I envv him not a possession so rare, My ambition-aspires something higher than this, Though dandies and dunces may think and declare A snowy soft hand the perfection of bliss. Let the fop with his lotions, cosmetics, cologne ; Eau'dc rose,and pearl powder, and sweet ottar gul, Lave, anoint and perfume, and the softest hands own, He owns in addition, a much softer skull. Tic sees in the soft hand the texture of wit; lie deems it the measure of talent and worth; Fond fool, he possesses of neither a whit, — llis hand is his intellect, empire and earth. j J Awav witii his wisdom, that is but skin deep : Fops, dandies, and dunces, off, each to his den, 1 take not the hand of a coxcomb, but.keep Mv respects and salutations lor much better men.

Tim toil-hardened hand gives me proof of a soul, Not to vanity wedded, conceit and false shame; But iaiudiil am! fearless, with God for its goal, And justice its object, its.practice and aim. Tlie foil-hardened hand is the index of truth, Independence, integrity, intellect, pride— Not the pride born of folly, the romance of youth, But the pride'the heart teaches with truth for its The toil-hardened hand is the hand of the free, The bold, the deserving, tlie manly, the good ; Who clings to tlie fetters ? who frows the slack knee ? To the tyrant as none but a slave-spirit could ? Not he with the toil-hardened hand ! no, he stands Erect in the image of God; and the chain, Though its links be of silver, and golden its bands, lie spurns —will be free, and his freedom maintain! Tlie toil-hardened hand, though its owner he poor, Farmers, arfizans, laborers, how humble soe'er — Is the hand clasping honor, and honored the more, And the hand the almighty must hold tlie most dear. Thou give me the grasp oi' the toil-hardened hand. How honest its pressure! how frank its rough hold! There's truth in its welcome, and rugged and tanned, I prize it much higher than silver or gold. iHisccllctncous. From the Memphis Gazette. TIs«? s>£sHEm Torussj Writ.

A crushed heart, on which he has trod with a heel ol.iron may be sobbing away its last breath in an atmosphere of pollution, and he heeds it not. • Why did she not respect herself ?' he triumphantly asks, ‘and then I would -have re spected her also/ The world, echoes the sentiment and the self-condemned, selffaccused. wretch, sinks away from the cold sneer of untried virtue, to the oblivion of infamy- her murderer probably stands in the hall of legislation, of the temple of justice, and his sycophants point him out as a god-like man."

'The following is the message of President Polk, transmitted on Monday last a week to Congress, apprizing ; it of the course pursued by Mr. Rush in recognizing the new French Government, which the President fully approves: To the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States :—I communicate to Congress, for their information, a copy of the despatch, with the ac companyingdocumenls. received at the "Department of State.,from the Envoy Extraordinary and Minis ter Pleiitpptentiarv of the United States, at Paris, giving official information of the overthrow of the French monarchy, and the establishment, in its stead, of a provisional government, based on repub lican principles. This great event occurred sud denly, and was accomplished almost without blood shed The world has seldom witnessed a more interesting or sublime spectacle than the peaceable design of the French people, resolved to secure for •themselves, enlarged liberty, and to assert, in the majesty of their strength, the great truth that, in this enlightened age. man is capable of governing himself. The prompt recognition of the new gov ernment bv the representative of the United States at the French Court.meetswith my full and unquali fied approbation: and he has been .authorized, in a ! suitable manner, to make known this fact to the ! constitutional authorities of the French Republic. J called upon to act upon a sudden emergency, which j could not have been anticipated by his instructions. Ilf judged rightly of the feelings and sentiments of his government and of his countrymen, when, in advance of the diplomatic representatives o] other countries, he was the first to recognize, so far as it was in his power, the free government estab lished by the French people. The policy of the United States lias ever been that of non-intervention in the domestic affairs of other countries, leaving to each to establish the form of government of its own choice.

That such sympathy should exist On the of the people of the United States with tree govern ment in every part of the world, and e.-pecially in Franco, is not remarkable. We can never forget that France was our early friend in our eventful revolution, and generously aided us in shaking off a foreign yoke and becoming a free and independent people.

