De Tocqueville, in his work on '‘Democracy in America,” ob serves that the habit of inattention must be considered the greatest bane of llte democratic character. And as inattention and want of applica tion in mniu-rs of thought generate a superficial and unreliable condi tion of the intellect, so, i* - like man ner, may the integrity of our affec tions be endangered by improper cultivation. No one can fail to no tice, as characteristic of our social life, the extreme facility with which persons pass from one experience in affection to another. The apparent want ol injury to the individual in these rapid passages from on** affec tion to another can only be account ed for on the supposition that the af fection was of the most shallow and delusive nature. The tendencies of fashionable society are toward the fostering ol the most transient and inefficient ties of affection. It has been said that great passions no longer show themselves. And cer tain it is that shallowness and vacil lation, waul of depth and of faith fulness, are the properties which most completely characterize our conduct of life with regard to the affections. The irfluence of our intellectual habits on our affections may be traced in this matter. We are so inconstant in our opinions and be- considering, our conduct is to often controlled by mere “gross sense and custom,” rather than by enlightened views of our nature and our duty. W e should elevate our conceptions of duty by elevating our sympa thies. Our affections should not de scend lo low and trivial aims, but should quicken our thoughts and re fine our sentiments. The tendencj' of our social habits is to make us miserably superficial in thought and in feeling. There is no dignity, no culture in our “modern society,” that has its permanent influence. All is in motion without definable aim. In our conduct with regard to our affections, it appears to me that we should resist this constant motion and seek to cultivate perma nence in our affections. No degree of talent or accomplishment can do away with the necessity for ibis quality. Let us chetish those affec tions we have as “light-bringers,” that shall not fail to help us in the earnestness of life. The cultivation of permanence in those affections which are well founded within us has a most^eneficent influence on the character. It makes us more sin cere and more conscientious—brings a dignity and thoughtfulness is our conduct that we can ill spare. No worthy character can a man lorm for himself without anchoring his affections, and that worthily! To be given up to the charm of sue liefs, all our intellectual conclusions cess,on in lJ,ese matters, is to have lie so much at the mercy of change, en j e ^ ec ^ upon that dissipation oi ‘ftttatrLPi4 r -at-*£cLU± ) bxubdob VULB, a A , vol mTncsa ran aksths momra coranxs. jy Applications for Homestead Exenip tions under the new law, aud other businesi before the Court of Ordinary, will recem proper attention. P Janxary 1 1871. ly- and we so quickly pass from one ob ject of thought to another, that the habit of the intellect is transferred to the affections with results the character of which admits of but little doubt. The evils of this in constancy, this facility of change in the objects of the affections, are sad enough through the course of a life 1 * lime. He who has no deep and last ing affeclions has never known the capacities of his own nature nor sounded tfie depths of sympathy in others. The depth and force of character which in general belong to the man who has strong affeclions, is in striking contrast with the weak ness of the opposite. This tenden cy toward weakness and inconstan cy in affection, it were lolly to assert as possessing every mind, ytt such f ^ Xon r <v9. *v of training and culture, that its in fluence extends to the best minds among us, vitiating the spirit and force of our feelings. Intellectual growth presupposes a succession of objects, and the ability to pass quickly from one object of thought to another. But at the same time nothing of strong import can be ac complished without concentration. The culture which we receive as men and w omen of the world is tru ly wonderful. The multiplicity and variety of the objects which claim our attention generate an adroit and superficial state of mi.id, which is apparently on every hand. “Our system of education fosters restless ness”—“the traveling of the mind.” This traveling of the mind, this constant presence of the desire for change, we recognize as having its influence not only on our intellectual life, but also on our affections. The habit of patient attention, of concentration, is rarely to be noticed; and, therefore, instead of accuracy and depth in our mental convictions, we have that superficiality of knowl edge and inconstancy of beliefWhich has its perfect analogy in the want of permanence and faithfulness in af fection, that we are considering. Among the dissatisfactions arising from inconstancy, from a succession in the object of our affections, the greatest is the inability at last to thoroughly fix the affections at all. Such an experience corrupts the man’s whole exislence. He has wasted his substance in insincere and improvident living, and hence forth shall go through the world without tasting of the diviner depths of human affection. There is no doubt that the highest affections are of gradual formation—-are a growth of lime. If we are impa tient, and would have the fruit before the flower has well gone, we shall never possess ourselves of the highest experience in these things. The final results on the rhaiacter of a person, the object of whose af fections are constantly changing, is apparent. It is simply to fill him with jiolish°d insincerity. And as there is in himself the want of truth, of reality, so that he may not trust in his own feelings, he comes at last to disbelieve in the reality of the af fections of others. As a man bro ken down of excess may not trust his bodiiy senses, so trusts he not his own heaitor that of others. As in the action of the intellect there may be a reckless squandering of mental ibrce, so also there may be in our af fections ; and the injury to heallhful- uess of action is as unavoidable in the latter case as in the former In such things as we have been mind and heart which shall inevita bly end in impotence of character, out of the darkness of which scarce ly any light of moral principal will be seen to emerge.—j. a. u. in Phre nological Journal. Herr Mohr, a German traveler in Eastern Africa, has written a de scription of the Victor ia Falls, on the Zambesi river, from which it would appear that these falls are, in some respects, superior to those of Niagara.

