Golden Advice.

Mr. Harvey, the Washington cores
pondent ofihe Philadelphia North Inner
ioan, tells the following tale:
About three years ago, young man
presented himself to Mr. Corwn for n
clerkship, Thrice was he refused, and
still he made fourth effort. His per-
severance and spirit of determination
awakened friendly interest in his wei
fare and the Secretary advised him in
the strongest possible terms 10 abandon
his purpose, and 90 TO the West, il he
could do no better outside the Depart
menis.
"My young friend" said he, "go to
the Northwest, buy 100 acres of gov
ernmeni land--or, if you nave not the
money TO purchase, squat on it get you
an axe or mattock, put up log cabin
for your habitaiion, and raise n lii,c
corn and potatoes. Keep your con-
science clear, and live like freeman,
with no one TO give you orders, and
without dependence on anybody. DO
that and you will be honorcd, respected,
influential and rich. But accept a clerk
ship here, and you sink at once all in
dependence your energies become re-
Iaxcd, and you are untitled in few
years for any other or more Independent
position. may give you place to-
day, and kick you out tomorrow and
there's another man over there at the
White House who can kick me out, and
the people by-and-by can kick him out
and so We go. But if you own an acre
Of land it is your kingdom, and your
cabin is your cas,le--you are sovcr-
cign, and you will feel it in every tbrob-
bing Of your pulse and every day OF
your life will assure me of your thanks
for having thus advised you" II the
thousands who ardenily strive for places
under government would ponder well
these words, and exercise sound dis.
erection in their application, many a
young and gallant spirit would be saved
from inani,ion. TO be useful 10 the world,
and joy, rather than n grief 10 its pos
| sessor."
The Rutland County herald. [volume] (Rutland, Vt.) 1852-1855, 1853-05-28

The Paris correspondent Of the Dali
ly Register tells an amusing anecdote
OF young painter, who is not eclebra-
ted, but whom young duchess eonsen-
ted to advance by allowing him 10 take
her portrait for the exhibition. She
gave him several siitings, and when The
picture was finished, she took several
Of her friends to the studio, TO have
their opinion.
As usual, noiwo agreed one thought
the nose too long, another the eyes too
blue, another the mouth too large; IN
short. il was decided that the painter
had failed. lie. however, convinced
that be had, on the contrary, succeeded
admirably, and being, therefore, totally
adverse TO making any change, propos-
ed that the decision be lcii to an impair
iial Judge and a. the duchess had a
little King Charles spaniel which was
exceedingly attached 10 hcr,ii was asreel
that The dog should settle the question
Of resemblance or no resemblance.

Women and Flowers.

The editor Of the Louisville Journal
has very readable article under this
head, from which we rut the closing par
agraph. II is full Of the true poetry Of
natural and refined sentiments
blessings on the heads of those who
send howery presents 10 those whose
energies have been desolacd by disease.
Flowers impart not only fragrance aud
beauty to ones sick room, but they alb
solnely light up the gloom that hangs
around il like a dark curtain, and cause
chceriuness to take the place Of bcav-
iness and oppression of heart Oilen
has onr soul felt exceedingly grateful To
those dear women who have considered
our low estate and sent flowers, fresh,
fragrant and beautiful. to cheer our in

way through life with flowers, how ea-
gcrly would our hands perform the task,
Had flowers no other office than 10 min

itself would be reason sufficient why
they should be cultivated. But when
we remember that they are not only an
ever pleasant JOY 10 the eye, but are al
SO true and genial teachers OF moral
truth and excellence, as well rs tender
prompters TO the highest as well as the
mosi refined sentiments, we can perceive
Of how great importance it is that the
hand and heart OF woman's power is IN
her loveliness, and she ought to do o,e-
ryiling TO encourage il. Her loyeliness
has broken The bondage in which many
sinful man was bound, ard which had
resisted persuasion and force through
many n year. Let her increase her
power by adding to her loyeliness, and
this she will not fail 10 do II she gives
her heart up to love Of " The beautiful

The Nodtsty of Mrs. stowe.

The London Anthoneum closes up
its second notice of Mrs. Stoves "Key
to Uncle Tom" thus,
"The modesty which leads the writer
to assume that her great success is at
triburable to the cause in which she la
bored is also worthy of remark. Alto
gelher, we must pronounce the "kcy TO
Uncle Toms Cabin" most effective
book. The abettors Of slavery have
not been wise in their generation, in
provoking reply from the mere nov
elist' so conclusive and so crushing on
all the really important parts Of the
controversy in which they have engag-
cd"
"The modesiy"--ahem provoking
a reply from the mere novels" -ahcm
againl The author of Uncle Toms
Cabin" is, at least, not consistent in her
modesty, else how is il that she goes
three thousand miles away from home
to be lionized among Englshmcn, too,
the biterest enemies other native land.
We shall take leave to question, nt
least an erccss Of modesty in the au-
thor Of Uncle Toms Cabin" for many
reasons; but principally because she
makes herself the object Of feaslngs and
junkclings all over England and Scot
land, aud accepts properly
speaking, alms--of fifty pounds at a
tune; Judas mouey-earned, as we
maintain, by slanders on her own conn.
try, her own home and fresidc, bough,
by oceans Of blood and tears, through
the struggles Of the Revolution; wrest-
ed at a sacrifice Of heart l-breakings, hun.
ger, thirst, wearying toll, violent agon-
izcd death, from the enslaying hands Of
those who are now ioasting, feeding, re-
waFding the modest author of "Luclc
Toms Cabin Provoking a reply :"
Nothing provoked a Second book from
ihe author Of Uncle Tom" W. suspect
but the success of the FIRST. One for
tune had been made, another was want

His glistening eyes--his sad, sweet

the room, and when an hour after he
returned, and with more subdued man
