For the Intelligencer THE FAMILY DEAD BY TUB GLADE BARD The):mart instinctively returns With love, unto the kindred dead, And calls unto the mind again, The images of those who 'ye fled. The first a sister, lovely, fair, Was summoned to the silent tomb, When earth was gay, and all was bright, And decked in robes of sweetest bloom, A few bright summers only shone Upon her path of life below ; When angel bands conveyed her home, To mansions free of pain and woo. A brother next, nearest by birth, The fond companion of my play; By cold Consumption's chilling hand, In Manhood's prime, was called away. Oh, ever dearly cherished shade, Thy image hovers round me now, With all the purity of love That garnished then thy youthful brow. I see thee still, though years have fled Since thou wart numbered with the dead; And disappointment and despair, Have shrouded all my way with care. .1 see thee still, as in thy youth, Thy noble form and brow of truth, Are mirrored on my memory's glass, In images that cannot pass. My fancy steals away to thee, I bear the bell with solemn tone, That told In mournful cadence deep, That thou from earth, alas, had'st gone My mind still images the pall, That wrapt thee in eternal sleep , And in my ear yet rings the voice Of lamentation, sad and deep. A little while, and I again Stood by my eldest brother's bed, The hand of death-had ohilled his form, And the immortal soul had fled Though cold and pale his pulaeless form Lay there, before my sorrowing eyes ; My heart o'erflowed with feelings doep— Of visions of our former joys. The lone, damp graye doth hold his form, The clods are heaped upon his breast; But his immortal spirit's gone To the bright land of.endless rest. A few years sped away, and then, My honored Father left me too; The cherished sire of my youth, And firmest friend that e'er I knew His body sleeps beneath the sod, But still his image lives in me; I still behold his tender smiles, That blessed my helpless infancy : Fond memory e'er will hold in truth, The honored parent of my youth. Farewell my sister, a long farewell, Adieu my brothers in the tomb ; My reverend father fare-thee-well, And rest in thy immortal home. Farewell, a long farewell, ye dead , Oh, may your spirits rest in peace, In that fair land, where angels' songs Of endless glory, never cease; And when my pilgrimage is run, I trust to meet you on that shore, Where pain and sickness enter not, And death and parting are no more! NEW PROVIDE:aII?, 1858. INAUGURAL ADDRESS OF GOVERNOR WILLIAM F. PACKER. FELLOW-CITIZENS: In appearing before you to outer upon my duties as Governor of the Common wealth, I consult my own inclinations in conforming to the usage which demands a popular address; and, in the first place, I gladly embrace this opportunity to return my profound and grateful thanks to the I People of Pennsylvania, for honoring me with the Chief Executive office in their government. Their kindness will never be forgotten, nor will the confi dence they have reposed in me ever be intentionally betrayed. Duty to them and to myself will require that the obligation which I have just taken to dis charge my public duties with fidelity shall be faith fully observed; and thus justify, as far as possible, the popular decision. Doubtless 1 may commit er rors in a position involving so much of responsibility; but I will hope that none of them will be of a grave character, or productive of vital injury to the public interests. I crave in advance a charitable judgment upon my official conduct—that it shall be construed with kindness and toleration so long as it shall ap pear to be prompted by sincere and honest motives— and I here engage, in this public and formal manner, to regard the will of the people, the public good, and the commands of the Constitution, as the guiding lights by which my course is to be directed. With these aims constantly in view, I shall indulge the pleasing hope of doing some good in the high station to which I have been called by.the public voice, and of repressing some evils which may threaten the public welfare, or the individual rights of the people. Fellow Citizens of the - Senate and House of Re presentatives : It will be my ardent desire to culti vate with you, as Representatives of the people, the most amicable relations, and to unite with you in the adoption of all such measures as the public good tufty require. The different branches of the government, although charged with distinct duties, are to be re garded as parts of one harmonious whole ; audit is well when all these parts move onward without jar, interference, or collision. Nevertheless, the distinct duties of the Ezecutive, when duly and honestly per formed, may occasion differences with the Legislature; but, in such case, it will be expedient to cultivate a upirit of compromise and conciliation for the disposal o f such differences, or, at least, for mitigating the feelings of alienation to which they tend. It is one of the duties of the executive from time to time. to give to the General Assembly informa tion of the state of the commonwealth, and recom mend to their consideration such measures as he shall judge expedient; and under usage this is done by messages in writing, which are entered among