Truly, this is a top. ic worthy of the attention of parents aud all others who are concerned in the great husincss of education. “Ait D* Rksolvtioxs.”—On a time, a missionary meeting was held among the negroes in the West Indies, at which the following resolution were passed: !. We will give something. 2. We will give v GihI has enabled ns. 3. We will give willingly. At the dose of the meeting, a leading negro took his seat at the table to mark down the sum each came forward to give. A large number came and laid their rnn- trihntions upon the table—some more, some less. Among the number who came up was a rich old colored man, as rich as all the others put together, who threw down on the table a silver coin. “ Take dat back again,” said the African receiver of the money seat ed at the table. “ Dat may Ik* cordin to de fus res’lushin, but not cordin to s«4nnd.” The rich man accordingly took it up, and hobbled Imck folds seat in a rage. One after another came for ward, and almost all giving more than himself. He was fairly ashamed, and again threw down a piece of money on the table, saying—“ Dar, take dat.” It was a valuable piece of gold; but it was given so ill-temperedly that the same man at the table again answered. “ No, dat don’t do yet. It may be cordin to de fus and second res’lnshins, but not cordin to de last;” and again the old man took up hi« coin. Still annoyed at himself and all around him, he sat a long time, till nearly all were gone, and then came to the table and. with a pleasant countenance (the man was a Christian) gave n large sum to the treasurer. The receiver, as he marked down the amount, exclaimed, “ Well, den, dat am cordin to all de res’lnshins!” Who wishes to know how to l»e rich and happy ? Let him follow the final example of the rich old African. DO MMBTRHifi. “ For Satan finds some mischief still For idle hands to do." A young man in Portland, Maine, about 21 years of age, named William H. Hall, has lieen sent to the State pris- on for life for the crime of robbery. When he was brought up for trial, he plead as an excuse that he was drunk when he did it. But. so far from being an xcuse, tliis only made the matter w orse. Why did he get drunk I No , one has a right to make himself drunk; i and if he does, the law will |Hinish him There is melody in all tilings. Mu- for the crime he commits; although at sic, “heavenly maid,” is nearly allied the time he has lost his reason. He to the soul of the universe. Poets have committed a crime when he drank what dreamed of the “ music of the spheres,” lie knew would take away his reason, and we read in the Book of Job, that and must be held responsible for what the “ morning stars sang together, and he does. all the sons of men shouted for joy.” j But why did this young man get It there is music, then, even in the ma- | diunk ? Because he was idle. He te; i d wo: 1,1, how great most be its now- had nothing to do. One of the wit- er aud influence in the spi itual ? It j nes«es was asked what business this is the element of harmony throughout I young man followed, and he answered, all the vast variety of mind. There is ; “ / neirr Ineir him to. hr engaged at music in the ocean’s roar, the noise of any businr/ts.” Here is the secret of the cataract, the murmuring brook, the his had character. He was idle, and vvlii-tling wind and the fanning breeze; | idleness is the parent of all vice. Boys and the hueet’s hum, the carolling of sometimes think it a fine thing to have hi ds, the praise of man, and the cm- nothing to do; blithe that has nothing plovment of angels, are all but jwrts to do is in the way of temptation. There of the grind symphony of nature. For ( fore, do something—don’t lie idle; do man there is a charm, a delight, a vir- something, even if you have to heg for tin*, in “ the concord of sweet sounds” work. It is a great mistake to think which suUlues his fierceness, tames his that idleness makes one happy. Shut |M8smns, refines his sentiments, and a man up in prison, in a cell by himself, elevates and spi dualizes the whole and give him nothing to do, aud he will moral and intellectual character. So noon lieg for work. Useful employ- xi ell was this understood by him, who when human nature sat for her portrait, d.vw it to the li e, that he has repre sented all who have “ no music in their souls,” as fit for “ treason stratagem, and sjioils.” Music, especially vocal music, should lie cultivated in every family and social circle. A singing family is always a happy family. It not only exalts the mental and moral emotions, but it is an exercise eminently conducive to physi cal health and vigor. Speech can en lighten the mind, hut song is (teculiariy mlapted to kindle the holy fires of the heart. The closing years of the life of Hichter, like those of Milton, were dar- keued by Itiiudness, but the lively en joyment of music, of which both were deeply susceptible, seemed more than a coii«|>eiisutioit for thir loss. Of Rich ter, it is recorded, that the voice of his children overpowered Itim, and his af fectionate nature wept st their simplest tones. In such a case, the want of a taste for music would have been a mis fortune scarce inferior to blindness it self; indeed, it is a misfortune in sny case. We have often reflected upon the really pitiable condition of a family in which the sweet sounds of iiiumc are never heard—in which its refining, ele vating, soothing influences are never felt. It is diflicult to conceive of any rnnaiderahl* advance in civilization without muric. Music, like a sweet spirit from the skies, was appointed to refine, exalt, and bless us; to lull oar pain, assuage our grief, refresh our lan guor, and stimulate our hearts to high and holy aims. OTen, when we were pursuing the sinriil pleasures of the world, reckless of a life to come, a mothers voice—a voice we have never yet beard equalled in sweetnesw ■wwuhl meut helps to make one happy. If you wish to be miserable, and come to ruin, be lazy. “Fu. Tey.”—That’s right “ I'll try /” It has made many a man. We like to hear the young man speak that phrase with an unction. It shows there’s vitality, hope, valor, genius, matihood, and of the very best sort, in him. “ I’ll try f” It’s the foundation—more, the superstructure of success. Who ever heard of a man’s failing who spoke it with a brave heart, and then followed it with a firm hand. No one, of course, it’s philosophy put straitrht into the Mood, bone, vein, and out it must come in the plump deed and handsome ac tion. “ I'll try /” It has pulled hosts out of the ditch of despair, and put them on better feet than they ever lioasted be fore. It’s effect is electric. It gives the spirit new fire, the mnsrlo new pow er, tlie heart new pulsations, the whole living new tone, strength, elasticity, lio|>e. ” I’ll try ” gave Napoleon an hundred battles; Newton the law of gravitation: Galileo the measurement of time; Franklin the taming of the hghtning; and Morse an obedient ser vant to nur hourly pleasures and wants. Young man, if things look dark, and your neighbor frowns, and trade lags, and love Cools, and you wish to turn them to your likhig, then just say “ 111 try.” Say it with a full tongue and a stoat heart Say H as though you could, aad would, and should do it Put your loot down firmly, and Hit your head bravely, nerve your arm invincibly, and to the work. Depend u|k>ii it you u ill achieve wonders. " I’ll try ” has made every great man what heis-it will make every common one what he would be.— SUUtt Right RejmMican. SKIS IF III4TMK. Fnifh, that l« to say, in all possible spheres the vision of the invisible, and the absent brought nigh, is the energy of life. - We do not go ton tar in say ing that it is the point of departure for all action—since to act is to quit the firm position of the present, ami stretch the hand into the future. But this at least is certain, that faith is the source of every tiling in the eyes of man which Is-ars a character of dignity and force. Vulgar souls wish to see, to touch, to grasp—others have the eye of faith and they are great. It is always bv having faith in others, in themselves, in duty, or in Divinity, that men have done great things. Faith has been in all times the strength of the feeble, the salvation of tlie miserable. In great crises, in grand exigences, the favourable chance lias always been for him who hoped against hope. And the greatness of individuals or of na tions may be measured pre\ iously by the greatness of their faith.— Vine/. Practical Jokkr«.—Wit. hnmor, fun, facet! a of all legitimate kinds, are our especial delight; but that liastard sort of jests, termed “ practical jokes,” are onr utter aversion and abhorrence. We never make them, and never receive them—except ns an effrnnt. ndmittin'g of no justification, and seldom of an apology. Luckily, this style of amuse ment is confined mostly to children and fools. None hut a very dull per son considers it wittvto thrust a pin in your leg, or punch you in the ribs with the head of a walking stick. For though in the one ease you may “ per- ceive tlie point," and •„ ot^r “ob serve the hiioh,” yet neither the one nor the other shows any luilliancy in the mind of the “joker.” or arouses anv other feeling than a desire to “Kick th’ intruder down the entry stairs," by way of fitting retort. Under any pretence whatever, no gentlemen ever takes lilierties w ith the person of anoth er. The plea of “ friendship,” is not only invalid, hut insulting. Cowper said well— “The man who hails me “Tom" or “Jack," And proves by thumping on my back. His sense of my great meri'— I must, of nerd, be his friend indeed, To pardon or to bear it.” [Boston Post. How nk aii is Heaven.