A sINEcURE.-The Tribune says "Thc Rev.
orvillo Dewey some time since resigned his
naval sinecure. Mr.. Fillmore made him q
Chaplain in the Navy, at an annual compensa-
ton of $1,000, for which he did not preach a
single sermon or do any other duty during the
years he held the Office except very regularly to
draw the pay !! This is the first instance in
the History of the Government of tho United
States, in which Office has been utterly and
wholly sineeure."
Why should Chaplain Dewey preach to the
sailorsi Did he not pay in advance for tho
Office by his sermon in favor of the fugitive act.

verys Not so much of sinecuro after all. Al
least Il would not be to some folks.

The Power of Kindness.

No man hath measured it-for it 10
boaEdless; no man hath seen its death
tor it is eternal. In all ages of the world,
in every cline, among every kind, it hath
shone out, a bright and beautiful star, a
beaming glory!
Look at the case of Saul and David
Bitter and blasting jealousy filed the
heart Of Saul--and hc sought to take the
young mans life" With hellish hate he
haunted him, eIen TO the dens and the
caves of the earth. But David conquered
his enemy-even the proud spirit of
naughty Saul, he BUNDLED. And howl
Not with sword and spear--not with
harsh words and eoarse contumely-for
these did never touch the heart with gem
tie influence. No-but with a weapon
simple as the shepherds sling, yet sure
as the arrow OF death; Twas kindness
This killed ranking hatred and left Saul
to i've. And when it had done its work,
Saul said to David, Thou art more right
eous than |, for thou hast rewarded me
good, whereas | have rewarded thee evil." :"
Was not here a victory-more glorious
more God-like, than Wellington ever
knew.
Are we not asked to listen to the soft
sweet tones Of that voice-"Father, for
give them o, here was kindness.
Look over our extended country at the
present day. What has changed those
miserable novels Of other days, where
misery and wretchcdness had dwelt, into
the neat and beautiful abodes of plenty
and peacel What has kindied anew the
flame of love and affection, in hearts long
estranged and freezing with coldnessl-
What has made happy the homes Of
thousands Of wives and tens Of thou
sands of childrenl What, in short, has
been the great propellsnt Of the late tenn
perance reformation, which has carried
JOY and gladness all over the landl What
but kindness.
Reader, have you an enemy whom you
would make friepd-a neighbor who
needs repentance--a fallen brother whom
you would restore to sobriety and virtuei
Forget not the power of KINDNESS.

FOR THE LEDGER.

FOR THE LEDGER.
Mr.. ED1roR,-I am more than pleased to
see that an Agricultural Society has been
formed in our district. have not rs yet
had a convenient opportuny of becoming
member, but mean to do so, and will do
all can to induce others to join. There
can be nothing better calculated to do good
to our district than this agricultural Society,
if properly conducted, for it will operate ma
terally, iE developing the hitherto undeyel-
oped resources of the District, and intro
duce an improved system of agriculture.
| have seized upon the present time as
favorable one to bring to the notice of our
| farmers, and especially the Jealous members
of the Agricultural Society," a favorte sub
ject of my own. The cultivation of grasses.
II is conceded on all hands that too little at
tention is paid to the production of the ne
ccssaries of life. If farmers would not let
the cultivation Of cotton divert their atten-
tion almost entirely from the raising of hogs,
horses, mules, and horned cattle, but would
raise them in sufficient quantity to supply
the home demand, our country would be
much more prosperous than it now is. Too
much of the money arising from the sales Of
our cotton is annually taken TO Kentucky
for horses, mules and pork and 10 other por-
tions of the Union for nccessaries such as
the above, as we'll as -four, bacon, &c. II
should be the object of the farmer rs well
rs the political economist, TO keep as much
Of this moncy,as possible at home, for in the
abundance of money arising from the sales
Of our own productions, consists prosperity,
and in its scarcity consists hard times.
Clover is an excellent grass and grows
we'll in this district. Are there not other
grasses that will do equally as well? Would
it not be we'll for the agricultural Society to
appoint committee charged with the inves-
tigation Of this subject? | send herewith
an article on grass by p. L. Duncan, publish
ed heretofore in several papers, and request
you 10 insert it.

HOMESPUN.
Ashes as a Manure.

There is not farmer in the State of
of the gres.t advantages to be derived from
the application of ashes as fertilizer to,
his worn-out lands. And we say here, as
we have often said elsewhere, that there
is no one substance in nature that so a.
bundantly contains the mineral elements
of the various crops which We cultivate.
Farmers are often heard to complain, for
the reason that they have not got bed
Of mari, or are not able to get shell or
stone lime, for the reason that they live
so far from navigable stream. All such
as make this complaint have great advan-
tages for burning ashes and we had much
rather have bushel of ashes than the
same quantity of lime, the reason men
toned above-that we have in the bushel
of ashes so many of the various elements
which are required TO produce good crops.
The impression among farmers generally,
is that the burning of ashes will not pay !;
but such is a great mistake. But at the
same time there is proper way to go to
make the burning of ashes good busi-
ness. The heaps Of wood should be made
small, for if they are large the draught
created carries off great many OF the
ashes and larger quantity are burned
up. After the ashes are burned, If not
used Immediately they should be protec-
ted from the weather, for the same reason
that the soluble parts contained in them
will be dissolved If left exposed to the rain.
The best manner Of applying ashes is in
compost with muck or woods-mould, and
the rate Of about fifty or sixty bushels 10
tho acre of land. In the production Of
tobacco and potatoes, the application Of
ashes will he of material advantage, for
the reason the plants contain a great deal
of potash, which may be found more a.
bundant in ashes, than in any other sub
stance that will justify its use. Every far
mer should save all of the ashes from the
houses upon his farm, and for their pre-
servation, It would be well to have an ash
house made Of brick, into which the ashes
could be put when taken up, without any
danger from fire which might be remain
ing in them.- Farmers Journal

Singing.