Guelph and Campbell.—The Prince of Wales and the Marquis of Lome are evidently not on good terms, if we may judge from the fol lowing, which appeared in the Dundee Advertiser, which paper had it from its London correspondent: “A curious story is in circulation with regard to the relations of the Marquis of Lome and the Princess Louise to the other members of the royal family. I believe that at the Duke of Sutherland’s banquet to the Russian Grand Duke, now in this country, the Marquis and Princess were treated as members of the royal family. The Prince of Wales, how ever, will not accept this view of the position, and at the State ball the other night gave orders that the Mar quis should not be admitted at the royal entrance. He was according ly refused admittance, and the Prin cess declined to enter except with her husband, saying that her place was where he was. The Marquis would not take the Princess in by the general public entrance, and the result was that they did not ft tend the ball. The circumstance has caused a good deal of talk in the up per circles.” Ad vice from Spurgeon.—No body is more like au honest man than a thorough rogue. When you see a man with a great deal of religion displayed in his shop window, you may depend up on it he keeps a very smali stock of it within. Do not choose your friend by his looks : handsome shoes often pinch the feet. Don’t believe the man who talks the most, for mewing cats are very seldom good mousers. By no means put yourselves in another persons power; if you put your thumb between two grinders, they are very apt to bite. Drink nothing without seeing it; sign nothing without reading it and make sure that it means no more than it says. Don’t go to law unless you have nothing to lose ; lawyer’s houses are built on fools’ heads. In any business never wade into water where you cannot see the bot tom.

Memphis, July 21.—The following ap pears in the Avalanche : “Before and since my arrival in Mem phis, this day, my attention has been called to a slanderous article in cer tain Radical newspapers which at tack my private character, in connec tion with a lady who, it is freely stated, was traveling under noy charge. It ia deemed due go myself, as well as my personal lrietnds, to state unequivocally and without delay, the story in tbe whole and in all its essential parts is unmistakably the instigation of malice, and I hereby pronounce it utterly false.” (Signed] Jefferson Davis. It is scarcely necessary for Mr. Davis to notice a slander which nobody, not even his decent enemies believed. The New Orleans Times thus comments upon the shameless attempt of a base partizan to fix a stigma upon the character of one whose social life has been the ex emplification of all Christian virtues. “Possibly, * remarks the 'Times, “nothing has heretofore been so offensive in Radical eyes, as the singular purity aud blamefessness of Jefferson Davis’ pri vate life. The contrast in this respect be tween a fallen chief and his triumphant tevilers, has proved a silent rebuke and reproach against the sanctity claimed for their successful cause. It is no won der, then, that a strong desire should ex ist to assail it, or that among such peo ple one could be found sufficiently loir aud debased to set afloat an iniquitous story, so entirely untrue and malignant, as to earn for its originator a clear title to the scorn aud contempt of every re spectable man and woman in the land. The fiendishness which prompted *nd the ribald malevolence whioh persists in circulating so cruel a falsehood, it is well to know, is horn of the same charity which gave tho country emancipation, and preserved iuviolate the “best Gov ernment under the sun.” It came from our brothers, with whom we are in vited to cultivate relations of amity and union ; and of such is the measure of their sincerity aud encouragement.— We trust to see the better and more chivalrous among them yet repudiate this foul slander upon an aged and hon orable gentleman, whose greatest fault consisted in sacrificing all that was dear and valuable in life to his sense of duty, and what he deemed the welfare of oth ers.
