"a Ch1nese Proclamation.

A letter from an officer serving in the Chi
nese expedition, to n friend in Paris, gives the
following laughable order of the day, published
by one of the Chinese commanders, directing
his soldiers what they are to do in order to
overcome their enemies. It Is drawn up in the
form ofsa training bill of fare for thirteen
days: aThis is commanded BY me, the chief OF
the Braves. Letzalf tpembie and obey. On
the thirteenth day before the battle, they must
eat jelly made from tigers flesh, in order to
imbibe the rage and terocity of that animal;
the twelfth day before, the roasted liver of a
lion, in order to have the ~intrepidity OF that
noble beast; eleventh day, stewed serpents, to
acquire their cunning: tenth, extract OF cha
meleon, to deceive their enemies by changing
color; ninth, crocedile-broth, to make them
amphibious and be able to pursue and fight
their enemies both on land andEon water ;
eighth, jaguar's liver cooked in wine, in order
to have the rapidity and fury of that quadru-
ped; seventh, to hawks heads, in order &c have
the quick eye of that bird in Distinguishing
the enemy; sixth, zebra's intestines, to be
able to initiate the cry of that animal; fifth,
Hhippopotamus' brains, to make the body i'm
.penetrable to balls; fourth, stewed monkeys, to
acquire the activity of that race; third, scOr-
pions, in order that all the wounds inflicted by
them may be as vencmous as the sting of those
reptiles; ON the day before the battle, the half
raw breast of a panther, in order to Ee as pitt
less as that animal; and on the morning of the
battle they must drink a glass of leopard's
blood, in order that they may initiate that ami
NAL, which never turns round while devouring
its prey. HTremble and obey" The writer
adds that, on observing to a Chinese prisoner
that, notwithstanding the above preparations
for combat, the Braves had fed before their
enemies, the Chinaman explained that the
cheat of a cook had for his own profit, served.
the flesh of calves instead of that of pan
theirs and tigers, and that that Circumstance

VULGAR WoRDs.-There is as much con-
~nection between the thoughts, as there is be-
tween the thoughts and the words-the latter
are not only the expression of the former, but
they have power to react upon the soul and
leave the stain of corruption there. A young
man who allows himself to use profane or vul'
gar words, has not only shown that there is Z
foul spot on his mind, but by the utterance Of
that word he extends the spot and infames it
by indulgence it will soon pollute and ruin the
whole soul. Be careful of your words as vel
as your thoughts, IF you can control the
tongue 30 that no improper words be pronounc
ed by it, you will soon be able to control The
mind and save it from corruption.

"a secret worth knowing. This looking for

know of it, 1 would as soon chase butterflies

nights. The only true way to be happy is to
take the drops of happiness as God gives them
to us every day of our lives. The boy must
learn to be happy while he is plodding over
his lesson; the apprentice while he is learning

his fortune. If he fails to learn this art; he
will be sure to miss his enjoyment when he
gains what he signs for.

!, 10 FARMERS WHO THINK.

<The Farmers home is to a great extent a
community within itSelf, and its inmates must
seek for their information for themselves
hence, the Farmers family is bound to read, if

cause it has not the opportunity of the City,
where the Lecture room, the Court, the Walk
sing Takers, the numerous Churches, the rapid
:. mcvementseo of Trade, &C., supply to some ex-
tent; the place of reading.
The Farmer himself is bound to read because
- his Interests are involved with the interests of
-shiss State and County, and his State and Coun-
atty are constantly doing something which eff
szsfects him and his children, and it is the news

sxhIryif he will read, of the changes of the
LAWS of his State and County, as well as of
the times when the officers and the Courts act
.upon these laws. This is information which
she must have, his own welfare compels him to
ashavesit, and if he does not take the paper con-
filming this he must borrow the in
a formation from his neighbour, or else ride to
-zthea county seat and ask fsr the news, and then
*~pfobably forget the point of it before he gets
Sshome. Whereas, when he takes a paper, he

amount of information which he needs, and
.sthe same amount of amusement for his chill
dren for four cents per week, that he can get
