Tbo seeker after happiness or misery is tho more certain (6 attain his object the earlier he com mences tho acquisition of those habits which lead to the goal of hla aspiration, whether that be happiness or raisery. It is not too early for a boy who intends to be a confirmed blackguard and pest to society, to commence at twelve years old. Let him spurn the counsel of those who love him, and take the opposite coarse to whioh they advise, in all cases. He should .stay away from school in the week time, and from church and sabbath school on Bunday. Ho should run in the streets himself, and docoy as many others from school as he can. He Bhonld procure a pistol, and shoot hia neighbors cats and dogs with it; carry a packf of cards, coax other boys to leave school and their business, to hido away and gamble with him for pennies, penknives, or whatever disposable article they may have. Ho should take care to acauiro the flippant use of profane language, which will bo all the more In Character if seasoned with obscene ex pressions. Ho should tako care to answer insolently when his parents reprove him for any kind of wick edness or mischief, and embraco all occasions to cul tivate a morose, churlish and quarrelsome disposi tion. He should never fail to bo the originator of any piece of mischief that Is to be done in the neighbor hood, if possible; but if any one Bhould happen to get ahead of him, ho should certainly bo the first to sec ond the motion. Breaking windows of empty houses; breaking down and marring shade and fruit trees: drawing obsoene pictures aud writing blackguard words on board fences and buildings; throwing lire crackers under horses’ feet to make them throw their riders; quarrelling andflghtingin the streets; prowl ing about lato at night; slipping into stores and rob bing money drawers; smearing the fronts of dwel lings with ink or tar; and lying on all occasions when accused of any of theso things: all these are highly appropriate in the formation or the character of one wnohopes to becomo the tenant of a peniten tiary or tho victim of a baiter. It is highly necessary for a yonng candidate for these distinctions to acquire all the ornamental hab its as he progresses in the substantial ones. At ten years old such candidate should rarely bo without a chew of tobacco in his mouth, and should learn to squirt oat the mixture of juice and Baliva in some pe culiarly graccfnl manner. A strong cigar to smoko in the faco of ladies and gentlemen wno are out prom enading, is a matter of urgent necessity; and a few weeks practice and a few turns of sickness at tho stomach, will enable tho young candidate to smoke and chew with perfect impunity. Strong beer is probably the most appropriate bev erage for a youngster to begin with, in acquiring that highest and most important accomplishment of a hu man brute, to wit: that of a staggering, wallowing drunkard. After practising with strong beer, cigars and tobacco for a while, tbo candidate may venture on whisky; but ho should tako care to becomo fre quently tipsy with the boer, before commencing with the more potont beverages. There are always plenty ' or low groggerioa, whore boys of any age may obtain beer or whisky to practiso with. It may bo supposed that tho boy who commences at ten or twelve, will bo a tolerable proficient in all the accomplishments of vulgarity, blackguardism and baseness, by tbo time ho is fifteen or sixteen, and be ready for tho more daring atrocities by tbo time ho reaches tho es tate of physical manhood. Then wo behold him ar raigned at the bar of criminal jurisprudence for house-breaking, for pocket-picking, for highway rob bery. for passing counterfeit money, for forgery, sorno one or all of which he must hare recourse to, because ho did not learn any business in bis youth whereby to obtain tho means ofiiving. He did not learn to wield any kind of industrial instrument. He cannot think of submitting to the degradation of toil, after learning somany accomplishments in tho way of vlllany. Ho goes to state prison for a term of two, three or fivo years, and comes out an older, more hardened and more fully accomplished depre dator, and will rarely atop short of tho Rallows. It is not absolutely necessary to commence so young, in order to run the race or infamy to tho goal. Very many commence at the ago of eighteen or twen ty, and becomo as great adopts in viliiany ns thoso who commence earlier. It depends upon tho time whou rum and rowdyism take the helm of their des tiny. Bomo are under restraints in boyhood, but not such wholesome restraints as are necessary to incul cate good principles and guard tho mind against the allurements of vice. There is one advantage, howev er, in commencing In boyhood, which Ib very impor tant: The physical constitution, in that case, will not acquire a toughness sufficient to resist the effects of powerful vices, and early death prevents Infamy from being coupled with the hoary head of age. Unfortunately, we have filled up our space, and bavo presented bat one side of tho picture. But those who will tako the trouble to reverse all the points on this dark side which we have imperfectly sketched, Will not require us to paint tho opposite side. At each of tho points, let tho mind picture the opposite of what it finds there, and trace the parallel of conse quences. He will then have the bright side of the f iictnre drawn In his own mind, by placing contraries n Juxta-positon. The course pursued by the charac ter which we have presented, leads unerringly and inevitably to Infamy, misery and death tho raoBt hor rible. Tlio opposite furnishes a continual feast of joy to the soul, whilst treading the path of life, though ft may bo rough and thorny; and when old ago