The Spirit of Patience.
The
.f pi ri t of patience is not easily
acquired by young persons; it is so di
rectly opposed to their natural temper
ament, Ardent, impetuous, and self.
willed, they do not like to wait for the
fulfillment of their slightest wish; and
are irritable and diScontented, if cir
cumstances disarrange their plans and
disappoint their expectations. There
is something very unattractive to them
in the idea of patience. It is too sober
and old-fashioned to suit their glow
ing imaginations; and it seems to be
associated in their minds with a defi
ciency of feeling, if not of intellect.—
But this is a mistake, and should be
thoughtfully examined; for We may
rest assured, that unless we cultivate
tho spirit of patience, we shall not
make much progress, either in mental
attainments or in practical religion.—
An impatient spirit loses that calm
self possession which is so requisite in
attempts at self-improvement, and
makes but slow advances in a right
course. Some young persons aro re
ally anxious to have good principles
and to form good habits; and if what
they aim at could be achieved by ono
or two feeble efforts, or could be secu
red to them at the expiration of a day
or a week, they might gain their ob
ject; but as this is not the case, they
slacken their efforts rather than wait
for success. But this is unreasonable
and unwise. Does the husbandman
expect to reap his harvest immediately
after ho has sown his grain in the field?
Does the gardener imagine that the
seed which ho plants in the earth will
grow up at once into a beautiful flow
er? No; the children of this world
are wise in their generation, and they
wait with patience for the fruit of
their labors.
Perhaps, young reader, you sot out
in the narrow path which leads to
eternal life with bright hopes and ear
nest resolutions. You wished to ful
fill God's precepts; you intended to.do
so; and you pictured to yourself the
rapid progress which you would make
in the way of holiness. But you found
the road was longer and moro rugged
than you understood it to be. The
prize which you sought was still out
of sight, and you either gave up its
pursuit, or went on wearily and angri
ly because it was withhold. You did
run well; what hindered you ? Im
, patience. Impatience for a promised
blessing implies distrust in God. You
doubt whether God will over answer
-your prayer, unless he does so imme
diately. You cannot trust his simple
word. Now the blessing you asked
for may have been reserved for a. ti me,
as a test of your faith. How has it
borne the trial ? Ah, you must per
ceive at once how weak your faith is;
how imperfect is the confidence which
you placo in God. Should not your
earnest petition be, "Lord, increase my
faith ?"
Perhaps, some young persons are
glancing over this who are prevented
by illness, or general delicacy of
health, from mingling in the busy
scenes and engaging in the active du
ties of life. Perhaps others meet with
daily Unkindness and ridicule from re
latives or others; or they have to toil
with wearied.frareeS. and itching hearts
for tho bread that perishoth, and are
compelled to boar mauy bitter and
painful privations. It seems cold and
unfeeling, when the heart is depressed
by wow, and the fairest bopos have
been crushed by disappointments, to
bid the youthful mourner remember
that he is to be 'patient in tribulation.'
But it is in truth, a proof of our sym
pathy : for we speak to him of tho on•
ly plan which can strengthen him for
the endurance of his trials, We can
not remove-those trials; but we may
help to lighten them, by encouraging
him ; to Nor them With patienee and
resignation. But is it possible to, feel

Do not murmur, then, dear young

4 .\lY. OR MY IitOTLIEIC-A very talen
ted young man made the acquaint
ance of a Quaker gentleman and his
wife. The Quaker had a tine daugh
ter and also a library, the books from
which ho freely loaned to the young
man, who generally came in the-even
ing to return them, when he supposed
the daughter would be at home. She
often exchanged the book for him, and
bad a friendly chat with him. One
evening he came as usual, and the
young lady met him at the door. She
was dressed to go out, and said :
'Who would you like to .see—mo or
my mothor. I was about to call on a
friend. If my mothor will :Itnswer
your purpose, please walk into the
drawing room; but if you desire my
company, I will postpone my visit to
another time.'
The young man hesitated and stain.
mond, not wish to—to detain
you from your engagement; but if
you had not been going out I would
have enjoyed your society.'
'All right,' she rejoined, and accord
ingly took off her bonnet, and they
passed a very pleasant evening.
The question, 'who do you prefer
to see, me or my mother ?' settled the
matter. The result was he soon pro•

