How THE THISTLE SAVED ScorLAsn-
line following is related as the origin Of
the use Of the thistle is the national en-
blem Of Scotland. When the Danes inyad-
ed Scotland, they availe,i themselves Of tho
pitch darkness Of night to attack the Scot
fish forces unawales, and marching bare
footed to prevent their tramp being heard.
one OF the Danes trod upon large prickly
thistle, and the sharp cry of pain which he
lnstinctively uttered, suddenly apprised the
Scots Of their danger, who Immediately ran
to their arms, and defeated the foe With
great slaughter. The thistle was thence
forth adopted as the national INSIGNIA Of
Scotland.

Parson Brownlow, of the West Tennessee
Wing, who is in the habit of speaking his
mind freely, is perhaps as free spoken as
ever he was in reference to the attitude OF
tie South Americans and Democrats In Con-
gfess. lie says;
1--WE of course viii not advise Southern Opposi-
lion members what to dc. believing them compe-
tent preserve their own self respect and to DIS
charge sworn duty to their country and their
constituents. But were member OF the South
ern Opposition in Congress, before we would oc-
cupy the paltry and contemplate attitude OF creep
ing after party that had spurned us by its de-
liberate acts, we would see the Capitol of the Ma
ton, and all the territory North and South of it,
sunk to eternal perdition. Nay, we would see all
the political organizations in America as far III
hell as pigeon could Az in thousand years, or
a forge hammer would fsp in twice that length OF
time! Sooner than thus degrade ourselves under
pretence Of battling for the homes and rights OF
our children, We would see them all Starve to
death, and then seat ourselves upon their collins

LETTER FROM A FRIEND TO YOUTH.
Iwish tn speak to you OF the man who has
formed cn,:soyy haJits--of all the different
characters who form the numerous popula-
ton of this vast globe, none is to be more
deplored than the curso'y gentleman OF the
nineteenth century. Go where we Will, pre-
cipitation seems to be branded on the fore
head of two-thirds Of the hannah race that
exist in the so-called. ''wisest ut wise genera
tions.s In the mere child we see portrayed
in vivid colors. the gem of the beautiful
plant. which in its eagerness To display to
yicinal admirers, the bright scintlllations OF
which it is capable, shoots forth with indls-
cretion, and consequently is suddenly blight
ed by the chilling night air; thus foretelling
the coming reyerses of the embryo man.
Admonitions from Indispensable monitors
follow admonitions; but are all disregarded
by the youthful protege. Manhood, with all
its cares and unforeseen trials. comes on the
wavward Observation-Disclosures as numer-
ous as the sands on the sea shore, present
themselves 10 battle with the mighty Perse-
verance. Alas, poor youth. little energy
does he possess-his indiscrlminate dash at
fortune and fame, is retarded by circumstan-
ces, too late perceptible by him. Parents
and tutors in a measure, are the cause OF
such reyerses--the discipline OF the present
day is entirely too lenient, and the sooner the
old Puritanic system becomes a universal
substitute. the better will it be for mankind.
The youth while emerging into the years OF
discretion, should constantly be reminded OF
what awaits him in the future. liza profession
is to be his lot-let him understand that sue
cess is only to be attained by perseyerlng IN
that calling, and to shift from one thing to
another, will end only in fatal results.
Observe that individual, who, from his
childhood up, has been eultiyating cursory
habits How deplorable his condition :
Even if he should succeed in some trivial
affair, the desnltory manner III which 1t is
done, is perceptible from the starting point
TO the termination.
Reflection should be courted by the young.
If such was the case, how many would he
saved from yagabond's death The wine
cup, and other fascinating but ruinous plea
snres, would not be resorted to on the slight
est proyocatiou, in order to drown the effects
of unsuecessfulness. Economical habits are
indispensable, if comfort in old age is de-
sired. Let him be taught the value OF the
old maxim-''A penny saved, is penny
made" Do not understand me to advocate
miserly and avaricious habits. Not ut all
But. avoid becoming spendthritt-n mo-
ney is to be laid out, let it be in useful
manner, not in trifles.
: All who peruse this feeble production, !
ask to look around and ascertain why some
men attain eminent positions, and others
never rise above mediocrity The lesson will
be profitable one.

A SAND GLASS USED IN A CHURCH.

A sand glass for marking the time having
been seen in the established Church Of q
parish, near Perth, gentleman residing
near Dundee, sent to the clergyman request
ing particulars about it, and received in re-
ply the following account of its purposes
and uses Our sand glass is a relic OF an
tiquity. There used to be one in every
church in the olden time. Their use was TO
regulate the length of the long winded ora
tions with which the ministers of those days
were wont to favor their hearers. Watches
were not so common then as now; and, as
the sermons were not written, the preachers,
when once set going. did not know when
to stop without some seasonable monition.-
With view to this, a sand glass was erected
on u stand in front of the precentor's desk,
so as to be seen both by minister and people.
When the sand ran out, theprecentor, whose
duty it was to attend to it, heldit up IN front
of the minister, to let him know how the
time was passing"
