MBS. STOWB'8 NEW NOVEL.

It has always seemed to us that the anti-slaveiy element in the two former novels of Mrs. Stowe, stood in (lie way of a full appreciation of her remarkable genius, at least in her own country. It was so easy to account for the unex- ampled popularity of " Uncle Tom," by attributing it to a cheap sympathy with sentimental philanthropy 1 As people began to recover from the first enchantment, they began also to resent it, and began to complain that a dose of that insane Garrison root which takes the teason prisoner had been palmed upon them without their knowing it, and that their ordinary water gruel of fiction, thinned with sentiment and thickened with moral, had been hocussed with the bewildering hasheesh of Abolition. We had the advantage of reading that extraordinary book in Europe, long after the whirl of excitement produced by i's publication had subsided, in the seclu- sion of distance, and with a judgment undisturbed by those political sympathies which it is impossible, perhaps un- wise, to avoid at home. We felt then, and believe now, that the secret of Mrs. Stowe's power lay in that same genius by which the great successes in creative literature have always been achieved—the genius that instinctively goes right to the organic elements of human nature, whether under a white skin or a black, and which disregards as trivial the conventional and factitious notions which make so large a part both of our thinking and feeling. Works of imagination written with an aim at immediate impression are common ly ephem- eral, like Miss Martineaux's Tales and Elliott's Corn-law verses ; but the creative faculty of Mrs. Stowe, like that of Cervantes in " Don Quixote" and of Fielding in "Joseph Andrews," overpow- ered the narrow specialty of her design, and expanded a local and temporary theme with the cosmopolitan of genius.

It is a proverb that " there is a great deal of human nature in men," but it is equally and sadly true that there is amazingly little of it in books. Field- ing is the only English novelist who deals with life in its broadest sense. Thackeray, his disciple and congener, and Dickens, the congener* of Smollett, do not so much treat of life as of the strata of society—the one studying nature from the club-room window, the other from the reporter's box in the Police Court. It may be that the general obliteration of distinctions of rank in this country which is generally considered a detriment to the novelist, will in the end turn to his advantage by compelling him to depend for his effects on the contrasts and collisions of innate character, rather than on those shallow traits superinduced by particular social arrangemeats or hereditary associations. Shakspeare drew his ideal, and Fielding natural men and women; Thackeray draws either gentlemen or snobs, and Dickens either unnatural men or the od- dities natural only in the lowest grades of a highly artificial system of society. The first two knew human nature; of the two latter, one knows what is called the World, and the other the Streets of London. Is it possible that the very social democracy which here robs the novelist of so much romance, so much costume, so much antithesis of carte, so much, in short, that is purely external, will give him a set-off in making it easier for him to get at that clement of universal humanity which neither the two extremes of an aristocratic system, nor the salient and picturesque points of

familiar scenes, nnd of a society which plie was bred, of which she has seen so ninny varieties—and that, too, in the country where it is the most naive and original? It is a great satisfaction to us that in " The Minister's Wooing" she has chosen her theme and laid her scene amid New England habits and traditions. There is no other writer capable of perpetuating for us, in a work tif Art, a style of thought and manners which railways and newspapers will soon rentier as palaeozoic as the masto- dons or the saurians. Thus far the story has fully justified our hopes. The leading characters arc all fresh and individual creations—Mrs. Katy Scudder, the notable New England house-wife; Mary, in whom Cupid is to try conclu- sions with Calvin ; James Marvyn, the adventurous boy of the coast, in whose heart the wild religion of nature swells till the strait swalhings of Puritanism ■TO burnt | Dr. Hopkins, the conscientious minister, come upon a time when the social prestige of the clergy is wan- ing, and whose independence will test the voluntary system of ministerial support ; Simeon Brown, the man of theo- logic dialectics, in whom the utmost perfection of creed is shown not to be in- consistent with the most contradictory imperfection of life—and all these are characters new to literature. And the scene is laid just far enough away in point of time to give proper tone and perspective.

We think we find in the story the promise of an interest ns unhackneyed as it will be intense. There is room for the play of all the passions and interests that make up the great tragi-comedy of life, while all the scenery and accesso- ries will be those which familiarity has made dear to us. We are a little afraid of Colonel Burr, to be sure, it is so hard to make a historical personage fulfil the conditions demanded by the novel of everyday life. He is almost sure to full below our traditional conception of him, or to rise above the natural and easy level of character necessary to keeping, into the vague or melo-dramatic. Moreover, we do not want a novel of society from Mrs. Stowe; she is quite too good to be wasted in that way, and her tread is much more firm on the turf of the " door-yard" or the pasture, and the sanded iloor of the farm-house, than on the velvet of the talon. We have no notion how she is to develop her plot, but we think we foresee chances for her best power in the struggle which seems foreshadowed between Mary's conscientious admiration of the Doctor and her half-conscious passion for James, before she discovers that one of these conflicting feelings means simply moral liking and approval, and the other that she is a woman and that she loves. And is not the value of dogmatic theology as a rule of life to be thoroughly tested for the Doctor by his sluveholding par- ishioners ? Is he not to learn the bitter difference between intellectual acceptance of a creed and that true partaking of the sacrament of love and faith and sorrow that makes Christ the very life- blood of our being and doing ? And has not James Marvyn also his lessons to be taught ? We foresee him drawn gradually back by Mary from his recoil against Puritan formalism, to a perception of how every creed is pliant and plastic to a beautiful nature, of how much charm there may be in an hereditary faith, even if it have become almost conventional.

In the materials of character already present in the story, there is scope for Mrs. Stowe's humor, pathos, clear moral sense and quick eye for the scenery of life. We do not believe that there is

OBEYING ORDERS. The Parisians are laughing over the

last good story from the German watering places. It appears that Princess N , who resides in a sumptuous chateau, near the bath of Nenweid, sent a dinner invitation, according lo her hospitable custom, lo Major P , an officer on service in the garrison near by. The major chanced to be on duty, and was obliged to decline; but on sending his excuse by his faithful sergeant, he told bim to bring his dinner, as he came back—meaning, of coarse, that he should go for it lo the neighboring restaurant. The subaltern chanced %» be very literal in his habit of mind, and delivered the two errands at once, to the servant at the gale of the chateau.

Very much astonished, at first, thut her supposed guest, should send for his dinner, the princess soon entered into the joke ; and, ordering a huge tray to be sumptuously laden from her kitchen, she dispatched it by the hands of the sergeant and her own footman.

Astounded at the magnificence of the " dinner for one," the major summoned up bis messenger and soon came to ex- planation; but quite too spirit mil to lose the enjoyment of the luxury, he invited a couple of brother officers, and they made a capital feast. Only, before sitting down, be gave the. sergeant five dollars, and instructed bim to go to the confectioner and procure a splendid castle of sweetmeats, taking it, with his compliments, to the princess.

All was dutifully done but her high- ness, in consideration of the subaltern's so well performing his duty, sent him out a dollar, for his perquisites as messenger.

'• Excuse mc!" said the literal sergeant, as he looked at the dollar, and supposing it was to pay for the confec- tionary he had bought," excuse me, but it cost five; four dollars more, if you please."

The princess, by this time understood the character of the man, and she gravely sent out the other four dollars !

The major was still at dinner with his feasting brother officers, when the faithful sergeant entered with the military touch to his cap, and laid down the five dollars on the table.

How many of the military buttons the gallant officer burst off in containing his rage while the return of those five

honest men ought to make it a rule to burn up, without reading, anonymous communications. This is our rule. It is only now ad then that we begin to read without I nowing that the. letter is nameless. But usually, a letter without a signature goes into the fire, or into strips for the wind to play with."

SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY. The New York Commercial Adver-

tiser gives an account of the brutal and disgraceful manner in which a lady of Brooklyn has been driven from Aiken, S. C. She had been spending the winter at a hotel there, with a sick daughter, who required a mild climate. Some weeks ago she wrote a letter to a brother in western New York, in which she spoke of the evils of slavery. This letter was published, and some one sent a copy of the paper to the Postmaster in Aiken. A public meeting was immediately called, and a committee appointed to ferret out the writer. A Northern gentleman who, as an invalid, happened also to be at the hotel, was suspected, and fjwas threatened with lynch law if he did not confess. As, of course, he could only persist in a denial he would probably have suffered accordingly, had not the lady nobly come forward to exonerate him by acknowl- edging the letter as her own, affirming at the same time that she was not privy to its publication.

The citizens then turned their wrath upon her, and she was peremptorily ordered to leave the place in forty-eight

| hours. The lady pleaded for more time on behalf of her sick daughter, but the citizens of Aiken knew no such humanity. She asked for liberty to remain until her husband could arrive to escort her and her sick child. Butthecitizens of Aiken knew nothing of gallantry or courtesy. The order was imperative, in spite of the earnest pleuding of the woman, wife and mother. Nor was this all. The landlord of the hotel ordered the mother and sick daughter to " leave the premises in half an hour." What further occurred between the lady and the inhuman citizens of Aiken, South Carolina, we are not informed. But we learn that on Wednesday morn-

! ing last her husband received a letter , apprising him of her situation, and on the afternoon of the same day he started for the South, and met his wife and

contrast between, the two, can ulone lay | any other one who, by birth, breeding, open to him.

We hope to see this problem solved j by Mrs. Stowe. That kind of romantic Interest which Scott evolved from the relations of lord and vassal, of chief and clansman, from the social more than the ' moral contrast of Roundhead and Cav- alier, of far-descended pauper and nou-' veau riche ; which Cooper found in the clash of savagery with civilization, and , the shaggy virtue bred on the border- land between the two, Indian by habit,. white by tradition, Mrs. Stowe seems in , her former novels to have sought in a form of society alien to her sympathies, and too remote for exact study Ur for i the acquirement of local truth, which is the slow result of unconscious observa- j tion. There can be no stronger proof;

of the greatness of her genius, of her { possessing that conceptive faculty which belongs to the higher order of imagination, than the avidity with which Uncle Tom was read at the South. It settled the point that this book was true to ho-']

Y. Tribune. I as I

A good illustration of what personal effort in a good cause may accomplish is thus given in the Congregationali$t:

" About six weeks ago, a young man connected with the Y. M. Christian As- sociation, on a visit to his home in Windsor, Me., started a prayer-meeting in the village school-house. He arose

WASHINGTON. It has been observed that Washing- ,

ton seldom smiled and never laughed. This, however, is not correct. One instance is mentioned by a gentleman, well known for his veracity, with a good degree of sangfroid. At the time the troops were encamped at Cambridge, information was received at head-quar- ters that the English were about to leave Boston to give them battle. All was bustle and confusion. The soldiers were strolling over the town, and the officers were but ill prepared for the approaching recontre. Some of the generals were calling for therr_horses, and others for their arins/nnd, among the rest, was General-. Greene, at the boitom of the stairs, brawling to the barber for his wig. " Bring my wig, you rascal; bring my wig. General Lee diverted himself and the company at the expense of Greene. " Your wig is behind the looking-glass, sir." At which Greene, raising his eyes, per- ceived by the mirror that the wig was where it should be—on his bead. Wash- ington, in a fit of laughter, threw himself on the sofa, and the whole group presented rather a ludicrous spectacle.

Suppose the City Item tells an original anecdote of Washington. On one occasion, when he lived in Market St-, just below Sixth, he stood at his front window, while a body of troops passed down the street in review. A few steps below, a building was in course of erec- tion, and, as usual, there was a large bed of slacked lime in the street, which caused a horse lo shy, throwing bis proud rider fairly and squarely into the whitest and softest bed he had ever occupied. The sight of this white soldier, so suddenly and ludicrously transformed, filled Washington and his wife with laughter, and they gave way to it, till tears came to their rescue. This anecdote is well authenticated.—Phila. City Item.

EVENING HOUKS FOR MECHANICS. —What have not evening hours done for mechanics who had only ten hours' toil ? Hearken to the following facts :

" One of the best editors the West- minster Review could ever boast of, ami one of the most brilliant writers of the passing hour, was a cooper in Aber- deen. One of the editors of the Lon- don Daily Journal was a baker in El- gin ; perhaps one of the best reporters of the London Times was a wenver in

I KdinbUrg; the editor of the Witness .vas a stone-mason. One of the ablest ministers in London was a blacksmith in Dundee, and another was a watchmaker in Banff. The late Dr, Milne, of China, was a herd boy in lihyne, The Principal of the London Missionary Society's College al Hong Kong was a saddler in Iluntly, and one of the best missionaries that ever went to India was a tailor in Keith. The leading machin-

. ist on the London and Birmingham ! Railway was a mechanic in Glasgow ; | and perhaps the very richest iron foun- ' der in England was n working man in

Morap. Sir James Clark, Her Majes- ty's physician, was u druggist in Banff. Joseph Hume was a sailor first, and

, then a luboror at a mortar and pestle in j Mont rose ; Mr. McGregor, the member t from Glasgow, was a poor boy in Ros- ' shire. James Wilson, the member from i Westbury, was a ploughman in Ilad- | dington; and Arthur Anderson, the member from Orkney, earned his bread by the sweat of his brow in the Ultima Thule. These men, however, spent their leisure hours in acquiring useful knowledge."

CRUELTY 07 THE SLAVE CODE. That sueh inhumanity as is narrated

below by a Washington correspondent of the New York Evening Post, is permitted by the laws of the DkHriet of Columbia, is a disgrace to the nation:

" Said Manuel Mason and wife were the slaves of a white woman, living a few miles out of the city. A few years ago Manuel was taken sick with iiilhnu- atory rheumatism, and was given up by the doctors as incurable. Under these circumstances his mistress offered to sell him for three hundred dollars. Nobody would touch bim at the price. Finally she offered to give the cripple his freedom for the same sum, he to pay her in installments. He accepted the offer, and paid off the entire sum in due course of time. He partially recovered his health, and hired the time of his wife for so much a year, that she might keep house for him in Washington. They raised a large number of children at tfieir own expense, but invariably at about the age of ten years the mistress took away each child and sold it off or appropriated it for her own use.

At last only one child was left— ' little Ben.' He was, like all youngest children, a favorite—the baby — the comfort of the old man and woman.

In September last one of our new police approached the small dwelling of Manual Mason, in search of' little Bun,' for the last child had been taken to minister to the voracious appetite of the monster, Slavery. Benjamin was missing, however. The father never had him in bis power or possession for one moment, yet he was suddenly arrested for ' harboring a slave 1' The law dates 1707, under which he was taken, and the literal penalty is ' one hundred pound of tobacco per hour' for each hour of harboring a slave. You will perceive that the father is simply guilty of not finding his runaway boy. The officer told Mason to hunt up his boy, and upon his neglecting to do this lie was thrown into jail. Although no evidence was offered against him, yet the Justice would not let Mason out on any less bail than $1500, which was furnished by a kind-hearted citizen of the district. A jury very quickly brought in a verdict of guilty, though with no more evidence of guilt than is to be found in this letter. Mason was remanded to jail, where for days he lay without a bed, and all the time with scant clothing. He lay in jail forty-nine days before Judge Crawford would deign to sentence him. The sentence was to pay a fine of S166.G6 ; being S1.66 • for every hour the slave was harbored—one half of said amount to go to the use of the owner of the slave, and the other half to the use of the United Slates.' I quote from the Judge's sentence as reported in the National Intelligencer. Mason wus also sentenced to pay all costs, and remain in jail till the entire sum was paid I The District Attorney was at last prevailed upon to consent, upon ample security that the money will be paid at the end of three months, to let the poor negro go, and he is at liberty once more."

ANONYMOUS LETTERS.—Hear what Henry Ward Beecher says of this kind of correspondence:

DEAFNESS CURED BY ELECTRICITY. —A citizen of Altona, Pa., suddenly lost his hearing, and after every means known to the physicians had been exhausted, electricity was tried. An instrument was produced, and placing the end of a piece of wire in each ear, the electric current was let on lightly at first, and gradually increased. After continuing the operation sometime, the hearing was so much restored that he could hear a heavy rap on the table. Again the wires were inserted, and the fluid applied. On removing them the second time, the patient could hear loud talking in the room. This operation took place in the afternoon, nnd the patient was allowed to rest till the next morning, when the wires were again inserted, and after applying the fluid for a few minutes, the bearing was perfectly restored. —Altona Tribune.

GOOD OABIOAT0BE. Some years ago there was a good car-

icature, very graphically portraying these grades of difference in the ardor of the three nations. An Englishman, an Irishman, and a Scotchman, were represented as looking through a confectioner's window, at a beautiful young woman serving in the shop.

" Ob!" exclaimed Mr. Patrick, " do let us be after spending half a crown with the dear crayture, that we may look at her conveniently, and have a bit of a chat with her."

" You extravagant dog!" says Mr. George in reply, " 1 am sure one half the money will do quite as well. But let us go in by all means; she is such a charming girl."

" Ah I wait a wee 1" interposed Mr. Andrew ; diuna ye kin it'll serve our purpose equally well just to ask the bon- nie lassie to gie us twa sixpences for a shilling, and inquire where's Mr. Thomp- son's house, and sich like ? We're not hungry, and may as well save the siller." —London Dispatch.

" A man that has a soul worth a sixpence, must have enemies. It is utterly impossible for the best men to please the whole world, and the sooner this is understood the better. Do right, though you have enemies. You cannot escape them by doing wrong; and it is a little mean to barter away your honor and in- tegrity, and divest yourself of moral courage to gain—what? Nothing. Bet- ter abide by the truth—frown down nil opposition, and rejoice in the feeling which must inspire a free and independent man."—Nashville Gazette.

Before marrying a lady for her money, consider what a terrible incumbrance you will find your'wife in the event of its being lost.

NORTH ANDOVKK.—Tuesday, June 28, Arno P. Ellis was brought before Juslice Merrill, of this town, and fined $10 and costs for violation of the dog law. Whole amount paid Cl.1.38.

Wednesday, June 29, Phineas Winslow, a laborer from Vi., was taken before Judge Stevens, of the Police Court at Lawrence, charged with forging a note against I. O. Loring, for $350. Bound over in the sum of S1000 for (he Superior Court. Failing to obtain bail he was committed.

Wedsjusd.iy night at about 12 o'clock a fire was discovered in the barn of Moses Foster, near his house. In about one hour the building ami contents were entirely destroyed. It contained a horse, chaise, hay, firming utensils, etc. Loss 8800 ; partially insured at Andover. The fire department, witli the greatest exertion, saved the house, which was in imminent danger. This is the second barn Mr. Foster has had destroyed by fire within a few weeks. Eight fires have been set in the town within tho past three mouths.

CRLEBBATIOST AT LAWBKNCB.—The celebration at Lawrence on Monday next, will be a grand affair in all its appointments. Early in the morning the several companies of Antiques and Horribles will parade as a battalion, and after being reviewed on the Common, will be addressed by their Gov- ernor. An unusual amount of gusto may be expected.

The great feature of the day will be the procession, composed of military companies from Haverhill, Lowell and Salem, the fire companies from home and abroad, the city governments of Lowell ami Lawrence, the various civic societies and invited guests, a regiment of lady operatives, from each corporation, clad in white, adorned with flowers, and accompanied by appropriate floral emblems.

The procession is to move at 9 o'clock, to favor the ladies and school children, and the route marked out is quite short. The floral display will be in common with the rest, instead of at an early hour as was previously contemplated. The oration will be delivered on the Common, by Hon. Henry Wil- son. A dinner to the military and invited guests will be given in the City Hall; Hon. Daniel Saunders, Jr., will preside., and John C. Hoadly, Esq., act as toaslmaster. After dinner the military will be reviewed by Mayor Oliver.

In the evening the Common is to be illuminated by a thousand Chinese lanterns, and the Manchester (N. II) Cornet Band,

THE BATTLE OF MAGENTA.—It is said that the two days' battle of Magenta swept from existence more than twice the standing army of the United States. The whole regular army of the Union numbered, on the first of last January, twelve thousand nine hundred and forty-three men, of all ranks, from general officers down toprivates. At the least calculation between twenty-five and thirty thousand men fell at the battle of Magenta.

A TRAVELLING SUBSCRIBER.

Central itttos Utottars. BOXFORD.—On Sunday evening an old

and unoccupied dwelling house near the Boxford and Topsfield line, belonging to Mr. Isaac Clapp, was set on fire and con- sumed. Mr. Isaac Hale, who lives near, while on the way to the fire, was suddenly seized by the suspicion that the house might have been set, in order to draw him away from his home, and rob his house either of money or other valuables. He accordingly returned and took his money, but forgot a gold watch belonging to his wife, and then went back to the fire. After a time his wife, who was also present at the fire, returned home to get her husband's coat. When she arrived at the house a man suddenly left it and rah across the plain, hiding behind some bushes. She at once informed a man who was passing, of this fact, and he pursued the suspected person, causing him to leave his place of concealment and clt'cct his escape. Upon entering the house her fold watch was missing, having probably

een stolen by the man who was seen leaving the house.

About two weeks since, a shoemaker's shop was broken into and robbed of shoes, and it is believed that this robbery was per- petrated by tho Bame parly who set the building of Mr. Clapp on fire, and robbed the house of Mr. Hale.

P. S. We are glad to learn that the thief was caught, on Monday, while attempting to sell the watch at the store of Messrs. Palmer & Batchelders, Boston.—ijaiein Gazelle.

AN EXTRAORDTNARY FLOUR CONTRACT. —A correspondent of the Missouri Demo- crat, writing from Camp Floyd, Utah Ter- ritory, charges that a great swindle is being perp'etrated under a contract for flour for the United Slates Army. The contractors are John Holliday and Col. Martin, who receive $28.60 per 10O pounds. The annual consumplion is about 2,000,000 pounds, which would make the amount of the eon- tract $572,000. Taking into consideration the fact that Mr. Win. Martin and E. P. Stanton offered to furnish the supply of flour for $10 per 100 pounds, and that Mr. J. C. Little agreed to take the same contract at $7.50 per 100 pounds, it seems strange that Messrs. Holliday & Martin have been awarded iliis contract at $28.(iO per 100 pounds. The flour furnished is manufactured in the territory, is of poor quality, and is bought by the contractors for $5 to $8 per 100 pounds. At the latter rate they are at an expense of $160,000 in fulfilling the contract, leaving them a snug little bal- ance of four hundred and twelve thousand dollars. The writer alleges that there are probably four partners in this contract. Mi. John Holliday, Maj. Martin, Wm. Rus- sell, (firm of Russell, Majors & Waddell.) and Secretary Floyd. They will realize one hundred thousand dollars each, and be at no trouble or risk.—lloston Journal.

BOXFORD.—A gray eagle, measuring six feet and ten inches across the wings, was shot in Boxford on the IS til imt., by Win. H. Newhall. His mate was afterwards seen in the vicinity, but taking warning by the fate of her companion, made quirk pinion strokes to altitudes bc)ond the reach of the sportsman.

The receipts of the Newbury port Rail Road the present season are from forty to fifty per cent, over the corresponding time of last year.

MILK.—We are informed by a milkman largely engaged in supplying Boston, that all the pure milk ol Massachusetts could not meet the wanls of that city. To meet the deficiency, adulteration with water, and one article which he would not name, is extensively practiced. With that one article he assures us that from four quarts of milk eight quarts of a liquid shall be produced, so close- ly resembling the genuine, that very few can distinguish the difference.—Lowell Cit.

GROVELAND, June 27, 1859. Messrs. Editors:—The Fourth of July

celebration in this town will consist of a floral procession, composed of the different schools in town, undor the escort of the " Old Light Infantry Company," which will march through the principal streets, preceded by the Maiden Brass Band, (fourteen pieces,) to the grove, .in " Uncle Billy's woods." Here it is proposed to Iiavc a good old-fashioned "pic-nic," where all, without distinction of parU or sect, can meet together and pass the day in a social manner.

In the evening we shall have a grand display of fireworks, under the direction of that " prince of pyrotechnists," well known in this vicinity, Maj. John Emery, of New- bury port.

Our people are taking hold of the matter in good earnest, and no doubt we shall have a pleasant time. WAVEULY. 1 m >

ConoF.s, N, Y., June 24, 1859. Messrs. Editor*:— This manufacturing

village is situated in the town of Watervliet, just below the world-famous Falls of Mo- hawk. It is nine miles from Albany, and three miles from Troy. On the opposite side of the river are Waterford and Lan- singburg. Cohoes is increasing in importance, and is destined at no very distant period to become a great place. The streets are wide and lined with buildings some of which, for architectural design will compare favorably with any in the cities. It has the best water power in the State. The Erie Canal passes through the village, and is here intersected with the Northern Canal extending to Lake Champlain; several railroads also connect at this point. The population numbers about ten thousand, and there are six churches, five large cotton fac- tories, ten knitting mills, one pin factory, and a very extensive edge tool factory.

Some of the mills are gigantic in their various operations. The Harmony Mills Co. is as large as any in Lowell. Mr. Garner, a merchant of New York, is one of the principal proprietors. The mills, bleach- cries, and dwelling houses, cover ten or twelve acres of land, and cost $2,000,000. Everything looks as neat as at a private dwelling, and the machinery is as perfect as money and skill can make it. The principal knitting mills are built of brick, in the most thorough manner, and furnished with the best, machinery. The cards and jacks were built by Messrs. Davis & Furber of North Andover. The knitting machinery is perfect, and shirts, drawers and socks are thrown off in immense quantities, and of excellent quality.

The Albany Solid-Head Pin Co. have extensive works, and the intelligent machinery which not only converts a piece of brass wire into a pin, but which so far imitates the human hand as Jo stick the pins on paper, is a wonder. It is a curious affair, but so simple in its ingenious and well-adapted mechanism, that one is surprised not that it has been invented, but that it was not invented before. Pins with this machinery are manufactured at an astonishingly low price—three and a half cents per package

The Newburyport Herald states that an individual in that city drank three quarts of milk the other evening, without, stopping, and after taking a chance to breathe, im- bibed another quart.

MOUNT VERNON.—A Washington letter in the New York Commercial Advertiser states that the proprietor of Mount Vernon is making investments in lands in the West, preparatory to removal, and that he will be ready to give up Mount Vernon in the fall. The ladies need, according to an accurate and economical estimate, about twenty-five thousand dollars, to enable them to put the mansion and other buildings in repair, and to improve the grounds. The front portion of the mansion is falling down. It is slightly propped by posts. The honse will soon he a mass of ruins if it be longer neglected.

In a lecture on Marriage, Rev. G. W. Woodruff, of Connecticut, said—" I know of no more distressing thing than a large- hearted, noble, expansive man, linked to a petulant, little-souled, henpecking woman, or a noble woman linked to one of those sordid, mean little libels upon manhood. If such is your case, why, get a divorce, in heaven's name, and God help ye to it!"

Senator Douglas was presented with a cane on Friday morning, by Maun Ilaiues, in behalf of the Tenth Ward of Cllieagr.. The Journal says the cane is of oak, of large dimensions, and very curious workmanship. It is covered with figures and devices—figures of Washington and Douglas in very bold relief, eagles, clusters of grapes, liberty-caps, horns of plenty, star-spangled banners, cannons, drums, trumpets, &c. I The handle of the cane is a huge horn of t plenty. Over the head of Douglas is the us-jription, " People's Sovereignly." The

THE MISSION SHIP MORNING STAR.— This beautiful packet has received extensive- repairs at Honolulu. The Honolulu Commercial at April 28 says the Morning Star was two months in port undergoing repairs. The after part orthe vessel has been entirely rebuilt, scarcely an old rail being left. She had been thoroughly salted. A new foremast had been put in and a new foreyard—the old one having been condemned. She had ln*en newly coppered and sheathed throughout, and in bettercon- dition than when she first left Boston. The expense, not including the copper, which was sent from Boston, was about $4000, The Morning Star left .Honolulu for the Marquesas, on the 25ih of April, intending to touch at Kalakekua and Tahiti. She was out three days, healing about in very heavy weather, split ing her sails, &c, when Captain Brown pnt back for repairs. He sailed again on Tuesday the 3d of May.

