But about settling ones debts there is no neet
to call in the aid Of any outside advisers We
know what we owe, and whom; or, if we dc
not, are in fair way. "abont this time" as the
al,nanacs say, TO find out. The surest way DIDO
ing good with our money is to meet our engage
ments, and particularly such sums as are due to
small tradesmen and dealers whose ability to
pay depends upon the punctuality of their Gus
mers. Laborers of all classes and of both sexes
should especially be considered, and no small
accounts left unsettled. BY promptness in meet
ing little affairs not only are the heavier opera
tions of commerce facilitated, but the amount OF
pauperis,n and suffering is lessened; so that
the punctuality in business becomes the most ef-
fective of charities. He whose bills receivable
are all cashed, has power to be just and ability
to be generous. Where the laborer is neither
defrauded of his hire nor delayed in receiving
it, want is kept from his door; and strict sys-
tenn of cash dealing in petty transactions is one
of the best and most efftctual preventives OF
pauperism; for it is upon these seemingly un-
important things that large class depend for
their livelihood Many pauper might heartily
agree to De Quincey's scale of progressive crime,
for poverty produced by want of punctuality
seems to those who suffer, verse than murder

An Irishman,s Letter.

The following is true copy OF q letter re-
ceived in Boston from across the water:
T1pERARY, IRELAND, March 25, 1853.
My DEAR NEPHEW u have not heard any,
thing from We sens the last time | wrote to ye
| have moved from the place where | now live
or should have written to you before. DID
not kno where letter mite find You first, but
now take my pens in hand to drop you few
lines to inform ye of the deth of your own liv-
ing uncle Fitzpatrick. He died very suddenly
after q long lingering illness of six months
Poor man, he suffered CRATE deal. He lay
long time in commissions perfectfully speechless,
all the time talking incoDherently and inqulring
for water. Pm very much at loss to tell ye
what his deth is occasioned at, but the doctor
thinks it was occasioned by his last sickness for
he was not well ten days at o time during his
confinement His age ye kno jist as well as
can tell ye-he was twenty-five years old last
March, lacking fifteen months, and if he had
lived till this time he would been six months ded
jist.
/ N.B.-take notis enclose tin pound note
which your father sends to You unbenone to me-
Your mither often spaks of ye-she wud like to
send ye the Brindle cow and wud enclose her
till We but for the horruns.
wud beg ov ye not to brake the sale ov this
letter until two or three days after ye read It,
for which time yell be betther prepared for the
sorrowful news.

NEVER REpREss Your TEARs.-A lengthy
dissertation has recently been published by
phisician in France, on the beneficial influence
of groaning and crying on the nervous system
He contends that groaning and crying are the
two grand operations by which nature allays
angnish-that he has uniformly observed that
those patients who give way to their natural teel-
ings sooner recover from accidents and operations
than those who suppose that it it is unworthy
a man to betray such symptoms of cowardlce as
to groan and cry He is always pleased. by the
violent roaring of n patieut during the time he
is undergoing violent Surgical operation, be-
cause he is satisfied that he will thereby soothe
his nervous system so as TO prevent fever, and
insure favorable termination. He relates the
case of q man who by crying and bawling, re-
duced his pulse from one hundred and twenty
six to sixty, in the course of two hours That
SONS patients often have great satisfaction IN
groaning, and that hysterical patients experience
great relief from crying, are facts that no per-
sons will deny. AS to restless and hypochon-
driacal subjects, or those who are never happy
but when under some course of medical or diet
etic treatment, the French surgeon assures
them that they cannot do better than groan
all day and cry all night

A LESSON to FRENoH MorHERs.-A person in
rather high position has just obtained from the
Civil Tribunal of the Seine separation from his
wife, with the right of keeping his child in con-
sequence of the following circumstances The
child had the measles and its medical attend
ant declared its life to be in danger, but the
mother, nevertheless continued to prepare her
toilette for an evening party to which she had
been invited. "1'ou cannot leave the child, who
is dying" exclaimed the husband. The wife
replied that it was impossible for her to re- re-
main away from the party without breaking her
promise, and being guilty of a want of polite,
ness. The husband then informed her that if
she carried her intent into execution the door
would be closed against her on her return. The
wife left for the party, but on her return homo
was refused admittance. The tribunal has de-
cided that the husband was perfectly justified,
and has furthermore ruled that wife who for
sakes her child in illness forfeits her copjugal
rights

