THE CABIN BOYS STORY.

A SEMI-NAUTIcAL ROMANCE OF INTENSE INTEREST,
Ivy THE AUTHOR OF THE pirate DocToR," THE
LAWYERS Story" THE "OLD DocToR," &C., &c.
The success hitherto enjoyed by the author of the
above popular works is q sufficient guarantee of
the favor with which any productions coming from
his pen will be received by the public. "Thc Cab
in Boys Story" is u romantic narrative, %illustra-
ting the horrors of the Slave Trade, as carried on
in the Coast of Africa. The author has served in
tho Maryland tho descriptions and characters are
painted from personal acquaintance with them.
The story is full of exciting interest and adventure
as the celebrated work of Dcfoe, 'Robinson Cru
Soc" and has the advantage over that glorious fic-
ton, inasmuch MS it is founded on facts of every day
occurrence. The history of the heroine of the
Story, Zuleika, the Circassian Slave, purchased ~
Constantinoplc, educated and married by the reckc
less, yet chiyalric, Seymour-the commander of
the Albatross, is simply the narration of n fact,
painted from the life, and all the numerous charac-
tcrs portrayed throughout the story are wildly and
graphically drawn.
The publishers have already received orders for
the whole of the edition it was originally their in
tention to publish; consequently, they have been
Obliged largely to increase it and they respectfully
request that all orders may be sent in Immediately.
They confidently expect that the work will create
as much interest as any work of fiction that has of
late years cminated from the press, as, notwith-
standing, since the publication of "Uncle Toms
Cabin" works relating to slavery in America, FRO
and CON, have been numerous, none have appeared
having relation to the system of purchasing slaves
on the African Coast, written by one who has wit
messed it in all its hideous deformity. The work
is written in shaste and pure language, and will be
a welcome and instructive addition to the family
library.
The work will form q beautiful octave volume of
400 pages, handsomely illustrated with fine engra-
wings, and elegantly bound in cloth. Price in cloth
one dollar;.i in paper, IS cents, at which rate copies
will be sent by the publishers to any part of the
country, free of postage.

H CHECK REIN.

When Stewpyd harnesses his horse for dragging
brick up n grade, the horses head is pulled back
towards his tail and anchored there by the sens
less and mercilcss check rein. The arrangement
is unnatural the animal is constrained by it. lie
must inevitably lose strength by it, for it disturbs
the vital force and induces an unnatural action in
the muscles of the neck, head, shoulders, and
mouth. There are Actually less energy and vigor
left for the limbs and chest than there would be il
the stupid continuance were jerked off ana thrown
over the nearest fence. If reason cannot teach
this promptly to any man, Just let him try the ex-
pertinent by putting a martingale upon himself
and go to wrestling, or putting a check in the
Jaws of a boxer that shall extend down his back
to his belt.
Who besides the British use the check rein,
saving their free trade slaves and general imitators
the Americans? The French do not use it; the
Germans do not the Indians and Spaniards of
South America, who literally live on horseback,
are perfect horseman, do not the Spaniards of
Europe do not, nor do the Turks. The most OBJ
servant and natural people in the world are free
from this mischievous error. 1t is strange to us
that the English and ourselves did not, years and
years ago, reason upon the constantly-witnessed
fact that when n check rein was lOosed Mt u tavern
stoop or in u stable the poor horse Arrays stretched
out his neck and hung down his head. That was
his language for saying that the slap hurt him and
wearied him, and that he was heartily glad to be
relieved from it.
The genius that first proposed the mechanical
feat Of lifting himself up by the seat of his
brooches must have been the author of the theory
that tho check rein held the horse up and kept him
from falling. The mechanical action in the two
cases must be precisely the same. If the reader
will reflect for u moment he win see that no sus-
pending power eau be derived except from without
the animal. A post, tree, or beam is Just as indis-
ponsable 10 the support of u horse as 10 the sup
port of u man intent On suicide. a horse can't
hang himself up in the air by the terrets on his
back any more than II man can by pulling upwards
on his neck handkerchief.
ID The check rein should be abolished. 1t wastes
motive power. Its use is unhealthy, for it disturbes
the otherwise naturally and equally distributed
vital forces. It shortcns the life of the horse. II
diminishes his speed and lessons the Tree and quick

THE WOMAN OF THREE cows.