SOLDIERS OF TUIE REVOLUTION.—The Pension office had upon its rolls,on the 30th of June, 1858, the names of 253 revolutionary soldiers. Of this small remnant of he roes, information has been received that during the succeeding half year4(i went to their long accoun , leaving, upon the first of the present year, 207 survivors. The ages of some of these soldiers are stated to have been 100 to 102 years. Thus is dwindling away the small number of 'hat gallant band which has come down to us from a former generation, to pass forever from the earth, before this generation shall have finished its work. At the period above referred to, there wrre 4200 widows of revolutionary soldiers upon the pension rolls, and in six months death diminished that number by 295. Of those living at the beginning of the year, 45 were the wives of revolutionary' soldiers before the termination of the great struggle.

Jenny Lind recently gave a charity concert in London, which was not advertised, and only the aristocracy wore admitted by special invitation. The receipts were six thousand dollars. She was in full health, and sa g with all her old power.

On the 15th of June, the Nahant estate known as the '• Prcseott Cottage," was sold by order of the Trusteesof the late William II. Prescott. The estate comprised a two- story house and about one acre of land, and embraced the celebrated " Swallow Cave" and " Pea Island " Charles Inches, of Bos- ton, was the purchaser, at $5,350.

A dispatch has been received at St. John's, N. F., countermanding the ordering to Eng- land of tho Lieut. Governor of the island, Col. Law, who is commander of the forces —his services being necessary on the island. The troops on the station are to he consid- erably augmented, and the forts fortified with heavier ordnance.

POLITICAL, -r- A correspondent of the Now York Commercial says it is generally believed that Col. Forney will be the clerk or printer of the next House. He will bo brought forward by the anti-I.ecotnpton members, by way of a rebuke to the Presi- dent's territorial policy.

M ANNY'S IMPROVED PREMIUM MOWER'

And Combined Mower and Reaper.

The Best and Lightest Dm ft machine in use!

GRAND GOLD MKDSL AND DIPLOMA awarded as best Mower and Reaper.

SILVER MEDAL as Mower, and SILVER MEDAL as Reaper, by the United States Agricultural Society—at the great trial of Mowers and Reapers at Syracuse, N. Y., in 1857.

I^HIS Machine, with the improvement of 1859, is warranted to give entire satisfac-

tion in any kind of grass or grain. The one horse machine, which is the lightest and best ever offered to the public, will cut and spread one acre in seventy minutes. The two-horse machine will do the same work in fifty minutes. This machine can be worked with oxen, as it has a reel to remove the cut grass from the finger-bar; it also starts in the grass without hacking, which are very essential points for slow movement.

TESTIMONIAL. Wo purcha-ed last year, of the agent, C. C.

Holt, a Manny Mower, and applied the ox- power. Wu could mow an acre in an hour, and on our steep hill-sides found no trouble in mowing with oxen, where it would be difficult to go with horses. We mow about thirty-five acres, and nre prepared to say we save at least twntyjivr dulhtrs by the experiment. All the expense or trouble aside from the first cost of the Mower, was in grinding the knives once, which perhaps occupied an hour's time of two men. DEAN & BALLAHD HOLT.

CATtE OF FEUIT AND ORNAMENTAL TREES-

There seems to be a great deal of practical good sense and good economy in the following suggestions from a writer in the Germantown Telegrayh, which we copy as the basis of a few remarks on the above subject:

" It is not always necessary nor indispensable, in order to have good fruit, and enough of it, that a section of the farm be especially set apart and appropriated to its cultivation. There are many corners and ■ segments of soil,' unoccupied by any valuable crop, where a few trees can be grown ; and ns such* ' out of the way'places are commonly rich in the elements of vegetable life, the growth of trees, when properly set, is there even more rapid and healthy than in the best cultivated soil. A homestead, where every nook and corner is occupied with prolific and healthy trees, presents a truly rural and beautiful picture of industry and thrift, and cannot fail to exert a most genial and elevating influence upon the owner's mind. Cherry, plum, peach and quince trees, together with apple and pear trees, grape vines, etc., may thus be scattered around your yards and enclo- sures properly nurtured, will soon reward you for your industry and fore- thought, with the grateful richness and and abundance of their fruit. Set a tree, therefore, by all means, wherever you can find room."

Trees are more easily protected-from the depredations of stock, if arranged in an orchard. If placed as near each other us may be without interfering, they mutually protect enoh other from cold winds ; and if arranged in an orchard form tbey better admit of being surrounded with rows of shrubs and forest trees—an excellent practice in peculiarly exposed situations. The setting of here and there a fruit tree, as the soil and selection favor, should hard ly be adopted as a substitute for the well-fenced and carefully preserved orchard. But ns an auxiliary means of securing fruit, of giving beauty to the landscape, and of appropriating each nook and corner to something useful, and for which it is best adapted, it de- si rves to be recommended.

Our object at this time is rather to speak of the care of trees. To set a tree, and then take no care of it, is labor lost For the first summer at least, the young, newly transplanted tree can not well endure the changes of temper- nture and occasional droughts incident to our climate. The application of water in moderate quantities, at sunset, would remedy the evil, if done regu- larly and with good judgment. But this would imply too much labor. It would be likely to be neglected. There is a surer way—cheaper and better. A mulching of straw, marsh-hay, leaves, or something of the kind, will keep the ground more oven in temperature, in a state more genial to the healing and growth of the roots, than all the personal attention that could possibly be applied. It costs nothing, for the en- riching properties of mulch are worth more than the labor of applying it. It is steadily there. It will never forget to do its offices of keeping the soil moist and of nearly uniform temperature by day and by night from week to week. It should be applied when a tree is transplanted, but may be applied advantage- ously long after. If your young trees tire not mulched, now is the time to do it.—American Farmers' Magazine.

" You look," said an Irishman to a pale, haggard smoker, " as if you had got out of your grave to light your cigar, and couldn't find your way back again."

An American, author says, "There is no wind go ill as not to blow good to somebody." What does he think of the breath of whiskey drinkers and tobacco smokers ?

A letter from San Francisco says :— " California is a great country generally —and whatever it doeth is done up to the handle. When it is dry it is the dryest dry; and when it is wet it is the wettest wet that ever one experienced."

When misfortunes happen to such as dissent from us in matters of religion, we call them judgments ; when to those of our own sect we call them trials ; when to persons neither way distinguished, we are content to impute them to the course of things.

The Providence Journal tells a good story of a lady who called on a witty friend who was not at home, and finding Ihe piano dusty wrote upon it, "slattern." The next day they met, and the lady said, •' I called on you yesterday." '• Yes," was the reply, " I saw your card on the piano."

A young lady in Piltsburg discarded her lover lor his small size. In his re- sentment he burned her father's house. '• Lo, what a great fire a little epark kindleth 1"

In a discourse in behalf of a blind asylum, the speaker began by gravely remarking, "If all the world were blind, what a melancholy eight it would be!"

In Italy, a lover places two fingers on his mouth, which signifies to a lady, " You are very handsome, and I wish to speak lo you." If she touches her cheek with her fan, and lets it gently drop, that signifies, " I consent;" but if she turns her head it is a denial. At a ball in Paris, to take a lady out to dance with her is only indifference; to place yourself near her is interett; but to follow her with your eyes in the dance, is love.

A pickerel was caught the other day with a squirrel in its stomach. Query —Did the squirrel go into the water after the pickerel, or the pickerel go up the tree after the squirrel ? A problem for a debating society.

Old Dr. Cook of Albany, in a flourishing advertisement speaking of the extent of his fame and powers, says— " There is no part of this country where people do not reside whom he has not cured."

He that is prodigal of thanks, is ava- ricious of gratitude.

How is it proved thut Adam was orthodox in his sentiments ? Because his belief was doubtless Eve-angelicel.

Jerry Diggs remembered his uncle in his will, for he bequeathed " to my mother's brother a flint and a knife to skin it with."

TOTAL DKFRAVITT. — A minister travelling through the West in a missionary capacity, several years ago, was holding an animated theological conversation with a good old lady upon whom he had culled ; in the course of which he asked her what she thought of the doctrine of total depravity 'i " Oh," she replied, "I think it a good doctrine, if people would only live up to it!"

A married lady inquires, if it were not intended for women to drive their husbands, why are they put through the bridle ceremony ?

There is a man in Boston so polite that he begs his own pardon every lime he tumbles down. Being good natured he always grants it.

A merchant lately advertising for a clerk " who could bear confinement," received an answer from one who had been seven years in confinement.

A thief being caught robbing a bank, when asked what he was doing, answered that he was " Only taking notes."

The worst of faults is a false heart; and the least comely cowring that can be imagined is a 1'u.Uehood.

A tobacconist in Cincinnati says he sells upward of two hundred pounds of snuff in the course of a month to ladies(?)

It is extraordinary how many defects wo can find in a friend after we have quarrelled with him. The same remark applies to a woman who has rejected us.

A miser having threatened to give a poor man some blows with a stick, " I don't believe you," said the other, " for you never gave anything."

Why is" a young lady dancing, like; a horse in a canter? Because she's a gal-hopping.

The pious John Newton says of back- biting : " I was once in a large company where very severe things were spoken of Mr. W , when one person sea- sonably observed that, though the Lord was pleased to effect conversions and edification by a variety of means, ho had never known anybody convinced of error by what was said of him behind his back. This was about thirteen years ago, and it has been on my mind as a useful hint ever since:" ' J

Ayer's Sarsaparilla, A compound remedy, in which we havo labored to produce the most effectual alterative that c.a be made. It is a concentrated extract of J'ara Sarsaparilla, FO combined with other substances of still greater alterative power as to afford an effective antidote for the diseases Sarsaparilla i* reputed to cure. It is believed that such a remedy is wanted by those who suffer from Sim- mons complaints, and that one which wilt accomplish their cure must provo of immenso service to this large class of our afflicted fellow- citizens. How completely this compound will do it has been proven by experiment on mnrv of the worst cases to be found of the follovviu^ complaints:

SCROFULA AND SCROFULOUS COMPLAINTS,

ERUPTIONS AND ERUPTIVE DISEASES, L'I.- C'KUS, PIMPLES, BLOTCHES, TUMORS, SALT liiiKCM, SCALD HEAD, SYPHILIS AND SYPHI-

LITIC AFFECTIONS, MERCURIAL DISEASE, DROPST, NEURALGIA OR TIC DOULOURKAUX, DEBILITY,. DYSPEPSIA AND INDIGESTION,

ERYSIPELAS, ROSE, OR ST. ANTHONY'S FIBS, and indeed the whole class of complaints arising from IMPURITY OF THE BLOOD.

This compound will bo found ft jjreat pro- moter of health, when taken in the spring, to ex- pel the foul humors which fester in the blood at that season of t!.v year. Br the timely expul- sion of them many rankling disorders arc nipped in the bud. Multitudes can, by the aid of tlii. remedy, spare themselves from the endurance of foul eruptions and ulcerous sores, through which the system will strive to rid itself of corruptions, if not assisted to do tins through the natural channels of the liody by an alterative medkino. Cleanso out the viiiaied blood whenever you find its impurities bursting through the skin in pimples, eruptions, or sores; cleanso it when you find it is obstructed and slugglih in tfio veins; cleanso it whenever it U foul, and your feelings will tell you when. Even where no particular drooler is felt, people enjoy bettor Health, and livo longer, for cleansing the blood. Keep tho blood licaithy, and all is well; but with this pabulum of life disordered, there can bo no lasting health. Sooner or later something must go wrong, and tho great machinery of lif'o is disordered or overthrown.

Sarsaparilla has, and deserves much, tho reputation of accomplishing these ends. But the world has been egregiously deceived by preparations of it, partly because the drug alone has not all the virtue that is claimed for if. hut more because many preparations, pretending to be concentrated extracts of it, contain but littlo of the virtue of Sarsaparilla, or any thing eke.

During late years the public have been misled bv largo bottles, pretending to give a quart of Kxtroct of Sarsaparilla for one dollar. Most of these have been frauds upon tho sick, for they not only contain little, if any, Sarsaparilla, but often no curativo properties whatever. Hi .ice, bitter and painful disappointment has followed the use of tbo various extracts of Sarsaparilla which flood tho market, until the numo itself is justly despised, and has becoroo synonymous with imposition and cheat. Still wo call this compound Sarsaparilla, and intend to supply such a remedy as shall rescue tho name from the load of obloquy which rests upon it. And wo think we havo ground for believing it has virtues which ore irresistible by the ordinary run of the diseases it is intended to cure. In order to secure their complete eradication from tbo system, the remedy should be judiciously taken according to directions on the bottle.

INDUSTRY AND AGRICULTURE OF THE COUN-

TRY, IN THE ROYAL UNIVERSITY OF THIS ISL-

AND, AT PRESENT H. M.'S DIRECTOR OF THE

INSTITUTE OF CHEMICAL INVESTIGATION, &C,

Do hcrubv certify, that at the request of the house of Cottig & Will, of this place, I have made an an- alytical examination of U. Wolfe's Aromatic Schie- dam Schnapps, with the object of ascertaining if it contained any substance noxious to health, and to inform them as to Its true composition and relative quality with the other gins that are offered in tho market, aud tbe results of my observations and experiments are as follows:

«»l'dolpho Wolfe's Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps is a spirituous liquid, of a very agreeable aromatic odor, completely transparent and almost colorless, having only a very slight tint of yellowish-gray; Its flavor is strong, and very agreeable to the palate. It marks 20 degrees in Cartier's alcohol weigher, or 62 degrees G hundredths In Gay Lussao's alcohometer. Ily tbe distillation In a balalum maria, with an apparatus consisting of a glass retort and a recipient surrounded with ice, I have collected In this recipient an alcoholic liquid with a very agreeable aroma, completely colorless and transparent, which marked 00 degrees in Cartier's alcoholic weigher, or 70 degrees 5 hundredths on Gay Lussao's alcohometer; end which represented, as a whole, 57 per cent of Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps subject to distillation in the retort. This liquid did not soil the transpar- ency of the distilled water in mixing it with the Kimt', and its agreeable aroma is doubtless due to a very trifling amount of an essential oil inseparable from alcohol.

From tho remainder of the distillation which was left in the retort, I have obtained, through evaporation in a vapor bath, a substance of a yellowish- brown color, clear, and having a bitter taste which Is not disagreeable, and which afterwards becomes aromatic, and leaves tbe mouth perfumed with that fragrance peculiar to the vanilla. I am inclined to believe that to this bitter and aromatic extractive substance, soluble in water and alcohol, the medicinal properties which are attributed to this gin are due. I have not found in Udolpho Wolfe's Aroma- tic Schiedam Schnapps any mineral or organic substance other than the extractive one already named, and the aromatic one obtained by distillation. Finally, Udolpho Wolfe's Aromatic Schie- dam Schnapps consists simply of an aromatic alcohol of 20 degrees of graduation in Cartier's alcoholic weigher, and of an extractive bitter aromatic substance, which, perhaps, is medicinal; and on account of its not containing any matter injurious to the health, as well as for its odor aud good flavor, — a fact which no doubt arises from the choice substances employed In its manufacture, and from the peculiar manner of its distillation,— It should, in my opinion, be preferred to nil the Holland, Delgic, aud German gins which are found in this island which it has been my business to examine. These gins, as 1 have often proved it, exhale a disagreeable odor, and have a more or less disagreeable flavor, some of them having left, as was the case with the superior gin from the distillery of Mr. Henry Dectjen (of Bremen), as resldum, after evaporation by steam, a substance almost insipid, and very trlflingly aromatic, with flavor of vanilla, but in nowise with the delicious bitter and aromatlo flavor of that of Udolpho Wolfe; and others, such as that labelled "Genuine Samaritan," "Extra Superior," Messrs Tracher, have furnished me a very small quantity of a greenish substance, of harsh, metallic taste, and very disagreeable; which extractive organic matter was mixed with a salt of copper, with signs of iron, owing, perhaps, to a bad system of distillation.

I certify that all that is here stated is the truth, and agrees with the experiments I have made with the greatest care; and I authorize the house of Got- tig and Will, of this city, to give publicity to this certificate, In Spanish and in foreign languages, in all countries where it may suit their interest to do so.

A PLEASANT 8UBFBI8A

One evening last month a prominent editor look his friends and household

by surpass in a most novel and charming fashion.

His wife—a most charming woman by the way—had a birthday just in the pleasant season of fruit, arid as birthdays eotne only once a year, and all husbands so favorably matched, like our

cotemporary, notice these rare occur- rences, oar friend of the editorial chair devised a conspiracy against his better half, which was to come off on the eve-

ning of this particular birthday..:.Sit- ting in his editorial sanctum, in the city,

he dispatched various private runner? to three hundred friends, inviting them to join in this present conspiracy against the partner of his bosom. Besides this, various written mandates, in the form of a programme, went forth to servants, confectioners and musicians, all being intended to arrange and consolidate this household treason. When the prelimi-

naries were settled, and the place of rendezvous was named, the gentleman —a gay deceiver as he was—in a legal way remember—obtains an inv ialion for his wife to attend a re-union at the house of a friend, who was herself in the secret, and thus he managed to get the lady in a costume of brocade and Brussels lace, without suspicion. Pie promised to be home early, in order to act as her escort, and urged great punc- tuality in ber toilet.

All this was done so naturally—editors do catch little habits of dissimula- tion in their sanctums—and with such amiable simplicity, that the lady dropped into the snare, innocently as a dove. All the conspirators were prompt and faithful, and what was very extraordinary, where a majority were females, silent also. They gathered at a given hour at the house of a friend, in the

same block with the editor's residence, where they were to await a signal which

was to proclaim when the coast was clear.

A band of music, a whole forest of flowers, and some hundred of people,

thus were gathered and in waiting within ten minutes of the appointed time. Really, the whole thing was so much like a genuine conspiracy—it seemed so like a spicy bit of naughtiness—thut everything contributed to the excite-

ment. The guests laughed low and spoke in whispers, bright eyes sparkled

with mischief, and roguish flashes of wit tlew like arrows about the room.

At last the signal was given. The

lady who was to be surprised utmost into the middle of another birthday, bad been decoyed into her next neighlKir's. The company defiled softly and silently down the whole length of n block, the ladies with their bands full of flowers,

the gentlemen doing duty in profound silence. The front door wus softly opened, and three magnificent rooms were crowded with these silent guests. The musicians were arranged in their , places. Chandeliers and side-lights were prepared for n sudden illuimna-'

tion, and all was ready. The guests standing breathless in the dim light, the musicians, with their instruments prepared, and pyramids of flowers scatter-

ing fragrance from every table in the | beautiful.' suit of rooms, while numerous birthday gifts were arranged in conspicuous posi-

tions. Then there was u light step in the ball, a quiet trying the door, and

the lady of the bouse came in with her shawl and rigolelte on. As her foot touched the threshold, the chandeliers

burst into a blaze, the band struck up an exhilirating welcome, and before she could speak, the lady was overwhelmed with joyous birthday congratulations. It was quite wonderful the way in which she dropped into the spirit of the thing; but once in a while, she would break out in exclamations of wonder,

that her bouse could have been invaded without having excited the slightest suspicion with her. It was enchantment, both to the lady and her guests. Nev- er was dancing more spirited, or conversation more lively. But not content with deluding his own wife, our wicked brother began practicing on the credulity of his guests, too, for about two hours after every one had left a table lavishly furnished with melons and fruit, which they supposed had supplied all the re-

freshment necessary, and had returned to dance again. Another summons came, and to a must sumptuous supper, replete with every conceivable delicacy.

Sometime after the party broke up, all entreating the lady to have a birthday at least twice a year, and let her husband cheat her in the same fashion just as often as he liked. We recommend that, decidedly, if anybody on earth has a right to such birthdays, it is an edi-

tor's wife.

MR. BEECHES OUT OF DOORS. " My master's study is out of doors,

sir," was the reply of Wordsworth's

servant-maid to a visitor who inquired for the great poet's sanctum. It was a happy reply. But a small portion of Wordsworth's art, or inspiration either, could bo gathered within four walls, He was the bard of nature. His lines are redolent of daisies and heather- blossoms; his verses are musical with mountain airs and waterfalls. Happy is the man who can find his study out of doors!

We hnve long thought that Mr. Beeclier owed a vast share of his extraordinary power, both of pen, pulpit and

platform, to his minute familiarity of external nature. Now, we are not going to indite any new criticisms upon the Plymouth pastor, who is decidedly the most be-written arid be-praised character of our day. We said our brief say in regard to him when we once paid him our respects for having figured at a

" Puritan" wine feast at the Astor House.

But to return to Mr. Beeeher and his floral and agricultural illustrations. It was always a (puzzle to us. We never

could account for a minister's familiarity with the whole realm of vegetable life from the cedar of Lebanon to the hyssop on the wall.

But one day he happened to mention to us that he had been an agricultural editor as well as a diligent digger in his

own garden, when he lived in Indiana! For years and years he had studied sub- soil ploughing and tile-druining, and written practical paragraphs on Hovey's seedlings and honeysuckles, on cabbages and curculios. This had been at once an amusement and an education for the

pulpit — an agricultural training for western farmers, and an sesthetical training for his own spiritual husbandry. And now a friend bos sent us a new book fresh from the press, entitled, " Plain and Pleasant Talk about Fruits, Flowers and Farming," by Henry Ward Beeeher—the said book being a reprint of all the witty author's edito-

rials in the aforesaid Indiana newspaper. Of the scientific value of the book we urn not competent to speak ; we cannot say whether his directions are orthodox for keeping insects off (he celery plants, or for keeping " the smaller pigs from being overlaid and smothered" in the pen by the senior swine.

We are not going to recommend that all our clerical brethren should lake to agricultural editing; for we fear that

the farming interests would suffer more than the pulpit would be improved, But we do insist that for personal henlth every minister should lite more out of doors, and for the rich illustrations he

might gather, he should study horticul- ture thoroughly. Did not our blessed Lord found many of his discourses on texts culled from the field, the garden

and the vineyard ? This recalls the first discourse we evet heard from Mr. Beeeher some dozen years ago. He had just come Bast from his gardenings and prairie-preachings in Indiana, lie was rough and ready in diction, and looked like a farmer fresh from the plough. It was a week-night lecture which he gave us, from the words " grow in grace." It was Biblical, spir-

itual, experimental, horticultural, and He introduced his herbari-

um—he took us into his garden—he taught us all about vegetable and floral growths, and thence about heart- growth in holiness. He told us why

Christians became stunted—why they wilted in graces—why the rootless ones withered away. His illustrations were exquisite, and beyond the reach of any but a practical sludent of nature.— Rev. T. L. Cuyler.

in part; but how many are there to whom philosophical pursuits are utterly

inaccessible. Besides this, it might be replied that nothing but religion will infallibly guide the soul from being de- based by vicious indulgences.—Rev. J.

GARIBALDI.

It is singular that almost every war brings to light some military genius. No sooner were the allies encamped l>e- lore Sevastopol than Todleben proved his abilities as an engineer; and the Indian revolt drew forth men who, till that hour, were never suspected of any extraordinary powers. Garibaldi, however, is only continuing the same career for which he has alt his life been famous. For more than twenty years he has been distinguished as a soldier and a sailor. Having thoroughly studied the theory of his profession both in France and Italy, he took service first with the Bey of Tunis, and then in South America. He has commanded both on sea and land. In 1848 returned to Nice, and took part in the Italian campaign. But perhaps the most distinguished part which be has played wus in the defence of Rome. For a whole month lie kept the French army at bay, and indeed, the French Marshal himself did ample justice to the energy and skill of his opponent. When the city was taken, he refused to surrender, but made his way with two hundred of bis followers, and soon returned to America. There lie abandoned for a time his warlike pursuits, and betook himself to commerce.—

About 1852 he assumed the command of the Peruvian army, but when his services were no longer required he

returned to Nice. The story is told that he was at one

time in command of a collier running

between this country and some foreign port; also, again, that he lived in re- tirement with his sons on a small island, where he farmed extensively. In short

he has followed nil pursuits, and seen much of the world. With a thorough knowledge of men, and a passion, tor adventure, ho undertakes enterprises which to most men would seem impossible. In him sagacious prudence and the most daring courage are perfew- ly combined. Ho does till thai Is pCHsi-

ble—he has never yet attempted more than he could perform.

Of course his character has been as- sailed, and his volunteer band stigma-

tized as a volunteer rabble. But those who have known him—and many Eng- lish naval officers have hud the privilege —describe him as an " excellent fellow"

and a chivalrous gentleman. His vig- orous advance, and his perfect success hitherto, conclusively show flint his troops are something more than n mere

rabble. Austrian writers niny represent them as reiter$ lanzneckti, soldiers of the

wallet and the chord, but the truth is that there is no regiment in the service of the allies subject to stricter discipline, or selected with more scrtspukMis

care. Those who* hnve seen Garibaldi, and watched his career, will readily un-

derstand how this must be so. Hand- some, and with an iron frame, his noble

and expressive countenance prove him to be what he is—not a common brigund, but a patriotic leader.

The poorest education that tenches

self-control is better than the best that

neglects it.

TEE PROCESS OF BELIOI0H.

From beginning to end religion is an intellectual process. Whatever raises man above the dominion of the senses, and renders tiim independent of these, as sources of gratification, most have a salutary influence upon the mind. Now, the objects which religion exhibits are such as the mental faculties alone can converse with, and the moment a man begins to feel solicitude about spiritual things, he begins to experience u considerable elevation of character. And then the subjects of divine truth are of the most sublime and lofty kind. They form the Alps in the world of mind The existence and attributes of the great God; the system of Providence, embracing all worlds and all ages; the scheme of redemption planned from eternity for the salvation of millions of rational creatures; the immortality of the soul; the solemnities of judgment;

B RECITER'S DESCRIPTION OF BURNS.

—Henry Ward Beeclier said in his oration on Burns: " No man could form any estimate either of the good or bad that was in him, who did not study his heart, whose tides were deep as oceans and sometimes as tempestuous. He bad a hereditary taint of melancholy, and his temperament bad a dark, de- sponding tone which contrasted wonderfully with the other traits of his

character. According to the later phys- iologists there was in the system a portion of the general mass whose func- tion it was to produce a sensibility. His one nature carried enough for twenty common men of more force of feeling. He never trickled drop by drop, pru- dently ; he gashed. He never ran a slender thread of silver water; he came down booming and bursting like one of his own streams when a shower lias Wen, rushing down the side of the

mountain. All parts of bis nature were subject to this same sudden overflow. He thought as dragoons charge; he felt

love as prairies feel the autumnal fires —wild and broad-breasted—turning the

fleetest deer, and leaving bat an ashy waste behind them."

It is certainly true that there is such a thing as industry in tropics. The labor of the tropics goes on. Notwithstand- ing all we hear and know of the ener- vating influence of the. climate, the white man, if not laborious himself, is the cause that labor is in others. With all its social and political discouragements, with the disadvantage of a duty about twenty-five per cent, on its sugars laid in the United States, and after paying heavier taxes than any people on earth pay at. this moment, and yielding a revenue which nets, after every de- duction and discount, not less than sixteen millions a year—against all these disadvantages, this island is still very productive and very rich. There is, to be sure, litllo variety in its iudustry In the country, it is the raising and making of sugar; and in the towns, it is the selling and exporting of sugar.—

With the addition of a little coffee and copper, more tobacco, and some fresh fruit arid preserves, nnd the commerce which they stimulate, and the mechanic and leading necessities of the towns, we have the sum of its industry and resources. Science, arts, letters, arms, manufactures, and the learning and dis- cussions of politics, of theology, and of the great problems and opinions that move the minds of the thinking world —in these the people of Cuba have no part. These move by them as the great Gulf Stream moves by their shores.

