Suddenly a bright gleam from tho grass below, flashes across its vision— alarmed and fascinated, its wings lofuso to perform their offico, and it soon falls to the ourth, a prey to its venomous clmrmor.

So a word spoken in season, an appealing look, an act of kindness will often awaken a young man to tho.danger which in thojrarbof pleasure woos him to destruction.

A French amateur, In tho Paris Hor ticultural Review states: “About a v <5ftr ago, I made a bargain for a rosubusli of magiiiftc.ent growth, and full of buds. I waited To? tlwrn to bloom, and I expoctod roses wortfiy cf such a noble plant, and ot the praise be stowed upon it by tlio vendor. At length when it bloomed, all my hopes wern blasted. Tho Howors were of n faded color, and 1 discovered that I had only a middling multitlora stnlo colored enough. I, therefore, resolved to sac rifice b to somo experiments which I had in view. My attention had boon captivated with the effects of charcoal, as stated in some English publications. I then covered tho earth (in tho pot in which my rosebush was) about half an inch deep with pulverized charcoal.— Some days aftor, I was astonished to sots tho ros**s which bloomed, of as flno alivoly rose color us I could wish. I de termined to repeat tho experiment, and therefore, when tho roso bush had done flowering, I took off tho charcoal ami put fresh earth on tho pot. You may conceive that I waited forthonoxt spring impatiently to soo the rasuit of this ex periment. When it bloomed, tlio roses wore ns nt first palo and discolored; but by applying charcoal as before, they soon resumed their rosy red color. I tried the powdered charcoal likewise In large quantities upon petunias, and found tuutboth the white and violet flowers were equally scnsil>lo to its ac tion.

According to our view, tho true antag onism hot ween the United States and Great Britain exists between the North and that country. Tho uinmifucturing and commercial interests uf the North enter into competition with British in terest* of the same kind, and under thn system of Protective Tariffs and Ship ping-Bounties tho rivalry redounds to tho benefit of the North and tint disad- ant age of Great Britain. The South is the customer, for whose custom and business both compote. Doubtless there are many blind «ti«l ruthless fan atics enlistod in tho cause of abolition in Great Britain ns there arc at tho North. Doubtless there aro cold-blood- od calculators amongst tho statesmen of that country, who, having wretchedly failed in their estimate of African char acter and their effort to multiply the tropical productions of her Wost Indian Colonies by tlio supposed stimulus of fiecing the slavos, now desire to bring the rival States or the South to the same level of unproductivenoHs, accom panied by a docrua.se of relntivo power and independence. With these classes, of courso, abolition nml the ruin of tlio South are tho ends sought. But tho real, controlling statesman of Groat Britain have moro practical and larger views than th«*se. They uso this ques tion with a view to practical intcresU chiefly. They edge on Northorn people to their own ruin and the bonefit or Britain. It is done with a selfish pur pose and to accomplish an end—a sepa ration of tho manufacturing ntid com mercial North from tho agricultural South. Tho interests of tho South and and Great Britain aro mutual and coin cident. She wants our cotton, rice, to bacco, Ac., for her own use, and sho wants to sell us in exchange tho manu factured goods wo want, and to havo tho carrying trade lor her shipplng.-r As matters stand now, through the Navigation and Tariff Laws, tho nioper relation of natural and profitable cus tomers is Interrupted. British goods and British shipping are to a grout ex tent prohibited by the taxes required.— Thu South is compelled to consumo Northern commodities and to use Northern shinping at higher prices than «be could with free trado. Tho South pays a tribute to tho North. England is deprived, to n considerable extent, of her bust customer. She has, therefore, striven to bring about a state of nlienn- tionLctwi-on the sections of the United •States, llor statesmen havo seized the very convenient slavery question, and used it. to separate the North and the •South, nml supplant the North in busi ness with us, either by a preference ac corded to hor, nr hi open competition in such an ovunt. Her policy progresses to success, and must damage or destroy tlio commercial and manufacturing prosperity of tlio North, now readied through the unequal bond of tho Un ion, and nt the expense of the South.— It must result greatly to the advantage of British interests, Tho*o views con stitute tho real spur to tho intermed dling of Englishmen, and this, as wo un derstand it, is tho game of their saga cious and praaticai statesmen.
