Persevere.
BY B. P. GRAHAM.
Yes, persevere? There' work to do ;
" IVhy stand ye idle all the day ?"
Be moving do not liDger here,
A loitering on Life's Highway,
Natvre's busy morn and even
Noon or night sky dark or clear :
Ever teaching you this lesson,
'". a. - Persevere !
Push onward upward higher still !
And let your aim be to ascend
The ladder reaching up to Fame,
Nor tremble should it sometimes bend
Be your purpose pure and holy
Good to man your object here,
And you'll reach the height before you
Persevere I
No matter what jour calling is
There's something always to be done ;
Determine that yon will complete
The tedious task you have begun.
Listen to the voice of wisdom
Speaking from past ages clear ;
Work and ' live, or play and perish
Persevere !
i ' '
Be kind unto y our fellow men ;
In raising him who lowly lies,
You' raise yourself to honest fame,
And win a name that never dies ;
Labor with your might, while able.
Soon deep furrows will appear
In that face so fair and cheerful
Persevere !
Old time with fmger erer true ;
Points to your journey's end the grave,
And warns you zca'oUBly to strive
Your own and others souls to save.
Stand not idle, then, my brother;
Do not longer trifle here ;
Every moment, now, is precious
Persevere 1
Let ns dive Thanks.
BY ELIZA COOK,
Let us give thanks, with grateful scul.
To Him that sendeth all;
To Him who bids the planets roll,
And sees a "sparrow fall."
Though grief and tears may dim our joys,
And care and strife arrest,
'Tis man, loo often, that alloys
The lot his Maker blest:
While sunshine lights the boundless sky.
And dew drops feed the sod
While stars and rainbows live on high
Let us give thanks to God.
We till the earth in labor's health.
Wo plant the ocorn cup;
The fields are crowned with golden wealth
The green tree tpringelh up;
The sweet, eternal waters gush
From fountain and from vale:
The vinyards blush with purplo flush.
The yellow hop leaves trail;
And while the Harvest flings its gold,
And cowslips deck the sod
While limpid streams are clear and cold.
Let us givs thanks to God.
The flower yields its odor brealh.
As gentle winds go past:
The grasshopper that lurks beneath
Chirps merrily and fast;
Tho ring dove coos upon the tpray,
The larks full anthem nour:
j ,
The bees start with a jocund lay.
The waves sing on the shore;
Hoannas fill the wood and wild.
Where human step ne'er trod;
And nature like an unweaned chilJ,
Smiles on its parent, God.
Say, Brothers, shall the bird and bloom
Thus teach, and teach in vain?
Shall all the lovo-roys that illume,
Be lost in clouds of pain?
Shall hearts ba dead and vision blind
To all that mercy deals?
Shall soul and reason fail to find
The shrine where instinct kneels?
Ah, no! while glory lights the sky.
And beauty paints the sod
While stars and rainbows live on high,
Let us give thanks to God.
Breach of Promise Important Decision.
For the benefit of our unmarried friends
of both sexes, to whom a right understand
ing of the law may be important, we copy
the following from an opinion of Judge
Black recently affirmed by the Supreme
Court of Pennsylvania, per Coulter, Jus
tice, Dowey vs. M'Millin, 8 Barr, 160.
"If a man offers to marry a woman or
promises to do it, he is not bound to com
ply with it, unless she agree to accept
him. It takes two to make a marriage
contract as well as any other bargain.
Where a man has a contract of marriage
with a woman and merely puts it oil, and
she becomes impatient, she cannot drag
him into court and demand damages, un
less she has formally offered to perform
the contract on her part, and lie dishonest
ly refuses, and so puts an end to the con
trac;; because perchance he would prefer
marriage to the suit, and he ought to have
a chance to make a choice."
H

his friend, burns the golden thread that
bwlsthr-ir hearts together J. Taylor.
Painter. Mai. Noah
relates a funny anecdote of the celebrated
painter Jarvis, who painted the portrait of
Commodore Perry, now in the Governor's
Room of the City Hall in New York. It
appears that when the Commodore came
to take his first and second sitting, he ap
peared to be drooping and downcast, la
boring under some depression of mind,
which deprived him of all animation.
