Thousands of horses can be saved from future unsoundness, if when the first symptons of cold or wheezin g is observed, a few doses of the Tattersall's Heave Powders should be administered. They are warranted to wholly eradicate recent heaves at this season. Great Spring. Purifier.—The Heave Powders given in small doses, will be found most useful at this season. They stimulate the skin to cast off the superfluous hair and produce new; they loosen the hide, give a glossy appearance to the coat, pro tect against disease; they also form their fine alterative and restorative powers, purify the blood and renovate the whole system, which horses re quire at this season as much as any of the human race, who find a preparation of Sarsaparilla useful to correct a vitiated state of the fluids, incident to the change of weather, which in the spring affect all animal as well as vegetable life. INCREASING EVIDENCE.—Scarcely a day passes but We receivc•marks of approbation from our agents, and others who have used or sold the emedy.

From Abe Erql:J:ui:uo% THE THREE HOMES. " Where is thy hornet" I asked a child,. Who in the morning air, Was twining flowers most sweet and wild In' garlands for her hair. "My home," the happy heart replied, And smiled in childish glee, " Is on the sunny mountain side Where soft winds wander free." 0! blessings tall on artless youth, And all its rosy hours, W hen every word is joy and truth, And treasures live in flowers! "Where is thy homer" I asked of one Who bent, with flushing face, To hear a warrior's tender tone In the wild wood's secret:place; She spoke not, but her varying cheek, The tale might well impart; The home of her yohng spirit meek Was in a kindred heart. Ali! souls that well might aoar above, To earth will fondly cling, And build their hopes on human love, That light and fragile thing! " Where is thy home, thou lonely man 7" I asked a pilgrim gray, Who came, with furrowed brow, and wan, Slow musing on - his way. lie paused,iand with a solemn mein - Upturned his holy eyes, "The land I seek thou ng , er haat seen, My home is in the skies!" 0! blest—thrice bleSt! the heart must be To whom such thoughts are given, That walks from worldly fetters free ;-- Its only home in heaven. ilfiEccellnneuus. Importance of Education. When the ,people govern themselves, as is the case in this happy country, knowledge is absolutely necessary to discern wherein their true interest con sists. By interest, I do not mean a momentary selfish advantage, but their real permanent good, which will benefit not only themselves, but their posterity after them—which will inspire them with a love of their country superior to all others: for I affirm it, he that loves another nation to the injury of his own, is guilty of political whoredom, be comes a parracide, and is a greater monster than a man with two heads and two hearts. It will teach them that their private and individual inter ests should give way to that of the public where they chance to interfere, which will seldom be the case. When it is, they will be gainers by it in the erd ; like casting their bread upon the waters, it will return to them after many days. But moral ity must give direction and energy to knowledge; otherwise it might sometimes mislead; and de- generate into what is falsely called philosophy. I mean a morality founded on real genuine religion; resulting from a belief of an omnipresent and righteous Deity, who krows every movement of the heart, and will reward and punish according to .the deeds done in the body. A man under such impressions, who makes a sense of his duty to God and man the rule of his conduct, may as safely be trusted in the bosom of a forest, far distant from any eye that might witness his actions, as if he was in the presence of assembled minions If poverty and affliction should be his portion in life, he is resigned and ever serene, his integrity is firm and unchangeable, well knowing that in no wise shall he miss his reward. If prosperity should fall to his lot, he is thankful and humble; none of that bloated pride 'and insolence of wealth which appears in the guilded guilty sons of mammon; none of that cold apathy of heart, and vacancy of face attending fat contented ignorance, Ire be comes the guardian protector of the innocent—the friend and comforter of the deserted and distressed ; —and the faithful steward of the poor; the bless. ings of those who were ready to perish fall upon him, like the fragrant dew of the morning, and his soul is refreshed therewith, He lays himself down in security with unbarred doors; conscious up• rightness softens his pillow; an approving con. science prompts his repose; and his dreams are or Heaven, When lie conies to die, he securely con• fides in hie neighbor, that, as an executor he will be u friend to his widow, and lather to his children, and he is not disappointed, Immensity of Creation. "He who through vast immensity can pierce, See worlds on worlds compose one universe; Observe how system into system runs, What other planets circle other suns; What varied beings people every star, May tell why God has made us as we are." POPE Some astronomers have computed that there are no less than 75,000,000 of suns in this universe. The fixed stars are all suns, having, like our sun, numerous planets revolving round them. The Solar System, or that to which we belong,las about thirty planets primary and secondary, belong. ing to it. The circular field of space which it occupieos in diameter three thousand six hundred millions of miles, and that which it controls much greater. That sun which is nearest neighbor to ours is called Sirius, distant from our sun .about twenty-two billions of miles. Now if all the fixed stars are as distant from each other as Sirius is from our sun • or if our solar system be the aver age magnitude of all the systems of the seventy-five millions of suns, what imagination can grasp the immensity of creation! Every sun of the seventy five millions, cpntrots a field of space about 10,000,000,000 dt mires in diameter. Who can survey a plantation t Ontaining seventy-five millions circular fields, each en billions of miles in diameter! Such however, is one of the plantations of Him— "who has measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, and meted out heaven with a span, and com prehended the dust of the earth in a measure, weighed the mountains in scales, and the hills in a balance;" he who "sitting upon the orbit of the earth, stretches out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in.