Social Life not the end of Man.

A popular lecturer at Chicago lately advo-
Gated with some plusibility, the drinking and
dancing customs of other countries as means
of promoting social intercourse, and adding to
the animation and grace Of general society,"
To this the Congregational Herald remarks:
"The value of social life has been unduly
magnifed- 1t is of far less moment than do
mestic life. That man should please and
entertain his neighbors or acquantances for
few moments or hours, it may be while he is
with them, dwindles into insignifcance by the
side of the question, whether he makes happy
the companion of his life and the children
whose veal or woe for time and eternity de-
ponds much on fathers influence. That a
woman should be fascinating at social party,
what is it compared with shedding the ra-
dance of love and kindness on husband and
children in her family ? Any social life that
would interfere with these most sacred home
duties, will prove curse, not only to the ami-
ly Immediately affected but to society at large.
We shall owe no gratitude to him who shall
SO solve the social problem as to disturb the
happiness of the fireside.

The humble Christian from the world recsdes,
And proves his piety BY silent deeds;
he values not the need Of noisy fame,
And little cares If fools applaud or blame;
Rebuking vice the sinner wounds him sore,
And hypocrites when censured wound him more
With modest light he shoots his beams sfar,
Yet shines, scarce noticed, ike . midnight star;
he gives bis substance to the poor, and sheds
The deEs Of mercy over dying beds;
And dies himself, in Faiths calm warfare brave,
With scarce tear 70 wet his unknown grave.

OF A girl out West having protested re.
ligion was so extremely happy that she was
ever afterwards singing at the top of her voice
that old hymn, The love of God is coming
down. &c Nothing stops her from singing
this song. One day old FOWLER, the house-doe
came in while she was singing and helped
himself to piece of meat that was on the
table. Polly, observing the movement Of
Jowler, continuing her fayorite song, said:
If you don't go ont I'll knock you down.
Halle Halleluiah,
You nasty sinking lopeared hound.
O, glory HaIlelujah.

TO CLEAR Room OF MosoUIroEs.-A wri-
ter in a South Carolina paper says 81 have
tried the following, and find that it works
like charm Take of gum champion piece
about one-third the size of an egg, eyaporate
by placing it in tin vessel, and hold it over a
lamp or candle, taking care that it does not
ignite. The smoke viii soon fill the room and
expel the mosquitoes. One night, not long
since, was terribly annoyed by them, when
| thought of and tried the above, after which
| neither saw nor heard them that night, and
next morning there was not one to be found
in the room, though the windows has been
left open all night

DIRBLERIE OF AN ARAB MAGIcIAN.-Caleb
Lyon, of Lyonsdale, in his lecture on Egypt,
relates some remarkable tricks that were per-
formed by an Arab magician
A cane was handed to party for inspection
and proved to be plain stick, on which the
knots of limbs were visible !; on returning it
to the conjurer however, it became serpent
which wnggled about for few moments and
then suddenly became stick again. This
trick, which is said to be common one
among the Arabs, was repeated several times.
The next trick was more startling A black
liquor was poured into boys hand, and in it
as mirror, one of Mr. Lyons companions, a
native of South Carolina, beheld rice planta-
of his own State, and his father, who has been
dead many years, riding through the field on
horseback

hR. s. GILBERT, after many years expert

womb that he cannot cure, if he has fair trial.
No man in the nation has had more experience for
the last 20 years than he has, and perhaps no man
has had more success. There is not n State in
the Union that he cannot show living witnesses of
his skill. He has partner in London, an eminent
regular Physician, with whom be is in constant
communication, and all the new remedies discov-
cred, he receives.
Hundreds of females, who are altogether durable
if taken in time, suffer the disease to go on until it
becomes cancerous, after which, in most cases. life
is burden, and death is the only relief. His In
Urinary is new and wel-furn ished his table is as

Our Creed.

We believe in small farms and thorough
cultivation.
We believe that soil loves to eat as well as
its owner, and ought to be manured.
We believe in large crops, which leave the
land better than they found it-making both
the farmer and farm rich at once
We believe in going to the bottom of things
and therefore in deep blowing and enough Of
it. All the better with sub-soil plow.
We believe that every farm should own a
good farmer.
We believe that best fertilizer of any soil
is spirit of industry, enterprise and intelli-
gence-without this, lime and gypsum, bones
and green manure, mari and guano, will be Of
little use.
We believe in good fences, good barns, good
farm houses, good stock, good orchards, and
children enough to gather the fruit.
We believe ina clean kitchen, neat wife in
II, spinning piano, clean cupboard, a clean
dairy, and clean conscience.
WE firmly disbelieve in farmers that will
not improve; in farms that grow poorer every
year in staryeling cattle +: in farmers boys
turning into clerks and merchants in far
mers' daughters unwilling to work, and in all
farmers ashamed of their vocation, or who
drink whiskey until honest men are ashamed
of them BeecAG- on FARMING.
