Authorship ot the Bible,
lltere Is In all sixty-six books which comprise the
volume of Holy Writ, which are attributed to more
than thirty different authors or writers or the whole.
Half of the New Testament was composed by St.
Paul, and the next largest writer is the gentle and
beloved 8U John. With the single exception of Paul,
neither history or tradition has testified that those
powerful thinkers and writers ever enjoyed the bene
fits of education, or that they were trained to schol
arship and learning; yet how ably have they written,
wb&t eminent characters have been chronicled by
them,'and what great events recorded, both lor time
and eternity.
Jeremiah la sorrowful; Isaiah sublime *, David po
etical { Daniel sagacious; Habakkub and Haggai
tenlble and denunciatory ; but they all seem to have
exercised their natural gifts under the influence of
Divine direction and inspiration. Moses, with his
vast knowledge, and profound intelligence—the leg-
fslator, the reformer, the deliverer, commenced the
work ; and John with his depth of feollug and ex
quisite tenderness and simplicity, completed it.
And. what do we know of the lives or all those, or
oven or the two last mentioned ? Nothing that hu
man vanity might exult in. Moses was rescued
from tho oozy rushes of the Nilo; and John died in
his old age a lonely exile on the small Island of Pat-

How to Prosper In Business.
In tho first place make up your mind to accomplish
whatever you undertake, decide upon some particu
lar employment and persevere in it. All difficulties
are overcome by diligence and assiduity.
Be not afraid to work with your own hands, and
diligently too. “ A cat in gloves catches no mice/*
*? He who remains in tho mill, grinds, not he who
goes and comes.”
Attend to yonr own business; never trust to anoth
er. " A pot that belongs to many is ill-stirred and
worse boiled.” *
Be frugal. " That which will not make a pot will
make a pot tid.” Bave the pence and the pounds will
take care of themselves.”
" Be abstemious. "Who dainties love shall beg
gars prove.”
Rise early. " Tho sleeping fox catches no poultry.”
41 Plow deep while sluggards sleep, and you will have
com to sell and keep.”
Treat every one with respect and civility. " Every
thing is gained and nothing lost by courtesy.” "Good
manners insures success.”
Newer anticipate wealth from any other source but
labor ; especially, never place dependence upon be
coming tho possessor of an inheritance. " lie who
waits for dead men’s shoes may have to go for a long
time barefoot.” “ He who runs after a shadow has a
wearisome race.”
Above all things never despair. " God is where he
was." " Ho helps those who truly trust in him.”
The Safest Seat.—In theso days of collisions,
submersions and derailments generally, it is worth
one’s while to know where he cau expect the great
est security in a railroad train. We expect that if
anv opinion should bo given that the indicated car
will be at once crowded Deyond its capacity, but that
result bad better follow than that the Batest car
should go nearly or quite empty.
It is very well known that the car nearest tho en
gine is exposed to tho least dust, and that the rear
car of a train is generally safer than the front car.—
The safest is probably the last car but one, in a train
of more than two cars; that is, there are fewer chancs
of accidents to this than any other.
If it is a way train at moderate speed, or any train
standing still, a collision is possible from another
train in the rear: in which case the last car receives
the first shock. Again, an engine and the front cars
of a train will often go over a broken rail, or a cow.
orstono. without derailment, while the last car, hav
ing nothing to draw it into the line of the train, is
free to leave the track Next to tho forward car, the
rear car is probably the most unsafe in the train
The safest seat is probably near the centre of the
last car bat one, and in a very long train, in tho cen
tres of tho lost two or three cars next to the last.—

11 We have heard eome over sanguine DiiuulontiU and
Democrat* ear that the Whig party wai dead—“kiltentire
ly." If the Whig party la dead, they will find that the
truth of the litany L verified, fur there will be a moat awful
resurrection on tne drat Monday in November next. Look
to your laurel*, ye (filibustering Disunion Democrat*, for it
wiU be a moat disastrous reeurreotion to you."
We make the foregoing extract from the Georgia
Courier. 8uch passages will perhaps do more than
anything we can say to arouse the Democratic party
from its lethargy. Our old opponents—save a chosen
few. who, having united with ns in aid of General
Pikror’8 administration, are side by sldo with us in
support of his administration—are as determined in
their opposition as they ever were. Whig hostility
a just as Btrong in Georgia now to Gen. Purge as it
was six years since to Mr. Polk. And the arguments
now employed against the one, are to some extent
the same as wore formerly employed against the oth
er. Whigs now say that Mr. Pibrob has appointed
Free Soilere to office. Did they not, while Mr. Polk
was President, charge him witli the samo crime ?
We do not complain of the courso pursued by the
paper from which we have quoted. It is bold and
manly in proclaiming its principals, thus contrasting
most favorably with many of the opposition presses,
the editors of which seek to obtain a triumph by con
cealment of their principles, and a denial of their
old party name.
Wo hope the Courier will teach them a little more
honesty than they seem inclined to practice. But
whatever their course may bo, no Democrat can shut
his eyes to the fact that the success ot Mr. Jenkins
and his friends in the approaching election will be
the success of the opponents of the administration-
in other words, of an organization to all intents aud
purposes Whig.

