reatest Elm that ever was committed, was at
inst but thought. The foulcs. wickednes,

bad no greater beginning than this. f
or such quick growth and spreading

Of heaven which our Lord likened unto .

james represents II by o smile Of another
nature, comparing the origin and growth Of
1t to that Of tho mushroom, that springe,h

Force alone cannot Conquer withou,
Ideas.

The following extract is from the speech of
Hon. Charles Sumner. delivered in Faneuil
Hall the 9th inst. A noble and justly re.
vercd sentiment never found utterance in q
moro appropriate manner:
ut Is common to speak Of God as on the
side of the heavy battalions. Whatever may
be the truth Of this saying, II does not con-
tain the whole truth. Heavy battalons are
something bat they are not every thing
Even il they prevail on the battlefield, which
is not always the case, the victory which they
compel is not final. 1t is impotent to secure
that tranquility which Is essential to nation.

than force and II is vain to attempt to con.
quer merely by matter or by force. II this
can be done in small affairs, 1t cannot in
large affairs, for these will yield only to NOR.
al influences. Napoleon was the great mas.
ter Of war. and yet, from his utterances at
st. Helena, the legacy Of his transcendent
experience, comes this confession The moro
study the world, the more am convinced
of the inability Of brute force to create any
thing durable. And another Frenchman, OF
subtle Thought and perfect integrity, whose
name is linked forever with American ins,i.
tutons, Do Tocquevills, has paid similar
tribute to truth. Force says he, lis never
more than transient element OF success. A
government which should only be able to
crush its enemies on the field Of hattie would
very soon be destroyed Surely, In these
authoritative words Of the warrior and the
thinker. there Is warning to US not to put
trust in batteries or bayonets, while an un.
comparable instinct makes us all confess that
might does not constitute right.
Let the war end on the battlefield alone,
and 1t will be only in appearance that 1t will
end (; not IN reality. Time will be gained
for new efforts. and slavery will coil itself
to spring again. The rebellion may seem to
be vanquishcd, and yet it will triumph. The
Union may seem to conquer, and yet It will
succumb. The Republic may seem to be
saved, and yet il will be lost, handed over a
prey to that injustice which. so 10 long rs II

Curing Pork.

A French chemist has lately asserted that
.curvy will never arise from the use Of salt
provisions, unless saltpetro DO used in the
curing; that salt alone answers all the pur
poses, provided the animal heat be entirely
parted with before salting. He claims that
the insertion Of pork in pickle alone is not
sufficient, but that 1t should bc rubbed thor.
oughly with dry salt after 1t has entirely
parted with its animal heat, and that the
fluid running from the meat should be pour.
cd OF before packing the pork In the barrel.
This should be dono sufficiently closely to ad'
init no unnecessary quantity Of air. and some
dry salt should occupy the space between the
pieces, and then pickle. and not water should
be added. Great care must bo taken to BILL
the barrel entirely full. so that no portion OF
the meat can at any time project above the
surface Of the fluid; for, II this occur, q
change Of flavor ensues such as is known with
rusty pork.
The pickle, Of course, must be saturated
solution OF salt and water. that is. 90 strong
that it is incapable Of dssolving more salt.
II must be remembered that cold water Is ca
pable OF dissolvins more salt than hot water.

PovrRTr.-Bulwer says that poverty is
only an idea, in nine cases out Of ten. Some
men with ten thousand dollars year suffer
moro for want Of means than Others with
three hundred. The reason is the richer man
has artificial wants. His income is ten thous-
and, and by habit he spends twelve to fifteen
thousand. and he suffers enough from being
dunned for unpaid debts to kill sensitive
man. A man who earns dollar day and
does not run In debt, is the happiest OF tho
two. Very few men who have never been
rich will believe this, but it rs true. There
are people of course, who are wealthy, and
enjoy their wealth, but there are thousands
upon thousands, with princely incomes, who
never know moments peace, because they
