MISTAKING THE MAGNOLIA FOR CAR
BAGES.-Last week Il party of German
emigrants went ashore from boat on
the Mississippi river and gathered large
quantities of the leaves and flowers from
the Magnolia trees. which they took on
board, boiled and ate, from the effects of
which one man died, and four others came
near dying. They had mistaken the leaves
of the Magnolia for cabbages supposing
that in this fertile country, cabbages grew
wild, and from 60 to 10 feet high, as does
the Magnolia on the coast. The leaves
of the Magnolia resemble those Of the
cabbage, but are poisonous.-.Hinneso-

Musical.

The advertisement of Mary A. Aver
is worthy the attention of all lovers OF
mtisic, or those who are in any wise in
terested i'll its study and progress. The
instruments she advertiseS we know are
very handsome to the outward eye. and
her own high musical ability and excel
lent taste are sufficient guaranty that
they are right in the more essential re-
spects' We are confident the instruments
IN which she deals can be had of her to
better advantage than they can be OBJ
tanned from distance.
While writing the above, our wander
ing eye, directed no doubt by some music
loving spirit, fellup the following which
is so pat to the matter in hand that we
cannot forebear to quote it:
Music at Home.
Music serves to make home pleasant,
by engaging many of its inmates in a de
lightful recreation, and thus dispclling
the sourness and gloom which frequent
ly arise from petty disputes. from morti-
fed vanity, from discomfort and envy.
1t prevents, for the tine at least, evil
thoughts and evil speaking, and tends to
rcivc the minds cf both performers and
hearers from the depressing effects Of care
and melancholy. Young people need and
VIII have amuscmentS. If an innocent
and improving kind be not provided at
home. they will seek elsewhere. lftcy
find places more agreeable to them than
their homes, those homes will be dcser-
ted; and thus the gentle and holy inllu-
ences which ought to cncircle the family
tireside, will be in a great measure lost
For surely melody from heaven was sent
To cheer the heart, when tired with
human strife;
To soothe the hayward heart, by sorrow
rent
And soften down the rugged road of
life -
Let parents, therefore, take pains to
encourage and CRAFTY taste for music
in their children, and it will amply repay
them for so doing.

EH~TIle tender-heartedness of son

The tender-heartedness of some
of our bunker brethren is really refresh
ing, during this exceedingly warm wea-
Their. They deprecate such meeting as
the pcoIl recently held at Madison, be-
cause it tends to get up sectional party
to create sectional agitation and may
result in seriously offending our southern
brcthrem The South are united almost
to man TO PROPAGATE slavery and sub
vert the government to its use it has or
ganizcd sectional party to accomplish
its ends, and now we are gravely told we
must forber to unite in selfdefcnce lest
the south become offended. What a la
mcntable state Of affairs it would be, if
we should fail TO stand quiet while our
southern brethren were faying US and
hanging our hides on the fence. Our
amiable bunker brethren remind us of a
gentleman who having detected his :" bet
ter half" in an oilchce which is supposed
to be the most fragrant better half can
commit, informed her with tears in his
eyes, that if she repeated the offence, he
should feel it his duty to seriously re
mon,trate with her, We live in hope
that our bunker brethren will some day
screw up their courage to a remonstra-
ting point.