Nor is there, nor has there been in Cuba, in the memory of the young and middle-aged, debate, or vote, or juries, or one of the least and most rudiiueutul processes of self-government. The Af- rican and Chinese do the manual labor; the Cubans hold the land and the capital, and direct the agricultural industry; the commerce is shared-between the Cubans and foreigners of all nations; and the government, civil aud military, is exercised by the citizens of Old Spain. No Cuban votes, or attends a lawful political meeting, or sits on a

jury, or sees a law-making assembly, except as a curiosity abroad, even in a municipality; nor has ho ever helped

to make, or interpret, or administer law, or borne arms, except by special license of government granted: to such as are friends of government. In relig-

ion h« has no choice, except between the Roman Catholic and none. The laws that govern him are made abroad,

and administered by a central power, a foreign Captain-General, through the agency of foreign civil and military officers.

The Cuban has no public career. If he removes to Old Spain, and is known as a supporter of Spanish Royal power, his Creole birth is probably no impedi- ment to Mm. But at home, as a Cu- ban, he may be a planter, a merchant, a physician, bat he cannot expect to be a

civil magistrate, or to hold a commission in the army, or an office in the police; and though he may be a lawyer, and read, sitting, u written argu- ment to the Court of Judges, he cannot expect to be himself a Judge. He may publish a book, but the government must be the responsible author. He

may edit a journal, but thu government must be editor-in-chief.—R. H. Dana,

Jr.

urer of State, was a rough joker, even

in his office. Some twenty years ago a verdant

member of the General Assembly called at the State Treasury and said be wanted " some money."

Whitehall. "Well, I—don't—know," said the

member. " How do you suppose I can pay yon

A JUGGLER DIPLOMATIST.

Every one has seen or heard »|Kiken of, the great Robert Houdin. Besides being the prince of conjurers, he is an

able mathemt t dan and roechni i i in, and his electric clock, made for the Ho- tel du Ville of his native town of Blois, obtained a medal at thu Paris exhibition. It is not generally known that he was sent to Algeria by the French government on a mission connected with the black art—probably the first lime thatu conjurer has been called tip to exercise his profession in government employ. Some details of his expedition hnve just been published. Its object was to

destroy the influence exercised among the Arab tribes by the marabouts an influence often mischievously applied. By a few clumsy tricks nnd impostures. these marabouts pass themselves off ns sorcerers : no one, it was justly thought, was better able to eclipse their-skill and discredit their science than the man of inexhaustible bottles. One of the great pretensions of the marabout was to invulnerability. Al tlie moment that a loaded musket was fired at him, and the trigger was pulled, he pronounced n few cabulistic words, and the weapon did not go off. Houdin detected the trick, and showed that the touch-hole, was plugged. The Arab wizard was furious, and abased his French rival.

'•You may revenge yourself," quietly replied Houdin ; " take a pistol, loud it yourself; here are the bullets, put one in the barrel, but before doing so murk it with your knife."

The A rub did as he was told.

" You are quite certain now," said Houdin, " thut the pistol is loaded ami will go off. Tell me, do you feel no re- morse in killing me thus, notwithstanding I authorize you '("

" You are my enemy," coolly replied the Arab, " I will kill you."

Without replying, Houdin stuck an apple on the point of a knife, and calmly gave the word to flrc. The pistol was discharged, the apple flew away, and there appeared in its place, stuck on the point of the knife, the bullet the marabout had marked.

The spectators remained mute from stupefaction ; the marabout bowed before his superior.

"Allnh is great!" he saldi "I am vanquished."

Instead of the liottle from which, in Europe, Robert Houdin pours an en.l- less stream of every description of wine and liquor, he called for-an empty bowl, which he kept continually fall of boil-

ing coffee, but few of the Arabs would taste it, for they made sure that it came direct from the evil one's own coffee- pot He then told them that it was in his power to deprive them of all strength, and to restore it to them at will; and he produced a small box, so light that a child could lift it with its finger, which suddenly became so heavy that the strongest man present could not raise it,

and the) Arabs, who prize physical strength above everything, looked with terror at the magician, who, they doubt- ed not could annihilate them by the mere exertion of his will. They expressed this belief. Houdin confirmed them in it, and promised' that on. a day appointed he would convert one of them into smoke. The day came; the throng was prodigious; a fanatical marabout had agreed to give himself up to the

sorcerer. They made him stand upon a table, and covered him with a transparent gauze ; then Houdin and another person lifted the table by the two ends,

and the Arab disappeared in a cloud of smoke. The terror of the spectators was indescribable. They rushed out of the place, and ran a long distance, before some of the boldest thought of returning to look after the marabout. They found him near the spot where he had evaporated ; bul he could tell them nothing, and was like a drunken man, ignorant of whut had happened to him. Thenceforward Houdin was venerated, and the marabout despised. The object of the French government was .completely attained. The fashion of testi- monials having, it appears, infected the

Arabs, a number of chiefs presented thu French conjuror with a piece of Arab writing, wonderfully decorated, hyper-

bolical and eulogistic, and to which they were so attentive as to append u French translation.

In 1883 the English Record Com- missioners issued circular questions fo the municipal corporations of England and Wales, requesting various information ; among other questions' was the following; " Do any remarkable customs prevail, or have any remarkable customs prevailed within memory, in relation to the ceremonies accompanying

the choice of corporate officers, annual processions, feasts, ate., not noticed in the histories or accounts of your borough ? Describe them if there be such." To this question the borough of Chip- pcnhuin, Wilts, replied as follows:— " The corporation dine together twice a year, and pay for it themteU/ei."

The Celebration at Lawrence.

The celebration at Lawrence was an en- tiro success. The fact that no arrangements were made for celebrating the day on a large scale at any otlier place in the vicinity, induced the people to pour into the city in large numbers. We learn that at least two thousand persons from abroad arrived on and previous to Saturday evening, for the purpose of being present to participate in the festivities of -the occasion. At an curly hour the bells were rung, Hags were flung to the breeze, salutes were fired, and other demonstrations of joy were exhibited in ushering in the glorious day.

The " Antiques and Horribles" made thoir appearance, and although not very numerous, exhibited some ludicrous burlesques, thus contributing their share to the general merriment, and giving varioty to tho scene.

During the morning and forenoon all the thoroughfares leading to the city were lined with pedestrians and vehicles, while each succeeding train of cars added its hundreds to the gathering throng.

THE MILITAIIY.—There was n grand display of military.' The following companies were present: The Hale Guards of Ilaverhill, Capt. Taggnrt; Laatrvnce Light Infantry of Lawrence, Capt. Bradley; Warren Light Guards of Lawrence, Capt. Durgin ; WHKOU Light Guards of Lowell, Capt. Ladd ; Salem Mechanic Infantry of Salem, Capt. Pierian; Salem Light In- fantry of Salem, Lieut. Brooks; Lawrence Cadets of Lowell, Capt. Sawtell. The companies appeared with full ranks, and were commanded by Col. Edward K. Jones of the Sixth Hegiment, attended by liis.atulf, mounted.

THE FIUEMKN.—The following fire companies were present in uniform :

Essex Engine Company, No. 1, Lawrence. Mcrriinack Engine Company, No. 1, No.

Andover. Torrent Engine Company, No. 1, Nashua,

N.II. Tiger Enuine Comp'y, No. 4, Lawrence. The engines were finely trimmed and

dei orated. The companies appeared wiih full ranks, and received muuh praise during the daj.

TUB PROCESSION.—At 10 o'clock the procession was formed, under the marshal- ship of B. F. Watton, Esq., with a large corps of assistants. It was led oft" by a cavalcade of one hundred, then followed the escort of military, and the City Gov. eminent! of Lawrence and Lowell in carriage!. The firemen were next in order, followed by the Mimiehaha Division of the Sous and Daughters of Temperance—the Daughters dressed in white,bearing wreaths of evergreen and roses. Next came the Methuon Division, followed by the Catholic Friends' Society, in regalia.

There was a large and excellent display of the trades—stove dealers, picture frame makers, soap boilers, furniture makers, itonc masons, card makers, &c, all busily at work.

FLORAL PROCESSION. — This wai the most beautiful sight of all—composed of the female operatives of the mills and the school children in uniform dress, led by tho Man- chester Cornet Band. First came the ladies of the Pacific corporation, with an immense floral car, followed by those of the Atlantic, Washington, Pemberton and Duck Corpor- ations, each with a floral car. There were not less than five hundred ladies in white, bearing flowers in their hands, and preceded by banners. At the head of the Duck Corporation was the schooner " Duck," full rigged, with all sails spread, all hands on board, and streamers flying. The crew were a jolly set. At the mast head was a streamer bearing the motto,

'• We are small in size, but cannot be beat," and "Mullum in l'nrvo." The schooner was hailed with cheers all along the crowded streets.

The twelfth and last division was com- Siscd of scholars of the High and Grammar

ehools, with tableaux of " Brother Jona- than and his flourishing family," (thirty- three States); " The Seasons," Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter, each with her retinue of months; " The Queen of the Water Lilies," with her " Maids of Honor;" " The Young Haymakers;" "The Industry of 177G ;" "Robin Hood and his men."

" The Queen of the Water Lilies' was a beautiful device. A carriago covered by an awning was festooned with lilies. In the carriage was a group of fair children in white, and in the centre of the group, was a representation of a lily just expanding to the* sun, ami its petal—a sweet, golden haired child. It was everywhere hailed with expressions of pleasure and delight. There were nearly a thousand children in the procession—-the girls wearing hats alike made exmessly for the occasion.

The school children sang songs, waved their banners, distributed their flowers, and seemed the happiest of all; and in so seam- ing added to the pleasure of the assembled thousands beholding them.

EXERCISES ON THE COMMON.—After passing the route laid down, the procession proceeded to the Common, where an oration was given by Hon. Henry Wilson.

The exercises ware a Voluntary by the Manchester Cornet Band; Prayer by the Chaplin, Rev. H. II. Hartwell; Beading of the Declaration of Independence, bj Jas. II. Iviton; Hail Columbia, by tho Choir; ((ration ; Music bjr-Lawrence Br 11 iBand ; Bcned'oJ n.

The singing was performed by a large choir of scholars selected from the High and Grammar Schools, under the direction of Newton Filz, Esq.

The oration of Hon. Henry Wilson was an elaborately written address, reviewing the history of the Republic up to the present lime, and setting forth the dangers which threaten it. He noticed at length the re-opening of the slave trade, and called upon all true and patriotic citizens lo accept the resjionsibiiitiei of the hour, and meet the danger manfully.

THE DINNER.—At two o'clock the procession re-formed and proceeded to the City Hall, where an excellent and substantial dinner was prepared by J. H. Stnunaid, of Lawrence. Ten hundred and forty-three plates were laid, but Mr. Stannard "had an abundance for all. Hon. Daniel Saundera, Jr., presided, and John C. Hoadly acted as toast master. Sentiments suitable to the day given and appropriate responses made by Gen. H. K. Oliver, Marshal Watson, Col. Jones and Col. Parsons. The speeches were brief and to the point. The Manchester and Lawrence Bands, and a choir of girls from the High School, added greatly to the interest of the occasion. The singing by the girls elicited rounds of applause.

THE BALLOON ASCENSION.—About a quarter to S o'clock in the afternoon, Mr. Brown, the aeronaut, jumped into the carriage attached to the balloon; the fasten- ings were released, and in preseuce of ad- miring thousands made a splendid ascension. He continued waving his cap in triumph till lost in the distance. The balloon took a southeasterly direction, and at one time attained such a height that an intervening cloud interrupted the view. As it passed over Frye Village, the gas had been let off to such an extent that it descended to a much lower altitude, and at" Indian Ridge" barely escaped, the tops of the trees. It came down on land of W: Phillips Foster, a few rods northeast of." Pomp's Pond." Mr. Brown landed safely, bat the balloon was somewhat injured in the descent by coming-in contact with tho limbs of trees. The distance traversed was about five miles, and the time occupied not far from thirty- five minutes. A great many of our people visited the landing place. Toe aerial voy- agerjj on gathering up the contents of the car enquired for the three coats which were brought in requisition by the colder regions just visited, and some thought him a little bewildered by the sudden changes of the temperature of the atmosphere, through which he pawed. He remarked to the boys that " people must have some sport on the fourth of July, and it might as well be a balloon ascension as anything else."

There was a review of the military at 5 o'clock, by Gen. Oliver.

There were also fireworks in the evening. No accident occurred to mar the pleasures' of the day, which to all appeared one of Unalloyed pleasure. The citizens of Law- rence may congratulate themselves with having had one of the best celebrations ever held in New England.

MILITARY.—Col. Frederick J. Coffin, of Newburyport, has accepted the command of I the Eighth Regiment of Infantry, to which he was re-elected on the 9th ult., and has ; been commissioned. |

Capt. Timothy Munroe, of Lynn, has also been commissioned as Lieutenant Col- (

onel of the Eighth. Capt. Munroe has , commanded the Lynn Light Infantry ever | since its organization in 1852.

TOWN MEETING.—At the town meeting ] on Tuesday, Francis Coggswell, Esq., was chosen Moderator. By-laws were adopted with reference to feeding cuttle upon the highways, which, after the approval of the Superior Court, will become laws, and by vote of the town will be published in the Advertiser.

STOLEN.—A gentleman from Taunton loft his valise at the Lawrence depot for a

a moment or two on Saturday night. On returning it was not to be found. The in- itials " A. E. W." were upon it. Contents, valuable papers and clothing.

HEELING ESTABLISHMENT.—A new establishment has been started at Marblehcad for tho manufacture of heels for boot! and shoes. .'**'

NEW BUILDING MATERIAL.—Mr. D. W. Clark, of Beonington, Vl., has invented a material for facing the common red brick, which gives them the appearance of pol- ished marble or pure porcelain. The brick is dipped in the preparation, and then burnt for six hours, when the preparation becomes attached to the brick, as if it was a part of the original, making ihj brick, it is said, much stronger, and exceedingly beautiful in appearance. The inventor says of bis in- vention, " it is a pure pearl white opaque porcelain enamel, added to which are me- talic oxides, such as zinc, etc." So strong are these bricks that a ten penny nail can be driven full length into a board with one of them, without defacing the enamel. This enamel may be used for door knobs, adding great strength and beauty to those usually manufactured. It may, in fact, be used for a large variety of purposes.

MIDDLETON.—The frame of the hew meeting house at Middleton was raised on Thursday last, and in the evening between two and three hundred persons assemble!, in the building for appropriate religious services. Singing by the choir, reading the Scriptures, prayer and remarks by the pastor of the society, Rev. Mr. Johnson, and an address by Mr. H. J. Richardson of the senior class of Andover Theological Semi- nary, rendered the occasion a very interest- in one. The people of Middleton have done nobly by contributing so liberally to provide a more commodious house of worship for the increasing wants of their community ; and we are pleased to learn that nnion prevails in the society, and prosperity succeeds their praiseworthy efforts to sus- tain the institutions of religion.

BEAN POLES.—We would inform those of our fellow citizens who have the present season sent to Boston (!) for bean poles, that they might have found a small supply on Main street, which were planted there, we suppose, to take the place of the large and beautiful shade trees cut down a few years since, in obedience to the orders of the powers that were. Warranted sound, and thoroughly seasoned.

A target-pole over two hundred feet in height, was erected in Manchester, N. II.. on Saturday last. It is nearly as high as Bun- ker Hill Monument, and is the tallest pole in New England. It cost the city about a thousand dollars, and to every one out sight of the pole will appear to be a tall piece of unprofitable and foolish expenditure.

READING.—Simeon Garland, for many years an engineer on the Boston & Maine Railroad, was run over at Reading on Tues- day evening by a locomotive, by which his left ankle was crushed so that amputation was necessary.

(Uttrttprabrare. * ESSEX, July 4, 1859.

Messrs. Editors:—The glorious " fourih" is just drawing to a close, and for Essex has been well improved. In the morning an im- promptu trial of tire engines Nos. 1 and 2 took place at the North Church, the ball on said church being used for a target. No 1 is an old Hunnenian tub of the year 1824 ; No. 2 is a Leslie tub of 1852. No. 1 threw a seven eighths stream over the ball, and No. 2 threw a five eighths stream the same. The trial not proving satisfactory, a second trial at 6 P. M. came oft'. No. 1 threw fifteen feet higher than in the morning, leaking badly all the time. No. 2 threw three or five feet higher than No. 1., but was in good order. A large crowd of ladies and gentlemen were much pleased with tho performance of both machines.

The Essex North Sabbath School had a picnic in Walnut Grove, and a dinner in the basement of the,, North Church. Rev. Mr. Bacon presided. Addresses were made by the President, Hon. David Choate, Su- S'rintendent, Mr. Jacob Perley of South

anvers, Mr. Rufus Dodge of Wenham, Mr. Snow of Cambridge, Hon. Allen W. Dodge of Hamilton, and several of the teachers of the Sabbath School. Several of the old Indian chiefs who figured in the early history of our country were personated, and made speeches. The different States were represented by the proper number of snow- ily dressed maidens. The Declaration was read finely by 1). Brainard Burnham. The tables were bountifully spread, and neatly decorated with flowers and evergreens. Hail Columbia and other appropriate pieces were sung, and the whole thing was enjoyed by all participants.

In the evening Story's serenade band pa- raded the streets, and a display of fireworks

was made from Meeting house Hill, and the Pos'- iffiee.

A lit'le girl, two years old, daughter of David Kimwltoii, fell into a deep muddy ditch last Saturday, and came near perish- ing. Mrs. Timothy Andrews, Jr., hearing her cries rushed in search of her, found her in the ditch, and saved her life. Mrs. A. is deserving of much credit for her promptness on this occasion, a< a few moments in the ditch would have stopped the cries of the child, already much weakened. O. H. ■ « i» i i————-———

GROVELAND, July 5th, 1859. Messrs. Editors: — Yesterday witnessed

one of the most successful celebrations of the " glorious fourth" that ever occurred in this town. At 10 o'clock a prosession was formed on Ehn Square, nnder the marshal- ship of Elijah Clarke, Esq., consisting of the various district schools, numbering some two hundred scholars; the scholars of Merrimack Academy—one hundred strong —a company of young ladies, &e., accompanied by a cavalcade of thirty horse.', and the Bradford Light Infantry, to the music of the Maiden Brass Band and Continental Band.

The procession marched through the principal streets—which were crowded with people from tho neighboring towns—to thi beautiful grove in " Uncle Billy's Woods.'' In the procession we noticed some who hail passed their " three score and ten," march- ing with a promptness and aptitude which which the younger portion of the community would do well to imitate,—puribrmiun military duty as performed in '• days oi yore." We allude the veteran members ol the Bradford Light Infantry, a military organization of the " old school," long since disbanded. On this occasion they appeared under the command of their first officers, chosen at the organization of the coinpanv in 1823—all of them (the officers) still living. As the procession moved past the residence of Rev. Dr. Perry, the bond playing " Departed Days," we noticed that venerable old gentleman, seated in his arm chair, to whom it was no doubt pleasing to sec tin companions with whom he had'lived and labored, looking as they did thirty years ago.

The exercises at the grove were pleasing- After prayer by Professor Barrows of An- dover, dinner was announced, which wai- very acceptable to the hundreds who were famishing for want of food.

After dinner the Declaration of Indepen- dence was read by Mr. H. G. Rollins, Tie President of the day then introduced Mr. W. B. Stickney as toast master. The dit ferent toasts were responded lo by Dr. J Spofford, Peter Parker, Esq., Elijah Clark. Esq., Chief Marshal, Col. Dan'l B. Stick- ney, Captain of the Bradford Light Infant ry, Edwin B. George, E-q., Mr. II. G. Rol lins, John W. Hudson, Esq., of Cambridge, Dr. Couch and Maj. Moses Tenney o Georgetown, Mr. Boyd of West Newburv. Mr. W. K. Vaill, Mr. Chas. Hudson, Mr Otis B. Merrill, and Jacob Reed, Esq, President of the day.

The singing, under the directiou 6f Mr. L. Hopkinson, was peculiarly meritorious.

The fireworks, under the direction of Maj. Emery, were Very successful; and what rendered the occasion more pleasing, was the stirring music of our Continental Band, and the sweet, inspiring chords, which floated on the air from the lips of " Savory's Harmonics."

The day has gone by^but not without leaving the impress of the many pleasant recollections and associations upon the hearts of all who participated in its glorious festivities. WAVERLY.

Common sense rules the mass of the people, whatever the misnamed and misanthrope philosophers may lay to the contrary. Show them a good thing; let its merits be clearly demonstrated, and they will not hesitate to give it their most cordial patronage. The masses havo already ratified the judgment of a physician, concerning HOSTETTER'S BIT- TERS, as may be Been in the immense quantities of this medicine that are annually sold in every section of the land. It is now recog- nized as greatly superior to all other remedies yet devised for diseases of the digestive organs, such as diarrhoea, dysentery, dyspepsia, and for the various fevers that arise from de- rangement of those portions of the system. Hostetter's name is rapidly becoming a household word, from Maine to Texas, from the shores of the Atlantic to the shores of the Pa- cific. Try the article and be satisfied.

The Best and Lightest Draft machine In use!

GRAND GOLD MBDH AUD DIPLOMA awarded as best Mower and Reaper.

SII.VKR MEDAL as Mower, ami SILVKR MEDAL as Reaper, by the United States Agricultural Sociotv—at the great trial of Mowers and Reapers at Syracuse, N. Y. 1857.

THIS Machine, with the improvement of 1859, is warranted to give entire satisfac-

tion in any kind of grass or grain. Tho one horse machine, which is the lightest and best ever offered to the public, will cut and spread one acre in seventy minutes. The two-horse machine will do the same work in fifty minutes. This machine can he Worked with oxen, as it has a reel to remove the cut grass from the finger-bar; it also starts in the grass without backing, which are very essential points for slow movement.

Holt, a Manny Mower, and applied the ox- power. We rxMtld mow nn acre in an hour, and on our steep hillsides found no trouble in mowing with oxen, where it would be difficult to go witlt horses. We mow about thirty-five acres, and are prepared to say we save at least lumU)Jwe dollars by the experiment All the expense or trouble aside from the first cost of the Mower, was in grinding the knives once, which perhaps occupied an hour's time of two men.

DAIBY OOW8.

A perfect breed of cows for the dairy is now tho great desideratum of our dairymen and farmers generally. The eows of this country, though deservedly holding a high position, arc not by any roi.'fins what they should be. There is still room for great improvement. In the first place what is a perfect breed ? Where can it be obtained ? Or, how shall it be developed? These are important questions, and I de*irc briefly to consider them in the present article. My opinion will be considered new and perhaps visionary, by many of our old and experienced men, and will no doubt clash with their prejudices, for each man has his favorite breed. I have no particular breed to favor. I do not believe it possible for any one pure race of cuttle to constitute the perfect breed. Now, this will be considered a new and startling proposition; and although I cannot yet claim for my views the high sanction of a long series of years of observation and experience, yet, still believing them to he founded on correct principles, I think they can be successfully maintained. The perfect breed of dairy cows docs not, in my opinion, at present exist. Neither the Durham*, | jow uu'd'sadl y," Devon*, Alderneys, nor any other pure race of cattle are perfect as dairy cows. The Ayrshires, though perhaps superior to any of these breeds, are not a pure niec, being the production of n cross of the Durhmns upon the native cows of Scotland. Here then the advantages of crossing are evident, In order to obtain the perfect breed, we must resort to ju- dicious crossing. Our best horses have been produced by crossing the races of different countries. Why not the same succeed when applied to our cattle?

The Durham.-, or short Horn's, are noted for their superior sine, their deep milking, and great beef-ntaking qualities. The Durham cows are deep milk- ers ; they possess size, and size furnishes quantity; but still Ihfljr a re sadly deficient in quality. Before the Durhams l"<-'«y girls make fools of both

The work of refining the English language goes on bravely. The latest advance is, instead of saying, he is " raising the old Harry," to remark that he is " elevating tho ancient Henry."

A jury in Buffalo on Friday awarded Miss Hammdnsmith $1000 as a com- pensation for the failure of a young gentlemnn to keep his promise.

Tell me, thou mighty deep, with waves so blue and clear, is there a " good time coming" soon, when hoops shall disuppeur? some foreign, rock-bound shore—some island far away—where these tremendous street-balloons shall all be stowed away ? The mighty deep was rippled by a squall, and answered

Most people don't think, they only think they think.

The character that needs law to mend it, is hardly worth the tinkering.

That which will ever distinguish man from the rest of creation, is his power of deliberate affection and enduring self- sacrifice.

" Was your child horn during a stprm," inquired our professor, at the dinner-table, tho other day. "No, answered the young mother of a flourishing ' chip of the old block ;' " but I assure you, sir, there was quite ». squall."

Politicians make fools of themselves; pettifoggers make fools of others ; and

can constitute the perfect breed they must be crossed with a race that will improve the quality without diminishing the quantity of tbeiryield. This brings us to the second point of consideration.

What race of cattle, is noted for the superior richness of their milk? Among all tlie various breeds the Aldney stands forth pre-eminent. But the Alderuey is deficient in quantity. She does not constitute the perfect cow. I have seen large sized Durham and native cows that would furnish from five to six gallons of milk per day, and yet they would scarcely jnake that number of pounds of butler per week ; while on the other hand I have a medium sized Alderuey cow that yields four gallons of milk per day, and yet will make ten pounds of butter per week. In order, then, to obtain the perfect dairy cow, we must unite the two races which are the most celebrated for the superior quantity and quality of their milk ; and these are un- questionably the Durham and the Alder- uey. The first and second of our questions, then, are answered.

But how shall we cross them in order to develop this new race ? Shall we introduce a Durham bull among our

.Alderuey cows, or shall we select Dur- » ruim cows and breed from an Alderuey,

tiidl ? Here is the dilemma; and in order to solve it we must fall back upon first principles. The true physiological principle of breeding, as laid down by our best writers, is that the male should be a perfectly developed animal, but relatively smaller than the female.— This, then, determines the question at once. It will never do to introduce n large erossagraincd Durham bull into a herd. Of small and delicately formed AloVrtiey cowsfc We must cross in the opposite direction. But I nm fold that tlinsn large and fine full blooded Dur- h.uh cows nre too expensive—-they-art? beyond the reach of ouf farmers generally. Here is another difficulty, iut fortuuntely not without a remedy* My advice to all my young fellow farmers is briefly this: select all your largest and finest heifer calves and raise them. Then get a full blooded Durham bull selected from the best and deepest milking families of his race. Ifytro do not feel nblo to buy one yourself, induce your neighbor to join you. Tho first cross will give you half bloods. Select again nnd raise your finest speci- mens nnd import another Durham bull from a different family. The second cross will give you three quarter bloods, and by proceeding in this Way, by the third or fourth cross you will have a race of cows equal to the boat thorough- bred Durhams. Then, nnd not until then, select" your full-blooded AldeTney bull—taking due care to select from the families most celebrated for tho superior order of their milking and butter qual- ilientions ; and in a few years you will have the perfect breed, yielding annually its golden harvest. This is what you desire; it is what yon deserve. Cease not, then, in your efforts, until the grand object is accomplished. — American Stock Journal.

Scroftda, or King's Evil, h n constitutional disease, a rormption of t!io blood, by which this lluiil becomes vitiated, weak, and jwor. Iking in tho circulation, it ]>crvades tho wholo body, and may burst out in disease on any part of it. No orpin is free from its attacks, nor is there one which it may not destroy. Tho scrofulous taint is variously ctntrcil by mercurial disease, low living, disordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth, and fililiy habits, the depressing vices, nnd, afmve all, by the venereal infection. Whatever be its origin, it is hereditary in the constitution, descending "from parents to children unto the third and fourth generation;" indeed, it seems to be the rod of Ilim who says, " I will visit the iniquities of the fathom upon their children."

