If "philosophy is history teaching by example," the following parallels may prove interesting. The Rich? mond Whig says: "While we cannot, if wc would, close our eyes to the gloomy aspect of po? litical affairs, we should not surrender ourselves to despair. We should, like sensible men, inquire what we can do to better our condition, and do it candidly, manfully and openly. ^\ e all know that ?ve cannot fight, and it is needless, therefore, to talk about fighting. We can grumble and scold, but who wauts manly Vir? ginians to degenerate into grumblers and scolds? We can fold our arms, stand still and be swept to destruction by the torrent wc seek passively to resist. We can surrender ourselves to despair, and doggedly invite fate to do its worst. These are not reme? dies for our situation. A few hours will develop the crisis with more painful distinctness, and then we will have to determine, and quickly, upon our line of action. We avail ourselves of this pause tn address sonn? remarks to our readers upon the analogies supplied by his? tory to our situation, and to draw from them some useful lessons. Those who have lived for successive genera? tions under a peculiar form of go? vernment controlled by themselves, regard the idea of revolution with dismay and horror. Thej imagine that lib; will be unendurable uudei any other Government. We are just in that situation. We have but now emerged from a war iu which we wert discomfitted, and while the Constitu? tion still exists in name, we see befori us. as in a panorama, all the stage; of rapid revolution. We see State struck from their spheres, and thei: very names blotted out. Instead o States they have become districts military districts. We see civil lav dethroned and martial law substitute!. in its place. We see white mau': Government changed into a negri Government. In one word, wc se< the Government of our fathers pass ing through a complete revolution and with the sole object of subjecting the Southern people to Northern ride We see these things, and we arc lille with dismay and horror. Many lee that life is unendurable under sud circumstances, and that it would b better to lie down and die. Let u not forget that this is not the firs revolution that has occurred in his tory. Almost every nation has lue its revolutions, and accompanied b violence and bloodshed. Those u;* tions survived them, and the peopl became prosperous and happy. W have this advantage, that we have al ready passed through tue most fem ful stage-that of violence and blood shed- lu this instance, the revolutio js cupxiinatingpeacefully, if painfully after *ne 'VVIU'- If we survived th war, w?y c;iu we ljut survive tb chance ot Government'? Horn0 was alternately a oom mut wealth an^- un empire, livery chane of <roYCrnment was accompanied b civil c'onvuls-on; slaughter and coi fiscatiou. These were Pagan day: when pure ar-d exalted Christian ph losophv W?IS unknown, and whe uneuli^htene^ reason and uucurbe passion governed men. In tho; days it was esteemed honorable i the patriot who failed to throw hin self upon h*s sword and die. A fe notable examples ul this kind ha\ descended t1-' .us in history. Lt honorable as it. was esteemed, fe thus threw away their lives. Th< preferred making their peace wit their enemies? and living as quiet and contentedly as they could undi the new govern^'Ut. In a few year tiie bulk of the people became a enstomed to it a^d prospered. France has been scourged by rev lutions in which blood ran like wate and terror palsied the nation. O Governments were blotted out, ai new Governments formed. Violeiic bloodshed, confiscation and banis ment were the accompaniments every such revolution. Yet, in a fe years, France became quiet, and tl people prosperous and contente But little more than a half centu has elapsed since the revoluti" which ended in the elevation of t Corsican prodigy to power was f< lowed by his overthrow at Waterlc by the occupation of his capital the allies, and by the utter exhaust! and impoverishment of the Fren people; but notwithstanding the c currence of two revolutions since tl period, they are reckoned among t happiest and most prosperous peoj on earth. Look at England, if you wot learn what a nation can pass throu and live. The Norman conque which occurred about eight bundi years ago, threatened universal ( tinction. A more complete subjuf tion was never known. Domesd book alfords the most complete e dence of the extent to which t Normans possessed themselves of t lauded property of the country. T. book embodies tho results of a gei ral survey of thc kingdom, and show the impatient land-greed of t conqueror and his followers-t survey, which was ordered by W liam, while keeping Christmas w his Court, at Gloucester, was co ploted by Easter of the followi year. So minute was it that the ch nicler tells us "there was not c single hide of land, no, not evei yard of laud, which was not down." He adds: "Not even ox or a cow, or a swine, that was the land, was left out of the reeor? Yet the native population survi> this unexampled subjugation, pros? pered and became, in time, incorpo? rated with their conquerors. Thej' j made the best of their deplorable situation, and turned everything they could to their advantage, instead of I surrendering themselves to despair, j That was a revolution wrought by j foreign domination. ; England has since undergone in? ternal revolutions, accompanied by ! bloody, cruel and long-continued ' wars." Tbe revolution that culmi ? uated in the execution ol Lue first I Charles, and the elevation of Crom ! well to kingly power, under the mo? dest title of Lord Protector, was one that established an unsparing tyranny over one-half of the nation, render? ing their lives insecure, and placing I their liberty and property in peril. Cromwell died, and the Common I wealth came to an end. The rostora j tion of t'ne Stuarts involved another revolution, by which the enemies of j Charles II and his house were pun ! ished and humbled. In all these revolutions, the full j measure of disaster, degradation, i confiscation and punishment was j meted out to the weaber party, j They, no doubt, felt ns we feel, hu I radiated and despondent. But whet I they found that resistance was un j availing, and opposition only exas? perated thc- prevailing party atv increased their own burdens, thov learned to reconcile themselves U their situation. They conceded wha they had no longer the power ti deny, and conformed to the authority they could not successfully strivi : against. Their wives and childrei ?conid not, without criminality, bi I sacrificed to punctilios, and thi j caiminality they were not willing ti i incur. The balk in ali these in j stain es survived the changes of go 1 verument, and their posterity ure, a ! this day, as much and as prosperou I a portion of these several nations a ii no sucli revolutions had oecurre?

Au exchnnge gives tho following ac? count of a convention held at Chi? cago: A strange convention was held at Chicago in 1850. It was that of thc gamblers of the United States, in which every State was represented. Although a gathering of "hard cases."' morally, the appearance of ? the delegates is described as having ? been highly respectai ?lc. The Chicago Democrat said of them: "A finer: looking set nf men we have never seen than they are, taken upon the average. They are all fat and well, | very well dressed, with jewelry in abundance; and some of thom are ' said to he what their looks indicate,' men ot' talents." Two important matters came np before the convention. One was the revision of the old rules and the ; adoption of new oms for thc various! games, lt was found that those rules were construed differently in different j States, and that several lives had been lost in broils arising from this differ- ? ??ncc in their interpretation. Uni- j formity of construction was demand? ed by all the delegates. The other ; subjeejt of discussion was the non- i interference of professional gamblers in politics, which led to a very warm debate, and was finally laid upon thc ; table. " VERS SUGGESTIVE.-Old J3?sop, a very wise old fogy, tells a story, in I his Fables, of a proud and towering oak which, in attempting to breast a furious storm, was uprooted and de? stroyed, while a reed, pliantly bond? ing, lifted its head unharmed amidst the surrounding desolation, when the blast had swept away. America, according to researches made some years ago by Lieutenant Maury, is situated on relatively higher ground than any other part of the world. By wind and wave, it is down hill from 'ns to ail the earth, and other nations mus: come up hill to reach us. The Chicago Post, in a thundering! rage, asks: Have the members of the present Congress neither eyes to see, nor ears to hear'.- We think it doubtful about the eyes; but there is no disputing the oars-they are there sure, "sticking out a feet."'

Some of these are injurious: others, ?it !x-st, of little use, and many entirely worthless, and do md meet tie- want.
