paid to the United States by the Costa

Nicaragua was tranquil, and would
be occupied by the four Central Amer
lean States until a government shall
be firmly established. The same cor
respondent states that the reason OF
Davis interference in behalf OF
Walker, was letter in Walkers
handwriting being found on a spy,
addressed to Mcdonald, the agent Of
the Nicaraguan steamer, stating that
he was reduced to extremity, and
begging them for the use OF u steam

AHuyonY CARPET BAG.

The Buffalo Express relates an
amusing incident which occurred at
Erie, q few days since. A gentleman
left Cleveland for New York at an
early hour in the morning, without
his breakfast, and being very hungry,
upon the arrival of the train 1T Eric,
entered the dining-room, and placing
his carpet-bag upon q chair, sat down
beside it and commenced valorous
attack upon the viands placed before
him.
By-and-by the proprietor of the
establishment came around to collect
fires, and upon reaching our friend,
calculated: 80
"Dollar, siri''
ga dollarI'' responded the eating
man, "a dollar thought you only
charged fifty cents a meal, for one,
chr
THAT'S true" said Meanness, "bui
l count your carpet-bag one, since
it occupies seat"
The table was far from being crowd
ed. Our friend expostulated, but the
landlord insisted and the dollar was
reluctantly brought forth. The land
lord passed on. Our friend deliber
ately arose, and opening his carpet
bag, full in its wide mouth, discours
ed unto it saying;
"Carpet-bag, II seems you're an in
dividual human Individual, sine,

phlegmatically went and took his sea

He said no had provisions enough
to last him to New York, after

the landlord realized nothing in tn

CoMETH A BLESSING DOWN.
BY M. +. TYLER.

III M. r. i Lbh'
Not to the man of dollars,
Not to the man Of deeds,
Not to the man of cunning,
Not to the man Of creeds;
Not to the man whose passion
Is for a worlds renown,
Not in the form of fashion,
Cometh blessing down.
Not unto lands expansion,
Not to the miser's chest.
Not to the princely mansion,
Not to the blazoned crest;
Not to the sordid worldling,
Not to the knavish clown,
Not to the naughty tyrant,
Cometh a blessing down.
Not to the folly blinded,
Not to the stepped in shame,
Not to the carnal minded,
Not to unholy fame;
Not in neglect Of duty,
Not in the monarch's crown,
Not at the smile of beauty,
Cometh q blessing down.
But to the one whose spirit
Yearns for the great and good,
Unto the one whose storehousc
Yieldeth the hungry food;
Unto the one whose labors,
Fearless of foe or frown;
Unto the kindly hearted,
Cometh a blessing down.

ToADs.-Never destroy the toad. We
are assured that "nothing is made in vain,"
and very slight knowledge of natural histo-
ry will show us that even the toad-the most
universally deprecated of all reptiles, per-
haps, with the exception Of the viper-may
be Of some use. In the first place we dis
cover that toads feed on all kinds of grubs
and worms; consequently they serve to pro-
tect the vegetable kingdom from the ravages
of its most iusiduous and destructive foes.
The pestferous canker worm, is a favorite
worm with him, and he devours indiscrimi-
nately, all kinds of garden grubs, and in large
numbers, for his dilating powers and capacity
of deglutition almost rival those of the ana
conda-craving only the protection of turf
or chip, he labors incessantly for mans bene-
fit, and demands for his invaluable services
no reward.
The antipathy cherished by some towards
the toad is the consequence of perverted
views and should be corrected. In itself it
is a source Of misery to those by whom it is
INDUCED, and the cause of cruelty to the in
nocent and unotfending. Hence it is dis
grace to our nature, which, Illuminated by
the divine scintillations Of science, should
see beyond the binding mists Of prejudice,
and recognize the wisdom and good
ness of Providence even in its most abjsct
creations. Cowper, the poet Of nature, dis
courses admirably upon the subject.

The State Fair.

The business committee of the State Ag-
ricultural Society after examining carefully
the proposition relative to the location of the
grounds have decided that it is for the best
interests Of the Society that the Fair should
be held this year on the same ground at
Hamtramck at which it was held last season.
We shall publish the whole programme of
operations next month, as it is not yet fully
made out
There will be no female equestrianism
This notion has been given up, and we think
it a judicious and proper determination on
the part of the committee.
There will be no match of horses, but their
speed will be tried with reference to time
alone. Arrangements will be made so that
sufficient boats will be put on between the
city and Hamtramck landing to render the
Fair easy Of access. The landing is to be
extended; SO that running aground will be
out of the question. The general arrange
ment for each days business will be some
what similar to that of last year.
The experience of last season has not been
lost on the committee, and Mr.. Horace
Welch, the chairman, is applying himself
with all his well known energy, backed by
last years experience, to get up fair ground
and arrangements which will give general
satisfaction. Michigan Farmer.

GONG TO SLEEP.-It is delicious mo-
ment certainly, that of being well nestled in
bed, and feeling that you can gently fall to
sleep. The good is to come-not passed (;
the limbs have just been tried enough to rem
der the remaining in one position delightful; /;
the labor of the day is gone. A gentle fail
ure Of the perception creeps over you, the
spirit Of consciousness disengages itself more
and more, and with slow and hushing de-
grees, like mother detatching her hand
from that of her sleeping child, the mind
seems to have balmy lid cover it like the
eye-'tis closed. The mysterious spirit has
gone to take its airy rounds.

To KEEP BUTTER HARD AND CooL.-A
writer in the Scientific American recommends
to the ladies very simple arrangement for
keeping butter nice and cool in the hottest
weather. Procure large new fowerpot of
sufficient size to cover the butter plate, and
also saucer large enough for the fowerpot
to rest in upside down; place trivet or meat
stand (such as is sent to the oven when a
joint is baked) in the saucer, and put on this
trivet the plate of butter; now fill the saucer
with water, and turn the fowerpot over the
butter, so that its edge will be below the wa
ter. The hole in the fowerpot must be fit
ted with cork; the butter will then be in
what we may call an air-tight chamber. Let
the whole Of the outside Of the fowerpot be
then thoroughly drenched with water, and
place it in as cool place as you can. If this
be done over night, the butter will be as firm
as a rock" at breakfast time; or, if placed
