Grease is made from COAL OIL, and has been found by repeated tests to be the most economical, and at the same time the best lubricator for Mill Uearing, Stages, Wagons, Carts, Carriages, V ehicles of all kinds, and all heavy bearings, keeping the axles always cool, and not requir' ing them to be looked after for weeks. It has been tested on railroad cars, and with one -oaking of the waste it has run, with the cars, 2u,U00 miles ! All railroad, omnibus, livery stable and Express companies that have tried it pronounce it the tie plus ultra. it combines the body and fluidity of tallow, beeswax and tar, and unlike general lubrica tors, will not run off, it being warranted to stand any temperature. 1 have it in boxes 2f to 10 lbs. Also kegs and barrels from 30 to 400 lbs, for general •jse and sale. The boxes are more prefera ble; they are 0 inches in diameter by 2$ inches deep, and hold lbs net; the boxes are clean, and hardly a carman, teamster, expressman, dler or farmer, that would not purchase one box for trial.

It is not the oaths and blasphemies of the vile sot through the streets which ex ert an influence upon the young minds for evil ; because in the character and appear ance of the wretch who utters them, they behold a fit commentary and a warning, all in accordance with their views of nature. But it is the oaths and blasphemies of the respectable and otherways virtuous that do the injury. I would rather a child of mine would hear the whole vocabulary of oaths, with all its transpositions and variations, from the lips of a vile abandoned outcast, from whose person he would shrink with loathing, than to hear a single oath front one of you who have a character and influ ence in society. I am aware that it is a practice thoughtlessly acquired, and often continued by the mere force of habit. It is simply a repetition of the same act so often that it no longer excites attention, and thus the heart becomes an overflowing fountain of corruption, sending forth its poisoned streams to kill and destroy. to the grave of buried love, and meditate. There settle thy accounts with thy conscience for every past benefit unre quited —-every past endearment unregarded, of that departed being who can never— never—never return to be soothed by thy contribution ! If thou art a child, and hast ever added a sorrow to the soul, or a furrow to the silvered brow of an affection ate parent; if thou art a husband, and hast ever caused the fond bosom that ventured its whole happiness ir thy arms to doubt one moment of thy kindness and truth; if thou art a friend and hast ever wronged in thought, or word, or deed, the spirit that generously confided in thee; if thou art a lovor, and bast ever given one unmerited pang to that true heart which now lies cold beneath thy feet—then be sure that every unkind look, every ungracious word, every ungentle action, will come thronging back upon thy memory, and knocking dolefully at thy soul —then be sure that thou wilt lie down sorrowing and repentant on the grave, and utter the unheard groan, and pour the unavailing tear —more deep, more bitter, because unheard and unavailing. Edited by A, SMITH, County Superintendent. jFor the Educational Column. The Causes of ttfre War. No. 2 In assigning the principal cause of the present war, it is difficult to speak so as to avoid giving offence to some well-meaning, but narrow minded persons. Let me be truth ful, however, aad state what, by the confes sion of the Rebels themselves, was tha origin of the outbreak against the government. — They affirm that it was negro slavery ; Vice President Stephens, one of the most able and candid of all who have taken part in urging on the rebellion, frankly avowed that the ob ject of the Recession was to found a govern ment whose corner-stone should be Slavery. The testimony of others of the Rebels, in whose word any trust can be reposed, is only confirmatory of this assertion. It is claimed by them, and by their apolo gists and secret well-wishers at the North, that their special rights had been violated, that they were in danger of being thrust into ruin by the spirit of Abolitionism. But Judge Douglas, wham all will admit as a reliable wit ness on this point, only a short time before his death declared that the rights of the South had not been violated to any extent justifies- WEDNESDAY, MAY 21, 1862. Tory of rebellion ; that the Constitution would be interpreted by the present Administration so as not to interfere with any of the institu tions ot the South more than with those of the North. Let it, tlien, be everywhere understood ami confessed that this most terrible war is the direct outgrowth of the spirit of Slavery ; let U be frankly