leep humility lhal it cnieB befoie (iod ' i and if not thus, the nation will learn the le-fcon of God in some other way. God j hath not forgotten to bo giacious, our crimes and sins as a nation bavs brought us where we ar?. Greater punishments have been given to thosu who rebelled against His "oodness and justice, Famine, and l'e-tilenee have done their dreadful work. Hut our days of trouble are as well days of prosperity. (Here our local prosperity was epoken of.) "We have had eery blessing, every ad vantage, and i. is the po jr spirit of inlileliiy and the meaner ot,e of ingratitude, that cannot to-day thank God for all the-e great beiieti'8. Tiie lime that is upon us shouM lie a time for rcibcnaiioii, and the reior, nation slnndd consist in this: Keep fue liom every wiekid ihing." 4iJehovah looketh from Heaven, He bvilioldeth all iho sons of men. 1'ioni lbplace of II.s habitation lie Iwoketh upon all ihe inhabitants of the earth and cons.d ereth their workB.' He then locks upon u and consider our works, at'd behotdeth A great people degetieiated and daily more and more dgen..rfif'r from the no-

ble simplicity and manly integrity of their forefathers, depraving their minds with bad principles, enfeebling their bodies by vice and effeminacy, squandering their money at gaming tables, comm tling acts of violence, rage and fury, r.nd rushing recklessly forward to meet their Judge-

He beholdeth shameful luxury and most uuwar rantable dissipation increasing with the distresses of the times. His ordinances neglected, His Sabbaths profaned, His Sacraments disparaged, His Temples violated, the Infidel openly reviling or covertly mocking, while the ''Faith once deliv ered to the Saints," is deserted for the dregs of parad xical and absurd scepticism held by men who by their influence and example would leave us literally a Nation without God. Thus by showing National sins wo may dicover National blessings, and will not accuse God for our wickedness nor make s:ieh grievous objection to keep heartily this dav of Thanksgiving. or As our sins have brought us where we are, one thing, and one thing only, can restore to us 0111 former peace and assure to j u future prosperity.

John Tyler's face, with i s enormous no-e, was familiar to all, from ihe frequency with which it was .'ecu in public. Gen. Taylor, during his short term, made a daily walk upon the avenue,

1x12c A Scccfcioiiit? Says the New Yoik Post: T. A. Hendricks, of Indiana, who as- ! pires to succeed Jesse D. Bright in the ; Unite J States Senate, is a Secessionist of' the first water. In a speech made by him last year, he sain: "The first and highest, interest of the Northwest is 1:1 the restoration and preservation of the Union upon the basis of the constitution, and the deep devotion ot her Democracy to the cause of the Union is shown by its fidelity in the past; bul if the failure and folly and wickedness of th party in power render a Union impossible,

then the mighty Northwest must take care j "Pou lho ,jUnS ,,f a whisky barrel, and afot herself and her own inteiests, She i tT a while goeth away, rejoicing in must no: allow the arts and finesse 0f! his strategy.

Mr. Hendricks a secessionist of the first j ftbound ,!0t in the nmsry Departwater, or any i:her water. It is difficult j nunt f'.r one to exnrcss attachment to the IT,,. G An1 mhnT ol,,er lh'ln& n the "re-