comes, honor will come with it, and tho day of physical dis solution will bo tbo natal day of a beautified spirit, born into endless life, and destined to eternal pro gression. The Blocking Bird of America, The Amoricon mocking-bird is tho prince of all song-birds, being altogether unrivalled in tho extent and variety of bis vocal powers; and, besides, the fulness and melody of his original notes, he has the faculty of imitating tho notes of all other birds, from the humming-bird to tho eagle. Pennant states that bo beard a caged one imitate tbo mewing of a cat, and tbo creaking of a sign in high winds. Barring ton Bays, his pipes come nearest to tho nightingale of any bird ho ever heard. Tho description, however, given by Wilson, in bis own inimitable manner, as far excols Pennant and Barrington as tho bird excels bis fellow-songsters. Wilson tells us that tho ease, elogance and rapidity of his movements, tho anima tion of his oyo, and the intelligence ho displays in laying np lessons, mark the peculiarity or bis genius. His voice Is fall, strong and musical, and capable of almost every modulation, from the dear and mellow tones of tho. wood-thrush to tho savage scream of tho bald eagle. In measure and accents be faithfully fol lows bis originals, while in strength and sweetness of expression ho greatly improves upon them. In bis native woods, upon a dewy morning, his song rises above every competitor, for the others appear merely es inferior accompaniments. His own notes arc bold and foil, and varied seemingly beyond all limits. They consist of short expressions of one, three, or at most five or six syllables, generally otter ed with great emphasis and rapidity, and continued with nndimlniahed ardor for half an hour, or for an hour at a time. Wbilosinging, ho expands his tail, g listening with white, keeping tlmo to his own mu- 0 { , tho buoyant gaiety of his action is no loss rascinating than nia song. He Bweops round with enthusiastic ^ecstasy; he mounts and descends, as r , r , hia song swells or dies away: ho bounds aloft with Contemporary Literature of America ; Contemporary Lit-' the celerity of an arrow, as if to recover or recall his erature of Germany; Contemporary Literature of France. , ttat* Sovereignty, t It to refreshing, in these days of national progress and greatness, when nil eyes are dakalsd by the splen dor of tho central government, to reou> to the princi ples from whioh the national prosperity has sprung. It was a happy occasion that Mr. CuaniKO soiled, tho other day, at Wilmington, in tho little State of Delaware, to remind tho world that she was oo-oqual with tho othor sovereignties of tho Union, and to re fer to tho origin of the national government aud tho true secret of tho national prosperity. What would Delaware bo, or what honor would a citizen of Delaware oomumnd, If that State stood alooffrom tho Fodoral Union ; or, belonging to it, did not sustain undor a written constitution the dig- pitted relation of a sovereign Rtato ? How readily could tho larger States crush so small and feeble an associate as Delaware, by transgress ing tho provisions of tho common compact. Yes, how suddenly would such an act couvort tho government, now so poworfel and now possessing a prowess which commands tho rospoct of the greatest powers of the earth, into an inanimate statuo of orumbliug clay. Let it but bo known that a spirit of aggression and oppression actuates tho largo States towards tho smaller; let it but bo understood that the mutual oonfldenoo, affection aud good-will lu whioh the com pact of confederacy originated are extinct, and how suddouly would tho national, Stato, aud individual prosperity which now makes tho whole land rojolco, vanish ! and how quickly would tho government, which tho whole peoplo havo just shown themselves so ready to houor, becomo tbo subject of universal execration and hatred 1 The only Bolld basis of prosperity to the country, and of stability to tho national government, is in those principles of the constitution which recognize the distinct sovereignty of the States, and tho inviolabili ty of tho institutions of each by the pcopio of tho others. It is ranch to bo regretted that tho hurry of tho oc casion did not permit Mr. CusniNa to indulge a more extended expression of the sound national sentiments of his speech at Wilmington, which wo re-produce. Richmond Enquirer. speech op hr. cuaniNQ AT WILMINGTON, Delaware. Hou. Caleb Cushing was next introduced to the citi zens, and Bpoke os follows : Fellow-citizens: I yield to your request that I should now address you, with tho less reluctance, for tho reason that this State of Delaware, with one other of the States of tho Union—viz: Rhode Island—affords tho most perfect and admirable illustration of tho most beautiful feature in the constitution of the Uni ted States, upon whioh tho integrity, nay upon which, In my judgment, tho salvation and existence of tho Union depend. Gentlemen : Thoso who framed tho constitution of government under which we live, were wise, good men. They were the demi-gods of our country's he roic age. They assembled amid burning towns, the roar of tho cannon of invading enemies—they, a fee ble people, not even yet In the gristle of manhood, to arm themselves against the greatest and most pow erful of tbo governments or Christendom ; and then aud there, in the presenco of danger, under all appa rent discouragement, that prophetic vision of tho fu ture that seemed rathor an Inspiration from Heaven than the suggestion of a human heart—I say then and there to found this mighty fabric ot tho United States, they assembled thirteen independent colonies, aud, by the blessing of God, pronounced tho declaration or separation of England—each independent