The Slaves Of society.

Beware of cozy-headed people, between n
whose ears snd mouth there is no partition
Before you make bosom friend Of any
man, be sure that he is secret tight. The
IN ischief that the non resentive do is inf
mite. In social life they often set whole
communities by the ears, frequently break
up families, and are the cause of numerous
misfortunes, miseries. and crimes In
business they spoil many promising
speculation, and involve hundreds in bank
ruptcy and ruin. Therefore, be very care
fIl to whom you intrust information of vital
Importance to your own happiness, to the
interests Of those you hold dear. Every
man has natural inclination to communi-
cate what he knows; and if he does not do
so, it is because his reason and judgement
are strong enough to correct his inherent
propensity. When you find friend who
can exercise absolute power over the com
muDicative instinct--if we may so term it
wear him in your heart. Ii you have no
friend, keep your own counsel.

The HAaxER MIGHrrER THAN THE PEN.

He HAMMER MIGHrTKR THAN THE FEN.
We read that the pen is mightier than
the sword: reasoning metsphoricaliy the
statement is true But the hammer is
more powerful than either. by the argument
that deeds are more cogent than words
The pen inspires mankind to great efforts
by the glowing words preceding from it.
The sword hacks and carves a brilliant
fame for him who welds it; but before its
advance the nations Of the world shrinks
back in dread, aud woman and children

shell. or the glare of dwellings in flames. it
stands out aud CLEANS bsletully against the
sky, and only over human anguish and ag-
ony does it stride TO triumph and renown.
! Who ever feared the hammer, or It's
deeds? Those that rush across the plains
of the West, or the hills of the East; they
who plov the waters of the rivers or the
ocean; these experience the triumphs of the
hammer. know well its power. aud how in
dispensible it is Tue pen may stimulate

hammer aud does il homage. A man msy

the house, but he can not exist without be-
ing indebted to the hammer or its eIuiva-
lent. The pen sings the praises of the
hammer, and incites eulogiums upon lis
numerous achievements; few are the monu-
ments the hammer designs 10 raise in honor
of literature. The pen is mightier than
the sword, because it achieves its object
through reason and not force, and also in
that 1t is intinitively more civilized and hu-
name in its effect upon the world; but the
hammer conquers even more territory than
the pen. and is, in its way, invincible. No
country s.too remote. or any wild too savage

Without the hammer-a symbol of toll. as
the pen is of violence-the world could not

the elective franchise, and elect one of their
own kind to the Presidential chair.
II is not strange thsi the free men of the
North or South, with their hearts burning
with the spirit of freedom, have walked up,
from their long slumber. buckled on their
armor, and gone to the tented field of war.
to protect themselves and their households
from the grasp Of despotism. The sword is
unshesthei, and the last appeal Of nations
is being brought and tried before the Court
Of Heaven, to determine whether freedom
can live on the earth, and maintain her
CLAIM to Divine origin. The magnitude of
the struggle, none but the Infinite Mind
can grasp. Freedom or despotism, in this
land must now die if freedom dies in this
contest, it will be its death-knell in every
nation. Bat if frt edom triumphs here, it
will be its triumph through sill Of earth. =
The crisis of the world has come, and the
convallescence of freedom, on the one side,
or the death struggle of the other is just at
hand.
Itis. however, this day. matter of most
devous thanksgiving to Almighty God. that
thus far, in our struggle. He has so sigually
favored freedoms cause, and this morning
the heart rejoicing Intelligence comes to US,
that the noblest achievement in behalf of
freedom has jus. been obtained in front of
Chattanooga. This, with other triumphs
has opened the way to unfurl the Flag of
Liberty, that it may float over three-fourths
of the territory at first claimed by this re-
belllon. And it is also cause of hearty
thanksgiving, that God has so manifestly
wrought for US, by preventing every other
nation from interfering 10 behalf of the en-.
emies Of freedom. He is saying to all ma
tions Hands off +"
And. finally, as far as human foresight
can penetrate, the joyous prospect is, that
the conflict will soon bs ended, and uuspes.
kably more will be achieved than WAS at the
first intended by US. 1t was no design of
our Government 10 liberate the slave. But
GoD designed it. and il. is being done, in de.
spite OF every adverse power. Well nigh
one million already have been delivered
from the yoke of dsspotism, and they are
but the first fruits presented to the Lord as
the earnest of the triumph of the removing
three millions from under the CALLING yoke of
slavery, aud then all these will be but the
first fruits of earth's millions, ground down
by the iron heel of oppression. God grant
that the day may speedily come, when the
Heavens and the earth shall rejoice togeth
er in alIeluias, because the Lord God has
taken to Himself His mighty power and
reigned, and caused freedom to triumph in
mans behalf"