—Millen ial Arbinger. The Bible. How comes it that this little volume, composed byhumble men in a rude age, when art and science were but in their childhood, has exerted more in fluence on the human mind and on the social sys tem, than all the other books put together? Whence comes it that this book has achieved such marvel lous changes in the opinions of mankind—has ban ished idol worship—has abolished infanticide—has put down polygamy and divorce—exalted the con dition of woman—raised the standard of public morality—created for families that blessed thing, a chr4tian home—and caused its other triumphs by causing benevolent institutions, open and expansive to spring up as with the wand of enchantment? What sort of a book is this, that even the wind'and wave of human passions obey it? What other engine of social improvement has operated so long and yet lost none of its virtue? Since it appeared many boasted plans of amelioration have been tried and failed, many codes of jurisprudence have arisen—run their course, and expired. Empire afterl empire has been launched on the tide of time, and gone down, leaving no trace on the waters.— But this book is still going about doing good, leav ening society with its holy principles--cheering the sorrowful with its consolations—strengthening the tempted—encouraging the penitent—calming the troubled spirit—and smoothing the pillow of death. Can such a book be the offspring of human genius? Does not the vastness of its effects demon. strate the excellency of the power to be of God? Douse Goon.—He is indeed the wisest and happiest man, who by constant attention of thought, discovers the greatest opportunities of doing good, and with ardent and animated resolution breaks through every opposition that he may improve those opportunities. Anecdote of Washington. The folloWing anecdote of Washington was told many years: since; the name ol the relator is not now recolleCted, but it is,remembered that the con nection of ;the individual with the events of the Revolution, was calculated to inspire confidence in its authenticity: C. S. one of the contractors for supplying the American Army, then (1780) stationed at West Point, with fresh provisions, had, on several occa sions, when the high price of cattle threatened to 'make the fulfilment of the terms of the contract not quite so lucrative as was by him originally calculated, failed to furnish the requisite supply, and in lieu thereof, ad interim, gave to the Quarter- Master of each regiment, a certificate, specifying that there was due to such regiment, so many ra tions of beef, &c. These certificates did pretty well for a while, and the privatidn was borne with characteristic patience by a soldiery, accustomed to hardships, and ready to endure anything in the cause of liberty and their country. But even pa tience has its limits—the cause of the omission became at last understood, and dissatisfaction man tested itself throughout the ranks. Remonstrances from the subordinate officers had been repeatedly made, and promises of amendment jeadily and te peatedly given, till at last, finding that nothing but promises came, it was found necessary to complain to the Comntiander-in Chief. Washingtim, after hearing the story, gave imme diate orders for the arrest Mr. S. Upon his being brought into camp and placed under guard, the offl.• cer having him in charge waited upon the General to apprise him of the fact, and to enquire in what way and by ;whom the prisoner was to be red. "Give yourself no trouble, sir," said Washington, "the gentleman will be supplied from my table." The several hours of breakfast, dinner and sup per passed, but not a mouthful was furnished.to the delinquent prisoner. On the ensuing day, at an early hour in the morning, a waiter in the livery of the General, was seen bearing upon a silver salver, all the seeming requisites for a meal care fully covered, and wending his way to the prisoner's room. Upon raising the cover, besides the appa ratus for breakfast, there was found nothino. ' mole than a certificate that "there was due to Mr. C. S one breakfast, one dinner, and one supper;' and signed " G. Washington." After the lapse of a reasonable time the delin quent was conveyed to head:quarters, when Wash ington, in peculiarly significant and emphatic way, addressed him with: "Well, M. S. I presume that by this time you are perfectly convinced how inadequate to satisfy the cravings i of hunger is the certificate of a meal. I trust after ;this you will furnish ho further occa sion for complaint." Then inviting Mr. S. to share in the meal to which he was just sitting down, he improved the lesson by some friendly admonitions, and gave the order for his'discharge.