Weeds and Flowers.— Young Willy Thompson had lived all his life in a large city, and had only seen the flowers growing in the pots and small garden beds. When he . was ten years old, he was sent to the house ol an uncle, who lived in the country lar away from town. On the morning alter his arrival, he walked out with his uncle to look at the many objects so attractive to the eyes of a city lad. The chickens, the ducks, and the geese, the cows and horses, tho sheep and oxen all were looked at and admired. •Come, Willy, let us now go into the gar- ■ den, and see the flowers,’ said the kind uncle, I alter he had shown him all the curiosities oil the barn-yard. And Willy ran gladly after his uncle. • O, see ! what a beautiful flower,’ and \\ illy stooped down, and was about plucking the bios som of an offensive weed. ‘ No—no, Willy,’ said his uncle, ‘ don’t touch that ! It isn’t a sweet flower, only a vile weed. Come along with me, and I will show you plenty of real, beautiful, sweet smelling flowers.’ So Willy went on with his uncle, and soon caine to the. garden, liiled with the loveliest flowers of the season. • Now, my hoy, gather as many as you j please,’ said his uncle, and Willy soon had bo'h j hands full of tho sweetest flowers in the gar- j den. As they went back to the house, they passed the gay weed that Willy had stoped to pluck. • Hut why isn’t that a sweet flower, too, un ci* ? It is very pretty.’ Willy's uncle stooped down and pulled the blossoming weed, and handing it to the boy, he i said— * • Smell it.’ Willy smelled it, and then j threw it quickly on the ground. • Now, smell this rose.’ • Oh, how sweet ! But that weed smelled | very had.’ 1 You now see that there is some difference between a flower and a weed, fine is not on ly beautiful to look upon, but its quality is differ enf, and that quality sends forth a delicious odor. As you grow older, my dear boy, and enter into the world as a man, remember how you were once deceived hy a weed. I)o not j place confidence in every one who puts on a j show of goodness—who presents a beautiful j and attractive exterior —but judge by the odor that proceeds from them ; that is by the acts that show forth their true character.’ The Spirit op Discontent. — How univer sal it is. We never yet knew a man who would say • I am contented.’ Go where you will, a mone the rich and poor, the man of competence or the man who earns his bread by the sweat ofhis brow, you hear the sound of muttering and the voice of complaint. The other day we stood by a cooper, who was playing a mer ry tune with his adze around a cask. • Ah ,’sighed he, ‘ mine is a hard lot—forever trotting round like a dog, driving away at a hoop.’ Heigho !’ sighed the blacksmith, in one of the late hot days, as he wiped the drops of per spiration from his brow’, while the red hot iron glowed on his anvil—‘this is life with a ven geance! melting and frying one’s self over a burning fire !’ ‘Oh, that I was a carpenter!’ ejaculated a shoemaker, as he bent over his lap-stone— • here am I, day after day, wearing my soul a way’in making soles for others : cooped up in this little 7 by 9 room—heigho !’ • I am sick of this out-door work,’ exclaims the carpenter, ‘broiling under a sweltering sun, or exposed to the inclemencies of the weather— if I was only a tailor !’ ‘This is too bad !’ perpetually cries tlie tail, or, ‘to be compelled to sit perched up here playing the needle all the time—would that mine was a more active life !’ ‘ Last day of grace—banks won’t discount— customers won’t pay ; what shall I do?’ grum. hies a merchant. ‘I had rather boa truck horse, a dog—anything !’ , ‘Happy fellows!’ groans the lawyer, as he scratches his head over some perplexing case, or pores over some dry musty record— ‘ happy fellows. I had rather hammer stone, than cud gle my brains on this tedious, vexatious ques tion.’ And so through all the ramifications of socie ty—all are complaining of their condition, fin ding fault with their particular calling, tlf we were only this, or that, or the other, I should be content,’ is the universal cry— ‘ anything but what I am.’ So wags the world—so it has wagged and so it will wag. “AS LITTLE GOVERNMENT AS POSSIBLE J THAT LITTLE EMANATING FROM AND CONTROLLED IIY THE PEOPLE, AND UNIFORM IN ITS APPLICATION TO ALL.”: Tltc Essentials to productive Farmiug. The following sixteen essentials for product ive fanning are from the pen of the editor of the American Fanner, which is wo believe, the oldest agricultural paper in the United States. 1. Good implements of husbandry, and plen ty of them, which should always be kept in perfect order. 