the public records and remain a part of the official history of the State. Ido not understand this as a power of dictating to the General Assembly the mess urea they shall adopt, nor even as a power of initiating laws, but as an informing and suggesting power, in no respect trenching upon the just and proper jurisdiction of the legislative department of a free State. In short, it was never intended to give a legal control over the proceedings of the representatives of the people in the enactment of laws. It is, therefore, a right of commu nikation with them,which,while prudently and reason ably exercised, can give no just occasion for jealousy, objection, or complaint. The Executive, when exer Oising this right, is but performing a plain duty, and can apprehend no difficulty in speaking with a re spectful freedom even upon questions where an en- tire agreement of sentiment cannot be expected. But, there is another and more delicate power which pertains to the relations between the Legislative and Executive departments. By the twenty-third and twenty-fourth sections of the first article of the Con stitution, all bills passed by the General Assembly, and most of the orders, resolutions and votes in which they may concur, are submitted to the Executive, and if disapproved by him can only be made valid by a vote of two-thirds of each House. This power of disapproval is among the most important duties of the Executive, and is constantly becoming more so, from the operation of obvious and natural causes. In my opinion it is the clear and binding duty of the Executive to return for reconsideration every bill, order, resolution or vote, presented to him which he cannot approve—in other words, that the assent of his judgment and conscience shall be actually given to any measure before he ,permits it to take effect; unless, indeed, it be passed against his objection by a two-third vote. • The words of the Constitution are " if he approve he shall stirn it, but, if he shall not approve, he shall return it with his objections to the House in which it shall have originated." Words could not convey a power, and prescribe a duty in a more clear and definite form. It is manifestly the in tention of the Constitution that the deliberate and conscientious approval of the Governor shall be given to a, bill before it becomes a law, in addition to the approval of the two Houses that have previously passed it ; unless the majorities afterwards given to it upon re-consideration in each House, shall be so de cisive as to clearly indicate the wisdom of the measure. It is true that upon things trivial or indifferent, where no great interests are involved, nor constitu • ,tional principles in question, nor private rights ras 'sailed, considerations of expediency may be taken into account by the Executive; but certainly no sub stantial objection, whether of policy or principle, Pan be waived by him in view of his oath to support X.he Constitution. Ten days (Sundays excluded,) areial lowed to the Executive to consider a bill,,and to rip prove or veto it, after which it will become a law without his signature, if not previously returned.— The practice of my predecessors has been occasion ally to permit bills to become laws by this limitation of time. They have taken effect in theentir4b- Bence of Executive action. But I believe this has only occurred where the Executive has found it 'im possible to form a positive opinion upon the measure —whore though not unobjectionable, it was trivitil— or, where it was manifest that a veto would not cause its defeat. This Executive practice ought not tti be extended, and the practice itself is open to question. For if the provision that bills neither signed nor, re turned within ten days, shall become laws, was in tended as a guard against Executive abuse, in held ing them an undue period, and not as a mode by which the executive might cause them to take effect, without the responsibility of acting upon theixl, it would seem clear that the practice of holding them over for such purpose cannot be defended. !, But the Legislature by its adjournment within', ten days after the passage of a bill, may deprive the E xecutive of due time for considering it, and hence it is provided that in such case It shall become alaw 1 unless sent baclewithin three days after the next i meeting. In modern practice a large number of bills are usually sent to the Governor Within a few days of the adjournment of the Legislature, which it is impossible for him to consider duly before the; ad journment takes place. In fact many are sent to him in the very closing hours of the session. !;But it would eoem plain that the Executive could re4son , ably ask in such case only, the full constitutional period of ten days for forming his opinion, and!t hat all bills he believes it his duty to approve shall ac tually be signed within that period. By the Ozer cise of reasonable industry this can in all casks be accomplished. Then, such bills as he disapproves will be held over to be retnrned to the proper brfinch of the General Assembly within three days after the nest meeting, acoording to the constitutional prpvis ion. This will properly dispose of all the bills in his hands at the adjournment, unless