THE MAN OP BIO WOBD8.
We once heard a man say to a waiter of a hotel—
“ My good fellow, agitate the communicator.” He
meant ling the bell. This sort of affectation is very
common, and particularly among a certain class of
professional men.
We know a medical man, who, though talking to
the n\ost illiterate of bis patients, tells them there is
great tenderness about the epigastrium, a aid de
rangement of the cbylopoictic viscera, and a want
of proper peristaltic action of the abdominal visce
ra, et cetera.

very liberal one, and something like the following—

to the curate of the village, and offered to offi
ciate for him on that day. Tho curate modestly told
him bis congregation was entirely composed' of illit
erate country people, who would scarcely understand
tbe language of sodearned a man. Tho Doctor obvi
ated thm difficult]
terms be could cu .... „
preached; and, after the sermon, os he and the cu
rate walked homo together, he asked if he had not
kept hfs word. Tbe curate said ho certainly had,
with the exception of one term. “ What is that?’’
said the Doctor. “ Tbe word felicity,” replied the
curate. “ Oh, nonsense!” said the astonished Doc
tor ; “ every body unilqjstanda that. Sco, I will ask
that countryman Just passing. Here, John, ray man,
can you tell me the meaning of felicity?” John took
off bis hat and scratched bis head, and after thinking
a little, said, " Wlioy, I don't know, zur, exactly, but
I think It bo someat out a’ the inside of a pig.” The
Doctor was satisfied then, as we have been Badly,
■lnco, that “ felicity ” is not well understood by the
English peasantry.
It is the province of a gentleman always to adapt
himself to the persons be is addressing, and it is the
pride of the true scholar to convoy bis knowledge to
others in tho simplest and moat understandable style.
There is a want of integrity in clothing trilling ideus

The most amusing Instance we remember of stilted
English is in an apology made by an English Clergy
man to hlacongregation, who hml petitioned him to
use a simpler style of expression in the pulpit. £
was as follows:
" Respected Friends—My oral documents havo re
cently been the subject of your vituperation. I hope
it wilt not bo deemed an instance of vain elocution,
if I laconically promulgate that, avoiding all syllogi-
cal, aristocratic, or peripatetic propositions, whether
physiologically,philosophically, politically, or polem
ically considerea oil hvporboiical oxpresssion, cither
In my diurnal peregrinations, or nocturnal lucubra

assimilated with, considered and rendered congenial

the remedy worse than the disease, and concluded to
let the minister have his own way.
THE YOCNO LADY NOT TBUE TO HEBSECF OB OTHEBS.
It is of little consequence what accomplishments a
young lady may possess, or what may be her persou-
al charms, If she lack that crowning grace of charac
ter, both in man' and woman—earnest sincerity and
continual truthfulness. It was prettily said by some
author, that he Imd as soon expect a bullet from a
rose-bud as an oath from the raoutli of a woman. An
untruth, Rom tho same source, strikes us as not less
shocking.
Tho whole system of fashionable education is so
thoroughly at war with nature and truth, that wo ore
less am-prised at tho want of integrity among those
who are educated at a fashionable boarding school,
than we should bo to find ono who had escaped the
contaminating influence of bucIi a teaching. True
education does not consist wholly in Intellectual ad
vancement. The heart needs a guide and directing
power os well os the head; and the great defect in
the system of education to which we have alluded, is,
that the former Is for the most part wholly neglect
ed. The fashionable graces of lffo aro all cultivated
with the utmost care, whilst tho heart lies fallow—so
that weeds, rank and foul.possess’it merely.
Young ladies “finished’—“done for” wonldboa
better terra—at a fashionable school, when they enter
society ore little better than “sprynges to catch
woodcock.” We sincerely pity tno bird who Is un-
fortunate enough to get entrapped. Rut tbe most
cautious*mon, with tho siucerest qualities of heart and
head, may be taken in a moment of weakness by one
of these butterfly artiflcialtics, and if he be, a pretty
life he will lead. Houest in bis own intentions, de
voted in bis attachments, be learns, when he has lost
the mastery over himself, that tho creature he loves
is little better than a “ whitened sepulchre," beauti
ful externally, but rotten and worthless within. God
help the fireside which is presided over by ono of
•these forced growths of a fashionable hot-bed educa
tion, for the nonsehold deities, which Burroand the
hearth of the good man with joy, fly at her approach,
and will have no communion with her—tho tawdry
compound of muslin and whalebone. The young girl
who fritters away tho morning of her life In trifling
follies, flirting, with fools as empty as herself, will
bare a weary noon and a night or self-reproach and
merited contempt. Let the yonng man, who is In
March of domestic happiness, beware how he trusts
hla hopes to one of these things. She is in search of
an establishment—not a heart.
Hon. Jacob Unmet, of Cincinnati.
The telegraph announces tho death of tho Hon.
Judge Barnet, of Cincinnati, ono of the pioneers of
civilization and settlement In tho Volley of the Mis
sissippi. and ono of tbe remnants of the old federal
party of the days of Washington and Adams.
The father or Judge Burnet was Dr. Wm. Burnet,
of Newark, Now Jersey, who was a member of tho
Continental Congress, and physician and surgeon
C ttoftbe, Revolutionary nrmy for the Eastern

