To the Public—As there are many Gift Book stores advertised throughout the country, Mr. EVANS deems it just to himself and his duty to the public—inasmuch as he originated the Gift-book busi ness—to state ns evidence of the instability of niuny of such concerns, that they conceal their real names from the public and are advertising their business, under assumed ones. Mr. E., is a ware that these various con cerns published as Gift-Book stores, are calculated to briug the business established by himself into disrepute. He asksof the public a correct Judgement in regard to his Gilt Book enterprise; for the honor, integrity, and success, of which he refers to all the proniiuent pub lishers in the United States.

A Light 4 llorse Wagon and Harness FOR SALE. fJVHIS Wagon is in good running order, and will Endurance. ’Tis bitter to endure the wrong Which evil hands and tongues commit. The bold encroachments of the strong, The shafts of calumny and wit, The scornful bearing of the proud. The sneers and laughter of the crowd. And harder still it is to bear The censure of the good and wise. Who ignorant of what you are, Or blinded by the slander’s lies, Look coldly on, or pass you by. In silence, with averted eye. But when the friends in whom you trust. As steadfast as the mountain rock, Fly, and are scattered like the dust, Before misfortune's whirlwind shock, Nor love remains to cheer your fall, This is more terrible than all. But even this, and these—ay more. Can be endured and hope survive; The noble spirit still may soar. Although the body fail to thrive; Disease and want may wear the frame Thank God! the soul is ftill the same. Hold up your head, then man of grief, Nor longer to the tempest bend, For soon or late must come relief— The coldest, darkest night will end; Hope in the true heart never dies! Trust on—the day-star yet shall rise. Conscious of purity and worth, You may with calm assurance wait. The tardy recompense of earth; And e’en should justice come too late, To soothe the spirit’s homeward flight, Still heaven, at last, the wrong shall right. Good-night and Pleasant Dreams. When on its couch of rosy clouds The burning sun has sunk to rest. And tired of song, the woodland bird Is sleeping in its qniet nest— W hen evening lays its misty band On dewy ttow’vsand prattling streams— How sweet to hear from lips we love, Good-night! good-night; and pleasant dreams. Hoiv sweet to bear from lips we love, Good night, good-night, and pleasant dreams. O! bitter is the exile's fate, Who wanders from his peaceful cot; No gentle wish, or soothing word, Can mingle in his lonely lot. On some still bank of moss and flow’rs Beneath the star's inconstant beams, How sweet to hear from lips we love. Good night, good night, and pleasant dreams. How sweet to hear from lips we love, Good-night, good-night and pleasant) dreams. Silence. From a volume just published in London, of very pleasing poetry, entitled "The Rivulet: * Contribution to Sacred Song,” by Thomas T Lynch. In silence mighty tilings are wrought— Silently budded, thought on thought, Truth’s temple greets the sky; And. like a citadel with towers, The soul, with her subservent powers, Is strengthen’d silently. Soundless as chariots on the snow. The saplings of the forest grow To trees of mighty girth; Each nightly star in silence burns, And every day in silence turns The axle ofthe earth. The silent frost, with mighty hand, Fetters the river and the land With universal chain; And smitten, by the silent snn, The chain is loosed, the rivers run, The land are free again. A Correspondent of the Educational Journal thus alludes to one of the great est evils of the day. His remarks are characterized by sound, practical sense and we give them our full endorsement: While I have no objection to High Schools, Colleges and an Education, I do not believe that it is necessary to graduate all of our sons. We need men to till the earth—practical men. Whilst many good old fathers are moving Heaven and earth to educate their sons to give them position sending them off to College, moving to towns and cities for that purpose, and in curring heavy expenses and labor; take care, take care, that you do not sow the wind and reap the whirlwind. Take care that yon do not feel, whether you express it or not, like the weeping Prophet over incorrigable Israel, “O, that my head were water and mine eyes a fountain of tears, that I might weep day and night” over the indiscretion and dissipation of iny sons. Many of those sous would be valti- ble at home at work, redeeming those old and dismal looking fields from the sedge grass, pine hushes, briers and gullies.— Such employment would be well calcu lated to neutralize their ardor, take off the wire edge, promote mind health and con tribute much to the sum total of the wealth anp greatness of the country, and make of them valuable members of society. Industry is Talent.