[Respce[ fifty dedicated to J>r. T. S. Powell , of tl.e
A tlautet Medical Cotleyc. ]
, Tiie greaie.-t satirist of me present day uttered
1 no ili natiired sarcasm when he said that the true
?! ntiemau was rarely to be found. Even with the
bro idest signification which any assign to the
term, the number is small ; lift tiie standard to Its
P’Oper elevation, and how very few could pas?. —
Many exhibit in their character some elements of
; gentleman : but one in whom they are all com
bined in a peifeet and harmonious consistency, is
mere easily described than found. Yet U this not
a height ot excellence above human attainment.
Wjgpre not about to paint a picture from the im
agination ; but will rather attempt a faithful por
, irai ure of such as have lived and we will
live again. It is true that every man cannot be a
gentleman. The obstacle, however, is not that
the qualities are unattainable, but that their na
tures are too defective.
Public opinion has undergone considerable
changes within the last hundred year?, as to
w hat constitutes a gentleman. During the ages
of chiva'iy, no man could claim that title who
would bear the slightest insult, and who was not
willing to shed the blood of his nearest friend for
the most fiivclous provocations. These knights
would be called swell? or bullies, and be read out
from genteel society; yet in their kindness to the
unfriended, their gentleness to woman, and their
conscientious regard for what they call honor, we
recognize elements of the character of him whom
v.e are about describing. Changes in the manner
of the people have in some degree modified the
meaning ot the word ; but there are certain prin
ciple? which have always been a/id must always
be Cvsential to tire formation oi a true gentleman.
To be a gentleman now, requires some qualities
which it did not then, but the moral substratum
of the character must be the same.
One of the chief of these principles is a genuine
refinement of manners ; not that polish merely
which education can impart, and often serves
only as a hollowness and deceit, but that true po
liteness which has its oiigin in the heart. The
possession does not depend on outward circum
stances. Many an artizau in hi.? shop exhibits a
form of politeness at one. mote graceful and more
pleasing than was ever seen in tiie saloons of Pa
ris. The true gentleman dots not show his refine
ment by a slavish observance of etiquette, nor by
a cultivation of those nice little eleg-tces which
prolessors of deportment enjoin. Naturally well
bred, he manifests none of the stiffness and affec
tation from which acquired manners can never be
w holly freed. lie will be courteous, not simply
that he may be agreeable, but for the s.ke of oth
ers to whom courtesy is due. All his acts ami
words w ill be marked by a considerate regard for
the feelings, tastes and even prejudices of those
with whom he is thrown. He never wounds by a
reckless piece of sarcasm. Nor ever gives an in
sult from an impulse of hasty passion, and there
fore, it he quarrels, the blame lies with his oppo
nent. Ho does not treat the poor with contemp
tuous haughtiness and bow to the rich with cring
ing servility. He applies to every one the test of
merit, and strives to treat all according as they
deserve—bowing with more friendly politeness to
the poor dress maker who walks the street in her
plain ginghams, than to the countess *w ho flashes
in diamonds that are the price of her guilt.
Intelligence is an important requisite of a gen
tleman—perhaps, not wntf!if; Uhl one
•'•*’** metres tn a very eminent degree to heighten
the other qualities. We do not mean that one
should hr learned in all the arts nn.l ‘10101100?.
lie may be iguraut of all the learning of the
schools, and of ail the wise nothings which they
impart. But without these, a man may be learned.
He may make men and nature the volume of his
study, and may store his mind with the rich treas
ures which observation and experience afford. —
He however seeks no knowledge for the m re pur
pose old splaying it : for the true gentleman is
never a pedant. All the flattery that he ever pays
and it is a flattery of the most delicious kind —is
that ot appearing less learned than those with
whom he associates. His language is always
chaste, modest, and refined. No words of profan
ity ever drop from his lips, no coarse jests, no low
vulgarisms, lie never deems it necessary to for
tify every assertion that lie makes by some impre
cation of eternal wrath upon himself] and be can
always find adjectives enough for his purpose
without consulting the vocabulary of oaths. He
never affirms his assertions with an offer to bet
some large sums, nor does he rely upon concealed
weapons to sustain his truthfulness.
