A HOUR LIFE.—Th© beauty of a holv life constitutes the most eloquent and effective persuMivo to religion whioh one human being can address to another. We have many ways of doing good to our fellow creatures, but none cious as leading a vhrtuoua* upright, and well-ordered life. There an energy of moral soasion in l?ood l![° passing the ftigbe« efforts of the o«tor's eeiius. J^he seen but silent be«u tv of lionness speaks more eloquent of God and duty, than the tongues of nren and angels. Let the parents re* member .hi.. Th. be« ,nheri..nc. parent cmb bequeath to a child, is a v»rTUOUS example, a legacy of hallowed remembrances anifr associations. The beauty of RoBnese, beaming through the life of a loved relative or friend is more effectual to strengthen such as do stand in virtue4« ways, and to raise up those that are bowed down, than precept, command, entreaty or warning.— Christianity itself, I believe, owes by far the greater part of ita moral power, not to the precepts or parables of Christ, but to Ws own character. The beauty of that holiness which is enshrined in the four brief biographies of the Man of Nazareth, has done more, and will do more to regenerate the world and bring to an everlasting righteousness than all the other agencies put together, it has done more to spread his religion in the world than all that has ever been preached or written on the evidences of Christianity.—Religions Herald. 1
The Effects of Learning apon the Coantenance. A cultivated mind will always show itself in every lineament of the face and when the mind is filled with pure and intellectual thoughts, how soft and interesting will be the expression of the countenance.
Mark the difference of expression between an educated person and an ignoran* one. Thv tgnormath gaze seems ever vacant and wandering the expression lifeless save when lit up by excitement, or radiant by the effect of some passing pleasure. While with the educated, the eye is bright, and the countenance ever changing with the changing thought, which gives rise to the different emotions of the heart. Much as we value our good loots how little do we think "that a cultivated mind gives life to physical beauty." How often do we find persons who surrounded by all that wealth and art can give for cultivation, with countenance inexpressive of that refinement which we are led to expect from their station and opportunities. They may be fashionable and accomplished but these alone have no power to wake the mind. While in the humbler walks of lifo, how often do we meet a face lovable simply from its expression, bespeaking thought and virtue tor we are not only gainers in happiness by the cultivation of the mind and .heart, but in a worldly light we add to •ttr personol attractions. For thought emanating from a pure heart and mind, depicted oa the countenance is tar saper^pr to beauty. We may gaze upon a wax figare for a few moments, with ad* miration but the mind soon grows wearied it has no power to satisfy, but a parsing moment. "The face is the mirror of the mind and as the heart has no secrets which are not at some time shown In the acts, so the mind has no thought, and the heart no emotion, whether lofty or drgrading, which are not more or Jess, portrayed upon the features." We gaze upon arose its beauty soon withers. The beauty of girlhood soon vanishes. A few yeais of sickness, and wtidt a change! The complexion once ihirand beautiful, is cone! The sprightly and animated sparkle of the eye has become dimmed, and where is rhe beauty which a short time before we adonijred? But a face exhibiting a beauty of mind and foeart is imperishable.— Sickness caanet impair it, nor time deface it. M. A. G.
THE FLYING SHIP. —We learn from the New York Tribune that Mr. Rufus Porter is progressing with his flying ship. The most essential part of the apparatus is ready for inflation with air; the longitudinal rods, rudder, pulleys, replenishing pipes, and saloon wires will soon be adjusted. The engines are superior both in construction and style.— The floor of the saloon is twenty feet in length by six in breadth, and consists of a combination of upward of one hundred and forty pieces of spruce timber, and strong enough to sustain forty persons, yet its entire weight it only twenty five pounds. The floor of the en-gine-room is arraigned to be independent of the main floor, and the engine and boiler are so arranged as to be at any time instantly disconnected from the wheels and detatched from the saloon, should occasion so require, for the purpose of repair or otherwise. If the weather continues favorable, and no unforseen misfortune prevents, Mr. Porter expects to gratify the friends of the project in about two weeks time by a successful demonstration. ~~~~~~~
A ROMANTIC SbiciMt.—A man named Patrick Barileu recently committed sui cide in Pike couniy, A Is., by hanging himself soon after his marriage. The Troy Palladium says: lie had been to love-with a young lady, but waa prevented feyaome means, from marrying her, and wedded another. Soon after hie marriage, he carried his -wife to see his parents, snd there met ^he you® lady, hie former love, to whom b« appeared to have been devotedly attached. Their feeling* upon mealing overcame their sense of pre* priety, and they m»hed iaio each other's arms, embraced and were melted to tears. This seems to have revived, in a ten fold degree, bis lov« for her and after carrying his wife back to her parents, he said he woeld go to Troy and mail a Iener which he had written hot it appeals he came to the determination on tbe way to destroy himself, which he did, in the manner aboE described.
THE Oanca or TH* LOH* 8TA*.— According to the New York Courier, there are fifty divisions of tbe Lone Star In the United States, the object of which association is to revolutionize Cuba and annex it to tbe United States. Eacfe member must pay at least three dollars initiation, five dollars for the second degree, and five dollars for the third besides four shllltoga monthly dirts
OuTRAGEOtja CaOEtTY AND_ SPEEDY RETSIBUTION.—The Memphis Enquirer states that a few days ago a man named Mathew Rayner, who resides in the vicinity of Raleigh, in ihat county* had one of his negr«
men
apprehended
to run away, lie
him in Memphis, and took
him home. The next day he commenced his cruel and fiendlike punishment, and after inflicting upon him hundreds of lashes, concluded by cutting off both of the slave's ears close to his head. The shocking facts spread through the neighborhood, and news was some wav conveyed todUyner that a warrant had bee* issued for his spprehension. Upon hearing this he immediately left the country, and arrived at the residence of a Mr. fterad, in Tipton county, where he died the next day. G/TV
One of the best disinfecting agents for damp cellars and other mephetic localities, is common copperas. A few pounds ot this agent dissolved in water and sprinkled over the obnoxious place will dissipate any unpleasant or offensive odors.
GEN. SCOTT AND NATUBALIXATION.— The following extract from General Scott's letter 6f the 29th of May, 1848, should be kept constantly before the peo pie, as it presents his real views on the subject of the naturalization laws, so much misrepresented b^ those who desire his defeat: *•Certainly it would he impossible for me to recommend or support any measure intended to exclude them (the adopted citizens) from a just and full participation in all civil and political rights now secured to them by our republican laws and institutions." "I have served the Union for forty odd years, and feel myself a citizen of every part of it and whatever of life and strength 1 may have shall be devoted to its preservation."—Gen. Winfield Scott's Castle Garden speech.
THE COLORED POPUI^ATION OF THE WESTERN WORLD.—In the "anti-slave-ry Reporter," we find the following computation of the population of African descent now existing in the New World: United States Brazil Spanish Colonies South American Republics British Colonies Hsyti French Colonies Dutch Colonies Danish Colonies Mexico Canada

