PROPRIETOR; October, 17, 1333 3i —If From tho American Messenger. ‘Speak Easy, Father.’ Charles ran to his father^ was bnsily employed m a vexa tious piece of work, and without thinking of the pressure on his father’s mind, asked him what he was doing. The father, more thoughtlessly, with a loud voice which had a tone of passion, re plied, *Ko matter I go away, my -sonV Charles recoiled from the cicited parent, and with faltering accents said, ‘Speak easy, father}’ and left, his lather vith a tear in his eye. How often is this, rebuke needed in the domestic circle, whefe emy phatically, ‘a soft answer turneth away wrath, bdt grievous words stir up anger.’ Not unfrequently are parents mortified and sorrowful because passionate worJs and deeds are displayed by children, and even, in maturer life, bring them to the dis grace of the public criminal, When this developemcnt of depravity was only the fruit of seeds sown in young hearts by ‘grievous words.’ ‘Speak easy, lather,’ and mother also,- and children too ; for your tones of voice shall blend with the music of a sanctified soul,. or the discord ol a heart unstrung for ever. P. C. U. : A Friendly Spirit.—An ad dress to the citizens of the United States, as recently adopted by the citizens of Glasgow, contains this friendly passage: - ‘We assure ypu that the effeCtion which tho peo ple of this country entertain for the United 1 State is cordial and sincere —that they cherish no sympathy newspaper The Care ef (he Ej(s> First, never use a desk or a ta ble with your face towards a win dow. In such case the rays of light coming directly upon the pu pil of the eyes, and causing an un natural and forced contraction there- desk is near a window, sit so that face turns from, not towards window. It is best always to >r stand, while readiftg or wri- ■, with the window behind you, next to that, with the light ing over the left side—then light illumines the paper or shti the eyeball.

As one man, they deprecate every Word and act that would cause a collision of gov ernments to issue in a collision of people, and plunge the two coun tries into, sanguinary strife.’ The Empress Napoleon gave birth to a son March 16, who re ceived the names of Napoleon Eu gene Louis'Jean Joseph, tlnd is styled the King of Algiers. The event was the cause of much out ward rejoicing in France, and even in England. The city of Paris has presented a magnificent silver cra dle for the imperial infant. The Empefor and Empress are to be godfhther and godmother to each child born on the 16lh of March m France. Each child is to re ceive a gift of 8,000 frances. All the boys must be Oiled Louis Eu gene, and all ihc girl* Eugene Louise. A sum of 100,000 frances is to be given to the poor to redeem articles from pledge. An amnesty has been declared to all political offenders who Will return and take the required allegiance. The num ber, of political exiles from France in consequence of the events of June, 1818, and December, 1851, is estimated to be about 1,400. J ust.—The British Board of Ad miralty have notified our govern- Professor Ehrenberg’s micro scope, which did such good service in procuring undeniable proof of the Simonides^ lraud, has been made use of again, in Prussia, to detect the thief that stole a barrel of specie, which had been purloin ed on one of the railways. Ohe of a number of barrels, that should an nave cumaiiitfu coni. acclamation,- without hesitancy or dispute, irt pfigfeffeuce to the clrarts of the Arctic navigators belonging to the British navy. Testimony of tHe Bench.— The Becorder of Hull, England, said, ‘To the best of my belief* no temperance man ever stood at the bar to receive judgment from this sear, in my time, at least; while I tremble to express my belief that seven out of ten who have done so, have been brought here by intox icating liquor.’ Tiie Koh-i-noor Diamond.— There is a strange superstition in India that tlie famous Koh-i-noor diamond now in possession of Queen Victoria,- entails ruin and destruction on every dynasty that possesses it.- This is its history as far back as it can be traced ; but it has been because all of its posses sors have been men of violence and crime, who ruled lawlessly and plundered ruthlessly, and their plundered wealth turned to curses and not to blessings. ^ t was luumr- on arrival at its destination to have % been emptied of its precious con tents, and refilled with sand. On Professor Ehrenberg being con sulted, he sent for samples of sand from all the stations along the dif ferent lines of railway that the specie had passed, and by means of his microscope identified the station from which the interpolated sand must hatm been taken.- The sta tion once fixed upon, it wa3 not difficult to hit upon the culprit in the small number of employes on duty there; The War.—The Richmond En quirer thus sums up the results of the European war: To sun up results; Sardinia, af ter ex hanging its credit, is dismiss ed with a reprimand for its imper tinent ifitcrfi|Esnce; the Ottoman Empire in Europe is overthrown, and Turkey has become the prey of its protectors; Great Britain has been outwitted in the cabinet, dis honored in the field, and degraded from its proud position among the nations of Europe; France has mo nopolized all the material advanta ges and military glory of the war, and is now indisputably the fore most Power of the earth; Russia is just what it was before, not di minished in its resources, nor dis paraged in character, nor curbed in its ambition, but full of young life, irrepressible energy, and con fidence in its own great destiny.’ more or >r the less. past The .7 O board her, negroes packed which amounted ,nd fifty out of five scape nouur. rar ; trade is carried litionism of the North is theoretical, and poltical. been in- their tongues and the : people they have Errors of THE PREib.—Rett* nmir that every col 1 aed fi i a newspaper contained from to twenty thousand distinct 3S of metal, the mi: isplacing of Id cause a woul at the general papers?