Its effects commence by deposition from the blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in tho lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed tubercles; in the glands, swellings; and on the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul corruption, which genders in the blood, depresses the energies of life, so-that scrofulous constitutions not only suffer from scrofulous complaints, but they have far less power to withstand tbo attacks of other diseases: consequently, vast numbers perish by disorders which, although not scrofulous in their nature are still rendered fatal by this taint in the system. Most of tbo consumption which decimates tho human family has its origin directly hi this scrofulous contamination ; and many destructive diseases of tho liver, kid- neys, brain, and, indeed, of all tho organs, uri.se from or are aggravated by the some cause. -

One quarter of all our people are scrofulous; their persons are invnded bv diis lurking infection, and their health is undermined by it. To cleanse it from tho system wo must renovate the blood by an alterative medicine, and invigorate , it by healthy food and exorcise. Such a medicine wo supply In

AYER'S Compound Extract of Sarsaparilla, the most effectual remedy which the medical skill of our times can devise for this every-where prevailing and fatal malady. It is combined from the most active reincdials that have beca discovered for tho expurgation of this foul disorder from the blood, and the rescue of the system from its destructive consequences. Hence it should bo employed for the cure of not only scrofula, but also those other affections which arise from h, such as ERUPTIVE and SKI.I DIS- EASES, ST. ANTHONY'S FIUE, ROSE, or ERY- SIPELAS, Prari.Es, l'usTVatts, BLOTCHES, ISLAINS and BOILS, TUMORS, TETTER, and SALT RHEUM, SCALD. HEAD, RIHOWOBM, RHEUMATISM, SYPHILITIC and MERCURIAL DISEASES, DROPSY, DYSPEPSIA, DEBILITY, nnd, indeed, ALL COMPLAINTS ARISING PROM VITIATED OR IMPURE BLOOD. The popular belief in " impurity of the blood" is founded in truth, for scrofula is a degeneration of the blood. The particular purpose and virtue of this Snrsa- parilla is to purify and regenerate this vital fluid, without which sound health is impossible in contaminated constitutions. ,

It is now prescribed by more than 5000 physicians in the United States, in cases of Gravel, Gout, Dropsy, Bladder and Kidney Complaints, &c. fee.

Put up In quart and pint bottles, in cases of one dozen quarts, and two dozen pints, with tbe proprietor's name on tbe bottle, cork, and label. For sale by all the respectable Country Merchants and Druggists. Look out for counterfeits and imita- tions, as the whole country Is flooded with them.

' ' ^TO THE PUBLIC I

I bejr leave to call the attention of the American public to the following certificate from the government Chemist for the Jaland of Cuba and the Span- ish West Indies, and who is known to the scientific men of London, Paris, Madrid, Cuba and America, to be the Orst chemist in the world.

UttOLPHO WOLFE. si **— CHEMICAL TESTIMONY.

D. JOBK Luis CASABKOA, CoaitEsrcmniNa Mmr- BKR ov TUB ROYAL ACADEMIES OF MADRID AND MUNICH, A GHADUATE IN SCIENCES or THE FACULTY or PARIS, FO»MIB.LY PROFESSOR or CHEMISTRY, AS APPLIED TO THI ARTS, or TBK ROYAL CONBEUVATORIO or MADRID, AND or PHYSIO AND CHEMISTRY, AS APPLIED TO THE INDUSTRY AND AGRICULTURE or THR COUN- TRY, IN THE ROYAL UNIVERSITY or THXB'IBL- AM>, AT PRESENT H. M.'s DIRECTOR or THE INSTITUTE or CHEMICAL INVESTIGATION, to.,

t>o hereby certify, that at the request of the house of Uottlg & Will, of this place, I hare made an an- alytical examination of U. Wolfe's Aromatic Seliie- dani Schnapps, with the object of ascertaining if it contained any substance noxious to health, and to inform them as to its true composition and relative quality with the other gins that are offered in the market, ahd the results of my observations and experiments are as follows:

«MJd< ilpho Wolfe's Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps is a spirituous liquid, of a very agreeable aromatic odor, completely transparent and almost colorless, having only a very slight tint of yellowish-gray; Its flavor is strong, nnd very agreeable to the palate. It marks 20 degrees In Cartier's alcohol weigher, or 62 degrees 6 bundredths in Gay Lnssao's sjoohometer. 11/ the distillation in a baiaium maria, with an apparatus consisting of a glass retort and a recipient surrounded with ice, I have collected in this recipient flu alcoholic liquid with a very agreeable aroma, completely colorless and transparent, which marked 00 degrees in Cartier's alcoholic weigher, or 70 devices 5 hundredths on Gay Lussao's alcohometor; rud which represented, as a whole, £7 per cent of Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps subject to distillation in tliu retort. This liquid did not soil tbe transpar- ency of the distilled water in mixing It with tbe came, and its agreeable aroma Is doubtless due to a very trifling amount of an essential oil inseparable from alcohol. .

From the remainder of the distillation which was left in tits retort, I have obtained, through evaporation In a vapor bath, a substance- of a yellowish- brown color, clear, and having a bitter taste which is not disagreeable, and which afterwards becomes aromatic, and leaves tin* mouth perfumed with that frngrauoe. peculiar to the vanilla. I am inclined to believe that'to this bitter and aromatic extractive substance, soluble In water and alcohol, the medicinal proj>crties which are attributed to tlds gin are due. 1 have not found in Udolpho Wolfe's Aroma- tic Schiedam Schnapps any mineral or organic BUD- stance other than the' extractive one already named, and the aromatio one obtained by dint Illa- tion. Finally, Udolpho Wolfe'B Aromatic Schie- dam Schnapps consists simply of an aromatic alcohol of 20 degrees of graduation in Cartier's alcoholic weigher, and of an extractive bitter aromatic substance, which, perhaps, Is medicinal; aud on account of its not containing any matter Injurious to the health, as well as for its odor and good flavor, ,«—a fact which no doubt arises from the choice substances employed in its manufacture, and from the peculiar manner of its distillation,— it should, In my opliilou, be preferred to all the Holland, Bejglc, and German gins which are found in this island which it has beeu my business to examine. These gins, as 1 have often proved it, exhale a disagreeable odor, and have a more or less disagjejaable flavor, some of them having left, as was the case with the superior gin from the distillery of Mr. Henry Deetjen (of Bremen), as residum, after evaporation by steam, a substance almost Insipid, and very triflingly aromatic, with flavor of vanilla, but In nowise with the delicious bltflpr and aromatic flavor of that of Udolpho Wolfe; and others, such as that labelled "Genuine Samaritan," "Extra Superior,11 Mwurs Tracher, have furnished me s very small quantIty of a greenish substance, of harsh, metallic taste, and very disagreeable; which extractive organic matter was mixed with a salt of copper, with signs of Iron, owing, perhaps, to a bad system of distillation.

I certify that all that is here stated is the truth, and agrees with the experiments I have mode with the greatest care; and I authorize the house of Got* tig and Will, of this city, to give publicity to this cert ideate, in Spanish and In foreign languages, in all countries where It may suit their interest to do so.

TWENTY-NINTH ANNTVERSAKY OF THE

JUVENILE MISSIONARY SOCIETY

OF WEST ANDOVER.

This Society celebrated its anniversary at the Church in West Parish, Saturday, June 25th.

The day was very favorable, and a goodly number of children assembled to participate in the exercises. They were encouraged by the presence of many of their parents and other friends of the society. The Rev. Mr. Merrill presided, and opened the exercises with an earnest and appropriate prayer. The children then joined in singing " Happy Greeting." The report of the Secretary presented ft brief account of the doings of the Society during the past year. By the report it appears that the Society now numbers forty- three members, with seven honorary members. The largest attendance at any one meeting during the year, was thirty-seven.

After the report a recitation followed by the children on the subject of " Mis- sionary Biography." The recitation consisted of a review of the most prominent features in the lives of some of the leading missionaries. It was characterized by a promptness in answering the questions put, and an evident knowledge of the subject—creditable alike to the children and thvir instructor. One great object of the Society is to excite an interest in the Missionary- cause among the youth of the community. To accomplish this object meetings are held once a month, and lessons are prepared on the persoual character, aims and labors, of one or more missionaries. Thus, by an acquaintance with particular fields of labor, and with the missionaries who occupy those fields, it is thought that a sympathy for the cause maybe excited. Judging from the character of the exercises on this occasion, this expectation has been realized ; and, at the same time, considerable information in regard to missionary operations imparted.

At the close of this exercise, addresses were made by Messrs. Ferguson and Scudder of the Seminary. Mr. Fergu- oo«» ap/.lro of the rpligiowa ooixlitton of Mexico, and contrasted the privileges enjoyed by the children before him, with the entire want of all means for religious culture among the same class in that country. He spoke from personal observation, and his statements were listened to with close attention by an interested audience.

Mr. Scudder, after some remarks on the missions of India, closed with a very happy and effective address on tho duty of aiding missionary work by prayer, benevolence and self-consecration.

A hymn, written for the occasion, was sung, to the tune of " Happy Land," after which, Mr, Holmes, also from the Seminary, made an address.

Mr. Merrill expressed his interest in the welfare of the Society, and his thanks to its officers and others who had labored for it.

Another hymn, written for the occasion, to the tune of " Morning Light," was sung. The company then proceeded to the vestry, where various articles of needle work, prepared by members of the Society at their regular meetings during the year, were exposed for sale. Here the time passed very agreeably for an hour or more in making selections and purchases, and in social enjoyment. The tables were tastefully arranged, and the articles for sale were for the most part well selected, and of real value to the buyers. A number of very beautiful bouquets had been prepared for the occasion, and attracted considerable attention. They also, doubtless, added largely to the receipts. Everybody seemed pleased with the arrangements provided for carrying out the objects of the Society, and disposed to help on the good work.

With chatting, singing and bargain- ing the time passed rapidly; the articles, meanwhile gradually disappearing from the tables, until nearly all were sold. The amount of the receipts was »20.60. The receipts of tbayear, (previous to the anniversary)Wiave" been 838.83. Expenses, 83.93—leaving in the treasury to be devoted to missionary purposes, $88.00. This Is an increase over last year of 83.00.

The managers of the Society have reason to feel that the blessing of a Heavenly Father has been with them in their self-denying labors, and to be encouraged by their visible results. But these results are by no means small; for who can doubt but that from their efforts there has gone forth a silent and imperceptible influence upon the heart and life which will hereafter be seen in the Christian character of those with whom they have met from time to time. We rejoice in the continued prosperity of a Society of such noble aims. We are glad tp know that it has the •ympa-

— tsman- thy of the community, and that its

agement is in such able hands as the late anniversary has shown it .to be. We know that in such a work there are many discouragements to be met and overcome, but we are also assured by the exercises we witnessed that there are here Christian hearts whose zeal cannot fail of success.

A SPECTATOR

fdedions. JfAN A RECENT DWELLER ON THE EARTH.

Science will sooner or later confetti the teachings of the Bible, that man is the last born of God's creations, and has been a dweller on the earth a compara- tively few ages. The cavils of the skeptic at Biblical chronology will be left without any solid foundation. Hugh Miller, one of the most popular and clear-sighted of scientific investigators, in his Popular Geology gives the following :

" With respect to the antiquity of oor race, we have, I have said, no good grounds lo believe that man existed on the earth during what in Britain, and that portion of the continent which lies under the same lines of latitude, were the times of boulder-clay and Drift gravels. None of the human remains yet found seem more ancient than the historic period, at least in the older nations; it is now held that the famous skeletons of Guadaloupe belonged to men and women, who must have lived since the discovery of America by Co- lumbus ; and if in other parts of the world there have been detected fragments of the human frame associated with those of the long extinct animals, there is always reason to conclude that they owe their proximity to that bury- ing propensity to which I have already adverted, or to accidents resulting from it, and not to any imaginary circumstance of contemporarily of existence. If man buries his dead in the Gault of the London Clay, human remains will of course be found mingled with those of the Gault or the London 'Clay; but tho evidence shown of any such mixture will merely serve to show, not that the existences to which the remains belonged bad lived in the same age, but •imply that thnjr had been deposited in the same formation. Nor can I attach much value to the supposed historic records of countries such as Egypt, in which dynasties are represented as having flourished thousands of years before the era of Abraham, The. chronicles of all nations have their fabulous introductory portions. No one now attaches any value to the record of the eighty kings that are said to have reigned in Scotland between the times of Fergus the First and Constantino the bold ; or to that portion of old English history which treats of the dynasty of Brutus the Parricide or his wars with the giants. All the ancient histories have, as Buchanan tells us, in disposing of the English claims, their beginnings ob- scured by fable; and is it probable that the Egyption history is an exception to all the others, or that its laboriously inscribed and painfully interpreted hier- oglyphics are more exclusively devoted to the recording of real events than characters simpler of form and easier of perusal ? If, as some contend, man has been a denizen of this world some ten or twelve thousand years, what, I would ask, was he doing the first five Or six thousand? It was held by Sir Isaac Newton, that the species must have been of recent introduction on earth, seeing that all the great human discoveries and inventions, such as letters, the principles of geometry and arithmetic, printing, and the mariner's compass, lie within the historic period. The mind of man could not, he inferred, have been very long at work, or, from its very constitution, it would have discovered and invented earlier; and all history and all archaeological research bear out the inference of the philoso- pher. The older civilized nations lie all around the original centre of the race in Western Asia; nor do we find arty trace of a great city older than Nineveh, or of a great kingdom that preceded in its rise that of Egypt. The average life of great nations does not exceed twelve, or at most fifteen, hundred years; and the first great nations were, we find, living within the memory of letters. Geology, scarcely less certainly than Revelation itself, tes- tifies that tho last born of creation was man, and that his appearance on earth is one of the most recent events of which it submits the memorials to its votaries."

No man is more miserable than he who hath no adversity; that man is not tried whether he be good or bad; and God never crowns those virtues which are only faculties at\4 dispositions; but every act of virtue is an ingredient into reward—God so dresses us for heaven. —Taylor.

THE LAND OF DREAMS

The Land of Dreams — strange things, strange deeds, strange thoughts, form the portal to that land. Vague fantasies jostle with solemn realities at the gate. Huge, unweily giants travel in and out, and fays trip lightly through the open door of sleep. All goes on smoothly, too, in sleep ; the most incon- gruous materials fail in their places without exciting the least surprise to the dreamer. We see the stern matter- of-fact men of the out-door world go by hand in hand with elfin guides, and friends greet shadowy frieuds known in life in that misty land. We wander past castles and towers of olden time standing in close proximity to dwellings of modern cities. Knights all armed in mail, with plume and vizor pass us as they stride over pavements and through the gas-lighted streets. The past is mingled with the present, and the future comes close at hand. 'Tis a queer land, this dreamland. Now We see the ships of Tarshish lying at the dock dis- charging their freights of precious woods for building Solomon's Temple in Broadway—there the cunning artifi- cers go past Wall and Pearl streets— there on that patent spring cart go two of the brazen lions that are to be sup- ports of the sea of brass—and there comes the wise man himself in pomp of Eastern splendor. A newsboy asks him, " Have a Herald, sir?" Solomon shakes his head.

Now, far away, we hear the noise of the workmen on the Ark—and Noah's son whom we meet on the Bowery cars asks the news from Mexico in the same breath that be tells us that Ctesar has crossed the Rubicon. The matrons of Rome pass us in the early morning on the way to market to buy vegetables, and it seems not strange when over the market house we read the names of Washington or Jefferson. In the evening we attend a Turkish mosque in Union Place to see Samson as the great American giant sing in a grand opera of Donizetti, in which Queen Victoria appears rescuing Moses from the Hudson. Then the thought of election day conies in. We see Goliah about to vote the Whig ticket, and Methuseleh get quite irrate when a young lawyer about town challenges his vote at a ward election. And there m hear Demosthenes ha- ranguing about Sailor's Rights and Free Trade in Mechanics Hull. We listen with pleasure till the meeting is out, then get into a stage that runs on two wheels, just like a Roman war chariot, and the scythes on the wheels mow the grass in the streets* as they move along; while right behind comes a real down east farther raking it up to make a funeral pyre for his wife who died on her passage from India. Now the scene changes Imperceptibly — changes to the battle of Lexington—a troop of British soldiers rush by with confusion and dust, the deep bay of the dogs of war mingles with the rattle of stones from the Roman catapult—and there a red-coat falls transfixed by a Moorish javelin. This event throws our thoughts into a different channel. We take a by-path and immediately find ourselves wandering in the sunny gardens of Grenada; our senses are delighted as we breath the rich air laden with perfumes from the orange groves, or listen to the tinkling fall of water from the marble fountains in the halls of the Alhambra. We tread the mossy walks and thread the rose embowered copices, when we seem to meet some old acquaintance — some schoolmate — and suddenly we seem walking in the old schoolground — we go up to the old room, dark and chill, where we played our pranks—-there is the sume high-up window looking out on the same roof and sky—there are the cots on which we slept |—all these changes of scene and place glide smoothly in the course of our dreaming thoughts.

Now other forms come in—friends and strangers—it flashes upon us flint it is the great examination day. Again we feel the flutter of our youthful hearts —we prepare with ardor—mount the stage, and lo the multitude of eager faces assembled to witness our execu- tion. There rises the lofty gibbet—the hangman's breath chills our cheek as he whispers to bid us to prepare to die —then comes the struggle of thought, the agony of mind, the pleading of in- nocence, the calm resignation of hope in the throes of despair. Then the feel of the harsh halter about the neck—the one last look at the day—the earth and the glorious sky ere the horrible cap is drawn on—the sound of the moving keys of the platform raises terror to the highest pitch—the shock awakes us to actual life with palpitating heart and cold clammy sweat oozing from every pore.

A MAN ARRESTED FOR MURDER COMMITTED TWENTY-FOUR YEARS AOO. —It seems that a little over twenty- four years ago, a man named C. B. Ivey, residing in Itoane County, East

PRICE TWO CENTS. 3SC

Tennessee, conceived a dislike to a sister in-law, residing in that county, and murdered her in a deliberate and cold- blooded manner. He was arrested for the crime, tried, convicted, but owing to some palliating circumstance connected with the alfair, instead of being executed was sentenced to the penitentiary for life. Shortly after his incarceration in jail, however, he effected his escape, and made his way to Arkansas, where he settled on the Arkansas river, and resi- ded up to within a few weeks past. During his residence in Arkansas—-a period of some twenty-two years—he married a highly respectable lady of that State, became the father of a family, the owner of a large plantation, and was honored by his fellow-citizens with the post of magistrate for a term of ten years, and the duties of which position he discharged with fidelity and to the general acceptance of the citizens.

Ho also became connected with and for many years was a leading member of one of the prominent Christian de- nominations of the day. But the appearance at his home, about two weeks since, of an officer, armed with a requisition from the Governor of I he State whose laws be had outraged, at once dissipated all his assurances of safety, and without resistance he yielded himself up to the officer s custody. Ho arrived in this city last evening, in charge of the person who traced1 him out, and will .be conveyed at once to Roane county, taking to-day's train on the Memphis and Charleston Railroad.'— Memphis Bulletin.

NAPOLEON'S PERSONAL PECULIARITIES.

JHackwoocTs Magazine for June has some remarks qn the .personal charac- teristics of Napoleon III.:

He has gained friends as well as enemies by one most 'extraordinary faculty that he possesses—that of holding his tongue, and of doing so in the company of the most loquacious people in the world. A perfectly undemonstrative man, some Frenchmen respect him for it, while others fear hint, others hate him because be will not take them into his counsel; and many Englishmen, again, like him because he flatters the national vanity by being in many rt- specrs very like an Englishman. He is cold and reserved in his public demean- or ; more cordial, say his friends, when seen in private. Certainly he does not "wear his heart upon his sleeve for daws to peck at." He listens to alt that is said to him, and then takes his own course. He consults everybody, and follows his own advice.

Again, he has a good seat on horse- back. Other Englishmen dislike him because they ride badly themselves, or because not being able to keep their own counsel, they hate a close character. Some cause, or eauses of no greater weight, are perhaps more nearly the true causes of his unpopularity in Eng- land than any common place notions of his belnglhe destroyer of the liberties of -France. He had equally destroyed the liberties of France when be made his triumphal entry in London. The English press, or at least its leading organs, has undergone many phases of opinion concerning him; and he com- plained in his letter to Sir Francis Head of this conduct of the English press, by that very complaint showing that he had some regard to the public opinion in England. If we venture ourselves to express an opinion regarding his character, we put it forth in all modesty, and wish it to be understood in as vague and general a sense as possible. Feeling ourselves incompetent to take the measure of a man. It is our impression that he is a man whose general talent has been rather overrated than otherwise. He has doubtless a great power of will, an undaunted courage, both physical and moral, and by that inesti mable faculty of holding his tongue be is able to bide his time, observe circumstances, and thus make the most of them, and to bring to bear on them, at the right lime all the faculties he possesses.

Perhaps his policy appears to be mysterious, simply because he has no policy at all, but is ready to abandon one course and adopt another, according as he stumbles against a barrier or drifts Into an opening. Doubtless it is often the-cause of success in life. Some men of unconquerable strength of will and great talent get on, as it is called, by bending the world to their plans. Oth- ers do so by forming no plans at all in permanence, but fashioning and re-fashioning those they do form in the mould of circumstance. Louis Napoleon is said to be a fatalist, and bis. extraordinary elevation would tend to confirm him in his fatalism. Before be takes any step he seems to hold up bis hand to see which way the, wind is blowing, and whether the air comes against it hot or cold. But that holding of the long is in our opinion Ins most admirable quality.

BTBAM ON COMMOH HOADS.

The practicability of running steam carriages on common roads, has been completely demonstrated by the running of a self-propelling steam fire-engine from Bristol to Philadelphia, a distance of twenty miles oyer the ordinary highway. This was done on the 2d instant, by a machine built by Messrs. Lee & Larnod, of Jersey City, N. J., for the Souihwark Hose Co. of Philadelphia. The party who started with the. engine numbered fourteen, but as nino was considered a sufficient number for the engine to carry on tho occasion (though if necessary it can accommodate fifteen) a coach was provided for the remaining persons, who, however, took turns in riding on the machine. It had been the intention to keep the carriage ahead, and when the engine started the carriage was nearly a mile in advance: but it was soon apparent that it could not be done. The engine in a very few minutes overtook and passed it, running three miles in exactly ten minutes. The read was smooth, with a hard bed and light grades, covered all the way, however, with more or less of loose material, with occasional stretches of pretty deep sand. The next test of the powers of the machine was in ascending a long hill with a particularly sharp pitch about one third of the way up, with an inclination of at least one foot in ten. The steep ascent was surmounted with unfaltering tread, at a rapid speed. The next mile was made in five minutes, the next following, which included (he ascent of another long hill, in six. The remaining portion of tho 'way it was found perfectly easy lo maintain on fair grades a motion of twelve miles per hour, while a speed one fourth or one half greater could be attained if there was occasion for it, and the steep- est and longest hills could be ascended at the rate of ten miles per hour.

The machine was held in most perfect control. It could bo run faster or slower, brought at a word to a dead stand, or run backwards at the will of the engineer, by » simple movement of the reverse lever; and the control of the steersman over its direction by means of its steering apparatus, was equally prompt und perfect. Another point was the ease and gracefulness of its motions, its strong but sensitive springs carrying it like a pleasure carriage. ...

The machine was subsequently tried In the streets of Philadelphia, and with equally satisfactory results. It was found that the engine would turn a corner as handily as could be desired, and run up hill .and down as well as upon level ground. The machine weighs nine thousand pounds, consumes its own smoke and gas, and makes no more noise when in motion than an ordinary dray.— Bottom Journal.

A GOOD Tmjro IN THE STORY LINE, —Some years ago a Cincinnati paper received and printed the first chapter of of what appeared to be a most thrilling romance, in the expectation of being furnished with the concluding portions as might be needed. The chapter wits very ingeniously written, and concluded by leaving the principal character suspended by the pantaloons over a per- pendicular precipice. It attracted the attention of the press, and inquiries began to be made concerning the continuation of the the fate of its hero. Day after day the victimized publishers looked for the remaining chapters, but in vain. They never came to hand- Finding that they had been sold, and wishing to put a stop to the jokes their cotemporaries were writing at their expense, they briefly concluded the story thus;

CHAPTER II.

After hanging to the treacherous tree four weeks, his pantaloons gave way, and Charles Melville rolled headlong over the yawning precipice.

He fell a distance of five miles, and came down with the small of his back across a stake and rider fence, which so jarred him that he was compelled to travel into Italy for his health. He is engaged in the butchering business and is the rather of a large family of children,

RESIGNATION.— We understand that Mr. William G. Goldsmith has tendered his resignation as Principal of the Funchard Free School, to take effect at the close of the present term.

Miss. S. L. Bailey, for several years connected with the same institution as teacher, irill, at her own request, have a respite of one term or more.

Mr. Goldsmith and Miss Bailey are thorough scholars, and have labored most assid- uously to raise the school to a high standard of excellence. Their withdrawal will be greatly regretted.

Before the fall term commences, we shall have something to say about qualifications for admission, and furnish some reasons why the number of scholars should be largely increased. 1 iias I .

A THIEF CAUGHT.—Charles Belmont was arraigned before the Police Court at Lawrence on Tuesday last, charged with stealing a pair of oxen belonging to Jesse E. George of Plaistow, N. H. He was committed to take his trial at the Superior Court, October term, to bj holden at New- buryport. Belmont is the fellow who ottered the stolen oxen for sale in this town a fortnight ago, and was chased into the woods. He lirts already spent a term of five years in the. State Prison for stealing in Groveland.

NEW SUPERIOR COURT RULES.—The Judges of the Superior Court have shown a commendable determination to despatch business, by the two following rules which tbey have already adopted, viz:—1. That counsel shall only speak one half hour, except on leave for cause. 2. That witnesses shall be examined by one counsel on each side, who »hM stand during examination, as is the rule in New England and New York.

CAUTION.—Complaints have been made that young men bathe near the thoroughfares of the town, and in sight of the resi- dences of several of our citizens. The laws of this commonwealth expressly forbid all such exposures of the person, and provide a penalty for their violation. It is hoped due propriety will be observed by all

in this matter; but if indecencies are in- dulged in, and any persons exhibit an utter disregard of self-respect, or of the feelings of the annoyed, let a few examples be made by the application of the law.

LOWELL ISLAND.—This popular summer resort is now open with the best of accom- modations for transient boarders, and we are glad to learn that Col. Pollard, the popular landlord, has made such improvements in the establishment as to make it even more pleasant and attractive than last year. Pas- sengers can leave Andover by the 7 1-2 A. M. train, and return at 7 1-4 P. M. Fare by cars and boat both ways, $1.05.

STRUCK BY LIOHTNINO.—On Friday evening of last weok, the lightning struck an ash treo on the premises of Solomon II. Higgius, near his residence. The trunk of the tree was shattered in a most singular manner, and the bark was completely peeled oil' for several feet from the ground.

DEATH OP HOW. RUFUS CHOATB.— Hardly had the public mind been quieted by favorable reports, concerning the health of the Hon. Rufus Choate, when a telegraph- ic despatch from his son brought the startling intelligence of his death, which occurred at Halifax, Nova Scotia, on Wed- nesday moming last The despatch was received in Boston on Thursday morning, by Edward E Pratt, Esq., son-in-law of Mr. Cboate, and reads as follows:

HALIFAX, July 13, 1859. E. EI.I.ERY PRATT :—All is over. Last

evening, about 6 o'clock, aAer an apparently cheerful day, Father was seized with a heart attack, and breathed his last at a quarter of two o'clock, this (Wednesday) morning. He was insensible through the whole, and suffered none at all.

RUFUS CHOATE, JR.

His death is attributed to disease' of the heart; though his over-exertion in the pros- ecution of his professional duties was no doubt the immediate cause. He was in his sixtieth year.

The Superior Court, on receiving the sad announcement, suspended proceedings, and after brief addresses by District Attorney Brewster, Judge Brigbam and others, adjourned until Monday. The Suffolk Bar hold a meeting to-day to take action in reference to his death.

