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. Lawyers, fnll of "de bene esses” and Latin quota tions—' 4 Falsus in nno,” falsus in omnibus—is often at their tongue’s cuds, and one half of them, if they were asked to translate, would probably givo you a very liberal one, and something like the following— False in one thing—you may be mistaken in an om nibus.

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 In garments which do not lit them—asses in the lion’s akin. 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 tions.

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 ct. Hi* son, Jacob Burnet, tho subject of this notice, was born in Newark, Now Jersey, in Februa ry, 1770, graduated at Princeton college, and was ad 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 ss he was also of John Quincy Adams ami Henry Clay. In March 1840, he attended the inauguration of Ueo. Taylor, at Washington aud was at the head of a Urge delegation of the whto* of Ohio who waited on the General to congratulate him on his election to the Presidency. Jndge Barnet was the first President of the Astron* nmical Society of Cincinnati, and was an active mem ber after be was eighty years of ago.

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.

On the Hudson River Railroad trains travel with ;reatcr speed and with greater safety than on any •tlier road iu this countiy, and perhaps in tho world. An average speed of fifty miles an hour is required ]>y tbo time table oi tho express train over the road com New York to Albany. This high speed is main- alned with safety by means of on admirable system* or the prevention of disasters, which Is thus sketch- d by tho New York Tribune : A complete corps of algnal-men maintain© a i •etual watch at all necessary points from one end of ho road to tbe other. At every bridgo, every clos ing, overy cutting, and every place where there is .ot a clear view of tbo track, or wbero it is liable to io obstructed, these sentinels have theirstationB. and ho signal of danger Is possod along almost with tbe ' peed of tho telegraph. In this way any sudden eril on tbe rails is immediately announced at a suffi- lent distanco to insure the safety or an approacblni : ruin. It each draw-bridge two tenders aro constant y posted. No draw Is allowed to bo opened when a . rain is duo, until twenty minutes havo passed alter I be time for it to arrivo ; and then tho signal must •o shown at least a mile from tho bridgo, and a torpe- ! o laid on tho milH to explode under tho advancing ; ngino, to warn its driver, if he should fail to sco tho l ignal.

Sectarianism has not been obtrusive f and Utoogh the Roman CathoUo feliow-dtUena may pomldly demur to tbe language used by the Protestant mtaalonariea, we cannot Tn fairneaa do otherwise than applaud the moderate tone and tolerant coarse of (he latter. Dissenting broadly from those who deplore tbe division of tho Christian church into sects, and viewing tbe fact as calculated rather to aUmnlate than injure religion, we aro reluc tant to piaoe restrictions on the proselytizing zeal of w i any, to long as that seal la conalteut with a proper cOAL-lUnf......’.'. ** sense of Christian charity. ” Missionaries soon learn that to teach effectually they most teach by examplo as wellasprccept; and if toe rivalry of the Protestant and CathoUo churches produces no other eOcct than to keep alive the reli gious ardor and fervent piety of the ministers of each, we should see enough in that guarantee alone to atone for many of tbo evils of sectarian Jealousy. That there is a limit beyond which religions strife Is an un mitigated evil, history but too plainly teaches: His. ~ wo said, a matter of sincere congratulation that r religions societies have carefully kept within that limit. Nor is it leas gratifying to find that tbo speech es which have been delivered during the past week have been generally characterized by an honest straightforward purpose,and unstained by the stereo typed cant which ao often renders religion an object of ridicule.

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 : Ine. over Income but year. Dec. Am.

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.

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. ■ tho R. " ‘ F. A P. R. R. Co , Richmond, Cared 1 m NOTICE.—Tho schr.
