Circumstantial Evidence Joe Brace was a farmer's son in the town of IV—, and by his tricks and games and gild pranks,,caused his watchful "parents" no little trouble sometimes. It happened on one occasion that Master Joe was caught in some misdemeanor, and as a punishment for the same, had been compelled to hoe-in the corn field until such time as the said "parent" should judge proper that he should be re leased. Joe, like a dutiful son, took his hoe, and straightway commenced sad havoc among the weeds which obstructed the corn.• - Dinner time came and-passed by, and still no call fur Joe, Atrha began to think his pun ishment was "greater than he could, bear," but still' he toiled, expecting every moment to hear the summons which would release him for a time at least, from his task. But there was no such good luck, fur him. -.The old man determined that he should "sweat it out," - as he termed it ; stretched him, on the lounge in the*ack room; was soon fast asleep; Joe labored faithfully - till nearly three O'clock when hunger getting the better of duty, he resolved to "stay his stomach!' at all hazard's. So dropping his -hoe he steered cautiously to- ward the house, and entering the back door; succeeded in reaching the pantry without de tection, the old 'mart being asleep, and the other portion of Welke - Us - 091d being engaged with company in ilie-front.p.trt of the house, Who had arrived a feve :minutes before... On entering -commenced an - attackon 0. mince pie that;had ,been set on-the window to cool, being just out of ,the oven. When he had about half demolished the pie, and was: thinking - of some means to t.es cape detection, his meditations were disturbed by something coming in con tact wi th hislimbs. On looking down he:. saw the favorite pussy, who had stolen in at the door, and was rub bing herself and purring £l3 if expressing en tire satisfaction at the proceeding. . On per ceiving her, he thought of a plan -which he immediately put into- execution. Grasping her fore legs be, dabbled them about in the remaining part of .the pie, and placing her on the-shelf,Jeft the pantry,•the:cat jumped on the floor, , and• following him, leaving her tracks of course, both on the shelf and on-the floor. Joe now- made by haste fur the field, refreshed by his "bite" and was soon diligently at work. • lie had been hoeing but a short time, when hearing a noise in the-rear; he looked up and saw the old man coMingwith Tabby under one-arm and his gun over his- shoulderl -Neither spoke,, the old man paSsing by, and -proceeded- behind a knoll which hid him from joe'S view:- •r;'” • Jonerleaned on his hoe for a!

A 'child cannot understand you, you think ; spoak.-_.toll of the holy things of your religion; of your grief for theloss of a friend, - of your, love for soine_one you fear -will not love in return ; it will take, it is true, no measure or sounding of your thought.; it will not judge how_ much you should believe whether,your grief- is rational in. proportion to your loss- 7 whether you aro worthy or fit to, attract the love which you• seek—but, its whole soul will incline to yours, and en graft itself, as it were, on the feeling for the hour. WY- There is only one thing which we are ever willing to give to others at the very time we need it ourselves—advice. 1:••••••• These are memorable' words used by the hero of the, battle of Bridgewater,,when asked by his commanding officer if he could take the British cannon which Were mowing down the Artierican soldiers by battalions.

It is'the most, magical, the most powerful, all-controlling and irresistible.

By it mountains are pulled down, or tunnels cut through them ;, roads are made through the pathless sea, and the'.lightning becomes an agent of the liuman will.

But they have got upon their legs again, because they never got discour aged. Having more ta work for, they resolved to work the harder. They learned to turn their adversities to good account; to coin 'their misfortunes into gold. It has been said that all young Men have to be ruined Once, in - order to know how. to live—especially if they commence rich and prosperously. Men do not grow robust on sugar, candies. They do not become giants in a hot bouse. In order to become men they must rough it, and the sooner they begin the better.

Squaring him self and stretching out his legs, he began:— There . was once a little, slim-built fellow, rich as'aJe*, - and independent as . the'devil, tiding alOng a highway; in the State 'of Geor gia,'when he overtook A, man driving a driiVe of hog's by the help of a' big, raw-bone, six.- feet-two 'specimen of humanity. , Stopping the last'itmed indiVidUal, he accosted him— • "I- say, are' these yoni 'hogs ?"