The artist, with pallet in hand, looked at
the commodore in every direction, not
knowing where to begin. He paused,
looked, laid down his pallet, took it up a
gain, and appeared to bejjunable to com
mence. Finally, starting up violently, he
seized a chair and assumed a threatening
position. The commodore jumped up and
asked the meaning of this violence.
I intend to kill you,' said, the painter,
with a furious look. The commodore
started back, his eve flashing fire, his
- r -
whole countenance animated; and put him
self in a defensive attitude. 'There, that
will do,' said Jarvis, coolly. 'Just the
exDression I wanted. Sit down and let
me begin.'
The commodore saw at once into the
feint, smiled, sat down, and we have from
the pencil of Jarvis one of the finest por
traits ever painted.
The Roman Republic
The Roman Republic is not yet official
lv recognized bv the United States
thouffh for what reason it is not easy to un
derstand. It has been the policy and
practice of our government to recognize
the government de facto of those countries
that are in diplomatic correspondence with
us, as the legitimate power. Following
this rule, the American minister to r ranee
hastened to recognize the provisional gov
ernment of that country, even before the
turmoil of the revolution had subsided.
Our Charge at Rome should have taken
an early opportunity to recognize the new
government there. His act would have
been approved as heartily as was that of
our Minister to r ranee. An envoy Irom
the Romans has arrived in this country,
and will, we trust, be accredited without
delay. Scott 8 JVeekly.
From the Boston Post
Beautiful Allusion-
The parents of Lamartine were married
at the very commencement of the French
revolution. Thev loved each other devo
tedly; and in the quiet of love and domes
tic seclusion, they ceased to regard the for-
gotten tnunaer-cioua mat novereu over
them. In allusion to their situation and
feelings, the son, in his 'Confidences,'
page 29, eloquently says 'I remember
once to have seen the branch of a willow
which had been torn by the tempests
hand lrom the parent trunk floating in the
morning light upon the angry surges of the
overflowing beme. On it a female night
ingale still covered her nest, as it drifted
down the foaming stream; and the male
on the wing followed the wreck, which
was bearing away the object of hie love.'
Lr 'A one dollar note, changing hands
two hundred times, and shaved at half a
cent, will have paid upon it one dollar
or, in other words, the holders through
whose hands it successively passes, will
have been taxed one dollar to keep it in
circulation.
ISNo man should be -o much taken
up in the search of truth, as thereby to
neglect the more necessary duties of active
life; for after all is done, it is the action
ouly that gives a true value and commen
dation to virtue!. Cicero.
EF5 If a man does not make new ac
quaintances as he advances through life,
he will soon find himself alone. A man
should keep his friendships in constant re
pair. Johnston.
GF A verdant youth was recently dis
missed by a young damsel, on the ground
that she had been advised to avoid any
thing green during the prevalence of ihe
Cholera.
The following verdict was given by an
eastern coroner's jury.
'We believe that the deceased came to
his death by falling from the top of the
mainmast on the bulwarks; fell overboard
and drowned; washed ashore and froze to
death; and then carried to the watch house
and eaten up alive by rats.'

Farm aud Road Horses .
Mr. Editor. There is nothing like the
attention bestowed upon the breeding of
Brood farm and road horses that there
should be. 1 mean the horse of all work,
one that possesses requisite strength, com
bined with endurance and docility, with a
walk oi lour miles an hour, and an easy
trot over a good level road of seven miles
an hour. I have occasionally seen match
horses,, with which one could plow two
acres easily in a day, and do any kind of
farm work m proportion, such as hauling
manure, wood, transporting produce, &c,
at the same time making a handsome ap
pearance in a buggy or carnage, perlorm-
mg their nine or ten miles an hour without
much fatigue, or fifty miles in one day,
and were also easy, under the saddle.
Such animals, however, are rare; yet they
should not be, for with proper attention
bestowed upon the breeding of horses,
farmers might generally as easily produce
those I have described as the miserable
animals that now pervade the country and
are hardly worth the cost of rearing. If
one half the attention that has been given
to the rearing of the race-horse, had been
devoted to the roadster, all this might have
been accomplished. For stock, in place
of the little piney woods studs now preva
lent, and which are not much better than
billy goats, we must substitute the good
blooded trotting horse that is made for ser
vice.