mitted to tbo bar In New Jersey in 1700. soon after
wbieh he removed to Cincinnati, where he has over
since continued to reside. Devoting himself to the
practice of bis profession, he for many years ranked
among the most distinguished members of tbo bar in
Ohio. Under the territorial government ho was a
member of tbo Legislative Council, and under tbe
State government was a member of the Legislature,
and actlvo in supporting tho government in tbe war
of 1817, although opposed to tho declaration or war.
In 1831 bo was appointed one of the judges of the 8n-
preme Court of Ohio, which office ha resigned in De
cember, 1878. aaff was immediately after elected to
the Senate of the United States, to fill the vacancy
occasioned by the resignation of Gen. Harrison, of
Whom be was a devoted personal and political friend

Pacific Ilollrond.
Wabiunolon, May 16,1863.—While tho Govern
ment is makiug such vigorous preparations for the
survey of several routes for a railroad from the Mis
sissippi to the Pacific, a private company formed in
Texas and New York, are making arrangements fora
rival route through Texas, from the Bay of Mutagor-
do to'EI Passo, and thence, by tho most practicable
route, to San Diego. Gon. O. Clark, of New York, has
alzeady gono to Texas to completo the arrangements
for the survey-of this route. It is stated, in the news-
K , that others of the New York company, luclud-
u. Me Alpine and Mr. Chatficld, are expected
there. It is said that Mr. Robert J. Walker is engaged
In the enterprise. The Legislature of Texas, at their
late session, made very liberal grants of lands, and al
so of money in aid of the construction of the differ
ent branches of tho road within tho limits of Texas.
This route is undoubtedly the shortest, and tho
most practicable and least costly, of oil tiie various
routes that hare been suggested ; but it is not the
route that commerce aud travel are disposed to take.
Fifty thousand people now annually travel, by nearly
a direct route from Saint Louis to Sau Francisco, and
some route, indicated by tiie course of commerce and
emigration, will be adopted by the government, with
out regard to distance or expense, if it be found to be
practicable.
The Government is not likely to adopt Commission
er Bartlett’s views of the Mexican boundary question.
The views of Mr. Grey, the surveyor attached to the
commission, will be sustained. A question has arisen
whether Mr. Grey’s diplomatic power* were equal to
thoso of the commissioner, and ex-Secretary Stewart
has come out iu a letter declaring that they were not,
and fortifying tho assertion by a reference to Mr.
Webster. Rut it is answered that Mr. Webster’s only
recorded opinion on tiie subject—;as found in tho Sen-
nte debate on tho subject of tiie salaries of the com
mission—was that tiie two officers were equal in au
thority. If so, Mr. Grey’s opinion waa entitled to as
much iufluoncc in the decision of the question ns that
of Mr. Bartlett. Rut, whatever may bo tho opinion
of that gentleman as to the boundary line agreed to
by the joint commission, it is very certain that they
will not adopt the mode of settling tho question which
Governor Lane attempted. Ion.
The Weather, Crops, &c.
The present Bpring hu* been decidedly a variable
one, save iu its dryness. At one tirno we have it tint
enough to scortch and wither growing plants, and
then wo havo a Tow days that would uo credit to a
winter season, so it was tho past week. Rain is still
iiccncd, though those planters who havo their crops
up, and worked over arc not suffering so severely, yet
there are many whose cotton is uot up, while others
having nlantcd their com without plowlug tho land
thoroughly, find it now difficult tomannage to keep it
in agrowing aiyl thriving condition ; such are in a
sad plight, they can do it no good by work, and eve
ry day's continuance of the drought, dwarfs tho stalk
and dries up the little nutriment that feed its roots.—
We have heard of some who arc In this situation, and
a great many however, corn planted under such cir
cumstances looks desperately bad. Notwithstanding
tiie adverse and unfavorable season for the planters
wo have seen some corn fields in tiie country which
givo a very promising appearance, but the cotton is
generally poor, the season has been entirely too cold
for it, a warm summer will do much towards bringing
it out.—Saiulersvillc Georgian, 1th.
The Southern Memphis Convention,
The late Southern Convention at Baltimore adjourn
ed to meet at Memphis on tho first day of June, and
from tbe movements makiug in tho Cotton States in
the appointment of delegates, they at least will be re
presented by unusually largo delegations of their best
men of all parties.
They propose, ut this Memphis Convention, to ills-
urns the policy of—
A continental cotton depot, in opposition to Liver
pool ;
- Of direct exportation of cotton by tho planter;
Of a southern importing market, lu opposition to
Now York;
Of southern lines of steamers;
Of stimulating manufactures, education, Ac., Ac.
In fact, they proposo as far as possible to cut the
'Houth loose from its depeudonco upon the North in
;.ho shipping business, manufactures, schools aud col-
| eges. And as thoy appear to bo in earnest in their
, ireparations it is very likely they may do something,
i Their nrogrammo covers a system of operations very
I ittie snort of a political revolution. Wo shall know
inon whether it ends in gas or practical action.—JV.

