From East to West loud pagans ring, On every hill-top, every plain— The shout goes op from old and young, Hurrah for Breckinridge and Lane I The statesman wise, the hero brave, Our rights and honor will maintain ; And every threatening storm outride— Hurrah for Breckinridge and Lane I Our institutions slmll abide, Out glorious Union long remain, And every threatening storm outride, Upheld by Lane. Disunionists in vain desire Our common country rent in twain; Their spite and envy tend to give Success to Breckinridge and Lane. Aspiring demagogues may strive, And every nerve for office strain ; Such giants sink to pigmies small Compared with Btecktnridge and Lane.

One day, a John China man, followed by a train of about ten o! his countrymen, ranged tandem fashion, entered the establishment, nnd after peer ing around for a few seconds, ho exclaim ed : 1 Cotton seine twine—got him ?’ ‘ Yes!’ was the answer. ‘ 1 low much tnkoe ?’ ‘ One dollar a pound.’ ‘ Uni! give lifty cents !’ ‘Get out!’ suit] the junior partner, with a munaneing gesture, and John Chinaman departed, followed by his tail, and his countrymen. The train passed and repassed the door several times, and at last, re-entered John looking round as though he* had never been there before, again inquired of them : ‘ Cotton seine twino--got him ?’ ‘ Yes !’ ‘ How much taboo V ‘ One dollar a pound !’ * Urn givee seven tee five cents.’ ’ Get out!’ cried the excited partner, and flic Chinese population departed as beforo. The wild geese procession paraded past e few times, anil tliun re-entered. Iho spokesman, after gazing around some time, lifted up ids voice a third timo, and thus he spoke ; 1 Cotton soinc twine —kot him?’ * Yes 1 1!’ ‘ llow much takco ?’ The salesman whispered to Patrick, the porter, to hand him a cleaver. This had, he grasped tlio astonished John Chinaman with his left hand, and raising his cleaver with the right, exclaimed : “ One dollar a pound ! !!” John gave one look at the cleaver, another at the faco of tho salesman, and yelled out : ‘1 take one hundred pound !’ The bargain was thereon closed.