Six-fooier peeled, went - in*. came out first . . • best. • The next night, at'another hotel, the same scene was re-anactod ; Gardner getting into a row with the biggest man in the place, and six-footer doing the fighting.' At last on the third day, they, came to a ferry, kept by a huge double-fisted' man who had never been licked in his life. Whilst crossing the.river, Gardner, as usual, began to find fault and " blow:" The- ferryman naturally got mad, threw things around kind o' loose, and then' told them his opinion of theiir kind.' Gardner then turned to his friend "from the shoulder," and gently broke the intelligence to him, " that h was sorry, but that it was absolutely necessary to thrash that ferryman." Six-footer nodded his head but said nothing. It was plainly to be seen, that he did not relish the job, by the way he HUNTINGDON, PA., AUGUST 3, 1859, Try.". Inclined to be Quarrelsome -1 2 ,E RSEVERE.- shrugged his shoulders, but there Was no help for it. So when they reached the shore, both stripped, and at it they-went. Up and down the bank, over the sand, into the water they fought, scratched, gouged, bit and rolled, till at the end of an hour the ferryman caved. Six-footer was triumphant, but it had been tough work. Going up to his employer, he scratched his head for a moment, and then broke forth : "Look here, Mr. Gardner, your salary sets mighty well, but—l'm—of the opinion—that you are inclined to be quarrelsome. Here I've only been with you three days, and I've licked the three biggest men.in the country. I think this firmlad' better dissolve, for you see, Mr. Gardner, I'm afraid you're inclined to be quarrelsome, and I reckon I'll draw." A gentleman who was riding in the cars, noticed a bright little, fellow, between five and six years of age, sitting with his father and mother, and' engaged in the attempt to unloose the knot of the String that bound small parcel. The knot bad become well compacted, and the child's tiny - fingers seemed to make no impression thereon. The patient earnestness of the little felloW was contrasted with the apparent indifference of his - parents, who looked on, but made no at tempt to assist him. At last the gentleman, whose sympathies with children were warm, could bear the sight no longer ; so, partly to help the child, and partly to rebuke the pa rents, he took out-his knife and handing it to the boy, said Here, my little fellow, try the virtue of a sharp blade. You can "not untie the knot!" Something to his surprise, the knife was not taken ; but instead, the child answered with a smile— ' " Please, sir, father don't allow me to say I can't ; I belong to the ' Try Company.'" "Indeed l" said the gentleman, as he drew back his hand. "I never heard of that com pany before." " Oh, I've always belonged to it. Have I not, father ?" and the child turned, with an expression of loving confidence in his face, to wards his father. "Ite's a worthy member of that excellent association, sir," remarked the father, now speaking to the gentleman, and smiling in a pleasant way. . - " A. 13, I understand you !" Light was breaking in upon his mind. " This is a part of yOur - discipline. You never permit your little boy to say I can't." "But, instead, Ell try, sir." "Excellent," said the gentleman. " Ex cellent 1-• Here is the way that men are made. It is•the everlasting 1 can't, that is dwarfing the energies of thousands upon thousands all o'er the land. A feeble effort is made to overcome some difficulty, and then the arms fall wearily, and the task is abandoned." " And who is most to blame for this ?" was inquired, "Parents," was the unhesitating reply.— "Parents who failto 'cultivate patience and perseverance in their children. • Parents who carry them when they should let them walk, even though the feet may be weary. I see it all • as Clear as light, and see my own fault at the mule time. I cut the knot of difficulty for my children every day, instead of requir ing them to loosen it themselves. But, sir, they shall join the Try Company' after this. ' have no' more knot cutting in my house." . • - How is it with you, reader, child or man ? Are you a member of the " Try Company ?" If not, andyowhave any ambition to be sor.ne thing more than a drone in the hive, join it at once ; and from this time forth never let the words " I can't" find a place on your lips. • A Modest Young" Man. We love a modest, 'unassuming young man, wherever we find him`—in the counting room or law office—at the bellows or crank--L-at the roll-stand or type case—on a clam-bank or on the pulpit. Among a world of brass and bold impudence, he stands forth an honor to himself; showing to• others that he at least has had a good bringing up, and knows what belongs to good manners. Ask him a ques tion, and he will not look cross enough'to bite you. If.you are looking for anything, he will take pains to find it for you if he can. When in company with others, he does not usurp all the conversation", and endeavor to call the attention of others tolimself, by boli terous language.' He listens attentively to his seniors,'and modestly advances his opin ions. We love such a man—we do sincerely -and his company we highly prize. 