indeed it be allowable to hold over bills and permit them to be come laws without his notion. The propriety of signing bills by the Governor between the sessions uf the Legislature has been questioned. It does not accord with the old praatioe, and is certainly liable to abuse. • During my ',term it will be strictly confined to the first ten days 'after an adjournment, and all bills not then approved may be considered as awaiting the next meeting of the General Assembly, to be returned with the Execu tive disapproval. The Executive should not be l l sub jected fur long periods of time to the solicitations of those interested in bills, nor should he be subject to tho, imputations of indecision, or favoritism almost unavoidable in such cases. Nor is it right thitt, he should have in his hands the means of inflhence whica the holding open sof his decision upon;' bills during a recess would confer. Besides a great wrong may be done to those interested in legislation, by continuing for an undue period in uncertainty as to the fate of bills in which , their rights;their property, or their business may be involved. These are evils which an Executive may obviate by settling his policy firmly in the outset of his administration. It would be well also for the Legislature to so Shape its action as to avid the necessity of sending ninny important bills to - the Governor ha the closing tditys or hours of the session. Fellow Citizens:—Although it will not be ex petted that I should at this time discuss in detail the particular questions which will probably come nefore the government during my term, I desire,briefiy to give expression to the general views of public policy to which 1 hold, in their application to practical,issues now pending. The currency of the State is in Such a disordered condition, that a general and wholesome public opinion demands its reform, and tile establish ment of effectual barriers against future convulsions. This is a subject which will test the intelligence, the firmness, and the patriotism of the Representatives of the people in the Legislative department, and may impose grave responsibilities upon theExecutk;,e. My views are decidedly hostile to the emission ancr,circu tenon of small notes as a currency; to the increase of Banking capital under present arrangements; and to the issues of bank paper upon securities inadequate for their redemption. The want of uniformity in the legal provisions un der which existing banks operate, is objectionable. In the revision and amendment of our banking sys tem, the publio interests in my opinion demand the extonsion of the specie basis upon which issues are made ; the suppression of the smaller denomination of notes heretofore allowed ; thorough reportsof the condition and business of banks with their frequent publication : additional security, (other than Specie) to consist of the bonds of this State or of the dnited States, for the redemption of circulating notes, in cluding in all cases proper individual liability of stockholders and directors, fitted for convenient and actual enforcement ; with a supervisory and control ling power in some proper officer or departnient of banks in ease of their violation or evasion of the law. When a speoie currency shall be secured "Lto the people by prohibiting the circulation of bills of a sma'l denomination, it will be highly desirable that the fiscal affairs of the State government shall be wholly separated from those of the banks: in other words, that the money transactions of the government both in its collections and disbursments shal9 be in the legal coin of the country. Whenever a plutioa ble, convenient and efficient scheme for thenperit tions of the Treasury upon such a basis can he pre sented to me by Representatives of the people; it will meet with a cheerful approval. There are difficul ties in the ease, however, far greater than tilde° sur mounted by the general government, in the ;estab lishment of its independent Treasury system; but the object being one of the first magnitude, and cal culated to exercise a salutary influence upon the action of the government, and upon the business of the government to restrain or suspend the action of the banks and the people, it is well worthy of ear nest consideration. In reforming the currency, a single State can accomplish but a moderate amount of good, however sincere, intelligent and earnest it may be, Without the co-operation of other States, and especially those which adjoin it. Bank notes are not stopped irl their flow by imaginary State lines, nor does it seem pos sible for a State altogether to prevent foreign notes from circulating within her borders, even by the most stringentenactments. We must, therefore, in voke our sister States to join with us in the repres sion of small paper, and in such other particulars of reform as require for complete success their do-ope ration. Meantime to the extent of our powerpet us exert ourselves to furnish our citizens with - a sato and stable currency, to prevent future financial convulsions similar to that under which the commu nity has for some time been struggling; and to re lieve the government in its fiscal action from the danger of depreciated and worthless paper, and