His remains will not reach Boston until next week. 1 mm I . 1

WELCOME HOME.—On Thursday evening several hundred persons assembled at the residence of Mr. John Smith, in Frye Village, to welcome home from Europe his son, Mr. Joseph W. Smith. The piazza extending in front and on the side of the house, and the splendid trees in the yard, were brilliantly illuminated with beautifully variegated Chinese lanterns, while the oft ascending rockets, the bengal lights, mines, wheels, Roman candles, serpents and other magnificent fireworks exhibited) excited the admiration of all beholders. The Andover Brass Band was present, and regaled the company with their choicest music.

At about 10 o'clock Dea. Peter Smith, in behalf of the crowd, very appropriately congratulated his nephew on his safe return home, after a long absence in the " old world." Mr. Smith responded in his usual bland and genial manner, expressing thanks to his friends for such a gratifying demon- stration, and to tbo Band for their excellent music on the occasion. Three rousing cheers were then given to the Band, three more to Mr. Joseph W. Smith, and three more to Mr. John Smith.

The hospitalities of the host were extended to a large number of friends, filling several ample rooms of his mansion; mutual congratulations were exchanged ; and at a late hour the guest* rlisperapd, rejow-ing 1

in the happy re-union. i ■ i ,

ABBOTT FEMALE ACADEMY.—The an-! nual examination of this popular institution occurred on Wednesday. The exercises . commenced with prayer by Rev. Mr. Edgell t of this town. Classes in Butler's Analogy j and English literature were reviewed, a ! French dialogue spoken, and Calisthenics | performed. An address was delivered by i Rev. Mr. Barrows of Reading. His theme I was " Youth a Prophesy;" several illustra-1 lions were given where trivial events have ' changed tho whole course of persons' lives, ; such as Webster and Byron. Five young ,

ladies graduated, and were presented with . diplomas by Rev. Prof. Park, President of , the Academy. The valedictory compost- . tion by Miss Craig of Auburn, was a most ' excellent production. The concluding prayer was by Rev. Dr. Blanchard of Low- j ell. About 80 pupils have been connected with the school the year past; and thorough- ; ness of instruction and refined culture have I characterized the institution since Miss ' Taylor has been the Principal. Her re- ' tirement from the position is very much regretted by the community.

GREAT SALE.—On.Thursday next, 21 Bt inst., the Lawrence Machine Shop, the largest in New England, will be sold at auction. The main building is 405 by C5 feet, four stories high, with four other very large buildings. At the same time fifty brick dwelling houses, the agent's house, a large boarding house, and other property, will go to the highest bidder.

ACCIDENTS, &C, ON THE FOURTH.—We copy the following from the Lawrence Courier:

J. Pierson's son, eleven years old, was run over by a team, and somewhat hurt.

Patrick McCarty was shot in the left hand by a pistol, which broke his fingers, and otherwise disabled his hand.

A man from Salem was taken in a fit and carried to Dr. Sargeant's office, where he received care and attention, and after an hour or two, was able to go bis way.

A boy while riding in a Wagon was thrown out and slightly hurt.

Thomas Burke of this city was stabbed by Jeremiah Leahry of Lowell. The circumstances, as near as we can learn, are these : Leahry undertook to pass a counterfeit bank bill in payment for refreshments in a drinking place on Common street. Burke re- buked him for attempting to pass the bill, at the time, which excited Leahry's temper, hut did not prevent his trying to dispose of it, at a place on White street. Burke says he told him he ought to be arrested for coming: down from Lowell to IKISS bad money ; upon which Leahry attacked him, and in the course of the fight drew a knife and stabbed him, inflicting a severe wound in the abdomen, and then ran. He was taken to jail, where he is awaiting the result of the injury. Burke lingered fill Thursday, when be expired. 1 m ,

GROVELAND.—At the recent 4th of July celebration in this town, the following sentiment was read, and responded to by a prominent merchant:

To the merchant—wiio sells Lamps, rat traps, and bells, Stopples, bottles and ink, Flannels, mugs, Schnapps lo drink,— Buttons, ribbons and papers, Door latches and scrapers, Tubs, noggins, and pails, Apples, pears, posts anil rails, Plaster, peas, pork, and rags, Knives and forks, carpet bags,— All that mortal can think of, To eat of or drink of.

We'll now hoir the very host speech he can think of.

THE GREAT BALLOON VOYAOE.—On Friday evening, July 1st, Messrs. Wise, La Mountain and Gayer made a balloon ascension from St. Louis, bound for the Atlantic coast. On Saturday afternoon the balloon landed in Adams, Jefferson county, N. Y. having travelled eleven hundred and fifteen miles in nineteen hours! Mr. La Mountain announces that as soonsas his balloon is repaired, he shall make a voyage from Chi- cago to the east. Mr. Wise announces his wish to make a voyage from San Francisco to New York, but can not do this unless as- sistance in defraying expenses is extended to him.

The New England Farmer announces a change in its proprietorship. Mr. Russell P. Eaton, formerly of tho Maine ^Farmer, has purchased a third of the establishment, and will act as assistant editor. Mr. Albert G. Tulman has also purchased a third part, and will continue to manage its financial matters. Mr. Noursc, formerly sole proprietor, still retains a third. The Fdrmer ranks among the first agricultural papers in the country, and has a wide circulation. We trust the new arrangement may prove a good one, both to proprietors and readers.

Judge Berry of Hebron was President of the day. The Declaration was read by H. W. Blair, Esq., of Plymouth, and an oration delivered by Hon. N. B. Bryant of Concord.

The view from the summit of Mount Prospect is a delightful one—said to rival that from Red Hill at Centre Harbor. To the south various sheets of water are seen, among which is Lake Winnipissiogce, dotted with numerous islands, Sqttain Lake, &c. To the north Franconia range of mountains loom up before us, and its famous Notch is s;en; also Mount Washington, and other teaks of the White Mountains, are discern-

ible. It is estimated upwards of one thousand persons were present at the celebration, and all were highly pleased.

But fearing I have already taken up more room than is proper, and in order that you may do justice to other correspondents, I will close. More anon. MURRAY.

GEORGETOWN.—The Fourth wasnoiieed here by the customary display of Fantas- ies and Horribles, for which Georgetown has become somewhat famous. The procession was led by Gen. George W. Boyn- ton, in full regimentals, bearing in bis hand a sword twelve feet in length, mounted on a superb decorated charger. Among the features was. the locomotive " Demijohn," drawn by one horse, on which rode the brakeman, and propelled by several men concealed in tho boiler. The connecting rod of the locomotive's wheels communicated with two figures seated upon the rear of the machine, which would work back and forth, with each revolution. On tliu piston rods were two masked figuros, which would pop up and down through the piston. A tallow candle, which was burning in the reflector, put the sun to blush by the in- tensity of its rays. Next to this came Flo- ra Temple, in a trotting gig of huge dimensions, drawn by H. Woodruff; this was represented by a horse some twenty-five feet in length, which was carried by two men, whose heads and shoulders were concealed in the body of the horse, nothing but their continuation being visible, and these being of the same color of the animal represented, terminating with well formed hoofs. These two pieces were the most ludicrous in the procession.—Salem Reg.

PLYMOUTH, N, H., July 12,1859. Messrs. Editors:—You may have thought

by my silence for the past few weeks that your Haverhill correspondent has become an institution of the past rather than of the present; but he " still lives," although in another locality.

In this age of steam and " iron horses," the transition f'r*m one place to another is easily performed, thanks to the inventive genius of man ; and taking advantage of this fact, I have alighted in the suburbs of this quiet village. Plymouth is pleasantly situated in the Pemigewasset valley; on all sides rise high hills and mountains mostly covered with forests, with here and there a clearing in which can be seen neat farm bouses, and occasionally > cluster of them, giving a very beautiful and picturesque appearance to the eye of the beholder. The Boston, Concord & Montreal Railroad passes through the place, over which a large portion of the visitors to the White Mountains' pass, and here stop to dine. The Pemigewasset House, kept by D. R. Burn- bam, is directly over the station house, and easy of access from the cars. It has recently been enlarged and improved, and now presents a very fine appearance.

The citizens of this and adjoining towns celebrated the Fourth, by a picnic on Mount Prwfbect, in llolderness—distant from Plyaawglli about fou r miles—to the top of which *HMriage road has been constructed.

TESTIMONIAL TO AN OLD CITUEN.— Our former fellow citizen, Capt. Bigelow, now a resident of North Andover, has recently accepted an engagement as engineer on the government tort-, about to be erected at New Bedford, to which place he will soon remove. In view of this a delegation numbering above two hundred of his numerous friends in this place, planned for him an agreeable surprise during his absence on Tuesday. Returning in the evening, Capt. B. found his house and grounds occupied, and himself made the recipient of a splendid Waltham Watch, and other articles of value, which were tendered in a neat speech by Dr. G. W. Garland. Capt. It. was scarcely able to find words of response, so sudden and unexpected was the pleasant visit, but warmly and heartily profit! red his grateful thanks. The friends had, also, that nothing might be lacking, engaged the services of Stannard, and an evening of the highest enjoyment was passed—the affair terminating pleasantly and well. Capt. Bigelow has through a long residence, proved one of the best citizens of Lawrence, and we are sorry to lose him, though only temporarily, we trust, from this neighborhood.-*- Lawrence American.

AGRICULTURAL ADDRESS.—Mr. Whit- tier having declined the invitation of the Essex Agricultural Society to address them at their next Anniversary and Cattle Show, the committee to select a substitute have made choice of J. J. II. Gregory of Marble- head, arid ho has accepted the appointment. Mr. Gregory is favorably known to the So- ciety by bis excellent reports, published in the Transactions, on Vegetables and Poul- try. Besides being a good writer, he possesses the practical knowledge of a cultivator of the soil, being personally engaged in that business, and living in the midst of the best cultivators in the county-—Salem Reg.

BRADFORD.—The annual exhibition at the Female Seminary, at which are some eighty pupils, took place on Wednesday. It was a great day for the Institution. The hall, decorated with flowers, was densely crowded, and several distinguished .strangers were on the stage with the trustees, while the students were all dressed in white. The compositions and recitations were very favorably received, and at the close of the exercises, Rev. Elias Nasou of Medford delivered an excellent oration on " The Lady." Seven young ladies graduated'and received their diplomas from the hands of Mr. Greenleaf, the veteran teacher, viz., Isabella L. Ames, Chelsea; Mary E. Burn- ham, Haverhill; Mary P. Fiske, Amherst, N. H.; Harriet Campbell, Bradford; Carrie A. Howe, Methuen ; Althea L Huse, Read- ing; Cornelia M. Lawrence, Amherst, N. H.—Newburyport Herald.

At a dancing party near Waterville, Cat., the women left their babies in "the other room" with their bonnets. Some roguish young fellows made a general shift of the the babies' dresses, and mixed up the in- fants, and when the party broke up in a hurry at a late hour, nearly every woman went home with somebody else's baby. As they lived scattered over a region of some miles in extent, there was a great deal of hurrying to and fro the next morning, and it took two days to get the babies fairly unmixed.

Andover, July 16, 1859.

Common sense rules the mass of the people, whatever the misnamed and misanthrope philosophers may say to the contrary. Show them a good thing; let its merits be clearly demonstrated, and they will not hesitate to give it their most cordial patronage. The masses have already ratified the judgment of a physician, concerning HOSTE TTIiR'8 BIT- TERS, as may be seen in the immense quantities of this medicine that are annually sold in every section of tho land. It is now recog- nised as greatly superior to all other remedies yet devised for diseases of the digestive organs, such as diarrhoea, dysentery, dyspepsia, and for the various fevers that arise from de- rangement of those portions of the system. Hostetter's name is rapidly becoming a household word, from Maine to Texas, from the shores of the Atlantic to the shores of the l'a- cilic Try the article and be satisfied. Sold by all druggists in the world.

WORMS ! WORMS !—A great many learned treatises have been written, explaining the origin of, and classifying the worms generated innho human system. Scarcely any topic pf medical science has elicited more acute observation and profound research, and yet physicians are much divided in opinion on tho subject. It must be admitted, however, that, after all, a mode of expelling these, worms, and purifying the body of their presence, is 0f more value than the wisest disquisitions a» to their Origin. The expelling agent has IU length been found — Dr. M'Lanc's VBBMI- vnan, prepared by Fleming Bros., is the much sought after specific, and has already superseded all other worm medicines, its effi- cacy being universally acknowledged by medical practitioners.

0^- Purchasers will be .careful .to .ask for DR. M'LANK'S CKI.EBKATHD VKHMIFUOI:,

.manufactured by Fleming Bros, of Pittsburgh, Pa. All other Vermifuges in comparison are worthless. Dr. M'Lane's genuine Vermifuge, also his Liver 1'ills, can now he had at all respectable drug stores. None genuine without the signature of FLEMING BROS.

GRAND GOLD MEDAL AHD DIPLOMA awarded as best Mower and Reaper.

SILVER MEDAL as Mower, and SILVER MEDAL as Reaper, "by the United States Agricultural .Society—at the great trial of Mowers and Reapers at Syracuse, N. Y., in 18*7.

THIS Machine, with the improvement of 1859, is warranted to give entire satisfac-

tion in any kind of grass or grain. The one horse machine, which is the lightest and best ever offered to the public, will cnt and spread one acre in seventy minutes. The two-horse machine will do the same work in fifty minutes. This machine can he worked with oxen, as it has a reel to remove the cut grass from

.the finger-bar; it also starts in the grass without backing, which are very essential points for slow movement.

TESTIMONIAL. We purchased I ast year, of the agent, C. C.

Holt, a Manny Mower, and applied the ox- power. We could mow an acre in an hour, and on our steep hill-sides found no trouble in mowing with oxen, where it would be difficult to go with horses. We mow about thirty-five acres, and are prepared to say we save at least twenty jive dollar* by the experiment. All the expense or trouble aside from the first cost of the Mower, was in grinding the knives once, which perhaps occupied an hour's time of two men. DEANA BALLARD HOLT.

DR. M'LANE'S CELEBRATED

VERMIFUGE LIVERPILLS.

\\TE beg leave to call the attention of the Trade, and more

especially the Physicians of the country, to two of the most popular remedies now before the public. We refer to

Dr. Clias. B'Lnne'i Celebrated

Vermifuge and Liver Pills. We do not recommend them as

universal Cure-alls, but simply for what their name purports, viz.:

THE VERMIFUGE, For expelling Worms from the human system. It has also been administered with the most satisfactory results to various Animals subject to Worms.

THE LIVER PILLS, For the cure of LIVER COMPLAINTS,

all BILIOUS DERANGEMENTS, SICK

HEAD-ACHE, &C. In cases of

FEVER AND AGUE, preparatory to or after taking Qui- nine, they almost invariably make a speedy and permanent cure.

As specifics for the above mentioned di$eases, they are Unrivaled, and never known to fail when administered in accordance with the directions.

Their unprecedented popularity has induced the proprietors,

FLEMING BROTHERS,- PITTSBURGH, PA.

to dispose of their Drug business, in which they have been successfully engaged for the last Twenty Years, and they will now give their undivided time and attention to their manufacture. And being determined that Dr. M'Lane's Cele- brated Vermifuge and Liver Pills shall continue to occupy the high position they now hold among the great remedies of the day, they will continue to spare neither time nor expense in procuring the Best and Purest material, and compound them in the most thorough manner.

With doubting hearts men murmuring said- " Our toils iiaro been in vain,

But while they spoke—within the west, At sunset's flowing hour,

God's voice proclaimed, in thunder tones, The coming of the shower.

Tho dcep'ning shadows slowly crept O'er mountain and o'er plain,

Until In cool and copious floods Came down the blessed rain.

THE APPLE TUBE BOREB.

A writer in the Genesee Farmer

gives an opinion tulit the apple tree "trill never attack a perfectly healthy

tree," remarking that " there is a vast difivreDce between a thrifty tree and a healthy one." A healthy tree ho regards ns one that has received nothing

but vegetable manure (good soil,) where- as, a thrifty tree may have received an-

imal manure. He remarks that the borer would -not molest the tree which had been grown wholly by the aid of

vegetable manures. To illustrate this

theory, he refers to one of his orchards, which was set on unbroken pasture land, and received but one ploughing and no manure. These trees were

never attacked by borers, while in the other orchards, which had been repeatedly ploughed and fertilized with

auimal manure, (that is, barn-yard manure,) they commit their yearly depre-

dations. The facts here stated clearly illustrate

what we have repeatedly published; and as the writer does not attempt to

explain the cause, he is evidently labor- ing under a misapprehension. The

facts are simply these: Trees planted and manured with

stimulating (animal) mnnure, are forced Into a rapid, immature growth,, leaving

the stem and young branches filled with sap. This sap is severely frozen dur-

ing the cold days of winter, and when it becomes suddenly thawed, as it frequently will, on the sunny side, in the

middle of the day, the sap becomes vitiated and diseased, producing similar

results on that side of the tree next to the sun, to those which take place in a potatoc or other vegetable when frozen and suddenly thawed. This dis-

eased condition is just what the borer seeks. The trees planted in ordinary good soil make a more slow, healthy

and matured growth, and are not liable to tho same injury by frost, and hence

not exposed to disease, and of course, inviting to the insect.

Newly planted trees should be kept

in a healthy, growing condition ; and, by timely cultivation, their growth may

be entirely under the control of the cultivator. The most critical period with a young orchard of apple trees in this respect is from three to six years

from the time of planting. As an additional safeguard we have frequently recommended training the trees with

low heads, and to do this the work of

training must begin while the trees are young. Cut them back well, and force out • growth of branches near the ground—let the height be governed by the habit of growth of the particular va-

riety. The branches shade the body of the tree, and prevent the fatal consequences of the sudden changes through the influence of cold and heat. Nor are these all the advantages resulting from low-trained trees. They are much less

liable to assume a leaning position by the influence of prevailing winds. The

fruit is more easily gathered and less liable to injury in falling from the trees.

Low-headed trees it is true require a little more care in cultivation to guard against bruising,them,but this is a small

matter when the work is done with implements of proper construction.—

Valley Farmer. —— 1 — i

AsnES.—Take especial care of all the ashes made on your place; do not

permit them to be exposed. Five bushels of ashes, mixed with two doable horse-carts of marsh-river mud, mnck or

peat, will convert the whole into manure. A hogshead or two of soap-suds

would do the same thing. Therefore, among your other savings, save and

utilize them.

rsrtllirittons jseltctioik The rudeness of Dr. Parr to ladies

was sometimes extreme. To a lady who bad ventured to oppose him with more warmth of temper than cogency of reasoning, and who afterwards apolo- gized for herself by saying that " it was the privilege of women to talk nonsense." "No, madam, it is not their privilege, but their infirmity. Ducks would walk if they could ; but nature suffers them only to waddle."

" I'll bet a sheep," said Jones to his better half, " that our boy Tom is going crazy. He is grinning at the plough, and grinning at the barn, and grinning

at himself, wherever he goes." "Pooh!" said the woman, " don't you know ? he got a love letter this morning."

When Anacharsis, the Scythian, was travelling in Greece, he was reproached by an Athenian with the barbarity of his native land. " It is true,"- replied Anacharsis, " that my country is a disgrace to me, but you are a disgrace to your country."

A story is told of a verdant daughter of Erin, a servant in one of our city

families. The first day she made her appearance in the kitchen, the lady of the house was present to initiate the unsophisticated daughter of Erin into the mystery of cooking. In preparing for dinner, she desired the girl to bring her the " spider." " The whut, ma'am ?'

inquired Biddy, with a look of great

astonishment. " Why, the spider," replied the lady of the house. "The spither, is it? Ochl howly Moses I do yo ate spithers in this country ?"

A FAIR HIT. — Scarcely had the mails brought by the Baltic been distributed, When it was announced on

'Change that the steamer had been disposed of to the British Company.

There was much astonishment expressed at such unwelcome news; but the whole truth came out when one of the bro- kers of Wall street inquired, " What have they sold her for ?" " What for ? Why to tow the Cunard steamer from Liverpool to New York, to be sure."

Ayer's Sarsaparilla, A compound remedy, in which we havo labored to produce tho most effectual alterative that can be made. It is a concentrated extract of Para Sarsaparilla, so combined with other substances of still greater alterative power as to Afford an effective antidote for the diseases Sarsaparilla is reputed to cure. It is believed that such a remedy is wanted by those who suffer from Stru- mous complaints, and that one which will accomplish their care must prove, of immense service to this large class of our afflicted fellow- citizens. How completely this compound will do it has been proven by experiment on many of the worst cases to bo found of the following complaints:

SCROFULA AKB SCROFULOUS COHTLAIKTB, EBUPTIOSB AND EUUI'TIVB DISEASES, UL- CBBS, PIMPLES, BLOTCHES, TUMORS, SALT RHJEUM, SCALD IIKAD, SYPHILIS AND SYPHI- LITIC AFFECTIONS, MERCURIAL DISEASE,

DROPSY, NEURALOIA OR TIO DOULOCREACX, DEBILITY, DYSPEPSIA AJTD INDIGESTION, ERYSIPELAS, ROSE, OR ST. AKTHOKY'S FIRE, and indeed the whole class of complaints arising from IMPURITY OF THE BLOOD. .

This compound wilt be found a great pro- moter of health, when token in the spring, to ex- pel tho foul humors which fester in die blood at that season of the year. By the timely expul- sion of them many rankling disorders are nipped in the bud. Multitudes can, by the aid of this remedy, spare themselves from the endurance of foul eruptions and ulcerous sores, through which tho system will strive to rid itself of corruptions, if not assisted to do this through the natural channels of tho body by an alterative medicine. Cleanse out the vitiated blood whenever you find its impurities bursting through the skin in pimples, eruptions, or sores; cleanse it when you find it is obstructed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it whenever it is foul, and your feelings will tell you when. Even where no particular disorder is felt, people enjoy better health, and live longer, for cleansing the blood. Keep the blood healthy, and all is well; but with this pabulum of life disordered, there can be no lasting health. Sooner or later something must go wrong, and the great machinery of life is disordered or overthrown.

Sarsaparilla has, and deserves much, the reputation of accomplishing these ends. But the world has been egregiously deceived by preparations of it, partly because toe drug alone has not all the virtue that is claimed for it. but more because many preparations, pretending to be concentrated extracts of it, contain but little of tho virtue of Sarsaparilla, or any thing else.

During late years the public have been misled by largo bottles, pretending to give a quart of Extract of Sarsaparilla for one dollar. Most of these hare been frauds upon the sick, for they not only contain little, if any, Sarsaparilla, but often no curativo properties whatever. Hcacc, bitter and painful disappointment has followed the use of tho various extracts of Sarsaparilla which flood tho market, until the name itself is justly despised, and has become synonymous with imposition and cheat. Still we call this compound Sarsaparilla, and intend to supply such a remedy as shall rescue the name from tho load of obloquy which rests upon it. And wo think we have ground for believing it has virtues which are irresistible by tho ordinary run of the diseases it is intended to cure. In order to secure their complete eradication from the system, the remedy should be judiciously taken according to directions on the bottle.

AND, AT PRESENT II. M.'s DIRECTOR OF TBS INSTITUTE OF CHEMICAL INVESTIGATION, Sec.,

Do hereby certify, that at the request of the house of Got tig & Will, of this place, I have made an an- alytical examination of U. Wolfe's Aromatio Schie- dam Schnapps, with the object of ascertaining if it contained any substance noxious to health, and to inform them as to its true composition and relative quality with the other gins that aro offered in the murkct, and the results of my observations and experiments are as follows:

«*Udolpho Wolfe's Aromatio Schiedam Schnapps b a spirituous liquid, of a very agreeable aromatic odor, completely transparent and almost colorless, having only a very slight tint of yeliowbh-gray; its flavor b strong, and very agreeable to the palate. It marks 20 degrees in Cnrtier's alcohol weigher, or 62 degrees 5 hundrodths in Gay Lussae's alcohotnetcr. By the distillation in a balaium nutria, with an apparatus eonsbtlng of a glass retort and a recipient surrounded with ice, I have collected in this recipient an alcohol ic liquid with a very agreeable aroma, completely colorless and transparent, which marked 00 degrees in Cartlcr's alcoholic weigher, or 70 degrees 6 hundredths on Gay Lossac's alcohometer; and which represented, as a whole, 67 per cent of Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps subject to distillation in the retort. This liquid did not soil the transpar- ency of the distilled water In mixing It with the same, and its agreeable aroma is doubtless due to a very trifling amount of an essential oil inseparable from alcohol.

From the remainder of the distillation which was left in the retort, I have obtained, through evaporation in a vapor bath, a substance of a yellowish- brown color, clear, and having a bitter taste which b not dbagreeable, and which afterwards becomes aromatic, and leaves the mduth perfumed with that fragrance peculiar to the vanilla. I am inclined to believe that to this bitter and aromatic extractive substance, soluble In water and alcohol, the medicinal properties which are attributed to this gin are due. I have not found In Udolpbo Wolfe's Aroma- tic Schiedam Schnapps any mineral or organic substance other than the extractive one already named, and the aromatio one obtained by distillation. Finally, Udolpho Wolfe's Aromatio Schie- dam Schnapps consists simply of an aromatic alcohol of 20 degrees of graduation Jn Cartlcr's alcoholic weigher, and of an extractive bitter aromatic substance, which, perhaps, b medicinal; and on account of Its not containing any matter injurious to the health, as well as for Its odor and good flavor, — a fact which no doubt arises from the choice substances employed In its manufacture, and from the peculiar manner of lb distillation,— It should, in my opluion, be preferred to all the Holland, Belgle, and German gins which are found In this bland which it has been my business to examine. These gins, as 1 have often proved it, exhale a dbagreeable odor, and have a more or less disagreeable flavor, some of them having left, as was the oase with the superior gin from the distillery of Mr. Henry Deetjen (of Bremen), as resldum, after evaporation by steam, a substance almost Insipid, and very trlflingly aromatic, with flavor of vanilla, but in nowise with the delicious bitter and aromatio flavor of that of Udolpho Wolfe; and others, such as that labelled "Genuine Samaritan," "Extra Superior," Messrs Tracher, have furnished me a very small quantity of a greenish substance, of harsh, metallic taste, and very dbagreeable j which extractive organic matter was mixed with a salt of copper, with signs of iron, owing, perhaps, to a bad system of distillation.

I certify .hat all that b here stated b the truth, and agrees with the experiments I have made with the greatest care; and I authorise the house of Got- tig and Will, of thin city, to give publicity to thb certificate, in Spanish and In foreign languages, in all countries where It may suit their interest to do so.

5>tl«teb'Jocfrj. TELLING THE BEES. BY JOUK O. WHITT1KK.

Here is the piece ; right over the hill Runs the path I took ;

You can sen the gap in the old well stilt, And the stepping-stones in the shallow

brook.

There is ihc home, with the gate red-barred, And the poplars tall;

And the barn s brown length, and the cattle- y»id,

And the white horns tossing above the wall.

There are the bee hives ranged in the sun ; And down by the brink

Ot the brook are her poor flowers, weed-o'er- run,

Pansy and daffodil, rose and pink.

A year has gone, as the tortoise goes, Heavy and slow ;

And the same rose blows, and the same son glows,

And the same brook sings of a year ago.

There's the same swoet clover-smell in the breeze,

And the June sun warm Tangles his Wings of fire in the trees.

Settling, as then, over Femsido farm.

I mind me how with a lover's care From my Sunday coat

I brushed off the burrs, and smoothed my hair,

And cooled at the brook-side ray brow and throat.

bince we parted, a month had passed,— To love, a year;

Down through the beeches, I looked at last On the little red gate and the well-sweep

near.

I con see ita'l now,—the slantwise rain Of light through the leaves,

The sundown s blaze on her window-pane, The bloom of her roses under the eaves.

Just the same as a month before,— The house and the trees,

The barn's brown gable, the vine by the door. Nothing changed but the hive of bees.

Before them, under the garden wall, Forward and back,

Went, drearily singing, the chore-girl small, Draping each hive with a shred of black.

