“ How Heuiitliitl Is Earth.”
BY MRS. SIOOI'RSiY.
Oh God ! how beautiful is earth,
In sunlight or in shade ;
Her forests with their waving arc[),
Her flowers that gem the glade.
Her hillocks, white with fleecy flocks,
Her fields uith grain tliat glow,
He. sparkling rivers, deep and broad,
T-fiat through the valleys flow.
Her crested waves that clash the shore,
And lift her anthem loud,
Her mountains with their solemn brow*
That woo the yielding cloud.
0 God! iiow beautiful is life
That thon dost lend us here,
W ith tinted hopes that line the cloud,
And joys that gem the tear;
Wiih cradle hymns of mothers yonhg,
And tread of youthful feel,
That scarce, in their elastic bound,
Bow down the grass flowers sweet;
With brightness round the pilgrim’s staff,
Who, at the set of sun,
Beholds the golden gates thrown wide,
And all the work well done.
But if this garth which changes mar,
This life to death that leads,
Are made so beautiful by Hint
From whom all good proceeds,
How glorious must that region be
Where all the pure and blest,
Front chuuce and fear and sorrow free,
Attain eternal rest.
The Heat Way lo Endure Matrimony.
Timothy Titcomb writes as follows on what is
called, with exquisit irony, the divine institution :
I suppose there is a modicum of romance in
moat iiaturea,and that if it gathers about any event,
it is that of marriage. Most people marry their
ideals. There is more or less fictitious and falla
cious glory resting upon the head of every
which the inchoat husband beiieves in most men
and woman manufacture perteciion in their mates
by a happy process of their imaginations, and then
marry them. This of course wears away. By the
time the husband has seen his wife eat heartily of
pork and beans, and with her hair frizzled, and
her oldest dress on, full of the enterprise of over
hauling things, he sees that she belongs to the same
race as himself. And she, when her husband gets
up cross iu the morning, aud undertakes to shave
himself with cold water and a dull razor, while his
suspenders dangle at his heels, begins to see that
tnau is a very prosaic animal. In other words,
there is such a thing as a honeymoon, of longer or
shorter duration ; aud w hile the moonshine lasts,
the radiance of the seventh heaven cannot com
pare with it. It is a very delicate delirium—a
febrile mental disease which like the measles, never
returns. -
When the honeymoon passes away, setting be
hind dull mountains, or dipping silently into the
stormy sea of life, the trying hour of marriage life
has coute. Between the parties there are no more
illusions. The feverish duxiro or punaesstem lias
gone, and all excitement receded. Then begins or
should, the business of adaption. If they hud that
they do not love one another as they thought they
did, they should double their assiduous attentions
to one another, and be jealous ol everything wbich
tends in the slightest way to separate them. Life
is too precious to be thrown away in secret regrets
or open differences. And let me say to every one
to whom the romance of life has fled, and who are
discontented in the slightest degree with their con
ditions aud relations, begin this reconciliation at
once.
Renew the attentions of earlier days. Draw
your hearts close together. Talk tlte thing all over.
Acknowledge your faults to one another, and de
termine that henceforth you will he all in ail to
each other; and, my word for it, you shall find in
your relation the sweetest joy earth has for you.—
There is no other way for you to do. If you are
happy at home, you must be happy abroad ; the
matt or woman who has settled down upon thecoß
viction that he or she is attached for life to an un
congenial yoke fellow, and that there is no way of
escape, has lost life ; there is no effort too costly
to make which can restore to its setting upon the
bosom the missing pearl.
Inarming to Advantage.
We heard a few days ago, of a sale, by one of
our Jefferson county Farmers, that looks to us,
in these days of “short crops,” more like a paying
business than we have heard of in East Tennessee.
