The Undefinable Feeling.

T Here comes the feeling, and
/ must catch up my pen and put
thought to paper. But stop! what
is this feeling? Who has ever anal
ysed it? Can it be done? 1t is so
subtle, so strange cometh not of
books or learning in schools. It is
likc'a light shining inwards with
rays dlverging ID every point of the
animate soul. A. warmth enters in
and settles about the heart there is
a stretching out of the spirits hands,
and gathering in from high filled
treasures that look to others but as
heaps of rubbish. The lustreless
coal becomes burning diamond ;
the arid waste is covered with bril-
liant flowers; the silent hall where
the spider and the bat have held re-
vels for years, shakes with bursts OF
glad music queenly beauties start
from their dusky shades, and robed
in olden splendor, move to the sweet
sounds. h no in3H aonai .ia US
J From an exhaustless fount does
that feeling come. Scholars can
never create it - it is not bought
with gold it is not Graded in uni
versities, nor rocked in chambers of
luxury. 1t has sat in garrets and
ruled worlds; it has been clothed in
rags, and rich men have bowsd
down and worshipped il. The fag-
got has been heaped around it, but
its breath crumbled the throne and
banished the king from whom
the cruel edict issued. 1t has lam
guished in prison and yet created in
that dim solitude, a work whose no.
BILE lessons have been excelled in
moral sublimity only by the word of
Godyod Dfa ,ria8i ano1uo isom Z
In blindness it has wrought what
no power earthly can destroys

ing claims no paternity but His. Its
patent right is in heaven, where
greedy inventor can never Law the
touch OF his unhallowed fingers upon
it; and no parchment unrolling back
even 10 the days Of Adam, can show
a hereditary claim to this noblest of
gifts. Genius is then bestowed d.
rect from the Creator; and woe to
him 10 whom it is made an engine
for the destruction Of hody and soul.

And chain the lghtnings in their course;
Go, bring the angry tempest back iie -u
The hurricanes unylelding force, aN

The earthquake struggling to be free; s
Or tasten in their watery bed, .......
The battling pillows of the eea

A shake for the noble mind.
Above all barriers will rise
The proud nobility of soul, sol sU0

What will thew omen do Next

Said a fine accomplished doctor,
TO us a short time since. We will
tell yo MI. Love.youself, what we
intend TO do. We intend TO help
raise up every daughter of America
that will hear us and take our advice
TO cultivate her own faculty and 10
learn to take care of herself-instead
of being forever a slave, and a de-
pendant upon man for her support
and happiness. We intend 10 en-
treat her to understand that she
should be no more dependant upon
man, than man is dependant upon
her. We intend to pray her 10 learn
the full powers of her own mind,and
that moral courage is as much
needed in herself, as in any man
that ever breathed the air Of heaven.
We mean to tell the women Of our
land that they have the power TO
choose for themselves those employ
ments that seem best suited TO their
genius and faculties. We intend
to tell them that the lord their crea.
tor has made them as responsible for
every act of their lives, as are men.
We intend 10 tell all the women that
we are ever permitted TO see, that
they have just as much right to take
our paper on their own account, as
men have to take one for themselves
We intend 10 ask them if their hus-
bands ever think or even does ask
them what paper they may patron.
ize? We intend TO tell that freedom
fromall slavery, with Liberty, Truth
and Equality, and that true benevo-
lence that makes us do unto others,
as we would have them ds, unto us,
are the main sails with which we
may float safely in the midst oflife's
stormy but beautiful ocean. All
these things we shall tell them as OF
ten as our voice and pen may reach
them. No ladies, if you intend to
listen TO our future advice, you must
dare TO give us your patronage.

henderson barbecue.

Our citizens turned out nobly yesterday to
attend the celebration of the COLE mencement
of the Henderson and Nashville Railroad
the "bresking ground" of one of the most
important enterprises of the age, in which
our citizens feel deep interest in common
with the people of Southern Kentucky. We
were glad to see SO many of our enterprsirg
citizens manifest their appreciation of the
Importance of this road to our own CITY,
It is but one of the many indices that point
to its future greatness. Our Kentucky
friends sent out general and cordial invita-
ton, to their neighbors, and gave them re-
reception which fully assured them that gen.
uine Kentucky hospitality, was not merely
an empty name. The locomotive steamer
White River made two trips down and back
accompanied by the German Brass Band
which gave them the sweetest kind of music
We shall give full report tomorrow, whe n
our reporter shall have had time to arrange
his copious notes for publication.

Evansville and CrawfordsviIIe Rail-
road.

Contrasts have been entered into for the
grubbing and grading of that portion of this
road lying between Vincennes and Terre
Haute-a distance of 81 miles. This road
is probably the most important North and
South road in the State of Indiana. 1t COM
mences at Evansville, the principal CONNER
cial City on the Ohio river below the Falls
runs thence due North till it strikes the Wa
bash river at Vincennes, where it crosses,
at right angles, the Ohio and Mississippi
railrodd-thence up the rich Valley of the
Wabash, via Terre Haute to Crawfordsville,
a distance of 100 miles, where it is placed in
connection with roads constructed and in
progress, leading to Fort Wayne, Toledo and
Sandusky City-and also via lafayette to
Lake Michigan. The amount of local bus-
ness that must necessarily be thrown upon
this road, passingas it does, through the most
extensive and the richest Valley of lands in
the known World, must be immense. So
confident are men of capital that the stock
in this road will be profitable. that many have
already made large investments in its stock.
Amongst others may be named Mr. CLANCY
Rose, a shrewd business man, late President
of the Terre Haute and Richmond Railroad
Co., and who has more skill and experience
in railroad making than any man in the State
ofIndiana. This gentleman actuated by the
belief, that sit is the local trafc from which
railroads derive their greatest profit" has al
ready invested large sum in the stock OF this
road, and intends as it's said, to increase tie
amount. Other capitalists residing in the
East, are seeking to make like investments
tits perfectly natural that this should be so.
No man of ordinary judgement can pass over
the country it traverses without coming to
the conclusion that for natural resources, i,
stands unsurpassed by any portion of the
globe.
