You Remember it, Don't You!

You Remember it, Don't You!
You remember the time when l first sought your
home,
When smile not a word, was the summons to
When you called me friend, till you found in sur
That our friendship turned out to be love in dis
guise.
You remember it-dont youl
You'll think of it-won't youi
Yes; yes, of all this the remembrance will last,
Long after the present fades into the past.
You remember the grief that grew lighter when
shared,
With the bliss you remember, could aught be conf
paredi
You remember how fond was our earliest vow
No fonder than that which breathe to thee now.
You remember it-don't youi
You'll think ofit-won't youi
Yes yes of all this the remembrance will last
Long after the present fades into the past.

Help US to feel for drunken man,
In all his sins and woe;
And let our bright example teach
The way he ought go.
Let not our conduct harden him,
But fill our souls with care;
To snatch him from the pit death,
And break the fatal snare.

Meier would we cease to pray:
And watch and strive until we reach
The realms of endless day.

PTtserving Fruits in their own

Ihirteen bottles of preserved fruit were
exhibited lately at Rochester, New York bv
William K. Smith of Wayne County. viz.
hVe OF cherries, two of peaches, one of diff

RES, and one of plums.
Ihey were examined by committee. and
found of fine flavor, and the committee ex.
pressed the opinion that the art of preserving
iru't in this manner is practicable, and that
the iruit' when carefully put up, can be made

The method of preserving is thus given To
the New York State Society, by Mr.. Smith.
They are preserved BY placing the bottle.

OF the thanks OF every notable housewife for
the following recipe for preserving peaches,
which we obtained from the wife of an OK.
perlenced fruit grower in this vicinity:
To twelve pounds of peaches, take six
pounds Of clean brown sugar, and one min,
best cider vinegar. Simmer the sugar and
vinegar together, which will make a clear
syrup. Pour boiling water upon the peaches
and remove them in two minutes from tho
water, and wipe them dry withou, breaking
the skin. Put them into the syrup and boil
gently till the fruit is cooked to the stone.
Keep the preserves in jars. which must be
kept closely covered and in cool place. They
should be inspected occasionally, and if a
white mould appears upon the surface of the
syrup, it must be carefully skinned off, and
the syrup scaled and returned 10 the peaches

TIE MESSAGE

In contradistineton to the comments of the
Wing press Of this meridian, we give below the
opinions of three papers which hold quite as high a
rank in Wing estimation as any in the Union
The Alexandra Gazette bestows the following
cautious commentator on the Presidents mes
sage:
"'The message of the President will be read this
year with universal interest. 1t is written well
and gives very gratifying account of our foreign
relations, as well as our domestic prosperity There
fewer points open to criticism than we expect
ed-and we are pleased to see public document
OF this character with 50 little of the partzan and
politician and so much Of the statesman in its COM
position. The discussion of some portions of its
contents we shall reserve TO future occasion -
For the present we should prefer that it should be
Iniparuaiiy judged, without comments prejudice or
disposition TO controyert Its positions With views
10 which we may object, II carried out to their le-
glumate conclusions, we see much to applaud and
many patriotic sentiments which we heartily com
mend. There Is a want Of explcitness, on the Pa
CHIC railroad question--but enough is said to show
that It, Is not an administration question Upou the
whole, We trust that the performances NAV be az
good as the promises, and that hereafter we NAV
be as able to speak az well Of the Presidents acts
we do Of bis words
The Baltimore american is more explicit. 1t
says:
we cannot OF course, discuss the topics treated
OF by the message at this time but we take pleas
in saying that whilst its style and temper are
worthy of appreciation, the nationality of its doc
trInes-n maintaining the rights of our citizens
IN restraining depredatons against other nations
IN protecting and developing our infant and distant
acqusitions-in the general supervision of our do
Inestic interests; and above all in pledging himself
TO maintain the compromise measures, and to see /
that the repose which he assumes has succeeded |
the adoption of these measures shall "suffer no !
check during his official term, if he shall have |
power TO avert its worthy of all commentator |
and support Indeed, in studying the State papers |
of an Administration whose chief has written so |
little that his political opponents condemn the fu-
ture historian will be at a loss so imagine why such
Administration should have experienced so great
a loss Of party confidence or such dimnution of |
Legislative strength
The National h1tebigeacer is quite emphatic:
without attempting at present anything like a
review Of this important exposition of the state of
the Nation, and Of the views entertained by the
President upon particular questions of national pol
icy, we may be allowed to say that, as a whole,
the perusa Of it has afforded us qualification in ma
ny things-and even agreeable disappointment in
us little to regret but its opinions,
differing from our own, certain points upon
which we had no reason to expect them to agree"