—Metropolis. Au Expensive Name. Mr. Prince, a respectable citizen of Bostdn, was recently jourileying on the continent of Europe. Before visiting Germany he provided himself with a passport in'which his name and place of residence were duly inscribed, James Prince, of Boston, and set out in a plain unpretending style, in company with another American gentleman. At the first town where the travellers stopped, they were re ceived in a stately form by a guard of honor and a grand salute, for which they were presented with a bill of an hundred florins. At a second and a third town they were received in the same style of costly magnificence. The two Americans find ing that at the rate things were going on, their cash would be exhausted before they had arrived at the centre of the first circle, inquired of the host if private gentlemen like themselves could not pass through the German towns without so much osten tation and expense. He informed them that they could, if they pleased, travel incog ; but then, said he, bowing obsequiously to Mr. Prince, "it will be necessary for his highness to take out his title out of the passport." That at once explained the whole matter, and Mr. Prince having caused the proper corrections to be made, went through the remainder of his tour without being annoyed with any further regal honors. Blind Bridlem. "Yen, use your thinking powers, friends. They were given you to use, and not abuse, Blind lieu. dies! Truly named, surely. Art never invented a more fatal thing to the eyes ut horses than when she devised' this plan Or depriving the horse of what nature intendeu he should enjoy. But says one, how are blinders injurious to the horse'? 'Because they gather dirt and heat around the eye, Dirt ir ritates the eye, and heat produces Inflammation These bridles so entrammel the eyes of the horse that he is compelled to be constantly straining them, to see his way. The over exertion of the nerve brings on disease. Eyes were not made in vain. Had they been needless, the Creator would not have located them in the head - . They were placed on the corner of the head that he might have the advantage of looking in different directions. Men in the abundance of their wisdom, concluded that the horse had too much sight, and they wished to curtail it; hence the origin of blind bridles and diseased eyes are inseparably connected. Custom hood-winks the senses of men, as much as blind bridles do the vision of horses." The Dandy and his Turkey. Chief Justice Marshall was in the habit of going to market himself, and carrying home his purchases. Frequently he could be seen at sunrise, with poultry in one hand and vegetables in the other. On one of these occasions a fashionable young man from L—, was swearing violently, because he could find no one to 'carry home his turkey; Marshall stepped up and said to him- "This is on my way, and I will take it for you." When he came to the house, the young man in quired: "What shall I pay you?" "0, nothing," said the Chief Justice. "it was on my way home, ;and no trouble." "Who was that polite old man that brought home my turkey?" inquired the young man of a bystander. "That," replied he, "is John Marshall, Chief Justice of the United States." Why did he bring home my turkey?"' asked the young man. ; "To give you a severe reprimand, and teach you to attend to your own business," was the reply. True, genuine greatness never feels above doing any thing that is useful; but especially the truly great man will never feel above helping himself. A Noble Boy. A boy was once tempted by some of his com panions to pluck ripe cherries from a tree, which his father had forbidden him to touch. "You need not be afraid," said one of his com panions, "for if your father should find out that,you had them, he is so kind that he would not hurt you." "This is the very reason," replied the boy, "why I would not touch them. It is true,. my father would not hurt me; yet my disobedience I know would hurt my f . ather, and that would be worse to me than anything else." A boy who; grows up with such principles, would be a man in the best sense of the word. It betrays a repaid for rectitude, that would render him trustworthy under every trial. A Genuine Progressive. Major Lewis FICW, of Nelson county, Kentucky,' who claims to be the real and genuine "Tecumseh Killer," offers himself as a candidate for the Con vention to remodel the Constitution of that State. lie announces that he will not only advocate . the election of Judges, Magistrates, &c., &c., by the, people, but will also go,for the election of Preach-' ers, School-maiters, and Tavern-keepers. As to Sheriffs, Constables, &c., he regards them as nut sances, and says he will go for abolishing them.. He considers it quite Anti-Democratic to grant' any set 01 men exclusive privileges t merely to be-' devil other people about paying their debts, while they never pay their own.—Baltimore Argue. ID - Christianity commands us to pass by injuries;! policy to let them pass by us. " Father Matthew. A farewell temperance meeting was held in Cork, on the .lth instant, at which Father Matthew atten ded. In the course of his address, he said: ~'My,object, my friends, in .proceeding to the. States of America, in compliance with the invita. tion I may say I have received . from the whole of that great and glorious people, is first to thank them for their sympathy, their well-proved sympathy, with my countrymen, and for the abundant and generous assistance afforded by their liberality and humanity. And, secondly, to promote as much as lies in my power, the great cause of temperance in that vast country, and to diffuse the blessings and happiness which it especially confers amongst the people who inhabit its boundless extent. I find it impossible for me at present to accomplish much in Ireland—much does not remain to be accompli shed, for the greater part of the Irish people have _ taken the total abstinence pledge; and though there have, been lapses and breaches of the pledge, the numbers who have been deluded by temptation are as nothing compared to the great bOdy who still remain faithful to their solemn engagements. The itnriossibility of my labouring as I was heretofore accustomed, in