From China.
We have a copy of tbe Overland Register, publish
ed at Hong Kong on tbe 22d of April, but it adds lit
tle to otir present unsatisfactory information relative
to the state of affairs in China, derived froni the Eng
lish journals and private letters received in this city.
From what has already been published in this pa
per, and from report, mentioned in various letters, it
Is probable that tho insurgents had received a check
at Nankin, but of its extent we are left in nearly ex
treme ignorance.
Relative to the probable issues of tho contest, the
paper now before us expresses the following opinion :
Our own opinion is notwithstanding the npparent
progress which has been made by the parties who
are endeavoring to revolutionize the country, that it
will bo fouud, the present rulers of China have power
enough to hold the position which by force or arms
they obtained above two hundred years ago. Wheth
er it will take months, or whether it will take years,
to bring the country luto a state of quietude, is a
question most difficult to answer.
There is one feature in the present position of af
fairs which is particularly worthy of notice—it is
this—not a single officer of the government whether
military or civil has thrown himself into the rebel
ranks. Tho officers of tho present ruling power have
preferred death, either at the hands of their captors
or at tbeJr own, to tbe going over to tbe ranks of tbe
enemy.
The Register makes tho following quotation from
tbe Nortli China Herald, but its value is impaired by
tho want of a date !
To-day at ten, all the foreign residents are to meet at
the requisition of all the consuls to consult on taking
measures for joint defence. In the meantimo Nanking
and Chin-Keangroo are taken by the rebels, and the
insurgents have only been restrained from advancing
on Soochow and Sliaughae by tho presence of the
imperialists in their war. which 1ms compelled them
to retire on Nanking, where they are said to be sur
rounded—while other reports say that they have sur
rounded tho imperialists, and expect iu a few days to
put them to flight.
* * * We have letters last night from
Soochow, detailing their cruelties to the Man-chow*
women whom they took nt Nankin. Having decoyed
700 of them into a building, under pretence of get
ting them married, they set Are to tue house and re
duced them to ashes.
They registered the inmates of each dwelling, and
the next day went through the city, and if they found
any surplusage of inhabitants, they hilled a number
equal to that over. Thoy pressed all the Chinese
from fifteen to forty-live into tho army, killed the
children ai useless, appropriated the younger women,
aud mado the older ones cooks and sculiians.

Mebsrs. Editors .’—A communication appeared in
the columns of yonr paper, a fow days ago, which
purported to be from Mill Haven, tho name of tho
place of the writer. Now, we ohould like to know if
the writer of the article In question wishes to convey
tho idea he is a resident of this connty? as his com
munication, dated at Mill Haven, fairly assumes him
to be. If so, we think, in his zeal to crowd down Mr.
Seward, he has, to say tho least of it, displayed a
taste neither marked by Jndgraont or courtesy: it
seems to be neither fair or prudent that one should
dcslro to leap the boundary line of our Congressional
District and enter the lists, lance in hand, in a con
test we have nothing to do with. If the writer of
said article means to intimate that he expresses the

daring the terrible storm that seemed for a while
Would crash tbe spectre-like majority—wbo stood and

