Aphorisms by DR.. johnson.

People may be taken in once, who
imagine that an author is greater in
private lie than other men. I'M
common parts require uncommon
opportunities for their exertion.
Grand nonsense is insupportable.
would not advise rigid adher-
cnce to a particular plan Of study.
| myself have never persisted in any
plan two days together. A man
ought to read just as inclination
leads him; for what he reads as q
task will do him little good. A young
man should road five hours day /;
and so may acquire a great deal OF
knowledge.
There is nothing too little for so
little a creature as man. II is by
studying little things that we attain
the great art Of having as little mis-
cry and US much happiness as posi-
BILE.
Every man prefers virtue when
there ia not some strong incitation to
transgress it's precepts.
Every desire is viper in bosom,
who, while he was chill was harmless;
but when warmth gave him strength,
exerted it IN poison.
Men can be estimated by those
who know them not, only as they are
represented by those who know
them.
We must confess the faults Of our
favoriie in order to obtain credit to
our praises of his excellences.
The longer we live and the more
we think, the higher value we learn
to put on the friendship and tender.
ness Of parents and friends.
Happiness consists in the multi
plicity Of agreeable consciousness.
So far is it from being true that
men are naturally equal, that no two
people can be half an hour together,
but one shall acquire an evident su'
periority over the other.
He that voluntarily continues in
ignorance, is guilty ofall the crimes
which ignorance produces.

oiall happy households, that is
the happiest where falsehood is never
thought Of. All peace is broken up
when it happens that there is liar
in the house. All comfort has gone
when suspicion has once entered
when there must be reserve in the
talk and reservation in belief. Anx.
ions parents, who are aware Of the
pains OF suspicion, will place general
confidence in their children; and re-
ceive what they say freely, unless
there is strong reason to distrust the
truth Of any. II such an occasion
should unhappily arise, they must
keep the suspicion from spreading
as long as possible, and avoid dis
gracing their poor child while there
is chance ofits cure by their conf.
Dental assistance. He should have
their pity and assiduous help, as if
no were suffering under some DISCUS
ting bodily disorder. If he can be
cured lie will become truly grateful
tor the treatment. II the eDdeavor
fail, means must OF course be taken
to prevent his example from doing
harm. and then, az said the family
peace is broken up, because the fam
lly confidence is gone.

In the Senate nothing of consequence was done
yesterday.
In the House, the matters of principal interest
were the resolutions of Mr.. Davie and Mr.. RoWies,
offered some days since, in relation to the further
extension Of State aid to internal improvements
Mr. Davies resolution pledging the Legislature to
make no further appropriations was laid on the I'd

carry out its engagements with such Railroads as
have nerformed the conditions under which they
are entitled to aid by the present lawe and with
holding aid in other cases, we're taken up for con-
sideration. Some discussion ensued, and some
amendments offered, which indicate considerable
diversity of opinion, shades Of opinion on this
all-important subj ct. The current of sentiment is
manifestly against further extension OF State ad;
but there appear to be differences as TO the precise
point at which the State liability should be uneon-
ditionally stopped. The question promises to afford
q very large fund of discussion, and we may ex-
pect many speeches on it before the session encs.

The Mechanics Fair


Continues to draw well, notwithstanding the nov
city has worn off. We noticed Monday evening
new entry in the shape of piece of silk embroidery
by Miss B. NJ. CAREY, of Campbell County, Tenn.
1t took the premium at the State Fair, and was
far ahead of anything of the kind on exhibition at
either fair. 1t was so well done that it resembIed,
and, at a short distance could scarcely be diStn-
guished from a painting.
We-uoticed an addition to the Pianos, hand
some one from the mandatory OF Steinway
Sons, having been entered by Mr.. j. A. Mcclure
These instruments are becoming very popular
NJ Jackers & Co. have harnessed up their little
iron horse, and found it Monday night turning,
one Of Sedgebeer's mills, which ground admirably.
Our friends Armstrong & Co. are Agents for the
sale of these mills Besides this mill they have on
exhibition, "Barnhill's Seed Drill" "Snclar &
Maynards patent screw propeller Straw and Fodder
Cutter" and G. c. Miller's Eagle Steel Plough
These all useful articles, and deserve the atten-
ton of the farming community.
The Cedar Ware from the mandatory of Mr.. ].
II. o'Neal, of Shelbyville, entered by Lellyett
Ewing Co., is superbly finished, and excellent in
all respects. 1t strikes that this ought to
drive the miserable painted stuff brought from
abroad, out of the market.
Mr. J. Il. Hendricks display of Chandeliers and
other gas fixtures, has attracted much observation.
They are truly elegant.
We have heretofore mentioned some of the arti-
cles exhibited by Mackenzie Wilson, but omitted
Inadvertently those superior samples q Britannia
Coffee Urns, Tea Pots. Covered Dishes, &c, which
are of the finest quality and workmanship. In this
department, Mcclure, Buck Co. also make an e1-
hbiton every way worthy OF the attention the ar.
ticles receive
There numerous other things to occupy those
who visit the fair, which We have not mentioned,
because to do so would take space than we
can afford. They speak for themselves, however.