the embarrassment arising from dependence upon corpor ations of her own creation. The people of Pennsylvania by the recent adop Lion of an amendment to the Constitution on the subject of Public Indebtedness, have imposed an imperative obligation upon their servants to practise economy, to limit expenditures, and give their best efforts to the gradual but eventual extinguishment of the existing public debt. After eight years of experience under the sinking fund act of 1849, we find our indebtidnese but slightly diminished'. The constitutional amendment just adopted demands the establishment of an effective sinking fund for its payment, and I shall consider it one of the leading duties of my administration to see that the amend ment is earried out both in its letter and spirit. I cannot regard the preduction of the 3 mill tax en property made et the regular session of the Legisla ture, otherwise than inopportune ; and doubtless ex isting financial embarrassments will for a time reduce the amount derived from other sources of revenue. Nor will any very large amount of the purchase money of the main line of the publia works be realized by the Treasury for a considerable-peri od. It will, therefore, be necessary for the State to husband her resources, and to increase her revenues as far as possible, without oppression to any interest, in order to meet her current and necessary outlays, the demands of her creditors, and the positive obli gation of the constitutional amendment. There is a great lack of consistency and principle in the laws passed during some years in relation to incorporations. They have been created upon no settled, uniform plan ; are ex cessive in number; and many of them unneces sary to the accomplishment of any legitimate purpose. They have doubtless encotiraged speculations, and in various ways contributed to the recent financial convulsion. 'Various andi inconsistent provisions appear in acts establising or extending the powers of bodies of the same class and generadcharacter. The tax laws relating to them are in some confu sion, and consequently taxes paid by them unequal, while some wholly escape any . share of the public burdens. In brief, our system of incorporations has become so vast, diversified :mil difficult of comprehension, that no reason able industry can master the whole stihjeet, and understand precisely where we are and whither we are drifting. A thorough revision of our laws on this subject, and the establish anent of general, uniform, regulations for each class of corporate bodies, and the avoidance, .9.F1 far as possible, of special provisions for par ticular corporations, are reforms imperiously demanded by the public interests in which I shall heartily co-operate. I have no hostility to express against corporations for proper objects beyond the power of individual ',means and skill ; nor generally against legislative facilities for the application of labor and cap ital to the creation of wealth, where individual unprompted action will not go. But no one can assert that we have limited ourselves to such a policy, nor that our laws on this subject have been careful, consistent and just. But, notwithstanding all topics of regret or criticism in our, public :career, (and which "THAT COUNTRY IS THE MOST PROSPEROUS WHERE LABOR COMMANDS THE GREATEST REWARD." LANCASTER CITY, PA.. TUESDAY MORNING, JANUARY 26, 1858. should bear their proper fruit in amendment and reform,) we may well he proud of this Pennsylvania of ours—of her people, her instit utions and her laws. She has become treat, prosperous and powerful ; ranking among the first of the States; and her oondition at home and character abroad bear testimony to her merits, and promise for her a distinguished future. Besides her agricultural resources, which are great and first in importance, she is capable of producing in untold :if:quantities • those two articles of prime necessity and universal use, Iron and Coal. Even in times of wide spread financial calamity, when speculation and extravagance have done their worst to cripple the operati,m - - of capital, and stay the hand of labor in its useful toil, the leading interests of our State may be counted among the first to revive an Ito furnish a strong and reliable , basis for the re- • sumption of activity in all the channels of em• ployment, and in all the operations of trads.— • That government would be unwise and blind which would administer the public affairs of this State, otherwise than in a spirit of kindness and protection to these great and capital inter-; ests. From the earliest period of our history, it has been the policy of Pennsylvania to educate all her citizens; and at this time our institutions of learning and educational facilities are equal to those of any country. Our Common School ' system is Justly distinguished as one of the most practical and efficient in the Union. Let us then cherish this traditional policy, coming down to us from the fathers of the Common wealth, and by every meal's in our power foster ' and strengthen the measures uow successfully producing the results so ardently desired by the patriotic men who have gone before us. While our domestic affairs and policy natu rally will occupy most of the attention