Scatter ye seeds, and flowers will spring ; Strew them at broadcast o'er hill and glen ; Sow in your garden, and time will bring Bright flowers, with seeds to scatter again. Scatter ye seeds—nor think them lost, Though they fall amid leaves and are buried in earth— Spring will awake them,though heedlessly toss'd, And to beautiful flowers those seeds will give birth. Scatter yc seeds ; tire not but toil; 'Tis the work of life, 'tis the labor of man : In the head, in the heart, and on earth's own soil, Sow, gather, and sow, through life's short span. Scatter ye seeds in the field of mind— Seeds of flowers, with seeds of grain ; In the spring and summer, sweet garlands yc' 11 find, And in autumn ye'll reap rich fruits for your pain Scatter yc seeds in the garden of heart, Seeds of affection, of truth and of love, Cultivate carefully each hidden part, And thy flowers will be seen by angels above. Scatter yc seeds—the seeds of Hope ; Plant in your bosom the Tree of Life— Then the flowers here budding in Heaven shall ope, Arid in Heaven will ripen the fruits of strife. Then scatter yc seeds each passing year ; Sow amid winds and storms of rain— Hope give thee courage, Faith cast out fear, God will requite thee with infinite gain.

When I was young, 1 felt the tide Of aspirations undefiled : But manhood's years have wronged the pride My parents centered in their child.

To the honor, to the eternal honor of the sex, be it stated, that on the part of du ty no sacrifice is to them too high or too & 3 The Ungrateful Son. " The eye tliat mocked at his father, the ravens of the valley shall pick it out," Prov. 30 : 17. This is a terrible denun ciation against ingratitude to parents, and even in the present day is sometimes vir tually fulfilled. Some years ago, an Irish gentleman, who was an extensive contractor on our public works, was reduced to poverty by the profligacy and dishonesty of an un grateful son. The old man lost his wife, and, to fill the cup of his sorrow, he lost his sight. Thus poor, friendless, blind, and forsaken, he found an asylum in the Franklin county alms-house, Pennsylva nia. While an inmate of this refuge for the afflicted, his wicked and ungrateful son traveled that way ; he was informed of his father's situation, and that his parent ! wished to see him ; and although he passed within two hundred yards of the alms house, he refused to stop and see the kind father he had ruined. Now mark the re sult. The verv day he passed the alms house on his way to Gettysburg. in an open carriage, he was overtaken by a storm, and took a severe cold that resulted in the destruction of his eyes. lie lay in Gettysburg in a critical situation until his funds were exhausted, and those who had him in charge look him to the Franklin county alms-house. The very day he was brought in, his father, having died the day before, was carried out. lie was put in the same room, and occupied the same bed, and in a short time followed his neglected and heart-broken father to the judgment seat of Christ. It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of an angrv God. Never attempt to do anything that is not right. Just so sure as von do. you will gel into trouble. Sin always brings sorrow sooner or later. If you even sus pect that anything is wicked, do it not until you are sure your suspicions are groundless. Clothe not thy language either with obscurity or affectation ; in the one thou discovered too much darkness, m the other too much lightness, lie that speaks lrom the understanding to the understand ing is the best intepreter. 3M i£crllaucoiio. A Visit to the Mexican Cathedra). A correspondent of the Washington I nion, writing from the city of Mexico, says : " One day last week I spent a whole morning (six hours) in examining the Ca thedral and its treasures. By special fa vor they showed us everything; among others the custodian, in which the conse crated host is exposed on certain occasions. It cost #200,000, but is worth #500,000 : and you will not wonder at this when 1 inform you that it is full four feet high, made of solid gold, and studded with pre cious stones. The pedestal is a foot and a half square, inlaid with diamonds and rubies. At each corner is the golden fig ure of an angel, exquisitely carved.— Around his waist and neck arc strings of the finest pearls. His wings are inlaid or covered with diamonds, rubies and eme ralds. In his right hand he holds sheaves of wheat, made of yellow topaz ; in his left, bunches of grapps made of amethysts. The shaft is also studded with diamonds j and rubies. The upper part, containing the host, is made to represent the sun, and is a foot and a halt in circumference ; the I rays that emanate on one side are made entirely of diamonds of the first water, be ginning with sonic of large size, and gradually tapering off. The cross that surrounds the tap is also on this side, made lof diamonds, and is superb. On the other : side, both the cross and the rays are of the most beautiful emeralds—perhaps larger ' than the diamonds." 