Hut without these aids to induce belief, he is
always believed ; for the true gentleman is a mor
al man. lie detests vice because it is low, mean
and degrading ; he loves virtue because of its
its own inherent beauty, and because its tendency
is to elevate and enuoble. He is truthful, not as
a matter of expedience merely, but because lie ad
mires the majesty of truth, and its superiority to
ail the forms of falsehood. In his dealings with
ids fellow men, lie is free, candid and open, never
striving to overreach, never stooping to deceive.
; Up is not plausibility itself in speech and utterly
and unscrupulous in deed. He acts honestly not
because it is the best policy, or because he finds
fair dealing a good business quality, but because
honesty is u high and most essential principle of
morality. In his struggle for success, there is no
trickery, no faithlessness, no injustice. Unaltera
bly true to the friends whom he has grappled to
his soul w ith hooks of steel, he envies not his ri
vals, hates not his foes. He is willing for all to
k n ow what he is, and glad to have them make the
examination. Not that lie considers himself fault
less, and therefore invites admiration of his superi
or excellences; but fie is conscious of entertain
ing no principle and performing aio action which
he is unwilling to have known.
But his morality is not confined to his conduct
towards his fellow men, but takes a higher and
purer range. He may not profess to have experi
enced the regenerating and sanctifying influences
of religion, but its precepts govern his heart and
control his actions. He never scoffs at it, never
ridicules its professors, never treats its ordinances
with disrespect. Should ids reasoning have
brought him to entertain different views of divine
truth from those of others, he is neither forward
nor higgotted in the expression of his opinions.—
He does not pronounce all hypocrites who do not
come up to liis standard, nor does he exclude from
the pale of Christian fellowship all who differ with
1 him in nonessentials. From such a course he is
| restrained by that modesty that distinguishes his
whole character. Whatever be his position,
whether minister, layman or non-communicant,
his conduct is ever characterized by a kindly
courtesy towards others, and a hightoned morali
ty marks his whole deportment.
But his virtues are of a positive character;
hence the true gentleman is a man of work. He
does not waste his life in idleness because neces
sity doe? not apply her lash to drive him to exer
tion. Selfishness forms no part of his nature. —
He does not desire to live for himself alone, nor
to labor solely for his individual benefit. His
heart beats sympathetically with the great heart
of his race, and whenever he cun do anything to
promote their welfare or increase their happiness,
lie does it cheerfully. Actuated by this high mo
tive, he fears no peril, shrinks from no huruships.
If duty requires, lie w ill encounter deat h on the bat
tle field, or brave the stormy dangers of the ocean
with the same alacrity that he performs the unob
trusive duties of home. Ir, the ignoble strife fer
wealth and power lie cannot consistently engage,
lie does despise these things, for he knows that
they can add to his happiness, and increase his
ability to do good ; but he prefers that they
should eome as the reward of merit—lather than
strive for them as many do, with a greedy and un
scrupulous ambition. Though thus pussing by al
most unheeded what the majority of mankind are
most anxious to attain, lie govs not without re
ward, for tin* world, blind as it is in many of its
judgment?, permits not worth like this to go un
acknowledged.
Compared with the character which we have de
scribed, how sinks into insignificance the D’Or
gays and Brumrntl?, whose highest aspirations
were to be considered fine gentlemen, but who
mistook wholly the elements that constitute that
character! They serve as mournful illustrations
of the fact that talents of a high order may be
rendered useless by vanity and frivolous ambition.
They had in their constitutions enough of the pute
gold to keep tkm from becoming clowns or vil
lains but not enough to render them gentlemen.
But he whom we have described, whether found
in a workshop or on a throne, is the nobleat type
of humanity which -he world has ever known.—
More honor is he to the Bible and its teachings
than all the Monks who ever counted beads, and
all the anchorite* who ever buried is
desert wilds. He is a living, acting evidence of
its truth and power. Rising su|/erior to all the
corrupting influences that would draw him earth
ward, he stand? erect, the express image ol his
Creator; a moral giant, grand and majestic; an
enlightened philanthropist aud a Chiistian Hero