of our Government and our people, it is not to be for gotten that - Pennsylvania bears very interesting relations to the other States of the confederacy, and looks with an anxious eye to the proceed ings and policy of the General Government. It is both our duty and our interest to cultivate the most friendly relations with our sister States, and to frown upon all attempts to sow among them feelings of alienation. We should exert our whole influence to keep the ov eminent of the Union in its true position, as agents of the States and the peop: exercising high powers in trust for their al tage and welfare, and deriving all its pow, from the written constitution which called it o being. At this time we have strong reason confide in that Government, as we know ti: its ad ministration is in safe, able and patri. hands; and that it may be trusted to deal ju with all sections of the country. Insubordination—an utter disregard con- tempt of just and lawful authority—ha here tofore produced difficulties in the Territ sof Kansas and Utah, and, in the case of the 'ter, has now precipitated a state of armed h. ity between the inhabitants and the General v ernment. In the former, the peaceful A : can remedy for the redress of political g -- auces, real or imaginary—the ballot-box— been for a long time abjured by a cousidei portion of the population, and a struggle - tweeu legal authority and unlawful and irre:2 lar combinations continued down to the prese period. Meantime, contributions of money an aid from the States, have kept up excitemen and turbulence in the Territory, and enabled designing men there to inflame passions, which otherwise would long since have subsided.— The judgment and opinion of the country can not be too strongly consolidated in favor of the laws, and against all who rise up to oppose them by unauthorized means:. Nor cair the excuse for resistance to the TerritOrial laws, and for failing to perform the duties of citizenship un der them, that wrongs and 'frauds were perpe trated at elections, be admitted as a justification. Where elections are so frequent, and the right of suffrage so liberal, as in this country, it is peculiarly the duty of good citizens to obey ex isting authorities, and even objectionable laws, knowing that the former can be changed, and the latter modified or repealed, within a very brief period. And as to disputed elections, they must be decided by the proper legal authority, and not by individual citizens, or irregular self constituted assemblages. Insubordination to necessary and rightful au thority, inst'gated and encouraged by unworthy men in the organized States, who desired that discord should continue, and were willing' to contribute to that object, is the prolific fountain from which the troubles in Kansas have hereto fore proceeded. It was natural, perhaps inevi table, that this conduct by a party in the terri tory should provoke an opposite party to many unjustifiable acts, and to much imprudent and unreasonable conduct. Thus extremes act and re-act upon each other, and when the laws are defied and individual action let loose, wrong, outrage and violence are necessary results The last phase of the Kansas question, which is upon the constitution framed by a Territorial Convention, is peculiarly for the judgment of Congress, to which the power of admitting new States is confided by the constitution of the Union. The representatives of the people and of the States in Congress assembled, will meet that question under all the responsibilities which they owe to their constituents, and which are imposed upon them by their oath of office ; and with full information upon matters of fact important to the formation of a final judgement. Events are constantly occurring in the territory which will afford matter for Congressional de bate, and may affect the ultimate decision. To the people of Pennsylvania, the admission of a new State into the Union—into the confed eracy of which she is a member—must be at all times a subject of high interest. Aud I believe I express their sentiments as well as my own, in declaring that all the qualified electors of a Ter ritory, should have a full and fair opportunity to participate in selecting delegates to form a Constitution preparatory to admission as a State, and, if desired by them, they should also be allowed an unqualified right to vote upon such Constitution after it is framed. Of course those who then fail to vote, in either case, can not complain that the proceeding goes on with out their participation. It is to be hoped, that Congress will make such provision for other Territories that the present difficulty will have no repetition in the future. In conclusion, permit me to observe, that all experience and reflection prove that the moral virtues form the only firm foundation of public order, as well as individual character, and their support should therefore engage the profound attention of Government, and the co-operation of all good men. Frail indeed will be any structure reared for the regulation of society, and the promotion of man's true and substan tial happiness, unless it stand upon a founds ! tion more permanent than paper arrangements, or the fleeting impulses of the hour! The re cognition of a Great Supreme Power, which rules the affairs of nations and of men, is the only support of those virtues which can make a people distinguished and prosperous, and give to Government duration and success. Sincere ly imploring Divine guidance in the performance of duty, I assume the post assigned me by the people, indulging the hope that at the termina tion of my service I shall enjoy the approval of my own conscience, and behold Pensylvauia ad vanced and secure in her position as one of the great communities of the New World—her standard aloft,'and proudly bearing, untarnish ed, her motto of "Virtue, Liberty and Indepen deuce."