acknowledged by us, as it is universally recognised by foreign nations, and as it will assuredly bo'written on the page of History, But why is it so important that our chil dren be informed of this ? Just for this rea son: they are soon to become the active, con trolling influence of the country : into their hands must soon pass the power to make and administer the nation's laws, to fashion its institutions, to determine its destiny. And the future character of the land we love is to be moulded by those whose minds and wills are now plastic—ready to be impressed with gonerous sentiments, ennobling truths and high resolve. Hence we ought to set forth with unmistakable vividness this new illus tration of the truth that Righteousness alone exalteth a nation, while sin is not only a re proach hut an imminent peril to any people. It is of the utui >st importance that the ris ing generation leara and heartily believe that 'the one sacred thing beneath the cope of heav en is man and that a wrong done to hu manity, even if done to the poorest, the weak est, the least lovely, is a sin against Him who made and who loves all. This simple but most comprehensive truth is true, and will for ever remain true, in spite of the sneers and opposition which prejudice and blind parti sanship can marshal against it: for it is found ed on the immovable rock of Christianity; it commends itself to the heart, judgment and conscience of every noble man. The signs of the times are full of prophecies that this truth is last becoming recognized, and that it will enter largely into the institutions which shall hereafter give this Republic a name as pure and commanding as the most ardent pa triot can covet for it. Freedom of body and soul; growth in knowledge and virtue; enjoy ment of whatever privileges minister to the happiness and elevation of human beings;— these must be won and securely held, and faithfully transmitted to those who shall conic after us. I hen no war like the present cau ever again shroud our country in so sad a gloom. g HOW HARRY FELL Iff LOVE. 15Y JAMES 11. DANA. All the girls in Flowcrvale were in love with Harry Vernon ; that is to say, they admired him excessively, and were ready to fall in love, if lie should lead the way. Fanny .Soiuers, the little witch, was the only exception. Merry, dancing and pret ty as a fairy, it was a question whether she had ever yet thought of love; if she h .d, she never talked of it Harm's father was a Senator in Congress, and he himself was a young lawyer of' bril liant talents, finished cdim ation and hand some fortune. It was known that his fa ther wished hi in to marry, and did not, as is often the case, insist o his selecting an heiress. The now gray-haired statesman had made a love-match in his youth, and still worshiped the memory of his wife he had too early lost. 'Let your heart choose, nay son,' he said. 'Marriage, without true affection, holds out but a poor show for happiness.' Most of those, not directly interested in the event, thought that Isabel Fortescue wou'd carry off the prize. She was decid edly the belle of the village. Having re ceived her education at a fashionable Sem inary, there was scarcely an accomplish ment of which she could not boast. Resides, the families of Vernon and Fortescue had been the leading ones in the county for two generations ; and gossips said that the union of the two fortunes and of the united in fluence, would give Hurry a position almost unrivaled. Certain it is, that Harry visited Isabel very often. Those who envied her accused her of manoeuvering to win him. 'Throws herself in his way continually,' said one. 'Did ever anybody,' cried another, 'see a girl make love so barefacedly ?' 'She ought to get hina, I'm sure,' sneered another, 'for she has tried hard enough.' Nevertheless, as honest chroniclers, we must record the fact, that some of these very young ladies, such is the infirmity of human nature, did their very prettiest to out-manueuvre Isabel and get Harry for themselves. Harry had not seen Fanny since she was a child. It was only a month since she had left school and returned home again ; and the first time she joined in the village social circle was at a picnic. Here her blooming complexion, graceful figure and ringing laugh had been the theme of ad miration by the beaux, the envy of the belles. Harry had been her partner in a dance or two, and, in common with others, felt it would be only civil to call upon her. So the morning after the party he sallied forth to make the round of the village girls. He first visited Isabel. She was reclin ing in a feanteuil, charmingly dressed, and reading a novel. All she could talk about was her fatigue. Yet, she