During the past week, Mnj. L. D. Franklin sold on
his farm in Jefferson county, 114 Mules and 0 Hor
ses, lor the aggregate sum of EIGHTEEN THOU
SAND SIX HUNDRED AND TWENTY DOLLARS,
being an average of |l5O 00 per head. This sale,
we can assure our readers, is nothing unusual for
that gentleman—and we mention the fact to show
that we have Farms in East Tennesse eapable of
producing, besides thousands of bushels of Wheat
and Corn, aud hundreds of Cattle and Hogs, and
Sheep, even Mules and Horses to tlte value above
stated. Agricultural pursuits are not only noble
in themselves, but profitable in the highest degree;
aud it affords us pleasure to chronicle the suc
cess of our farmers. We hope that such sales as
this will stimulate our farmers to raise more stock;
and we are certain they will stimulate strangers of
intelligence and capital to settle among us. East
Tennessee is the garden-spot of the South and
Southwest—it is the Switzlaud of America! A
highly favored country ; its water is pure, its air
salubrious, its clime healthful, it soil productive,
and its women unsurpassed for beauty activity and
devotion to their husbands! —Knoxville Whig.
Senator Seward In Minnesota.
A dispatch from St. Paul, the 18th says: Sena
tor Seward spoke here to-day at great length.—
He said he looked to tbe acquisition of British
America, Russian America and Spanish America,
and prophesied that the time would come when
New York would cease to be the Empire State,
and Pennsylvania cease to be the Keystone State,
as Virginia has already ceased to be the Old Do
minion. The New Dominion, the Empire State
and Keystone State would be hereafter in the
Mississippi valley.
Thk “ Press” on Fusion. —The Pennsylvania or
gan of Judge Douglas, the Press, comes out plain
ly and without equivocation, against any sort of
compromise with the friends of Mr. Breckinridge.
It says:
“ It is impossible for any party to be more posi
tively and unequivocally committed for anything,
than the supporters of Douglas are against any re
cognition whatever of the Presidential aspirations
of Mr. Breckinridge.”
The man once accused goes forth into society
never the same as before ; he keeps his position—
lie practises his profession—his friends know him
to be true and honest—but for years after the ob
livivious world, rememboring only the accusation,
and forgetting the fullness of the refutation, asks,
“But were there not some suspicious circum
stances ?”
Old Buck Exerting Himself for Bell.— The
Postmaster at Keokuk, Mo., Col. Patterson, was
removed a few days ago, not for loving Democracy
less, but for loving Douglas more, and Mr. Jamie
son, a 801 l and Everett man, appointed in his
stead. This is the first good appointment “ Old
Buck” has made since he become President. We
presume the old fellow perceives that at the 4th
of March next, all tbo Postmasters will be Bell
and Everett men, and that he might as well appoint
a few of them himself, to lighten Mr. Bell’s future
labors.— St. Lonis Xewx.

of the Fillmore men, the no chance cry, is now
put to the lips of the Breckinridge-Yancy wing of

Agriculture aud Women.
An American gentleman who la tel v visited Enr
artd was struck with the interest manifested Lv
lad.es, including those of the highest rank in *<,l
‘ll' ?’ ,ne °f these the Duchess of Portion.),
; < “'’‘ yd perfect fanuhartty with the minutest d.-
U.liol farm management and work, showing her
American guest over the whole of the Duke’s laree
estate, and explaining to him Uq- various processes
l|, d methods ot cultivation.
