not, I know that while this simple receipt is attended to,
no decay of the teeth can take place. Try it.”
West Point Military Acndcmv.
From a discourse delivered on the 18th of June last,
at West Point, by Edward D. Mansfield, of Cincin
nati, a graduate of the West Point Academy, we quote
the following paragraph:
“ Os about three hundred members of tliis institution
who have served in the recent campaigns in Mexico,
twenty-six have either been kilted in battle or died in
the campaign with the army. Some of these died in
far distant California, where the waves of the Pacific
dash their waters against the rocks of the Northern
Andes; some fell on the hard fought plains of Palo
Alto and Resaca de la Palma ; some before the frown
ing heights ol’ Monterey; others at far-famed Buena
Vista ; some before the walls of San Juan de Ulua, and
some on the bloody heights of Cerro Gordo—all where
their Government called them—all in services which
their military duty required—all under the eagles of their
country, on fields of victory !”
Temperance.
A few years ago, Gen Taylor visited the Northern
States, and made this remark in conversation with a
friend . —“ In the Florida w r nr I preserved my health
solely by temperance. Where the water was very im
pure, some of the officers and men insisted on the al>so
lute necessity of using ardent spirits with it; but I al
was observed that they fired the worse for it. As for
myself, I would mix the swamp water with coarse meal
so as to clear it from sediment, and content myself with
such a beverage.”
Gen. Taylor.
A Monterey correspondent of the Cnarlestown Free
Press says, “ that Gen. Taylor has said and unthorized
his friends to say for him, that he is in the hands of the
people, and is willing to abide by their decision. Al
though a Whig, he is not willing to be nominated by
any caucus or convention, being opposed to the caucus
system.
Taylor Demonstration in Maryland.
“ The Democrats of Harford county, Md. held a
meeting last week, at which resolutions were adopted, *
to the effect that Gen. Zaclmry Taylor’s services enti- j
tie him to the highest honors which the nation can he- j
stow, and that they are prepared to support him for the
Presidency ; and farther, ‘hatthe delrgat-s to :ite Con- ‘
gressional Convention must be instructed to vote for the
nomination of no man for Congress who was not for
General Taylor for the Presidency.**
Gen. Taylor’s tottou Crop.
The Picayune of the 27th ult., says:—‘’lt will be re
collected that the plantation of Gen. Taylor above
Natchez was overflowed during the high water in the
spring. When the water ran off, cotton planted,
and we aie now happy to hear that the crop promises
as well as any in the State. In this connection we may
mention that an intelligent gentleman just from Missis
sippi informs us that the crop so far this year promises
every thing that could be desired. With no ill luck
from this time out, it will be an abundant one.”
Showers of Grape.
Capt. Brago’s Battery, to which belongs the honor
ofhaving saved the day at Buena Vista, was, wc under
stand, discharged, each gun, over tw r o hundred and fifty
times during the battle. We are told by one w'liose au
thority is unquestionable, that when the battery opened
upon the Mexican cavalry as they were making their
last and seemingly overwhelming charge, the horsemen
were so near that as the rum rods were drawn fiorn the
guns for the first fire they struck the enemy’s men and
horses. The next discharge stayed the charge, and the
third sent them to the right about.—JV. Y. Courier.
“A Litte More Grape, Captain Hragy:.”
The following anecdote we clip from to New Orleans
Delta. It is spicy and pointed :
An officer returned Irom the w ars, who w’as at a so
cial meeting last evening, w*as boasting excessively of
his own personal valor and prowess.—Just as the wine
bottle came round to him, he entered on rather a tedi
ous narrative of an attack made on him at Buena Vis
ta by some Mexican soldiers, three of whom he left
dead at his feet, two of w hom fell wounded, and the
remaining two of whom, as an Irishman would say,
runaway, lie whs so intent on blowuig his own trum
pet that he never thought of passing the wine which
stood before him. Half an hour having elapsed, and
the tale being not thou hull told, lus friend on his right,
impatient lor the wine and of liis boastful story, stretch
ing for the bottle, coolly called out—“A little more grape

