If you were to see a man endeavoring all his life to satisfy his thirst by bolding an empty cup to his mouth, you would certainly despise Ids igno rance ; but if you should sec others of tiuer under standings, ridiculing the dull satisfaction of one and thinking to satisfy their thirst by a variety of gilt and golden, empty cups, would you think that these were even the wiser, or happier, or bet ter employed than the object of their contempt? Now this is all the difference that you cau see in the various forms of happiness caught at by the men of the world. Let the wit, the great scholar, the fine genius, the greut statesman, the polite gentleman, unite all their schemes, and they can only show you more and various empty appearances of happiness.— Give them all the world into their hands, let them cut and carve as they please, they can only make a greater variety of empty cups; for search as deep and look as far as you will, there is nothing here to be found that is nobler or greater than high eating and drinking, than rich dress and human applause, unless you look for it in the wisdom and laws of religion. Reader, reflect upon the vanity of all who live without godliness, that you may be earnest at the throne of grace, to be turned from the creature and seek for happiness in the Creator. The poor est Christian who lives upon Christ, and walks in daily fellowship with God, is happier than the rich est worldling. Indeed, such only are happy.— lioyutzky. Over-Worked Women. —An over-worked wo man is always a sad sight—sadder a great deal than an overworked man, because she is so much more fertile iu capacities of Buttering than a man. She has so many varieties of headaches—some times as it Jael were driving the nail that killed Sisera, into her temples—sometimes letting her work with half her brain'while the other half throbs as if it would go to pieces—sometimes tightening round the brows as if her cap-band were Luke’s iron crowu—and then her neuralgias, her back aches, and her fits of depression, in which she thinks she is nothing, and less than nothing, and those paroxysms which men speak slightly of as hysterical—convulsions, that is all, only not com monly fatal ones—so many trials which belong to her fine and mobile structure, that she is always entitled to pity, when she is placed in conditions which develop her nervous tendencies.— l>r. O. W. hoi?,us. Victoria's First Moment of Sovereignty.— W illiam the Fourth expired about midnight, at Windsor Castle. The Archbishop of Canterbury, with other high functionaries of the kingdom, was in attendance. As soon as the king had breathed his last, the archbishop quitted Windsor and made his way to Kensingtou l'ulace, the residence of the Princess Victoria, where he arrived before day light, and announced hinnelf, requesting an imme diate interview’ with the Princess. She hastily attired herself, and met the venerable prelate iu the ante-room. He informed her of the demise of the crown, and did homage to her as the sove reign of the nation. Hbe was, at eighteen, queen of the only realm, in fact or history, on which the sun never sets. She was deeply ugitated. The first words she uttered w ere these, “ I ask your prayers in my behalf.” They knelt down together, amt the young sovereign inaugurated her reign like a young king of Israel, by asking from ou high “an understanding heart to judge so great a people, who could not be numbered, not counted, tor the multitude.” Children and Flowers. —There seems a close connection between children and flowers—the chil dren ot men, and flowers, the children of the earth. Flowers constitute their great natural playthings, and the young heart rejoices over the possession of a bunch of wayside tiowers. And between the unstained mind of the child and the susceptable nature of the poet there is a strong likeness as the child loves, so loves the poet; childhood and genius alike admiring the grand and beautiful in nature, and alike regardless of the pomps and vanities of life. The child’s prattle and the muse’s tongue speak the praises of the flowers, rejoicing in their lragrance and color, and touched with sadness when the color tades and the odor has departed. The busy people of the world, active in its hard reality, intent on enterprise and speculation, have little sympathy with the child’s enjoyment or the poet's sentiment; to such, a primrose is a yellow primrose, nothing more; but it is more to the child, and more to the poet.— Ladies’ Treasury. A midshipman asked a priest to tell him the dif ference between a priest and a jackass. The priest gave it up. “One wears a cross on his hack, and the other on his breast,” said the midshipman.— “Now,” said the priest, “ tell me the difference be- ; tween a midshipman and a jackass.” The mid- i shipiuan gave it up, and asked what it was. The priest said he did not know oi any. A certain judge was once obliged to double with an Irishman in a crowded hotel, when the follow ing conversation ensued : “ Pat, you would have remained along time in the old country, before you could have slept with a judge, would you not?” “ Y'w yer honor,” said I‘at, “and I think yer hon or would have been a long time in the ould coun try before ye’d b*en a judge, too.” You may make your affections too cheap, or too dear, in dealing with your children or vour friends. Jf too cheap, none of them will value them —if too dear, all will despair of securiug them. Affections are so many moral objects, to be accorded to justice, not to favor, and never to be withheld when due, nor bestowed when unde served.