MENTAL REsT.-On this point it is we'll
to remember that change of occupation of.
ten has the same benticial result as absolute
cessation from active thought. Variety of
study is, therefore advisable. It is also a
maxim Of rational wisdom, as we'll as divine
prscept, to observe the seventh as day Of
rest. Cessation from ordinary bodily labor
is thus enjoyed, and though cessation from
mental labor is not expected, there is the
advantage, on the principle just stated, of
a change Of thought, and that to subjects Of
the highest importance to our weifara1%3

bertorce, and many other distinguished men,
of great power of mind, and variety of pus-
suit. have borne testimony to the advantages
of Sabbath observance; while striking ex.
amples might be given of the fatal results
to health from neglectfng the beni6cent
andiwhoiesorne arrangement of the seventh
day of rest. This periodical time ofrest
from.toil and change of thought is benefi.
cial to all classes Of mankind, but more es-
peciaIly to those who are actively engaged
during the week either in bodily or mental
Mbor.

A SPLENDID WEApoS.-Several months
ago, as our readers will recollect, we noticed
an application made by Mr.. A. LIE Mat, Of
this city, for patent for an improved re-
volver of his invention. He has secured his
patent, and yesterday showed us one ofthem.
1t is beyond all comparison the finest weap-
on we ever saw. 1t is revolver Of the nine
chambers, charged with conical expanding
balls, which are fred in the same manner
as the balls of the Colts Army Revolver.
But in addition to these there is large
center barrel the charge Of which consists of
fifteen or twenty buckshot. This barrel is
independent Of all the others, and is dis
charged by means Of sliding hammer at
tached to the regular Colts hammer. The
adjustment for the discharge of the central
or grape shot barrel can be affected by a
single motion, in two seconds. In weight
this weapon is about equal to the regular
Army revolver, but in efficiency it far sur
passes it.-N. O. Crescent.

The Rising Moon.
BY W. B. o. PEABODY.

The moon Is up! how calm and slow
She wheels above the hill
The weary winds forget to blow,
And all the world lies still.
The way-worn travellers with delight,
Her rising brightness see,
Revealing all the paths aud plains,
And gliding every tree.
1t glistens where the hurrying stream
Its little ripping hcaves;
1t falls upon the forest.shadc,
And sparklcs on the leaves.
So once in Judah's evening hills
The heavenly lustre spread;
The Gospel sounded from the blaze,
And shepherds gazed with dread.
And still that light upon the world
Its guiding splcndor throws,
Bright in the opening hours Of life,
And brighter at its close.
The waning moon in time shall fail
To walk the midnight SIX les;
But God hath kindlcd this bright light
With fire that never dies.

BLACKBERRY BRANpY-The most singr-
lar substance submitted to our editorial in
srection lately, is bottle of brandy, made
by DIR. league, Of this village, Of backber
ries. 1t is n limpid, color!ess liquid, of most
agreeable odor and highly puugcnt taste.
1t seems to boa decidedly better brandy
than that made Of the peach, and there is
no more difficulty in its manufacture. 1t
may be that the blackberry will yet become
one Of our most valuable natural produc-
tions. In itself, it is q hcathful, almost a
medical berry. The cordial and jams made
of it are thought worthy Of a place among
the various preparations of tho medical dis
pensary aud We do not see why blackber-
ry brandy should not also become n most
useful as well as very genial drink. We
trust Our enterprising friend will push the
matter on to success. lie might thus per-
haps mark an era in the history of stimula-
ting beverages. AS n, present tested, Il

cign aid of strychninc or any other poison