looked bewitch 'ng'y> was incontestible, in the subdued light of that sumptuous parlor, with ele gant pictures on the walls, boquets of flow ers all about, and an atmosphere of exqui site refinement around. Never had Harry felt so much tempted to be in love. He staid nearly an hour, when he had intend ed to stop only for a few minutes; and would oat, perhaps, hav* gone then, if oth er gentlemen had not dropped in. From Isabel's he went to several olher houses. Everywhere he found the young ladies dressed to receive company. Some were reading novels; some had 'a book of poetry open before them ; and cdc, who had a pretty hand, was coquettishly kuittiog a purse. Not one of them appeared to have anything serious to do. Most of them af fected, like Isabel, to be quite languid, and talked as if the fatigue of the day before ; had nearly killed them. W lion Harry reached the pretty, but un pretending cottage where Fanny resided with her widowed mother, he found the hall door opened to admit the breeze, and so just tapping at the parlor entrance, he entered bowing. In the shaded light of the cool fragrant room, lie could no°for a moment see; but he noticed immediately that no one answered his salutation, and, d.rcctly, he beheld that the apartment was empty. Just then, however, a fresh liquid voice, merry as a bird's in June, was heard warbling in an inner apartment. Harry listened awhile charmed; but find ing that his knocking was not heard, and recognizing, as he thought, Fanny's voice, finally made bold to go in search of the singer. Passing down the hall and through another open door, he suddenly found him self in the kitchen, a large, airy apartment, scrupulously clean, with Fanny at the end opposite him, standing before a dough trough, kneading flour and carolling like a lark ! It was a picture an artist would love to . paint, fanny s face was seen partly in profile, showing to perfection her long lash ! es, and bringing out in relief the pouting I lips and round chin. The breeze blew he'r brown curls playfully about, and occasion ally (juite over her lace, at which time she would throw them back with a pretty toss of the head. Jler amis were bare, and rounded whiter or more taper arms never were ; they fairly put to shame, with their rosy pearlness, the snowy flour powdered over theia. As she moved with quick steps at her task, her trim figure showed all its grace, and her neat ankle and deli cate foot twinkled in and out. For a while she did not observe Ilarry. It was not till she turned to put down the that she behold hirn. Most of our fair readers, we suppose, would have screamed, and perhaps run out of the opposite door. Fanny did no such thing She blushed a little, as was natu ral, but having no false shame, she saw no reason to be frightened, merely because a handsome young gentleman had caught her at work. So she curtesied prettily, laugh ed aac of her gayest laughs, and said, hold ing up her hands : 'I can t shake hands with you, Mr Yer uon, you see. Mamma was kind enough to let urn go to the picnic, yesterday; and put off some of my gmrk; and so I'm doing double to-day, to make up for it. If you'll be kind enough to wait a minute, I'll call mamma.' 'No, no,' said Ilarry, charmed by this frank innocence, and unceremoniously tak ing a well scrubbed chair, 'l've only a few minutes to stay. My call is on you ; I came to see how you bore the fatigues of yester day.' fanny laughed till her teeth, so white and so little, looked behind the rosy lips, like pearls set in the richest ruby enamel, 'fatigued,' why, we had such a charming time yesterday, that one couldn't get tired; even if she had been a hundred years old.' '\ ou il never grow old !' said Harry, sur prised into what would have been flattery, if he had not sincerely thought it; and his countenance showed his admiration for the bright, happy creature before him. fanny blushed; but rallied, and answer ed, laughingly : 'Never grow old ! O, soon enough ! What a funny sight I'll be, to be sure, bent almost double, and a cap on my head like granny Horn's!' Ilarry laughed too, so ludicrous was the imago; and thus he and Fanny were as much at home with each other at once, as it they had been acquainted for years. 