—Chris tians sometimes look faraway to heav en; Imt that rest is not far off. The elouds that hide the shining worlds are thin : they are transient, and soon will oliscure no more. The journey may end this hour; one sli " e the Christian in the woild of light; one dark hour may hang upon him; hut the morning comes, and no shade be hind it. Day, bright peacefiil and eter- nal. succeeds it. A pang may lie felt for a moment, and then flies away for ever. A conflict, sharp and painful, may continue for a night, but victory, eternal victory, ensues. How soon, oh! how soon, the Chi istiau's cares are over, his struggling soul at rest, his eyes, suffused no more with tears.— Near at hand is the land of Ins pursuit. Hope cheers. How glorious the ob ject that hope embraces! How holy its spirit. Who t an contemplate the home our heavenly Father is titling for ins children, aud not feel his soul ath irst for its enjoyment and employments f Well these delights, the happy clime, those 'over verdant plains, are not far distant. Pride op a Hoksk.—Animal in stinct is wonderful and highly prolific of interest to the studious mind. The pride of Pompey, which we learned at school and the pride of a cow, which the newspapers have imparted to us, are singularly blended by a cohesion of similitude that evidences the consan guine approximation of moral and phys ical matinees. A country horse, du ring the late sleighing season, that had been driven through the streets of Albany, N. Y., all day, attached to a junqier, stopped dead short when he came up along side of n team w ith jin gling la-ils. Neither whip, goad, vo- ciferative command, nor wrathful tugs at tlie line would do. He wouldn’t go, unless it might lie to go into fits and he kicked the dash hoard into splinters, making the bright shoes of his herds flash in the faces of his drivers—and he threw his harness into a confused state of per|>iexihle entanglement The driver gave up, when a man suggested a trial of hells. They were procured, and the horse trotted off as proudly as if he had been “rnisetl in the rity.” When country horses come to town a si iegh-riding, they want to lie garbed like other people’s horses. Mind (list! Social Intbbcocmk.—W« should make it a priimt|Je to extend the hand of fellowship to every man who dis charges faithfully hi* duties, and inniu- tains good order—who manifest a deep interest In the welfare of general socie ty—whose deportment is upright aud whose mind is intelligent, without stop- C to ascertain whether he swings a mer or draws s thread.

Scene in a Cioab Store in Broad way.—[A very tall and lieantiful rigar vender behind the counter. A short youth, dressed in tlie extreme of fash ion, liefore the counter smoking a long nine.] Incipient Man.—You know that I most distinctly w ish you to understand Kmma, that tlie proposal I have made is entirely honorable—altogether so; and I’ve got the brads, and Fin in hon est earnest. Young Lady.—How very singular? Why, all you little chn|w talk just that way; yon are the hundred and sixty- seventh young dandy that's said just dreciselv the same thing. I’m really sorry; hut as you do seem to really he a niee man, Fm sorry for you, and I’ll tell yon something in eonfidenee. I M.—-That's a darling; lean over so that I can hear yon.* What is it? There’s somelwdv in behind yonder. Y. L.—It’s only him. I. M.—Only who? Y. L.—That’s what I want to tell yon. I’m married to the young man who owns this store! [Incipient young man retires, dis gusted with tlie tricks of trade, and forms a resolution in his little mind, that he will never purchase any more cigars of young women in cigar stores, until he has ascertained whether they are married.]—.Y. I’. Picayune. A Good One.