Nicholas can retreat from his position without losing

The Heat of tlio Human Body, and Atmos
pheric Temperature.
A correspondent or the Washington Intelligencer,
referring to tins heat of last weekdays:
Dr. Franklin was the first, in 1750. to remark an
atmospheric temperature above thnt of the blond, and
to notice the power of tho human body to retain its
temperature while all inanimate substances grew
steadily warmer. President .Madison, of William tc
Mary College. Virginia, in 1779, gives the following
curious remark and quotation :
" I do not recollect ever to have seen the thermnm-
oter here at more than 05, though Dr. Franklin men
tions that in June, 1770, it stood at 100 in the shade,
in Philadelphia, when, he observes—-
" ‘ I expected that the natural heat of the body.
96, added to the heat of tho air, 100, should Jointly
have created or produced a much gteater degree of
heat in the body ; but the fact was, my body never
grew so hot as the air that surrounded ft, or the inani
mate bodies immersed in it; for I remember well thnt
the desk, when I laid my arm on it, the chair when I
sat down in it, all felt exceedingly warm to me, as
If they had b.cn warmed before the lire. And I sup
posed a dead body would have acquired the tempera
ture of the air, though a living one, by continual
sweating, and, by the evaporation of flint sweat, was
kept cold.’
" I have been moro particular in transcribing this
passage from tbe works of this philosopher, as it cer
tainly shows to whom the merit of certain late dis
coveries, which have made so much noise in the phi
losophical world, most justly belongs. I mean that
power which tlitf human as well as all animate bodies
nave of counteracting tlio bent of an atmosphere In
which they arc placed. For what do all the experi
ments upon heated rooms evince, further, than Imd
before been published by the Doctor ? It is thus that
Franklin, sitting in his chair, like Newton reasoning
on the Ague of the earth, could show what must cost
others infinite labor and fatigue.”

Tho season for preserving, making jellies, &c., is at
hand. The following receipts may be useful to some
of our female readers:
Cherry Marmalade.—Remove the stones and stalks
from the cherries, and rub the cherries through a
sieve ; add to this result a little current juice, say
half a pint to every three pounds of cherries ; put the
whole over the fire, stirring into it three-quarters nf
a pound of fine white sugar to every pound of fruit,
and boil it until it becomes a thick jelly ; pour it into
jars or moulds, and when it is cold, spread on the
top of each jelly a paper dipped in brandy, cover
each jar or mould tightly, and keep it in a cool and
dry place until it is wanted.
Currant Marmalade or Jam.—This is made in tho
same manner as cherry marmalade, using currants
alone, and addiug to every pound of current pulp and
juice one pound or tlnewnitc sugar.
Raspberry Marmalade ur Jam.—Pass the raspber
ries through a fine sievo to extract their seeds, odd
to them their weight in fine white sugar, and boil
them and stir them over the tire until you can lust
see the bottom of the stew-pan ; treat it as quince
marmalade.
Current and Raspberry /<%—Pick over a quart
of red currents, a quart ot white currents, and a
quart of raspberries; put the whole over the fire, stir
them and boil them about ten minutes, then rob them
through a sieve, strain tho liquor while hot througu
a jolly-bag, add a pound of flue white sugar to every
pint of the liquor, boil it, and treat it as directed for
* P &«i!S'e Jelly.—Tare and grate the pineapple,
and put it into the preserving pro, witli one pound of
fine white sugar to every pound of fruit; stir it and
boil it until it is well mixed and thickens sufficiently:
then strain it, pour it into the jars, and when it be
comes cool, cover the jellies with papers wet in bran
dy ; cover the jars tightly, and treat them as apple
jolly.
Arrived Out.—The brig Zebra, from New Orleans,
which put into Savannah, last February, on account
of a fearful mortality among her passengers and crew,
after leaving the Mississippi, arrived at Monrovia on
the 28lb of March, in forty days from 8avannah—
There wea no further sickness on board after tbe ves-
eel left Savannah, and her ninety-three emigrants
reached the republic in good health.—itqrawam.
" All 18 FOR THE Best.”—Dr. Johnson used to say
that a habit of looking at the beat aide of every ewnt

Arctic Expedition.
Advices from 8t. Johns, Newfoundland, of June
21st, announce the departure from that port of the
brig Advance, of the Grinnell Expedition, on her
Arctio voyage. She was received at St. Johns with
every mark of attention and kindness. The American
consul at St. Johns writes as follows:—
Consulate of tub United Statf.s, )
St. Johns, Newfoundland, June 21,1853. >
Sir : I beg to inform you thnt the brig Advance, of
whoso arrival you will have beoti already uilviscd,
sailed from this port on the evening of the 17th inst.
The Masous held a special lodge meeting, and pre
sented tho commander witli a silk banner. While
leaving the port, a boat came off with presents from
the wile of Gov. Humiltou.and during onr pnBsugc
through tho Narrows, the ship was serenaded from
the uearest point by the military band, the com
mandant, Col. Law, having sent them for that pur
pose.
Tho officers of the vessel were shown great atten
tion by all parties; and, in return, the citizens gen
erally were freely admitted on board the vessel and
every attention paid them. There wus also an offer
made to remit the brig's port charges.
I proceeded to sea in the Advance so far as was
prudent, and parted witli Commander Kune at a
quarter before 1,P. M. The brig was theu running
off to the North-east, under easy sail, with a freshen
ing breeze from W. N. W., night lino, and moonlight,
with a smooth sea. All well.