—We often hear persons explaining how one man fails in business, while another meets with success in the same pursuit, attributing to one tal ent for his business, but refusing it to the other. Yes, without denying that some indi viduals have talent, we think that the problem in question can be easily solved by saying that the successful man was in dustrious, while the other was not. Bul- wer, for example, is considered a man of the highest abilities as a novelist. Yet when Bulwer began his career, he com posed with the utmost difficulty, often writing his fictions over twice. He persver- ed however, and now staudsat the head of his class—his latest productions moreover being regarded as the. best from his pen.— Every schoolboy is familiar with the fact that Demosthenes became an orator only by pursuiug a similar plan. Nor are il lustrations of the great truth, that indus try is talent, confined to the highest intel lectual pursuits. hen Girard trusted the customer without an endorser, who carried his goods home on his shoulder, the shrewd old Erenchnian was acting on this truth, deduced from his own expe rience of mankind. All eminent persons whether mechanics, lawyers or statesmen, were industrious, from Watt and Norris down to Thurlow and Win. Pitt. Wash ington, Franklin, Marshall, Madison, and every other distinguished American, were busy men. Industry is talent, nine times out of ten. Apply to James Duncan Milledgeville, May 16tL 1858. L. J. PERKINS. 51 3t.* A Love Letter to Rubesjnerrc.—At a recent sale of aytographs at Paris, the fol lowing letter addressed to Robespierre, ex cited no little interest: “Since the begin- ing of the revolution I have beeu in love with you, citizen! But I was married, and knew how to control my passion.— i o-day I am free—-my husband has fallen in La Vendee. I’ll give you this declara tion in the face of the Supreme Being.— It is no easy task for a woman to make such a confession; but paper is patieut; you are my supreme deity, and on earth I know no one beside you. I look upon you as my guardian angel, and will only live under your laws. If you are free, I will be yours for life. I am twenty-two years old, and have a feeling soul: I offer you of dowry the qualities of a true republican and 4,000 livres rente. I am waiting for your answer. Eeuve Jacquin, at Nance.

There is a man, a very strange man, among the Sikhs of India, a Fakir or Fa- queer too, one who gains his livelihood by putting on the appearance of death, and suffering himself to be buried for three, six, or twelve months, according to the agreement and compact he enters into with his employers. This man, far from being misdoubted in those parts, or being treat ed as a mountebank, is held in extraordin ary respect and veneration by tlie Sikh people. The stories that are told of this man are truly wonderful, and try to sift the matter how you will, the marvel only increases. Both natives and Europeans are alike perplexed; every one in the East has heard of his extraordinary pow ers ; every means that the skeptical could employ has beeu tried to detect tlie im posture which has been suspected; but still bis credit remains unshaken to the last. One of those who have witnessed his prodi- gous feat, is Captain Wade, the political agent at Loodianah, who stood by wheu lie was disinterred after a burial of ten consecutive months, and his body seemed then, as it had seemed at first, to he in a state of suspended animation. In Eng land, it was thought a most wonderful thing, and very justly, when, a dozen years ago, a young Irishman allowed him self to he locked up in a chamber for three weeks, and seals to be placed on the door aud window, and agreed to stay there in that confinement without meat or drink. This feat, as far as could be seen, he did perform, according to the testation of sev eral medical gentlemen, writers for the newspapers and others. But look at the difference. In the case of this Indian, instead of confinement in a spacious room the body is put in a hag; the bag is tied up and sealed with several seals by men of the highest credit and dis- tiuction. Then it is put into a box, and the seals are again applied to that box. This, one would suppose, was test enough in all conscience. Not at all! the box is put into a stone grave or vault, then over that stone vault the earth is completely thrown, and gram is sown in the very sod, which covers the body of this bold and mar velous experimentalist. Reader, do you marvel? what think you of this? If this be really a cunning man, who fences with the sharp eyes and looks and thoughts of five millions of people, and does this for fifteen or twenty years without being caught tripping, it cannot be denied he does his feat in a very work manlike way. Buried for twelve months under ground with corn growing