2. Deep ploughing, and through pulveriza tion of the soil, by the free use 01. the harrow, drag and roller. 9. And application oflime, marl, or ashes, where calcareous matter or potash may not be present in the soil. 4. A systematic husbanding of every sub stance on a farm capable of being converted into manure, a systematic protection of such substances from loss by evaparation or waste of any kind and a careful application of the same io the lands in culture. 5. The chaining of all wet lands, so ns to re lieve the roots of the plants, from the ill es. t'ects of a superabundance of water, a condition equally pernicious if brought to their healthful growth and profitable fructification. 6. The free use of the plough, cultivator and hoe, with all row cultured crops, so as to keep down, at all times, the growth of grass and weeds, those pests which prove so destructive to crops. 7. Seeding at the proper time, with good seed, and an equal attention as to time, with regard to the period of working crops. 8. Attention to the construction and repair of fences, so that what is made through the toils and anxious cares of the husbandman, may not be lost through his neglect to protect his crops from the depredation of stock. 9. Daily personal superintendence, on the part of the master, overall the operations of the farm, no matter how good a manager he may have, or however faithful his hands may he, as the presence of the head of a farm, and tho use of his eyes, are worth several pairs of hands. 10. Labor-saving machinery so that one may render himself as independent as needful of neighborhood labor, as a sense of the com parative independence of the employer upon such labor begets a disposition of obedience and faithfulness on the part of the employed. 11. Comfortable stabling and sheds, for the horses and stock, all necessary out.buildings for the accomodation of the hands, and protec tion of tho tools and implements, as well as for the care of the poultry. 12. Clover and other grasses to form a part of the rotation of crops, and these to be at the proper periods ploughed in to form pabulum for succeeding crops. 13. The clover field to bo either plastered or ashed each succeeding spring,—one bushel of the former, and six of the latter, per acre. 14. To keep no more stock than can be well ! kept, but to bo sure to keep a? many as the | farm can keep in good condition, as it is wise ! policy to feed as much as possible of the crops grown on the farm, and thus return to it that fthich has been abstracted from it. 15. To provide, a good orchard and garden— the one to be filled with choice fruits of all kinds, the other with vegetables of different sorts, early and late, so that the table may, at all times, be well and seasonably supplied, and the surplus contribute to increase the wealth of the proprietor. 16. The taking of one or more good agricul tural papers. Young France.— A letter to the New York Herald, written in Paris, says : ‘ Louis Philippe 1 ’ has been deposed by boys from twelve to twen vears of age. Do you doubt this ? It is never theless Jrue. These are the persons who have | fought,® led and died to achieve this work. Not a person of note has been concerned in leading these revolutionists ; these boys, assisted by the ; laboring classes, and encouraged by the women, | have chased Louis Phillippe, backed by his 300, i 000 soldiers, and in spite of his fortifications— , these are the powers that have chased him from | the throne of France! lam aware that the public will not believe so extraordinary a state j ment; but, notwithstanding, it is true. 1 have ’ visited the posts of danger, have seen the peo ple who fought, who harracaded the streets and who have effected this extraordinary revo i lotion in twenty-four hours, or less than twenty four hours of fighting.’ Cross old Mrs. Massachusetts— The Bos ! ton Post remarks of this venerable old lady, who wouldn’t give a dollar to keep her volunteers from starving, that ‘one time, in her old woman’s rage, she swore that if Texas came into the Un ion she would go straight out of it! Well, one fine morning, young and blooming Texas walk- I ed right in ever so smiling, was received gra -1 ciously and lovingly by nearly all the other sis ters, and there sat cross old Mrs. Massachusetts with her ‘resolve’ pinned to her apron. But in stead of walking right out, as she had threatened the old lady, who loves trade as well as she does treason, pocketed her‘resolve’ and fell to work swapping her cotton goods with Texas, free of duty !’ German Yeast. —The yeast prepared by the Hungarians will keep for a whole twelvemonth. During tho summer season they boil a quantity of wheaten bran and hops in water; the decoc tion is not long in fermenting, and when this has taken place they throw a sufficient portion of bran to form the whole into a thick paste, which they work into balls that are afterwards dried by a slow heat. When they are wanted for use they are broken, and boiling water is poured upon them, Having stood a proper time, the fluid is decanted, and is in a fit state for leaven ing bread,— Johnson’s Encyclopedia of Agricul ture. AND MERCANTILE ADVERTISER. T • * r . . • . ■ ■’ W- ‘ * V • COIaUUIBUS, Georgia, Thni sday Evening, June 1,. f S4S. . [From Fowler’s American Phrenological ; President of the Methodist Wesleyan University, Middletown, Conn. The above is a good outline of the head and features of this distinguished man. His head is of the largest size, his hat measuring over twen ty-five inches, inside measure. Ilis hatter in formed me that he sold no hat so large, and that he could not get one in this city to suit him.— When a school-boy, his school-mates were ac customed to buy apples by the hat-lull; and they always called for Stephen Olin’s hat, because it was the largest. The head of Mr. Lewis, of this city, is near the size of Dr. O.’s head, but it is much deformed ; while that of the latter is uniform, well-shaped, and proportioned to his body. He has a predominance of the vital and motive temperaments, having a very large and well-proportioned frame. He is best adapted to out-door business and exercise—health cannot well be sustained, in connection with such an organization, without it; and in this respect his present calling is not adapted to his physical or ganization. The natural inquiry that snouTd arise concerning him, is, Has he mental power in proportion to the size of his head ? Facts speak for themselves. The titles attached to name, and tho position ho holds in society, speak volumes in his favor, His writings bear strong testimony for great powers of observation, hav ing been more accurate than most travellers.— His labors as a minister, and his individual in fluence and power to sway the minds of others, are additional proofs, which influence, all who know him, give him credit of possessing. His head i3 favorably developed for a strong, sound, comprehensive mind, and superior organs for acquiring knowledge, and understanding the con dition and quality of things. lie more easily understands, and more thoroughly presents and exhausts a subject, than those who have a small brain. Supremacy of the Human Animal.— The fear which all wild animals in America have of man is very singularly seen in the Pampas. 1 often rode towards the ostriches and gam'ns crouching under the opposite side of my horse’s neck; but I always found, that, although they would allow any loose horse to approach them, they, even when young, ran from me, though little of my figure was visible ; and when one saw them enjoy themselves in such full liberty, it was, at first, not pleasing to observe, that one’s appearance was every where a signal to them, | that they should fly from their enemy. Y’et it is I by this fear that man hath dominion over the beasts of the fields ; and there is no animal in South America that docs not acknowledge this instinctive feeling. Asa singular proof of the ! above, and of the difference between the wild ! beasts of America and of the Old World, I will venture to relate a circumstance which a man sincerely assured me bad happened to him in South America. lie was trying to shout some wild ducks, and in order lo approach them un preccived he put the corner of his poncho ( which is a sort of long, narrow blanket) over Ids head, and, crawling along the ground upon his hands and knees, tho poncho not only covered his body, but trailed along the ground behind him. As ho was thus creeping by a large bush of reeds, he heard a loud, sudden noise, between a bark and a roar; he felt something heavily strike his feet; and, instantily jumping up, lie saw, to his astonishment, a large lion actually standing on his poncho ; and perhaps the animal was equally astonished to find hint in the imme diate presence of so athletic a man. The man told mo he was unwilling to fire, as his gun was loaded with very small shot, and he, therefore, remained motionless, the lion standing on his poncho for many seconds ! At last the creature turned his head, and, walking very slowly away about ten yards, he stopped and turned again. The man still maintained his ground, upon which the lion tacitly acknowledged his su premacy and walked off.