We could wish that our American ladies wou'd
adopt one of the few aristocratic tastes and habi-s
winch sit gracefully upon republican women, and
which would he ol equal advantage to the interests
of agriculture ami to their own delicate physical
organizations. A great deal of cant is uttered in
these days about the mission of women, but when
eier we hear an attenuated, dyspeptic lemale. talk
ing in this wise, wo feel sure that the daily hand
ling of a broomstick,in a peaceable manner, or the
charge of a kitchen garden, would soon put her
upon the track most useful for herself and for
society. When Rome was youug and virtuous the
kitchen garden was always placed under the care
of the mother of Ihe family. In Sparta, the wo
men, fit to be the mothers or heroes, cultivated the
soil, whilst the Inen were fighting the battles of
their country. Indeed, from the earliest period in
the annals of our race, woman has aided by her
counsels, and sometimes by her labors, in bringing
agriculture to a state of perfection. The laws
which Osiris gave to Egypt were not as valuable to
that country as those precepts in agriculture, those
instruction- in emhankmeuts, irrigations and’drain
tngs, which Isis, his ()ueen gave to the Egyptians
and which enabled them to derive so much benefit
from the deposits of the Nile. Ceres, defiled by
the Greeks, made tier people acquainted with the
use of wheat and the mode of cultivating it. To
an Empress of China we are indebted for the niul
betry tree and the rearing of silk worms. Woman
of late years has demonstrated her capacity of shin
ing iu many spheres once considered the peculiar
province of man. Miss Herschel has discovered
comets; Mrs. Somerville laid open the mathematical
structure of the universe ; some have analyzed the
chemical relations of nature in the laboratory, and
others investigated the laws of social relations.
With such a great amount and variety of power,
may we not augar the most benficient results to
agriculture, if the women of our country, by their
sympathy, encouragement and co-operation, by
their studies and counsels, would prove themselves,
as did the women of old, helpmeets to him whom
God has ordained to cultivate the earth ?
Let us hope that the approaching Agricultural
Fairs throughout the country will result in attract
ing universal attention to the encouragement of
agriculture. In his last message to Congress, Pres
ident Washington said:
“ It will not be doubted, with reference either
to individual or national welfare, agriculture is of
primary importance in proportion as nations ad
vance in population and other circumstances of
maturity ; this truth becomes more apparent and
renders the cultivation of the soil more and more
an object of public patronage.
“ Institutions for promoting it grow up, sup
ported by the public purse, and to what object can
it be dedicated with greater propriety ? Among
the important means to this end, none have been
attended with greater success than the establish
ment of boards composed of proper characters,
charged with collecting snd diffusing information
enabled, by premiums and small pecuniary aids, to
encourage and assist a spirit of discovery and im
provement.
“ This species of establishment contributes
doubly to the increase of improvement, by stimu
lating enterprise aud experiment, and by drawing
to a common centre the results everywhere of in
dividual skill and observation, and spreading them
thence over the whole nation. Experience accord
ingly has shown that they are very cheap instru
ments of immense national benefits.”
And yet this parting counsel of the Father of his
Country seems to have fallen on deaf ears. Whilst
nine-tenths of the American population live by
agriculture, the word cannot he found on the sta
tutes of the nation. From 17Sy to 183> there was
no end of the provisions for the protection of man
ufactures—a question which has occupied as large
a space in public atiention as if nine-tentli9 of the
population were engaged in that vocation instead
of agriculture. From 1810 to 1860 we expended
more than a hundred and fifty millions upon repairs,
increase and support of the navy for the protec’-
tion of our commerce, but not a dollar has ever
been given for the direct encouragement of agri
culture, that calling by which our countrymen live
and upon the success of which in America the
world sometimes depends for deliverance from
starvation. —Baltimore American.
Would Lincoln’s Election Justify Seces
sion.
e will allow the lion. Wm. L. Yancey to an
swer this question. He is certainly a good witness
with the feeders, and we therefore offer his testi
mony on the question. At a meeting of the South
ern Commercial Convention of 1868, Mr. Yancey
delivered a speech, which, among other things, he
said:
“I say with all difference to my colleague, (Mr.
