home, good people! Don't shut up your houses
lest the should fade your carpets, and your
hearts, lest hearty laugh should shake down some
of the musty cobwebs therel If you want to ruin
your sons, let them think that all mirth and social
enjoyment must be left on the threshold without,
when they come home at night. When once home
is regarded only as place to eat drink, and sleep
in the work IS begun that ends in gambling houses
and reckless degradation.
Young people must have fun and relaxation some
where; if they do not find it at their hearthstone,
it will be sought in other and perhaps less profit
able places. Therefore, let the fire burn brightly
atnight and make the homenest delightful with all
those little arts that parents perfectly understand
Don't repress the buoyant spirits of your children;
half an hour of merrment round the lamp and fire.

Common teaches that the of Ague and Fever
consists IN shortening The duration OF the parOxysm and
preventing its return. The first be accomplished by
depicting the bowels relaxing the skin, &c the second
by the prompt application of such medicines cacu-
lated to restore the deranged functions and give healthy
tone to the nervous system.
The Tonic HTture offered possesses all the qualities
requisite to effect the second indication. The first dose
generally checks the disease and bottle fails to
effect cure; healthy reaction takes place. the appetite

THE TOBACCO TRADE OF VIRGINIA.

An annua, expose of the commercial affairs OF
commonwealth is in our opinion OF much more IN
terest and value than yearly executive recital OF
the political condition of things. From the one we
learn what has been the true progress state IN the
direction of prosperity opulence and enlightenment
From the other we too often learn how badly and
sadly her concerns have been mismanaged or neg
lected. Commerce is the grand instrument OF ma
tional ACKNOWLEDGEMENT and in proportion 10 lts en-
enlargement and advancement IN community Is
the prosperity and happiness OF that community.
From the earliest ages OF the world has TINS oeen the
case, and all history certhes to 1t.
The great staples of agriculture are the founda-
items of trade and consequently these productions
are collectively and severaly proper subjects to De
presented to public consideration in the form best
calculated to convey truthful information relative to
the nature extent and influence of their respective
operations in the general business OF the country.
1t is much more important for the people OF the
State to know the end of every year how much
wheat corn or tobacco has been raised, and how II
has been disposed Of than to know how much pollt
ca excitement has been engendered by sectional Is
Sues or how much complicated by party strife have
been the true and solid interests of the common
wealth.
Somehow or other these general thoughts have
occurred to us from reading in the Richmond Wing
of Thursday an elaborate and comprehensive state
ment of the tobacco trade of Virginia, which, al
though only one of the of our prosperity Is,
nevertheless a most valuable one The statistics
of the Wigs tables worthy to be carefully noted
and studied, for they afford in moderate compass,
materials for forming correct idea OF the manner
and degree in which this celebrated staple contrib
utes to our commercial prowess.
We propose making few extracts from this Re
view regrettng that have not room for its entire

Observation-Disclosures are some things that preach
besides men. Sometimes it is hook, sometimes
child sometimes an unwrten life, and sometimes
there is sermon in stone There is no lack of
preachers. If there is dearth in anything it is
practice; if there Is any famine in the land 1t is
moral one.
Lives preach When a minister's son pitches
quots on the Sabbath, he breaches louder and more
eloquently than his father in the pulpit When a
wine-dealers boys grow up spendthrftS ard go reel
ing through the streets it is exposition of the
text with which he started: Am | my brothers
keeperY more forcIbe than any divine could give
by score of arguments. When n fashionable
mother teaches her daughters to despise labor, and
ignore mental attanments, and lives to them ia
king in washing and sewing there is an inference to
be drawn from such education more potent than any
pulpit could portray. When young man makes
beautiful prayers in the social meeting and refuses
to comfort the widow and the fatherleSS, and locks
his closet door, except the first day of the week,
his six days preaching not only ecpses the seventh,
but gives rise to the question whether Pharisees
obsolete. When government officer betrays his
trust and absconds with hundred thousand Gol
lars wanting on the records, with which he gave
stead of State prison, false, sckly sympathy
among brother politicians, there is comment upon
fast living and false morality more powerful than
any exposition upon the life of Dives, from a theolo-
gian's pew.
OF many it would be wisdom to say the lady
did, when asked of student whose life bur-
lesque upon his preaching, whether he was preach
ing; no, he is practicing. Olire Branch.