—Simms. “ I want something for a broncritical nffliction,’ said Mrs. Partington to Dr. Restieaux. The doctor with that smiling urbanity which has become a feature at the north end told her that he could prepare something that be thought would help her. Filling a small bottle, he handed it to her. “ This isn’t the Pictorial Syrup, is it ?” she inquired.— “ Because,” continued she, “ that creates a nasliua, and raises mv expectations. I only want a simple lucubration for the throat.” lie assured her it was just what she wanted. She thanked him, and de parted. That tiower which follows the sun, doth so even in cloudy days; when it doth not ghine forth, it vet follows tiie hidden course and motion of it.— So the soul that moves after God, keeps that course when he hides his face—is content in all conditions and events. True greatness consists in doing what deserves to be written, in writing what deserves to be read, and in making mankind better and happier for yoorlife. Where shall vt Sleep . “ 1 feel t,l< ’ daisies growing over me,” said the dying poet, and solemn vet beautiful was the ilmught. I 0 mingle thus with Xutnre ia ler sweetest forms ol life, is not to die ; it is us tint passing of JnneN owqi building, on to the inner gate* ol Faradise.’ io be. waited tot lie air ou the crimson wings ol lire ; to leave a little dilst for token, i„ tbsf bottofii of an urn, is not King, a weary hild at rest, elo e folded in the bosom ofthe Earth. To lie beneath a billow y maple on a hillside, green, and sloping to the sun, w ith birds singing In the bought, and threshold flowers soft tolling in the i(ir, is no un pleasant thought. Tlt> fever of the world te all past, its strifes nil diifted over, even a.i, the cloud that sheds a shadyiw on the spangled heap, and passes on forever. Io turn immortal with the Arefic touch, and wear|the seamless robe of winter for a shroud ; to have the tear that parting wrings fiotn trembling Nature, lie like an imperishable jewel on the cheek ol death, has little charm. To be let gently down, -some pleasant summer’s night, iuto tiie clelt crystal of n lake, to otk’s last sleep, would not he to bid flic light “good by.” For there as in the lower sphere of tfte finished heaven, the form should lie, among the doubles ol the stars, and the shimmering of the moon. The dawn should redden there, and the great sun move quenchless through the water ; it would not be beyond the flight of day, that burial place, and yet below the storm that wrecks both sea and sky. And yet there isji quiet charm In that close fel lowship with Nature on the shore, as so simply’ told by Landor a long time ago : “ The place where soon I think to lie, In its old creviced nook hard by, Rears many a weed; If parties bring you there, will you Drop slvly in a grain or two Os wall-flower seed ?” “ I shall not see it, and, too sure, I shall not even hear that your Light step was there. But the rich odor, some fine day, \\ ill what I cannot do, repay That little care.” Solicitude for Children. Dr. Stork, in his “Home Scenes, or Christ in tho Family,” has some beautiful thoughts on a duty ol the Church, which cannot be too frequently or too impressively inculcated. We quote one as fol lows : Even in what are called the dark ages, the time ot monkish austerity and priestly sway, we see glimpses of tender solicitude for childhood. In the Gothic Cathedral, that embodiment of the middle ages, the Holy Mother and her divine child beam upon the worshiper from illuminated missals and painted windows. There by the alter stands the baptismal font; and the child of the poorest pea sant is recognized as a lamb of the Good Shepherd, and received into his fold. What would childhood have been in the dark ag* without the church ? What oilier power could have stood between inno cence and its tempter and destroyer ? Who would have withstood Herod, if the mother heart of Christianity had witheld its guardianship ? Christianity is still the guardian of childhood, for Herod still lives. His spirit is still the spirit of the worm—at ttie world’s passion and its policy.— What multiform evils are all around, to blight the innocence and purity of the young! What evils surround their path 1 What serpents are gliding among the very dowers of their spring! The child ever needs protection ; Herod ever in some form rages; Christianity, like a maternal heart, needs ever to keep its watch. The Uright Side. Look on the bright side. It is the right side. The times may be hard, but it will make them no easier by wearing a gloomy and sad coctenance. It is the sunshine and not the cloud that makes the flower, lhere is always that before or around us which should cheer and fill the heart with warmth. The sky is blue ten times where it is black once. You have troubles, it may be. So have others. None are free from them. Perhaps it is as well that none should be. They give* sinew’ and tone to life—fortitude and courage to man.