To Miss : Knowing that you arc shortly to enter a garden, enclosed, and that you are, nt present, a stranger to this garden, permit an old friend to give you some account of it. I have traveled every part and every path ; and know every production of every kind that it can [tossibly yield ; and, as my informa tion can do you no harm, it may do you some good. You know there is hut one way of en trance. I need hardly tell you that it is extremely gay and glittering—strewed with flowers of every hue and every fra granec, with all that nit or imagination can invent. You may fondly hope that this scene of rapture will never alter, as youj. ill not see the onsJ of the path w hcn> you enter it. To some it proves a short one, and to you it may appear very dif ferent in the retrospective. Here, tny dear girl, let me caution you not to dream of perfect or perpetual bliss; if you do, cxpericuec will sl ow you that it never existed on earth, save iu visions or visionary heads. You will meet with many productions in this garden, which are charming ;o the eye and pleasant to tho taste, but they are not all so. Let me just remark, that you are carrying into this garden one of the most delicious and delicate plants in nature —I mean good humor. Don’t drop it, or lose it, ns many have done soon after they entered,who seldom, if ever, found it again. It is a treasure which nothing can make up to you in this world. When von got to the end of tho first walk, which lasts alioiit thirty steps, com- i monly called honey-moon path, you will see the garden open in a vast variety of j views, and here I must caution you against some productions that are nauseous and noxious, and oven fatal in their tendency to the unwary and ignorant. There is a low, small plant, which may he seen in almost every path, called in difference, though not perceived at the entrance. You will always know when near this plant, though you do not see it, by a certain coldness in the air which surrounds it, contrary to all others, it thrives in cold, and dies in warmth, — Whenever you perceive this, clmngoyour situation as soon as you can. In the same path is often found that ugly, yellow flower, called Jealousy, which I wish you never to look at. Turn from it as fast as possible, for it has the strange quality of tinging the eve that holds it with a stain which it seldom outs rid of. As you go in, von will meet with many little crooked paths, but do not go into them. I advise you, as a friend, never to attempt it; for though, at the entrance of each, is written in large letters, “ In the right,” when you get in, in nine eases out of ten, you will find the true name to be l’crvcrseoess, and that you are in the wrong, and will not acknowledge it. This often occasions endless disputes here —is a source of perpetual difference, and sometimes of a final separation in the garden. Near this spot, yon will meet with a sturdy, knotty plant, called Obstinacy, hearing a hard, bitter fruit,which becomes fatal when taken in largo quantities. Turn from it ; avoid it as you would the plague. Just opposito to this, grows that lowly and lovely shrub, Compliance; which, though not pleasant to the palate, is sal utary and sweet, and produces the most delicious fruit in the garden. Never be without a sprig of it. in your hand ; it will often bo wanted as you go along ; if you do not, you will surely repent the want of it. All over the garden you may find a useful plant, called Economy. It is of a thriving quality, take a good stuck of it as you go in. It adorns and enriches at the same time. Many entirely overlook it, some despise it, ami others think they want it. It is generally forgotten in the hurry and gaiety with which people en ter this place ; but the total want of it is conmrmly paid for with bitter repent ance. I must tell you, unless both par take of it, it will answer little end to either. You may, if you please, carry some with you into the garden ; lint, it is a hundred to one, if you do not lose it on going in. This is more useful than what you will find there ; for it is of an other sort. Provide yourself and part ner with a proper quantity of it, ns soon as you can, when in the place. You observe, as you pass, two or three paths, which run much into one another --I mean those of Regularity, Exact ness, and Neatness. Do not think, as many do, that when once you are in, you may bo careless of your person and dress. Remember, your companion will see some that are not so —this indiffer ence will strike his eye, if not offend it Pinter those paths almost as soon as you outer the garden ; and, take my word for it, if you do, yon will never got out, of them ; onco fairly in, you are in for life, and the worst of it is, that if you do nut find them soon, you will never find them afterward. Near this walk, is found that invalua ble shrub, Humility. This, though of no war'll in itself, yet joined hi other good qualities, is worth them nil put to gether. It Is never seen without being ailinirod ; and is most amiable when not \ i-ible. They say, “ Virtue is its own reward lam certain pride, is its own i punishment. Flee from it as from a i contagion, which it strongly resembles, jlt infects and corrupts. Cultivate, with all your care, the humble plant now men tioned, as the best antidote aga nst this jtoisonous vvped. Allow me*hero to drop a hint on the subject of as that m< st prob ! ably will le your employment. Should you ho entrusted with the rearing of a flower, remember two things: first, that j it is but a flower, however fair; frail in , its nature, and fading nt every blast ; I and, secondly, that it is a flower in trust, | , for tbouudNation of which you are ac • eonntmtrw tl& owner of the gatrden. Should \qu he a witness to a blast on its dawning beauties, oh, how your dm- 1 teiing heart will bleed with tenderness. : Let affection sympathise. Your feelings may be conceived, but they cannot be described. The young shoot will natur \ idly and insensibly twine around the i fibres of your frame. Should it live and thrive, spare no pains to teach the young production how to rise. Weed it, water it, and prune it ; ii will need them all. Without this, many weeds will grow up and poison the very soil upon which it grows. Remember this is a Irust for which von are accountable to Him who gave. That yon may be blest, with the sweetest production ol this garden : that they may be the delight of your eyes, and that you and they, when the summer ot this life is over, may ho transplanted to some Imp pier soil, and flourish iu immortal vigor, m perfect and permanent felicity, is the sincere wish of your affectionate friend.

As it happened, some of the Jew ish merchants taking him to be a green born, immediately sallied forth to pur chase, when the following dialogue en sued : Jew. Do you sell dat cotton ? W agoucr. Ye ; pap sed if wanted to 1 might tell it, (speaking in a low, drawl ; ing tone.) Jew. \ ell, vat you lake for it ? Wagoner.

