The Annual Resurrection. —As tho day dins into night, so doth the summer into winter. The sap is said to descend into the root, and thpre it Uus burled In the ground. The earth is covered with snow or crusted with frost, and becomes a general sepulchre; when spring appears, oil begin to flee; the plants and flowers peep out of (heir grave, revive, grow, and flourish; This is tho annual resurrection. The corn, by which we live, and for want of which we perish by famine, is, notwithstanding, oast upon tho earth, and buried inltho ground with a design that It may corrupt and being corrupted, may revive and multiply,-- Our bodies are fed by this constant experiment, and wo continue this present life by succession of resurrections. Thus ell things ere repaired by corrupting, and preserved by perishing, and revi ved by dying; And can wo think that man; the lord of all these things, which thus die and revive for him, should be detained in death, so as pevet to live again! Is it imaginable that God should thus restore all things to man,and not restore man to himself! If there wore no other consideration, but of the principles of human nature, of the liber, (y and remunorabllity of human actions, and of natural revolutions and resurrections of other crea tures, it were abundantly suflloient to render the resurrection of our bodies highly probable. V ■ How is it to db done!— An Irishman who was very near sighted, about to fight a duel, insisted that he should stand six paces nearer to his anta gonist than the other did to him, end that they were both to fire at the same lime! This beats Sheridan’s telling a fat man who was going to Agbt a sllm ono that tho latter's slim figure ought to be chalked on lhA other's portly neraoni and if the bullet hit him outside the bhalk line It tVas to go for nothing.

SAD CASB^ The Delaware Republican gives the following account,of the trial.and acquittal of Jacob Green, charged with the murder of the seducer of his wife:— Jacob Green was tried on Tuesday last, at N. Castle, for the murder of Abraham Redden. It ] was proved that Green was married about six | years ago, and lived happily with a woman to i whom he was much attached, and that Redden se duced her from her fidelity to him. He -would frequently lake her from her house and keep her J away all night; and there was proof of adulterous intercourse. On Green accusing him of ii, he said “Yea,! have had your wife, and will have.her again whenever 1 like, and if you dqn’t keep quiet, I will blow your liver out." He carried two pis tols loaded for the avowed purpose of shooting Green, and on one occasion assaulted andbeathlm severely. He loaded these pistols with slugs on Saturday, the 20th of July last, telling his own* wife that he intended to.shoot Green, That night he took Green's wife from her house and kept her out all night. Green discovered ihe guilty pair about day break the next morning; went some two or three miles and borrowed a gun; returned and found Redden sitting asleep in a neighboring house, and shot him through the open door., He immediately surrendered himself. After being tried, he told told the story of his wrongs in so affecting a man ner that he drew tears from the.officer and all nres< ent. He wound up by saying— 4v Now, Mr. Hick man, had you been in my place, would you' not have, done as I didV’ To which the officer rell . giously, but feelingly, replied—lf not restrained . by divine grace, 1 think 1 should." Green begged . to see his wife, and she was brought to him. He I put his manacled: arms around her neck, kissed , her, and gave ber his forgiveness; and was taken f off, he said, to die for the love of her. - 5 He was mistaken. The law in Delaware makes It nohlgher offence than a’mlsdemeanor for a bus [ band to kill, a man found in the act of adultery i with his wife, and the Jury considering even that as beyond the guilt of this., defendant, under the i circumstances ot aggravation and outrage present ,ed hy.his eaaerAcquitted'hiiii entirely. . L . f f. discharged from • the dock;, was «f friends, whp . gave three hearty cheers 1 the aired. The guilty wife wn» not there; and . the widow of the deceased contributed, by her tes timony, to the acquittal of the man who slew her i own husband. Tale Bearing.— Never repeal a story unless you are positively curtain that It is.correct, and evOu not then unless something.is to bn gained either of interest to yourself or. for tfia good of the person, concerned., Tattling is a. mean and o wicked practice, and he who indulges in it grows more fond of it in proportion as ho is successful. If you have no good to say of yodf neighbor, never reproach his character by telling that' which is false.. Ho who tells you.(he faults of others, in tends to tell others of your faults; and so tho dish of news is handed from ono to another until the tale becomes erroneous. A story never loses any thing is wisely remarked, but on the contrary gains in proportion as it is repeated by (hose who nave not a very strict regard for the truth. • Truly, “the tongue is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison," Happiness.— Happiness results from the occupation of lime usefully or.agreeably.' When persons arc actively engaged in their several .callings nnd pro fessions, the limo is usefully employed, conducting to respectability,honor or profit—never failing sources of satisfaction. They who have no regular business or profession, resort to the expedient of beguiling their hours by sums pursuit or amusement that shall supply the place of business, Their endeavor Is Ip fill up lime agreeably. Thus tho country gentleman devotes himself to the sports of tho field, making dogs and horses his principal occupation, while town men of fortune fills np his evening hours la frcqueri. Ing theatres, card parlies, routs, and masquerades. Those modes, however, of employing time are by no means iho most eligible; they aro not productive ol that genuine solf.satlsfiiotion. which results from pursuits of a more tranquil description; such as read ing, music, pointing or gardening.