'Washington Affairs.
Washington, July 7.
Senorde SnrranzRn.iatc Mexican Minister, accom
panied by the Secretary of State, wus to-day received
by the President iu a final official interview. He
made a neat address, in which he mentioned tho fact
that be hud been honored by. his Government with a
new mission, and expressed his satisfaction that du
ring the period of his mission at Wa-diington peace
and good feeling had prevailed between the two Re
publics. He expressed also the hope that in the solu
tion of pending questions tbe spirit of justice, concil
iation and mutual respect might prevail, and return
ed thanks for tho proof of consideration aud regard
lie bud received in tills country, particularly from the
present occupant of the Executive Chuir. ’
President Pierce replied to this address in appro
priate terms, after which Gen. Almonte, the new
Mexican Minister, presented his credentials and de
livered un address, In which ho expressed the anxious
hope that amicable relations through all timu might
be maintained between the two countries, and solicit
ed the co-operation of the President for tho further
ance of that object.
The President responded in a happy manner, and
tbe interview terminated.

Sloveiuciits of tho President.
Washington, July 7.
The statement that President Pierce will decline
all public demonstrations on his wuy to New York, I
am authorized to pronounce incorrect. He will leave
Washington on Monday, and will remain in Baltimore
until Tuesday morning, when he will leave tor Phila
delphia. in which place lie will stay till Wednesday,
and proceed thence to New York, arriving there on
Wednesday evening. He will be accompanied by
Secretaries Guthrie, Davie, Cushing and Campbell,
aud by his private Secretary, Sidney Webster.
Tlio Frontier.
Since it was announced by Col. Benton, and alter
him proclaimed by several of the presses friendly to
him, that large portions of the Nebraska country arc
open to white settlers, a feeling of apprehension has
arisen among the Indians, lest the lauds they hud
supposed theirs might be entered on by the whites.—
Aa already stated by a Western paper, application
has been made to the post at Fort Leavenworth with
n view to such protection ns tlio commandant there
might think tit to extend to tho Indians iu case of
necessity.
Tlio apprehension in question is not confined to tho
Nebraska tribes. The Cherokee Advocate, of the
15th, referring to an arrest mado in the Creek Nation,
by the Marshal of the Western District of Arkansas,
and the rescue of tho prisoner by order of a Creek
Chief, remurks:
" We regret that the interest of the Creeks as a
nation should be put iu danger by the patriotism,
though thoughtlessness of one of its Chiefs. Situated
as the Indians generally are, subject to the oppres
sive hand of power, we greatly fear thnt this net of
the Chief may lead to something that will injure the
people.
** Tho Cherokees or Creeks, as nation^, cannot,
witli safety to themselves, oppose force to tlio opera
tions of the United States’ luws, however unjust the
people may conceive thorn to be—we are weak, they
are mighty. Any act on our part that might lead to
rupture would be the very tiling sought and desired
by our white neighbors who look with envious eyes
upon the beautiful and rich country possessed by the
Creeks and Cherokees.
" However, much wo regret tlio act of our neigh
bors. we b.-ll-ve tlio course pursuoJ by the United
States Court and its officers towards tbe Indians, op
pressive and not warranted bv treaty stipulations.
" The whole of the Creek difficulty has arisen from
the construction given by Judge Wugn to the Inter
course Law, * regulating trade aud intercourse with
the tribes.’
“ If as great efforts were used to prevent tlio bring
ing to our lino bv theirown citizens the great quanti
ty of hell’s distilled liquid, as there is to find out and
diag to Van Burcu,Home poor Indian who may have
given to a friend a dram, there would scarcely bo
any use for the United States Courts at Van Huron.
We liuvo no doubt bin honor, Judge Ringo, by his
decision, designed good to the Indians; but os we
remarked to him we feared the execution would lead
to just such a result as that in the Creek Nation."—
