OLD PSALM Tunes. is to us
more of touching pathos, heart thrilling
expression in some Of the old psalm tunes,
feelingly displayed, than in whole batch
of modernism The strains go home,
'and the foundations of the great deep are
broken up'-the great deep of unfathom-
able feeling, that lies far, far below the
surface of the world hardened heart; and,
as the unwonted yet unchecked tear starts
in the eye, the softened spirit yields to
their influence and shakes off the load of
earthly care, rising purified and spiritual
lied into clearer atmosphere. Strange,
inexplicable associations brood over the
mind, like the far-off dreams Of paradise
mingling their chaste melancholy with a
musing of still subdued, though more
cheerful character. How many glad hearts
in the olden time have rejoiced in these
songs of praise-how many sorrowful ones
sighed out their complaints in these plain
tive notes, that now, cold in death, are
laid to rest around that sacred church,
within whose walls they had SO often
swelled with emotion. -Blackpood.

proved and perfected the machinery of the Mills,
their increased conveniences enable them to

The PROSPECTIVE SUGAR Crop IN
ILLINoIs.-We find the following para
graphs in the ST. Louis MteNigeacer, of
March 18th:
Mr.. E. S. Baker, of Rochester Mills,
Wabash county, writes to the Belleville
AdUocate, that he shall plant twenty-five
acres with the Chinese sugar cane the pres
ent season. / am convinced, he says,
that the State of Illinois will in FIVE years
make her own sugar, and if [ have luck |
shall make this season enough sugar, and
certainly with molassas, to supply my little
town. At all events l shall try.
Mr.. Kroh, of Wabash county, who some
months ago made statement of the result
of his experiments with the sugar cane
last year, offers to bet the skeptical editor
of the Charleston Courier $500 that he
will manufacture from one acre, PLANTED
with the Chinese need, five hundred gal
Ions of molasses, superior article to any
manufactured in the South, and sold by
the merchants in Coles county, in 1856,
for IS cents per gallon; and further, that
he will manufacture it at a cost of 10 cents
per gallon

STRUGGLES OF THE GREAT.-There is
a milder and serener form of poverty, the
nurse of manly energy, and heaven-climb-
ing thoughts attended by Love, and Faith,
and Hope, around whose step the noun
tain brezees blow, and from whose coun-
tenances all the virtues gather strength a.
Look around you upon the distinguished
men that in every departmental life guide
and control the times-and what was their
original and early fortune? Were they,
as general rule, rocked, dandled in the
lap of wealth? No. Such men emerge
from the homes of decent competence or
struggling poverty. Necessity sharpens
their faculties, and privations and sacrifice
their moral nature. They learn the great
art of contentment, and enjoy the happi-
ness of having few wants. They know
nothing of Indifference or safety. There
is not an idle fibre in their frames. They
put the vigor of resolute purpose in every
act. The edge of their minds is always
kept sharp. In the shocks of life, men
like these, meet the softly nurtured darlings
of prosperity as the vessel Of iron meets
the vessel of porcelain.

DIR, YOUNG addresses those who have inur
ed themselves by private and improper indul-
gences i'll that secret and solitary habit which
ruins the body and mind uniting them for
either business or society. The following are
some of the sad and melancholy effects produc-
ed by early habits of youth, viz: weakness of
the back and limbs, pain in the head, dimncss
OF sight, loss of muscular power, palpitation of
the heart, dyspepsia, nervousness. irritability,
arrangement of the digestive functions, general
debility, symptoms of consumption, &C.
MENTALLY-The fearful effects upon the mind
are more to be dreaded. Loss of memory, con-
fusion OF ideas, depression of spirits, evil fore
bodings, aversion to society, self-distrust, love
of solitude, timidity, &c, are most of the evils
produced.
All persons who are afflicted with any of
the above symptoms should not fail to call on
DR.. Young, and be at once restored to perfect
health. Let no false delicacy prevent you, but
apply Immediately, and save yourself from tho
dreadfuland awful consequences of this terrible
malady.
WEAKNESS OF THE ORGANS
Immediately cured and full vigor returned.