1 he intended five minutes imperceptibly grew into ten, and the ten into half an hour. Fanny continued at her household i work, pleasantly chatting the while, both ! she and Harry mutually interested so as to ; forget time and plaee alike. At last the j entrance of Mrs. Somers interrupted the | tete-a-tete.. Fanny was a little embarrassed ! when she found how long she and Ilarry had been alone; but the easy-of-course man ner of Harry, as he shook hands with her mother, restored her to herself. If the elegaut refinement about Isabel I had tempted Ilarry to fail in love, the household charm which surrounded Fanny forced him to be so whether or no. He went away, thinking to himself what a charming wife Fanny would make, and how sweetly she would look in her neat home dress, engaged in her domestic duties. Nor is Harry the only bachelor who remembers that a wife cannot always be in full dress, . and who naturally wishes to know how she ■ will look in a kitchen. 'A wife ought as to know how to manage her house,' he said to himself, 'as a man to understand business. I don't wish a wife of mine, in deed, to be maid of ail work; but I should like to have her oapable of overseeing her servants—and domestics discover very soon whether their mistress is competent, and obey or disregard her accordingly. Besides, l'anny looked bewitchingly this morning. Ah, it I had such a dear little wife, how I'd coai her to go into the kitchen occa sionally, that I might seo her at work 1' It soon became apparent that it would be no fault of Harry's if he did not have l'anny for a wife. Never was a man dcop er in love, nor did he make an effort to conceal it. Ilad Fanny been a foolish flirt, she would have played with his feelings, as vain girls will when secure of a lover. But she was too frauk and toe good for this, and only hesitated long enough to be cer tain of the state of her own heart, when she made Harry happy by accepting him. Two persons more fitted for each other, in fact could not be. Though always mer ry, because always happy, Fanny was ami able, intelligent and full of sound sense.— She had read and thought a great deal; especially for one so young, her heart ran over with 'unwritten poetry.' Had Harry sought for a lifetime, he could not have found a wife so companionable and so suit ed in every way to him. hat a talk the engagement made when it came out. The haughty Isabel, who, without being half as capable of sincere love as Fanny, had made up her mind to have Harry, and whose vanity, therefore, was piqued, even degraded herself so much as to call the bride-elect 'an artful and in teresting puss.' Other disappointed beau ties had other hard names for Fanny. But though when our heroine first heard of these slanders she shed a few tears, she soon dried her eyes, for, with Harry's love, nothing could make her long unhappy. It was not till the young couple had set off on their wedding tour, that Harry told his wife what had first made him fall in love with her. 'Every other girl I visited that morning,' he said, 'was playing the fine lady; and that, while as I well knew, their mothers were slaving in the kitchen. I reasoned that the daughter who would neglect her duty to a parent, could scarcely be expect ed to be less selfish toward a husband. Be sides, it is a common error with your sex, now-a days to suppose that it is debasing to engage in domestic duties. To a man of sense, dearest, a woman never looks more attractive than at such a time.' B©„A clergyman in Scotland, being en gaged in catechizing a number of his pnr ishoners, asked a man by the name of Pe tcr : 'How many years did the children of Israel sojourn in the wilderness?' To which he replied, 'Forty.' 'But can you tell, sir;' said I'etcr, 'how many knives the children of Israel brought back with them from Babylon to Jerusalem V The clergyman stopped and pondered, and was at length obliged to confess that he could give no answer. 'Well,' sai<l Peter, 'they just brought back tycnjty nine knives : you will find it stated in Ezra, first .chapter, ninth verse.' A lady asked a pupil at public ex amination of a Sunday School: 'What was the sin of the Pharisees ?' 'Eating camels, inarm,' quickly replied the child. She had read the Pharisees 'Strained at gnats and swallowed camels.' TEE GAZETTE. Nominations for State Officers. The Lewisburg Chronicle, in publishing the call for the People's Convention, makes the following proposition, which, for one, we should like to see adopted. It says : In proof of our willingness to voto for an upright Douglas Democrat, we propose lion. JOUN IIOWJE, of Franklin county, as the Union Republican candidate for Surveyor General. All parties have ever awarded him personal integrity and ability for that station, which he once filled by election as a Democrat, while, as the Union speaker of the House, last ses sion, he demonstrated that he hud no sympa thy with Secession or its allies. His nomina tion and election would be as politic as just to the thousands of honest Democrats who despise the Breckinridge leaders who broke up their party and apologized for causeless Insurrection of the Aristooracy. For Auditor General, we presume Hon. THOMAS E. CGCHRAX will have no serious op position. He has been a most faithful officer, as far as we have heard—and if so, it is the highest interest of tho State to retain one of bis experience and trustworthiness. Why Not Tax Cotton? The New York Evening Post has a con vincing article in favor of the amendment of Mr. Kellogg, of Illinois, (voted down in the House) to the tax bill, laying a tax of three cents per pound upon cotton. "It is," says the Post, "a tax which will be easily collected; against the justice of which no one can bring good reasons; which will cause the very class who brought on the war to pay a share of its expenses.