Horsemanship Extraordinarx.

The following appears in the local col,
umns Of the Albany Atlas:
"At about p. NJ, on Saturday, an
accident occurred in South Pearl Street.
which, contrary to the expectation Of ali
who witnessed it, was unattended with
any serious consequences. A country
man, name unknown, stopped with his
wagon at Hadly & Osbornes grocery,
corner of Lydius and Pearl, for the pur-
pose Of getting some groceries, remaining
in the wagon while Mr.. Osborne waited
upon him. A drove of cattle came down
Pearl Street while Mr.. o. was putting
some goods in the wagon, and, instead Of
turning down Lydius as was desired, thew
rushed by keeping in Pearl.
"one OF the drivers in front of tn herd
attempted to bead them of, belsboring
the foremost with heavy goad. The an-
imal thus beaten, a young and active COW,
turning to avoid the blows, WAS met and
pressed toward by her companions in the
rear, to opposite the wagon above re-
ferred to. The droyer, with less prudence
than cruelty, still applied the blows, when
N''S ~" hiu'iotou duu ROdUeu animal,
to escape the dilemma, with one desper-

and lodged upon the pole between tue
horses and the wagon box! Here was
singular fix. The horses became fright
ened, began to kick and rear furiously,
and finally started down Pearl street at
furious speed, carrying the poor cow with
them! When opposite Herkimer street,
the driver, who had boldly held on and
retained his selfpossession in this uuheard
OF race, was thrown out of the wagon by
sudden sheer of the horses, but sustain
ed only triiing bruise.
The horses, now relieved of the res
sraint Of the reins, continued down Pearl
street at increased speed, to vedder &
Selkirk's yard, where, turning short TO en-
ter, the COW, which during the ride re-
manned as though petrifed, was thrown
violently on the walk, but spraug imme-
diately to her feet, and ran of, seemingly
uninjured. The horses brought up in the
yard, with but few slight marks, the
wagon was nearly demolished, and the

Open Cotton.

On F'iday last we received from our
friend DR.. George Smith, of this county,
two fully matured and thoroughly opened
cotton bolls. We were also informed
that the first open cotton was seen by the
Doctor in his fields on the 4th Of July.
We were also informed that he has more
rot in his cotton fields this year, than he
has ever known before.
In this connection il may net be amiss
to say that We were called upon by Mr..
David Gibson, on yesterday, and he in
formed us that he had examined Mr..
Ferguson's field, and that he had picked
eight rotton bolls from one stalk, and
that the rot to an equal extent seemed to
prevail throughout the field. The same
information has been given us by other
person as to the extent Of the rot. fthis

The U. 8. Mail steam ship Atlantic, Capt.

erpool on the 7tb, and the Union at Havre
on the 10th inst. The Atlantic passed the

The most important item ofnews by this
arrival 10 the fact-telegraphed from LON
don to Liverpool just prior to the departure
of the Atlaatic--that Lord John Russell
had resigned, and that it was rumored that
+ the Earl of Derby would be called upon
TO form another Ministry. This event, how>
ever, was not unexpected, as on the 18th
inst. Sir, Bulwer Lytton moved in Parliament
chat the Ministry containing Lord John Rus
sell was unworthy the confidence Of the ma
zion. This crisis has arisen in consequence
oe Lord Johns bungling explanation of his
conduct Mt the Vienna Conference. Parlia
ment will be prorogued In August. Queen
Victoria will visit the Emperor and Empress
of France in Paris on the 7th of August.