We do not want a horse with a head as
large as a flour barrel; legs as large as mill
posts; a back as long as a fence rail, and
thin as a shad. We want a horse about
fourteen or fifteen hands high, with a small
head and short back and rump; never
mind if it is drooping, nor if his rib touch
his hip bone, with a small lean leg, that
when he lifts it vou can see the frog of
the foot, and when he puts the foot down,
it will pass the track of the fore foot. Not
short steps that you can travel in the shade
of an oak tree all day. Boicen s tar
mer.
Working in Drought.
Many are opposed to working corn du
ring periods of drought, under the impres
sion that, when thus worked it causes it to
I fire. Now, if corn be worked in dry
weather with the plough, which necessari
ly cuts up and tears its lateral and fibrous
roots, the probability is that the blades
will wither and burn up, not because the
earth has been stirred, but because the
plants have been unnaturally deprived of
their means of supplying themselves with
food and moisture from the earth, and be
cause by the absence of rain, their power
of reaction has been suspended, and they
cannot re-supply themselves with a new
series of feeders. Thus believing, we hes
itate not in advancing the opinion, that
stirrino; the earth with the cultivator is
decidedly beneficial, in even the dry est
periods, as all such loosenings of the soil
serve to prepare it to absorb and condense
the dews, and dispense their refreshing in
fluences to the roots of the growing plants.
If the dews fall upon a hard surface, the
sun exhales them before they can possibly
do any benefit; whereas, if the surface be
open and in fine tilth, as a necessary con
sequence, much wilTsink into the earth be
fore the evaporating power of the sun's
rays can disadvantageously operate, and
thus will a moderate degree of moisture be
preserved in the earth at a time when it is
most needed. w
Choosing a Dorse.
There is much pleasure and profit in
the service of a good horse, but very little
of either in a bad one. There are many
mean horses that make a good appearance
when taken from the hands of a jockey.
In purchasing a horse, then, trust not to
the sellers words; let your own judgment
or that of a friend, be chiefly relied on.-
See that he has good fore feet and joints
and that he stands well on his legs. See
that his fore teeth shut even; for many
horses have the under jaw the shortest
these will trrow Door at crass. See that
his hair is short and fine; for this denotes a
good horse. Observe his eyes, that they
are clear and free from blemish that he
is not moon-eyed, or white-eyed; for such
are apt to start in the night. A large, ha
zel-colored eye is the best.
Look at his knee; see that the hair or
skin is not broke, for this denotes a stum
bier. Take care that his wind is good
for a trial of this, let him be fed on good
hay for twenty-four hours, take hin to
water, and let him drink his fill, placing
him with his head the lowest; if then he
will hreathe free, there is no danger. See
that his countenance is bright and cheerful
this is an excellent mirror to discover his
goodness in. If his nostrils are broad, it
is a sign that he is well winded; narrrow
nostrils, the contrary.
See that his spirits is good, but that he
is gentle and easily governed; not inclined
to start. In travelling, mind that he lifts
his feet neither too high nor too low; that
ne does not interfere or overreach, and that
he carries his hind legs the widest. See
that he is well-ribbed back, and not high
boned. The size may be determined by
the purchases. Age from 5 to 10 is the
best. There are many tricks practised by
jockeys to make horses appear vounz, but
jit is not consistent with the size of my
book to detect' them; all I would say is,
that horse's teeth, when young, are wide,
white, and even; the inside of their month
is fleshy, and there lips hard and firm.
On the contrary, the mouth of an old horse
is lean above and below; the lips are soft
and easily turned up; their teeth grow
onger, narrower and ot a yellw color.
GTLocust Groves, says one of our ex
changes, may easily be grown on knobs
of hills, or the poorest soil, and in five
years will yield per acre annually, from
$5 to $10 worth of post timber, produce
more grass than it would without trees,
and every year improve the soil. . On
Long Island locust groves have been grown
up in 38 years to be worth $300 per acre.
We have been urging our. farmers, and
especially those occupying poor lands to
cultivate the locust but as yet out lew
have done it.