VISIT TO VALLEY rORGEL About sixteen miles up the Schuylkill from Philadelphia, a small stream leaves the rich and beautiful valley of Chester, and winds its way through a deep ravine between two mountains and empties its clear waters into the river. The moun tains are filled with iron ore, and as the stream affords water power, the old inhabi tants of the colony erected at its mouth a mill and around them a few houses, and the place was known as the " Valley Forge." It was after the disastrous results of the battles of Brandywine and Germantown, Common in which the Americans lost 2000 soldiers whom in their already reduced state they could so poorly spare, that Washington was forced to give up Philadelphia to the enemy, and lead his drooping and discour aged army to this secluded spot, which the sufferings of that little band, while it lay and shivered there during the memorable winter of '76, has made immortal. We approached the old encampment by a road leading down a narrow defile which forms the bed of the stream, and ascended to the summit where the army lay, by a rugged pathway which is still to be traced among the rooks, and were shown by our guide as we passed the different spots, where the cannon had been planted to .2.uard the entrance. When we reached he summit we found it partially covered ith trees and underwood, yet eighty years id not been able to destroy the efforts it feeble band had put forth for self-pro ion. There was still to •be seen a ditch at. embankment, which at present is about th. • feet high, extending more than two mu around the top of the mountain. A he more open and unprotected points are . - .1 to be seen five different forts of difie.. forms, more or less perfect.. They were : bably built principally of logs, but they long since decayed, and their forms a i resent are to be traced only by piles of :t which had been thrown up to strengtlic them. The most perfect ono at present t.. ill about ten feet high, and probably • , hundred feet square, with a dividing ri e running diagonally from one corner to t other, forming two apartments of equal size, \i uh but ono narrow entrance. It all remain. l uite perfect and the walls or banks arc covered with trees. The tents of the soldiers were made of poles, which seem to have been twelve or fifteen feet long, built in the form of a pen, with dirt thrown thrown up on the outside to keep ont the storm. Their remains are still to be seen, situated in little groups over the enclosure. While down near the old Forge we were shown an old stone house, about 20 by 30 feet, which served as head quarters, in which Washington lived surrounded by his staff during the winter. We entered the venerable building with feelings of the deepest emotion, and exam ined the room which served the illustrious chief as bedroom and audience chamber. It is very plain, and the furniture much as he had left it. A small rough box in a deep window sill,was pointed out as having contained his papers and writing material. The house is occupied by a family who take pleasure in showing to visitors the different items of interest. The old cedar shingled roof which protected the " Father . of his country " eighty years ago, had still sheltered the old headquarters until a year or two ago, when it was removhd, and its , place occupied by tiu. The graves of the soldiers are still to be seen in distant clusters over the ground, but are most numerous in the northeast division, where the regiments from the South were quartered, death having rioted most fearfully among them, they being less able to endure the severities of a Northern winter. It was during their encampment here that the tracks of the soldiers could be traced by their blood, as they gathered wood to warm their miserable huts. And it is here that Washington is said to have shed tears like a father, while be holding their sufferings, while they gath ered round him and plead for bread and clothing, and he had not the means to furnish them. Yet, although everything seemed so discouraging, it was near here that the " Friend " went home surprised, and exclaiming," the Americans will con quer yet ! the Americans _ will conquer yet, for I heard a whisper in the woods, and I looked and saw their chief upon his knees, and he was asking God to help them." It may be great to lead a powerful army on to victory, but surely it was greater to preserve the shattered remnants of a dis couraged band together, when the enemy was trampling over them, when their Con gress could do nothing for them, when starving ; families at home were weeping for their return, and