Hilliard) that no more inferior issue could be ten
dered to tbe South, upon which we should dissolve
the I’nion, than the loss of an election. If in the
contest of 1800 for the Presidency, Seward should
receive the legal number of votes necessary to elect
him according to the forms of the Constitution
and the law, gentlemen, I say, that then will be
the time to dissolve the Union. If that is made
the cause of disunion, I say to them I will go with
them, but I will feel that I am going in the wake
of an inferior issue; that there was a banner over
me that is not of the kind I would wish. When I
am asked to raise the flag of revolution against the
Constitution, lam asked to do an unconstitutional
thing, according to the Constitution as it now ex
ists ; I am asked to put myself in the position of a
rebel, of a traitor; in a position where if the Gov
ernment should succeed and put me down in the
revolution, I and my friends can be arraigned be
fore the Supreme Court of the United States—
which would be the creature of Seward, as he has
already given notice in the Senate—and there sen
tenced to be hanged for violating the Constitution
and the laws of my country. And if I should be
asked why sentence should not be passed on me,
I could not then, as I can now in reference to past
issues—l could not say then even to the bloody
judges who would sit upon the bench—my hands
are guiltless of wrong against the Constitution of
my country, and I appeal to an enlightened pos
terity, to the judgment of tbe world, to vindicate
my name and memory, as Emmett said, my country
shall have taken her place once more an equal
among the nations of the earth. Why am I ready
to go with you ? (for disunion). Because, in my
judgment, the Union is now dissolved; because we
have a government, but not the Union which the
Constitution made.” &c.
The Duties of American Statesmen.
Many years ago, the Hon. John Bell, iii a speech
in the House of Representatives, thus defined the
duties of American statesmen :
“To calm the rising elements of discontent; to
assuage the feverish symptoms of tbe body politic
is the business of every American statesman. An
American statesman ! Who and what are the du
ties of an American statesman at this day ? They
are, or they ought to account themselves, the
high priests of liberty,administcringjier rights for
the benefit of her disciples in every country —for
this favorite people first, then for all nations.—
Such is tbe high and noble calling of an American
statesman. What is the first great care of an
American statesman ? To preserve our free insti
tutions. I will not go into an argument to show
that the only effective mode of discharging this
great trust is to preserve and cherish the Union.
That is an axiom in American politics, I trust too
firmly established to be overthrown by the theories
of any new professors in the seience, however dis
tinguished for genius aud talents. What is the
next great duty of an American statesman? So
to administer their offices, as to secure comfort
and happiness to the greatest possible number of
the ciazens of this free country. These- are the
whole laws and prophets for the guidance pf our
statesman. These are tbe sum cf all the com
mandments in the book of our political faith.”
Mr Oliver T. Beard, the Breckinridge Democratic
candidate for the New York Legislature in the
third Assembly District of Brooklyn, made his
appearauce at a Republican meeting in that city
on Thursday evening last, and publicly gave in
his adhesion to Lincoln and Hamlin.
VOLUME XXXVIII.—NO. 29.
I'lffUl EitVcU Os lil£llt.
Sir James Wylie, late physician to the Emperor
of Russia, attentively studied the effects of light
as a curative agent in the hospitals of St. Petes s
hurg; and he discovered that the nnmber of pa
tients who were cured in rooai3 properlv lighted,
wan tour times greater than that of those confined
in dark rooms. This led to a complete reform in
ighnng the hospimN in Russia, and with the mint
beneficial results. In all cities visited by the chol
era, it was universally found that the greatest mini
her ol deuths tool; place in narrow streets, and on
i tie sides ot those having a northern exposure,
where the salutary, beams of the sun were exclu
ded. The inhabitants of the southern slopes of
mountains are letter developed and more healthy
than those who live on the northern sides; white
those who dwell in secluded valleys are generally
subject to peculiar diseases and deformities or per
son. These different results are due to the agency
ol light, without a full supply of which plants and
animals maintain but a sickly and feeble existence.
Eminent physicians have observed that partially
deformed children have been restored by exposure
to the son and open air. As scrofula is more pre
valent among the children of the poor, this is at
tributed by many persons to their living in dark
and confined houses, such diseases being most rum
mon among those residing in underground tene
ments.
The health statistics of all civilized countrio
have improved greatly the past century. This mav
be justly regarded as due to the superior construc
tion of houses, by admitting more light into them.
The'old-fashioned dwellings were built with narrow,
dwarfish windows; and as glass, until late years,
was very dear, its application to windows was pro
portionably limited. Dwelling houses of the pres
ent day are generally built with windows of four
times the dimensions of those belonging to those
ol the olden times; and the streets of oui cities,
upon which houses depend so much for their light,
are made much wider than those of a former age.