When Dr. Beecher’s Rule. ;r -.. -L, it, but go and do it; for if you tell it beforehand, the devil will be sure to get up some-opposition to it.’ Tiie cause of Poverty and Grime.—Of 2,391 inmates of the Baltimore Almshouse for 1855, 1- 434, or more than three-fifths, were either intemperate or the children r of intemperate parents. Of _ 410 convicts in tlie Penitentiary, 279,.or two-thirds, were reported as intem perate or moderate drinkers; and of 19 children in the House of Re fuge, 10 had one or more parents intemperate, and 11 are reported as having drank ardent spirits, most of them to intoxication. PoilK-TRADK OF THE WEST.— During the winter of 1S55-0 the number of hogs packed in Ohio, lllinoise, Tennessee, Kentucky, Missouri, Indiana, Wisconsin, and Iowa was 2,430,887, being au iu- increasc of 342,845 over the previ ous season; the average increase of weight over the last year was 11 per cent. Tlie number of ^ hogs shipped to tlie east was 491,212— Leing au increase of 1-34,46i -over the last year. * —The New Jersey Geological Re port shows that the Atlantic is steadily, and rather rapidly, en croaching upon the land on its coast. At Cape Island the surf has eaten inwards fully a milo since the Revolution. Along the Bay shore in Cape May the marsh Wears away at the rate of a rod in .two years.- One of the beaches upon the coast is mentioned a* having moved inward one hundred yards in the last twenty years.— It is also the opinion of the oldest observers that the tide rises higher upon the eastern New Jersey up lands than formerly. The Internal Fire Theory.—It is stated, in the Bibliotheca Sacra that Professor Guyor, of Cambridge, in tends to publish an exposition of the creation of the Universe upon the basis of the nebular hypothesis, embracing the internal fire theory as one that can be sustained. It is not contended that the evidence in fa* vor of the centre of the earth being a mass of fire is of a positive nature, as in that case the reasoning would cease to be hypothetical. But the evidence for the affirmative'is re garded as accumulative, and to such a degree that it has been consid ered by a vast majority in the scientific world, almost conclusive. Even admitting what is alleged as the cause of the high temperature of sorilie’s and mines, it is arsrued that it by no means foliow3 tDat to tne same orgin may be traced the mighty stores by which rivers ot fire are poured from the bowels of the earth. A wealthy House.—The oclj ebr.ited banking house of the Roth childs loaned during the past vc r to England, $80,000,000 ; to Tur key, $40,000,000; to Sardinia, $10,000,000; to Austria, $120,000,- 000; to Russia in two loiths, $230,- 000,000; to.Englami on exchequer bills, $35,000,000. Dr. Whitefield was accused ot rambling in his discourses by one of his hearers, to which he replied, ‘If you will wander to the devil, I must ramble after you.’ Power of Imagination.—A man who had been sentenced to death at Vienna, was offered par don if he would pass the night m a bed of a cholera patient who had died; he did so, and in about four hours he was seized with vomiting violent-cramps, and all the symtonn of cholera. His life was saved, but he was greatly astonished when in formed tliat the bed \i as perfectly pure.