Well, pap said I might get the wagon load of things if you had any thing to suit me. J. Veil, anything you vill vant to puv. .So they concluded the trade, the Jew giving him over the market price for it, j expected to reap a golden harvest in the | sale of Ids goods to the green country man. J. Now yon valk in and gets anything you shall cant. W, Well, pap said I must get the chink and see if it’s all right, and then buy the tilings, you know. J. Veil, 1 gives you do sbink, den you can puy anything you vant, (and lie handed out tlio 11101103’.) W. Well, pap said I might have any thing 1 wanted, and that I might get it from you. -I. Oh, yes, 1 lias everything you vant. Now vat is it ? W. Have you got anv flea-hobbles? J, No; we aint got any of dem, but anything else. W. Well, I wanted three musket muz zles. J. Veil, I never see dem tings. W. Well, any yokes for ganders? J. No ; none of dem, nedor. W. That’s all I wants : pap told me to got ’em. And lie walked out, leaving tlio mind of the Jew in despair, and his pockets rather empty. j; }"■ Among the sect known as the Hardshell Baptists, was a preacher who believed that lie ought not to select a subject beforeband ; and on one occasion lie arose to speak, nnd as lie opcend the Bible his eyes fell on these words : “ Tlio voice of the turtle is heard in the land.” At first, lie thought he was stumped. At length ho said, “ Brethren, at first sight one would think there was not much in this text, but after a little consid eration, von will see there is a good deal in it. Now you all know what a turtle is. If you havo ever been along by n pond, you have scon them on the logs sunning themselves. Now, it is said, ‘The voice of the turtlo is ltcard in the land.’ But tho turtle hasn't any voice that ever anybody hoard, so it may lie the noise that the turtle made in plung ing off the 100 into the water : hence we conclude that immersion will be univer sal.” The population of New York City is 802,257 souls !

My cabbage is left out till there is dan ger of float. Tho heads are then cut off, with a few coarse leaves, and if winter does not scorn to bo upon us, throw into heaps, and cover with litter ofsome kind, till‘winter seems to he coming in earn est. Then tho cabbage are put in heaps by placing ilium on the ground —three from the bottom course, two from ti e sec ond, and one from the top'.

As general rule it is most, economical to buy tho best article. The prices are, of course, always a little higher, but good articles always spend best. It is a sacri lice of money to buy j oor flour, meat, sugar, molasses, cheese, butter, lard Ac., to say nothing of the injurious effect tip on the health. Os West India sugar and molasses, tho Santa Cruz and Porto Rico aroconsider ed best. The Havana is seldom clean. White sugar from Brazil is vary good. Refined sugar usually contniflstho mostof the saccharine substance, therefore, there is probably the more economy in using crushed loaf, and granulated sugars than wc should at first suppose. Rutter that is made in September and October is tbe best for winter use. Lord should bo hard and while ; and that which is taken from a hog over a year old is the best. Rich cheese feels soft under the pres sure of the finger. That which is very strong is neither good nor healthy. To keep one that is cut, tie it up in a bag that w ill not admit flics, and hung it in a cool dry place. If mould appear on it, wipe it off with a dry cloth. The best rice is large, and has n clear, fresh look. Old rice sometimes has a clo u l , fresh look. Old rice sometimes has little black insects inside the her iicK The small white sngb, ea'fed pPnrf *n go, is the best. The largo brown kind Ims an earthy taste.

Keep coffee by itself, as its odor affects other articles. Keep tea in a eloso chest or canis ter. Oranges and lemons keep best wrap ped close in soft paper and laid in a drawer of linen. When a cask of molasses is bought, draw off a few quarts else the fermenta tion produced by moving it will burst the cask. Bread and cah.o should bo kopt in a tin box or a stone jar. Sait codfish should be kept in a dry place, where the odor of it will not affect the air of the house. The best kind is that which is called Dun, from the pecu liar color. Fishskin for clearing coffee, should be washed, dried, cut small, and kept in a paper bag. Soft soap should he kept in a dry place in the cellar, and should not bo used till three month sold. Bar soap should he cut into pieces of a convenient size, and left whore it will be come dry. It is well to keep it for sev eral weeks before using it, as it spends fast when it is new. Cranberries will keep all winter in a firkin of water in thecollar. Po'atocs should be put into a cellar as soon as they are ting. Lying exposed to tho mm turns them green, and makes them watery.