when there seemed no prospect before them but miserable defeat. Nuanirous graves have recently been opened, and the bodies of many of the of ficers have been removed by their friends to other burying-grounds in their native States. But the poor and obscure soldiers who still remain, have monuments more beautiful than art can form erected over them, for nature has planted hundreds of cedars as a silent tribute to their memory, which have been watered by the pure and generous tears of night, and they are now forming living wreaths of evergreens above their graves. —BIICSANdN From the Life Illustrated WANTED, A WISE. I wish somebody would make me a New ' Year's present of a good wife ! Here I am, nearly thirty-five y'ears old, and a bachelor yet. I'm sure it's not my fault. I don't at all relish coming home at night to a lonely room, and yawning all the evening over a stupid book, without a soul to speak to. I don't fancy darning my own stockings and sewing on my own shirt buttons. Boarding-house life isn't the greatest luxury in the world, especially when the invalid chairs and broken tables in the establishment are pensioned off in your room, and the Biddy uses your hair brush, and annoints herself with your millefleurs ! I'd like a rosy wife, and a cheerful home, as well as anybody. I'd like to think, at my daily labors down-town, of a pair of bright eyes, looking up and down the street to see if I'm coming, of a kettle singing at the fire, and a pair of slippers put down to warm by hands that exactly correspond with the bright eyes. But I don't know where all the good wives have gone ! I have read of them and heard about them, and I know they once existed, but the race is now extinct. I've examined all the young ladies of my acquintance, and not one of them realizes my idea of what a wife should be. 1 want a gentle, loving companion, to sit at my the-side, to cheer my existence, console my sorrows, and share my joys—an econ omical, domestic helpmate, to make a home for me. Ah, if I could only find such a person ! I don't want a wife who goes rustling about in satins and silks—who plays di vinely on the piano, and dont know how to make a shirt—who can embroider on velvet and paint in water colors, and hasn't the least idea of the ingredients necessary to form an apple pie ! I don't want)/ wife who dances the Lan cers with a hole in the toe of her silk stocking. I don't want a wife who is too nerveous " to see to the affairs of her household, but who is perfectly capable of , fashionable dissipations—who goes into strong hysterics because I don't engage a a box at the opera, and shops on Broad l i - way, wasting all my income in " great I bargains !" and I don't want a wife who reads novels and works in worsted, with a poodle dog on her lap, while the meat is burning down stairs, in the kitchen, and the pudding is baked to a cinder! There's the catalogue of the things I dont want, and now I will enumerate the things I do want. I want a neat, stirring little wife, whose nicely fitting dress is made by her own hands—who can make a loaf of bread, roast a turkey, or cook a beefsteak—who regards a hole in her husband's coat as a reflection on her housewifely character, and who can talk about news, and even politics, as well as about new dresses and new fash ions—who is lady in the kitchen as well as in the parlor, and who looks upon a husband as something nearer and dearer than a mere machine to pay her bills, and hold her fan and handkerchief at parties ! Now, Mr. Editor, do you know of any such woman as this ? My female acquain tances are all pretty wax-doll creatures, with white, richly ringed hands and pale faces, who don't know exactly where the kitchen is, and would faint away if you mention a wash tub or a frying pan in their presence: They are very passable draw ing room ornaments, but as to ever becom ing thrifty, creditable wives, one might as well marry the revolving ladies in the windows ou Broadway ! Won't somebody give me a bit of advice? Am I to die an old bachelor, or am I to marry a huge crinoline, an infinitesimal bonnet, and a pair of yellow kid gloves, with a woman inside of 'em ? RALPH REDBLOSSOM. BUDS.-" 1 am afraid," said a friend of. ours interested in fruit growing, "that the open weather, which has prevailed of late, will cause the buds to start too soon for safety, and that there will be another fail ure of the fruit. How illustrative of the experiences of human life ! Many are the buds of hope that are destroyed by the frosts of adver sity, ere the blossoms are fully blown, so that the fruit never comes. See that young mother, with her first born. It is the bud of parental bliss to her. In her dreams of the future, and of the fruit of its grateful love, she is happy as mortal can be. Its every motion and its every tone are watched with delight, and the beams of its countenance are as the rays from angel's eyes to her soul. Would we could insure the unfolding of that bud even into the childhood's blos som, to say nothing of the fruit of a ma turer life. But we cannot ! Ere the spring time is gone, the frost of .disease may have nipped and blasted it utterly, or (what is worse) left it to exist as a do crepid sufferer through long years of ago ny! See