On the Hudson River Railroad trains travel with

An average speed of fifty miles an hour is required

or the prevention of disasters, which Is thus sketch-

A complete corps of algnal-men maintain© a i

ho signal of danger Is possod along almost with tbe

lent distanco to insure the safety or an approacblni

Missionaries soon learn that to teach effectually

creased expenditure. Tiie American Tract Society
has published one hundred and fifty-seven new work*
in ten different languages, beiug nearly double the
number issued in 1851-62. Tbe total circulation of
their publications now considerably exceeds nine
millions of copies. Their receipts during the past
year, have amounted to $385,286, nearly $43,000 more
than the previous year. They have had G42 colpor
teurs in their employment since May last, against G43
the year before. Second to the Tract Society in point
of income stands tho Bible Society, whose receipt*
during tiie year have amounted to $346,542, being
$37,797 more than the amount shown tills time last
year. In May, 1852, they announced that they had
Issued during the twelve months previous 221,450 bi-
hies, and 444,565 testaments; they now tell us that
they have distributed between May, 1852, and May,
1853, as many as 799,370 bibles aud testaments—-
They, too, are flourishing like the green bay tree, and
doing good to all around. The receipts of the Home
Missionary Society have increased from $1G0,0G2,
which was considerably less than their annual expen
diture, to $171,734. The difference i* nearly $3,000
more than the increase of receipts of 1851-1852 over
those or 1850-1851.
The gross receipts of the American Board of Fore
ign Missions show a decreaso for the nine months
ending 30th April, of $1,709 on the corresponding
nine months of last year ; but as in the total receipts
last year a large sura specially given for the payment
of the debt was included, the working Income lias
really increased $14,145, being nearly $8,000 more
than tiie increase observed last May. Tiie receipts of
this institution for tiie lost nine months have been
$23,352 ; their annual budget requires $300,000. Thu
income of the American and Foreigu Christian Union
has swelled to $07,507 ; being about $11,000 more
more than that of 1551 and 1852, and $10,000 more
than that of 1850 aud 1851. It Ls needless to add
that the expenditures have increased in a like ratio,
and that some eight missionaries or assistants have
been ndded to their previous force of one hundred and
ten laborers. A most praiseworthy association, the
American Seman's Friend Society, congratulates its
well wishers on a similar state or improvement. Its
receipts were $23,GG0 in May last year ; they are now
$25,283. The American Female Guardian Society
seems to have been doing more good than usual with
less meaus. Last year its receipts were set down at
$15,490, and tho number of persons received and shel
tered at four hundred and eighty-six ; this year we
find its income only reacbes , $12,772, while the num
ber ot persons received, amounts to 557. We pre
sume the sum spent in printing lias been less. Tho
Sunday School Union—which lias probably made
more display than any of tiie other religious associa
tions—has an income of $10,000. Last year its pupils
numbered 25.000. Returns from 77 out oH57 school*
this year, show 15,100 pupils. •
Among tiie charitable institutions, the State Colon
ization Society deserves a place, and we regret to
find that its receipts have fallen from $21,033 to about
315,900. Its usefulness has not diminished however;
tiie numl»er of negroes exported sluce May, 1852, has
