government, but We dare cay it has never been car

first Of them, is the Honorable JACOB THOMPSON,

He received bis commission at Washington, and
was dispatched to Minne,ota to get off bis party.
But the Art Of the Secretary was brought to bear
from the very beginning. He sent Mr.. Noble away,
with abundant Instructions, indeed, but without a

some seventy men, with thirty horses, forty mules,

" iniure the flower that had been taken as

" iniure the flower that had been taken as
a memento from the bosom of the dead ?
1t needed not to be said how much art
was feholden to flowers. It had gone to
them for form and color, and the fairest
ideas the artist had of color were attained
from the study of their many hues. The
man who studied them thoroughly had a
better idea of the theory of artistic develop
ment, and better practical hold upon its
details.
Flowers had added great deal to thought
and philosophy. He believed he could trace
their effect in some of the most abstruse
writings, and he did not think he could find
a more beautiful instance of this than in the
old Puritan writer, Jonathan Edwards
Metaphysicians and philosophers were in
debted to flowers.
Flowers should have part in the furnish
ing of every house, particularly where there
were children. In respect to the cultivation
of flowers, it was wise and good dispo
sition of a mans wealth to send to every
corner of the world to gather plants. 1t
was making no unwise disposition of the
wealth God had given us to use it in culu-
vating flowers. He would not say we ought
not TO give the poor assistance, but at the
same time we ought not to neglect flowers,
but should teach the poor that there are
higher relishes for them than those of COM
mon appetite and the man who owned
garden, and would not let people come into
it, was hunks. (Laughter.)
Country people could always have flowers
enough, without being indebted to any one.
They could always find them on the trees
and shrubs; they could always obtain beau
tiful wild flowers, and if they were not quite
so rare and fine as the garden flowers, yet
God had thrown open the gates of his free
kindness so that no man was so poor, except
he was so very poor as to live in city, that
he could not get flowers, and as many as he
pleased.
There was literature of fruit, but time
forbade him to enter upon its discussion
Fruit needed no eulogy from him, for it was
not only very beautiful to the eye, but it was
pleasant to the taste which God has impant
ed in man, and thus, having double tongue,
could speak for itself.

The Yankees in the crimea.

We met recently, VIM. Leland of New
York, who has returned from the Crimea,
where with his associates, he has been en-
gagged in raising the Russian ships sunk at
Sebastopol. He reports the operation a
good one financially. Many articles are
raised in perfect state. Chains, anchors,
guns, rigging, and many valuable things
are entirely uninjured, but the hulls
of the vessels are badly worm eaten.
There are two companies on the ground
one from New York, and the other from
Boston. They have united their operations
have between them four vessels, and have
ninety-seven Americans engaged in the op-
erations. When he left, there were but
two of these on the sick list. Quite a
large number of Russians are also employ
ed at about 80 cents a day. The compan-
les have half of what they raise, the other
half going to the Russian Government,
which also stands ready to purchase any
thing of value that falls to the lot of the
companies. 1t is regular Yankee opera
ton, and very good exemplifcation of the
enterprise of the American.-iSprinQffe

Southern Rocks.

One of the great works proposed by the
Southern Commercial Convention" was
the preparation of text books for Southern
literary institutions, as the acknowledged
sentiments of the civilized world, taught by
Wayland and others, were deemed obsolete
by that progressive body. A committee was
appointed to do this important work, and
were to meet in Columbia, S. G. Il inclu-
ded some of the most noted literary names
of the South. Ii has been a total failure,
and our confrere of the New Orleans Aduo-
cate satirizes it, and says: ''The Conven-
ton for getting up Southern school books, is
a failure. On the 18th of May, not one of
their Committee met in Columbia, S. G. a
gentleman of this city, who sent on the
manuscript of text book for their exami-
nation, had it returned TO him by the Post
master of Columbia, with the words that
mot man or dog was there, !" This fierce
determination to ignore the sentiments of
all Christendom, is a wretched farce of
Southern demagogues. We doubt not that
the comman sense of the South generally
bushes for it. The sreformers are at
tempting miracle fight against the in
eyitable laws of the moral world their folly
cannot fail to react sooner or later.-CAriS-

A MOUNTAIN OF SALT-REMARKABLE
DIscovERY-It seems that the resources of
our noble State viii never cease developing.
Something great or wonderful is constantly
turning up. The last discovery is speci-
men of salt rock handed rs yesterday by
Mr. Nettleton, clerk of the steamer Garvin.
1t was taken from hill, or mountain of the
same material, just discovered short dis
tauce from the Mississippi River, on the Mis-
souri, side and about seventy-two miles from
ST. Louis. It is situated on Saline Creek
in Perry County, and almost on line di-
viding that county from st. Geneivieve
county. Saline Creek empties into the Mis-
sissippi River, about three and half miles
below st. Mary's landing.
The specimen resembles piece of quartz
rock, and is little mixed with a substance
resembling iron ore. 1t has a pure, sweet
taste, and when ground to powder is as
white as any of the table salt now in gem
eral use. If we are not misinformed, this
hill of salt win prove an immense specula-
ton to its owners. and will cheaper the
price of the article very materially in this
city.-No. Dem.