ORITUARV

| Gen. WILLIAM BLACKMoRE, late Of Gallatin, ha:
gone to his long, long home. An accident which
befel him in fall from his horse, has deprived q
lovely wife Of an afectionate husband, dear little
son of fond and doing father, and the whole
community in which he lived of most useful ef
fective and philosophical citizen
| We knew him not only as an accomplished GEN
tlenan, but as laborious and valuable public of
ticer; and we speak of HIM not merely to pay a de-
served tribute to his worth as a man, but because
we know of no man whom we would sooner pro-
pound as an example to young men seeking to make
themselves useful and honorable in life.
The office of Clerk and Master of the Chancery
Court under its present separate and independent
organization, is one of great labor and difficulty
and responsibility. This Office Gent B. has held
for the past eighteen years, dischargng its duties
with promptitude- distinguished ability and
acceptability to Chancellors, lawyers and htigants
nhis county; and, if distinctions were not invidi-
Gus, it might be said with remarkable truth, that he
was the best Clerk and Master in the State of Ten
nessee. r...
In adjusting the complex details of mercantile
partnership, and of executorial accounts, we have
often admired the industry, laborous research and
ability with which he would work out the abstruse
problems presented to him in the discharge of the
duties of his ofice-aiding the Chancellor in the dis
Charge Of his arduous duties and leading the minds
of lawyers engaged in the causes of the court to
satisfactory results and conclusions.
Gen. B. was emphatically a good man. Those
who knew him best, valued and loved him most
He was faithful friend. The closer the scrutiny
the more his fidelity was exhibited, and the more
beautiful seemed his character. He mad few defects
for friendship to conceal Not perfect for perfection
Is not aowedto noralman;but il none did the alloy
of humanity ever bear smaller proportion to the
pure ore. There was in him singularly exact ad-
justment of passions and faculties
Gen. B. loved his country-was brave soldier,
and in the Mexican war covered himself all over
with glory
He is gone, and we shall see him no more on |
earth, except in the memory of his virtues. The
2hasm which he has left at Gallatin in the social
'rce, in the Chancery Court Clerkship in the love
md affections of that community, it is fearful to
contemplate. That manly form, warm with all the
elections of life is now cold in death
The brave soldier, the faithful friend, the affec-
tomato husband and father, has assembled to his
'ather in Heaven. r.

TIE LATE ERIE MOB.

We regret to see it stated in the telegraphie col
umns of some of our contemporaries that Gov. BIG
LER, of Pennsylvania, has sent message to the
people of Erie declaring that his sympathies are
with them, and that he will make them a visit if
they desire his company. We sincerely hope that
this reports slanderous for the sake of Gov BIGLERs
character as man and an officer. We can hardly
conceive more fragrant outrage than that of
which the people of Erie have been guilty, and if
they receive the counte nance and Sympathy of the
State Executive we cannot look upon it otherwise
than as a most disgraceful and lamentable sign of
the times. That the people of Erie should wish to
fleece the unfortunate travellers who are compelled
to pass through their town, by selling them at ex-
orbitant prices hot coffee and doughnuts is perhaps
not to be wondered at, as the world goes The
traveller is considered legitimate prey by such folks
composed the mob at Erie and it is absolutely es-
sental to the ofsuch towns that he should
be bed freely IL he has the least drop of patriot
ism in his body, and more especially if he has a
due regard for the soundness of said body, he will
submit to the operation as a lamb goes to the
slaughter But it is little too bad when the pub
lie peace and private rights molested in order to
enforce this implied right to rob the traveller And
it is still worse when the chief officer of a State
openly countenances such infamous proceedings
We therefore repeat that we sincerely hope Gov.
BIGLER has not disgraced himself and his station
by sympathising with the rioters of Erie If he
has he is unworthy Of his position, and deserves
the execrations Of the gallant democracy of Penn
sylvania.
We entirely concur with the Louisville Journal
in the opinion that "it is disgrace to the State
Pennsylvania that the citizens of Erie have been
permitted, without opposition to destroy the rail-
road and the railroad bridge near that place The
State should have protected by force the property
of the company and compelled submission to the
law, even if it had been necessary to charge upon
the mob as upon gang of invading Indians The
majesty of the law now demands that some hun
dreds of the Erie rufans shall be sent to the peni-
Tertiary, and hope that it will be DONE 1t would
be well to have abig penitentary erected expressly
for their accommodation. And we could wish |
there might be two three FORCES in it. so that the
rascals, with shaved heads and tow breeches, un-
der the crack of the whips of overseers, might be
compelled to make iron rails to supply the place of,
those they have destroyed"

to state that Mr. JONES declined permitting his name

would have evinced their attachment TO him as a.
man and admiration of him as statesman by sup
porting him for the Speakership but the state of