been 728, being 110 more than the previous year.—
The Five Points House oflndustry is thriving beyond
tho hopes of its founders. During the past year four
hundred and two persons have been received; aud
out of that number only sixty-six have escaped, lteiiij
expelled or “ left uncompromisingly ”—a very small
proportion, when tho character of tiie materials tho
managers had to work upon is borne in mind. The
receipts during tho last year have amounted to $15,-
681. Some Hi,006 nre required to carry on the insti
tution for another year, $302 85 towards which were
collected ut tho anniversary meeting. Tho Society
for Ameliorating the Condition of the Jews, congrat
ulates its friends on an increase in its receipts of about
$.500. That for tho Suppression of Gambling is fall
ing off, only $1,680 having been collected, against
$3,055 last year. We flud, with pleasure, that the an
nual receipts of tho Institution for tho Blind have in
creased from $33,135 to $40,590. The number of blind
persons received into their asylum has niso increased.
During the year 1850-’1, 144 inmates had been lodg
ed ; during the year 18.51—’2, only 138 ; the report of
tho last year shows 150. Tho Doaf and Dumb Insti
tution lias received 200 pupils during the last year,
against 240 the year previous.
Somo notion of the amount annually expended by
our citizens for charitable or religious purposes, may
bo gathered from tho following table :

According to this statement, the net incresse of
voluntary contribution* to charitable and religious in
stitutions during tiie year, would appear to have been
about $120,000. But os many returns aro wanting,
and others incomplete, we shall be safe in estimating
the Increase at $150,000to $175,000.
On tho whole, the week has atl'orded just sources
of pride to us all. It teaches that in spite of tiie fitful
glare of infidelity, and the insidious attacks of secret
foes, religion is really progressing in our midst, and
her twin-sister, Christian charity, is not lagging be
hind. If the gratifying picture Is stained with an oc
casional blot; if. side by side with the edifying report
of tiie Tract or Bible Society, appear the grotesque
revels of tiie simpletons who raise their puny voices
againRt the Union, because the constitution offend*
their notions ; if tho Uiblo is tortured to serve their
fanatic and traitorous purpose, ample consolation for
the annoyance is afforded by the consciousness of
tbeir insignificance and unpopularity. True religion
derives brighter effulgence by a contrast with their
faiso doctrines; modest, unobtrusive piety a nobler
halo from appearing Bide by aide with their factious
clamor.
Law and its Administration.—John Lowry, who
was indicted for killing John Moore, in Anderson
township, Ohio, in July, 1852, lias been twice convict
ed in Cincinnati of murder in tho first degree, and
each timo tho verdict was set asido and u new trial
granted. On being arraigned for the third time, tho
murderer pleaded guilty to tho charge, and the Judge
decided that he had only committed manslaughter,
whereof ho is now awaiting tho sentence of tho Court.
Judges will have their way.
The fllecacy of an internal remedy in successfully treat
ing Rheumatic Complaint* ha* been fully proved by the
use of Moutmore’s Rukdmatio Compound and Blood Purifier,
which in five year*’ use h&a never been known to fell erad
icating this dire complaint, wherever of a chronic or acute
chacacter. Tho testimonial* in it* fevor aro from person*
of the highest standing in the community—For *a!o in Sa

CARPER’S SPANISH MIXTURE.