not only of Great Britain, but of each other, i ^, e8 ® thirteen independent States convened, not In a legislative body, but in a congress of the diplo matic representatives of sovereign States, to bind their aeirarato power and strength to light that great war of independence to a successful issue. They did so, each continuing an independent State, allied, con federated, not merged into one central government, but confederated and represented by their agents in that confederation. We look around upon tho Span ish American republics, upon Mexico and tho rest, with wondor that their history is but a history of civil war ; that in all but a generation of liberty they seem to havo discovered nothing but liow.to perpetuate disorder; that they live, as it were, in a chronic dis temper of revolution ; that their governments are but a constituted anarchy; and that every year, as it re volves, brings around a new militury insurrection and a nownronunri'nmcn/o to add to the long roll of faction and civil caruago. Wo wonder at this, und wo cannot fail to wonder at the marvellous contrast presented in the spectacle of our own peace, our own order, our own steadily advancing nower and prosperity, our own universal ly diffused liberty, our own possession of that spirit of manhood incarnate in tho breast of every citizen, in virtuo and by impulsion of which enr institutions work by their own inherent energy—by the virtue and patriotism of men, not by the wisdom ortho skill of government. No, gentlemen, that government which represents your greatness, whioh is tho ngent of your power, has been enubled, through long years of prosperity, to conduct this country from triumph to triumph, mounting as it were, day after day, to wards thoso imperial heights of greatness which wo arc destined to attain. Isay that government has done it first, because it is buj tho embodiment of your own Hpontaueoes, self acting wills; and, secondly, to go buck to the idea I desire to present to you, because of that wiso provis ion of tiiu framers of tho constitution which gave to tho thirteen States co-equal representation in the Senate of tho United States. That, gentlemen—that much abused and much misunderstood doctrine of the rights of tho States; that glorious, grand, and sublime conception of tho co equal rights of the States oho in the presence of the other, which to-day is call ed accession, aud to-morrow disnnion, by wbatevur nnrao of reproach a wise man mayseo fit to slander it, that which is in truth tho original cardinal spirit of tho constitution of tho United States. If gentlemen will go back onco more to tbo forma tion of the constitution, and remember that of these thirteen co-equal sovereigns there stood Virginia, mighty in her population, mighty in the intellect of her sons, mightier still in her relative weight and power, by reason of her magnitude ; that there Btood opposite tho State of Massachusetts, not, as now, Bhom of five-sixths of lior territory by the separation of Virginia—sho, always great in her population and her representative wealth, great in tho self-sacrificing devotion of her sons; great, I may be permitted to say, in their wisdom—thoso States occupied nearly one-half the territory of tho then thirteen States; yet, by their sides stood tho little States of Rhode Island and Delaware, little only in territory.

They appeared to bo of a loving tomporamont, and delighted mach in thovarlousaUraoUoni'Ol Bara toga. For some days thoy wore tho oyuosure of all star-gazers. The lady wm a brnnotto, riobly raouldod, and possessed or dark, liquid oyes, on which a man's soul might float away very easily. The gentleman was favora bly situated with regard to masculine perfections, and lacked very few of the social requisite for winning regard. Every ono vlowod them os a handsomo couple. On Saturday, amongst othor arrivals at tho same hotel’a lady printed horself. She was a blondo, with delicate features, and mild bluo eyes. The book keeper banded her tho register, when, to his conster nation,she subscribed hersolf as Mrs. X. Y. Z. Very fl®*®tly, and apparently with little emotion, she ask ed Inin If her husband bad arrived. With beautiful simplicity, ho ropllod," Yes—and bis lady, too."— Hereupon there was a kindling up of internal fire, and the mild bluo oyes became slightly green. The blondo insisted on seeing the faithless X.Y.Z., but tho masoulino representative of thoso tliroo letters, In company with tho tomonlno ditto, lmd gono on a plea sure trip to Saratoga Lake. Mrs. X. Y. Z., No. 2 im mediately ordered a carriage, and after a word of promise to the driver, went Tn hot pursuit. Arrived at the Lake House, tho eager lady discovered that two E orsons anaworing tho dcscriptiou of tho fugitives ad lunched there, and were then yachting on tho silvery bosom ortho lake. Not to bo battled at this hoar, Mr. X. Y. Z. negotiated with the Lady of tho Lake, aud Boon hoisted sail to follow. Now comes tho mystery. From tbo jut of land whereon tho Lako House is situated, could be observ- ed, "with tho naked eye, 1 'tbo yachts wherein Mr. and Mrs. X. Y. Z., and still another X. Y. Z., were seated. For somo tlmo they moved towards each other, in languid politeness of motion, but when within a doz en lougtns of each other's brow, tho yacht containing the former couple was precipitately " put about."— Every stitch of canvass was braced to the wind, and a most exciting raco commenced, and continued un til tho increasing shades of evening, and the distance, obstructed the view. After waiting for some hours, tho carriages of both parties returned to Saratoga empty; sinco which tlmo nothing has been heard of the missing parties. they jmTeUll oK'/cacTi'tto oTted? knowing ones maintain tlmt Mr. X.