The mechanical part Of singing, even
the most perfect, is an indispensable
part of the merit Of good singer; but
this is not all. The most successful de
livery Of the voice, the best. regulated res
piration, the purest execution of the
ornaments, and, what is very rare, the
most perfect information, are the means by
which great singer expresses the senti-
ments which animate him; but these are
nothing more than means; and he should
persuade himself that the whole art of a
singer is comprised in them, might some
times give his audience degree of tran
quill pleasure, but would never cause them
to experience vivid emotion. The great
singer is one who identifies himself with
the parsonage whom he represents, with
the situation in which he is placed, and
the feelings 2hich agitate him who aban-
dons himself to the inspiration of the
moment, as the composer would do in
writing the music Which, he performs; and
who neglects nothing which may contrib
ute to the effect, not Of an isolated piece.
but Of the whole character. The union
ofthese qualities constitutes what's called
expression. Without expression, there
never was n great singer, however per
feet the mechanical part of his singing
might be; and expression, when it is real,
and not merel ely-laLored acting, has often
obtained pardon for an Incorrect per
formance.-Ausicoi Review.

Excuses for not Going to church.

THERE is no excuse so trivial, that will
not pass upon some mems consciences to
excuse their attendance at the public wor.
ship Of God. Some are so unfortunate as
to be always indisposed on the Lords day
and think nothing so unwholesome as
the air Of church. Others have their
affairs so odly contriyed, as TO be always
unlucklily prevented by business. With
some it Is great mark Of wit and deep
understanding, 10 stay at home on Sun.
days. Others again discover strange fits
of laziness which seize them particularly
on that day, that confined them to their
beds. Others are absent out Of mere con-
tempt for religion. And, lastly, there are
not few who look upon il as day oi
rest, and therefore claim the privilege Of
their castle, 10 keep the sabbath by eating
drinking, and sleeping, nfter the toll and
labor Of the week. Now in all this, the
worst circumstance is thatthese persons

quired, and who stand most in need o.

Who Sent Them?

Old Mother Bender was pious but poor.
In the midst of her extreme want her
trust and confidence was in God.
was late one chilly night in the au
tum OF the year, when two rather wild
young men were passing her cottage on
their way home. One of them had un-
der his arm some loaves of bread which
he had ad'procured at he village store. A
faint light glmmcrcd from mother Ben
der's easement. Said the one who had
the loavcs to his companion, Lets have
some fun with the old woman"
agreed" said the other. They an.
preached the house ana rccpcd into the
wlnuow, saw the old woman upon Ter
knees, by the hearth, where a few cmbcrs
were smoullcring in the ashes. She was
engaged in prayer. They listened and
heard her offering an earnest petition for
bread. She WAS entirely destitute of
food.
In furtherancc Of their fun, one of them
with the loavcs climbed softly UP the roof
of the cottage, aud dropped one loaf after
the other down the chimney. As they
rolled out on the hearth, they caught the
old lady's eye, and in the fulness of her
heart, she exclaimed
Thank the Lord, bless the Lord for his
bounty.
"But the Lord didn't send them," shout
cd voice from the chimney.
"fes he did," she cried undautingly; 'the
Lord sent them, but the devil brought
them"

A Snake Story.

A CORRESPONDENT writing from Texas,
gives us a good story, for the perfect truth
of which lie pledges his sacred honor"
"One night, my wife and myself were
awakened by voice from the shelf, which
contained our store Of croekcry, follow Cd
by crash, which showed that grea
portion of our cups and plates haG beer
flung to the floor. Springing up to dis
cover the author of this attack upon Chi.
na," found a large snake in a somewhat
unpleasant fix" lie had crawled upon
the shelf, attracted by a number of eggs
which were scattered about.
"Onc o; these he had swallowed, and,
in order to get at the next, he had put his
head and portion of his body through
the handle Of jug, which happened to
stand between the coveted delicacies.
The handle was just opened enough to
let his body, in its natural state, slip clev-
erly through, but not sufficient to let it
pass when pulled out by an egg. In this
position he had swallowed the second
egg. His snakcship thus found himself
unable to advance or retreat, and in floun-
dering about to escape from this novel
stock, had caused the accident which had
aroused us. !, of course proceeded at
once to execute summary Justice on the
interloper; but the eggs which he had
swallowed We're dead loss. "-Millakins s

perpctrate the jokes Once upon time a
boy was sent to Ks Office for ~

him it was the editorial they wanted