The following poem was translated FROM thc
Irish, 10y jaws CLhRuNcE MAVGAN, who died
lately in Ireland, in great poverty. although highly
for his writings. The author is unknown,
but it seems TO have been intended to rchukc the
pride Of n woman. who " stuck herself up on the
ownership Of ~ little property. Every boy in
America should commit This to memory, aud throw
1t into The teeth Of that large class of feminine and
masculie bipcis, who walk the streets so " big with
vain IDEAS -
Oh Woman of Three Cows, ogroph! don't let your
tongue thus rattle
Oh! don't be saucy, don't be stiff, because you may
have cattle.
| have sccn-and, here's my hand to YOU, I only
say what's true
A many a one, with twice your stock, not half SO
proud as you.
Good luck to you, don't sco,n the poor, and don't
be their d%ospiser,
For worldly wealth soon mclts away. and cheats
the very miscr;
And earth soon strips tho p~roudost wreath from
naughty human br0ws
Then don't be stiff, and don't DO proud, good
Woman of Three Cows!
See where Mcmoeia's heroes lie, proud Owen
Morc's descendants,
lis they that won the glorious name, and had the
grand attendants
If THEY were forc'd to bow to fate, as every NOR
tai bows,
Can you be proud, can you be stiff, my Woman Of
Three COWS?
The brave sons of the Lord of Clare, they left the
land to mourning,

their returning
Who knows in what abodcs of want those youths
were drove to house?
Yet you can give yourself these airs, oh Woman
Of Three Cows!
Think on O'Donncl of the Ships, the Chief whom
nothing daunted-
See how he fell in distant Spain, unchroniclcd, IN
chantcd
He sleeps with great O'Sulliyan where thunder
cannot rouse!
Then ask yourself, should you be proud, good
Woman of Three Cows?
O'Rourke, Mcguire, those souls Of fire, whose
names are shrinod in story
Think how their high achievements once made
Erin's greatest glory
Yet now their bones lie Wondering under weeds
and cypress boughs,
And so, for all your pride, will yours, oh Woman
of Three Cows!
Tn O'Carrolls also famed, when Fame was only
for the boldcsG,
Rest is forgotten scpulcbros with Erin's best and
Oldest;
Yet vino 50 great as they Of gre in a battle or
caruusc?
Just think of that, and hide your head, good
Woman Of Three Cows!
Your ncighbor.s poor, and you it seems arc big
with vain ideas,
Because, indeed you've got three cows, one
more, ! see, than she has.
That tongue Of yours ways moro at times thar
charity allows,
But, if you're strong, be m~erciful, great Woman o
Three Cows!

Now, there you go! you still, Of course, keep "
your scornful bearing,
And Pm too poot to hinder you but, by the cloak
I'm wearing,
IF | had FOUR cows myself, even though you wore
my spouse,
I'd thrash you well, TO cure your pride, my Woman

How MUcH SUGAR DO We EAT?-Last year there
were consumed in this country about seven hun
dred and fifty million pounds of cane sugar and
twenty-seven million pounds of maple sugar
This gives more than twcnty-soven pounds of cane
sugar and one pound of maple sugar to every man,
woman and child. This does not include molasses
or honey. If this sugar were put into barrels hold
ing two hundred pounds, and each barrel occupied
the space of three square feet only, it would re-
quirc three hundred and ~thirty-six acres of land
for it to stand upon. The barrels, if placed in a
row, would reach two hundred and twenty miles.
If this sugar was put up in a paper package of
five pounds each, it would require one hundred
and forty-six million four hundred thousand sheets
of wrapping paper; and if only n yard of string
was used to each package, there would be required
four hundred and thirty-nine million two hundred
and thirty-nine million two hundred thousand feet,
or eighty-thrce thousand miles of string--more
than three times enough to go round the world.
If every retail clerk sold a hundred pounds of su-
gar each day, it would require nearly twenty-five
thousand clerks to sell it all in a year. If the
dealers, wholesale and retail together, madea profit
of only two cents a pound ON this sugar, slthesc
profits alone would amount to nearly SIS, 0O0, 900.
