the dignity of manhood, and rise by force
Of self respect sup rior to every misf'r-
tune. For after all the homage paid to
external pomp and possession, it is the
man,the true man-that counts In the
great battle of life, and on the pages of his
tory. What has not such q man accom-
plished, inspite of so called disadvantages
and fortune, in spite of obscure birth, lg-
noble caste, and perhaps still worse inner
tied embarrassments. Look over the re-
cord of those who have made our human
ity illustrious, and see how few were born
and nurtured in the lap of worldly, sensual
pride. The pioneers, the leaders. the saw
iors of our race have been chiefly of the
humblest origin, 80 far as temporal sur
roundIngs were concerned. 10 the brave
soul, proud of it's manhood and of continu
ance in lofty aspirings, all conquest is
possible and easy, and in the march to
higher goals it gathers without effort, the
baser spells of fortune and renown. But
there is q pride as mean, contemplate and
debasiRg as it's counterpart is elevating and
noble. 1t is pride of birth, without per
sonal merit to back it-pride of wealth,
acquired or Inherited, without virtue or
generosity in it's use-pride of dress and
equipage, which knaves and fools and fell
ons even may compass. Indeed, the lower
the quality of pride, the moro offensive
aud ostentatious it's exhibitions. Those
are often the proudest, in the common &C
ceptance of the term, who have the least
to be proud of. Vain, shallow minds,
characterless, spreading their CANDY plumes
to the gaze of witlings, and winning after
all only sneers and contempt. How true
the lines of the peasant poet" Burns:
g. The rank is but the guinea's stamp,
The mans the gold for all that '"
False pride can never secure the esteem,
nor the respect, Of those who surround us.
We may delude ourselves with the idea
that we are making a grand impression on
society by its displays, but in the end we
shall find that we were only laughed at,
and set down as shallow masquers and
conceited FOOLS"

"Truth" says tho Dublin Nation sis some-
times a disagreeable dose; and we have
little expectation that Englishmen will re-
ceive with any degree of cordiality the
facts forced on their attention within the
past week by the correspondent who has ad
dressed himself to the subject of " Poetical
Politics." Tho writer att-mpts to correct
some of the mistaken notions on which Brit
ish brag is generally founded; and, 10 doing
so points out that the famous "victories" on
which the English base so much self glorf
cation were, for tho most part, won by men
who were not English at all Even Waterloo,
he shows, does not leave the bold Briton
much by Englishmen IA by English money,
and tho army which conquered under
Wellington was composed of four foreign
ers to one British soldier. There were only
some % 900 English troops on the field, out
of total OF 100000 men. This is merely
timely reminder of well-known fact, but
the closing passage in the letter is so
charming in it's candour that it deserves to
he given in full "In the Spanish War of
Succession under Queen Anne the English
properly so called, had q disproportIonate
share of the fighting work thrown upon
them. In six years (l7O5 HlD we sent
10000 born Enghshmen to the fields of
Spain. No Continental war deserves so
truly to be called the English soldiers until
the Peninsula. But Tlark the irony of fate.
We leere unsuccessful, and, consequently, the
fe8ts of our armies attained no popularity.
no TyrtHus sang them. People dwelt
much more complacently on the victories
of Marlborough at the head of the great
foreign cualitions-nt Blenheim there were
only 1000 English out of the 60 600 allies
than on the more national but less brilliant
NEGATIVE successes" Of Stanhope and his
fellows. The moral of all this leave to
my patriotic censOrs to find out"

The following "practical' editorial We
copy from the Mobile Register, which is re-
cognized as one of tho leading, if not the
leading exponent of Southern views. The
article being as applicable to the city of New
Orleans as to that of Mobile we publish it
entire.
TWO STATES THAT HELP THEMSELVES.
spoke of us as "a paper which is ever wide
awake as n weasel to the interest of its own
section" We accepted the compliment with
proper humility, and yet with the feeling
that it was not all undeserved. We have
felt the absolute necessity of being wide
awake; wo have tried to show our people
each and every opening, however small +,
into which they might insert the end of q
practically producing wedge, and drive it
homo to remuneration by their own hands.
We have in effect made n Register motto
of our own, and we propose to keep before
our people the substance of its great truth :
AN OUNCE OF PRODUCTION IS WORTH A
FOUND OF AGENCY!
Commerce, trade, busincss-agcncy and
interchange of ready made commodities,
call it by what name We may-are the
realM of a State. Production is her life
blood. Whether that production be from
the surface of her soil, from it's bowels, or
the waters that divide or bound it, the
effect upon her wealth Is not only enhanced
but is made permanent and always increus-
ing. Where natural advantages of lOca-
ton and carrying facilities are added to
most generous natural gifts of production,
there is no sort of excuse if the State
that combines these twin sources of power
does not make herself foremost among her
sisters of the federation. When she ne
elects these opportunities the fault lies
solely at the door of those who have her
interests il control and who will not open
their eyes to see the open road to CONNER
cial greatness. Aud in following bliudfold
the worn and narrowed paths of oidtime
usage only, n people lose that commercial
greatness, trhich is made up Of indiuidudI
prosperity and ,rcdlh New England, with
her ice bound soil and her rigorous climate
is proof of what untiring energy-of what
doggCd pluck may do. In her battle with
nature New England has won victory
greater than that of any trade battle else
where fought aud to-day the buzz of ten
thousand factories and the whirr of mil
lions of spiudles echo. in every money mar
ket of tho world, the shrill refrain to the
paying song of Yankee progress.
And what is true OF States il equally true
of cities, oven in n compound ratio for
cities are the heart and the arteries of c"uu-
try production oven if they bo not always
the braius as we'll. Hcucc we have per
sisted, with persistence sorcly tried, in
pointing out to Mobile the details of the
method t" succeed. We have shouted aud
reiterated and rc.eChucd over aud over
gaiu-NaRmE dctHre We have hesought
our people To make tchdt they need, IVher-
ever it was possible Ia do We have
urged them ceaselessly to double their OWL

A lust pride is one of the most beautiful
manifestations of human character-a dis
position to be cultivated and encouraged at
every age and in every condition. Pride
in the maintenance of a spottess character
aud pure life-prde in the performance of
noble aud generous actions-pride in
doing the best we can and emulatiug the
virtues of those who transcend us-prrde
in all things that tend to elevate the MUD
aud heart, and that, however the vulgar
and vicious may regard us, insure to us
more aud more of the esteem of tho vir-
tuous. Fortified by such pride, we can, in
the midst of poverty and trial, maintain

Though sometimes small evils, like invisible
insects, lnlict pain, and a single hair may stop

lies in not suffering tritles to vex one, and in
prudently cultivating an underground OF small
pleasures, since very few great ones, alas! are
let on long lenses.