The Louisville Journal pronounces the following
stanzas surpassingly beautiful:
The Spring of Life is Past.
The spring of life is pant.
With its budding hopes and Furs,
And the autumn time is coming
With ns weight of weary years—
Our joyousness is fading.
Our hearts are dimmed with care,
And youth’s fresh 11 reams of gladness
All perish darkly there.
While bliss was blooming near us,
In the heart s first hurst of spring,
While many hojs-s could cheer us,
Life seemed a glorious thing !
Like the foam upon a river,
When the breeze goes rippling o’er,
These hopes have fied forever
To come to us no more!
*Tis sad—yet sweet—to listen
To the soft wind’s gentle swell,
And think we hear the music
Our childhood knew so well;
To gaze out on the even,
And the boundless fields of air,
And feel again our boyhood’s wwh,
To room like angels there!
There are matiy dreams of gladness
That clung around the past,
And from that tomb of feeling
Old thoughts come thronging fast—
The forum we loved so dearly,
In the happy days now gone,
The beautiful and lovely,
So fair to look upon
Those bright and gentle maidens
Who seemed so formed for bliss,
Too glorious and too heavenly
For such a world as this;
Whose soft dark eyes seemed hw iniming
In a sea of liquid light,
And whose locks of gold were streaming
O’er brows so sunny bright;
Whose smiles were like the sunshine
In the spring time of the year—
Like the cbangelul gleams of April,
Thevhave naased—like hojx-—away.
Like the brightest buds of summer.
They have fallen from the stem—
Yet Oh! it is a lovely death
To fade from euiiii like them!
And yet—the thought is saddening
To muse on such ns they—
And feel that all the beautiful
Are passing last away !
That the fair ones whom we love,
Like the tendrils of the vine,
Grow closely toeach loving heart,
Then perish on their shrine !
And can we but think of these
In the soft and gentle spring,
When the trees are waving o’er us
And the flow ers are blossoming ?
For we know that winter’s coming
With his cold and stormy sky—•
And the glorious beauty round us
Is budding but to die !
Cuba.
The following article appears as the leading editorial
in the New York Sun of Friday, 22d instant.
Cuba under the Flag of the United States.—
When in Havana last winter, we had a consultation
with a meeting of the mosi influential men of that city
upon the union of Cuba to the United States, and prom
ised to lay the matter before the people of this country
as soon ns the .Mexican question had been disposed of.
Mexico, to all intents and purposes, is now in our pos
session. All parties in the United States, and even
foreign nations look upon that question as settled so far
as conquest and occupation are concerned, and we now
hasten to fulfil our promise, and that promise must be
our apology tor this article. Cuba, by Geographical
position, necessity and right belongs to the U. States;
it may and must be ours.
The moment has arrived to place it in our hands and
under our flag. Cuba is in the market lor sale, and we
are authorised by parties eminently able to fulfil what
they propose, to say that if the United States will oiler
the Spanish Government one hundred millions of dol
lars Cuba 19 ours, and that with one week’s notice the
whole amount will be raised and paid over by the in
habitants of the Island. One week is all they ask, if
our Government wifi only make the offer for them to
act upon, and which Spain is reaJy to accept. This is
no vision, but a fixed fact, of which we have seen and
now hold the most undoubted proofs. The possession
of Cuba will complete our chain of territory, and give
us the North American continent. It is the garden of
the world, the Key to the Gulf’, and the richest spot of
its size on the iace of the earth. From Florida point to
its north-eastern coast is only fifty miles, bringing the
Island almost wichm cannon shot and sight of the U. S.
Cuba yields to Spam an annual revenue of seven milli
ons ol dollars, besides supporting 25,000 soldiers, ex
pending at least a million a year upon fortifications and
paying another million in salaries to civil and military
officers—in tact her total revenue to Spain, is over ten
millions, which will double the moment she comes under
the United States.
Cuba produces the best sugar, coffee, tobacco and
tropical fruits m the world. It has gold aud silver, and
the richest copper mines known. Its harbors, surface
of the country,and climate are unrivalled, in less than
five years its revenue would more than pay the entire
purchase money asked by Spain. Cuba must lie ours !
Stretching from Florida to Yucatan, it commands the
Gull and coast of Mexico. It is larger than Ireland—
nearly as large as all the New England States, contain
ing 43,500 square miles of the most fertile soil under the
sun. To us it is indispensable. We want iu harbors
for our ships to touch at to and from Mexico—for the
accommodation of American and English transatlantic
steamers —for its products and trade, and as the grand
key to the Gulf of Mexico. Give us Cuba and our pos
sesions are complete. Spain is ready to sell, the Cu
bans ore waiting for us to make the purchase*, and to
come at once into the Union. Let the tiling be done ;
We pledge ourselves that the hundred millions will be
forthcoming to meet the offer, aud that Cuba will prove
the rishest conquest ever made by the U. States.
The Inion ami the States.
The much admired sentiment in regard to the Union
and the St. t- s given by Lieut Gov. Daniel at the Web
ster Dinner at Richmond, has been traced to its origin-
It occurs in James Montgomery’s Address to the ( Fean:
** Ah’ why hath Jehovah, in forming tle world,
With the waters divided the land,
His ramparts of risks round the continent hurled,
And cradled the deep in his hum!,
B man may trii*gnm Inn eternal command,
Ami leap o’er die bounds of his birth,
To ravage the utterm<st earth,
And violate tuitions and re!ms that should lx*
Distinct an the billows, yet one ns the sea ?'*
Love in llovlmmml and Manhood.
” The love of a boy differs from that of a man in this
—it is the won ton enjoyment of a present imperious feel
ing, from which all serious consideration of the future
is excluded. It is mere blind activity of newly-nw :ik
ened emotions. Hence the rnshnen* of early loves.—
The Hoy w ants to love ; almost any w-onmn will suffice.
Hence he is violent, capricious, inconstant, because he
onlv seeks an excitement; he tries his young wing*.— I
The tender feeling of protection, which enters so large
ly into the love of man, tiie serious thoughts of the du
ties be owes to the girl who gives up her life to him, and
U> the children the rnsy l**ur him—these, and the thou
sand minute but powerful influences winch affect the
man, are unknown to the boy.”
Influence of Women.
There is something to me,” says Byron,” very soft
ening in the presence oi women; some strange influ
ence, even if one is not in love with them. I always
feel in better humor with myself and every’ tiling clue,
it there is a woman within ken,”
IluneUing Machine.
A correspondent, writing from Michigan to the New
Y ork Era ngrh.fi, sn ys
” A field of sixty ucres was harvested in two days ns
follows: A machine was drawn into flic field by six
teen lu>r*c*, guided by as many boys is necessary. On
the front of the. machine a m m was stntioited to adjust
die forks and circular knives to the height of the wheft l
which was readily thrown back into the machine. No
more was seen of it, till another man in tin* rear part of
the machine was seen tying up well tilled sacks of pure
grain, in perfect order for the flouring mill. This huge
machine (of the best wheat) harvested and bagged three
bushels ia a minute.”
A Curious Fact.
It is a curious fact, says the Alabama Journal, that
ofthe 10'J Locofbcos who voted to censure Gen Taylor,
only about twenty-four have so far been re-elected to
Congress, and only four of these were re-elected af
ter the obnoxious vote teas given —the others having
been re-elected last fall.
Gen. Taylor and the M'liigs.
The “ Democratic Advocate,” a Locofoco paper pub
lished at Baton Rouge, the residence of Gen. T.avi.< it,
states unequivocally that Gen. Taylor whs “opposed
to the annexation of Texas on constitutional grounds,”
and that “he thinks the war with exieo could and
ought iu have been avoided.” In this opinion lie con
mas with the \\ lug purty.— Raleigh Register.

