TIE GREAT PRoCRuPrIoN BUeABoo.-
After all that has been said, and surmised,
and specialized, upon the great question Of
the colored people Of Tennessee being
thrown out Of employment in consequence
of voting TO perpetuate the slavery Of their
late masters. only two hundred and fifty eigt
names Of discharged persons have reached
the Freedmeris Bureau, and all the stories
Of proscriptica have come from negroes who
claim thai tley have been discharged for
political reasons. Taking their statements
Tor truth, the whole thing amounts to very
little more than nothing, and is in no index
whatever Of ihe popular feeling.

 Let the world understand that you can be spit upon, and you are a spitbox for life.
 It costs more now daze to feed and clothe Get cetera" than any other fel- low in the family.
 Conscienceis nothing butreason more or less educated; conscience is not so strong natural gift as is an ear for music.
 Ifyew are agoing to help man, be lively about it ; promised assistance af- ter while is considered debt.
 Don't never profess much, for if you git it right, nobody will remember it !; and if you get it wrongy nobody will disremember it.
 Some people arc very apt to think that their opinion, backed by pair of horses and eoachman is omnipotence, put Hcf, iluS lai, pu1 iloIc heie ol confidence in brains than hey by long odds in hoss feed.
 Don't forget that every maa is a beg gar in the opinion of God-"Give us this day our daily bread"

DUsT RETURNING TO DUsT.--It is as- certained by scientific writers, that the number of persons who have existed on our globe since the beginning of time, amounts to 36,627 ,S42, ,273,075, ,256.- These figures when divided by 3,095,Q00 --the number of square leagues on the globe-leave II, ,320, ,699,73 square miles of land, which, being divided as before, give 1,3l4022, ,076 persons'to each square mile. If we reduce these miles to square rods, the number will be l,S53,- 74,5OO,0OO, which, divided in like man. ner, will give 12S3 inhabitants to each square rod; and these being reduced to feet, will give about five persons to each square foot of terra firma.
 It will thus be perceived that our earth is vast cemetery. On each square rod of it l2S3 human beings lie buried, each rod being scarcely sufic- tent for ten graves, with each grave containing 12S persons. The whole surface of our globe, therefore, has been dug over 12S times to bury it's dead.- How literally true is the declaration of the poet:
 ssThere's not dust that floats on air
 But once was living man"