FOUR-LEGGED ARTILLSKT.—Sara. Houston's Flying Artillery, used at the battle of Sao Jaciuto, was one four pounder, lashed with a piece of raw hide to the back of a jackass. When the piece was discharged, it would throw hitn forward on his face with such force as to detain him in that position until the piece was reloaded, and as be rose and brought it within range of the Mexicans the match was applied, and away went the animal on his face and knees, and away went thunder and flame and death dealing balls, and away went the Mexicans belter skelter.
to Boulogne. This boat is 235 feet long, 20 feet beam, of 250 tons burden, and has an engine of 50 horse power. The baw and stern are filled with fixed air, like a life boat. If it meets the expectations of the inventor and builders, two immense vessels of 10,000 tons and 1,000 horse power will at once be built on the same plan: they will run from London the East Indies in 30 days, without
A Washington letter-writer describes a scene with one of the Congressional door keepers: "A genrieman on business here, anxious to listen to the debates, very coolly opened one of the doors of the Senate, and waa about to pass in, when the doorkeeper said: "Are you a privileged member?" "What do you mean by such a man?" asked the stranger. The reply was—a Governor, an ex-member of Congress, or a fbreign minister. The stranger satd,"l am a minister." "From what court or country if you please?" asked the official. "From the court of Heaven, sir (very gravely pointing up.) To this the door-keeper very waggishly replied: "This government, at present, holds no intercourse with that foreign power."
Lowell now contains a population of 33,385 employs a capital of $12,362,400 runs fifty mills with 325,500 spindles, and 9,906 looms.
Lowell, last year, gave employment to 11,976 hands—3,702 mates, and 8,274 females. These hands made per wrak, the p«t year, 2,190,000 yards of cotton, 20,000 yards of woolen, and 15,000 yarda of carpeting. In the manufacture of these articles, they used up every 7 days, 676,000 pounds of cotton, end 69,000 pounds of wool. The consumption of coal by the Lowell fsctories. during the year 1851, amounted to 28,220 tons anthracite and 26,000 bushels charcoal. To grease their machinery, the company, (Hiring the sente y**r, consumed 69.000 gallons of oil, and 39,000 pounds of lard.