where her companions were.
‘•They have gone to see the King,” she re

“And why did you not go with them.” add
ed the King.
“1 would not give a pin to see him,” replied
the woman; “besides, the Idols who have
gone to the city will lose it day’s work, and
that is more than 1 can do; for I have five
children to whom I must give bread.”
“Very good,” said the King, putting some
money tit her hand, “you can toll your com

King came to see you.’,

Fanners take Notice.
WE have the right of a number of Counties for
Gay lord’s Patent Straw-Cutter. This ma
chine is th? greatest of the day, and no humbug. It
cuts com, oats, hay, shucks, straw, or stalks with great
rapidity, and so easily that a boy of twelve years ola can
work it. It can be attached to a gin wheel without any
extra expense, n. the fly-wheel answers for a pulley.—
The great advantage of this machine over all others, is
in tlv shape of the blade—it being concave and convex,
parting the straw in the middle and cutting both ways,
which no other blade can do. So simple is this ma
chine, than any person that can grind an axe can put
the blade in order. Any black smith can make the
blade. We shall keep one on hand lor our friends to
examine before purchasing.

Griswold’s Improved Cotton Gins.
FTWIE subscriber will continue the manufacture of
X Gins on his usual extensive 9caie, and embraces
this opportunity to thank his numerous customers for
their linfral patronage heretofore The estimation in
which his Gins are held, may be known from the fact
of his having sold more than two thousand during the
last three yean—probably ten to one over any other
Factory in the State. ‘lriisevidence of the superiority
of hia Gins, is accounted for by his being the first to in
traduce the late improvements, and keeping the lead
by yearly adding new ones. Hw first and second im
provements made the quality of cotton perfect, though
some were rather slow. His third made them suffi
ciently fist It then only remained to make them more
durable and convenient, which has been done he be
lieves effectually, by several new improvements the pre
sent year: besides, he has tlv exclusive right for the
State, with the privilege of cth r sections, to furnish
Reid’s Patent Water Boxes, which are believed to be
ten times more durable than any other, by those who
have made a fair trial of tlieni; and are infallibly se
cure against fire by friction. His fine Gins will gin
Mastodon Cotton ns well as any Saw Gin can. His
agents will visit planters generally, and exhibit speci
mens of his late improvements, and point out their ad
vantages in time for all to engage and be supplied be
fore tlie next ginning season, or engagements can be
made by letter, directed to him, Clinton, Jones county,
Georgia. Gins will he delivered at the purchaser's res
idence, in any part of tlie State except the Cherokee
counties, where they will fie left at the Depot on the
Railroad moat convenient to tlie purchaser. All war
ranted to perform well, if used according to the direc
tions sent with each.