over his body! How is he to enter into collusion with his confederates in the trick, if trick there be? Men of the highest rank, doubt ful of his powers, and among these the celebrated Kunjeet Sing, have seen him buried at the commencement, and have af terwards been present , when the body was taken up after a suspended animation of twelve month's continuance. As far as all human observation could go, that ex traordinary man had lived without food, without <lrink, without air for the space of one entire year, and there he was at the end of this singular experiment alive again and hearty. This wonderful man is now about forty- five years old, and enjoys all the ruddy health that a vigorous body and sound constitution can bestow. He is always ready to repeat his sur prising performances—in fact he lives by them. He gains his bread by living under ground in a close grave. He says that during the time he lies thus in a state of suspended animation, he has the most beatific dreams that can be con ceived. These dreams are not like those of ordinary men, but they are long, dura ble, continuous, full of incident and rami fied intrigue, like a well written romance of many goodly volumes. But these beautiful dreams are never completed, and brought to a close, because he is in the very midst of them when the term of his probation comes, and the earth is opened to restore him to the world. He does not regret the time he loses by these inter ments, for the fictions of his teeming brain which passes through his fancy, have to him a far ereater charm than real life.— One day when the great Runjeet Sing with his favorite minister, and the several grandees of the Maharajah’s court, were conversing with him upon the subject of these extraordinary dreams, and trying to form some idea of a thing so marvelous, he described it very happily by comparing it to one of those fits of musing, which every one has at times, when the mind in full vigor indulges in the How of its inven tions, and which are so agreeable to the patient, that the most amiable and the kindest men are ready to curse the officious friend who rouses them from so agreeable a state of half suspended consciousness. When the Fakir is taken up after buri al, no pulsation can be felt: at once the heart, the wrist, and the temple are still; there is no 1 reathing; the body is not cold as a corpse would he, but it is cooler than that of other living men, except over the seat of the brain, which is feverishly hot and burning. All the secretions are fully stopped, the nails have ceased to grow, so have the hair and heard. He feeis great dizziness at first, and for a few hours can not stand up without support, and for sev eral days he continues to experience the sensation of a man in a swing, or of one just landed after a long voyage. But grad ually he recovers his health and good spirits, and enjoys amazingly the wonder and admiration he has excited. The Sikhs look upon this man as a supe rior being, gifted with a supernatural fac ulty, and they take great pride in his pow ers of bodily endurance. After the disin terment they always exhibit the greatest joy, and celebrate the occasion by the dis charge of guns and letting oft' fireworks. The Rajahs and Sirdars aud other men of state load him with presents. They do not distrust him as we should do, but rath er glory in him as a specimen of the mirac ulous, vouchsafed to their own priviledged country. He is said to be very rich, and is the only rich man among the Sikhs who would dare to be so long away from court for fear of his place being filled up during his absence. He is also the only one who does not suffer the maleficent detriment of slander and calumny when out of view; for as his peculiar merit does not interfere with the progress of other men, they leave him unmolested in his glory. Eloquence of a Look.—"Surely,” says Blunt, “no malefactor, condemned to suffer for the violated laws of his country’ ever heard the last hour strike upon the prision bell with half the agony of feeling with which that cock-crowing rang upon the ears of Peter. Still was there a sight which smote far deeper than the sound;— ‘The Lord turned and looked upon Peter.’ What can portray the silent eloquence of that last look? What volumes must it have spoken to the fallen apostle? Could he behold that well known countenance, and again repeat, ‘I know not the man?’ Could he see his Divine Master, ‘as a sheep before his shearers is dumb,’ and again to break forth into oaths and imprecation? — Could he t ear the reproach of that meek eye. and yet remain in the guilty scene amid those enemies of the Savior and of his own sonl? No! that single glance was all that was required to send home the arrow of conviction and repentance to his bosom; he instantly remembered the word that the Lord bad spoken, and he went out and wept bitterly.
