American Institute Of Homeopathy.

The American Institute of Homeopathy
held its annual session in Cleaveland, Ohio,
commencing on the 18th inst The roll of
members, consisting Of over three hundred,
was called, and a large number answered to
their names. Richard Gardiner, M. d., Of
Philadelphia, was chosen Chairman. Thirty
three new members were qualified, among
whom we notice ]. P. PAINE, M. D., of Ded-
ham, Mass, recently of Damariscotta. Many
subjects of interest to the profession were dis
cussed, and resolutions passed
VIM. A. Gardiner, M. D., of Philadelphia,
was elected General Secretary
S. S. Gay, M. D., Of Brooklyn, N. Y,
Provisional Secretary.
S. R. Kirley, NJ. D., Of New York, Treas
urer.
II. P. Gatchell, M. d., of Cleaveland, was
appointed to deliver the next Annual Ad-
dress, and VIM, E. Payne, M. d., Of this
city, his alternate.
The Institute adjourned to meet in Albany,
on the first Wednesday Of June, 1854. -
A correspondent of the Philadelphia City
Item, from whom we gather the above, says:
''The proceedings throughout were conducted
in spirit of harmony and unanimity, and the
individual members returned to their homes
animated with new zeal in the cause of sci
ence and humanity" -.sl...

Roses and Thorns.

The warfare between those affectionatc
whig editors Of the Bangor Wing and Show
hogan Press is now known as the ''War of
the Roses" They have'it ship and thigh, -
more thorns than roses. We regret exceed
ingly. the unhappy condition in which these
brethren of the press have placed themselves;
because they not only lose standing as men
of judgment and GOODNESS, but indirectly bring
a reproach upon the State, and in foreign
parts beget the idea that the democratic edi-
tors Of Maine are entitled to great commisera-
ton for their unfortunate location where such
BLACKBOARD antagonists 60 at large. We do
regret the unpleasant affair exceedingly
Cannot somebody put the editor of the Wing
in mind Of the couplet he has often repeated
to juveniles, with alterations, as follows =
whggies they should never let their angry passions rise
Surely they made to tear each others eyes
To show our readers the desperate condition
of our very dear wing friends, the editors
named, we copy a Slceet-rose leaf from the
Wing, and sweeter rejoinder from the Press:
The whole war of the Press consisted in
its proclamation; that issued, and having moth
ing with which to sustain itself, or to make
out single affirmative point, it fees for shell
ter behind loco paper, and there trusts to the
chances Of wrapping its handy legs in the filth
lest Of its rags. If its master hires it to bark
at US again, we shall poke a stick at it, even
if it does make it stink Wing.
1t does well indeed for a man to talk of
''master" and "agent" who has crawled at the
feet of every ism and humbug that is retailed
by crazy fanatics and rattle Drained imposters,
under the guise of moralists and reformers;
who has licked dust at the feet of almost every
political faction well as religious creed; it
does well, we say, for such man, who has
many masters and no fixed principle of &C
ton that any one has yet been able to discover,
to talk of subserviency! Such men know what
subserviency is, and hence estimate others and
Judge their motives by their own contemplate
standards. Perhaps a philosopher who is so
wise as to declare from the fulness Of s'the in
terror Of his mind and heart'' that ''man is
greater than Sheep is really too wise to be
reasoned with, or to be checked in any rampant
folly into which his Quixotic ideas may lead
him. At any rate we claim to ourselves no
honor from a controversy with SO distinguished
an intellect! We will let Dapple run the
length Of his feather; then if he brays too loud
or kicks against the breeching we will give him
brad, already well sharpened and sufficiently
long, that he will feel whereupon he will have
something to kick against.-PreSs.

The Father Of the Union.

The following eloquent tribute to DR.. Frank
lin is from an address before the New York
Historical Society by George Bancroft
"Not half of Franklin's merits have been
told He was the true father of the Ameri-
can Union. 1t was he who went forth to lay
the foundation of that great design at Albany;
and in New York he lifted up his voice
Here among US he appeared as the apostle Of
the Union. 1t was Franklin who suggested
the convention Of l774, and but for his wis
dom and the confidence that wisdom inspired,
it is matter of doubt whether that congress
would have taken effect. 1t was Franklin
who suggested the bond Of the Union which
binds these states from Florida to Maine
Franklin was the greatest diplomatist Of the
eighteenth century. He never spoke word
too soon he never spoke word too much;
he never failed to speak the right word at the
right season."