— I hat would be a dull sea, and the sailor would nev er get skill, where there was nothing to disturb the surface of the ocean. It is the duty of every one to extract nil the happiness and enjoyment he can without and within him, and above all he should look on the bright side of things. What though things do look a little dark ? The lane will turn, and the night will end in the broad day. In the long run the great balance rights itself. YY'hat is wrong, right. Men are not made to hang down either heads or lips; and those who do, only show that they are departing from the paths of true common sense and right. There is more virtue in one sunbeam than a whole hemisphere of cloud and gloom. Therefore, we repeat, look on the blight side of things. Cultivate what ia warm and genial not the cold and repulsive, the dark and morose. The Iron Duke was right I)ont neglect your duty; look to the bright side ; live down prejudice. Sow largely of AYhcat. Provisions next, year will be unusually scarce and as the cotton crop is not large enough to employ all of the farm force to pick it out, it will be good policy in the planters to make large sowings of wheat, They should feel encouraged the more to do so, from the fact that the two last crops have been short, and as three short crops do not often come in succession, next year, will most probably afford an abundant yield of small grain. A large spring crop will greatly relieve the stress upon the country, and give material aid in keeping stock to finish the corn and cotton crop next summer. Those who have no seed to sow can order it from the West in time, if they will make their orders immediately, and it would not be bad policy, even for those who have plenty of seed, to make a part of their sowing of North-Western wheat. It is said by those who have tried it, that transporting grain from a few hundred miles North makes it some weeks earlier than the acclimated seed, and this will make a difference worth securing to those who raise for consumption or market next spring. At ad iso h Visitor. There is a gentle but glorious mission for every women in the world. Every women may be unos tentatiously at work, in her own home, improving, cheering, ministering to the comfort of those around her. And then she can go forth with her heart filled with loving sympathy, and gladden the home of the mourner, smoothe the pillow of the sick ; relieve the wants of the poor ; and raise the clasped hands of the little child to Heaven, as she tenches its lips to pray. Ever bearing with her the light of compassionjin her eye, which shall enable her to draw near the sufferer; the cheering smile upon her lip, which shall be a pastport to every home, and the gentle words upon her tongue, which shall fall like sweetest music upon the drooping spirit. Home Like. —Even as the sunbeam is composed of millions of minute rays, the home life must be constituted of little tendernesses, kindly looks sweet laughter, gentle words, loving counsels • it must not be like the torch-blaze of nutural excite ment, which is easily quenched, but like the se rene, chastened light which burns as safely in the dry east wind as in the stillest atmosphere. Let each l>ear the other’s burden the while— let each Cultivate the mutual confidence, which is a gift capable of increase and improvement—and soon it will be found that kindliness will spring up on eve ry side, displacing constitutional unsuitability, want of mutual knowledge, even as we have seen sweet violets and primroses dispelling the gloom of the gray set-rocks. Ei.oyrENCE.—The highest platform of eloquence is the moral sentiment. It is what is ealled affir mative truth, and has the property of invigorating the hearer; and it conveys a hint of our eternity, when he feels himself addressed on grounds that will remain when everything else is taken, and which have no trace of time, or place, or party.— Everything hostile is stricken down in the presence of the sentiments ; majesty is felt by the most ob durate.—Loiveil. ” Why Sambo, how black you are !” said a gen tleman, the other day to a negro waiter at a hotel • “ how in the world did you get so black V’ “ w, 'y, look a here, m*aa, do reason am du de day dis chile was born dar was an eclipse.” CST A. young lady at Niagara has been beard to exclaim, “ What an elegant trimming that rain bow would make for a white lace overdresst”*— Quite a poetical idea, -VOLUME XXXVIII.-NO. 31. Hoiv I Up Mui'ui’ Klug whs Taken. A letter front an officer qf the Laired States ■steamer Sun Jacinto gives the following parlicpj us of the capture ot die slaver jii.oriq'Kiiig, of. New Vork j * . . On the Bt!i of Angint at 2 o P, M. a sail to the -uuthwcst was reportett from the rmtst-hcari, find ,ilu* f'an Jacinto was immediately steered in that .lfteetioii, the vleamer being under steam vvirfr all 9-iils Carted. As soon us the Slaver saw ns, which she did as soon as we s.tw her, she hauled in ail tier steering sails and hauled up dose on a wind, hoping we would wot be üble to catch her, as that •vas her l*est point ot sailing, as ‘we afterwards as certained. Hut It was no use, ns we tired up on all our boilers-and crammed in the coalas fast as shovels could do it, tire engineers doing their duty admirably in the engine-room, as it was neeessurV to carry a heavy press of steam to catch such a. notoriously fast sailer as the Storm King is known to be. About 5 I*. M. we gained sufficiently on the chase to sec through our opera glasses (men-of war use opera glasses in preference to all others) a erowd of men on her quarter-deck, looking at ua through their glasses, apparently unable