Scatter Ye Seeds.
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.

Oh! Comrades, Kill m> (iiass for "We.
BY STtrneK G. FOSTER.
Oh ! comrades, fill no glass for me
To drown my soul in liquid flame ;
for if I drink, the toast should be—
To blighted fortune, health, and fame.
Yet, thought I long to quell the strife
That passion holds against my life,
Still boon companions may ye be ;
But, comrades, fill no glass for mcl
I know a breast that once was light,
Whose patient sufferings need my care—
J know a heart that once was bright;
But drooping hopes hare nestled there.
Then, while the tear-drops slightly steal
From the wounded heart that I should heal.
Though boon companions you may be ;
But, comrades, fill no glass for uic !
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.
Then by a mother's sacred tear,
By all that memory should revere.
Though boon companions ye may be,
But, comrades, fill no glass for me!

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
<icar. Nothing is with them impossible,
but to shrink from love, honor, innocence,
and religion, The voice of pleasure or of
power may pass by unheeded, but the
voice of affection—never. The chamber
of the sick —the pillow of the dy ing—the
altars of religion, never missed the pres
ence or the sympathies of kind women.
Timid though she be, and so delicate that
the winds of heaven may not too roughly
\ isit her, on such occasions site loses all
sense of danger, and assumes a preternat
ural courage, which knows not nor fears
consequences. Then she displays that
undaunted spirit which neither courts dif
iicultics nor evades thorn ; that resignation
which utters neither murmur t<r regret;
and that patience in suffering which seems
victorious even over death itself.
It) thy discourse, take heed v.*liat 'lion
speakest, to whom thou speakest, how
ihou speakest, and when thou speakest.
W hat thou speakest, speak truly ; and
when thou speakest, speak wisely. A
j tool's heart is in his tongue ; but a wise
utjpi's tongue is iu his heart.
Praise no man too liberally before his
face, nor censure him too lavishly behind
his back ; the one savors of flattery ; the
other of malice; and both are reprehen
sible. The true way to advance another's
virtue is to follow it; and the best means
to crv down another's vice is to decline it.

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.

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

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
