*” R ightful scream, the soft murmur of the rivulet and the cataracts thaoder, each leave their deep impres sion as they pa.-is. It is from these we glean our richest treasures of knowledge, and learn “to look through nature, unto natures God.” * Thanks of “Unde Dabney ,J to Sparta Lodge. We received a letter from this gentleman a few days since, from which we make the following ex tract: “ l this morning received your letter of the 18th inst., and I trust felt not only humbled, but truly grateful, when my eves rested on the check forward* r by my dear friends of Sparta. Indeed, words can not express my feelings. Ido most sincerely thank iny Sparta, Spring Place, and Monroe county friends : for their recollections of‘the old warrior,’ in so sub stantial a way. Heaven bless them!” We hope soon to liear of many Lodges and Divi sions displaying a spirit of ©qil liberality and phi lanthropy. Almost every portion of our State hsu experienced the results of his labors, and they should now yield birn that assistance which he not only needs, but richly deserve*-. When political dema gogues spend months and years in “stumping it” through the country, they ere rewarded by “ lie : ; [iOiis ot office,” and rich prizes do they often prove. 1 wherewith is the Temperance lecturer rewarded for his labor of mercy and love? He must depend solely on the liberality of thy friends of the cause.— Come, then, ye Temperance men, nd show your selves sh-f ; ; r - in tho principles which you profess.— Suffer not the old hero, who fought so zealously for your cause, to carry bis gray hairs with sorrow to the grave. * Division of ‘Sons* in Perry. V\ o learn from a private letter, that the Perry, Houston county, arc endeavoring to organize ft Division of tho Sons of Temperance in that place. We sincerely trust they may succeed, for it gladdens ■* <ulr hearts to receive tho intelligence from different [ porticos of our Slate that the people are boatiring j themselves in regard to this matter. We arc particularly gratified to hear of this ia the ! low country, fur we believe that portion of the Stato j justifies intemperance upon the ground that the wa- > ter is so bad they have to “mix it.” We rather ques tion tuc validity of the justification, for “bad eperiUf (as all “now M-days” are bad,) mixed with bad a gnu, will certainly make bad looking objects of the Homo •jerms. In this case, two negatives are not equiva lent to an affirmative, for vtirtun into mirttes produces film “ icorscr .” We hope our friends uniy succeed in organizing a large Division of the Sons of Temperance in their beautiful and prosperous Town. It is truly hand some village, rapidly growing in magnitude, awl is worthy of all praise for the energy and ele vated moral tone of its citizens, and possesses great attractions on account of the beauty of its ladies.

M now anticipated on that scores?, although there I had been no very recent conferences, owing to Lord ! Clarendon’s absence at Paris. Lord Palmerston’s | government is regarded as tottering; it having been I twice beaten in Parliament, including the peerage ; question, and one police measure withdrawn. ■■.! A Mysterious Author. The anonymous writer of tho German tragedy. The Gladiator of Ravenna, has not been ascertained up to this moment —i circumstance doubly curious, as the drama not only maintains its high populari ty, but as the poet's share in the profits of its va rious performances amount it is said, to so large a sum as 10,009 thalers ($7,000.) This sum, deposit ed in the cash boxes of tho different court theatre*, the legitimate owner’s disposal; bat neither laurels nor gold, it appears, can induce the dramatist to step forth from his cloud. Portable Telegraph Instrument. It is said that one of Brognet’s ;>ortablo telegraph instruments is carried by every railroad train in I* prance. Should any stoppage or accident occur, the conductor alights with the instrument, connects * one wire with the earth, the other with the line of telegraph, and can thus communicate with tho sta tions on either side of him. The same inventor ho# •contrived an “electric monitor and automatic con troller,” by which the superintendent of any lino .can be kept informed of the progress of a train through its whole journey, the .signal being trans* ] fitted as it passes eaeh dtoUncepost. Ixokbishop Hughes. Considerable attention has been called to tho feet that the Senior class at the University of N. C., had elected Archbishop John Hughes, to deliver the Yale dietory Sermon at the next commencement. — Some excitement existed on the subject, we bear as no Roman Catholic had ever before been elected to the important office, though all the other denomi nation have been represented in turn. The Arch bishop, we now learn, has declined the invitation. — He was elected to tho same position last year, and j declined in consequence of bad health, but intimated j that ho would be happy to appear before them on 1 some future occasion.