'lf he meets' you in the street, he pleasantly bows, and bids you good morning. You do not find him standing at the corners, using profane words, or see him standing at the entrance of churches on the Sabbath. He quietly.enters his pow and takes his seat without a flourish. He goes to hear, not merely to see. Such young men there are in - the country and in the . city. We often see them. You will find them in some Of . your printing offices, work shops, and other places, where to earn' one's living is honorable. When they come upon the stage of active life, they must succeed— it cannot be otherwise. We would give more fora mcidest, unassuming man, for all the practical business of life, than for a score of brassy, impudent rascals, who are not worth the bread they -keep from moulding. PEACE. —Peace is better than joy. Joy is na an uneasy guest, and always on tiptoe depart. It tires and wears us out, and keeps us ever fearing that the next moment it will be gone. Peace is not' so—it comes more quietly, it stays more contentedly and it never exhausts our strength nor gives us one anxious fore casting thought. Therefore let us pray for peace. ,•It is the gift of God—promised to all his children ; and if we have it in our hearts we shall not pine for joy, though its bright wings never touch us while we tarry in the world, .

Migtdialltous cit 0115. What has John C. Breckinridge Done? For more than two years it has been re peatedly and strikingly- made manifest that the second officer in the Government of this Republic has labored under the gayest dis pleasure of the first. Not uring to inquire into the secrets behind the scenes on the po litical stage at 'Washington, we have observed the progress of this feeling as it has been pub licly demonstrated, and therefore speak only from such facts as are patent and probable. It is alleged; by those who ought to know, that, from the moment the ballot-box spoke a favorable verdict for James Buchanan and John C. Breckinridge, the first began to dis 7 trust and to depreciate the second ; and, we believe, no attempt has been made to conceal the manner in which the President excluded the Vice President from his councils in the construction of his Cabinet. Indeed, from the inauguration to the present day a steady attempt seems to have been made to ignore Mr. Breckinridge, to make him a voiceless figure-head in the Senate, and to class him among the vast and uninfiuential masses des ignated by the generic term of "outsiders."— The general and generous public will inquire, on reviewing these notorious aspects of past politics, what has Mr. Breckinridge done to merit this treatment at the hands of an Ad ministration of which, -by lav7 and by coin.= tesy, by precedent and by practice, by uni versal expectation and unchallenged capacity, and by the decree of the ballot-box, he is, or ought to be, an important member ? Claim ing to stand in no relation to this gentleman that entitles us to speak of him by authority, and uttering our - independent opinion only an independent journalist, it is the sim ple truth to say that his character and his attributes contributed greatly to the tri umph • of the Democratic party in 185 G.— There was, and there is, something extreme ly fascinating in his history and his manners. Selected as a candidate when still a very young man, (Mr. Breckinridge will only be thirty-nine .on the 16th of January, 1860,) there was that in his years, in his appearance in his singular intellectual gifts, in his manly deportment, and in his unselfish patriotism, that made him an object of rare interest to all parties, and especially to. the youth of America—all combined superinducing such a revolution in the State of Kentucky as led to its conquest from the hands of those who had held it for nearly thirty long years, and united it closely to the Democratic column.— In the nation at large he was hardly less a favorite. Thousands will recall, during all their lives, the impression he made upon the people of Pennsylvania when, in 1856, he came among us to raise his voice for the Democratic party. There was, therefore, every motive, alike of good breeding and of self-interest ; to impel him to the kindest re lations with the President, and to awaken the kindest reciprocity of this sentiment on the part of the latter. What has he done, then, to have- lost the confidence of the highest offi cer of the Republic—first exhibited by: an apparently inexorable determination to ig nore him wholly in the settlement of the pol icy and the distribution of the patronage of the Administration ;.n.iad, secondly, - by cer tain emphatic explosions of recent hostility