Rheumatism. Obstinate Cutaneoua Eruptions. Pimples
nr Pustule on the Face. Blotches, Boils. Chronic Sore Eyes.
Ring Worm or Tetter, Scald Head, Enlargement and Pain

ders, Lumbago, Spinal Complaints, and all I Lease* arising
from an injudicious uso of Mercury, Imprudence in Life
Impurity of the Blood.
B'lliis valuable Medicine, which has become celebrated fer
tbe number of extraordinary cures effected through its
agency, ha* induced tho proprietor*, at tho urgent request
of their friend*, to offer it to the public, which they do with
the utmost confidence in its virtues and wonderful curative
properties. Tim following certificate*, selected from a large
number, are. however, stronger testimony than tho mere
word of tho proprietors; and are ail from gentlemen well
known in their localities, and of the highest respectability
many of them now residing in the city or Richmond Va.
F. BOYDKN. Esq., of the Exchango Hotel. Richmond,
known every where, says ho has seen the Medicine called
Csrtkk's Spanish Mixture administered In over a hundred
case*, in nearly all the diseases for which it is recommend-
ed, with the most astonishingly good results. He sars it is
the most extraordinary medicine he has over seen.
H AGUE AND I EVER—GREAT CURE—I hereby certify.
at for three years I had Ague and Fever of the most vio
lent description. I hnd several Physicians, took large quan-
titles of Quinine. Mercury, and I believe all the Tonic* ad
vertised, but all without any permanent relief. At lost I
tried Caktkb's Si’Axjhh Mixture, two bottles of which effec
tually cured me, and I am happy to say 1 have had neither
Chill* or Fevers since. I consider it the best Tonic in the
world, and tho only medicine that ever reached my case.
Beaver Ham, near Rlshinond, Va. JOHN LONG DEN.
C. B. LUCK, Esq., now in the city of Richmond, and for
many years in the Post Office, has such confidence In the
astonishing efficacy of Carter’s Spanish Mixture, that he
lias bought upwards of 50 bottles, which he has given away
to the atUlcted. Mr. Luck cays he has never known it to
fell when taken according to directions.
Dr. MINCE, a practising Physician, and formerly of the
City Hotel, in the city of^Richmond, says he has witnessed
In a number of instances the effect* of Carter’s Spanish
Mixture, which were most truly surprising. He says in a
caso of Consumption, dependent on the Liver, the good ef
fect* were wonderful indeed.
SAMUEL M. DRINKER, of the firm of Drinker A Morri*,
Richmond, was cured of Liver complaint or 8 years stand
ing. by the uso of two bottles or Carter’s Spanish Mixture.
GREAT CURE OF {SCROFULA—The Editors of the Rich-
moud Republican had a servant employed In their press
roum, curel or violent scrofula, combined with Rheuma
tism. which entirely disabled him from work. Two bottles
of Carter’s Spanish Mixture made a perfect cure of him, and
. tho Editor*, in a public notico. say they “ cheerfully recom
mend it to all who are afllictod with any diseaso of the
blood.’’
STILL ANOTHER CURE OF SCROFULA-I bad a very
valuable boy cured or Scrofula by Carter’s Spanish Mix
ture. I consider it a truly valuable medicine. JAMES M.

Salt Rheum, which he had nearly 20 years, and which all
tho physician* of the city could not cure. Mr. Thompson
ia a well known merchant of Richmond, Va., and his euro
is most remarkable.
WM. A. MATTHEWS, of Richmond, Va., had a servant