Our ardent and sincere gratulations are extended! to the patriotic people of France,upon their noble, and thus far. successful efforts to found for their future government liberal institutions sim ilar to our own.

The value of the crop is very variously estimated, the product being on an average, on good land, GOO bushels per acre, the profits being sometimes estimated as high as 8u dollars per acre, their value varying in different seasons and places. It is one of the most valauble crops raised by the farmer, although they are less esteemed than formerly; still, they are excellent food for all kinds of cattle, sheep and horses, and produce large quantities of the best manure. 2.

At the time of the former's death, John Jacob asked: i , “ How much did he leave V' I “ Seventeen millions,“ was the reply, j That won't do,” said the survivor—-that won't do.” | Since Girard's death, Astor's wealth nearly doubled.

Bearer of Despatches. A gallant and fashionable officer, who lately ar rived in the city of Mexico, reporting to the Com mander-in-chief. went to a barbers shop to adjust his dress and remove the signs of his arduous journey. When he . had completed his toilet, and rigged himself in a fine ruffle shirt and spick-span new uniform, he went to Head-quarters and pre sented himself to the Commander-in-chief, with-the despatches of which he. was the bearer. “ When i did you arrive, sir ?' r asked the General imperatively. “About three or four hours ago, sir.’’ “ Why did you not report immediately?' 5 “I only delayed, sir. to make myself decent to appear before you 5 “ Sir.” remarked the old General, with great em phasis. “ I would have you remember that a bearer of despatches should deliver liis package with the dust upon him ” The “ handsome Major” received the rebuke in an excellent humor, and went his , way with a pretty elevated idea ot the authority of old “Fuss and Feathers.” This story reminds us of our “ Mustang,' 5 who came very near being treated more roughly than the aforesaid Major, lor carrying out General Scott's idea of despatches. On his arrival at Wash ington, he went immediately, in the very same clothes with which he had started from Mexico, and which bore pretty strong marks of his two thousand miles journey, to the residence of the Secretary ol War. Knocking at the door of the house, our friend was received by a pug-nosed servant, who judging by appearances, came to no favorable conclusion as to the character of the visiter, and peremptorily informed him that the Governor couldn’t be seen. -1 must see him.

I will take a siesta in this chair.” The lady terrified at this suggestion, went immediately to the Governor, who. presently appeared, yawning and frowning indignantly;—“Who is it that thus disturbs mo at this hour •“ Sir,” replied “ Mus tang,” “ 1 am directed by Gen.

A short time afterwards a messenger from the War Office made his appearance at Fuller's Hotel and desired imme diately to see Mr. F —sending his card up—but was very coolly informed that that gentleman could not he interrupted, as he was taking his siesta. The Governor, who loves a joke as. much as a pinch of snuff laughed hcartly at the “ retaliatory measures." of our friend, whose promptness and activity he complimented in very high terms. A* ic- Orleans Delta. of Gen. Scott, The Mexican correspondent of the IS*. O. Pica yune tells the following; Uct me tell you an auecdute of. Gen. Scott that is relatei here. When in Puebla, in view of the pos sdhility of being cut oil' in the battles he had to light in this valley, he put all his important papers in a box. sealed it and left it in the hands of a friendly Mexican family on leaving the city, with' directions to send it to his family in case any thing happened him. Since he found the Court of Inqui ry was to sit here he sent for the box, to obtain from it some papers necessary in the preparation of his case. A box arrived precisely similar to the one he expected, and was placed in his room, where it lay several' days unopened. The papers were at last imperatively demanded, and Capt. being present at the time, the General, who' was busy writing, requested him to open the box, and hand them to him. The Captain did as requested, and pulling out several printed handbills, com menced reading one of them. . The General at last became impatient, arid looking up. asked the Cap tain what lie was reading. The Captain, who is somewhat of a wag. turned round aud-read the following certificate: Nr.w York, June 3d, IS4S.. Mu.