Proposed Amendment;

1t is proposed in Illinois to amend the
law of marriage SO as to require that the
prospective husband and wife, on any given
day, enter in the office of any officer legally
empowered to do such a duty, a written
declaration of intention to become man
and wife. From that day, for one year,
let them associate as lovers, or break the
engagement if they choose; then, at the
end of the year, if they again express their
determination to become husband and wife,
let the contract be sealed.
This is all nonsense. Its only effect, if
adopted, would be to remove the ceremony
and the fee out of the State. Besides which,
the attempt to compel years probation
would in nine, cases out of ten precipitate the
consummation of the union, even with par
ties who, otherwise, might take their time
and wait longer than even the law would de-
mand; such is the perversity of lover-na-
ture, when obstructed by barriers and OBJ
jections.
This legislating upon courtship cannot
be made practicable-the law might as well
attempt to limit the number of children it
viii allow to each married couple.

Struggles of the Great.

There is milder and serener form of
poetry, the nurse of manly energy and hea-
climbing thoughts. attended by Love
and Faith and Hope, around whose steps
the mountain breezes blow, and from whose
countenanees all the virtues gather strength.
Look around you upon the distinguished
men that in every department of life guide
and control the times, and what was their
original and early fortune? Were they, as
a general thing, rocked and dandled in the
cradle of wealth No. Such men emerge
from the homes of decent competence or
struggling poverty. Necessity sharpens
the faculties. and privations and sacrifice brace
their moral nature. They learn the great art
of abstinence, and enjoy the happiness of hay-
ing few wants. They know nothing of indif-
ference or safety. There is not an idle
fibre in their frame. They put the vigor of
a resolute purpose in every act The edge
of their mind Is always kept sharp. In the
shocks of life, men like these meet the soft
ly-nurtured darlings of prosperity as the
vessel of iron meets the vessel of porcelain.

The conquests of Commerce.

The London Dispotch, In an able editorial
discussing the India policy of that Govern
ment, and depreeating severely the .annexa-
ton policy pursued in India, speaks thus
elequently of the superiority of the peace
ful conquests of science and commerce:
'-Wbat is Hastings or. Give to a Barth
or q Livingston What are the conquests
of war, to the solid and virtuous victories Of
peace We are invading Africa, even now
with that glorious standard of the cross,
con earth peace and good will among men. -
The scientific and observing traveller it is
who is the true and lasting victor. He
marches on his way alone upon ignorance
and barbarism, with the message of civili-
zation, and as the ambassador of intelligent
humanity. He teaches the barbaric chief
how Improbable slaye-trading is, and how
valuable free subjects may become if put to
the precious uses of industry, and taught to
benefit themselves by the enrichment of 9TH
ers. He breaches the unaggressive but ex-
pansive uses of commerce, that blesseS him

He astounds US by his revelations at our

priceless advantages offered to our COM

of India, by fine lakes and rivers accessible

quest, by violence and cajolery, not cursed

rial expenses of government by dominant
race of strangers, but by the peaceful mis-
sionaries of science, and the unarmed am
bassadors of civilization, advancing alone as

harbingers of Western enterprise and trade,

Labor the Only Creator of Wealth.


1t would be well if our own capitalists
would take home the leson taught in the
paragraph below To the same causes that
the English journalists ascribe the down
fall of the French system, are to be attribu-
ted the present frightful monetary crisis
Our banking system is nothing less than a
vast Credit ALo5iiier, trading upon g Prom
ises to pay" and having no real basis for
its operations
:" The French Credit Mobilier is declin-
ing. We need not reargue' what we have
foretold. The stimulus of speculation by
raising banking capital on bonds, then in
vesting it in unconvertible shares of rail-
ways and the like, and, having lifted their
values to an unnatural height, of re-selling
them at forced profit, must come to an end.
The public cannot be SO juggled with for
ever, and then what remains on hand can
scarcely be disposable for its real value
So the bubble of prosperity bursts. Ali
endeavors to create capital merely out of pa
per are sheer dreams. Labor is the only
creator of wealth. What fairly passes as
currency represents nothing more than that
which is made and saved by toll, and when
such currency ceases to be payable and ac-
ceptable in the purchase of the saved capi
tai it is only waste paper. The Credit Mo-
bilier borrowed on bonds for the purpose of
speculation. What is this but overgrown

sauatters to be Expelled.

Application has been made to the Inte-
rior Department for the means of preserv-
ing the integrity of the Delaware Indian
reserve in kanZas, now threatened to be IL
legally overlun by the squatters. That ap-
plicatioR has already been responded to by
Secretary Thompson, in a letter showing
unrnistakably that that gentleman, the Pres
ident, and the Secretary of War fully COM
prehend the whole extent and obligation of
their duties in the case, and are prepared
TO execute them to the letter of the law, in
manner that resembles the policy of An
drew Jackson In such emergencies more
than aught else we have seen in the admin
istration of public affairs of late years.
The following is the letter in question:

''Sir: Your report Of the 10th inst, COW

and Agent Robinson, in relation to intru-
sions upon the Delaware reserve, in Kanzas
Territory, and suggesting the propriety of
obtaining the cooperation of the United
States troops, now in the territory, to effect
the removal of the intruders, has been re-
ceived and considered.
''There can be no doubt that the Govern
ment of the United States is bound, not only
by its relation to the Indians as their guar
dian, but by solemn treaty rights. The in
tegrity of their territory must, therefore, at
all hazards be preserved. You will, accord
ingly issue instructions to the Superinten-
dent at st. Louis, and to the Agents, to pro-
ceed forthwith to the removal of all intru-
ders upon Indian reserves in Kanzas, in the
mode prescribed in the circular letter of in

''The War Department has been request