SINGULAR IDENTIFICATION OF PROPERTY
singular case of Identification of property re-
Gently occurred in the Supreme Court. Mrs
Margaret Farrell brought an action against
Daniel Coughlin to recover COW. ltwas prov
ed that the husband of Mrs Farrell, before he
died, inserted a five cent piece under a certain
portion of the cows hide, so that in case the an,
imal was stolen, it could be identified without
any trouble. Mr.. Farrell died and the cow wa:
stolen. The place where the silver was inserted
was cut open and the money found, and the ju,
ry being satisfied to whom the animal belonged
returned verdict restoring the cow to Mrs
Farrell and awarding SO damage.-BOst0n

PO ETRY Y


From the Central Christian Advoeate
The following is said to be the best Engli
translation of the celebrated Marselles hymn
Rise sons of France, with ardor glowing!
The day of glory has appeared!
Do YOU not see the banner flowing,
BY tyranny against us reared?
Do We not hear the shouts of laughter
Yell'd forth by the ferocious race,
Who come to stab, in our embrace,
The friend, the wife, the son, the.daughter?
To arms, my countrymen
To battles firm array;
March on to pour their blood impure
To arms, my countrymen
What projects are those traitors, sharing,
With traitors, slaves, and king combineds
Those chains that they have been preparing
So long, for whom they are designed!
Ye SONS of France, for you perdition!
What fury should within you burn
'Tis YOU, tits you they bid return,
To grovel in slaves submission
To arms, my countrymen
Good God! and shall the hireling stranger
Profane our dear domestic hearth?
And our proudest chiefs in danger
Of being spurred by slaves to earth?
Beneath the weight of fetters bending,
Shall we, at our oppressors back,
In homage bow the knee and neck,
On them as on our Gods depending
To arms, my cOuntrymen
Tremble, We administrations, tremblel
By even those you serve abhorrd!
Ye parricides! behold assemble
The terrors of your just reward!
All start to be delivered from you
And if our youthful heroes fall,
France from her womb shall others call,
Like Pallas armed to overcome YOU
To arms, my countrpmen
Ye sons of France while bravely giving,
The blow, as nobly to forbear;
These miserable victims driven
Unwilling against us spare,
But let your grasp of vengeance smother
Those monsters who, like beasts Of prey,
Would rend the bosom of their mother!
To arms, my countrymen
Spirit that in the patriot shinest!
We claim thee for our shield and guide,
And then, oh Liberty divinest
Come battle at thy champions side
Victory shall DER our banners hover
When summoned in thy manly tone
Come, see our triumph and thine own,
Thy falling foes exulting over.
To arms, my countrymen!

remarks that in the time of George the Fourth,
that monarch used to be amused with the story
of Staffordshire coal miner, who being rearer
of bull dogs in that vicinity once attempted to
Justify his brutal treatment Of his wife on the
ground that "she had refused to suckle her pup"
And now in the same district no charge OF un-
filial cruelty is laid against the smith who, when
rearing bull-pup, induced his father to 60 on
ali fours and initiate the bull, and who was SO SO
delighted at seeing the canine pupil pin the old
man by the nose, as to disregard the paterInal
roaring, and to exclaim, "Hold him, Growler,
boy, hold him bear it, feyther, bear it twili

traits to be found in the iron and coal districts
in the neighborhood of Wolyerhampton. =

LIABILITIES OF RAILROAD COMPANIES FOR
STocK KnLEp.-The Supreme Court OF Illinois
has made an important decision, in reference to
the liability of railroad companies for cattle
killed on their roads. The following is sy-
nopsis of the decision:
Trespass ci ct armis. is not the proper form
of action for injuries, resulting from the negli-
gence of the servants of a corporation; tresspass
on the case is the proper action, of which q JUS
tice of the peace has no jurisdiction.
Animals wandering upon the track OF an un-
nclosed railroad are strictly trespassers and the
COMPANY is not liable for their destruction, ex-
cept its servants are guilty of wilful negligence,
Leyincipp reckless misconduct.
The burden of proof is on the plaintitf,t to show
negligence. The mere fact that an animal was
killed will not render the company liable
In order to show the manner in which rail,
road trains are conducted, witnesses acquainted
with their management, must be examined.
In previous case the same tribunal Is sald 10
have decided, that railroad company is not
bound to fence in its track, that cattle wander
ing upon the track ofa railroad are strictly tress-
passers :" and that the company are not liable
unless its employees, are guilty OF wlliul or
wanton injury, or of gross negligence, eylncing
reckless or wilful mismanagement
