Madison owes more to our
present Governor, who is a citizen Of Madi-
son, than to any other one, or probably half
dozen others of its citizens. yesterday had
an opportunity of examining his mill, built
at the outlet Of the fourth Lake and I doubt
whether in the State there is another one SO
beautiful and complete in all its departments
The purpose of its owner, in It's construction,
seems to have been quite as much to intro
duce to the public all the modern improve
ments in mill building, and to improve and
advance the public taste and knowledge in
such things, as to make it source of pecu-
mary proft-and the same spirit, | should

impossible swamps, have now broad avenues
stretching through them, lined on each side

BEECHER ON ORTHODOXY.
Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, one of t

Rev Henry Ward Beecher, one of the
most popular preachers of the times, publish
ed, few weeks since, in the New York In
dependent, reply to the charge which had
been made against him, of being Unitari-
an in disguise We give the following ex-
tract of his defence:
"But what earthly motive can an Ameri-
can clergyman have to be orthodox, if he it
is not so! Do orthodox sects treat each 9TH
er with any such profitable tenderness as to
make it mans interest to dwell among them
with feigned opinions? In fact, the ortho-
dox sects are vast compound threshing ma
chine, failing away at each other as if the
chief end of man was to threSh his neigh
bors. l have never yet seen an acknowledge
ed orthodox man. Every body is orthodox
as compared with those below him, and eve
rp body is orthodox as compared with those
above him, and orthodox regulations, like
country bank bills, circulate only in a mar
row circle, very near home. If one is ortho-
doX in Hartford, he is hereto in New Haven :;
if he is sound in New Haven, he is too loose
for Andoyer; if he is up to the mark in An
dover, he is yet hopelesly below at Windsor;
if he climbs up the toilsome cliffs to the ey-
RE of East Windsor, it is only to bring him
self within the reach of the Princeton ortho-
doxy; and when vet climbing up out Of
sight of all sublunary things, he sits down
on the principles of these Old School Pres
byterian Princeton orthodoxy, and divides
his time between Turretin and such thin-aired
august nights, then, down comes the good
old-fashioned Scotch Presbyterian orthodoxy
carrying him away at one swoOp, to be de-
voured in a vet higher eagles nest. In fact
it is a very hard thing to be orthodox. It's
thing Of degrees, it is a question of the
scale; and beginning at zero, adj the degrees
above pelt all the degrees below. Now if
preacher is hetrodox, he is but suspected,
Iampooned and failed; and he gets that if
he is orthodox SO that, if mans convic-
tons do not keep him among the orthodox,
he is a fool who stays. The company is no
great things. Very clever fellows all, when
not professionals; capital to 60 out and play
with. But man walks about among the
Christian Observers, and the more properly
named New York Observers, and the Pres
byterians, Central, Western Southern, and
all,) and Puritans, very much like man Wis
ting a menagarie, his time being spent in
listening to the strange noises the creatures
make and wondering if they can get out at
him as easily as they roar through the bars -

USAGE ORANGE, or BoIs D'ARc HEDGES. are
" no longer an experiment. They have been
fully tested, and have proved to be just what far
mers require.
They combine the three great requisites of
CHEAPNEsS, EFFICIENCY and DURABILITY, besides
being handsome and ornamental.
The single and only objection that can with rea-
son be urged against the Usage Orange hedge is,
the time required for its growth-ths takes three
summers, or two and half years, from the setting;
ut YOU then have fence that is proof against
oxen, mules, pigs, or even rabbits; living fence
that neither winds nor floods scarcely even time
itself can destroy.
Thankful for former patronage, the undersigned
is now ready to take contracts for furnishing the
best quality of Bots D'Arc plants for hedging by
the mile; delivering the plants at each purchasers
door, in this or the adj acent counties, and fur
nishing all that die out, at $40 per mile, cash on
delivery of plants and conditional note for $40
more, at the end Of y years, at which time good
hedge is guaranteed.
Or. if preferred. he will sell the plants at 81
per thousand, well packed, trimmed and assorted,
delivered at either Glasgow or Fayette; and IS
per thousand. delivered at the purchasers door
IN this Or any of the adjoining counties. in quanti-
ties Of 5000 or over; terms, cash on delivery.
A COPY of plain and explicit printed directions,
for setting and trimming the Hedge, will be given
TO each purchaser.
Pieces of young Hedge, from plants of my rails
ing, may ne seen al Hdy places, IN inns and ada
cent counties. 1t makes a neat and ornamental
fence, for the yard or garden. The setting will
commence with early SPRING
