He who goes to bed in anger, has
the devil for his bedfellow. A wag
desires us to say that he knows mar
ried man, who, though he goes to bed
meek and gentle as lamb, is in the
same predicament.
a man should never be ashamed to
own that he has been in the wrong. 1t
is only but saying, in other words, that
he is wiser to-day than he was yester&
day.
Foppery is never cured; it is the bad
stamina of the mind, which, like those
of the body, are never rectifed; once
a coxcomb, and always eoxeomb.-

room in it than most people think. if

FoRMs.--A man may look at pane

all earthly things be unto thee as glass,

! MONoToNY UNHEALTHFUL.-An oc-
casiopal "change" of air, of scene, Of
diet, Of occupation, of thought, of
study, and Of society, is beneficial in
very many cases, especially for in
valids. Monomania, dyspepsia, debil-
ity, provincial and narrow views, and
One-ideaism, are among the evils of a
perpetual monotony.

WEATHER. WISDOM.


WEATHER WISD0K.
A rainbow in the morning
Gives the shepherd warning.
A rpinbow at night
Is the shepherds delight.
Evening red, and next morning gray,
Are certain signs Of beautiful day.
When the glow-worm lights her lamp,
The air is always damp.
If the cock goes Growing to bed
He'll certainly rise with watery head.
When you.see gossamef flying, !.
Be ye sure the air is drying.
When black snails cross your path,
Black clouds much moisture hath.
When the peacock loudly baWls,
Soon we'll have both rain and squalls:
When ducks are driven through the burn,
That night the weather takes turn.
If the moon shows like silver shield,
BE not afraid to reap your field.
Buff she rises haloed round,
Soon We'll tread on deluged ground.
When rocks fly sporting high in air,
1t shows that windy storms are near

HAPPINEss.-To which the corn
grow and the blossom set, to draw hard
breath over ploughshare or spade, to
read, to think, to love, to hope, topray
these are the things to make men
happy; they never aOM have power to
do more. The worlds prosperity or
adversely depends upon our knowing
and teaching these few things, but
upon iron or glass, or electricity or
steam, in nowise. And I am utopian
and enthusiastic enough to believe that
the time will come when the world will
discover this. 1t has now made it's
experiments in every possible direction
but the right one; and it seems that it
must at last try the right one in a
mathematical necessity. t has tried
fighting and preaching and fasting,
buying and selling, pomp and parsi-
mony, pride and humiliation-every
possible manner of existence in which
itcould conjecture there was any happi-
ness or dignity; and all the while, as
it bought; sold, and fought, and tasted
and wearied itself with policies, and
ambition, and self-denials, God had
placed its real happiness in the keeping
of the little MOSES Of the wayside and
of the clouds of the frmanent.

SELF-LovE.-It.is a poor centre of
mans actions-himself. 1t is like
earth, for that only stands fast upon its
own centre; whereas all things that
have affinity with the heavens move
upon the centre of another which they
benefit. Extreme self-lovers will set
house on fire, if it were but to roast
their eggs.

LET THE CHILDREN SINe.-The
editor of the American Magazine, in
speaking Of vocal music, says: ."All
children can learn to sing, if they COM
mence in season. In Germany every
child is taught to use its voice while
young. In their schools all join in
singing, as a regular exercise, as much
as they attend to the study of geogra-
ply; and in their churches singing is
not confined to the choir, that sits apart
from the others, perhaps in one corner
Of the house, but there is vast tide
of incense going forth to God from
every heart that can give 'utterance tC
this language from the soul. In add.
ton to the delightful influence music
has upon the character, it has also {
marked influence in suppressing pul
monary complaints. DIR. Rush uset
to say that thereason why the German
seldom die of consumption was, tina
they were always singing.

THE DUTIES OF A MOTHER.