The distinguishing mark of this malady from
other diseases of the throat, is the formation of a
membrane which increases gradually until the pa
tient is strangled to death. It is sometime? ae
eomp.inied with ulceration and great bodliv pros
tration. To prevent the formation of this mem
brane is to arrest and cure the disease. The Cin
cinnati Press gives the following simple rented? :
In the early stages of the complaint, which is al
ways accompanied by a soreness and swelling of
the throat, let the patient use a simple solution ol
salt and water, as a gargle, every fifteen minutes.
At the same time* moisten a piece of flannel with a
solution ot the same kind, made as Warm as the
patient can bear it, and bind it around his throat,
renewing it as often ns tho gargle is administered,
and in the meanwhile, sprinkle fine salt between
the flannel and the neck. Use inwardly some
tonic or stimulant, either separately, or if the pros
tration be great, use both together. The treat
ment, as my be seen, is extremely simple, and,
il used in the earlier stages of the disease, wi!i ef
fect a complete cure.
Weight or Hurt rest Persons.—At the Me
chanics lair in Boston, 10,000 adult people were
weighed on Howe’s Standard Scales, and the av
erage weight of the women was 116 pounds, ft
ounces, and of the men 146 pounds, 13 ounces.—
At the State Fair in Maine, about 4,000 adult per
sons were weighed on the same scales, the women
averaging 126 pounds, 6 ounces, and the men 152
pounds. This shows the women of Maine to
weigh 9 pounds, 0 ounces, and the men 5 pounds
3 ounces more than those of Massachusetts.
It is known that in the early part of our Revolu
tionary war, Mr. Wesley, a? a British subject took
strong grounds against the Americans, although I
he afterwards altered his rnirtd, and wrote a letter
to the Premier, Lord North, and to the Secretary
of the Colonies, Lord Dartmouth, remonstrating
against the war and pleading for the American
cause. He declared in that letter, “in spite of all
his long-rooted prejudices as a churchman and loy
alist,” he could not avoid thinking that they, “as
an oppressed people, asked for nothing more than
their legal rights, and the most modest and inof
fensive manner the nature of the thing would
allow.”
A secular contemporary, in an article on
“Preaching ami Hearing,” lias this paragraph :
“A lady, recently giving her views of the preach
ing of a minister to whom she had listened several
times, said, “I thought it was the business of the
minister to feed the sheep. This man does not
feed us. He throws only clubs ami stones at us
and sends us bleating and hungry home.” Many a
one might gather a useful hint from this ns to the
proper mode of dealing with his flock. Harsh
ness, severity, and fault-finding accomplish but
little good in the family, the Church, or the
world.”
The Feeling Before Lincoln’s Election.—ln
laying the corner-stone of the University of the
kouit, (i., jvnurniirr,) ort the iotn of October,
1860, in the presence of seven Episcopal Bishops,
viz : of Florida, North Carolina, Alabama, Geor
gia, Louisiana, and two others, there were deposi
ted in the .said stone, the Holy Bible, the Book of
Common Prayer, ami the Constitution of the Unit
ed States. When the latter was about being
placed in the Stone, Bishop F.lliotr, of Georgia,
said : “I next deposit in this corner-stone the
Constitution of the United States, the tiine-hom.rod
bond which binds together the States of this Con
federacy, to testify that the University of the
South, whilst it holds the Church superior to the
State in all strictly spiritual matters, acknowledges
herself subordinate to it in all matters of trovern
ment and of law. ditto Perpetua .” As these
words were uttered, all hearts in the circle joined
in an earnestly, audibly murmured, Amen.
A Wori> to the South and North.—The New
York Herald concludes an editorial upon the as
peet of political affairs with the following practical
suggestions:
According to the present appearances there are
but five States resolved upon secession. These
are South Carolina, Georgia, Alabamu, Florida and
Mississippi. The other slave States of the South
are in favor of remaining in the Union, at least
until some overt aggression be made upon their
rights. A secession of these five States, therefore,
will have the immediate effect of giving the Re
publican majorities in both Houses of Congress,
and w ifi have the prospective effect of weakening
the political influence of the institution of African
slavery. They would, therefore, be playing di
reclly into the hands of the adversary, just as they
did play into his hands when they seceded from
the Democratic Conventions at Charleston and
Baltimore. And what do the election figures
prove? They prove two things; first that the Un
ited opposition vote, North and South, exceeds
the Republican vote by eight hundred thousand :
and second, that the opposition vote in the free
States out-numbered, by 550,000, the opposition
votes in the slave States. Here is the table :

