Friday morning. the 18th inst, was as bright and
beautiful as we would have had it, even had we been
temporarily possessed Of the controlling powers
above us. The sky curtained with hight clouds,
which tempered the rays of the sun, and gentle
breeze made the atmosphere delightfully."- pleasant
We were informed, that our presence would be toll
Grated by party of ladies and gentlemen who were
destined on that day, for a sylvan ramble and war

numbered about thrty-two, fifteen of whom We're

About o'clock the party lad assembled ready 10

enjoy good rides on 'lowny beds" Of straw, and the
usual fun attendant upon such trips, they missed one
of the best opportunities for enjoyment they ever
had. Five vehicles We're requisite to carry the num-
Der in attendance. The ladies were helped in, the
gentlemen jumped in, and after all had got IN,
off moved the wagons freghted with their precious
cargo Of the BEAUTY and chvalry Of Marietta. We
arrived at our destination about ten o'clock. After
a visit to the Paper Mill, which was far below our

After music we expected that there would be some
"speeches" on the science of fishing, that our day
angling might be attended with success, by some OF
the Young gentlemen, but salutations OF that kind
erected the organ of our hearing. SO in meda-
tive silence we viewed the happy crowd, having
heard that "thc proper study of mankind IS man.
However, this being good opportunity, we tried to
learn a lesson, in studying man, but we didn't
succeed worth a cent, for soon found that his

All cooking utensils of brase

Knives and forks of steel should
be wrapped in strong brown paper,
as cloths injure them when they lie
in them a long time.
A careful saving of all bits Of

Ihe divine rlgit OF kings, Onc
never questione |, is now constant
" assalled. "GJatia Del" ma
be stamped on the coin, but in tn
heart dwc,ls the gle ruth tho
the ruler derives all his power
from the governed. But to hav
these principles embodied in al
outv ard t;ngible form IN Ccntra
Europe would accelerate the move
ment that is agitating the masses
Their FIRE, the great problem is
how to secnre a peace that shall pu
this dangerous eHcnt back in IL
old place-to its old sleep. Peopl,
in this country are deceived respec
ing the power this doctrine Of ht
man rights exerts in European POI
cv, because it takes no outwarC
from except when it Is asselteC
with arms or defended by force.
But what power it does have, anC
what cOmmotion it can create
may be seen by recalling the Frencl
Republic of 1872 See every crown
ed head summoning his troops
to battle, till nearly million o.
men moved down on the infant Re
public, When the surging, excl.
ted population denied the divine
right Of kings, and threw down the
head Of a king as the guage Of bat
tie, the feudal governments Of Eu-
rope had but one policy, one com
mon interest to assert and main
tain. The first crusade, to snatch
the holy sepulchre flom the lands
of intidels, did not harmonic more
speedily and completely hitherto
antagonistic powers and hostile
prince th"n did this crusade against
liberty. He who supposes that
this feeling has undergone any
change, has watched the course
and progress Of events to little pur,
pose. 1acticS-mode of operation
are changed, but not the principle
or the purpose.
Bat there is one thing in the
present aspect Of affairs for which
it is hard to account the stub
bornness of the Provisional Gov.
ernert of France in the present
straitened condition of affairs, in
refusing to consent to any reduc-
ton of her territory, when that
territory is already gone. Were
the Prussian armies to withdraw
entirely from Paris,-simply to es-
tablish themselves at Metz and
Strasbonrg, France, for a year to
come could not take the first step
to dislodgo tbom, or rn1ake good her
claims to the lost provinces. With
her veteran armies prisoners or un-
der parole, she would not dream Of
me citing the Prussian forces in the
open field, to say nothing of invest
ing the fortresses she has just been
to surrender. What,
then, is her object in her Meoretic
ally claiming that which she has
lost, and has no means of recon
quering? Is it the design ofProv-
idence that this corrupt, dissolute
modern Babylon shall be utterly
and ruined, or that this
and apparently mad tenaci-
by of purpose is in the end to bring
about interpositions and compli-
cations that will set Europe ablaze,
and prove over again that 'man
proposes, but Col d'SpoSeS' ?