aside from the presence and glory Of The

honoring Christ too highly; but we must
take heed that while we yindicate HI.
honor, we do not degrade and obscure the
revelation he has granted Us. And Christ
has assured us that he will bo eIoriIied in
the persons Of his disciples, both here and
hereafter.
The view of the apostle in expectation
OF reunion with his beloved friends, was
authorised by Christ himself. Thus we

be giorifed in has saints" 1t is bis
prayer for the Thessalonian Christians.
that the name Of our Lord Jesus Christ
may be glorified IN you and ve in him y
10 the Galatian Christians, Paul says, in
speaking of himself "and they glori6ed
God in me-" Indeed, SO far was the
apostle from regarding it as any detrac-
tion from the glory of Christ, that he
holis 1t forth as an animating incentive
to himself and others, that the elory of
Christ would be augmented by the mutual
JOY OF the saved, when thew should r..
cognise each other in his presence. It
animated his own preaching, as when he
says to the Colossians, in these words,
whom We preach, warning every man,
and teaching every man, in all wisdom.
that we may present every man perfect
in Jesus Christ" To the Philippians. he
says, "That may rejoice in the day of
Christ, that have not run in vain. neither
labored in vain"
A striking illustration of the belief Of
the apostle, appears in his epistle to the
Ihessalonian Christians, who are describ-
ed rs endeared to him in a threefold re-.
spect, which rises in the order of climax
before the apostles mind: "For what is
our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing
are not even We in the presence Of our
Lord Jesus Christ at his comingw They
were his "hope," for he hoped TO see
them again; his Joy" for he expected
to be happy with them in the presence Of
Christ; his "crown Of reioicing,n for he
looked forward to his reward, as the vic.
tor in the Grecian games was crowned
with the garlands Of conquest; and this
honor he should receive for his instru-
mentality in their conversion.

thus 80 sure of, concerning those whom
he should recognise in the presence OF
Christ, our Lord declares shall be equal.

[From the Southern Baptist,
Recognition in Heaven.


Many christians are disposed to hesi-
tate and doubt, as TO whether the expee.
tation of our personally meeting and OF
being reunited with kindred spirits in the
future world, is to be regarded as a mere
speculation, or whether it is to be regard
ed as doctrine distinctly revealed by In
spiration. We think that there are very
valid rules Of scripture Interpretation,
which, when allypu. togetl,er, give this
sentiment all the force Of 4 doctrine oil
christianity. E,...
We propose on this occasion, to look
at the question from single, point OF
view, namely. the personal experience Of
the Apostle Paul, as recorded in his writ.
ings. If We can clearly and unquestion.
ably comprehend the personal and men
tai experience Of this Bible writer, sur
rounded as he was with SO many rays
beaming upon him from the spiritual
world ;--and il the experience OF such a
man cannot mislead US, when he was IA
vored more, than almost any other NOR
tai, by special and frequent insights of
those unseen realms Of existence which
lie outside Of this material vail which
bounds our senses I'VE may very safely
tate the view which the apostle held as
to- reunion with friends in heaven, as
having all the authority Of an inspired
doctrine. We are on the side of com
fort and Of safety, when we can be pene-
trated with the same conviction, and can
nave the same foundation for our faith,
which Paul realised in his own expe.
rience. ..s.. 49,.
BY comparing manx declarations in
his Epistles, It is beyond a doubt that this
apostle felt an intense desire and expccta.
ton Of seeing his brethren again, no,
only in the flesh, but in the spiritual
world. He spoke, not only Of being will.
them in heart aud spirit, but in many in
stances, his language points forward TO
that spiritial reuRion which is The essen.
tial Intercourse Of all affectionate and
spiritual beings. There is wrapped up
within our interior faculties and affections,
the seed and germ Of an immortal being.
1t is upon this ineradicable sense Of the
souPs consciousness, that the primary and
inseparable conviction rests, Of our per.
sonai Immortality.
Now in the experience Of the Apostle
Paul, there Is an eminent example Of the
nndying power Of affection, which trans

state, to a state beyond the grave. Thus

BY the aid of microscope, we see mil
lions OF little openings on the surface of
our bodies. Through these this Ointment,
when rubbed on the skin, is carried to any
organ or inward part. Diseases Of the Kid
neys: disorders Of the Liver, affections of
the heart, inflammation of the Lungs, Asth-
mas Coughs and Colds, are by its means ef-
fectually cured. Every housewife knows
that salt passes freely through bone or meat
of any thickness. This healing ointment
far more readily penetratcs thro ugh any bone
or ticshy part of the living body, curing the
most dangerous inward complaints, that
cannot be reached by other means.