A Voice from AludiMoit’a Tomb for the
Freorrvation of the Union.
The following was among the last productions
that emanated from Mr. Madison’s pen. It was
penned not long before his death :
Adi’ice to iny Country. —As this advice, if it ev
er see the light, will not do so till 1 atu no more,
it may be considered as issuing from the tomb,
where truth alone can be respected and the hap
piuess of men alone consulted. It will be entitled,
therefore, to whatever weight can be derived from
good intention?, and from the experience of one
who hr* served his country in various stations
through a period of forty years ; who espoused,
in his youth, and adhered through his life, to the
cause of liberty ; and who lias borne a part in
most of the great transactions which wiil consti
tute epochs of its destiny.
The advice nearest my heart and deepest in my
convictions is, that the Union of the States be
cherished and perpetuated. Let the open enein\
to it be regarded as a Pandora with her box open
ed, and the disguised one as the serpent creeping
with liis deadly wiles iuto Paradise.”

I “ Purerv Speculative.”— What will the reader
say to all this clamor about intervention in the
| Territories, concerning which the Seetiottaiists of
the South jtre splitting the air, when we infoi at
them that the Hon. \\. W. Boyce, member of
Congress from South Carolina, has deliberat. ly
declared the whole subject to be “purely specula
tive, ’ and of no practical importance whatever?
Read Mr. Boyce's word?:
“ ! tidcr these circumstances, T think I ant a jf!.o
u‘ cd to conxnicu this question of slavery in il. e
l'eri it one* as pan ly specula/ice* True statesm.. 1-
sinp consists in the pursuit of the practical-, for
government is i practicul affair, as wo ciui gun
I nothing practical by the most ardent and success**
j ful pursuit of this question, I think it i 3 wise in us
to dispose of it for the present, by I eat iny it wiu.e
the Constitution and the Bred Scott decision no to
place it .”
If this common sense view had been taken, the
whole conservative strength of the country would
now have been united against the Republicans.
Physical Training.—This subject is attraelin *
moie aud more attention, particulaily connected
with schools. Mr. Philbrook, the Superintends t
of the Boston Schools, recommends in a recei t
report a regulsi system of physical culture in nil
their schools. He says, “Hitherto we have direc -
ed our attention exclusively to intellectual educ -
tion. The tasks of the brain have be.en great! t
increased without a corresponding increase (f
care for tho preservation of health. This is tbs
great defect of American education.
Don’t Publish Them.—We are surprised at the
course of the Southern press in publishing everv
abusive, taunting and ridiculous ariicle that appears
in a Northern paper. We publish all the North
does, and she will publish nothing from the South.
That is the way they build up and sustain a Black
Republican party, and ours is the way we dissemi
nate among our people Northern sentiment. Why
these publications in the South ? Do the precipila ■
tors hope to profit by them? Are the ranting
braggadocio vulgar speeches and articles of a few
fanatic negro loving fools, the sense of the North
ern people, and sliall such men scare us out of tb
L nion before we can get ready to leave. —Enter •
prise.
. aliable Recipe. —M. Spiquel, a French chern
tst, gives the fo.lowing recipe tor silvering spoons
and forks ot German silver when somewhat the
worse for wear: Dissolve two grammes of nitrate
of silver in forty grammes of pure cyanide of po
tassium, which will immediately cause a precipi
tate of cyanide of looking like snow';
but on stirring with a glass tube the liquid will
immediately become. limpid again. Dip a linen
rag into this liquid, and rub the article to be sil
vered over with it; it? surface will immediately
be covered with a film of silver. Rinse in clean
water, and then wipe with a dry towel.
“Massachusetts School.”—Those in the North
who ino?t glibly denounce southern secession seem
to have forgotten that the records of Massachusetts
legislation have in them resolutions to the follow
ing effect:
Resolved, That the annexation of Texes is ‘n~o
ta< so, n dissolution of the Union.
and, That Texas being annexed, Massa
chusetts t? out of the Union.”
Tin-se resolutions stand unrepealed. Yet tit's
same Massachusetts, with her personal liberty bill?
negro suffrage, negro equal ty, is the fountain-head
and source of all aggressions against the South
ami i? most loud-mouthed in her denunciation's of
disunion, uttered from the same mouths * hieh
preached disunion at tho Hartford Convention.