— Sir Francis Head's Jovrney Across the Pampas. Remedies against Moths. —lt is an old custom with somo housewives to throw fijlo their drawers every year, a number of fir cones undor the idea that their strong resinous smell might keep away the rnoth. Now, as the odor of these cones is due to turpentine, it occurred to Reaumur to try the effect of this volatile li quid. He rubbed one of a piece of cloth with turpentine, and put some grabs on the other the next morning they were all dead, and strange to say, had voluntarily abandoned their sheaths. On stqearing some paper slightly with tho oil, His temperament, however, is not favorable, to quickness, brilliancy, and impulsiveness, but he warms up to his subject, gradually ; and, like j a large stone rolling down hill, gathers strength and activity as he proceeds. The full pow. er of his mind is manifested when fair ly warmed up on subject of great import ance. His power over the minds of others arises from two sources: 1. He takes general and extensive views ol subjects, presenting them in so plain a light that he is understood without much mental labor on the part of hearers. 2 : He. is very successful in awakening the affec tiens and sympathies of others. His head indi- ; cates strong attachments, parental feelings, and ; great application of mind. With a large devel opement of the moral organs, joined wiih very j large perceptive faculties, and large reasoning 1 organs, his sympathies, sense of justice, and j feelings of devotion, are all distinct qualities of 1 mind ; and his brain is largely developed in their location. He is not naturally proud, visionary, or witty; but is diffident, and disposed to distrust hi's own abilities—lacking the sustaining influ ences of Self-Esteem and Hope. His very large perceptive faculties, and Com. parison, furnish him with superior descriptive talents, for which he is remarkable ; and these, joined with Causuality and Concentrativenoss, give him uncommon mathematical and scien tific talent.. He i3 a great student of nature ; ex- j amines everything closely, and obtains clear and ! distinct views of things. His Order is very large.; lie is systematic in all his arragemonts, seldom makes mistakes, and, from the great size of Cautiousness, Conscientiousness, Firmness, and Concentrativcness, I should judge him pru dent, uniform, circumspect, and consistent, both in public and private life. and (lulling this into a bottle with some grubs, the weakest were immediately killed ; the most vigorous struggled violently lor two or three j hours, quitted their sheaths and died in convul-1 sions. It was soon abundantly evident that the j vapor of oil or spirits of turpentine acts as a ter- j rible poison to the grubs. Perhaps it may be! said that even this remedy is worse than the ! disease, but, as Reaumur justly observes, we J keep away from a newly painted room, or leave i oft for a few days a coat from which stains have 1 been removed by turpentine, why therefore can we not once a year keep away for a day or two from rooms that have been fumigated with tur-! pentine. It is, however, surprising how small ‘ a quantity of turpentine is required, a small i ; piece of paper or linen justly moistened there, with, and put into the wardrobe or drawers a single day, two or three times a year, is a suf licient preservative against moths. A small quantity of turpentine dissolved in a little spirits of wine ( tho vapor of whic h is also fatal to the moth j will entirely remove tho offensive odor, and yet be a sufficient preservative. The fumes of burning paper, wool, linen, feathers, and leather are also effectual, for the insects perish in any thick smoke but the most effectu al smoke is that of tobacco. A coat smelling but slightly of tobacco is sufficient to preserve a whole drawer. We trust our fair readers will not scold us for thus affording their hus bands or lovers an additional excuse for pre petuating a bad habit. The vapor of turpen tine, and the smoke of tobacco, are also effec tual in driving away flies, spiders, ants, ear wins, bugs, and fleas. The latter torments are so abundant on the continent, as frequently to deprive the weary traveller of his night’s rest. If ho would provide himself with a phial, con taining turpentine and spirits of wine in equal parts, and would sprinkle a few drops over the sheets and coverlid before retireing to rest, he will probably have reason to be grateful for the hint. Foreigners are in the habit of smok • ing in their bedrooms—a hahit which excites surprise and disgust in England, it will be seen however, that there is a reason for the prac tice.—Sharpe's London Magazine. Gems from Dodsley. —The man to whom God hath given riches, and a mind to employ them aright is peculiarly favored, and highly distinguished.