Oh! wherefore inonrn the lovely dead, The spirit freed from earthly drosa ‘< Testrs?—then be they not anmiagled *hel~- For t.hlf, to us, is common loss! Dic-d, at the residence of Dr. Green in Midway, on tho 11th inst., of Bronchitis and Pneumonia, Doctor William W. Holmes, Assistant Physician of the State Lunatic Asylum, in the thirty sixth year of his age. The death of this gentleman brings not only deep ami abiding sorrow, upon a loving and venerable father and devoetd sisters and brother, with an extensive and highly respectable connection, but involves too, an important public loss. Dr. Holmes was in the most comprehensive sense of those expression, a go&l man and useful ‘rithen, and rarely has any man, in so brief a residence in ony community, secured for himself the high esteem of so extensive a c ircle, of warmly attached friends and commanded in so high a degree, the respect and good will of nil who knew him. His family and friends, however, enjoy the comforting assurance, that though in the Providoncc of that Being, “Who doeth nil things well and wisely,” he has been re moved from tho position of honor and usefulness which ho occupied here, ho has gone to tho Chris tian’s home in Heaven, and that their afflicting loss, is hb; everlasting gain.

Beautiful Assortment of Valentines! 1 HAVE just received from New York, Balti more, and Philadelphia, the most extensive as sortment of Valentines ever ottered in this place, and every thing connected with them, such as Writers, Verses, Envelopes, Lace Paper, &c., and am prepar ed to fill orders, Wholesale or Retail, at prices from five cents to twenty dollars. 1 have invoked Venus, the goddess of beauty and love, and her darling Cupid, and they Imve gracious ly chosen for their retreats the Madison Book Store, and have commissioned their friend, Benjamin G. Liddon, as high priest of love, courtship and in acri mony. “The world is full of poetry—the air Is living with its spirit; and the waves Dance to the music of its melodies And sparkle in its brightness,” This spirit of poetry arouses our loftier train of af fections, which aro borne upon tho gilded wings of Cupbi’s messenger, in the form of aValetine, to some fair friend breathing the pure sentiments of friend ship, esteem, and all the kindlier regards for those to whom vre donate. It, may, perchance, be received with silent approval, told only by tho fair face, ‘Where eloquent blushes burn and fade, Rich with the w ealth of warm emotion ; Or starry dimples mock tho shade, Like jewels in a restless ocean.” Yulcnlines are the ambassadors of thought, where language fails. They substitute, in glowing eloquence, the reading of the heart, by their symbolic meaning. Faithful to my trust, as a so vant of the public I am doing all in my power to further tho interests of those youths and maidens who are suffering from an affection of tho hoart. To all, of every age, and of every rank iu life, I offer a specific that has never failed. Such is tho wonderful power of the Valen tines sold by me, as a philanthropist and conservator of the tender passions, that none make love without sending one ns a pioneer. BENJ. G. LIDDON.

There are also, two sets of Mill Stones, which is an inducement to any one wishing to erect a Grist Mill. A good ftamed House with several Negro Cabins stand near by, for the ac commodation of a miller and hands. The market for lumber is good. The mill is two miles from Powolton, ten from Sparta, and six from Mayfiold. Public roads pass by the the mill to each of these places, which bring them in direct commu nication. The route surveyed for the Rail Rond from Warrenton and Milledgevillo is but a short distance from the lino of the land, and if it is built, will make the tract almost invaluable. 1 wish to sell the whole in a body, but if desired, will sell in parcels to suit purchasers. Sovcral elligiblo building sites, with good Springs, make a division quite practicable. As I am too Car removed to mako those lands avail able, my residence being in the Southern portion of the State, I am determined to sell, and I promise any one in want of such a place, that by applying to me early, at Perry, Ga., they shall have a bargain, eith er for their own use or for speculation.