in the recognised organs of the Administra tion ? If the answer is plain to this question, as it is, it is'painful and mortifying to state it. Mr. Breckinridge has refused to be a par ty to the merciless proscription of the President and his Cabinet upon such Democrats as felt bound in, honor to oppoSe a portion, of the Administration. programme. While yielding as Southern men a reluctant support to the Lecompton policy, his friends. and himself have not stimulated the purposes of the offi cers of the Government in ostracising all Democrats •Who took the other side of the question. When in 1858 he saw the great struggle going on in Illinois between the hosts of the Democratic party, led by Stephen A.. Douglas, and the legions of the Opposition led by Mr. Lincoln, (the exponent of.doctrines against which the• Democratic party every where, includinglhe Administration, itself was solemnly committed,) he did not restrain the expression'of his sympathy' with his political friends, and hisprefereuce for the Demberatie leader in that' great battle.. This was'a cap ital offence. It fell upon the despotic few at Washington who had doomed the gallant Douglas to an ignominious political death, like an unexpected warning; and although it aroused an answering thrill in the Democrat ic ranks everywhere, it also infused new vi tality into the bitter hatred which has mark ed the course of the President in his relations to the Vice President, before - and since - the 4th of March, 1857. But the offending of the Vice President-against the puissant pow= ers at the seat of the Federal Government did not halt with this., When the odious dogma of Congressional protection- to slavery in the Territories-was enunciated by these powers— embodied as it was in,',and answering as it did to the demand - of the extreme South, for a slave code in those Territories—the Vice President saw his duty in opposing it, and did so like a patriot. This was done, be . it observed, not because of any disnositipn to disturb his relations with the Chief of the Ad ministration, but on the ground of devotion to constitutional principles ; to save Democra cy of the Union from destruction, and to pre vent his own 'State from falling back into the hands of those from whom he had mainly as sisted to rescue it. And We believe .the re sult Will prove that this wise and precaution ary-measure will consolidate Kentucky still more may into a Democratic State. . It be that Mr. Breckinridge has fallen into disrepute at Washington because his name has been mentioned in many quarters in connection with the Presidency itself. No man - regards an aspirant to this high office with more jealousy than the present occupant of it.. He has come to regard it as his fief, as an estate held almost as' the ancient barons held their estates, by the strong hand. No matter who may raise his eyes to this tempt ing prize, the moment he does so he is forever shut out from the confidence of James Bu chanan. Accordingly, we hav,e seen, and Editor and Proprietor. NO. 6. only within a few days past, a deliberate at tempt, (no matter how subsequently recalled) which was evidently an authorized attempt; anti in harmonious consistency with the en tire course of the President himself, to ex cornmuniente all the principal candidates for the Presidency named in connection with the Charleston Convention. That the Adminis: tration shoUld desire to put out of the way such rebels as Douglas and Wise was an ex pected act of official infatuation ; but that they should set on their organs to defame, and denounce Mr. Breckinridge, however accus tomed. the public mind has been rendered to their hallucinations, was an achievement singularly calculated to startle the Demo cratic party from its centre to its extremi: ties. We think we have now explained why Mr. Breckinridge has been included in the .cata logue of malefactors, and why his head is to be demanded as a sacrificial peace offering to that Executive executioner who seems to have resolved to close his career by destroying the great party which elected him to the high office he now occupies. In the French Revolution, when great men were suspected of want of fealty to the des pots who temporarily ruled France in a , sea of blood, the blow fell, in many instances, with unexpected suddenness. There were the accusation, the trial, and the death, fol lowing each other with remoreless rapidity. Our Directory—our Danton, our Ararat, and Couthan—though unable to take human life, glory in a sort of moral and political assas sination, which frequently recalls their re semblance to their prototypes during the Reign of Terror. They have a black list crowded'with the white and shining names of the Republic, and one after the other they have carried, or attempted to carry, the most eminent Democrats to the reeking guillotine which they, have I erected. There is not a State in the Union in which they have not sought to strike down the highest and purest of our champions. No reputation, however venerated, no political fidelity, however un stained and unbroken, has stayed their hands. Bancroft in the East, Soule in the South, Douglas in the West, and Packer in the middle of the Union, are but the types of the men who have fallen under their excep tionless displeasure. It was natural that their last act should. be to venture a rush upon the young and gifted gentleman who was chosen Vice President of the United States by the' suffrages of the Democratic party. It only required this to complete their claim upon the detestation of their court try.