Once Again 1 Having anuounccd myself to tho rotors of McIntosh an a candidate to tho lower IIouso of tho Legislature, I will not withdraw uiy name, although some think it presumption in me to run, an I am not a rich man, and tho more no be cause I daro to advocate measures that may be unpopular. In becoming a candidate, I havo only exorcised a right which is free to all of us. I hopo I shall novor bo actuated by tho popularity or unpopularity or any measure, but In my own convictions of right and wrong; for I boliovo that “ honesty is tho best policy” in all things. If elected, I will endeavor to discharge tho duties devolving upon mo to tho best of my ability. If defeated, it shall not nnnoy ine , for I shall not strivo to gain ono vote by smooth words or tho pernicious dram, which customs aro too prevalent in • ur country; but, having disclosed tho views I entertain, I will leave the voters to mako up their verdict upon it as they may deem proper. Tlmt thero may bo no misapprehension of my sentiments, I will ro-state thorn: 1. I advocate a revision of tho militia and patrol lawR. 2. I advocate the establishment of a publio printing of- Deo for tho printing of all State papors and publishing tho works of Southern authors, as low, or lower than they can be published at tho North; thereby oncnuragingSouth- ern literature, nnd making us independent of the North ; tho oDlco to bo controlled by trustees, appointed by tho' legislature, nnd who shall report annually to tho Govornor and Legislature. 3. I advocate tho repeal of all tho laws licensing the sale of spirituous liquors; for if it is wrong to soli spirituous liquor, tho State becomes a party to tho crime by selling the llconso or indulgence, nnd upon tho same principle tho State can soil a liconso or indulgence for tho porpotration of any crime. 4. I advocate tho passage of nn net, permitting overy white person to buy and sell spirituous ltquor as ho pleases, providod It bo not from and to nogroes. 5. I advocate the passage of an act making drunkenness a crime, nnd holding tho porson furnishing liquor lo another person accessory to tho crime committed by the recolver In a state of Intoxication, unless said roceivor did not drink to excess previous to tho passage of this act. O. I lmvo uo Interest Involved to make me wish to annex n part of Slclntosh to Liberty ; but I understand that somo persons iu tho neighborhood of Mr. Georgo Carter wished to bo annoxed to Liberty, because they wore from thirty to thirty-flvo milos distant from Darien, and buttwelvo or six- teen from IllnesviUo ; ao, should they or any other citizens of McIntosh petition to bo cut off from Liberty, nnd show a good reason for it, I will endeavor to havo their potitlon granted; but I would not grant a cession of tho territory of McIntosh upon tho potitlon of tho citizens of Liberty, for I would not bo tlielr.representative if sent from this’ county. Xi w Bakkr Types and Typos. The greatest ilifflculty with type-setters is in the Fact that they will not emulate their great American prototype, Doctor Franklin, when ho was a composi tor in tho olficc of his elder brother, in Boston. He did not set types with ids llngors whilst his mind was running on the follies of last night’s revel. His mind kept even paco with tho mind of the writer, and hence lie know what the word was when he came to it almost without the use of his oyes. Ono of the most able correspondents of the paper which ho was employed on, was regularly answered by an unknown correspondent (whose replies were poked into the office under the door) with such pow erful reasoning that he found himself vanquished and had to give up tho contest. This incognito writer was unknown to overy body either in the office or out. Evcrv body wanted to know who lie was, hut nobodv could discover him. He carried too many guns for any of tho contributors to the paper. Jinny a consul tation was held by the proprietor nnd tho talented citizens who contributed, to devise ways and means to discover who it was tlmt produced those powerful arguments, but they were nil to no purpose. Nobody, of course, Huspectcd tho proprietor's brother, yomig Ben Franklin, of having a mind so ripe and so pow erful, at so green nn age ; but lie it was. As ho set up tho articles of contributors, he carefully weighed and scanned every sentiment and position, and np- plied to it the test of that native logic, which, in after life, made him more than a match for the most pow erful thinkers of tho age in which bc'lived.