—At a dan;mg party not a hundred miles from here, one of the beaux pro< k „ )i t ,| e « omed.” He. , of course, felt himself as good ns any ! body. Asking a young lady who lives in the vicinity of a grist mill to dance, she dqyliued; whereupon he instituted a parly, remarking " that if lie was not good enough to dance with her, he would go down to the mill and lie , ground over,” “Come down.” said the lady, “ hut you will recollect that the first process in grinding will lie to be run through the Smut Machine." We think it is Dow, Jr., who gives the following quaint advice in one of his “ Patent Sermons “ Let your home be provided with | such comforts and necessaries, as pie- | tv, pickles, |totatoes, |M>t8 and kellies, brush, s, tongs, brooms aud henevo- ! lence, bread and charity, cheese and faith, flour, affection, cider, sincerity. I onions, integrity, vinegar, wine and wisdom. Have all these* always on hand, and happiness will he with you. Don’t diink anything intoxicating—go about yonr business after breakfast— lounge a little after dinner—chat after tea—aud ki^s afierquarrelling; and all the joy, and the peace and the bliss this woild can afford will he yours, till the grave closes over you, and ^ our spirits are lairne to a brighter and a happier sphere. So may it be. A Cheat Mae is affable in his con- versa (Ion, generous in his temper, and immoveable in what he has maturely resolved upon. And as prosperity does not make him haughty and imperious, so neither does adversity sink him into meanness and dejection : for if lie ever shows more spirit than ordinary, it is when lie is illused, and the woild is f owning upon him. In short, he is equally removed from the extremes of severity mul pride, and scorns to tram ple on a worm or cringe to an Enqie- ror. A lady was a-ked to join n division of tlie Daughters of Temperance. She replied, “ It is unnecessary, a* it is my intention to join one of the Stons soon,” A Fair Hit.—When Dr. Francis, of New Yo'k, visited the birthplace of Robert Burns, be said to the widow o'* the immortal bard—“Yonr husband was a magnificent poet: his name i- well known and honored throughout America; he was truly a great genius.” “ I have hern told so since his death,” was the reply. The ( hiuese have an axiom, and a heauti ill truism it is. too, that when one person is idle a single day, w ithout just pause or necessity, some nne must suf- fer by it, “I’ve risen from the Bar to the Bench,” as the young lawyer said when ! he quit the law and went to “ shoe-ma king.” Unkiiidness lias no remedy at law. Look up, ye Disconsolate! The sulieeribcr. having looted himself twelve miles south-west of Society Hill, would respectfully inform any person or jiersons who may be suffering from the effects of cancer, or anything assuming the character of cancer, that if they will call at his residence at any time between the 15th of Sepieinber and the 15th of May, and pul themselves under his treat ment. he will deal candidly with them, and : f he does not effect a permanent cure, they shall receive their board and his services free of charge. Having had considerable experience, in ibis practice, he feels no hesitation in extending the in vitation. He intends devoting himself exclusively to this business. JAMES O. HALE. Jan 1953 19 3t Sports of Childhood.—A celebra ted female writer thus pleads the cause of the little girls: “ I plead that she lie not punished as a romp, if she keenly enjoy those active sports which city gentility proscribes. I plead that the ambition to make her accomplished, do not chain her to the piano, til! the spinnl column, which should consolidate the frame, starts aside like n broken reed—nor bow her over her back, till tlie vital energy, which ought to pervade tlie whole frame, mounts to the brain, and kin dles the death fever.” To Cure Love.—Take of manu factured hemp, about six feet; of cou rage, enough to make a slipuoose ami place it around your neck; of resolu tion, enough to fasten it to the top of a tree; and of determiunlioii, sufli- crefit to take a leap downwards. If this does not effect a cure, get married. 'Flic prominent characteristics of the jemale mind is affection; and that of the male mind is thought, though both have affectum aud thought; hut dis- jurrity does not imply inferiority. The sexes are intended for different spheres ofli'e, and are created in couformitv to their destination by Him who bids the oak brave the fury of the tempest, and the Alpine flower lean its cheek on the bosom of eternal snow. Can one imagine any tiling more cheei less than a bachelor’s hed-cham- l»er! Possibly the Dismal Swamp mnv make some pretensions to similarity. Men began to wear ear-rings in France during tlie reign of Henry VII. “One of the raritiea of lifir,” says Eliza Cook, “ is a woman thoroughly satisfied with her daughter-in law.” Wed nesdajr i* the proper time to get married. “ Bobby, what business did your father follow f” “ It was something connected with bank—Imt whether - it was banker or bankrupt, blow me if I can tell.” Bob. by, ws regret to say, is still in doul*. The passions maybe humored till they become our master, as a horse may be pampered till he gets the better of bis rider; bat eatjy discipline will prevent mutiny, and keep the helm in the hands of reason.