to make out who we were, as they had no knowledge of our being on the coast. All this time the slaver hoisted no colors ; so, as we were pretty near them, we brought one of our iVS-pounders to bear upon her and fired. As soon as the booming of the gun had gradually died aw.ty, like the final roll ot distant thunder, a low wail or suppressed groan came wafted across the watere towards us from the slaver, which in reality was a shout of jov from the poor negroes imprisoned in the slaver’s hold. The poor ereatures had heard our gun and instinctively knew their deliverers were at hand. ‘i he slaver still hoisted no colors, and showing no disposition to heave to we ranged alongside and : ordered her to heave instantly, when, from seeing our battery manned, and bearing on her, she let go her lee braces, running up in the wind,’ and backed her topsails. We now lowered our boats and tmarded the slaver, which we found filled with negroes, whose joy on seeing the officers from our ship cannot be described. They all looked up to the sky, (a9 they have a God whom they call a b ! g “ Gilley-Gilley,” and who they say lives there,) ana beganjtoclap their hands, keeping admirable time, simultaneously falling on their knees and chanting an African song. No prize-money could pay for the satisfaction one felt in liberating so many human beings from such a vile imprisonment. There were six hundred and nineteen slaves on board—men, girlß, women, and boys. I never saw human beings show such gratitude as the poor things did to us. The Storm King had left the coast only forty eight hours before her capture, and the day before had been chased by her Britannic Majesty’s steamer Spitfire, which fired a number of shot at her, but failed to bring her to or overtake her, and the ras cal escaped fortunately to be taken the next day by the San Jacinto. Over Dressing. —The over-dressing of American ladies in the streets, at the hotels, and in the churches, is a subject of general remark among the travelers from abroad, as well as sensible peo ple at borne; though to little purpose, it would seem, as at no period has the love of display been more couspicuous in our country. American wo men are slaves to dress; it is the bane of their life, aye and of the male victims, too, whose lives are connected with theirs. Traveling trunks, al most as large as a small house, must be carried about, filled with all sorts of finery, for a summer jaunt to watering places, and for a winter visit to a city. The father or husband vainly remonstrates; Jounced dresses and crinoline must have simple space, and there must he a variety, too, in tlie costumes. “Heaven save the ladies how they dress!’’ may we well exclaim. Why will they not become more practical f Does the most fastidious critic of female beauty admire a lady in full toi lette more than a simple dress? ‘if heautifjl, there is no need of ornaments ; if plain, she should appear without pretension. We have known la dies who have travelled through the continent of Europe, with only a small trunk to contain their wardrobe, and they found a wonderful relief in not having “ too much to wear.” An Old Citizen Cone! We are pained to announce the decease of so excellent a man as Jonathan Whiteside, Esq. who died on Lookout Mountain, at the residence of his son, W. B. Whiteside, onjSunday last. He was about ninety years of age. He was afflicted with a cancer oil bis throat which was the immediate cause of his death. He was the father of Col. A. Jas. and Dr. W. B. Whiteside. He carries with him tohis grave t,he esteem of all who knew him. it may not be inappropriate to mention here the fact that Mr. Whiteside, when Sam. Houston was a candidate for Govenor of Tennessee, and not being a freeholder was constitutionally inelligible, gave to the now illustrious hero a tract of land, which qualified him to receive the office to which lie was elected.— Chattanooga (Jarctle. Town BnnNT.—Texas is not alone in the destruc. tion of villages by fire. The Baton Rouge Gazetto and Comet states that on Wednesday night a firo broke out in the town of Port Hudson, in thn Northern part of the parish, and the entire place with the exception of one house, was reduced to ashes. The Hamburg, Ark., Reporter says that it was undoubtedly the work of an incendiary—or rather a number of incendiaries—as the place was fired, it is said, in some fifteen or twenty places at the same time, making it impossible for the citizens to arrest the progress of the flames until every house was consumed. Patriotic Sentiment. In one of Mr. Bell’s latest speeches, we fined the following patriotic sentiment, in which all men ought to concur. “ Let power,” said Mr. Bell, “go into whatever hands it may, let us save tho Union! I trust the day will never come, when it will be necessary to calculate the value of the Union. Ido not believe it will come, if the South is wise and true to herself. I would not have her yield ore jot or tittle of her rights; but l would have her make no questionable issues in ad vance, stir up no strife upon abstract questions, but do always what is just aud right upon all ques tions.” There is the calm ntterance of an honest man and a noble patriot. Will not the people vote for Bell in preference to the gentlemen of Kentucky ? t2T The Univeisalist minister who married Mrs. BurdeU-Cunningham, in California, has quit her.— Exchange.
