INDUSTRY OF THE pREsrDESr.-A Wasl

INDUSTRY OF THE PREsIDENT.-A WASH
ington correspondent of the Eastern Argus
of Portland writes rs follows:
"Whatever else may be said of the present
Administration, we believe nobody denies TO
it the credit of being n hard working Admin
istraiion. Its several departments, from the
heads of them down 10 their copying clerks,
seem to employ themselves diligently and
successfully to prevent the undue accumula-
ton of their business. In this respect, per-
haps our public affairs in Washington were
never better managed. And the President
himself, il is well understood, finds himself
constantly occupied by an attention to his
important duties, which almost makes the
Presidential Office burthen, more than an
honorable distinction. He is fortunate how
ever, in having the aid of Secretary who is
capable of relieving him from much labor
Mr.. Sydney Webster is gentleman of fine
intelligence and of genuine New England in
dustry, and all who know him will readily
bear witness to the courtesy, promptness and
ability with which he discharges his various
duties ut the White House."

MARRY FOR LOVE.

Jenny is poor, and am poor,
Yet we will wed-so say no more,
And should the BARNS you mention come;
(As few that marry but have some,)
No doubt but Heaven will stand our friend,
And bread as well as children send.
So fares the hen in farmers yard
To live alone she finds it hard;
I've known her to weary everyclaw
In search of corn among the straw!
But when in search Of nicer food
She clucks amid her chipping brood,
With Joy I've seen that self same hen,
That scratched for one could scratch for ten,
These are the thoughts that make me willing
To take my girl without q shilling;
And for the same cause, dye see,
Jennys resolved to marry me!

DANGEROUS CoUNTERFEITIHG.-The New
York correspondent of the Charleston Cour.
ier, writing in regard to banks and money
matters says the President of bank just out
of Wall-street, was startled the other day by
the intelligence that by means of photo
graphic instrument counterfeit bills could be
so beautifully and correctly made rs to defy
detection. The person who gave the Presi.
dent this information requested that genu.
inc five dollar bill be given him, and that on
the morrow he would return it with one he
had made, so precisely similar that the Presi-
dent could not distinguish the good one from
the bad. He kept his word and the President
"caved in" To make assurance doubly sure,
the President took some good bills and put
this Photographic one among them, and made
a deposit, informing the teller that he believed
that there was II bad bill among them, and
wished he would look for it. The teller
maintained they were all genuine bills. do
not know how true this statement is, having
heard it mentioned incidenty; but if there is
any correctness in it, what futtering it will
make among the banks. In the hands of
dishonest men, the injury that could be done
by means OF such an instrument, would swal-
low up the recollections of Schuyler's over
issues.

CosSuBIAL.-lf you wish to grow wealthy,
get married. What it costs to support one
vice, will support six children. Until young
man is married, he is tossed about from one
degree of wickedness TO another, till his
health, strength and character are completely
bursted up and done for. Talk about your
Congress water and sea bathing there is
nothing the Lord ever invented for the health
equal to virtuous woman. Were young
men permitted TO get married when they first
feel n passion for muslin and calico, one half
of the hereditary diseases that the human
family are afflicted with would be annihilated,
and the race longer lived.

SENSIBLE ApvIcE.-Professo Maury, Su-
perntendent Of the National Observatory,
addresses the following language to his son,
who is now attending school in Newburgh-
"To the truly wise and good man, Office,
place, honors, distinctions are desirable or
welcome only as they increase his sphere of
usefulness, and enlarge his privilege of do
ing good. To win such privileges, hope
will be the highest point towards which the
ambition of any one of my sons will ever be
directed. do not know where their lot may
be east, for they are all to be the artificers Of
their own fortune. But whatever it may be,
l hope they will let politics alone, seek to be
useful members of the community in which
they live, and study the welfare of the con-
monwealth towhich they belong. Let this bea
rule OF conduct with you now, for little boys
may make themselves useful as well as great
men,"

RELIGIOUS LITERATURE.-H Henry Ward
Beecher, in a late number Of the Independent,
thus gives utterance to some reflections which
have doubtless occurred to hundreds Of per-
sons IN reading some Of the religious publi-
cations Of the day:-"The reason of the hol-
lowness, and shallowness, the feebleness of
so much religious writing lies in the false
principle which has governed good men. A
newspaper must have its pions article every
week. 1t must be about something or other.
Last week it was this, the week before it was
that, and this week it must be something
different from either this or that The inven-
tory of topics is looked over, the vacant head
is driven up, and an article drawn forth, made
up Of stale truisms piousy expressed. Unfet
fervors are in due places, and solemn words
parade along simple sentences. The whole
thing is sham and mockery. The writer
has no inspiration. He wrote because this
must be pious article, and not because he
felt piety. Writing which does good, must
live in the soul first. 1t must have an aim
other than appeasing the printers appetite
for coDvn

THE POST.
ATHENS, FRIDAY, DEC. es, 1854.

THE PosT MASTER GESERAL.-In refer
ring to the rumored changes in the Cabinet,
the Democratic Union of Harrisburg, comes
out on james Campbell in the following
broad-sword manner:
"His appointment was most unfortunate;
it was the origin of dissensions in the demo
cratic ranks, which would otherwise have re-
manned unbroken; and his removal, even at
this late day, after all the mischief has been
done, would be the signal for reunion and
future victory. Other States may speak for
themselves, but in Pennsylvania, so long as
James Campbell remains at the head of the
post office, or any other department, unless
called there by the voice of the people, by
whom he was condemned in 1851, we can
look for nothing but disaster and defeat"

We regret to learn that the recent cleo
tions in Kansas territory, at which Gen. J.W.
Whitfield, the pro-slavery candidate,was elect
ed as delegate to Congress, did not pass off
without those scenes Of bloodshed which
have lately disgraced the polls in some of the
Northern States. A Mr.. Davis late of Mis-
sour, was killed at the polls in Kansas City,
and another man was killed in the town of
Boston.

rW Those who pretend to be in the Sc
crets of the recent convocation of Know
Nothing councils at Cincinnati, say that ano-
ther plank has been added to the National
Platform of the party. 1t is to the effect
that no nomination shall ever be made Of any
man for office who is attached to any Of the
sectional or ultra parties into which the coun-
try is divided. Thus the anti-Nebraskaite,
the Abolitionist, the Maine Law man, the
Nulifier, and the Disunionist, are all repu.
dated and cut off Conservative men-friends
of the Union-and Others, are to be put up
for office. We have never had doubt since
the elections last month, that all these isms
were effectually killed of, never TO be heard
off again. This movement, whether dictated
by patriotism or policy, it cannot be ques.
toned, will add to the strength Of the new
party.

USMITIGArED CURsE.-Read the following
from the Charleston, Evening News, and see
what the Nebraska bill is coming to in the
South:
There never was n completer or more dis
astrons miscarriage than the Nebraska BILL
1t has not only blasted every expectation that
was originally formed of it but it has proved
to is authors apositive and unmitgated curse.
Instead of strengthening the harmony of the
country il has given rise to the interest re-
sentiment and discord. Instead of giving ef-
feet and confirmation to the compromise Of
1850 it has blasted that compromise into
nothingness. Instead of securing two addi-
tional slave States into the Union it has Sc
cured two additional free States. But instead
Of putting an end to the Freesoil doctrine it
has given that doctrine power and respec-
liability which it never possessed before and
which we believe il nevercould have attained
Though any other medium than that opened
by this ball.
