POETRY. (From the Saturday Gazette.) TRITH. Only be true. I can forgive A quick, impatient word, A hotly speech I can forget, As it had ne’er been heard; But it ’tis false, my very soul •Indignantly is stirred. I could, without complaint, endure A cold, averted Iook ; I could forbear to ween, if thou Unkindly me forsook; But word or glance that speaks untrue. My spirit could not brook. My pride would keep me silent, when Thou didst my love suspect; My lips are sealed, when suffering From undeserved neglect; But still until I find thee false, I yield thee my respect. I cannot give to one I doubt My unreserved esteem; I’d have thee look at words and acts By truth’s unclouded beam; And" if from aught a shadow falls To cast away that scheme. Only be true, and thou wilt find How firm I’ll stand by thee, All other faults I can overlook For simple honesty; If thou would’st have my favor, act Sincerely—openly. Pure truth is such a brilliant gem, And so adorns the brow, 1 long to see it ever worn By such a one as thou; Oh, wait not then till after years— • Secure the treasure now. Be true, and open, and sincere, And then if griefe befal, Thou shall not hopelessly iook round, Nor know on whom to call; My hand shall ever be stretched out To give thee help through all.

Smith called for a hill of fare, U|»on which are “invoiced”'more “sorts," and harder named wines and liquor*, than could be committed to memory in a week.

Law and Medicine are the great professions to which all resort in this country for distinction, honor or profit—and as a natural consequence they have become so crowded, as to threaten the majority with—if not famine—something having a very close affinity to the potatoc rot.” f The feeling of ambition that prompts to rush to the temples of science, is too laudable to be condemned, however in convenient it may sometimes prove to the votary. Without thirst for distinc- ' tion, inaii would leijittle better than , the quadruped, which eats, drinks and perishes. IVati eonsumcre frvqes' would justly apply to the human (ami. ly. The evidence of soul is the aspir ation for honor. If other motives occasionally impel the student, or his friends, to place him in the orbit where mind mirrors itself in immortality still the exaltation of that orbit remains the same, it is always a bright and shin ing circle of fame, though opaque and dense bodies may sometimes darken the effulgence that glows around if. Many wholesome results go to prove this crowning of the liberal professions to be a bles sing to society however annoying it may be to lawyers and doctors who fail to reap fortune and fame from their pursuit. It not unfrcqnently stimulates them to impart some knowledge of their profession to the public through the medium of treatises, lectures, and dis quisitions upon the science they profess to understand. They thus become the teachers of the people in their own pro fessions. Medicine and Physiology thus become popular sciences, and the classbooks of schools are found to l>e useful vehicles of the most substantial knowledge. Lawyers w ithout briefs, of ten become the author ofclass-books— and physicians, with limited, or no prac tice, expand into the character of pub lic benefactors by the popular diffusion of tlie science of health and anatomy. In this way. the world gains an acces sion of knowledge highly beneficial— highly conducive to the march of mind the extrusion of science and the perfec tion of civilization. New schools of medicine arise to throw light on the deep mystery of disease. New regions of thought are discovered—explored. New discoveries reward research hu man fife is prolonged; and new sources of wealth are opened. Truth finally reigns in the place of error and delusion phisosophy supplants bigotry and sci ence supercedes prejudice. Undefina- hie benefits are diffused in all directions —for intellect like tin* too it will pur ify, enlighten, and refine. Chemistry has also found its way into popular favor, and liecomo and established branch of scholastic learning, and from the same cause—crowiling the profes- si ns. So has Botany so has Astrono my; indeed there is no branch oflearn- ing that does not priit. EXTBEM U.\C11llN; OK THE HORSE JoCKHt’s CoNIES- _ SION. A noted Horse Jocky inConnecftcut who ha<l by his profound knowledge of of borseology, and the various ^arts ‘adjacent thereto accumulated a consid erable property was a great hypocon- draic and exaggerated every disorder that attacked him into a dangerous dis- case.’ Some of his neighbors were un- charitable enough to say that his cor- sciousnes made him tremble at the slightest menace of death. It is cer tain that whenever he w as laid upon his bed with sickness, he pegan straight way to talk aloud of his approaching dissolution, and bored his friends and neighbors with querulous complaint.— Once when sick, an old confederate, who had traveled with him and aided him in despoiling the Egyptians in eve ry county of the state, called to see him. This friend comprehended the nature of his complaint at once and requested the family to allow him to manage mut ters in his own way for a dAyor two.— He changed the tactics which others had prevtouely employed, and instead of prophesying smooth things he out Heroded Herod in eroaking over his friend’s maladies and soon pronounced the him a dying man. From time to time he draped in, and so worked upon his feelings, he soon brought the disease to a crisis. He called upon him the second day grief and sorrow, that the openiug grave alone absorbs. Be wise, then in this high concern enter on the path with care and pru dence and seek that heavenly wisdom may direct|h|tftep8 and give to thee the richest «TO)ly treasure— affectionate and virtuous wife.

One tom over with salt, now spread a layer of salt, then another layer of cucumbers, and so on until the vessel is full, always taking care to have some weights on top of the cucumbers to keep them down. They make their own pickle; and if kept always under the brine will keep for years. When wanted to pickle, they should be taken from the cask and soaked in fresh water for four days, taking, care to change the water often. Put them in a brass kettle, cover with good vine gar, add a piece of alum the size of a hickory nut to every gallon of pickles, add garlic, pepers and spices as they may dictate; let the whole he scalded, and then put in jars for future use. The pickles will be preen, brittle and acid. One gallon of good whiskey, and two of water, has been found to make capital vinegar for cucumbers. Have the liquid in a cask, and pick the fresh cucumbers and put them imme diately into it; the action of the cucum ber upon liquid turns it into good vine gar. A proper quantity of salt should he added to the vinegar; they may be eaten from the cask, good pickles.— Soil of the South.