— The Pre:ss. Burning Fluid A correspondent of the Evening Bullitin, in entering a protest against the use of Burn ing Fluid remarks that "there is scarcely a day passes but there is a record of some dis tressing case in which the sufferer, after en during untold agonies, dies a victim to this diabolical invention ; and yet because, like the burning or blowing up of a steamboat or a great railroad accident, great numbers of human beings are not killed at once, the poor victims to the destructive afrericy of Camphene, &c., perish one by one, and their distressing deaths cause but a momentary sensation, and are soon forgotten except by those who are bereaved. Camphene, Burning Fluid, and such like explosive fluids are usually made with a mixture of Alcohol and highly rectified Sprits of Turpentine, two of the most inflam mable'fluids known, neither of which are safe near a flame in the hands of the most careful ; and yet we find a compound of these most dan gerous articles in the hands often of ignorant persons and even young children. The liquid being clear,-the over nice seem of on that account to hazard the lives of themselves their children, and their property in using an article actually more dangerous to handle than gun-powder, for that article subtle va por that may be stealing through the air and explode on meetingn spark of fire, but fire must be 'actually applied to it to make it ex plode. The-invisible vapor of Camphene or burning fluid may' xplode . by coming in con tact with the flame of a lamp or.even of the red 'hot surface of a stove. The effect is like that of carrying a light in a room where there has been a leak from the ga.S . pipes. The flame is instantly communicated through the air to the vessel containing , the fluid, and this bursting, everything around is enveloped in fire. Some persons wonder why the frail glass lamps should burst—this may . occur easily from' the nature of Camphene, which are highly expansive fluids, and when a lamp is filled and brought in a warm room. if the glass is not very strong, is likely to burst it—for instance a barrel ocspirits of turpentine, wanting a gallon of being full, will, if placed in sun or a warm room," over flow the bung hole, this is the expansion paus ed by the heat, and it is so in a lamp or bot tle. The bulk of a glass lamp is often blown extremely thin, and yields to this expansion caused by the heat, and it is so.in a lamp or in a bottle. The bulb of a gla.sg lamp is of-' ten blown extremely thin, and yields to this expansion, and the Camphene catching fire from the burning wick, scatters destruction and even death around on hapless children and others exposed to its direful effec4, — I would rather have gun-powder in tri,t•dwel ling than these burning fluids, and it is strange that those who know their character should run the risk of using articles so dangerous to life and property, suffering them to be used daily by those who al're totally unconscious of their qualities." SEAsox..s.r.LE.—The use of, fruit is not un derstood by many of our people. Some have great prejudices against it during the sum mer and 'autumnal months ; others observe no_ rule in regard to the time of eating it, or the quantity which may be taken, with safety.— The prejudice of the former most likely grow out of the neglect of ordinary prudence by , those who usnit without any regard to time, quantity or state. Impropriety used or eaten, when in an, unfit state, it- is productive of many diseases peculiar to the summer months, • but undoubtedly a proper use is conducive to health and preventive of disease. No gener al rule can be given for the eating of fruit—. except that it should always be of a sound, and wholesome quality: Every person must judge of the quantity and the kind of fruit: and vegetables best suited. to their constitu tions. "What is one man's meat is another's', poison." Three or four large apples would induce cholera morbus in some, while, they would be beneficial to others. Experience is always the best guide—you can .take with safety everything agreeable to the syStem, as well in the dog days as in mid winter. The great secret is to-know when to stop. .Exces sive eating—stuffing,-overloadiug the stomach ' - -brings on disease and often produces death.