the cause of temperance, is a mat ter merely confined to my own feelings. I could not, in justice to myself, witness the distress which now prevails throughout the entire land—destitu tion quite as great as that which existed_ in the years '46 and '47, when famine was at its height, and people thought such misery could not again be equalled. "It is torelieve myself from this dreadful neces sity, and perhaps also, for the sake of my own .bodily health, which more Aticularly prevents me from making the attempt; and as I cannot effect any good here during the .present season, I am anxious to avail myself of the leisure afforded by the unhappy state of this country, to fulfil my. long promised visit to the people of America,•and to throw myself on the kindness and forbearance of that great and considerate people, who will make allowance for my weakness, produced by severe in firmity, which has continued for more than twelve months. go also to afford myself the pleasure and con sola6on of beholding my exiled countrymen, not, as here, lingering through a life of protracted star vation and constant misery, but in the midst of prosperity, enjoying the remuneration of their in dustry, and all the comforts that plenty and domes tic happiness confer. lam anxtpus to visit that land where I will behold no Irishinan or Irish wo men deprived of the necessaries of life, but where I will' see all enjoying peace and prosperity under the wings of the American eagle. A Lesson for Young Men. The editor of the Methodist Protestant of Balti more, concludes a notice of the murder recently committed by John Price, with the following touching remarks: Price is a notorious character, well known in our midst as " City John." The writer of this was a school fellow with him, and remembers "John Price" when he was a playful, happy little boy. It is painful to think of the changes that have come over that smooth-faced child. All our recollections of him are those of boyhood. Many a time have we sighed in spirit as we read" in the newspapers and police reports the evidences of his deepening depravity, and his heartless abandonment of all that was lovely and of 'good report." It is said that th is the fourth case in which death has been i,? laid to , s charge. How this may be weoknow not, bu his name has long been associated with deeds of riot and infamy. Price is said to be gentle and easily managed-- a fellow of good heart in the sense in which men of the world use that phrase—when sober—but when in liquor he becomes a perfect fiend. Drink ing and gaming have doubtless brought him to his present condition. What a lesson is here for young men to study! Who that had looked upon the writer of this and John Price as they sat together in the same school, or shared in the amusement of the same play ground, could have predicted that the time would have come when he would be what he is, and we be writing with a sad heart the story of his infamy, Yet such is Life! Thank God that his grace has kept us from the wine cup, from the gaming table, and from the remorse of a murdeter's conscience I Inveterate fluidic There is nothing more familiar to our daily oh- Nervation than the power and inveteracy of habits, insomuch that any decided propensity is strength.. ened by every new act of indulgence, and virtuous principle is more firmly established than before by every new new act of resolute obedience to its . dic tates. The law which connects our wings of boyhood or of youth with the character of man hood, is the identical law which connects our act ings in time with our character in eternity. The way in which the moral discipline of youth pre pares tor the honors and enjoyments ot a virtuous manhood, is the way in which the moral and spiritual discipline of the whole tile prepares for a virtuous and happy immortality; and on the other hand the succession of cause. and effect from a profligate youth and dishonest manhood to a dis graced and worthless old age, is just the succession also of cause and effect between the misdeeds and depravities of our history on earth, and our endu rance of worthlessness and wretchedness forever:— Chalmers. Anecdote of Old Dartmouth. In the class of which Daniel Webster was a member, there was an individual noted for.his wag gery. One day, the professor of logic, who by the way, was not the most nice and discriminating in his distinctions, was endeavoring - to substantiate a that a thing remains the same thing notwithstand ing a substitution in some of its parts." Our wag, who had been exercising the Yankee art of whittling, at length held up his jack knife, inquiring: "Supposing I should lose the blade of my knife, and should get another made and inserted in ifs place, would it be the same knife it ,was before?' "To be sure," replied the professor. "Well, then," the wag continued, 'suppoiiii should then lose the handle, and 'get another, would it be the same knife still ?" "Of course!" the professor again replied. "But if somebody should find the old blade and the old handle and should put them together, what knife would tharber We never learned the professor's reply Tr - anaLated from a German Journal tiy - Drunkenness is severely punished in Sweden; whoever is found drunk for the first time , has to pay a line of three dollars, the second time six dol.. tars, the third time about nine dollars, besides he loses his right to vote, and on Sunday following, he is fastened to a post near the church door. For the fifth offence he is confined six months in the Penitentiary; for the sixth twelve months. The punishment is still more severe to those Who are found drunk at fairs, and public places, &c. There is no excuse for drunkenness,—no ardent spirit is permitted to be given to soldiers, students, servants, &c. - The intormer is entitled to one half of the fine.