Trembling, 1 listened; the summer sun Had the chill of snow ;

For I knew she was " telling the bees"* of one Gone on the journey we all must go I

Then I said to myself," My Mary weeps For the dead to-day;

Haply her blind old grandsire sleeps The fret of his age and pain away."

But her dog whined low; on the door-way still,

With his cane to his chin, The old man sat; and the chore-girl still

Sung to the bees stealing out and in.

And the song she was singing ever since In my ear sounds on :

" Stay at home, pretty bees, fly not hence 1 Mistress Mary is dead and gone I"

*A remarkable custom, brought from the Old Country, formerly prevailed in the rural districts of New England. On the death of a member of the family, the bees were at once informed of the event, and their hives dressed in mourning. This ceremonial was supposed to be necessary to prevent the swarms from leaving their hives and selecting a new home.

TRICE TWO CENTS.

Sektiom GEN. STAKE'S HOMESTEAD.

The. following article, which we copy from the Manchester (N. H.) American, WHS furnished by Wm. Stark, Esq., the New Hampshire poet. It contains many particulars of historic interest concerning Gets. Stark, which have never before been published, and more reliable, too, no doubt, than much that has been said and written of this eccentric old General, as alike of most others of the revolutionary heroes:

We rode out last evening to the old Stark place. It is on the east bank of the Merrimack, about a mile above the city, and its locality is by far the most fertile and beautiful of our whole suburbs. The Stark Farm originally comprised about one thousand acres of the best land in the vicinity, and extended from near the foot of Amoskeng Falls for about two miles up the east bank of the river. Here, in about the year 1733, the General's father, Archibald Stark, a member 'of an aristocratic family, a graduate of a Scottish University, and a gentleman of highly refined and cultivated lasts, having incurred the dis- pleasure of bis haughty relatives by marrying a poor but beautiful and worthy girl, and having fled to America to avoid a family quarrel, had located himself with his young bride in what was then almost a trackless forest. There was one solitary cart-path leading through the woods to the distant settlements in Londonderry. Every spring some of these settlers together with a few straggling Indians, would visit the Falls for the purpose of fishing. There were one or two settler's cabins near the Falls for purposes of fishing. There were one or two settler's cabins near the Fall*, and on the bank of the little brook which runs past the Falls school house, was a solitary Indian wigwam, inhabited by John Christo, the last of the Pennacooks, and the sole remnant of the red man at Amoskeag.

Stark devoted himself to the cares of business and the improvement of his large estate, until he became one of the wealthiest landed proprietors in New Hampshire, owning, besides his large farm, vast tracts of land in different sec- tions, including nearly the whole town- ship of Dunbarton, which was called, in honor of him, Starkstown.

The early youth of John Stark was passed at the old homestead. His father originally intended him for one of the original professions; and, in the absence of educational advantages,' had taken upon himself the task of fitting Irim for college.

But the boy had early made the acquaintance of the Indian Christo; and, reclining upon the bearskin in Christo's wigwam, had listened with all a child's enthusiasm to his wild and vivid descriptions of a hunter's life, until, charmed by its fascinations of adventure, he abandoned all ambition for professional honors, and pursuaded his in- dulgent father to allow him to follow the occupation of a hunter.

Thenceforward until the close of the revolution, when he was upwards of fifty yens of age, John Stark was but an occasional sojourner at the family mansion. The events of his life during all this time are now matters of public history, too well known to require com- ment.

Upon the close of the Revolution, his country no longer requiring his services, the General returned to his paternal estate. His father had long since died, and the absence of its owner at the wars had shown its effects in worn-out fields, and in pastures fast returning to their native wildness. But he now devoted himself to reclaiming the soil; and here, for nearly forty years, dispensed his generous hospitalities, and glided smoothly down the. vale, until, at the ripe old age of ninety-four, he was gathered to his fathers.

This spot now almost seems like classic ground. It was here that Gov. Belcher and suite, the famous Governor under the King one hundred and twenty- five years ago, received such a sharp rebuff from John Stark's mother, when she imagined that some invidious com- parisons were being made between her ancestry and that of her husband; and here, fifty years afterwards, when at the close of the wars John Stark had returned to his homestead, reigned that free hearted hospitality which was so marked a characteristic of the General's later years. His house was open to all, and especially if an old soldier or a companion in arms chanced to pass that way, the old General considered it a personal slight if he did not prolong bis stay at least one week.

General Stark never sold any produce from his farm. All above that required for his family consumption and sometimes more, was yearly given to the poor. And even when extreme old age had somewhat dimmed his faculties and abated his interest in strangers, still whoever would listen to his tales of the wars was welcome to his fireside and table so long as he chose to remain.

Here, of a warm summer afternoon, the old hero would sit in his arm chair under the tree before his door. On the bench beside him was his bowl of punch, and around him, sitting on the benches or reclining on the grass were his guests, his neighbors, and any chance travellers who had stopped a moment to see the General.. His conversation would

illustration so characteristic of it* old proprietor.

But while the place seems redolent with revolutionary reminiscences, we miss the antique peculiarities of the old. mansion. The Vandals have been there; and the curious gables of the doors and windows ; the strange looking honeycomb carvings under the project- ing eves; the great entrance hall and the oaken stairway, wide enough for a baronial castle ; the walls painted in curious devices; the great ki o'ten, where among the huge beams of the ceiling

TWO DAUGHTERS EMAWOUATED BY ' THEIR FATHER.

The Cleaveland (Ohio) leader gives an interesting account of the efforts of a Mississippi planter to liberate his two daughters, who were also his slaves. James Oldham, the planter in question, left his estate in Coalmma/'ounty, Miss., in the summer of 1867, with the two girls, for Oberlin, Ohio, where he proposed to educate as we'll as emancipate them. At Memphis, the younger and pet daughter, Cyrena, preferring the ease of her sunny home to the restraints

Molly kept her dried apples* bei-.^age,^ (eboo| hf(! „ef?ged t0 be permitted to her strings of onions and her garden seeds; the huge fireplace, where the children sat in the corner and popped corn in the ashes, and where, by looking up you could see the stars at noon- day ;—all these have vanished ; all sac- rificed to what is falsely termed improvement ; and we have nothing left but a plain square built country farm house, grim, gloomy and desolate.

But there is one relic which has been preserved. The old " Buffet" which stood in the corner of the front room is there yet; and on its oaken shelves Molly kept her bright pewter tea-pol, which, when her public spirit would not allow her to use the British tea, she took down and melted into bullets to fire at the British soldiers.

But we leave this place with a sigh of Sadness at Its dilapidation and deface- ment. On our return, we perceive upon the right the grave where the old hero sleeps—a lit lie mound on the bank of the Merrimack, selected with singular felicity in the beauty of its prospect. The General himself cho.-e this spot as his last resting place, quaint- ly observing that he desired, when he rose, " to have a good view, that he might see what had been going on during his absence." A simple wooden enclosure surrounds his monument, a Btnall Doric shaft of Granite, with this simple inscription :

MAJ. GEN. JOHN 8TABK.

Historians say that he needs no other monument. Perhaps not. But do not people need fo testify to their children in all coming generations that he who serves his country shall be remembered. Bunker Hill needs no monument; Lex- ington needs no monument; Washing- ton needs no monument. But the people have erected monuments, not to the exploits by them perpetuated, but of the enduring regard which lives in the breast of every true American towards those who have secured our blessings for us. Can we not look forward to the time when that lovely mound shall be crowned with a monument alike worthy of the great name of him who sleeps beneath it, and of the high reverence which New Hampshire has for ber most distinguished General?

SUCCESSFUL BOOKS.

About one book only in a hundred is a success. When Campbell, at a literary festival toasted Buonaparte as a friend to literature, because he once had a bookseller shot, he was a trifle too rough on the trade. It is impossible always for a publisher to decide rightly. All publishers are naturally shy of a new manuscript of poetry, for instance, for they know by experience that the deadest of all dead books is a dead volume of verse. The sepulchre of deceased poetry in Mr. Burnham's churchyard of old books, in Cornhill, is the

return to the plantation, which the in- dulgent father consented to, and continued on bis journey with the other, arriving at Oberlin in August. The day after arriving, Mr. Oldham was taken with typhoid dysentery, and, after lingering three weeks, died. When ho became convinced that he must die, his concern for the freedom of his youngest daughter became intense. Linger- ing among the loved scenes of her childhood, she was liable to be inventoried among the chatties of his estate, and sold at a high price, because of her light complexion, beautiful ringlets and graceful form. Fully sohscious of this, his anguish was keen. He knew, too, that the laws of Mississippi forbid emancipation within her borders, and farther, that he could not by his will make her free to be sent out of the State, nor could he will her in trust to another lor the purpose of making her free, neither could he sell her to any o e for that purpose. Thus he was be- leaguered on every hind. At length, by advice of a lawyer, a will was executed, by the terms of which the daughters were made free, and the sum of four thousand dollars bequeathed for their support and education, and Dr. Rea, )iis physician, appointed executor. It was also provided-that the whole of the above sum of four thousand dollars should be expended, if necessary, to secure the freedom of the youngest girl, (the eldest daughter being already free) should an attempt to prevent it be made by the heirs.

The wish of the father was finally accomplished, but not until after a severe struggle—every point being hotly contested by the heirs and cruel laws on one side, and Dr. Rea and humanity on the other. For a time it seemed ns if the poor girl was doomed, and that the money as well as her liberty would be lost. At length a point was decided by the Supreme Court of Mississippi, in a case involving some important ones in this, and the controversy was brought to a close by a compromise, in which the Doctor secured the freedom of the girl, and three thousand dollars of the money. A few days ago the Doctor had the pleasure of seeing the two sisters, now twelve and fifteen respectively, re-united at Oberlin in accordance with the wishes of their father.

of. his father's motive, and ever after was a sadder and wiser boy.—Aroostoak Pioneer. 1 ■ ■ % —

EFFECTS OF INDEPENDENCE.

The most apparent effects of the Declaration of Independence in political independence have not been the greatest real effects. We were, to a great extent, free from Great Britain, from the very settlement of the country. That is, the colonies had to provide for their own most pressing wants. and, in the town meetings of New Eng- land and. the colonial legislatures, arrange their own police, their defence against the Jndians, and for the ten thousand wants of n new country. But there was a freedom of opinion to be attained, which was necessary to the realization of the full benefits of Amer- ican independence. There was a Moral dependence upon England that was not mutual, and that had. nothing of recip- rocated interest on the part of the mother country. This was the great thing cut asunder by the signing of that document.

The political independence from the dominion of British soldiers was ns nothing to this independence of opinion from the customs and usages ot Eng- land, and the habit of looking up to the old country for all ideas, education, milliners and modes of living and of thought. In this aspect it is that the Fourth of July .is seen in all its greatest effects, upon the country. In the British Provinces there is the least possible political authority exercised over the Camillas at this moment. But there is that spirit of looking up to the mother country, its manners, and its ideas, that makes the Provincials only feeble imi- tators of us in some things, and of Eng- land in others, and not even integral parts of any great and mighty natiou.

We are free ia opinion, free to devel- ope the ever new relations springing out of new circumstances in a new and natural way, without deference to the insular prejudices and precedents growing out of the contracted territory and ancient customs of Great Britain. We are free from church establishments in tT.rry form and shape, free to form con- .e pienlly our own religious and political opinions, our fashions, our habits, and our education, in whatever direction truth seems to lead. Let the Fourth of July be spent in all coming time in developing thus the true independence of nations in all right, wise and true directions.—Phila. Ledger.

And when the frosts of winter had driven him to the chimney corner, he still gathered his little auditory about him to shoulder his crutch and fight his battles o'er again.

As he grew older the number of visitors increased, until every prominent man of those times was reckoned among his guests. Even in his old age the General never lost his relish for a joke. Among others, Daniel Webster once paid the veteran a visit. He was introduced to the General as the son of his old friend, Captain Webster. The old man took his band, eyed him keenly for a moment, and then said, " Ah, now, and are you the son of Captain Web- ster ? Well, you would make a good soldier for a night attack." " How so," asked Mr. Webster, somewhat curious- ly. « Well," said the General his eyes twinkling with a quiet humor," you're blacker than your father; and he was so black that he didn't show by moon- light 1' Those who remember Mr. Webster's complexion will at once see the point of the remark.

The novel of " Jane Eyro" was turned away from the doors of almost every respectable publishing house in London, and was pulled, by accident, out of a publisher's iron safe, where it bad begun to grow mouldy, by the daughter of the bookseller, who had himself forgotten it. " Eothen" was carried by its author, Mr. Kingslcy, 40 twenty different houses, till in a fit of despair, he gave the copyright to an obscure bookseller, paying the expenses of its publication out of his own pocket. Mr. Thackeray's " Vanity Fair" was rejected by Mr. Colburn, for whose magazine it was written,—that astute gentleman complaining, that, there was no interest in it. A New Yorkajspublishcr fought the writer of a now popular book, from spring to autumn, and at length gave in from sheer inability to escape importunity longer. After it was stereo- typed, and before it was printed, he of-

I KNEW SHE WOULD.

Deacon W. was n staid and honest liuptist deacon in one of the towns of Maine, who had a vein of dry, caustic humor in his composition. The deacon had a boy of some dozen summers who was sometimes inclined to be a little ugly when'not under the parental eye. In school especially, John was n source of constant annoyance to the teacher. One day the teacher whipped him for some sort of misdemeanor,-and John went homo crying toenter his complaint, and told his father the mistress had whipped-him.

'• What I" exclaimed the deacon, elevating His eyebrows, "been whipped?"

" Y-a-a-s," sobbed the boy. " And did you let a woman whip

ye?" shouted the old deacon. " Y-a-a-s ; I couldn't help it" " Well, John, you little rascal, you go

to school to-morrow, and if Miss ——— undertakes to whip you again, ye jest pitch in—don't let a woman whip ye if ye can help it. Don't take a stick to strike with, but ye may kick and strike as much as ye're a mind to."

The next day the boy went to school, and emboldened by the permission given by his father was soon brought up before the tribunal of violated rules. The teacher undertook to correct him, and he did as his father told him. JBhe result was that he got a most unmerciful trouncing, and was thoroughly subdued. When be went home he went to his father crying:

"On, DF.AB! SHALL VK EVEII BE DONE LYING ?"—An honest old gentleman, in telling us his troubles, gave great prominence to the necessity he was frequently under of disappointing his customers, whose'work could not be finished as soon as he had promised. After explaining the difficulty, he looked up with great earnestness and exclaimed, " Oh, dear! shall we ever be done with this lying.'"

We have often wondered ourselves whether such a consummation would ever take place. "Your boots shall be done on Saturday night without fail." Nevertheless, you have to go to church with gaping shoes for want of them. " Your coat shall be sent home by nine o'clock on Saturday night;" and you get it, in fact, the Wednesday after. " Will you lend me your wheelbarrow ? I will return it to-night." You wait for it till next week, and then send for it. My curpenter solemnly agreed to finish my house by November; but it was July before I could get the key. My wood was to be split on Saturday afternoon—enough for the Sabbath; and so it was, but I had to do it. *

My money was to be paid the next week ; and then, next week ; and then, NEXT week—and then, as he could get it; he did get it, and spent it; and then it should be paid when he got it again —he got It again, and paid another debt because the man treated him more savagely that I would. Tbe strength laid out in running for this money, if it had been economically applied to labor, would nearly have earned the; whole debt. The fellow never paid' me at last; but Death came along and he paid him promptly. "Oh, dear! shall we ever get done with this lying?" It is one of the few domestic manufactures which need no protection, and flourishes without benefit either to the producer or consumer.—Henry Ward Jieecher. fc

ALWAYS BUSY.—That's right, my lad, you will be something yet. We never knew a smrirt, active, industrious boy, who did not turn out an energetic, enterprising and wealthy man. Better wear out than rust out, Is a good proverb, and we rejoice to see you follow it up. We would rather hare you than a, dozen dozy-headed, sleeping, inactive youths, who do nothing from morning till night but beat the chairs, read the newspapers and grunt to the customers. Be always busy.

Next to the wonder how Hie milk got into the cocoanut,came the marvel how the chickens could gel into eggs. This has been succeeded by a question sub- mitted by one of the Dundreary family, who asked why white ashes should come from coal, when coal was so deuced black ? That's the idea.

MOWING MACHINES.—We are glid to tee that these very important implements are coming into quite general use in this vicinity. There has been considerable preju- dice among many of our farmers, owing doubtless to the many failures or partial failures at the early trials, before some of the most important improvements were made. In regard to their ultimate success, we have no doubt but that in a very few years they will be regarded as indispensable as the horse rake.

As far as we are able to learn, Manny's machine seems to be regarded with the most favor lit those who have given their attention to the subject Several of these have been sold in town, (we do not know bow many, but believe they are in use by Messrs. Dean and Ballard Holt, P. P. Pillsbury, Joseph Chandler, Joseph Shattuck and others), and have in all cases given satisfaction. Mr. Chandler informs us that on one day this week he mowed with his machine (a one horse machine) a piece measuring one hundred and fifty-two square rods in fifty-seven minutes, and this without an extra effort. This is at the rate of an acre per hour, and we regard it as a fair trial in every respect. The ground was not more favorable than the average of upland on his farm. T;,e machine was a new one, just from the manufactory, and not one fitted up for exhibition. The driver was almost wholly unaccustomed to its use, and the horse was one that is constantly employed at all kinds of farm work, and had never been bitched to a mowing machine but once or twice before, but it did not seem harder for him than much other farm work. We hope that all our farmers will give these machines a fair trial.

ATLANTIC MONTHLY.—It may not be uninteresting to some of our readers to learn the names of the authors of several articles in this magazine. The contributions of Mrs. Stowe and Dr. Holmes are well known ; there are others whose writers are known only to those who get admitted behind the scenes. The excellent sketch entitled " Bulls and Bears" was written by Mr. Underwood, who is one of the editors of the Atlantic. The article which obtained so much notoriety sometime since, entitled " Farming Life in New England," was by Dr. Holland, editor of the Spring- field Republican. In the June number of the present year, the article on " Shaks- peare's Art" is, by G. W. Peck of Boston ; the sketch called " Mien-Yann," by E. H. House of Boston; "Smollett" by Winthrop Sargent of Philadelphia t 'A Charge with Prince Rupert" by T. W. Higginson; " The Steroeeope and the Sterograph" by Dr. Holmes. Of the poetry in that number, " Bloodroot" is by Rev. Thomas Hill; "Joy Month" by-Rev. W. W. Warren.; " Tlte Sphinx" by J. A. Duganne. The ar.icles on the " Singing Birds, &c," including the one in the August number, entitled " Biids of the Night," are by Wil- son Flagg of this town. We may add that the " Atlantic Monthly" has had a very remarkable success, and will undoubtedly be a permanent and enduring publication. i ei i ■—

ABBOTT FEMALE SEMINARY Miss Philena McKeen, recently connected with the Western Female Summary, has been appointed Principal Of Abbott Female Ac- ademy. She has accepted the appointment, and will enter upon her duties at the commencement of the next term, assisted by Miss Phelm F. McKeen. Both were educated and have taught in New England schools, and the Trustees have been highly favored in being able to secure for the Acadmy the. services of ladies of such eminent qualifications and valuable experience. We learn that the prospects of the school are quite promising, and that there is likely to be a large increase in the number of pupils.

Thero is no place like the Seminary Hill for schools. There are good reasons why they flourish here. Besides having good teachers, there are the attractions of the place—its beautiful scenery, delightful walks and glorious sunsets, its unsurpassed health- fulness, its quietude, its clustered institutions of learning, the devotion of so many to educational pursuits, its literary privileges and occasions, its moral and religious influences, its exemption from hurtful ex. citements and temptations,—all these form an array of reasons why this town has a rare pre-eminence as a place for study and literary resort.

HARVARD COLLEGE.—The commencement exercises a*. Harvard occurred on Wed. nesday of this week. Ninety young men received the degree of A. B., thirty-seven that of M. D., nine that of B. S., and fbrti- seven that of Bachelor of Laws. Fourteen received their Diplomas in the Divinity School. Of the 140 who applied for admission to the next Freshman Claas, 40 were admitted without "conditions," 80 with conditions, and 20 were rejected. At the meeting of the Association of the Alumni, the committee to devise means for the increase of the Library reported that subscriptions were coming in very liberally, and that about $10,000 had been received. Resolutions were adopted and a committee appointed to procure a statue of Ex-Presi- dent Quincy for the College. The work of making the statue is to be entrusted to Wm. Story, Esq., an alumnus of the College under the Presidency of Mr. Quincy. It will cost about $8,000.

hundred persons, representing most of the Methodist churches in the Boston and Lynn districts, visited the new Ashbury Grove nt Hamilton on Wednesday, for the purpose of securing tent sites. The sale comprised thirty-five lots, and the bidding tor a choice was very spirited, and the premium money amounted to about four hundred dollars. The first choice of the lots was secured by the church at Melrose, ant) the second by the Centenary Church of South Boston. The holders of these lots retain them from year to year, on the payment of three dollars, and the money thus obtained goes to the necessary expenses of the camp. A large two story budding called the Preach- ers' house, is in course of construction, in which will be stored the tents and baggage. The Preaching tent will accommodate five thousand persons; seats provided with backs have been furnished to seat three thousand comfortably. The unexpected success in the sale of premiums, ami the great interest manifested by the delegation in attendance, bespeak a very successful camp meeting next month.—Salem Ob.

AGRICULTURAL FAIR.—At the monthly meeting of the Amesbury and Salisbury Agricultural and Horticultural Association it was votetl that Thursday, the 29th day of September next, be the lime for holding the annual Fair, aud that a procession and oration be among the orders of the 'day. The committees were instructed to hire ground and erect pens for an exhibition of farm stock, and also to procure a suitable field for a ploughing match.

MILITARY.—Major Poore, the command, or of the Essex North Rill* Battalion, does duty during the winter months under Ma- jor Charles O. Rogers, in the columns of the Boston Journal, as its Washington correspondent. Since his return home this summer be has been agreeably surprised by the receipt of a new aud beautiful uniform, a gift from Major Rogers, who has thus expressed his satisfaction with the " Waif's from Washington," which he received during the last session of Congress. The new uniform will of course be worn at the Con- cord encampment, where the First Battalion of Rifles will appear with full ranks, and will enjoy themselves none the lean, we are confident, because the officers anticipated the request of the Commander-in-Chief, and pledged themselves neither to use intoxicating beverages or furnish thein to their friends. This is the more commendable, as a majority of those thus pledged are not connected with any of the temperance movements of the day, yet cheerfully al>- stain from the use of the worst enemy with which the volunteer militia-, comes iu contact.—Newbvryporl Herald.

TIIK LATE FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE EASTERN RAILROAD.—Coroner Walton of Salem held an inquest over the remains of Cant. Isaac B. Shepard, who was run over and killed on the Eastern Railroad OH Wednesday of last week, and the jury rendered the following vet diet:

R. between Salem and Lynn, by being struck by the engine of lhe'8.80 train from Boston, while walking upon said track ; nnd the jury further find that every preeatrtion was used by the officers of the train, and that no blame tan be attached to them."

WEST NEWBUIIY.—The first horn combs manufactured in this country, were made in West Newbury, just after tho revolutionary war. A Hessian settled there who was accustomed to the working of horns and buttons into combs, and front him the art—if the rude workmanship of,that day was worthy to be called an art—was taught to the population. West Newbury has continued to lead in the business ever since, and to- day it is the largest comb-making town iu the Commonwealth, though most of their work is now in Vulcanized India rubber.— Herald. _ _^^

DR. M'LANK'S CELEBRATED VERHIFOOE AND LIVER PILLS—A singular comhinaiion, but very effectual, as the following will show:

New York, November 20, 1852. Knowing from experience the valuable

qualities of Dr.' M'Lnne's Vermifuge and Liver Pills, prepared by Fleming Bros., Pitts- burgh, 1 have for sometime hack considered it my duty, and made it my business, to make those articles known wherever I went atrioug my friends. A short time ago I became ac- quainted with the case of a young girl, who seemed to bo troubled with worms nnd liver complaint at the samo rime, ahd had been Buf- fering for some months. Through my persua- sion she purchased one Iwttlc of Dr. M'Lane's Vermifuge and Liver Pills, which she took ar. cording to directions. The result was, she passed a large quantity of worms, and thinks that one box more of the pills will restore her to perfect health. Her name and residence nil! be given by calling on E L. Thcall, corner of liutger and Monroe streets.

07" Purchasers will lie careful to ask fur Dn. M'LANK'S CELEBRATED VERMIFUGE, manufactured by Fleming Bros, of Pittsburgh, Pa. All oilier Vermifuges in comparison are worthless. Dr. M'Lane's genuine Vermifuge, also his Liver Pills, can now be had at all respectable drug stores. None genuine withont the signature of FLEMING BROS.

Common sense rules tho mass of the people, whatever the misnamed and misanthrope philosophers may Say to the contrary. Show them a good thing; let its merits be clc.rly demonstrated, and they will not hesitate to give it their most cordial patronage. The masses have already ratified the judgment of a physician, concerning HOSTETTER.

It is now recog- nized as greatly superior to all other remedies yet devised for diseases of the digestive organs, such as diarrhoea, dysentery, dyspepsia, mid for the various fevers that arise from de- rangement of those portions of the system.

THE ATLAS AND DAILY BEE.

THKNKn ENGLAND NKWSPAPED.

TIIK ATI.AS ADD DAILY DICE

AM) THE

WEEKIt ATLAS AND BEB.

The Daily is published everv morning (Sundavs excepted),and«tiH Weekly every

Siiturtbiy, by the"

BEE PUI1XTIKG COMPANY, Nos. T aud 8 Stato Street.

EDITORS:

Z. K. PA*ODORX,WH. SCIIOCLER, J. F. MARSH. Jos. C. ABBOTT, (Residence, Manchester, N. U.)

THE ATLAS AND BICE is now generally rec- ognized as the consistent, earnest and reliable exponent of the principles cherislred imd avowed by the American Bepubllcnn Party of New England, and an the central organ of the domi- nent party. It is tho purpose of the Editors and Publishers of 1HE ATLAS A.M>. DAILY BEK to make it the best Netrsptiper in New Enylaiui.

ITS CONTF.NTS. In the amount nnd vnriety of rendfog matter

■'tis ATLAS AMI DAILY BKR will not be excelled by any journal. A corps of experienced reporters devote their timo and energies to the'col- lection and preparation of the news, nnd for verbatim reports we have the services of Mr. ,1. M. W. Yerrinnton, the host phonographic reporter in New England.

_ llegttlar Correspondents in Washington, New York, Chicago, and other important places in this country and Europe contribute to the pnper.

Especial attention is given to the literary, muri cat aud dramatic departments.

TO BUSINESS MEN AND. ADVERTISERS, The paper is confidently commended as emi-

nently worthy ol their patronage. Reports of the Markets, Prices Current, the Shipping News and whntever is of peculiar interest to tho commercial, manufacturing nnd mercantile Interests, will be found JvlX, seasonable and reliable. Tho paper is printed on an elegant suit of copper faced type, and affords especial facilities for the publication of advertisements in the most attractive style.

ITS POLITICAL CHARACTER will remain the snme as hitherto.

THE ATLAS AND DAILY BEE will be the independent advocate of the principles and policy of the great national party, whose motto is, " Freedom and Free Labor to all men every- where." We thnll oppose the extension of American Slavery and the assumption by it of tho control of the Federal Government, believing that the Constitution of the United States is a charter of liberty, and not an instrumont which eitber establishes or tolernTcs slavery, and that the Union of the 8tates is a confederacy for freedom, and only to be maintained inviolate and perpetuated by treating slavery as a local and purely sectional institution.

We shnll contend for the purltv of the ballot box, and the security of tho right of suffrage from all invasion or corruption, and for its exercise under just and wise limitations.

On all moral and social questions, TnE ATLAS AND DAILY Bag will maintain a high and independent tone, and will seek to advance tho interests of society and the welfare of mankind.

three months, 1 50 TO CLUBS.