Democrat, loses over 600 votes. His majority last year w&a 1,600 when there was no choice. Three Whig members of Congress, Washburn, Farney and Benson, are certainly elected McDonald, Democrat, is elected beyond a doubt, and Fuller, Democrat, probably. The Legislature will probably be Democratic, though it is still doubtful, for so far, the Whigs have gained five members. In the House, last year, the Democratic majority was thirty.
The Whig meeting was immense. Monument Square brilliantly illuminated, and the monument was hung with lights. The ward clubs marched with transparencies— several large ones were on poles, and two ships drawn by horses. They had a fine display of rockets and fireworks in front of the court house, which waa beautifully desorated with the motto, Scott and Graham, and the union fireworks representing the names of the candidates, surrounded by flags in the background. The concourse present was immense—the largest meeting ever held in the city. Speeches were made by H. W. Davis, Judge Thompson, of Indiana, Hon. John M. Clayton, and others. The enthusiasm was unprecedented.
The Democratic mass meeting at the Exchange Place was large. The stand was brilliantly illuminated with a large number of transparencies, brought by the ward clubs, surrounding it. Bonfires were burned at each end of the square, and fireworks and rockets occasionally set off. The meeting was large, but not equal to the Whig meeting. Great enthusiasm prevailed. Speeches were delivered by Gov. Francis Thomas, Henry Bedinger, and others,

BOSTON, Sept. 14.
Returns from two hundred and eighteen towns in Vermont show that the Whig candidate for governor has been defeated by the people, and indicate the election of 96 Whig and 83 opposition representatives, and 25 Whig and probably 5 opposition senators.— fldteacham and Tracy, Whigs, are elected to Congress. Sabin is defeated.
Additional returns from Maine confirm the defeat of Hubbard, who will lack, from present appearances, 4,000 votes. Chandler and the Maintf law will reach'2,000. Three Whigs and three Democrats are elected to Congress. The Democrats will probably have a small majority in the House.

It ia the chief element, or Great Digesting Principle of the Gastric Juice—the solvent of tbe food, the Purifying, Preserving, and Stimulating agent of the Stomach and Inteatlnea. It ia extracted trom the digestive stomach of the Ox, thus forming a True Digestive Fluid, precisely like the natural Gantric Juice in ita chemical powers, and furnishing a complete and perfect substitute for it.
Thi* is Nature's own rem 3d for an unhealthy stomach. No art o» man can equal ita curative powers. It contains no Alcohol, Bitters, Acids, or Nauseous Drugs. It is extremely agreeable to the taste, and may be taken by the moat feeble patianta who cannot eat a water crackcr without acute distress. Beware of Drugged tmtatum. Pepsin is not a drug,

Dealers who have been accustomed to making their purchases in the eastern cities, will find that they can do equally as well here in point of pries and quality, and in addition ta thia they can always buy just what they want, and may fill up their stocks as they may desire, without the inconvenience of waiting six weeks or two months for a tupply from tbe East.