Be ever ready to oblige him, even it put vour
selt to considerable inconvenience. He may'have
found in you many faults of which he never
dreamed and a willing spirit will aid materially in

It is your duty to make and keep friends. It
may promote your husbands prospects in life and
can do you no harm ; whereas, it will be of much
service to your children as they g.ow older, and
very often be a source of consolation and ltanni

lhese are committed as suggestions for the care
ful, and we trust, the prayerful consideration of
the wives and mothers, young and old, on whom
rests the responsibility of much of the happiness

The following excellent suggestions were origi
nally contributed to and published in the Country
Gentleman nearly six years ago. The article has
ever since been floating among our exchanges, and
we think its prolonged vitality affords some evi
dence that it is worth republication and reperusal:
She should be firm, gentle, kind; always ready
to attend to her child. 1
She should never laugh at him, at what he does
that is cunning—never allow him to think of his
looks, except to be neat and clean in ali his habits.
She should teach him to obey a look, to respect
those older than himself. She should never make
a command without seeing that it is performed in
the right manner.
Never speak of a child’s faults or foibles, or re
marks before him ; it is a sure way to spoil's child
Never reprove a child while excited, nor let your
voice be raised when correcting him. Strive to
inspire love not dread—respect not fear. Remem
ber you are training and educating a soul for eter
nity.
Teach your child to wait upon himself; to pnt
away a thing when done with it. But do not for
get that you were once a child. The griefs of
little ones are too often neglected—they are great
for them. Bear patiently with them, and never in
any way rouse their anger if it caii be avoided.
Teach a child to be useful whenever opportunity
may offer. 1

once delivered an address before the New York

told. He was the father ot the American Union.
It was he who went forth to lay the foundation of
that gieat design at Albany ; and in New York he
lilted up his voice. Here among us he appeared
as the Apostle of the Union. It was Franklin who
suggested the Congress of 1774; and but for his
wisdom, and the confidence that, wisdom inspired,
it is a matter of doubt whether that Congress would
have taken effect. It was Franklin who suggested
the bond of this Union which binds the?e C States
from Florida to Maine. Franklin was the greatest
diplomatist of the eighteenth century. He never
spoke a word too soon ; he never spoke a word too
late; he never?poke a v;oid too much; he never
failed to speak the right word at the right season.