1d<'ng Back all ths Hard Things said.--We
learn from the Rochester Advertiser that q
wing appears in the columns Of the Newark
Eagle, who says he wrote much and smoke
more against Franklin Pierce while cand;-
date for the presidency; but since the object
Of his assaults has been installed in the white
house he has visited him, and has changed his
opinion entirely. In proof Of which the writer
says
No one can pass an hour with him with
out being impressed with the conviction that
Frank Pierce is man Unmarked traits of char
sagacious and observation-disclosures to
perceive and prompt to act-always ready to
listen to advice-but possessed of strong will
ana hrm mind There is peculiar expression
ABOUT his eyes, indicative Of the character Of
tne man as developed since his Inauguration.
1t is that-so to speak-of person who knows
himself thoroughly, and what is ofeouaI impor-
lance, knows those by whom he is surrounded.
He who asplres to overreach Frank Pierce
must rise early in the morning. =

Good Manners.

The following extract which we cut from an
exchange, contains more truth and weighty
truth in a small compass than we often find
1t is worthy of preservation, and some Of the
boorish moralists Of the present day ought to
keep it between the leaves of their bible -
Many people who are very strict in their NOR
ality are as careless of their manners as if the
courtesies of life were no more worthy of their
attention than its frivolities. But they are sad
ly mistaken. The influence of manners-good
or bad-is immense, especially on the immedi-
ate happiness of society. Indeed politeness,
suavlty, cheerfulness, courtesy, gentleness,
and all those nameless qualities which go to
make up what we mean by "good manners, y
are to the weightier matters of life and charac-
ter-what oil is to machinery, making all go
smooth and safe when otherwise everything
would go rough and wrong. The connection
between manners and morals is closer than one
is apt to imagine, and many fragrant breach
of the latter has been occasioned by inattention
to the former. The formal courtesies of the
bar and bench, unmeanlng as they seem, are
of the greatest Importance In maintaining the
good order and dignity of the courts Consid-
ering that the very business of the forum is
disputation, it is remarkable that any depth Of
hostility is. seldom awakened between the com
battants; and this is owing mainly to conven-
tional forms of politeness: "My learned broth
err is a much safer opening to debate, even
when the speaker is angry, than an exordium
commencing with "The ignorant rascal who
appears for plaintiff in this suit" Gentle
words favor gentle thoughts and actions, and
Uice versa.

Vanderbilt's Steamer in Europe.

Com. Vanderbilt is making sensation with
his steamer in Europe. The idea of private
Yankee gentleman building one of the most ell
egant steamers in the world and inviting his
friends on apleasure trip to the great ports of
Europe, opens the eyes Of Englishmen wider
than the exploit of the New York yacht
America. Since the excitement produced by
the yacht America in 1851, nothing has been
witnessed like the universal interest which is
manifested in Mr. Vanderbilt's steam yacht the
North Star. The American consulate at
Southampton has been beseiged for days past
for tickets to view her, and persons have come
from all parts of England to see her. Every
ticket admits ten persons. The public will be
admitted for three days more, before she sails
for St. Peterburg. The most minute descrip-
tons of every portion Of her machinery and
decorations, the rate of her sailing, her costs,
the history Of her building, the personal MARIA
tive Of Mr.. Vanderbilt, his appearance, early
life, business, fortune, family, age, &C., fill
the newspapers and are in all mouths. 1t is
undoubtedly true that the North Star is one Of
the most perfect specimens Of naval architect
ure the world has ever seen. The Express,
no mean authority, says, that ''all who have
seen the North Star believe that we may learn
as much from her in the building and engin-
eering of passenger ocean steamers, as we
learnt from the celebrated American sailing
yacht two or three years ago in the building
and rigging Of sailing ships"

WAGES IN SAN Francisco. The Alta Cal
fornia complies a table carefully Of the wages
paid for all kinds of labor in San Francisco,
and says that though wages are constantly de-
creasing. yet many years will elapse before
they will be as low as in the old states. 1t
says that no mechanic should come to Califor-
MA without money, nor should he come to Cal
ifornia with money unless he is a first rate
workman; but if he stands at the head of his
profession, he can have as much as he can do,
and get almost his own price. The words
'. $. mean that work is very scarce for such
mechanics to which it is affixed. The letter
b. affixed means that boarding accompanies the
Eastern times. [volume] (Bath, Me.) 1846-1857, 1853-06-30

HENoLoGY. The editor of the Bangor
Wing having received an uncommonly large
egg from an uncommonly small hen, says it is
curiosity, and can't conceive why it was not
put into two eggs.
The editor of the Bangor Mercury says the
matter should be looked into, in order to de-
velope the interior idea of the small hen tribe,
and calls upon Moore Of the Belfast Journal
for his experience, which is understood to be
considerable if not more, among the Waldo
hens.
Moore, in his usual lucid style, scratches
out the interior idea as follows =
Our investigations with the Waldo breed
ers offowls 90 to show that the concentration
of selfexistences, proceeding in reciprocal
duplicate ratio, naturally produce problem
atical dagonism which in some measure
proves, that the essence may be referred to
the second practicable. Will the Wing give
US its views on this point!
