TEE NOD MITT Or LABOR. --We have often
wondered at the foolish ideas some folks have
about “labor." We know certain individuals
in Huntingdon, who idle their time, about the
corners, loafing in the stores and shopstwho
either consider labor as degrading, or are too
lazy to arouse themselves ; they consider labor
an evil I Toil and labor I They have built all
the.pnlaces and lordly buildings of the earth
they hove constructed the ships that plough
the ocean, and the swift locomotive that boars
your commerce from Stuto to State; they have
stretched the wire and the cable, and sent
messages et fire around the globe. These are
only a few of the physical triumphs of toil and
labor. In the intellectual uttd mor,tl world,
how grand, how noble, how sublime their
achievements I Aided by these.

Pauzzx FLEsir.---Mr, A. Bronson, of
Meadville l's., says, from fifteen years,
experience, he finds that Indian meal poul
tices, covered with young llyson tea, sof
tened with hot water, and laid over burns
or frozen flesh, as hot as can be borne, will
relieve the pain in five minutes. I f blis

generally sufficient to effect a cure.
Picture of 11. B. Senators,
The Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Commercial, looked in upon
the Senate the other day and thus notices
some of the distinguished gentleman who
hold seats in that body :
Gen. Cass is a ponderous old fellow,
with a massive head which he covers with
a rusty old brown wig, and keeps opening
and shutting his mouth and sucking his
breath between his teeth as if he constant
ly tasted something disagreeable. John
M. Clayton is more enormous than Gen.
Cass ; and his face though fat, is turignifi.
rent. He is the best looking man in
the Senate, and laughs heartily at intervals
of from two to five minutes. His hair
is white as snow. and his big eyes glisten
all the time with intelligence and humor.
Seward is Amass stalwart in appearance
ns a poir of tonges. He does not weigh
more than an hundred pounds. His hair
' is short and looks dead, and his eyes are
hidden behind a pair of splendid gold spec.
taeles. His face is thin, pale and wrink
led, but its lines are firm, and he appears
to be what he is—a man of restless and
intriguing intellect. Senator Butler, of
South Carolina, is the thickest at the waist.
oband though not comfortably heavy. His
face is bright, and his hair, which he
wears I eng end in singular confusion, is
white as newly washed lamb's
wool.--
lisle's appearance indicates that he had
been fed liberally on fat pork nod butter
milk. Pugh looks younger when ninon g
the old bald, or white headed and big bel
lied Senators than I ever before saw him
A majority of . the Senators have naked
patches on top of their heads, and quite
half of them are the,opposite of slender.—
They chew tobacco very much as other
folks, so far as L could discover, and its
! inediately after adjournment, several of
them lit cigars, and leaning back appeared
to feel comfortable.
