NEVER GIVE uP.-Whu IRE our rich
men! our distinguished mcu'--our
most useful men! Those who have
been cast down, but not destroyed
who, when the breeze of adversely
swept away their props, sought new
standards-pushed on--looked up
and became what you behold them
now. A glorious sentence and worthy
to be inspired-Ncrer gice up' Men
are not made-they make themselves.
A steady perseverance, determin-
alton never to sink, though millstones
were hanged about their ncck--is the
true doctrine. 1t is this that has made
the wilderness to blossom, that has
given wings to the ocean, filed valleys,
levelled mountains, and built up the
great cities of the world.

WHO ARE YOUR ARIsTOCRATs.

Twenty years ago this one made
candles, that one sold cheese and but
ter, another butchercd, q fourth thriv-
cd on q distillery, another was con-
tractor on canals, others We're mer-
chants and mechanics. They were
acquainted with both ends of society
as their children will be after them
though it will not do to say that loud.
For often you shall find that these toll
ing worms hatch butterllies-and they
live about year. Death brings a d.
vision of property, and it brings new
fnanciers--the old gent is discharged,
the young gent takes his revenues and
begins to travel toward poverty, which
be reaches before death, or his chill
dren do if he does not. So that in fact,
though there is q sort of monicd race,
1t IS not hereditary; 1t IS accessible to
ail--thrcc good seasons Of cotton will
send a generation Of men up, and a
score Of years will bring them all
down and their children to labor. The
father grubs and grows rich, the chill
dren strut and spend the money. The
children in turn inherit their pride and
go to shiftless poverty; next their chill
dren re-invigorated by fresh plebian
blood and by the smell of labor come
up again, Thus society, like a tree,
draws its sap from the earth, changes
it into leaves and spreads them abroad
in great glory, sheds them off to fall
baci: to the earth, again to minglc with
the soil, and at length to reappcar in
new dress and fresh garniture.

MAY.DAY...FLORA'S FESTIVAL.

We had the pleasure OF beng pres
cnt, on Friday night, at the perform
,ucc of Flora's Festival" by the
"GIec Class" of Mary Sharp College.
10 say we were pleased would be to
express ourself very family. Such a
number of sweet voices singing in
GOOD tune and perfect consonancc,
was rare treat, no doubt, to all who
attended.
There was a "goodly companic" as
scmbled, and all exhibited the poitcst
attention. In fact. we were glad to
see that the right kind Of a congrega-
ton was there to appreciate the praise
worthy efforts Of Prof. Porter and his
Interesting class Of scholars. There
were many songs, Duets, quartetts,
.chorusscs, &c, sung, and some Of them
were really very beautiful. We will
only mention a few !:
Flora--a solo, by Miss S. T. Roach.
The Forcstcys-solo and chorus; solo
by J. L. Porter.
water NymphS-soIo with vocal ac-
compartment; 500 by Miss A. w.
GriSham.
THE E'o,hy Waves are RoIljng-chorus
before the storm.
Storm SpUit-solo by Prof. Spencer.
Many other pieces might be men
toned as being equally entertaining
and perhaps more liked by other aud
far better Judges Of music than our
self.
The 'UIcc Glass" was commenced a
few months since by Prof. Porter. 1t
numbers some 80 or 40 Young ladies,
who meet and practice enc evening IN
each week, yet without infringing on
their regular study hours.
As"ApriI did not provide for May
the young ladies could not adora the
room with flowers &c, rs they intend
cI, but, with the exception Of tie rain
that 50 untimcly fell, the evening
passed oil equally as well.
