A PAINFUL SCENE.

A correspondent Of the Boston Journal
gives the following sketch ofan incident that
fell under his notice:
As painful scene met INV view IN the cars
from Philadelphia to New York, as had ey-
er seen IN my journeys. A lady and her hus-
band came into the cars at the former place,
and were seated nearus-yery respectable in
appearance, and the lady, in particular, uB-
commonly interesting. After little while
noticed strange manner ia tie gentleman,
which seemed 10 indicate lie was not in IA
yur Of the Maine Liquor Law. At every
place the cars stopped he evidently replen-
ished the vacuum in his throat by new drink,
until he could not sit without help in his seat
lie then rose hastily and went and opened
the car door, aud seated himself in ii, with
his feet hanging outside. Ills wife was much
distressed, aud tried TO prevail upon him to
come in, aud he gave her a push which almost
sent her to the floor. Two gents rose, and,
with the aid Of the conductor, he was helped
in antl placed 10 reclining position on oaa
ii the seats beneath window. lie soon ap.
parrntly fell asleep and il was enough 10
break ones heart TO see the attention tha.
that devoted wife lasislcd upon her senseless
husband. She covered him up withher shawl,
10 keep tue dust from making him uneomlort.
able il his hands fell in an unpleasant posi-.
ton, she gently replaced them, and perhaps
bedowed them with a tear. Before arriving
10 New York size seemed an xiuus to have
him wake, aud asked one Of the gents 10
please wake him, as il was strange eity.
aud she did not knew what TO do" Two or
three reused him little, and then Size went
4 to him with sweet smile. and SAYS: .Ne
/ have rot almost to New York, and am 50
glad. s0u are 80 tirei:" and he struck Lcr
IN tie face. She bad the sympathy IL all ia
the car, know. ior there was many a moist
eve among the ladies'. and many bitter loos
on mlnhoOd's check. Arrived in New York,
he would not leave the cars till be was or.
dercd by the conductor; aud her attentions
IN crossing the ferry were as AssiduUus a. eY.
er, aud met with pushes aud blows Irom her
brutal husband. Tie last saw uf her she
was 10 the statiOu.house On the New York
side, begging him 10 90 aud see to their bas.
gage. aud he answered her size was iuOl-
to mind her own business. sc. Ms travelling
companion remarked: "That j. Humanly
love. aud when he spe1ks kindly I, her agaia,
size will forget it all"

children and their teachers come
and 20 from week to week-the busy world,
meanwhile. taking no note of them; but a
mighty work is silently going on. The fall
low ground of millions Of minds is brought
under spiritual culture. The virgin soil Of
young hearts is turned up, and exposed to
the warm breath of instruction. The indi-
genous seeds Of evil are carefully sought and
eradicated. Fresh sowings are simultaneous
ly made. and an appetite for nutritious
knowledge created"
What rich fruit has this institution al
ready yielded! The Sabbath School is a nur-
sery Of national righteousness. 1t has sup
piled men of integrity for responsible stations
in society. Il has supplied the pulpit with
not few of its brightest ornaments, and given
the first impulses to many of the most dis
tinguished missionaries of modern times.
Who can compute the number Of dormant
minds it has quickened into activity--the
fine intelligences it has opened and expanded,
the virtues it has supported and nvigorated,
and the vices it has wthered and destroyeds
"lt is, moreover, the peculiar excellence
of this educational system, that il not only
develops intellect, but it develops It in the
right manner. 1t does this, not by artificial
stlmuants, forcing a precocious and sickly
growth, but by simply aiding the healthy ac-
ton Of nature. For it is not the abstract
acuteness and capacity Of any mind. but the
proper application of its powers, that should
be matter Of solicitude. splendid intel
lect prostituted to the advocacy Of error is
fearful curse, while humble talents plightel
to truth, and wisely directed, may prove an
enduring blessing"
/ Had the Sabbath no benefit to boast save
that OF educating the incipient mind OF the
working classes, this alone would entitle it
to high regard and commentator. If the
wild undcrgrowth Of youthful mind be not
carefully watched and trained in its earlier
stages Of development, subsequent efforts to
improve it, where it has attained dwarfish.
misshapen and stubborn maturity, will be un-
ayailing. For other teachers are in the field.
Life opens its bcguiling scenes. Iiarlotry
layishcs its Establishments, and weaves its
snares. Skcpticism insinuates its doubts.
Profanity next approaches, flashing its witty
tests and blasphemics. The time not spent
in labor is given to dissoluteness and sensu
ality /; and minds that, with timely training,
might have struggled into light and useful
ness, are blasted by early neglect and the
fierce onset Of youthful passions

