Reflect Before .Acting
The worst thing a man can do is to act
without reflection. Your hasty person is
generally a fool. He is always in hot water
himself, or plunging his friends in for him :
he cannot be trusted ; with the best inten
tions often nevertheless does wrong. You
miglaras well throw lots as take his advice;
for his decision is never worth the breath ex
pended in giving it.
If a man looks back over his life, he will
generally.discover that his errors have arisen
from a want of reflection. He has entered
intos partnership without properly consid
ering the character of his associate, the cap
ital required, or the fitness of the company
for the work to be done. He has purchased
a farm without duly examining the soil, its
vicinity to market, or the amount required
for necessary repairs. He has begun a busi
ness without measuring his means to the end.
He has married a wife in a sudden whim,
without studying her disposition or acquire
ments. He has embarked in a speculation,
without fully counting the cost. In short,
whatever has turned out ill will usually be
traceable to an omission on his part to proper
reflection.
Municipalities, commonwealths, and na
tions are as liable to involve themselves in
difficulties as individuals; and, therefore, re
flection is as indispensable to them,' before
acting, as to private persons. It is easy *to
embark in improvements, and even to pay
for them in loans; but when pay-day comes,
it is sometimes hard to meet the creditor ;
and even many a corporation wishes that it
had thought more seriously before it was too
late. It is not difficult to plunge a nation in
to war but it is an Herculean_task often to
bring about a peace.
Young men, when starting life, especially
in this "fast" age, are too apt to aim for
character of doing things quickly. They for
get that, unless things are well done, or a
project well considered, their quickness is
more apparent than real. Davy Crockett
said a thing as wise as the wisest of Bacon's
aphorisms, when he gave the honest advice,
" Be sure you're right, then go ahead."
Cheap Pleasures.
Did you ever study the cheapness of plea
sure 1 Do you know how little it takes to
make a man happy? Such trifles as a pen
ny, or a smile, do the work. There are two
or three boys passing along—give them each
a chesnut, and how smiling they look—they
will not be cross for some time. A poor
widow lives in a neighborhood who is the
mother of a half a dozen children—send
them a half a peck of sweet apples, and they
all will be happy. A child has lost his ar
row—a word to him and he mourns sadly ;
help him to find it, or make him another, and
how quickly will the sunshine play upon
his sober face. A boy has as much as he
can do to pile up a load of wood—assist him
a few moments, or speak a pleasant word to
him, and he forgets his toil, and works away
withaut minding it. Your apprentice has
broken a mug, or cut the vest too large, or
slightly injured a picee of work; say " you
scoundrel I" and he feels miserable—remark,
"I am sorry," and he will try to do better.—
You employ a man, pay him cheerfully, and
speak a pleasant word to him, and he leaves
your house with a contented heart, to light
up his own hearth with smiles and gladness.
As you pass along the street, you meet a fa
miliar face—say "Good morning," as though
you felt happy, and it will work admirably
in the heart of your neighbor.
Pleasute is cheap—who will not bestow it
liberally If there are smiles, sunshine, and
flowers all about, let us not grasp them with
a miser's fist, and lock them up in our hearts.
No. Rather let us take them and scatter
them about us—in the cot of the window,
among tbe groups of children in the crowded
mart, where men of business congregate, in
our families, and every where. We can
make the wretched happy—the discontented,
cheerful—the afflicted, resigned—at exceed
ingly cheap rates. Who will refuse to do it?
No Sabbath
In a "Prize Essay on the Sabbath," writ- -
ten by a journeyman printer in Scotland,
there occurs the. following passage :
"Yoke fellow ! think how the abstraction
of the Sabbath would. hopelessly enslave the
working classes, with which we are identi
fied. Think of labor thus going on in one
monotonous and continuous and eternal cy
cle—lirabsforever, on .the rack . ; the fingers
forever playing, the eyeballs forever strain
ing, the brow forever , sweating, the foot for
ever plodding, the brain forever throbbing,
the shoulders forever drooping, the loins for
ever aching and the restless mind foreever
Eoheming,
Think of the beauty it would efface ; of
the merry heartedness it would extinguish ;
,
of the giant , strength it would tame ; of the
resources of nature that it would exhaust ;
of the aspirations it would crush ; of the
sickness it Would breed ; of the projects it
would wreck of the groans it would extort;
of the live -it would immolate ; and of the
cheerlessgraves that it would prematurely
dig See thcm Militig and mbilin , r P; sweat
ing and fretting, grinding, and hewing, wea
ving and .spinning, sowing, and gathering,
mowing and reaping, razing and building ;
digging and planting, unloadincr-and storing,
striving and struggling—in the garden an%
in : ake,aeld, in the granary and in the mill,
in the.warehouse and. in the , shop, on the
.mountain and in the ditch, on the roadside
and in the wood, in the city and in the coun-
.-try, on the sea arid on the shore, on the earth,
irothe data .of.brighiness and of gloom.—
Whit: a picture would the world present if
we had na Sabbath !."

The nuntingdon and Broad Top Moun

spectfully call the attention of Capi
talists and those having money to in
vest, to their Bonds now being issued.
rTHE entire length of their road and branch
es.l now under contract is thirty five miles,
the grading and masonry of more than two
thirds of which is finished, and the balance rap.
idly progressing toward completion. A mort
gage of the entire road and its equipments, and
on two thousand acres of coal land owned by
the Company, clear of incumbrance, has been
executed to Jesse Godley of Philadelphia,
Thomas E. Franklin, Esq., of Lane aster, and
H. Easton, of Franklin County, as Trustees
for the security of the bond holders. This is
the first and we expect it to be the only issue of
bonds by the Company ; and the Stockholders
will have, upon the completion of the road
which the negotiation of. the bonds will secure,
property as security to, the amount of a million
and a quarter or a million and a half of dollars,
say three times the amount of the issue. We
,expect after the road is in operation one year to
pass down three hundred thousand tons of coal,
per annum, and within five years near double
that amount. Our bonds -are issued in sums of
five hundred dollars each, bearing seven per cent
Interest, with coupons attached, and form a very
desirable investment for Guardians, Executors,
&c., as by detaching a coupon, the half yearly
interest can be collected through the nearest
bank.
The bonds will be ready for delivery at the
office of the Treasurer, on or after the first day
of October next. Below is a statement of the
sources from which the Company expect to de
rive revenue.

Eloctro-IVEag , let :pightning Rods
A FTER many years' close investigation
11_ and numerous experiments, the Pattentee
sakes pleasure in informing the public that he
has arrived at the true principles of protecting
families, dwellings and property frem the de
structive influence of Lightning. The cal
amities that every City, Town, Village and
Country falls victim to annually, through the
gross negligence of its inhabitants, is beyond
calculation, especially when the remedy is so
easy to obtain--this is found in Armitage's
Patent Magnetic Lightning Rods, and in
this alone. This Rod has been examined by
the most scientific gentlemen in the world—
Professors IVl'Murtrie, Johnson, Wallor and
many others that have examined them, recom
mend and speak of' them in the highest terms
of approbation, and have pronounced them the
only safe rods in use in this or any other coun
try, for the protection of Lives and Property.—
One advantage is to divide and throw back a
part of the electric fluid harmless to the clouds;
in time of a stroke this enables the rod to con
duct that portion of fluid that belongs to the
earth without the slightest danger of leaving
the conductor. This rod has many other ad
vantages over the old one._ The only place of
manutlicturing is in Vine St., 3 doors above
Twelfth, Philadelphia, where all persons arc
respectfully invited to call and examine kir