— We are informed that a tax of one cent per pound on the cotton crop will produce eighteen millions of dollars; three cents a pound would yield us fifty-four millions. The cotton planters cannot complain, be cause one of the first acts was to lay an ex port duty on cotton; the tobacco planters of the border slaves States will complain if cotton is not taxed, when their staple is to be very heavily taxed, and when, too, New Series—Vol. XVI, No. 28 tobacco is by no means a monopoly, as cot ton is. And the farmers of the Northwest, whose sons have fought so bravely in this war, will not be cooteuted to pay taxes on almost every product of their land, and let the great product of the South go-clear.— The fear expressed by Mr. Morrill, that if we lay a tax on cotton other countries will at once undersell our planters, is ground less. llow well the planters can bear a tax of lour or live cents per pound, even if they were to get ouly the usual prices lor the staple, will appear from the following facts: It is established that an average year's cotton costs the planter, to raise, not more than six cents per pouud. Planters and others who have carefully examined this question assert that, with good new lands at twenty dollars per acre, and slaves, taking the run of the plantation, of both sexes, between the ages of iburteen and sixty, at a:i average of eight hundred dob lars, if the planter can be assured of six cents per pound for his cotton he will make a greater profit on his crop than is yielded by any of the great agricultural products in any parts of the country. In a lecture on cotton, delivered at Liverpool last Sep tember, by Mr. Beazlcy, a well known cot ton spinner aud member of Parliament, he stated that one of the largest planters in Louisiana had told him that he could grow cotton profitably at six cents per pound; and no well informed southern man will deny that cotton sold at six cents on too plantation is a more remunerative crop than either sugar, rice, hemp, or corn. But if we look at the prices which have ruled in Liverpool for the middling grades of New Orleans cottons we shall find the average in 1854 eleven cents, in 1855 twelve cents, in 1850 twelve and three quarter cents, in 1857 sixteen cents, in 1858 fourteen cents, in 1859 fourteen and a half cents, in 1800 fourteen cents." Our Financial Condition. Not the least surprising feature in pub lic affairs is that with pretty brisk impor tations, money is down to four or five per cent in New \ ork, in fact, begging for profitable employment, and United States six per cent bonds are above par. They crossed the meridian more than a week ago amid the cheers of the Hoard of .Brokers. \\ hat will Mrs. Grundy of the London Times say of the fact that at a time when, according to the rule in the old world, wo ought to have been paying three per cent, a month for money, and been uuable to get it at that ? This rise in value is, of course says tho New \ork Commercial, mainly due to po litical eveuts. All doubts as to the per manency of the Union are now removed j and the people have the utmost confidence in the ability and good faith of the Gener al Government to pay its citizens the loans that it has been contracting. Everybody, indeed, is interested in preserving the na tional honor, since failure to fulfil its obli gations would entail pecuniary losses prob ably crjual to the entire national debt. We arc aware that such a sudden infla tion may be attended with danger in lead ing many to rush into unwise speculations at a moment when funds appear to be so abundant. The possibility of this should never be lost sight of for an hour Still, as our financial calamities visited us so exten sively about the outbreak of the war, it is reasonable to hope that with its termination the shock will not be so severe as it was twelve or eighteen months ago. But is it not marvelous that the money market should be in such a condition now ? What other nation can produce such a rec ord of improvotoenjt in its finances during a period of active hostilities ?