ion more stroly than he expresses it in this ,-xiraet. BeVo 1 t!;at. "il the failure , , , . . and w h and wiekedn of t! party j power shall render a Union impo-sibie.' he simply piopo-es that the ;orlhwst hall lake care of herself and her own in terests. In other woids, if New England' fanatieiitn shall succied in permanently dividing the Union, he proposes that the Northwest hall not settle down into playing the part of tail to the New England kite. If stub principles are treason, abolitionism will have to nvike the most of it It would have been a great remedy for New England fanatic'iMn. if it had bien long ag underst od that if the old Union should be broken up, New England sec tional inteiests. which have had such ex traordinary protection in the old U.don, j would he left out in the cold in future combinations. Mf. Ilendiicks uttered the unmistakable voiv-e .f the No, thwe.-t. That voice is for ihe old Union so long äs there fdiall be the remotest hope -f its lesioration; but if "New England fanaticism atitl f!!y and wickedness hall make restoration impo-si-ble," the Northwest will take care of herKelf and her own interests. Tlie Triumph of Iu!itioiiits in old Federal 31aaclitifcctts. No Democrat that we have seen appears the least distressed by the fact that Massachusetts an exeepii-.n to the list of States w hich went Democratic at the late elections. From her antecedents it was to be expected. She opposed JefhVrson, and she opposed Jackson. Since the Revolutionarv war she has never been right in her a. a polo tic-. Sho has an uncontrollable propensity to take the wrong side. The Milwnukie News thus reviews her action. It says: "ABOLITION MASSACHUSETTS." ''Our republican cotemporaries boast over the abolition triumph in Massachusetts. They may bake her. She has burned women at the stake. She has hung Quakers for opinion sake. She has whip ped men for kissing their wives on Sun day. he ha resisted lh Federal laws. She was the uir.hor of the Hartford Convention. Sh-' manufactured lhe blue-lights burned at New London for lb.' benefit of our enemies in the late war. She has mobbed Cuivcuti and refused to pay the loss. She refines Charters to Col!cgs which do not subsciibe to the religious sentiments ol her people. She resoiv.-d the Union dis solved, bvCau-e we added the L-)ne Star of Texas lo our banner. She welcomes her negro population to the- polls, atnl drives white men away b-a:ise of their poveily or their place of birih. She imprisons Democrats, and refuses t furnish n.en lor the army except upon conditions. Gd forbid lhat she should vote the Democrati ticket." Such a Slate could hardly bo Democratic. How t Keep Potatoes irom IIotTINo. A coriespondiMit of the Scientific American sas tli .t he his tried the I'd lowing plan ol keeping potatoes, for four years, ami has not lost a bushel in llmt time after ihey were hat vested: though iu sme ea-es they were half diseased when uken out of the ground. "Dust over tho floor of the bin with slacked lime and then put iu about six or seven inches deep of potatoes ami dust ith lime as before. Fut in six or seven inches deep of potatoes again and dust with lime as befoie, repeating the operation till all arc stowed in lhat way. One bi'shel of lime is sufficient for forty bushels id potatoes, 5-yough more w'.ll not hurt them. Tho bare, rather improves the flavor than otherwise.

The Louisville Journal has learned, from what it deems the highest authority, a little incident in regard to Owen Lovejoy that may be worth telliug. Lovejoy was a looker on at the first battle of Bull Ran. When our troops were in full and precipitate retreat, the day having been helplessly lost, be rode up to a Federal officer who had fought with terrib'e deeieration throughout the bettle, and who has since won a Major Generalship in a still bloodier Lttil", and obtruded him some advice as to the conduct of the retreat. The ofiicer paid no attention to his remark, not even seeming to hear him. The pcrtina cious Lovejoy then said, 'I thit.k you don't know me." "Yi s, I do know you, Owen Lovejoy!" replied the officer fureeIv. "I know you well. But for you and fcuch as you, these calamities would never hive come upon us. Get out of my way, and out of my sight this instant, you blackhearted scoundrel! ' and here the officer bra nli bed his sword all reeking with reb el blood "or I will cleave vou to the earth."

Ear Kusel then gives the de ision other Majesty '3 government .is foihttr. "After weighing all information received fiom America, the government is Jed to conclude that there is no ground at tarn present m..ment ti hope that the Federal government would accept the proposal suggested, and a refusal from Washington at the present tim. would prevent any speedy renewal of the offer of the government;" therefore he thinks "it better to watch carefully the progress of opinion in America, and if, as there appears reason to hope, it may be found to have under gone, or may undergo-, any (.hange, thij government may then avail themselves of such change to oller t'ieir fiiendly counsel, with a greater prospect than now exists of its being aecep'ed by the two contending parties.
