ABOUT GIRLs.-The best thing about girl
is cheerlulness. We don't care how ruddy her
checks may be, or how velvety her lips, if she
wears q scowl, even her friends will consider her
ill-looking while the young lady who illumin-
ates her countenance with smiles, will be re-
garded as handsome, though her complexion is
coarse enough to CRATE nutmegs ON. AS per-
fume is to the so is good nature to the love
". Girls think of this.

JAPAN.-The English papers TEEN with arti-
Giles and correspondence relative to the expedi-
ton of Lord Elgin up the Bay of Yeddo, his
anchorage before the famous capitol, which is
said to excel the city of London in its extent
and number Of inhabitants, on his success in
making a new treaty With the Emperor of Jap
an. In the last of these matters however, he
was anticipated by MrHarris, the United States
Consul General, who, before Lord Elgins ar
rival had already concluded treaty with the
japanese Government The following embraces
the particulars of the American treaty:
Firstly. That the tax of six per cent for coin
ing our money into theirs, now paid by the
American purchaser o. japanese exports, shall
be dispensed with.
Secondly. The annual practice of "trampling
upon the cross which has existed, at NagaSdki
ohdy, since about the year 1920, is to be con-
tinued no more after the fourth of July next
and our Ministers ard families to reside at Jed
do.
Thirdly. The provisions of the treaty to take
effect from and after July 4th, 1859. The open
ing of some new port, forms an exception to this
article.
Fourthly. Americans may build churches
and worship their God and religious freedom
is also granted to all japanese.
Filthy. The port of Simoda is to he closed
and that of Kanagawi opened in its place. He
60 and the great cityof Osaca, of which it is the
seaport, are also to be opened. At Hego the
water is so bold that vessels may moor close
alongside the beach, and the back country is tht
most productive and thickly populated of Japan
Sixthly. a stipulation is made in the article
that opens Kanagawa which is only seventeen
miles from Jeddo, which protects the latter from
the visits of foreigners. Mr.. Harris says, how
ever, tina, this will no. last long. Such slip
ulation was necessary, for, by Commodore Per
rvs treaty, We should have been allowed to ram
Bile around Kanagawa to such distance tina
the sight of Jcddo wonld have been included.
Seventhly. Japanese coin may be exported
but in the purchase of il American gold mus
be weighed against Japaneses gold, and silve
against silver. The copper (''t'seny'') shall b.
excepted by this article unless it also be weigh
ed against copper coin.

This is a little book which will live. No one can
fail to find profit well pleasure in its perusal 1t
is replee with the true spirit Of poetry; but beyond
this aims TO illustrate the value to character Of trials
DR.. Holland Is charged in some quarters with aim
ing to prove evil good We do not understand this to
be his obJect but rather to show how evil is overued
by Divine Providence aud made to subserve the lofty
purpose Of developing strength of character to resist
evil. Evil is present with us, God has not prevented
it. The question is thus stated:
ask what He would have this evil do for me?
What is its mission2 What its ministry?
What golden fruit lies hidden in its husk?
How shall 1t nurse my virtue, my will,
Chasen my passions, purify my love,
And make me in some goodly sense like Him,
| Who bore the cross OF evil while He livedI
To answer this question is the object. of the Poem.
There are old New England thanks giving scenes with
fun and froic, apples and cider, interpreted with
gems Of poetry, but gradually rising as the story pro
coeds in descriptive full Of thrilling power as
we have met with for many Il day. For sale at Eel

The Second of september.

The election for Judge of the Supreme Court, to
fill the vacancy occasiOned by the death of Judge
HARRIS will be held throughout the State on Thurs
day, the ID day Of September. We believe there is
but one candidate for this office before the people
the Hon. ARCHIBALD WRIGHT, of Memphis The
eminent qualifications of this gentleman, and the
esteem and admiration in which he is held by the
people and the bar rendered his election certainty
as soon as his name was announced. as candidate;
and there has therefore been none of that excite
meut which is necessary in Tennessee to bring out
large vote The probability therefore is, that the
vote will be light.
On the same day that the election for Judge is
held, the people will also have an opportunity to
vote on the question Of calling a convention to re-
wise our State Constitution To carry this question,
an affirmative vote equal 10 the majority of all the
