TRUE BGAvERY-The circumstances con-
nccted with the lost OF the British steamer,
Birkenhead, on the coast of Africa, not many
months since, are still fresh in The memo
ries ofal. The steamer struck on hidden
rock, stove n plank at the bows, and went
to the bottom, we believe, in half mn hours
time. There was n regiment of troops on
board. As soon ms the alarm was given and
it became apparent that the ships fate was
sealed, the roll Of the drum called the sol
ders to arms on the upper deck. That call
was promptly obeyed, though every gnllant
heart there knew that it was his death sum
mons. There they stood as If in baltic
array-a motonless mass OF brave men
who were men indeed. The ship every mo-
mcnt was going down and down; but there
were no traitors, no deserters, no cravens
there The women and children were got
into the boats for the troors-but there
was no panic, no blanched pale, quivering
lips among them. Down went the ship and
down went that heroic band, shoulder to
shoulder, firing feu de joie as they sank
beneath the waves. Men like these never
perish; their bodies may be given to the
fishes of the sea, but their memories are, as
they ought to be immortal.

THE POST.
.TTENs, FRIDAY, JUNE 4, 1858.

A Homg.-If we were to tell number Of
our friends that they don't Know what
home is, they would grow somewhat indig-
nant; perhaps use hard words. And yet il
may be remarked, that the number Of per-
sons who know what genuine home is, by
experience, is surprisingly few. One man in
GOOD circumstances will tell US that he has
fine house of his own,in which every comfort
and convenience are provided. He has Il
wife and children there also, and they give
life to the place. Very true. But does he
prefer that home thus furnished aud thus en-
lvened, 10 every other place in the world!-
Does he sigh when the hour for leaving
comes, and smile when he is permitted to re-
turn! Does he love to sit by the cheerful
fire and fonde the children, entering into all
their little disputes with curious INTEREST,"
Does he take particular note Of the bird in
the cage and the cat near the fire? lfnot, he
has no home, in the dearest sense of that
dearest of words. If his mind is altogether
absorbed in the dusty ways Of business--if
he hurries from the house in the morning,
and is 10th to return at night-if, while he is
at home, he continues to think Of the jour
nal and ledger, and repulses the advances of
the pratling children, he has no home; he
only has place where he lodges and takes his
meals.

COMMON THIsGS.-MIsDIRECTED INDUSTRY.
The London correspondent of the National
Intelligencer, says:
One of the best things produced during
the week is lecture by Lord Ashburton
on "Common Things" which he has issued
to the schoolmasters and schoolmistresses
of Hants and Willis. We give short ex-
tract upon misdirected intelligence, which
we think is particularly good. His Lord
ship says:
"If had spaceI would attempt to show
you that it is not in the Crimea only, but
that in our fields, in our towns, at our very
thresholds, are t6be found The same fatal
results of misdirected intelligence would
take YOU on that sea, which We claim rs our
element, and show you the sails of our mer-
chant men cut against all rule of science 10
hold the wind rather than to stand flat as a
board; | would take you amid the high priced
stock of our farms and show you that the
medical attendance to which their care is
entrusted is as inferior TO the instructed
veterinary practitioner as was the surgeon
barber OF Queen Elizabeth's time TO AstIev
Cooper or Brodie of the present; ] would
show you our churches built without re-
ference 10 acoustics, our palaces without
regard to ventilation; would show you our
mechanics institutes departing from the
wise intention of Dr. Birkb beck, their founder,
and wasting noble aspirations after knowl-
edge by dilettanti lectures upon useless friv-
olilies. All this misdirected industry in
manhood is the fruit of the msdirected bias
impaired in childhood. You are answer.
able for that bias; may your efforts be sue

tbs CHEAPEST .Fooo.-One hundred
pounds of good wheat -four contain 80
pounds of pure nutriiive matter and 10
pounds of water. One hundred pounds of
potatoes contain from 20 to 25 pounds Of nu-
trtive matter depending upon tho quality
of the potatoes say 22i pounds upon an av-
erage consisting almost entirely of starch,
and 77i pounds of water and inert matter
1t requires, therefore, exactly four hundred
pounds of potatoes to supply the same
amount Of nutriment that one hundred
pounds of wheat flour supply. The best po-
taloes weigh about Ga pounds to the bushel;
and bushel contains Is pounds of nu-
triment. AT two dollars per bushel, or fifty
cents peck, the retail price lately in our
markets, the nutritive portion of potatoes
costs fraction over thirteen cents a pound,
which is equivalent to twenty three dol
lars and fifty cents for barrel of good
flour. While -four has doubled in price
only, potatoes have increased at fourfoId
rate.

OLD song.

Gather the rose-buds while you may,
Old Time is still flying
And this same flower that smiles to-day,
Tomorrow will be dying. }
The glorious lamp Of heaven, the sun,
The higher he's a getting
The sooner will his race be run;
The nearer he's to setting.
The age is best which is the first:
When youth and blood are warmer;
But being spent, the worse and worst
Time still succeed the former.