'I bo last accounts from Mr. J. Bayard I aylor, of the New ork Tribune, are to 12th January. At that time he was at Khartoum, the . chief city of Sennaar, and located at the confluence of the white and blue A tic, a bout half way between Cairo and the equator. lie had proved quite popular with the sable governor of the place, in consequence of his being the first American who had ever penetrated so far toward ( cntral Africa, having been presented with a magnificent horse, entertained at a i grand banquet, and honored with a night ly guard around his tent. lie had also been tiie guest of a princess of Sennaar, 1 a daughter of the late monarch. Her ebon royalty had feasted htm and his friends on a sheep roasted whole, and paid them oth er highbred civilities peculiar to the aris tocracy of Ethiopia. Mr. Taylor was un decided whether to return to Cairo, or press forward to the Equator and sources of the Nile. A Catholic Missionary, who was hound to the latter place, wished him to continue the journey in company. His health, he writes, was never better. A Texas paper, in speaking of one of i our presidential aspirants, says that as lie ; has got no morals, he had better go iu for ! the l ice Presidency. I } FRIDAY EVENING, MARCH 26, 18.12. The State of the Country Six months ago, our whole Industrial and Commercial fabric, was on the brink of a collapse. The Sheriff stood at the door, on the point of winding up the con cern. In the midst of peace, health, ac tivity and plenty, with a steady influx of | Gold from our Pacific territory at the rate of Five Millions per month, we were threatened with general bankruptcy. And why ? Simply because our National Policy had been so changed in 1816 as to discourage the production of Metals and Fabrics at home and largely increased their importation from Europe. Conse quently our National income, large as it continued to be, did not suffice to meet our current expenditure. We were sending i Europe all the Cotton we could grow, all the Grain she would take, and all the i Gold we could spare, but these did not i suffice to pay for the ship-loads of Wares and Cloths, of Laces and Gimcracks, that we were rapidiy importing. In vain did we endeavor to 'combat the deficit* with j Federal Stocks, State Stocks. Railroad Ponds and every form of promise to pay which Europe could be induced to accept in lieu of actual payment. Her traders and capitalists were most anxious to keep alive and stimulate our habits of extrav agance, to urge us 011 in the down-bill ca reer on which we were so giddily driving, but they would not take all the ' securities' we urged upon them, for they lacked ade quate safety therein. In vain were smooth tongued notabilities sent out to wheedle them by Buncombe speeches and brilliant figurings of the certain net proceeds of the wild lands and prophetic Railroads they offered to mortgage ; tlie verv men who had admired the dexteritv and dashing abandon of the mathematician in Treasure Reports ami other documents designed to he swallowed, by \ inkees alone, could not see the point of the joke when thev were asked to stake their own fortunes on the soundness ot his calculations. Thev shook their heads, buttoned their pockets, and hurried on. And so the imminent danger of revulsion hung over us even down to the opening of the present year. , —At length, all is changed. llow long the new breeze may last must depend on circumstances, and cannot be foreseen ; but for the present ail danger of a crash is at an end.—The merchants, manufac turers and capitalists of Europe, seeing how steadily our Cotton, our (Lain and our (fold are poured upon them, while the interest on nearly ail our recent Bonds is promptly paid, say to each other—'Why should we kill the goose which lavs us such golden eggs Why even let her commit suicide Rather let us keep her ali\e ami prolific as long as possible'—so they stop pressing for cash payment, and betake themselves to a wider examination and more extensive purchase of Public Securities. <)ne million dollars of these Securities of various kinds have been bought here on Foreign accounts within the last week or two, infusing new po tency into tiie la'ely tottering knees of the Stock Market, and giving the Bulls brill iant prospects for the immediate future. How long the new tides may flow, we do not pretend to guess ; but there is no ob vious reason why it should not hold for mouths at least. Meantime the outward drain of Specie will he checked by the abundance of lulls drawn against the va rious Stocks and Bonds purchased hereon British account; so thai it is not impos sible that our Currency may be expanded. Prices inflated, ami Speculation generally range beyond all recent examph . —' Cilory to goodness !' said the woman who had financiered out of a quuudurv, 'J liave borrowed money enough to pay all my debts!' This female Walker had at least as nuich reason for exultation as our Country has in view of the recent turn of affairs. For, be it ever borne in mind, we have, paid nothing, and are now paying nothing, but only sinking deeper and faster in debt. Instead of paying off the bills that were worrv ins us, and taking due precautious against a like botheration in future, we have simply transformed them into obligations maturing a remote Say. For every Million that we found it inconvenient to pay when due, our polite, creditors