that bud of girlish beauty. What promises it gives of fruition, rich and rare, in womanhood. What exultant expecta tion on the part of the doting parents— what admiration on the part of scores of admirers. They impatiently await her escape from the restraints of the school room, and removal of the barriers to her acquaintance and favor. Alas ! they may wait in vain ! That hour may never come. See already the hectic flush upon her young cheek ! It makes her appear all the more beautiful. But it points to the sepulchral vault rather than the bridal hall. Consumption has already been sent, as a messenger of Death himself, to claim another victim. The fruit of her maturity will never come ! Verily, uncertain are all the fruitions promised by the buds of human hope. Q . " A man who can have his corns mashed without grumbling, is undoubtedly possessed of a tolerably good disposition. One man being once at a political meeting, said, in a pleasant manner to a big burly fellow who was standing upon his toe, "My dear sir, are you not a miller ?" "No sir ; why do you ask ?" " Why, sir, the fact is, I thought yoji was a miller, and a very honest one, too, because you have been grinding my corns this half hour without taking toll." " My dear," said a wife to her hus band, " did you ever read of the plague in London? " " No, I don't want to read of it ;- it is enough to have a plague in my .own house." Winter Ploughing. There are many periods during winter, when, from the mildness of the weather, ploughing may be done Therefore, if you have any stiff, clalland, that you desrie to put in crops next spring, you should seize all such favorable seasons to get it broke up. By exposure to frosts when broken up, such lands, if ploughed in the right state become greatly improved, and lose much of their tenacity of character, are more easily cultivated, less expensive to till, besides being rendered better adapted to the pro duction of crops. Bnt this amelioration in texture can only be expected, when the soil, at the time of its being ploughed is neither too wet nor too dry. All, especially strong loans and clays, should be ploughed in the medium state between wet and dry, or when they are comparatively mellow, slightly moist, and least cohesive. When clay soils are perfectly dry, they are so hard and rebellious, as to be uncon querable by the plough; and when deci dedly wet, they are so sticky and plastic, as to be workable by ploughing only into masses of plaster, with innumerable recep tacles for water, utterly incapable of subse quent pulverization, and certain to settle into hard clods, on which no farm crop can grow. The furrows should be made to lap at an angle of about 45 deg, so as to expose the greatest surface to the action of the frost. Thus, if you plough 6 inches deep, the fur row should be 9 inches wide : if the depth of the furrow be 8 inches, then the furrow should be 12 inches wide. In the spring when the ground is dry enough to bear the team, without danger of being injured by poaching, it should be rolled and then har rowed with a heavy two or three-horse har row, until the soil be as thoroughly pulver ized, as from its nature it is susceptible. We go in for thorough tilth : for as per fect sub-division of the particles of soil as posible, and for deep ploughing, having no fears about, a few inches of "poison-till." THE BRIDE.—She stood deside the altar when she'was but sixteen. She was in love. Her destiny rested on a creature as deli cate, and who had known as little of the world as herself. She looked lovely as she pronounced the vow. Think of a vow from auburn hair, eyes and pouting lips, only six teen years old. She stood by the wash-tub when her twenty-fifth birth day arrived. The hair, the lips, the eye were not calculated to excite the heart. Five cross young ones were about the house crying—some break ing things, and one urging the necessity of the immediate supply of food. She stop ped in despair and sat down, and tears trickled down her once plump and ruddy cheek. Alas ! Nancy, early marriages are not the dodge. Better enjoy youth at home and hold lovers at a proper distance until you have music, limb and heart enough to face a frowning world and family. If a chap really cares for you, he can wait for two or three years, make presents, take you to concerts, and so on until the time comes. Early marriages and early cab bages are tender productions. A SAMPSON Iv SHACKESS.—The Mon roe (Wis.) Press says they have a prisoner in the Green county jail, by the name of dam. Whitham, who has been amusing himself and astonishing the jailor, with his feats of strength. Unaided by a sin gle instrument, he broke a set of the strongest patent handkuffs, rent the shack els from his feet, tore off several locks from the door of his cell, broke a large iron door which served as an additional fasten ing, and passing out into the hall of the jail, exercised himself in the satisfactory mysteries of a pigeon-wing ' A night or two since he concluded to give another entertainment, which consisted of breaking two of the iron bars of the grates of his cell door, but his performance being unsea sonably checked by the entrance of his keeper, he retired from the scene in evi dent confusion.