M A NN Y'S IMPROVED PREMIUM MOWER

And Combined Mower and Reaper.

The Best and Lightest Draft Ma- chine In use I

GRAND GOLD MEDAL AND DIPLOMA award- cJ as best Mower and Reaper.

SILVER MEDAL as Mower, and SILVER MEDAL as Kenper, by the United States Agricultural Society—at the great trial of Mowers and Reapers at Syracuse, N. Y., in 1857.

THIS. Michino, with the improvement of 1859, is warranted to give entire satisfac-

tion in any kind of grass or grain. The one horse machine, which is the lightest and best ever offered to the public, will cut and spread one acre in seventy minutes. The two-horse machine will do the same work in fifty minutes. This machine can he worked with oxen, as it has a reel to remove the cut grass from the finger-bar; it also starts in the grass without backing, which are very essential points for slow movement.

TESTIMONIAL. We purchased last year, of the agent, C. C.

Holt, a Manny Mower, nnd applied the ox- power. We could mow nn acre in an hoar, and on our steep, hill-sides found no trouble in mowing with oxen, where it would be difficult to go with horses. We.mow about thirty-five acres, and are prepared to say we save at least twenty-Jive dollar* by the experiment. All the expense or trouble aside from the first cost of the Mower, was in grinding t ho. knives once,

BEATUNG YEAS OF APPLE TEEE8.

The bearing of apple trees in alternate years is so general in nil the older States, that it has come to be considered a necessity. With some trees the habit is so inveterate that not a solitary tipple can be found upon the branches in the unfruitful year. The whole energies of the tree and the resources of the soil seem to be exhausted in the fruitful years, so that it lakes two seasons of hibernation and rest to recu- perate. This habit is a great drawback upon the profits of fruit growing. In the abundant years apples are cheap, and the farmer gets but a fair return for his labor. In the scarce year, when prices are high, he has no fruit to sell.

Some facts have come under our observation that leads us to suppose that this habit can be overcome, and that the skilful fruit grower can rely upon a crop of apples every year with as much certainty as upon ajiiy of the root or the even grain crops. In the front yard of the homestead there stood an old tipple tree in a very rich loam. It was kept in grass and bore a large crop of curly apples in alternate years, and yielded nothing in the interval. By way of experimenting, the green sward was broken up, and the whole yard manured and planted as a garden. To the great disappointment of all the skeptics in ihe region, the old tree changed its habits, and bore very full crops two years in succession. The yard was seeded down and it relapsed, but continued to bear in the years Which would have been barren in the old order.

When a young ofthard is put out upon a piece of recently cleared wood- land, where there is abundance of vegetable matter in the soil, it bears with much more uniformity every year than an old orchard under common treatment in the same vicinity. Orchards planted in the new settlements are much more productive than those in the older Slates for the same reason. The trees find aliment enough in the virgin soil to mature good and abundant crops every year.

Nothing pays better for care and attention than (he tipple. A single acre in this fruit, kept in good heart, by ma- nuring and cultivation, will yield more profit than ten acres neglected in the ordinary way. The only secret in having apples abundant every year is in keeping the Irees clean and in feeding (hem. lie who has plenty of muck, peat, lime, ashes, and stable manures, need not go oft- hts own premises to find plant food for his orchard. The breaking up of old orchards, and the application of compost of these materials, will work wonders. Nothing but root crops should ever be attempted in an orchard. The fruit and the grain need similar constituents. We have seen apple trees put back for years by a rye crop. The present month is a good time to begin the work of reno- vating old orchards, and reforming their bearing habits.—Agriculturist.

SULl'UURKTS OF LIME.

The editor of the Genetee Farmer gives a good article in his June number, on the use of sulphur dusted on grape vines and gooseberries, to prevent mildew. Ho then recommends the hyposulphite of lime, dissolved in water, to be syringed on the vines, as being equally efficacious. Sulphur itself cannot be dissolved in water, but when in combination with a certain portion of lime, it becomes very soluble.

To form tho hyposulphite, equal parts of sulphur and lime, say one pound, are boiled ten minutes in a glazed earthen vessel with five pints of

' water. This should be constantly stirred while boiling. It is then allowed to cool, and the clear liqupr mixed with one hundred parts of water and applied to the vines. The same substance, he observes, can be obtained by leeching the refuse lime obtained from the gas works. He directs that very little water be used for leeching, and that afterwards it be largely diluted with water.

He also recommends trial of another combination of sulphur and lime, called Pentasulphuret of Calcium, which is made by boiling seven pounds of sulphur and one of lime together for several hours. This substance contains about eighty per cent, of sulphuret, and is quite soluble in water.

Mr. Harris observes that be has never known this last substance, (Pen- tasulphurate) used as a preventative of

Scroftda, or King's Evil, is n constitutional disease, a corruption of tho blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated, weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, it pervades the whole body, and may burst out in disease on any part of it. No orân is free from its attacks, nor is there ono which it may not destroy. Tho ncrofulous taint is variously caused by mercurial discHse, low living, disordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth, and til thy habits, the depnptfing viccB, and, above all, by the venereal infection. Whatever bo its origin, it is hereditary in tho constitution, descending "from parents to children unto the third and fourth generation;" indeed, it seems to bo the rod of Ilim who says, " I will visit the iniquities of tho fathers upon* their children."

Its effects commence by deposition from tho blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed tubercles; in the glands, swellings; and on the surface, eruptions or gores. This foul corrupt tiori, which genders in tho blood, depresses tho energies of lifo, so that scrofulous constitutions not oily suffer from scrofulous complaints, but t'icv luvc far less power to withstnnd the attacks of o:her diseases: consequently, vast numbers perish by disorders which, although not scrofulous in their nature arc still rendered fatal by tliis taint in the system. Most of the consumption which decimates tho human family has its origin directly in this scrofulous contamination ; and many destructive diseases of tho liver, kid- neys, brain, and, indeed, of nil the organs, uriso from or aro aggravated by the same cause.

One quarter of all our people aro scrofulous ; their persons aro invaded by this lurking infection, and their health is undermined by it. To cleanse it. from tho svstom wo must rcnovuto tho blood by tin alterative medicine, and invigorate it by healthy food and exercise. Such a medicine we supply in

AYER'S Compound Extract of Sarsaparilla, the mo-tt effectual remedy which the medical skill of our times can devise for this every-where prevailing and fatal malady. It is combined from tho most active remediate that have been discovered for tho expurgation of this foul disorder from the blood, and the rescue of the system from its destructive consequences. Hence it should bo citmlovcd for tho cure of not only scrofula, but also tboso other affections which arise from it, such as ERUPTIVE and SKIN DIS-

EASES, ST. ANTHONY'S Finn, HOSE, or Euv- BIPELA8, I'lMPLEB. I'llSl'llLES, BLOTCHES, DLAIXS and BOILS, TUMORS, TETTER, and SALT KUEI M, SCALD HEAD, RINGWORM, KIIEUMATIRM, SYPHILITIC and MERCURIAL

^DISEASES, DROPSY, DYSPEPSIA, DEBILITY, and, indeed, ALL COMPLAINTS ARISING FROM VITIATED OR IMPURE BLOOD. Tho popular l»clicf in ** impurity of the btoad" is founded in truth, for scrofula is a degeneration of the blood. Tho particular purpose and virtue of this Sarsa- parilla is to purify and regenerate this vital fluid, without which sound health is impossible in contaminated constitutions. ,

Ayer's Cathartic Pills, FOR ALL THE PURPOSES OF A FAMILY PHYSIC, ore so composed that disease within the range of their action*can rarely withstand or evade them. Their penetrating properties search, and cleanse, and Invigorate every portion of tho human or- ganism, correcting its diseased action, and restoring its healthy vitalities. As n consequence of these properties, the invalid who is bowed down with pain or physical debility Is astonished to foul his health or energy restored by a remedy nt once so simple ami inviting.

Not only do they cure tho every-day complaints of every liouy, but also many formidable and dangerous'diseascs. The agent below named is pleased to furnish gratis my American Alma- nac, containing certificates of their cures, and directions for their uso in tho following complaints : Cattiveness, Heartburn, Headache aris- my from a disordered Stomach, Nausea, Indiyes- tfon, Pain in and Morbid Inaction of the Bonds, Flatulency, Loss of Appetite, Jaundice, and other I;indred complaints, arising from a low state of the body or obstruction of its functions.

AND, AT PRESENT H. M.'S DIRECTOR 09 THE

INSTITUTE or CHEMICAL INVESTIGATION, fco.,

Do hereby certify, that at the request of the house of Gottiff k Will, of this place, I have made an an- nlytical examination of U. Wolfe's Aromatic Schie- dam Schnapps, with the object of ascertaining if it containcd«any substance noxious to health, and to inform them as to its true composition and relative quality with the other gins that nre offered in the market, and tho results of my observations and experiments are as follows:

•Ûdolpho Wolfe's Aromatic Sehlcdam Schnapps Is a cplrituous liquid, of a very agreeable aromatic odor, completely transparent and almost colorless, having only a very slight tint of yellowish-gray; its flavor is strong, and very agreeable to the palate. It marks 20 degrees in Cartier's alcohol weigher, or 02 degrees-5 hundredths in Gay Luseac's alcohomctcr. I'y the diminution in abalaium maria, with an apparatus consisting of a glass retort and a recipient Rurrounded with ice, I have collected in this recipient an n leoholie liquid with a very agreeable aroma, completely colorless and transparent, which marked 00 degrees In Cartier's alcoholic weigher, or 70 degrees 6 hundredths on Gay JLussae's alcohomelcr; and which represented, as a whole, 67 per cent of Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps subject to distillation In the retort. This liquid did not soil the transpar- ency of the distilled water in mixing it witli the same, and its agreeable aroma is doubtless due to a very trifling amount of an essential oil inseparable from alcohol.

From the remainder of the distillation which was U It in the retort, I have obtained, through evaporation in a vapor bath, a substance of a yellowish- brown color, clear, and having a bitter taste which is not disagreeable, and which afterwards becomes aromatic, and leaves the mouth perfumed with that fragrance peculiar to the vanilla. I am inclined to believe that to this bitter and aromatic extractive substance, soluble in water and alcohol, the medicinal properties which are attributed to this gin are due. I have not found in Udolpho Wolfe's Aroma- tic Schiedam Schnapps any mineral or organic substance other than the extractive one already named, and the aromatic one obtained by distillation. Finally, Udolpho Wolfe's Aromatic Schie- dam Schnapps consists simply of an aromatic alcohol of 20 degrees of graduation in Cartier's alcoholic weigher, and of an extractive bitter aromatic substance, which, perhaps, is medicinal; and on account of its not containing any matter injurious to the health, as well as for its odor and good flavor, — a fact which no doubt arises from the choice nub- stances employed in its manufacture, and from the peculiar manner of its distillation,— ft should. In my opinion, be preferred to all the Holland, Belgic, and German gins which are found in this Island which It has been my business to examine. These gins, as 1 have often proved it, exhale a disagreeable odor, and have a more or less disagreeable flavor, some of them having left, as was the case with the superior gin from the distillery of Mr. Henry Dectjcn (of Bremen), as reaidum, after evaporation by steam, a substance almost Insipid, and very triflingly aromatic, with flavor of vanilla, but In nowise with the delicious bitter and aromatic flavor of that of Udolpho Wolfe; and others, such as that labelled "Genuine Samaritan," "Extra Superior," Messrs Tracher, have furnished me a very small quantity of a greenish substance, of harsh, metallic taste, and very disagreeable; which extractive organic matter was mixed with a salt of copper, with signs of iron, owing, perhaps, to a bad system of distillation.

I certify that all that Is here stated is the truth, and agrees with the' experiments I have made with the greatest care; and I authorize the house of Got- tfg and Will, of this city, to give publicity to this certificate, in Spanish and in foreign languages, in all countries where it may suit their interest to do BO.

AGNES MOLESWORTH.

Dignity, a mild and gentle, but still a most striking dignity, was the prime characteristic of Agnes Molesworth, in look and mind. Her beauty was the beauty of sculpture, and contra-distinguished from that of painting—depend- ing mainly on form and expression, little on color. There could hardly be a stronger contrast than existed btween the purity of her finely-grained complexion, the softness of her deep gray eye, the calm composure of her exquis- itely moulded features, and the rosy cheeks, the brilliant glances, and the full animation of Jessy. In a word Jessy was a pretty girl, and Agnes a beautiful woman. Of these several facts, both sisters were, of coarse, perfectly aware ; Jessy because everybody told her so, and she must have been deaf to escape the knowledge ; Agnes, from some process equally certain, but less direct; for few would have ventured to take the liberty of addressing a personal compliment to one evidently too proud to find pleasure in anything so nearly resembling flattery and praise.

► Few, excepting her looking-glass and her father, had ever told 'Agnes that she was handsome, and yet she was conscious of her surpassing beauty, as Jessy of her sparkling prettiness ; and perhaps, as a mere question of appearance and becomingness there might have been as much of coquetry in the severe simplicity of attire and manner which might distinguish one sister, as in the elaborate adornment and innocent off-showing of the other. There was. however, between them, exactly such a difference of taste and character, as the outword show served to indicate. Both were true, gentle, good and kind ; but the elder was as much loftier in mind as in statue, bad abandoned drawing from feeling herself dissatisfied with her per- formances, as compared with the works of real artists; reserved her musical taste entirely for the domestic circle, because she put too much soul into that delicious art to make it a mere amusement, and she was only saved from becoming a poetess by her almost exclu- sive devotion to the very great in poetry —to Wordsworth, to Milton and to Shakspeare. These tastes she very wisely kept to herself; but they gave a higher and firmer tone to her character and manners j and more than one peer when seated at Mr. Molesworth's hospitable table, has thought within himself how well his beautiful daughter would become a coronet.

Marriage, however, seemed little in her thoughts. Once or twice, indeed, her kind father had pressed on her the brilliant establishments that had offered;

but her sweet questions, " Are you tired of me ? do you wish me away i" hud gone straight to his heart, and put aside, for the moment, the ambition of his nature even in this, his beautiful child.

Of Jessy, with all her youthful attractions, he had always been less proud, and perhaps less fond. Besides, her destiny he had long in his own mind considered as decided. Charles Wood- ford, a young relation, brought up by his kindness, recently returned into his family from a great office in London, was a person on whom he had fixed for the husband of his youngest daughter, and for the immediate partner and eventual successor in his great and flourishing business ; a choice that seemed fully justified by the excellent conduct and remarkable talents of the orphan cousin, and by the apparently good understanding and mutual affection that subsisted between the young people

This arrangement was the .more agreeable to him, as providing munifi- cently for Jessy, it also allowed him the privilege of making, as in lawyer phrases he used to boast, " an elder-son" of Agnes, who would become one of the richest heiresses in the county. He had even in his own mind selected her future spouse, in the person of a young baronet who had lately been much at the house, and in favor of whose expected addresses, (for the proposal had not yet been made—the gentleman had gone no further than attentions,) he had determined to exert the paternal authority which had so long laid dormant.

But in the affairs of love, as in all others, man is born to disappointment. " L'homme propose et Dieu dispoie," is never truer than in the great matter of matrimony^ So found poor Mr. Moles- worth, who,—Jessy having arrived at the age of eighteen, Charles at the age of two and twenty,—offered his pretty daughter and the lucrative partnership to his penniless relation, and was petrified with indignation to find the connection very respectfully but firmly declined. The young man was very much distressed and agitated; he had the highest respect for Miss Jessy, but he could not marry her—he loved another! And then he poured forth a confidence as unexpected as it was un- desired hy his incensed patron, who left in undimiiiished wrath and iucreased perplexity.

This interview bad taken place immediately after breakfast; and when it was ended the provoked father sought his daughters, who, happily unconscious of all that had occurred, were amusing themselves in the splendid conservatory —a scene always as becoming as it is agreable to youth and beauty. Jessy was flitting about like a butterfly among fragrant orange trees and bright gera- niums. Agnes was standing under a fuschia that hung over a marble basin, her form, and attitude, her white dress and the classical arrangement of her dark hair, giving her the look of some nymph or naiad, a rare relic of the Gre- cian art. Jessy was prattling gaily, as she wandered about, of a concert _ she had attended the. evening before, at a country town.

" I hate concerts!" said the pretty little flirt. " To sit bolt upright on a hard bench for four long hours, between the same four people, without the possi- bility of moving, or of speaking to anybody, or of anybody's getting to us! oh how tiresome it is!"

" I saw sir Edmund trying to glide through the crowd to reach you," said Agnes a little archly ; " his presence would, I presume have mitigated the evil. But the barricade was too complete ; he was obliged to retreat without accomplishing his object.''

" Yes, I assure, you, he thought it very tiresome ; he told me so when we were coming But. And then the music 1" pursued Jessy; the noise they Called music!—Sir Edmund says he likes no music save the guitar, or a flute or the organ, and singing Handel on a Sunday evening, or Charles Woodford's reading Milton or bits of Hamlet."

" Do you call that mnsic V asked Agnes, laughing. " And yet," continued she, " it is most truly so, with his rich, Pastor-like voice, and his fine sense of sound; and to you who do not greatly love poetry for its own sake, it is doubtless a pleasure1 very much resembling in kind' the hearing the most thrilling of instruments. I myself have fell such a gratification in hearing him recite the verses of Homer or Sophocles in the original Greek. Charles Woodford's reading is music."

"It is music which you are neither of you likely to hear again," interrupted Mr. Molesworth, advancing suddenly towards them ; " for he has been ungrate- ful, and I have discarded him."

Agnes stood as if petrified. " Un- grateful! O, father I"

" You can't have discarded him, to bo sure, papa," said Jessy, always good natured ; " poor Charles 1 what can he have done?'*

" Refused your hand my child," said

the angry parent, " refused to be my partner and son-in-law, and .fallen in love with another young lady! What have vou to say for him now ?"

" \ hy, really, papa," replied Jessy, " I am much more obliged to him for re- fusing my hand than to you for offering it. I like Charles very well for a cousin, but I should not like such a husband at all; so that if this refusal be the worst that has Happened, there is no great harm: done." And off the gypsy ran, declaring that she must put on her habit, for she had promised to ride with Sir Edmund and his sister, and expected them every minute."

The father and daughter remained in the conservatory.

" That heart is untouched, however," said Mr. Molesworth, looking after her with a smile.

"Untouched by Charles Woodford, undoubtedly," said Agnes ; " but has he really refused my sister ?"

" Absolutely." " And does he love another ?" " He says so.; and I believe him." " Is he loved again." '• That he did not say.** " Did he tell you the name of the

lady r " Is she worthy of him V " Most worthy." " Has he any hope of gaining her af-

fections ? Oh! he must,* be must 1 what woman could refuse him ?"

" He has determined not to try. The lady whom he loves .is above him in every way; and much as he has coun- teracted my wishes, it is an honorable part of Charles Woodford's conduct that he intends to leave his affection unsus- pected by its object."

Here ensued a short pause in the dialogue, during which Agnes appeared to be collecting the blossoms of a Cape jessamine, and watering a favorite gera- nium, but it would not do; the subject was at his heart, and she could not force her mind to indifferent occupa- tions. She returned to her father, who had been anxionsly watching her motions, and the varying expressions of her countenance, and resumed the conversation.

" Father !" she said, " perhaps it Is hardly maiden-like to avow so much, but although you have never in set words told me your intentions, I have yet seen and known, I can hardly tell how, all that your kind partiality towards me has designed for your children. You have mistaken me, dearest father, doubly mistaken me; first, in thinking me fit to fill a splendid place in society; second, in imagining that I desired such splendor. You meant to give Jessy and the lucrative partnership -to Charles Woodford, and designed me and your large possessions to our titled neighbor. And with some little change of persons these arrangements may still, for the most part, hold good. Sir Edmund may still be your son-in- law, and your heir, for he loves Jessy, and Jessy loves him. Charles Wood- ford may still be your partner and your adopted son, for nothing has chanced that need diminish your affection or his merit. Marry him to the woman he loves. She must be ambitious indeed, if she be not content with her destiny. And let me live with you, dear father, single and unwedded, with no other thought but to contribute to your comfort, to cheer and brighten your declin- ing years. Do not let your too great fondness for me stand in the Way of their happiness. Muke me not so odi- ous to i hem and to myself, dear father. Pray let me live always with you and for you." And blushing at the earnestness with which she bad spoken, she bent her head ever the marble basin, whose water reflected her fair image, as if she had really been the Grecian

' statue, to which, whilst he listened, her fond f'ather'a fancy had compared her " Let me live single with you, and marry Charles to the woman whom he loves."

" Have you heard the name of the lady in question ? Have you formed any guess who she may be ?" "

" Not the slightest, I imagined from what you said, that she was a stranger to me. Have I ever seen her ?"

" You may see her reflection in the water at this very moment; for he had the infinite presumption, the admirable good taste, to fall in love with his cousin Agnes!"

•' Father!" " And now, Agnes, do you still wish

to live single with me ?" "Oh, father, father!" •■ Or do you wish me to marry Charles

to the woman of hisjieart P* It need not be told how, she was per-

suaded into this arrangement. So it was settled ; and a very few

OUR YOUNG MEN.

We have reason to fear that parents in the country have little knowledge of the numerous temptations to which the young are exposed in the city, else they would be more guarded in allowing them to leave their homes to go among strangers, unknown and uncared for by the throng; and we feel it our duty as a Christian and a fellow-being, to warn them of the wickedness to be encoun- tered, and to guard those thus exposed, and use our influence for their protection.

It is a /act, however much lamented, that there is a large class in our manufacturing towns, whose morals are corrupt, and who do not hesitate in leading unguarded youth from the path of virtue, and degrading them to a level with the brute. This class is always first in forming the acquaintance of the new comer. To them it is a pleasure to initiate the unwary in the secrets of their base and corrupt practices. All are not of this class. There are many noble men found; but being more select and reserved in their manner, are less forward in forming the acquaintance of strangers. The youth being naturally fond of company, join with those who appear most sociable. Here they take the first downward step, unconsciously, but none the less surely. Persons of a higher moral character judging by associations thus formed, leave the unfortu- nate youth to the mercy of the profli- gate. Is it strange that the young man thus surrounded should soon forget the instruction of kind parents, and the warnings of loving sisters ? He may at first shudder at the harsh sound of the fearful oath ; but it£soon becomes familiar to him. He is tempted by the poisoned cup — he falters — the vile demon urges—he yields, and is lost in the whirlpool of intemperance and its associate vices, and he rushes on to destruction.

Something is to be done to counter- act these evils. For this purpose, As- sociations have been formed in many of our larger towns. Their object is to help young men ujorfjfcicuring suitable boarding places and employment, in securing their attendance at some place of worship on.the Sabbath, and in in- troducing them to, and surrounding with, associates of correct habits and principles. This is the mission of the Young Men's Christian Association in our own city, and to some extent the plan has been carried out with good results. Christian brother, give the cause your aid and support. " Come with us and we will do you good."—Manchester (N. H.) American.

RELIGION IN FRANCE.

A correspondent of the New* of Churchei says:

It is often believed that we have here thirty-five million Catholics ; it would be nearer the truth to say that we have thirty-five million infidels. If I wished to give a more exact statement, I would say that one section of the population is infidel, and the other deiatical. In one section of the deistical there is one large party which expects nothing after this life, and another party who hope for a future existence ; but all those who believe in this future existence are per- suaded that they themselves" will be happy. The idea of eternal condemna- tion is completely absent; in every case no person thinks he has deserved it. The type of the French Catholic in our day, is somewhat of the following:

" I believe neither in the Pope nor the mass; I believe in one God, the Creator; perhaps there is also a future life; but in any case I am neither a murderer nor a thief; I am therefore certain not to be condemned to eternal punishment."

The literary man and tho govern ment, having no faith in the Romish system, look upon it as the most convenient bridle to hold the people, and therefore support it against all attacks from without. He fears that few among the clergy themselves have any pro- founder convictions.

walk the streets. On such occasions he would give me a history of his wander- ings, his trials, and all -cares incident to his sensitive nature and poveity.

"' How often," said he, once, " I have, been in the heart of Paris, Berlin and London, or other city, and beard persoas singing, or hand-organ playing, ' Home, Sweet Hone,' without having a shilling to buy the next meal or a place to lay my head. The world has literally sung my song until every heart is familiar with its melodies. Yet I have been a wanderer from my childhood. My country has turned me ruth- lessly from oflice, and in my old age I have to submit to humiliation for my bread.'

" Thus he would complain of his hapless lot. His only wish was to die in a foreign land, to be buried by strangers, and sleep in obscurity. Poor Payne, his wish was realized, He died at Tunis. His remains should be brought to this country, and a monument erected to nim by the homeless."

EFEECT OF MUSIC ON ANIMALS.

That music has a charm On the animal creation has long been known. The sense of hearing in many animals is very acute. They love to hear gentle voices, and are grateful for kind words. The tiny mouse is charmed by the whistle of the Alpine herdsman, will abide in his hut, and come from its cov- ert to listen to his song. In ancient times the grazing herds were charmed in listening to the flute of the shepherd. The bell cow is proud of her boll, and shows it in her gait as she leads off the herd, and shows grief when it is taken from her; and cattle have been known to pine away and die when deprived of their harmonious ornament. The horse is particularly charmed with music, for At the shrill trumpet's sound be pricks his ear. Many will remember the account of the Libyan mares, who would only be han- dled when soothed with soft music, and of the horses of Sybarites, that had been taught to dance to pleasant melodies ; and then, when bearing, their mas- ters into battle, suddenly heard, in the enemies ranks, the well-remembered sounds, and instantly set to dancing instead of fighting! The same love of music in the horse has been noted in more modern times. The eccentric Lord Holland, of the reign of William III., used to give his horses a weekly concert in n covered gallery, especially erected for the purpose. He maintained that it cheered their temper, and an eye- witness says that they seemed to be greatly delighted therewith.

Music is appreciated by the elephant in a remarkable degree. Sweet, gentle strains delight him, while loud, harsh notes, rouse his passions to uncontrolla- ble fury. The Arab entertains his camel with music, song and fairy tale, and with the plaintive tones of his voice. Birds are the true musicians of the animal kingdom. They have what many men lack, a genuine talent to learn and appreciate musical notes and melodies. You sing and they will re- peat, bar after bar; others listen with eager attention, to a hand-organ, and, little by little, learn whole tunes; the ablest of all even imitate the songs and views of others. ,t

THE AUTHOR OF SWEET HOME.— The following, from a newspaper of 185S, gives some interesting incidents in the life of the author of " Sweet Home."

ENTJOBSIKO NOTES.—The Knoxville Whig contains an editorial article upon the common practice of endorsing business notes, from which we give following paragraph:

" for our part, we have but a little of this world's goods, and our endorse- ment is worth nothing to any one. The business of endorsing we have entirely quit, and come what will, we will endorse no more for any one, as a matter of Accommodation. We have quit, too, for two and sufficient reasons. First, we have either been sued for, or had to pay, nearly all the notes we had to endorse for others ; «nd next, we have the vouchers to show we have paid more security debts than all we have now is worth in any market. Under these circumstances, if any one wishes to hear us say " no" with emphasis, let him ask us to endorse hjs note!

A JOKE ON MR. BROWN.—One of the ministerial papers in Canada, per- petrates the following joke at the expense of Mr. George Brown, editor of the Globe, and Opposition leader:—A ludicrous incident occurred at the Lon- don station of the Great Western Rail- way, recently. The trains going East and coming West generally arrive at the same time. A train left Windsor in the morning, conveying a body of the "Milwaukee Light Guard,"and a train arrived at the station conveying the. Hon. Geo. Brown. The people turned out to receive the military, but Mr. B. thought they bed come to welcome him ; he took off bis lint, and bowing to the assembled crowd was about to address them, when a loud hurrah for tho Wes- tern visitors dispelled the illusion 1

There are many things that are thorns to our hearts until we have attained them, and envenomed arrows when we have.

