THE PRESENT AGE.

We are living in AZ age Of improvement-an
are that surpasscs all former ages. Arts and
science arc carried to the highest state Of per-
fection. Great changes have been produced IN
the imnroyement of the human race that will
DO handed down to posterity to show that we
are living in very important period OF time
The Telegraph across the Atlantic is one OF the
most wonderful schemes ever entered upon IN
the course OF improvement on art or science
but we must not suppose that society has ar
rived to state of perfection. Fifty years hence.
the learned men will find methods to acqualnt
themselves with new discoveries in arts and
sciences which may seem incredible to the pre-
sent race, living in the most enlightened age
that the sun has ever shone upon. In reading
history we are astonished at the Incredible ad-
vances that have been made in arts and science.
The most learned mortals will never find oc-
casion to act over 4 gain what is tabled OF Alex
ander the Great, that when he had conquered
what was called the eastern world, be wept for
want of more worlds to conquer. Remember
that there is no perfection in learning-tor the
worlds of science are immense and endless.
Many of the science departments have difficult
ties belonging to them that have not been set
tied to an undoubted certainty as yet 1t is the
duty of every person living to improve his un-
dcrstanding, to inform his judgment, to treasure
up useful knowledge so as to live for the good
of society," Too many are living useless lives
often injurious to socicty-crucland rerengeul !;
bringing sin and misery upon all that come in
contact with them. Such may pass unpunished
uerc, but God will certainly make them accoun-
table in Judgment for abusing their time and
opportunities in this enlightened age of the world
In this age Of advancement, there are many
sad mistakes. Many persons are vainly persu-
ng the shadow, and neglecting the substance.
There are many persons living without any
mind or will of their own, carried away with
false airs and superficial arts; all they think or
care for is show. The mind should be the OBJ
icct of cultivation and care-yes, it mankind
would only apply themselves to it with half as
much zeal anu diligence as too many DO to the
lrines and amusemcnts Of this life, society would
be better in every respect.
Let the hope of new discoveries, as well as
the pleasure Of knowledge. animate us to daily
industry. May we so wisely improve tue pre-
sent, and remembering il. is all that we can call
nr.rs, that we shall not have to look mournfully
upon the past--tlat comes no more. Then we
may chcerfuly go forward to meet the shadowy
future without fear and with manly heart.

LITTLE FOOLS AND GREAT ONES.

Charles Mackay writes bits of most polishe
7isdom, now and then. The following (says til
lone JournaD should be put into school books:
When at the social board you sit,
And pass around the wine,
Remember, though abuse is vile,
That use may be divine;
That Heaven in kindness gave the grape
To cheer both great and small
That little fools will drink too much,
But great ones none at all.
And when in youths too heeting hours
You roam the earth alone,
And have not sought some loving heart,
That you may make your own,
Remember wonlan's priceless worth,
And think when pleasures pail
That little fools will love too much,
But great ones mono at all.
And if friend deceived you once,
Absolve poor human kind,
Nor rail against your fellow-man
With malice in your mind;
But in your daily intercourse,
Remember, lest you fall
That little fools confide too much,
But great ones not at all.
In work or pleasure, love or drink,
Your rule bc still the same
Your work not toll, your pleasure pure,
Your love a steady flame.
Your drink not nladdcning, but to cheer:
So shall your bliss not pail
For little fools enjoy too much,
But great ones not at all.

GOV. WALKER AND Tie DEMOCRACY OF KANSAS.

Among the arrivals in this city yesterday was
F. o. Perrin, ESQ, Of Kansas who LETT Lecomp-
ton on the 18th inst. Mr. P. was at the land
sales which have just closed at Osawkee, where
were congregated in large numbers people OF all
shades of political opinion and from every Sec
ton of the Territory. He states that there was
a large and enthusiastic Democratic meeting
held at Osawkee on the 18th. The meeting was
addressed at considerable length, and with great
power and effect, by General Whitfield and
other distinguished pro-Slarcry men Of the South.
Each speaker warmly and unqualitidedly en-
dorsed Gov. Walkers course, and the endorse
lnent met with the unanimous and enthusiastic
approval of the meeting.
Judge Emore, of Alabama, presided, and 1t
NAV not be out Of place here to state that the
Judge has in his service the largest number OF
slaves of any person in the Territory. A COM
mittee was appointed to prepare resolutions e1-
pressiye of the sense of the meeting, which was
COMPOSED principally of Southern men, and
among the number were two or three members
of the constitutional convention, whose views
ON the slavery question are not only Of deci-
ded, but are said to be of an ultra character.
The committee unanimously reported resolutions
strongly approving the policy and course OF Gov.
Walker in every particular; and the resolutions
were not only adopted by the meeting without
a dissenting voice, but with every outward man
iiestation Of hearty appreciation.
A full report Of the proceedings OF the meet
ing, with copy Of the resolutions, have been
prepared for the Union, and we are in daily e1-
pectation Of their receipt. We shall reserve
our comments until We lay the report before our
readers Washington Union.

The SLAVE TRADE IN CuBA--The slave trade
Hourishes amazingly. have heard of four or
five cargos of Bozal negros having been landed
since last wrote youi the last but one, beyond
Trinidad de Cuba, six hundred in number, has
been seized by Brigadier General Morales de
Rada, who happened to be in that vicinity, and
who also made prisoners of all the parties con.
cerned in the landing. They, with the Africans,
are now on their way to this city. This certain
ly has the appearance of am ettempt to put
stop to the African slave trade: The last cargo
of Bozals was landed on quay near Santa
Cruz. 1t had been found impossible to effect
their landing without detection on the main land!
of this island; so they were landed on the quay.
Three more American vessels have been sold to
the Spaniards, and will most probably be en-
ployed in the slave trade. Two have ALREADY

determining whether It Is best to have Bank Notes
at all or nor. To have them seems inevitable
and If not domestic, then foreign.
Accordingly, the question presented by the ac-
ton of the last Legislature, will not be whether
the Constitution ought TO contain prohibition
against all Banks--but whether II shall retain its
present provision, or shalt in lis place embody the
proposed amendment In other words, whether
the existing article in our Constitution, is such as
is best adapted to our present condition and most
likely to insure our future progress?
This provision in our Organic Law fixed limi-
tations on the number and capital Of Banks, which
when the State Government was formed, were
doubtless ample enough for the wants Of our State
white in her infancy. But now that she Is grow
ing up to the strength of maurer years, she needs
wider limits and freer scope for the development
OF her expanding faculties and energies.
Gentlemen OF the Senate and House Of Rep
resentatives, il will devove on you TO say,
whether the welfare of the State and YOU
duty 10 your constituents, require the adoption Of
the amendment proposed. Aud as fell well as.
surcd that in your deliberations and action OF
this most difficult and important subject, you will
be prompted by upright motives, so also trus
you will be guided by wise counse!s.
Fellow Citizens: II may often go wrong, ,
even while doing the best | can, "When right
shall often be thought wrong by those whose
positions will not command view of the whole
ground" Prone to error and exposed to miscon.
struction, feel myself impeled TO appeal fol
guidance and support 10 that Divine Wisdom anC
Power, whose interpostion and succor | know
shall constantly need.