THE BENE PLANT.


THE BENE PLANT.
We make the following extract of letter
from correspondent of the Patent Office,
dated Monroe, Washita Parish, Louisiana,
which is held in the publication in the forth
coming agricultural report. 1t treats Of the
"bene" plant, from which oil Of a pure qss-
Iity is produced in great abundance:
In l843 sent sixteen bushels Of seeds Of
the bpne plant (sesamttm orienfaie) to mill
in Cincinnati 10 be manufactured into oil.
1t yielded thirty-ninc gallons Of clear oil, and
about five quarts Of refuse oil, or about two
and a half gallons to the bushel.
In consequence of the mill imparting the
flavor of fiax-seed, could not use it as a sa.
lad oil, for which purpose am confident il
would be superior, when pure, to the adulte-
rated imported olive oil. used il, however,
as substitute for castor oil. and gave con.
siderable quantity Of it away for that purpose.
All who used il praised ithighly, both for its
gently purgative effect and from being free
from the nauseous taste peculiar to castor
/ oil.
| | cannot state with certainty how much
seed this plant will produce TO the acre, but
believe that twenty bushels is a moderats
estimate.
The leaf Of the plant is an excellent RENE
dy for bowel complaints in children, and ale,
in adults. For this purpose, two or thre'
leaves are put in tumbler Of water, which
they Immediately render mucilaginous, but
impart no disasreeable taste. The negroes
cultivate it for food, using the parched seed,
with their meats.
consider il so useful that few stalks a
least should be raised in every garden. And
y | believe il will soon be extensively culti,at
cd for manufacturing oil, yielding, as it does
about gallon to bushel more than flax
seed.

CoTTos MANUFACTURE IN THE SouTH.-An
able writer, in northern periodical, has IA
ken up this subject, and shows very conclu-
siyely that the Southern States ought to be-
come the manufacturers, rs well as the pro-
durers, Of cotton Tor the world. From facts
furnished BY this writer, it appears that the
cotton manufacture makes up nearly one half
Of the external trade of the British Kingdom.
The United States furnish iour-ftths Of the
six hundred millions Of pounds imported into
Great Britain. The writer proves, by Stats
tics and figures, that the British manutactu-
rer receives five times rs much for convert
ing the cotton into cloth, as the farmer for
producing the raw material, and both employ
the same amount Of capital. 1t appears that
the same dsproporton exists between the
profits Of the Southern planter and the north
ern manufacturer. The writer then sets forth
the great advantage possessed by the South
ern planter for manufacturing, aud shows that
the mere saving in the transportation would
go largely to the payment Of the manufacture
lie urges that instead Of increasing the pro-
duct, already too great, the true Southern
policy is to enter largely into the manuiac
turc, and thus withdraw portion oi the la
Dor engaged in the production, and employ
it in the more profitable mode oi manutac'
tGres.

their whistle in the cause Of Improvement,
and summoning their followers to the State
Agricultural Fairs That many of them are
not engaged in agricultural pursuits, is no
excuse for neglect of this duty. II is well
known that professional men have much sci,

it, make the best farmers; and, moreover,
their interest is 50 interviewer with manual
