signed, not for to-day, exclusively. but
with view of meeting the wants of the
county in all time to come. The archi-
tect informs us that the design was not
made for any particular locality, but that
in its main features it is suited to the site
which the commissioners have selected.
1t is of course impossible to convey a
very clear idea of the design by written
description, and we therefore invite all
who feel an interest in it to call at the
architects office and examine it for them
selves.
We understand that new rt-house
is to be built at Salem, n. Y, and that the
commissioners appointed for that purpose
have sent for this design with view of
building after it.

Mental Improvement.

1.-The form alone let us prize,
The features of the fair!
Hook for spirit in her eyes,
And meaning in her air."
The human mind has been
handsomely compared to marble
in Che quarry, which shows none
of its inherent beauties, until the
skin of the artist smooths and
polishes the surface, and dis
covers every ornamental spot,
cloud, and vein. The mind I'M
educated has inherent qualities
and powers, which often would
pass unknown, were it not for the
developing influence of education.
The mental powers are not only
brought'to light by education, but
they are improved and strength
ened, just as any of the locomo.
tive organs are by exercise. And
as mental strength and energy
are preferable to corporal, so will
be, the inducements to cultivate
and practice those means calcu-
lated to produce that effect.
Science, as well as a knowledge
of men and the world, contributes
to divest us Of many unreasonable
prejudices; it liberates us from
errors which, through ignorance,
blind the intellectual eyes Of many,
and enable us to view things and
principles in their proper light
Nothing can be more unfavorable
othe character of a female, than
those little prejudices which re.
suit from ignorance, and which
represent objects to the mind with
erroneous impressions, and pois-
on it with extravagant supersti.
tiOns. ~.
The knowledge derived from a
good education, affords a constant
fund for conversation, without de-
scending to those trivial discourses
TO which the uniformed necessari
~ are obliged to resort. Not only
does it thereby elevate it's posses
scr above the ignorant; but it
gives animation to the counte.
nance and air, without which none
can be really beautiful; for what
signifies elegance of form, and
softneSs of expression, without
the sacred inspiration, which the
mind alone can givef
"A damask cheek and ivory arm.
Shall meier my wishes win;
Give me 81 animated form.
That speaks mind within"
Dear females, let not the season

Cling to Those Who Cling
k.. :. to You.

F9stE t&8 Z
There are many friends of summer
Who are kind while flowers bloom,
But when winter chills the blossoms
They depart with the perfumes H.
On the broad highway of action
Friends Of worth are far and few,
So when one has proved his friendship,
Cling to him who clings to you.
Do not harshly judge your neighbor,
Do not deem his life untrue,
? Ifhe makes no great pretentions,
Deeds are great though words are few
Those who stand amid the tempest
Firm as when the skies are blue,
win be friends while life endureth-
Cling to those who cling to you.
When you see worthy brother .-.
Buffeting the stormy main,
Lend . helping hand fraternal,
Tillhe reach the shore again; b
Don't desert the old and tried friend
When misfortune comes in view,
For he then needs friendship comfort
Cling to those who cling to you.

Man and his Savior.

And old German author writes
thus of his need of Christ: "MyI
soul is like a hungry and thirs
ty child, and / need his love and
consolation for refreshment; / am
a wandering and lost sheep, and
| need him as a good and faithful
Shepherd; my soul is like a fright
.ened dove, pursued by a hawk,
and | need his wounds for a ref
uge; I am q feeble vine, and l
need his cross to lay hold of and
wind myself about it; | am a sin
ner, and [ need his righteousness;
[ am naked and bare, and | need
his holiness and innocence for a
covering; | am in trouble and
alarm, and | need his solace; / am
ignorant, and need his teaching;
simple and foolish, and / need the
guidance of his Holy Spirit. In
no situation, and at no time, can
| do without him. Do l pray? He
must prompt and intercede for me.
Am / arraigned by Satan at the
Divine tribunal! He must be INV
Advocate. Am / in affection!
He must be my helper. Am /
prosecuted by the world! He
must defend me. When [ am for
saken, he must be my support;
when dying, my life; when mould
ering in the grave, my resurrec-
ton. Well, then, / will rather
part with all the world, and all
that it contains, than with thee,
my Savior, and, God be thanked,
[ know that thou too art not will
ing TODD withoutme. Thou art rich
J and | am poor; thou hast righte-
BUSINESS, and / sin; thou hast oil
and wine, and l wounds; thou
hast cordial and refreshments.
and I hunger and thirst. Use me,
then, my Savior, for whatever
purpose and in whatever way
thou mayest require. Here is my
poor heart an empty vessel; fill it
with thy grace. Here is my sin
full and troubled soul; quicken
and refresh it with love. Take
my heart for thine abode; my
mouth to spread the glory of thy
name; my love, and all my powers,
for the advancement of thy hon.
or, and the service of thy believ-
ing people. And never suffer the
steadfastness and confidence of
my faith to abate, that so at all
times [ may be enabled from the
heart to say, Jesus needs me,
and | him, and so we suit each
other.'"