have agreed to take Sixty Thous and a year for fifteen or twenty years, and the principal at the end of the term. And we are dealing with this as though we had O O I wiped out the debt, and plunging further in debt at double speed 011 the strength of it. Meantime the Furnaces and Factories which should turn out the Iron and Cloth for which wc arc thus 4 running our face,' ; stand idle and deserted ; the Arlizans and Laborers who should have produced them, wander hither and thither 111 search of em ployment, or are desperately contriving and scheming to reach the Land of Gold, where Labor is not such a drug. For j every hundred dollars' worth of Metals, Cloths or Wares that wc have run in debt for during the past year, lltere has been an American workman standing idle for months past, anxiously seeking work and finding i none. There never before was so great a ; dearth of employment throughout the Free 'j States, as during the past winter, and it | still continues. And still we go on, run i ning in debt Millions per month lor pro j ducts that our now idle Laborers would j gladly make, and calling it buying them cheap. And we have just heard of a large purchase ol Railroad Iron from England at S37A per ton. payable in seven percent. Bonds running fifteen years. Thus for each ton of this Iron over S7O in cash must be paid before and at the maturing of the bonds—but who cares for debts having fifteen years to run ? We mav all be dead before they mature. So hurrah for giant debts abroad and idle Laborers at home ! Hurrah for boundless Speculation to-day, though Banktruptcy be as boundless to morrow ! Hurrah lor giant fortunes made by Bond-mongering and giant Taxes to support our crowded Aims-Houses! Hur rah for blown out Furnaces and British free 'i rade ! —.V. )'. Tribune. Some Interesting Facts. Robert Faries, engineer on the Allegheny Portage Railroad, has made a report to the ( anal (commissioners, which has been for warded to us by one ol our attentive friends in the legislature. He gives the particulars of the contracts on die road to avoid some of the Planes on die western slope of the mountain, showing that work to the amount of $299,000 has been award ed by the Canal Board—being, as the Ca nal Commissioners admitted in their re port. $124,060 7 no re than the legislature authorized. He suggests various improvements—one here, another there—which, if made, will involve the .State still deeper in financial dif ficulty, though we admit it will give further opportunity for plundering to those loeofo co patriots who are always within reach, when money is to be handled. Last winter the legislature appropriated $15,000 to complete the western reservoir, and re-employed Messrs. Moorhead A Parker, who were the contractors under a former law and then suspended opera tions, owing to die embarrassments of the State. Mr. Faries reports that the appro priation of $15,000 was insufficient, and that $55,000 more will be necessary ! 1 he understanding last winter, when the appropriation was granted, was that that amount would finish the reservoir for use. Now the engineer says that $55,000 in ad dition to the previous appropriation will be required! (live us pure eanal-bred loco foeos, when swindling is to be done. Nothing can surpass the dexterity of their manoeuvres. The same report says " during the past fall repairs have been put upon the Sha niokin Sehute, even beyond the amount appropriated by the legislature for that purpose.' 1 ' He recommends additional im provements on this work, and linallv says to •' carry out the repairs as contemplated, and to pay the balance due beyond the ap propriation of lost year, the sum of ten thousand dollars will be required.' These Canal oflicers have as much im pudence as dishonesty. They abuse their power, contract debts illegally, report the amount and iben unblusliingly ask the Mtate to stand responsible for their disre gard of law and their violation of the oaths they took to discharge their duties faithfuliv. Look at the amount of the hills these fellows now seek to fasten upon the State —hills contracted without authority and for the corrupt purpose of bribing voters to aid in the election of Win. Bigler and Sctli Clover. The demands unlawfully contracted within the space of a few miles are as follows : On the Portage road, §1:24,066 Amount demanded for the Western Re servoir, 55,000 Amount demanded for the Shamokin Schute, 10,000 $189,066 This amount, be it remembered, is ex clusive of die heavy appropriations made last year, which have very much crippled the treasury, of the amount annually ap propriated for repairs, and of the large de nt.inds made for new work on the Portage Railroad ! These facts arc but few of the many which could be found everywhere on the public works, if the truth were di vulged. They exhibit a degree of corrup tion which would be startling if it were not unfortunately common. Never until the people drive these plunderers from power, will the public works be economi cally managed and will they he really use ful 111 the material reduction of the burthens of the people.— Lancaster Independent Whig, HENItV ZERBE, having taken the stand lately occupied by Ctark Sc.