Camp near Culpepper, Co D 149th P. V.
FRIEND LEWIS ;—With a moments
leisure time, and I again : visit the
Printer's sanctum. • My visitations
have been quite frequent and I, will
try and make thorn as interesting as
possible to the readers of your patri
otic Journal. There is a question of a
good deal of interest in dispute iu the
regiment, and mostly in every regi
meat whore there are drafted men.
The decision made by the judiciary of
the United States, relative to the con
scription act, instituted the opinion
that it was unconstitutional. The re
vision of the act, left it in a worse
shape than ever; so the opinion of
Nimrod may decide the question in
dispute.. The act . definitely states
that the term of service is for three
years; now, the only way to make this
valid, (in reference to the act) is to
discharge the drafted men at the end
of nine months, leaving them have
three months of furlough, and then at
the expiration of the throe months,
let the men thus discharged, report, at
the former place of rendezvous, and
enter the service for three years again,
deducting nine months from-that term.
Thus they would serve 27 months of
the three years, and the remaining 9
months would be spent at home. I
don't know whether your other corre
spondents aro of the same opinion or
not. Some conclude that the present ,
war is a white man's, and do not con
sider it proper or judicious to employ
men of color to assist in crushing out
the conspirators. _ Slavery was , the
predominant cause of the war; it cer
tainly is but just, to save the white
man's life when a contraband can do
it, for it has been proven that some of
them make very good soldiers. Ido
not believe that they ere entitled to
equal rights with the white race, we
must make this distinction. They do
not move in the same sphere, but let
thorn throw in their mite fori the sub
jugation of a power that strikes so
deeply at our interests and hopes. The
Huntingdon county boys were rejoiced
in hearing the results of your borough
election, for it is really cheering to
know that there is patriotism at home
guarding our rear, while we contend
with the enemy in the front. I am
done for this time, but when I come
again I may talk a little longer,
Yours, &c.,
Ximitob.
Camp near Annapolis, Md. t,
April 13th, 1804'.
Mu. Lnwts :—Wien I left the plea:-
ant valley where I have spen't so many
happy days, I consented to give some
of your readers a description of camp
life; and, also some account of the tra
vels of the 'Ninth army Corp's!
A. few weeks have rollod round Since
I parted from home, with its pleasing
associations, and now memory is pre!:
sing the clahns_of friendship upon mo
and I hasten to my task.
First, I may say that the company
which I have the honor to belong, is
composed of mon from Stone Valley
in our county, and Kishacoquillas,
and Mifflin. They aro all from the
rural working population, and a noble
sot of fellows. I remember with what
pride and delight I first witnessed
them go through the 'Manual of
Arms'—their pieces as they glided
from a 'shoulder' to a 'charge,' seem
ed to bo almost endowed with life;
and my thoughts were transported
back to those fiery ordeals through
which they have passed—South Moun
tain, Antiotam, Jackson and Fort
Saunders—'brave boys are they,'—
forming at once a splendid nucleus ar
ound which the new recruits may ral
ly and imitate. It is but just for me,
to add that the officers, both commis
sioned and noncommissioned, aro
gentlemen in every sense of the word,
affording the new men 'every oppor
tunity to advance themselves in the
profession of arms.
Gen. Burnside arrived here last
Saturday, and was gladly received.
Ho is a fine looking man—every inch
a soldier; I could have singled him
out among ton thousand. You should
have hoard the shouts that rent the
air as ho rode froth camp to camp.
How proudly his noble steed danced
up 'to the cheering, as if conscious of
the welcome that his master received.
To-day we were reviewed by Lieut.
Gen. Grant, who is a man of very
modest appearance; so, that you seem
hardly to realize. that the conqueror
of the South-west, is before you. He
was accompanied by Gen. Burnside
and other officers, whose names I do
not know. The boys were told to
cheer for Gen. Grant, which they did
right well; but they do not want any
one to tell them to cheer 'old Burney;'
whenever he makes his appearance is
the signal. It is evident to the most
casual Observer, that the commander
of the Ninth army Corps, has a deep
hold on the-affections of his men.
Regiments aro pouring in every day
and everything wears a lively aspect;
which is in pleasing contrast with the
stormy times we have endured. The
visit of the commander-in-chief, and
the arrival of Gen. Burnside,.. seem to
indicate that the expedition will move
shortly somewhere. It in supposed

A person who is faithless to his apoint

show, beyond a doubt, that it is the
very worst system of policy that a.
farmer can praotice, to keep his c6ws
on such a stinted supply of , food that
they will inevitably becomo poor and
emaciated, or, to keep thorn on poor
food or such fodder as will afford vary
little milk or very little nourishment
to the animal.
When cows have been kept on little
food until they show every rib in their
bodies, and their necks have fallen
downward, liko the nook of an Asiatic
dromodary,. - they cannot be profitable
'to-their :ownors.. And. why ? : Because
a poor cow will not give as rich_milk,
nor as much.of it, as - the , same ccetv
would give wore she tolerably fat.—
Now, if the milk be poor, of courso a
much larger quantity of it will be re
quired to Make a pound of butter or a
pound of cheese. •And, if a cow be
poor, a largo proportion of the mate
rial that would go to make rich cream,
were the cow fleshy, is secreted to nou
rish her animal sylitedf. For the rea
son, when we feed poor cows food that
had an Anode:nee of Cream producing,
or butter forming, material in it, we
often wonder why it is that the milk
is so poor—'-whito used thin--when it
ought to be' thick, and yelloW as gold.
On the other band, When eve feed
poor fodder to cows that are — in good
condition, the milk will be poor, be-•
cause so much of the Material that
would go to make milk, is secreted to
nourish the system before it reaches
the lacteal glands.
Now, then, suppose a cow loses, du
ring the foddering season, only one
hundred pounds of flesh and fat. Very
many cows lose more than two bun=
dred pounds during that time. Every
pound of flesh and fat that is lost is
equal to one pound of butter or two of
the best cheese. And, if a cow is in
good healthy condition—not as fat as
fat beef—and loses ono hundred lbs of
fat, as soon as she receives a good
supply of food, sho will begin to in
creaso in flesh and fat. Therefore,
her system will take up cream-produ
cing material enough, in replacing the
100 pounds which she lost, to have
made 100 pounds of good butter or
two hundred or more pounds of good
cheese.
There ha no evading this logic, and
there is no dodging these conclusions.
Common sense, philosophy, and expe
rience, all will substantiate these con
siderations.
How much then is 100 pounds of
butter worth ? Lot every father an-.
ewer for himself.. And, when he re
flects on this subject, lot him reinotn
her this is a vary easy matter for a
cow to lose one or more pounds' of
flesh daily, which is worth, in cash,
more than one pound'ofbutter.