Anecdotes of an Eccentric Preacuf.r.— Father Andre holds a distinguished place among those original preachers, whose sermons are seasoned with bon mots and ingenious sallies. He generally mingled pleasantry with instruc. tion in order to entertain his hears. His family name was Boullanger. He was born at Paris in 1582, was of the order of reformed Augus tines, and died in 1657. Some anecdotes will i serve to illustrate at once the singularity of the man, ami the license of the times. Once while ho was preaching in a country church, a pack of cards flew out of his sleeve, and fell among the audience. Every one began laughing. The preacher, without being in the least dis concerted, called on the larger children that happened to be there, to collect them together; and as they brought them inquired how the dif ferent cards were called. The answers were all promptly given. He then put some ques tions out of his catechism, which, however, they were unable to reply to. Then address, ing the fathers and mothers—‘ls it thus,’ said he, ‘ you neglect the education of your children? I Y r ou introduce them into the vanities of life, I and by criminal carelessness, permit them to ! lose their immortal souls.’ The impression produced was powerful, and every'one preceiv. ed that the card* were brought purposely to in troducc this pathetic appeal! ! Declaiming the same day against the gallant |ry of ladies, whose manners at that time were j very corrupt, he said there was one in the con l gregation whose licentiousness was known to | him, and that he was going to point out, that ■i she might be covered with confusion for her j sins. ‘But no,’said he, checking himself,‘l ! will not blame her; Christian charity forbids.— 1 And yet, shall I compromise vice ? No! What then shall Ido to remove the difficulty ? I will hit her with my culotte,’ ( a leathern cop which was worn in his day. ) As he said this, he suddenly raised as if about to throw, and added, ‘Look ! look ! there she is just there !’ All the women in front of the pulpit dodged to “scape j the threatened blows when the preacher cried j out, • Goodness ! I thought there was only one and there are more than a hundred !’ Being requested to announce a subscription in order to raise a sufficient sum to procure the inflation of a young woman into a sisterhood, which was then required of females taking the veil, he commenced his sermon ; ‘ Sirs, I urn instt uctod to reccommend to your charity a mai den who has not cash enough to take the vows of poverty.’ The facetious monk once began a sermon with, ‘ The pope is grass, the king is grass, the queen is grass, monsieur is grass, tho cardinal is grass, you are grass, I mn grass, all flesh is grass !’ Preaching in a monastery which had recent ly been struck with lightning, Father Andre ex patiated upon the goodness of God, who took, as he would show, special care of his children. ‘ For,’said he, ‘among other evidences, con sider what has happened to this holy house in which lam preaching. The lightning struck the library and consumed it, but injured not a single monk. If however, it had unfortunately fallen upon tho dining-room or buttery, how many brethren would have been killed ! how many tears shed ! what desolation would have ! ensued ! Thanks, Omy God! eternal thanks, ( for the regard which thou dost show to thy elect.’ Turn About. —Two Yankees were strolling in the woods without arms in their possession, and observing a bear ascending a tree with its large paws, clasped round the trunk, one of them ran torward and caught the bear’s pawc, one in each hand. He instantly bawled out to his comrade : ‘Jonathan, I say go home and bring me something as fast as you can, till 1 kill the varmint, i Mind don t stay, for I’m in a fix.’ Jonathan ran off as fast as he could, but was an exceedingly long time returning. During tho interval the bear made several desperate attempts to bite the hands who held it. At length Jonathan returned. ‘Helloo Jonathan, what the deuce has kept you ?’ Jonathan replied : ‘Well, I’ll tell you, when at home, breakfast was about ready, and I gues sed it would be as well to wait for it.’ ‘Here now, Jonathan,’ said his companion, ‘come you and hold it, and I’ll kill the critter in a jiffy-.’ Jonathan seized the bear’s paws, and held the animal while the other could kill it. •Well, Jonathan have you got hold of him ?’ ‘I guess I have,’ replied Jonathan. ‘Very well hold him fast ; I guess I’ll go to dinner !’ A country clergyman once complained to his friend that upon the last Sabbath he was much annoyed by a cow Who looked in at the door, and bellowed in his face. “ Sir,” said the other, “ she saw a calf in the jiuljiit /” Further Items by the Caledonia.

The j entire forco underarms was estimated at about 35,000 men. The crowd assembled on the Place de la Concorde, and in the neighbor hood of the palace was considerable.

Shortly afterwards the cannons of the inva. lides announced the approach of the members of the Provisional Government, and the depu ties proceeded to their seats.