She should be frm-gentle, kind,
always ready to attend to her child. i.
She should never laugh at him-un-
less what he does is cunning-never
allow him to think of his looks except
to be neat and clean in all his habits.
She should teach him to obey a look
to respect those older than himself,
she should never make a command
without seeing that it is performed in
the right manner.
Never speak of a child's faults or
foibles, or repeat his remarks before
him. 1t is a sure and certain way to
spoil a child.
Never reprove a child when excited,
nor let your tone of voice be raised
when correcting. Strive to inspire
love, not dread-respect not fear. Re-
member you are training and educating
a soul for eternity.
Teach your children to wait upon
themselves-to put away a thing when
done with it; but not forget that you
we're once a child. The griefs of little
ones are too often neglected. Bear
patiently with them and never in any
way rouse their anger if it can be
avoided. Teach child to be useful
whenever an opportunity may offer.

The Brave Missourians.

A correspondent Of the St. Louis Dem
Ocrat, writing from Leavenworth, says
that on The 18th, a young lady rode into
Kickapoo, visited all the stores inquiring
at one for a blue veil, where they had
none but green, and at another for a
green one, where they had none but
b'ue, and so on, until she had made the
round of the town, purchasing nothing,
then mounted her horse, and rode off,
After comparing notes, the citizens con-
she was a SPY. Accordingly FIVE
of the Rangers were sent in pursuit, (Of
one woman They overlook her riding

and that she must return with them

The Ericsson's Prize.

The London Globe, Feb. 10, has the
following:
Yesterday, about the middle of the
day, a large paddle wheel steamer, with
the American flag flying. was espied
coming up Southampton water having in
tow a large vessel apparently Dutch
As no American steamer was due some
surprise was manifested. She was soon,
however, made out, by her three tunnels,
to be the Ericsson, 1.-THE steamer on
which the famous experiment was made
in the United States Of prorelling a ship
by hot air. 1t appeared the Ericsson
was bound from New York to Havre.-
About 100 miles beyond the Sicily Isles,
in lat. SO deg. 81 min. N, Ion. s deg.
At min. W., she fell in with a Dutch
brig. with her masts and rigging seri-
ously damaged, and with a signal of dis
tress flying. The captaia of the Ericsson
resolved upon attempting to tow her into
some English port, so as to v the ship
and cargo-a valuable one. The name
of the brig is Maria DIM, her command
er's name is Diut. She was bound from
London to Smyrna, three weeks out,
and laden with wines, spirits, cables and
anchors. The ship and cargo are said
to be worth nearly E2O,OOO. The Err
lesson left Southampton for Havre last
night.

Paving Taxes Twice a Year.

The Senate Bill which authorizes col
lection of Taxes half in December, and
half in June, has been ordered to be en-
crossed. 1t is therefore probable it will
be passed by that body. We certainly
hope this provision at least, will fail in
the other Honse. We are unable to con-
ceive of any advantage which can accrue
to the people from this mode of payment,
which can counter balance the doubling
of the expense of collecting the taxes;
which cannot fail to follow the passage Of
this law. Il would be a useless burthen,
and we have no doubt but il would be
repealed after one years trial.

no desire to NEEDLE.

Pennsylvania state.Couyention.

This Convention, held at Harrisburg,
has nominated James Buchanan as a
Democratic candidate for President
This is tie same man who once declared
that if he thought he had a drop of
Democratic blood in his veins, he would
let it out.
This nomination in advance, is made
we suppose for the purpose of giving
the south to untertand that they must
nominate Buchanan, or lose P~ennsylva-
mia. Pierce has bid higher, and stopped
lower, than any other man to win south
ern favor, and Buchanan's chance is
slim.

The Atlantic was out just AZ days before

of Ireland. and her passengers brought
the news of their own safety. The Pa
ciic may still be safe, but there is great
reason to fear.
The Pacific was commanded BY Capt.
Asa Eldridge, who has navigated The
Atlantic for a quarter of a century. The
steamer was insured for 5000, 900, half
in Europe, and half in the U. S. The
Specie on board was insured for S4o,-
600, also her cargo valued at one and a
half million Of dollars, mostly insured.

der oath, for all moneys received by
them from their offices. They are TO ex-
ercise due diligence in collecting fees in
any case, till the same is passed to a
final judgment. All unpaid costs ale
