Are You tlonriShinc business man? pad
die your own canon. Don't give up the oars
to any one less interested than Yourself if
you are rowing in the broad. smooth river of
prosperity. Are You the wife of said pro
sperous business man? paddle your canoe
and don't give up the paddle to Mrs. Grun-
dy, she will paddle you right in among the
islands of extravaganza and luxurious case.
Indeed, can't tell you all the dangerous
places she will take you, and at last when
your bark is swallowed up in the quick
sands Of useless expenditure, she will poin
the finger discern at you and say, poor
thing, she is so weak she cannot paddle her
own canoe Are you a hard working me-
chanic or farmer ? paddle your own canoe.
Pay no attention to visionary channels you
may hear Of that will lead you to a
visionary country, where roast pigs run
round with carviug-knite-sticking in their
sides, begging people to eat them Don't
believe it. There is not word of truth in
it. And you, the wife of said mechanic or
farmer, oh, my friend, much depends on
padding your own canoe. Row very sted-
lily through the straits of economy, and at
length you will double the cape poverty and
pass out into the broad sea of plenty. And
you, young ladies and gentlemen, paddle
your own canoe. Choose your own consort,
but be sure you choose a safe one. Ships
have their consorts, why can't canoes?-
Little boys and girls can paddle Their own
canoes, too. And at last. when We paddle
out Of times rullin: river into the broad
ocean Of eternity that we may all be enabled
to reach that port where sorrow and signing
is no more, is the sincere wish OF your fel.

unrivalled splendor which adorned his efforts
in the glory Of his brilliant prime, at the
period previously mentioned. Hisdecadence
commenced with his ministry at the city of
Washington, as chaplain to Congress. Even
there, he disappointed the universal expccta-
ton, and with difficulty escaped the disgrace
Of a complete failure. The cause may be
easily assigned. In his boundless anxiety
for success, he adopted the plan Of preparing
his orations and committing them to men,
ory for each separate occasion. From that
instant, the insulted angel of spontaneous
eloquence deserted him. carried away the
light of burning inspiration, and left him
alone with the shadows of the midnight lamp.
He became windy, talking, automaton, a
reader of dull notes inscribed on the tablets
Of painful recollections; cut off foreve. from
all those unpremeditated bursts and flashes
of ignited thought, which had constituted
the charm Of his early lectures. The wing
of the golden eagle was broken, and he new
er more could bear the burden of Olympian
thunder-bolts, or watt from the sky any mes
sage from the gods
1t is tr,le, that he afterwards, was chosen
professor in some institution called college.
and, finally, ascended to the first office in the
church. But ever as he arose up the steep
activity Of ecclesiastic honor, his genius
seemed to decline pari passu, until men
ceased to speak of Henry B. Bascom as the
"Demosthenes Of the Western Pulpit" and
prattled, instead, of his learning as an acad-
emician, and his orthodoxy as bishop. I
will only add, that he was self-educated. and
had mastered many languages, and the most
varied literature of all ages. 80 'aH-.

The South has lost citizen, and Ireland
doubtless, is about to recover rebel. Mr..
John Mitchell has hurled away his fruitless
pen in scorn, and sets sail once more for Eu-
rope not of course, as we presume, for the
dominions of her Britanic Majesty, in which
the Guelph and the gaoal still deform the ac-
cursed soil, but probably for the revolution
ary Romagna, or for the Convention at Ia
rich. Slavery has refused to kindle at his
voice into glory; Shareholders have declined
to subscribe to his Journal; aud the Union
has not so much as quakci at the thunder
Of his nostrils. The apostle must therefore
condescend once more to trihe with the vu-
gar emotions Of liberty, The dull love of
gold has failed to fame at his ;ouch; he will
wave his hand now over the hearts and the
hopes Of men, to whom his language may,
perhaps, be a little obscure, but who must
surely catch the magnetic passion of his
traired and infsllihlc tones. To subside
from the glory of defending the slave trade.
TO the work of rousing the natouali.ics, Mr.
Mitchell, who is as classical We believe, in
tastes, as he Is considerate in his politics,
must feel to be derogation at least, if not
a positive degradation. Nothing, we imag-

1--WE have the most cheering intelligence
from our political friends in Iowa. The
campaign has opened under the most favor.
able auspices, and there is every reason {,
believe that the Republican ticket will be
elected by larger majority than has ever
before been given in that State Not oniy
are OIL Republicans coming up to the work
with their wonted zeal and determination,
but we hear of i'm oortaat accessions to the
Republican ranks in every county from
which we have advices. Among the most
important of these are Col. Scholte and Mai
E.W. Eastman. Both these gentlemen have
long been recognized as among the abicst and
most influential leaders of the Democracy in
that State. They have been driven from
the party by its intensely Pro-Slavery char
acter, and are now doing god service for
the Republicans. Colonel SchoIte is at
the head of campaign paper, and Maj.
Eastman has taken the stump Many of the
old political associates of these gentlemen
have resolved to take sides With them in
their stand for Rspublicanism.
= The Democracy Of Iowa are dis
heartened aud demoralized. The honest
portion of them are deserting the rotten or
ganization by platoons: the remainder ad
NIT that their defeat is inevitable, aud moth

from abandoning the contest" t.r....-