Bpfrit of-Disooveq.
As I was oncelooking upon, the sad
spectacle of a building ,in names, my
attention was attracted to. a rainbow
formed upon the spray froin the en
gines. Like an angel among harpies,
.the symbol of hope appeared among
the ravages of fire, adding an. element
of quiet beauty to the scene of wild
confusion. It was nothing to the rain
bow, that tumult and destruction ra
ged around. No earthly conflict could
harm the daughter of the sun. True
to her nature, sherecognized her home
among the falling drops, and dwelt
there as peacefully as in her- birth
place in the sky. Where daylight res
ted on glittering spray, there - was her
shining plaeo. Other eyes than mine
were fixed upon the bright phenome
non, and other emotions than more
admiration . were aroused by it. One
man at least, was filled with wonder
at the sight; he expressed his surprise
in strong language, and wanted to
know whet the cause of so singular an
appearance could be. The man' had
often seen the rainbow in the sky bea
ming out from its dark cloudy back
ground, but be had not known the.
mason of its clear shining after rain.
To soothe cloud-adorning radiance in
mid-air, almost within: his reach, was
now and strange. He had been con
tent with the knowledge that came
through his souses; and had not — been
accustomed to inquire into the causes
and relations. of facts, Yet the" inher
ent desire-for truth bad survived years
of-ignorance,. and needed only to be
roused into action.
The spirit of discovery, is an imper
taut element of huinan nature, and the
source of- pure aneelevated pleasure.
It shows itself in children at • their
sports, and makes their faces to shine
with an animation nobler than . rdere
animal spirits. The desire to 'tee in
to things,' and know all that , can he
known about them, is ono of the ear
lioirevidencoe ofnie4l-41ovelopment.
If our systems of education are suc
cessful, they must, be so executed as to
cultivate this disposition. It is not
enough that lessons ha learned and re
cited. The subjects treated of in the
lessons, should be the themes- of inde
pendent investigation by the scholars.
A few examples will shew my mean
ing In the regular geography lesson
the oceans are, treated of. Let the
pupils 6e requested to bring to class
next day, in connection with the..les
son; any facts that they can - discover
respecting the oceans, the meaning of
their names, their extent, and their
Varlets benefits to man. • When the
pdpils have presented their discover
ies, the teacher day derroct
. any false
statements, add to the collection of
facts, and give any information upon
the subject that may occur to him. A
- ebort colloquy of this kind will give
the pupils 'a better knoWledge of the
subject and more interest in it than
could have been gained by any am
ount of dull reciting. Interesting his
toricalinoidents may be so connected
with the study of geography, as may
Make it delightful. to the learners. ,If
it be stated in the lesson . that the el
dest son of the English monarch is
called `l4ince of tales,' let the "class
be requested to find. when and in what
circumstances ibis title was first
en. The story is full of' interest,. In
Mathematical studies, the reasoning
powers may be employed in 'eXplain
ing the rules—or, better still, in ma
king rules—and the power of djscov,
oring, in seeking various methods, of
solving problems. Every study fur
nishes abundant themes of thought,
and the teacher who is quOified and
interested can use them to excellent
advantage.
By such a course of training two im
portant results are gained: Ifit. The
things learned are understood . and fix
ed in the mind. Combined facts and
priiiciPles are associated in tee pupil's
thoughts. 2. Habits of intketigation
and reasoning are formed : ffle effect
of such instruction is to ma,4o intelli
gent, thoughtful ,seholars who will
study the laws that gOveri the 'uni
verse, and apply them to useful ends.
And while the ultitnate: benefits are so
great, the proximate results. le fall of
encouragement. Study bosoms a
delight. The learner is not doomed
to a dull routine of -lif6legs recitation.
The infinite field of truth spreads all
about him, iridescent with leaves and
blossoms, and rosy-petaled flowers.
Beneath itssurface lie treasures for
all who will seek them : No diligent
explorer will search in vain: It the
,

minds into' this intellectual treasure