Light is now more valued, for its influence is bet
ter understood than was the case fifty years ago ;
and the most gratifying results have followed.—
But we are not at the end of city improvments yet;
as it is felt, in almost all our cities, that if the
streets (even the broadest of them,) were twice
their present width, a general benefit would be the
result. — Pennsylvania Inquirer.

We alluded on Monday last to the solemn dec
larations made in the years 1851 and's2 by pa
triots of all parties against the renewed agitation
of the slavery question in any form. It has since
occurred to us that we omitted to eite one of the
manifestations put forth to this effect in the House
of Representatives, when called to vote upon the
following resolution, introduced into that body on
the 2'2d of March, 1852, by the Hon. Joseph W.
Jackson, of Georgia :
“ Resolved, That we recognize the binding effi
cacy of the compromises of the Constitution, and
believe it to be the intention of the people gen
erally, as we hereby declare it to be ours individu
ally, to abide such compromises, and to sustain
the Jaws necessary to carry them out —the provi
sion for the delivery of fugitive slaves and the act
of the last Congress for that purpose iucluded—
and that we deprecate all further agitation of ques
tions growing out of that provision, of the ques
tions embraced in the acts of the last Congress
known as the compromise, and of questions gen
erally connected with the institution of slavery , as
unnecessary , useless and dangerous ”

Among the names of those who voted in the
affirmative our readers will not fail to recognise
that of Mr. Breckinridge, one of the Democratic
candidates for the Presidency at tbe present time,
and who, if we may judge from the appeals now
made in his favor at the South, on the ground of
“ questions generally connected with the institu
tion of slavery,” is in some danger of lending his
name to au “ agitation” voted by him, with great
truth and justice in 1852, “ to be unnecessary,
useless, and dangerous.” What his opinions on
this same subject were no later than six or eight
months ago may be learned from the following
statement, made in his well known speech deliver
ed at Frankfort, Kentucky, on the 21st of Decem
ber last:
“ I do not hesitate to say that the aim of every
good citizen should be to keep the question of
slavery out of Congress. Its agitation there has
been productive only of evil to us, and that con
tinually. In the present condition of public af
fairs I can see no motive to thrust the Territorial
question on tbe Congressional arena that has its
origin in a feeling of loyalty to the Union. At
present the slavery question, or this aspect of it,
is not before Congress. No Southern Senator or
Representative proposes legislation upon it. No
complaint of violated rights comes from any Ter
ritory. No evidence is offered that the Constitu
tion, the laws, and the courts are not oompetent
to protect personal right and private property.—
Hence, while I would never abandon a constitu
tional right, especially after it had been judicially
determined, I never would prematurely raise any
question to distract the country, when no voice de
mands it, North, East or West.”
Our readers will, of course, understand that we
do not reproduce these passages from Mr. Breck
inridge’s political history in order to convict him
or the organization he represents of “ inconsis
tency,” but simply to show the grounds on which
the Constitutional Union party may be pardoned
for iu caution and hesitation in a matter admitted
by its Democratic adversaries to Be so grave, be
cause involving an agitation pronounced in ad
vance to be “ unnecessary, useless, and danger
ous.”
Hon. Joshua Hill addressed a mass meeting o*
the Bell and Everett men last week at Baltimore.
A correspondent of the Richmond 11 lag says:
The First speaker was non. Joshua Hill, of Geor
gia, who had but just arrived in the city. In his
clear and distinct voice he held the multitude spell
bound for upwards of an hour, in one of the most
fervent, patriotic, conservative, national, Union
speeches, ever delivered by man. It had the ring
of the old Clay and Webster days—a speech that
does him and the Btate of Georgia,which he ropro-
Benta in Congress, great credit.

of Millard Fillmore, a 9trong Bkll-Everett man
and in favor of the Union ticket in New York, ia

against Spalding, the present Black Republican
incumbent. He has our sincere wishes for his sue*