Some men think that the gratification of curiosity is the end* of knowledge; some the love of fame; some the pleasure of dispute ; some the necessity of supporting themselves by their knowledge ;—but the real use of knowledge is -this, that we should dedicate that reason which was given us by God to the use and advantage of men.

A doctor ordered one of his patients to drink Sedtitz-water; the patient expressed his disgttst by significant grim- mnccs. By way of consolation, his ad- viser told him it was only the first glass that was hard to drink. "Then," re-. joined llie invalid, " I will begin with the second."

Dr. tJcecher says, "Never chase n He. Let it alone, and it will run itself fodeath."

The Spartans were great enemies of much speaking. Certain orators camu from Sumos and made a long discourse to Cleomones. He said to them, " The first part of your speech I do not remember ; lite middle, therefore, I do not comprehend ; the conclusion 1 do not approve."

John Wesley says, "When I was young I was sure of everything; in a few years, having been mistaken a tl.o.i- satul limes, I was not half so sure as I was before; at present, I am hardly sure of anything but what God has re- vealed to man.''

An Irish lover has remarked that it is a great pleasure to be alone, especially when you have your swate-heart with you.

He that has energy enough in his constitution to root out a vice, should go a little further and try to plant a virtue in its place; otherwise he will have his labor to renew.

Annivsraary of Phillips Academy.

The anniversary exercises of this institution as announced in our last paper, commenced with the Anniversary of the Philomathe&n Society on Friday evening of last week. These exercises, although so much pro- longed as to become somewhat tedious, were well performed, ami evinced much care and mental discipline on the part of the young men concerned in them. The iioem by G. P. Stevens received much applause.

On Sunday afternoon Prof. Stowe preached the Baccalaureate Sermon. Ilia text was 1 John, iv. 16. Those who are accustomed to listen to the preaching of Prof. Siowu, need not be told that it was a plain, practical, earnest sermon, and well adapted to its purpose.

On Sunday evening the Anniversary of the Society of Inquiry was held. The Secre- tary's report showed that the Society has been in a very prosperous condition during the past year; the number of members having nearly doubled. The Society has two Sabbath Schools under its charge, in Abbott Village and in Scotland District. Extract! from the reports of the Superin- tendent of these schools, wero listened to with much interest. We were also much pleased with the President's address, especially on account of the earnest, fervent spirit which was manifested.

Tho music was furnished by a choir from Lawrence, and was well performed ; but we think not altogether adapted to the occasion. The hymn

' On the gloomy hills of darkness, Look, my soul! be still—and gaze," &c,

might have been sung with greater effect.

The examinations on Monday were very interesting and satisfactory, showing the efficiency and faithfulness of the teachers, and a good degree of diligence on the part of the scholars.

The concert on Monday evening was a decided success. The hall was completely tilled, and the music excellent. This very fine band is increasing in popularity continually, and will without doubt soon become what its accomplished leader is striv- ing to make it, the very best band in New England.

The examination of the Senior Class on Tuesday forenoon, although protracted and critical, was exceedingly satisfactory, and fully sustained the well-earned reputation of the institution for. thoroughness of instruction and wholesome discipline. At about half past eleven o'clock his Excellency (jrov. Banks entered the hall, and was welcomed by the enthusiastic applause of Young America, which was evidently acqui- et«ed in by the grave and venerable guardians and other friends of the school present. At the close of the examination his Excellency retired, amid cheers mingled with cries of " speech, speech," to which he made no other response than gracefully bowing in acknowledgment of his appreciation of the kind regards of this large class of young gentlemen who are hereafter to exert such a world-wide influence.

The public Exhibition of the graduating class, in the afternoon, was attended by an immense crowd of eager listeners, while a great many persons were unable to gain ad- mittance. The hall was beautifully trimmed, and over the stage was displayed the Class inolto—" Virtus in aclione."

ORIGINAL HYMN. BT MBS. JAHB D. CHAPLIN, EAST AIIINGTON.

Tho hour hath come,—the parting hour; , Yet how the sad " Farewell"

Lingers upon the trembling lip;— Grown boyhood's dying knell I

Then bless us, O our f iends to-day, With words of lofty cheer;

As through the future's unknown paths Each seeks hit chosen sphere.

To strike the anvil, guide the plough, The statesman's power to wield;

Or, patriot-like, to carve our names Upon our country's shield ;

Or, nobler still, to rally where The Saviour's banners fly j

. To bear the blood-stained cross afar, And win a crown on high.

This golden year hath showered her days Like gems, with lavish hand,

Nor called us once 'ncath willow-tree By open grave to stand ;

No glad young eye, no bounding heart Death-touched, hath passed away ;

Gaze on our brother-hand, O friends 1 We are all here to-day.

We part; oh I may we meet again, Where skies are ever fair,—

Old Phillips' sons of fifty-nine,— Nor one be missing there:

Then shall we clasp these hands again, These golden cords unite,

And dwell together, toiling still. On the broad fields of light.

BENEDICTION.

The graduates participating in the exercises sustained their several appointments remarkably well, and Qihnore's Band inter- speised their choicest airs at appropriate in- tervals. Of the different parts it would be difficult to speak with justice in so short space as our columns will allow ; but the Valedictory was certainly o. vory etioiuo and

finely written pieco, full of deep thought and earnest feeling. The Salutatory was vory gracefully delivered, and many of the Orations deserve especial attention did our space permit it.

Besides his Excellency Gov. Banks, and the Board of Trustees, we noticed on the platform the venerable father of the Princi- pal of the Acadomy—now about eighty years of age,—Judge Stevens of Lawrence, Hon. Messrs. Mixter of Ilardwick, Jackson of Newark, N. J., Boltwood of Amherst, Southworth of West Springfield, Rev. Dr. J. P. Thompson of New York, and other gentlemen of distinction from abroad.

We learn that one gentleman came to the con -lusion that either there were too many people present, or that the hall was too small,—a decision which we readily endorse. We hope that it may be found con. venient in future to hold these exercises in a more spacious building.

ID giving the names of the graduates resident in this town, in our last paper, we accidentally omitted tbe name of Jamet O.

Treat. In tbe evening the Class partook of the

Class Supper, at the Mansion House. Tho

services of our friend J. II. Slannard of Lawrence, (who has gained a fine reputation as a caterer, and who is regarded as indispensable by any company in this vicinity who desire a good meal,) were secured) and all passed off with great eclat.

After the supper the Principal and others were serenaded by the Class, accompanied by the Band.

We think that the friends of the school, in reviewing the past year, must feel a good degree of satisfaction. The eminent suc- «ess of the present corps of teachers; the general orderly conduct of the students; and, more than all, the strong religious influence which has existed, and the frequent revivals with which it has been visited, must be indeed cheering to all solicitious for the the welfare and prosperity of the institution. We very much doubt if there is another academy in New England, in which so large a proportion of the students are young men of fervent and devoted piety. During each year, for many years, this number has been largely increased by conversions.

_ Among the pleasant things which we have to record, is the presentation of an elegant gold watch and chain by the Senior Class to Mrs. Taylor. The present was a valuable one, and was received with expressions of deep gratitude. Also tbe presentation by the Second Middle Class of a watch and chain to their teacher, N. Dana Wells. The watch is from the manufactory of Ap- pleton, Tracy & Co., at Waltham, and is of a very beautiful and unique design. It bears the inscription, " Presented to their teacher, Mr. N. Dana Wells, by the Second Middle Class of Phillips Academy, Andover, Mass., July 25, 1859." Mr. Wells has resigned his situation, and is to enter the legal profession.

FUNCHABD FBEE SCHOOL.—The annual examination of this school took place on Friday of last week, and was attended by a large number of spectators. The recitations throughout exhibited marked thoroughness. The pupils seemed exceedingly well drilled in the studies in which they were examined, and possessed a greater share of self-reliance than is usually found in such schools. We hesitate not to say, judging from the examination, that tbe Punchard Free School is destined to become a great blessing to this community. The foundation is laid—the work is begun—and with tbe sympathy and co-operation of the people, great good cannot fail to he accomV plished. \)

The following graduates received their diplomas, Viz: TOsrJslcal Course—William F. Merrill. English Course—Charlotte H. Abbott, Laura A. Bailey, Adelaide May- berry, George E. Chickering, Charles H. Marland, Reuben A. Rowley.

Assistant teacher for the next term, in place of Miss Bailey, Miss Harriett J. Eaton, of Grolon.

TIIE WAS NEWS.—Since our last issue very interesting and unexpected news has been received from the seat of war. First, of an armistice between the contending armies, and then of an actual proclamation of peace. The two Emperors, of France and Austria, met on the 11th-of July, and agreed upon a basis of permanent peace. This was the result of a letter from the Em- peror of France to the Emperor of Austria, and a friendly reply. Doubtless Napoleon was convinced that a cessation of hostilities would be very convenient to him if not ac- tually necessary. He therefore wroto Francis Joseph, regretting the necessity the found himself under of bombarding Venice, and inquiring if nothing could be done to avert this dire calamity; thus affording respectable excuse for an overture and a decent pretext to the vanquished. In his proclamation to the array, Napoleon speaks of the contest being ended, " because it was about to assume proportions no longer in keeping with the interests that France had in this formidable war." Letters from Paris assert much discontent in regard to the results of the war and the terms of peace. There was much doubt in regard to the position of Garibaldi. Napoleon is en route for Paris.

GREAT SALE IN LAWRENCE. — On Thursday of last week there was an extensive sale of the Lawrence Machine Shop and other property in the city of Lawrence belonging to the Essex Company, which drew quite a large number of capitalists together, including a delegation of over fifty business men of Boston. Sam'l Hatch of Boston acted as auctioneer. The property disposed of included fifty houses, besides the machine works, and is said to have cost over $1,000,000; and although it only brought $168,950, the sellers were evidently quite well satisfied with the result.

Work in the machine shop has been suspended for several years past. It is not known with certainty what business will be transacted there hereafter; but it is suggested that the United States Government design securing the property, to be used as an armory.

THE HAY SEASON.—The farmers in this vicinity have thus far been favored with good weather for hay making. Since the fourth of July there has been a large proportion of sunny days, and when rain has fallen it has failed to cause much damage to the crop, so immediately has it been followed by sunshine. The quantity of grass, however, is not more than the average, having suffered severely from tbe ice that rested upon it during the winter. Some fields exhibit large patches in which the grass was entirely destroyed by tbe ice; in others it it but partially injured, and there are very few which have wholly escaped.. Our fanners say that while a bed of snow lying on the grass all winter is equal to a good top dressing of manure, a sheet of ice is worse than open exposure to alternate cold and thaw.

ANDOVEB POLICE COUBT RECOBD.— Monday, July 25th, Dennis Kehoe of Bal- lard Vale, was brought before Justice Mer- rill, charged with being drunk on Sunday. The charge wat fully proved by the testimony, and a fine of two dollars and costs was imposed—whole amount, $9.78.

Police officer Samuel G. Bean, arrested Kehoe in the gutter on Sunday afternoon^ and put him in charge of a keeper, while he procured fi horse aud carriage to convey him to the lock-up. During the absence of the officer, the fellow struck the keeper without the least provocation. Resisting an officer, or persons employed by him in the discharge of his duty, is a serious offence, and it is high time for people to understand that they cannot do it with impunity.

Miss Florence Nightingale is so extremely ill that the worst results are apprehended. Her strength is diminishing sadly.

Hon. F. P. Blair, Jr., is spending ,the season at Gloucester. His family are with him.

Probate Court at Satem next Tuesday, Aug. 2d.

his fathers, and holding in hit inmost heart a picture of that distant home, half unconsciously framed his new one after its well- remembered fashion. Nor were its privileges forgotten. The children were gathered into the school-room with jealous care, and in the midst of the settlement, high over all — over all its dwellings full of anxious and busy life, of human hopes and disapiwintments./oys add sorrows—rose the church spire, pointing its steadfast finger toward that Heaven in which it warned them to rest all their hopes, and garner all their treasure.

And so the years pasted. The spot, strange at first, had grown familiar, home- like, and sacred to them. Year by year they had driven their furrows deep into the fields; year by year Time had written Aw upon their brows. The rain of heaven bad refreshed, and the sun ripened their har- vests, and in the crushed soil of their hearts had been growing a riper and richer harvest, which shall not be gathered into earthly store-houses. Year by year they had gathered their ripened grain with thankful hearts; year by year, no lest certainly and surely, hail the sheaves been gathered by another reaper—one who takes the buds and flowers, as well as the ripened fruit.

And now, in the heart of one, the founder of the settlement, there arose an earnest desire to go home. He had left that home in the full strength of early manhood ; now he was an old man, suriounded by children and children's children. Knowing that Time had so altered him, he could not but expect to find the same changes elsewhere. Many of those who had bidden him farewell, vjere no longer living to greet his re turn. Long ago, some of them, worn out with grief and veal's, hatl gladly laid down the cross in exchange for I he crown. Some, in the full career of honorable and useful life, had suddenly found themselves face to face with the stern messenger. One, very near and very dear to him, grown into the full stature of Christian womanhood, old in years, but young in courage, and faith, and charity, had received a swift summons to the home to which she was willing and glad to go, even though the summons brought with it a trial-proof of the constancy and patience which sustained itself triumphantly through all the agony of those last hotfrs.

Was it strange that, while he clasped hands in joyful greeting with those who yet remained, he desired also to look for a last time upon the resting place of those who had gone before ? The hand of Time bad also been busy there. One stone, the oldest of all, placed by a venerable ancestor over the remains of one dearest to himself in life, still stood erect and firm. It had been well chosen, of goodly and costly material, while his own, planted in later years by a less careful and affectionate hand, already showed signs of the change and de- cay which falls on all things earthly. Some graves were yet nameless. He took upon himself the charge of them all; carefully defended them all from careless and idle feet, and reared stones over the resting- places of those who were yet unbonored and unnamed in that ■ city of the dead." When all was done, he turned again toward tho borne of his adoption. With filial love and piety and reverence, had he set in order the ancestral graves of his household,—be might never see them again. He himself expected to sleep in a distant churchyard ; in a village which we know was founded by bis enterprise, sustained by his industry and blessed by his example. When that village shall have grown into a city, and in turn sends forth its children to people and blest the land, they will carry with them the memory of his earnest and useful life, until the quiet influence which he and many other like men are exerting in that far West shall overspread the whole country,

_pcrmeated by there descendants. Their influence is eternal; their lessons of filial love and reverence will go down from generation te- generation, a sacred heritage, hand from lather to child; and, when at last—

" Their names with the moss o'ergrown Are veiled from sight on the churchyard stone, That leans away in a lingering fall, And owns the power that shall level all The works of man, that his hand hath wrought, Bring him to dust, and his name to naught,"

even then, the tidal wave of good and happy influence, shall flow onward through all ages of time, till it washes the shores of eternity, in that day when the angel of Apocalyptic vision, standing upon sea and earth, shall swear that " there shall be time no longer." WOOD.

THK EMIGRANT'S HOME.—We never forget our home. It it an old subject, of which much has been said, because much hat been felt, and if the phrases which cx- Eress our attachment and veneration for it

ave grown trite and familiar because of oft repetition, yet the feeling which those words express is always warm and fresh in our hearts, even though it may be tor a time bidden and chilled by tbe harry and turmoil of life, as the evergreen mosses in our fields are sometimes frozen beneath the transient snow and ice of a stormy winter.

Not many months ago, we welcomed among ut an emigrant who for years had been a stranger from the home of hit fathers. They had been years of patient toil anil perseverance, and cheerful content. In that time the western solitude where he had made for himself a home, had grown into a " place of habitations," a quiet and peace- ful settlement, undisturbed by sounds of vi- olence or dissipation; for be whose own life was to be spent there, and whose children were there to be educated, could ill afford for the sake of silver or gold, to part with an inch of land to any other than honest and faithful men. One by one, such, and only such, gathered into the settlement. The prairie stillness was broken by sounds of human labor. Morning greetings and evening salutations were heard in the streets. The wild game started from their home, fled farther towards the sunset, away from the great waste aad solitude, into which had suddenly come the breath of civilized human life. Henceforth its dramas were to be acted on this untried scene. Tbe hearts of those men, strong and fearless though they were, were yet linked together by a close and holy bond of sympathy. Every one was a stranger from the home of

ESSEX, July 25, 1859. Messrs. Editors:—In a peculiar manner

we feel the general gloom occasioned by the death of the Hon. Kufus Chcate. This is his birth-place—the home of his boyhood. He always loved it, and visited it as often as business would allow. In the old mansion on " Hog Island," is a room he always called his own, from#rhieh he could look out upon our smooth and carving river, and the open sea beyond. In that mansion he was born. Our citizens remember and love him. He was always glad .to meet the friends of his boyhood in after life, and none have rejoiced at his success more than his old school-fellows. When we heard of his death, the church bell tolled the sad news. The same bell which called his boyish feet to church and Sabbath school. His only remaining brother (the Hon. David Choate) resdet in this town. In the new cemetery in Essex, are the bones of his father, and the remains of two members of his own family—both daughters. Brothers and sisters lie here, too, who preceded him across the dark river.

Only once, and that many years ago, did he address the people of his native town. He has made several attempts, but business or health prevented. O. H.

THE LIVER PILLS, For the cure of LIVER COMPLAINTS,

Their unprecedented popularity has induced the proprietors,

ground in the tame way, repeating the operation as often as a nest can be found. In this way an orchard may be preserved without expense, save a little leisure time, which any farmer may find if so disposed.

Now if these lines should be the means of saving a single Iree, the writer will deem himself amply rewarded. N. H. Journal of Agriculture.

^jricultnre ;urif$)tuliniltiue. •I is Empbjisait tht nakn |!B People hippy."... FJUL'I Webster.

GENERAL IMPORTANCE OF AORICtTLITrRE. Every reflecting man recognizes the

nature, and admits the value of agriculture ; yet every such mint is not himself a farmer, nor can he conveniently become one—the lots of many being •a.-t in oilier departments of labor.

Probably there are more who would cultivate farms, if they were fortunate enough to possess them, than there are who, possessing them would forsake them for a vocation less stable. Age, with its wisdom, likes the tarm better than youth with its too frequent vain show and empty aspirations.

If it be true, as Montesquieu observes, that " countries are not cultivated in proportion to their fertility, but to their liberty," then republican America must Boon rank second to no other nation in

.her perfection of terrn-culture. Our agricultural population may not directly lead or control the country, yet they hold the truest sword in defence; and in the heat of any contest will imbibe new courage from the recollection of their pleasant and enduring fields at home.

1 desire to present some thoughts upon this subject, iu the form of distinct prop- ositions.

1. As the roots and trunk of a tree are to its branches, so is agriculture to society; it upholds it, and draws from the earth and dispenses its nourishment to the different branches of the social fabric, while at the same time it derives new vigor from a vital reciprocity. Hence

2. Agriculture is the foundation of a well established nation, and the most stable1 element of its wealth, independence, and greatness. Therefore

3. Agriculture should receive the fos- tering cure of the state, and the respect and encouragement of every patriot.

4. Every farmer, to prosecute his business successfully, should feel and cherish an ambit ion in it, and a convic- tion that he is just the man for it; and, however unlettered he may be, under such incentives he will make great progress, not only in the profitable cultivation of his farm, but also in mental improvement. If he has not the stimulus of emulation, he should choose a business where he may be thus prompted, as agriculture can well spare the ' sloth- ful in business."

5. Although farmers as a body may never expect to become erudite scholars, each and every one would be greatly beuufilted by n small library of standard and miscellaneous books. They are faithful companions that always in- struct and elevate.

6. If it be the " mind that makes? the man," it is not alone in its intellectual phrase, but also in its moral. Every farmer who chooses, can attain to a degree of intellectual culture, and to a moral standard second to none. He can and ought to make himself the " highest style of man."

7. Although—in their well-being, vo- cations are mutually dependent, to a greater or less degree, the farmer should never mistrust the value of his profession, but should defend its dignity and worth by a commensurate independence before all men.— Genesee Farmer.

BRUISING APPLES.—-The Working Farmer says, in speaking of the great success of K. L. Pell, and the high price he get* in foreign markets : " Mr. Pell has made a thumb dent in an apple occasionally, and after tying a label to the stem, placed the apples so dented in the centre of a barrel of sound apples, requesting his agent in England to report the result. The report has always been, that more than half of such apples have been found decayed. How absurd to club or shake apples from a tree, or even to tumble them by basketful*, when picked by hand into barrels."

How TO DESTROY CATERPILLARS. Permit me, briefly, to tell the readers of the Journal the best way to destroy caterpillars. Wash them off the tree with soap-suds; and if any live through the operation, they will fall with the nest, and may be easily crushed on the ground. This has been my practice for years, and always with good success. The sooner after the eggs are all hatch- ed, the more speedily may the work be done. It is, however, an easy matter to clear an orchard after the insects are half or two-thirds grown. I have generally taken suds that had been used for washing; and sometimes when I had none on hand, I have taken a pail of hot water, and put in ashes enough to make a weak ley, and used that with equal success.

To apply the wash, make a swab of a woolen rag tied on the end of a light pole, long enough to reach the tops of the trees. Then take a pail of suds or ley, and with swab in hand, examine ©very tree; when the insects «re all in their nests, apply the swab, dripping from the pail, to the limb over the nest, and rub it gently downward; thf whole nest with, all its inhabitants will slip from the limb and fall to the ground. If any should be out of the nest, and thus escape and build anew, go over the

Ayer's Sarsaparilla, A compound remedy, in which we have labored to produce the most effectual alterative that can be made. It is a concentrated extract of Para Sarsaparilla, so combined with other substances of still greater alterative power as to afford an effective antidote for the diseases Sarsaparilla is reputed to cure. It is believed that such a remedy is wanted by those who suffer from Sim- mons complaints, and that one which will accomplish their care mast prove of immense service to this large class of our afflicted fellow- citizens. How completely, this conitxrand will do it has been proven by experiment on many of the worst cases to bo found of tlio following complaints:

SCROFULA AJtD ScROFULOL'3 CoXr-LAIHI*, ERUPTIONS AND EUUI'TIVE DISEASES, UL- CERS, PIMPLES, BLOTCHES, TUMORS, SALT RIIEUH, SCALD HEAD, SYPHILIS AND Sxrni- LITIO AFFECTIONS, MERCURIAL DISEASE,

DHOPST, NEVRALOIA OH TIC DOULOUREAUX, DEBJLITT, DYSPEPSIA ,AND INDIGESTION, ERYSIPELAS, ROSE, OR ST. ANTHONY', FIRE, and indeed the whole class of complaints arising from IMPURITY or THE BLOOD. .

This compound will be found a great pro- moter of health, when taken in the spring, to ex- pel the foal humors which fester in the blood at that season of tire year. By the timely expul- sion of them many rankling disorders arc nipped in the bud. Multitudes can, by the aid of this remedy, spare themselves from the endurance of foul eruptions and ulcerous sores, through which the system will strive to rid itself of corruptions, if not assisted to do this through the natural channels of tho body by an alterative medicine. Cleanse ont the vitiated blood whenever yon find its impurities bursting through the skin in pimples, eruptions, or sores; cleanse it when you find it is obstructed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it whenever it is foul, and your toolings will tell yon when. Even where no particular disorder is felt, people enjoy better health, and live longer, for cleansing the blood. Keep the blood healthy, and all is well; but with this pabulum of life disordered, there can be no lasting health. Sooner or later something must go wrong, and the great machinery of life is disordered or overthrown.

Sarsaparilla has, and deserves much, the reputation of accomplishing these ends. But the world has been egrogiously deceived by preparations of it, partly because the drug alone has not all the virtue that is claimed for it. but more because many preparations, pretending to be concentrated extracts of it, contain but little of the virtue of Sarsaparilla, or any thing else.

During late years the public havo been misled bv large bottles, pretending to give a quart of Extract of Sarsaparilla for one dollar. Most of these have been frauds apon tho sick, for they not only contain little, if any, Sarsaparilla, but often no curative properties whatever. Hence, bitter and painful disappointment has followed the use of tho various extracts of Sarsaparilla which flood tito market, until the name itself is justly despised, and has become synonymous with imposition and cheat. Still we call this compound Sarsaparilla, and intend to supply Such a remedy as shall rescue the name from the load of obloquy which rests upon, it And we think we have ground for believing it has virtues which are irresistible by the ordinary run of the diseases it is intended to cure. In order to secure their complete eradication from the system, tho remedy should be judiciously token according to directions on the bottle.

AND, AT PRESENT H. M.*S DIRECTOR or THE

INSTITUTE or CHEMICAL INVESTIGATION, &C.,

DO hereby certify, that at the request of the house of Gottig & Will, of tbjs place, I have made an an- alyticul examination of U. Wolfe's Aromatic Schie- dam Schnapps, with the object of ascertaining if it contained any substance noxious to health, and to inform them as to its true composition and relative quality with the other gins that are offered in the market, and the results of my observations and experiments are as follows:

«#l* dulpho W ol fe's Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps is a spirituous liquid, of a very agreeable aromatic odor, completely transparent and almost colorless, having only a very slight tint of yellowish-gray; Its flavor is strong, and very agreeable to the palate. It marks 20 degrees In Cartier's alcohol weigher, or 62 degrees 6 hundredths in Gay Lussac's alcohometer. By the distillation In a balalum marla, with an apparatus consisting of a glass retort and a recipient surrounded with ice, I have collected in this recipient an alcoholic liquid with a very agreeable aroma, completely colorless and transparent, which marked 90 degrees In Cartier's alcoholic weigher, or 70 degrees 6 hundredths on Gay Lussac's alcohometer; and which represented, as a whole, 67 per cent of Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps subject to distillation in the retort. This liquid did not soil the transpar- ency of the distilled water in mixing it with the en me, and its agreeable aroma is doubtless due to a very trifling amount of an essential oil inseparable from alcohol.

From the remainder of the distillation which was left In the retort, I have obtained, through evaporation in a vapor bath, a substance of a yellowish- brown color, clear, and having a bitter taste which Is not disagreeable, and which afterwards becomes aromatic, and leaves the mouth perfumed with that fragrance peculiar to the vanilla. 1 am inclined to believe that to this bitter and aromatic extractive substance, soluble In water and alcohol, the medicinal properties which are attributed to this gin are due. I have not found In Udolpho Wolfe's Aroma- tic Schiedam Schnapps any mineral or organic substance other than the extractive one already named, and the aromatic one obtained by distillation. Finally, Udolpho Wolfe's Aromatic Schie- dam Schnapps consists simply of an aromatic alcohol of 20 degrees of graduation in Cartier's alcoholic weigher, and of an extractive bitter aromatic substance, which, perhaps, Is medicinal; and on account of its not containing any matter injurious to the health, as well as for Its odor and good flavor, — a fact which no doubt arises from the choice sub. etancw employed In Its manufacture, and from the peculiar manner of its distillation,— it should, In my opinion, be preferred to all the Holland, Belgte, aud German gins which are found in this island which it has been my business to examine. These gins, as 1 have often proved it, exhale a disagreeable odor, and have a more or less disagreeable flavor, some of them having left, as was the case with the superior gin from the distillery of Mr. Henry Deetjen (of Bremen), as resldum, after evaporation by steam, a substance almost Insipid, and very trifltngly aromatic, with flavor of vanilla, but in nowise with the delicious bitter and aromatic flavor of that of Udolpho Wolfe; and others, suoh as that labelled "Genuine Samaritan," "Extra Superior," Messrs Traoher, have furnished me ■ very small quantity of a greenish substance, of harsh, metallic taste, and vary diaagreeable; which extractive organic matter was Bilked with a salt of copper, with signs of iron, owiug, perhaps, to a bad system of distillation.

I certify that all that is here stated is the truth, and agrees with the experiments I have made with the greatest care; and I nuthorlze the house of Got- tig and Will, of this city, to give publicity to this certificate, In Spanish and In foreign language*, In all countries where it may suit their interest to do
