There's a language 'that's mute, there's a silence that speaks, There is something that cannot be told, There are words that can only be read in the cheeks And thoughts but the eyes can unfold. There's a look so expressive, so timid, so kind, So conscious; so quick to impart, Though dumb, in an instant it speaks out the mind And strikes in an instant the heart. This eloquent silence, this converse of soul', ": In vain we attempt to suppress, More prompt it appears from the wish to control, More apt the fond truth to express. And oh! the delights in the features that shine, The raptures the bosom that melt, When blest with each other this converse divine Is mutually spoken and felt I TSC EL L ANY. SLANDER.—Show us an individual, ex empt from the poisonous'breath of theslan derer, and we will show you something new, under the sun. The seeds of this vice have been strewed broadcast over the earth, desolating families and neighbor hoods, and blasting much that is lovely with the mildew of 'death. No character is so pure, no talents so distinguished, no post of honor so elevated, as.to be exempt from its contaminating influence.. All have felt its withering breath. As men ; immortal men—children of one Father— how assiduously should Ave:labor to crush this - besetting sin, and try to build up rath er than destroy the character of our fellow creatures. When a neighbor suffers we really feel the effects of thatinjury, although unnoticed by us. There is a connecting link bet Ween man and man, which cannot be tarnished or broken without affecting the whole commupity in a greater or less degree. Debaise our families—our neigh bors-our villages—and the curse is on ourselves, and on our children when we aro gone: Elevatebuild up one another —and virtue will flourish, and peace and pleasantness will attend closely upon your ste,s. 4 1 CAN'T, DO IT."7—Yes you can. Try —try hard, try ofton—and you will ac complish it. Yield to every discouraging circumstance, and you will do nothing worthy of a great mind.' Try .and you will do wonders. You will be astonished at yourself—your advancement in whatev er, you undertake. ..ssl can't" )las ruined many a man ; has been the tomb of bright egpectatiOn and ardent hope. Let "I will tiv," be your motto in whatever you un dertake, and if you press onward, you will steadily and surely .accomplish your object, and come off victorious. Try— keep trying—and you, are• made. for this world. . I was walking with 'Wilberforce.. in his verandah, says a friend, watehing, for the opening of a night-blooming. Ceres. As we stood in expectation, it suddenly burst wide open before us. It reminded me as we admired its beauty, of the mysteries of divine Providence first breaking on the glorified eye, when they shall fully unfold to the view, and appear as beautiful as theyare complete. - • ISIBLE'FOR TJ U ARMY.—We are gratified to learn that the army in Texas .applied to_ the American Bible Society for the Scriptures — and that four thousand copies of the New Testament have been forwarded for theii-use. - Wit is 'desirable to inCuleale the kive of peace among sol diers, the New Testament is the best ofull books'for them. ...A YouNo.SrA =krt.—When the son of the gallant Hoe, ..who lost his arm in ,one of the engagements, aylad twelve years . of, age, was told of the serious wound - his father Itad received,'his oyes filled w' after a few moments silence i . inquired f his tather,would b. tho arnay.on that account; the en.to him was, not unless it. should be, his wish. ‘` 2 <know he will not desire it,": was the instant reply: 4 ler when ails wounded arm is healed. he eau pet.hie swprikon ate oh cr chic and draw it wlib•hls left kind iltiebettAbliin-.—fhe'"General Order." the aanw rules and .regulations of dill 011ie Y9/VetPtt/231cttr.911,11irhtd0 the Nations of elpe and sugar are to supply " the place of ligtior tions,4 TAi4 . tells well for the hold ivhielt 'renTeranacfprineirles,are making upon alriictiens of CERTIFICATE OF CHARACTER.--4 Hoo sier was called upon the standout West, to testify to the character of a brother Hoosier. The testimony was as follows: "How , long have you known Bill Whack ?" "Ever since- he-was born."-- "What is his general character ?" "Letter-A, No. I—bove par a great ways I judge." "Would you believe him on oath ?" , "Yes, sir-ee! on or off, or any otner way, I conclude." . „ What, in your opinon, are his qUaliti cations as to a good character ?” “He's the best shot on our prairies, or in the. woods. He can shave the eye-wink ors of a wolf as far as a shootin iron'll car ry a ball. He cap 'drink a quart of grog any day, and chews tobacker like a hoss." TOO GOOD TO DE LOST.-A young man at a social party was urged to sing a song. lie replied that he would first tell a story, and then if they persisted in their demand he would endeavor to execute a song.— When a boy he said he, took lessons in singing, and on Sunday morning he went into his father's garret to practice alone by himself. When in full play he was sud: denly sent for by the old gentleman. "This is pretty conduct," said the father, "pretty employment for the ,son of pious parents, to be sawing boards on the Sabbath morning loud enough, to be heard by all the neighbors. Sit down, and s take your book." The young man was excused from singing the 'Proposed song. TliE CAT AND THE MOUSE.-33 good as ff it were Xsop.- 7 The Nantucket Is lander says the folloWing story was told by a reformed inebriate as an apology for much of the folly of drunkards: "A mouse running about a brewery, happening to fall-into a vat of beer, was in imminent of drowning, and appealed to a cat to help him out. The cat replied : it is a foolish request, for as soon as I get you out I shall cat you. The mouse re plied, that fate would be better than to be drowned in beer. - The cat lifted him out, but the fumes of the beer caused: puss to sneeze, and the mouse took refuge in his hole. The cat called on the mouse to come out, "You, sir, did you not promise,me that I should eat you?' "Ah," replied mousy, "but yOu know I was in liquor at the time." A LAND OF LIBERTV.—An Irishman who had left his native country mid cnnelit 4411 UOyhMil i n Alllcrica, because it was a land of liberty, was attacked on his first ar rival in December, by a furious mastiff.— He stooped to pick up a stone- to defend himself, but found it frozen tight. • "By my snwl," says Pat, "now is not this a swate land of liberty, where the dogs arc let loose and stones arc tied fast? KILL OR CURE.—“Toin, a word with you." "He quick then, for I'm in a hur ry." What did you give your sick horse t'other day?" '".A. pint o' turpentine."- -John hurries home, and adMinisters the same dose to a favorite hunter, which, strange to say, drops off defunct in half an hour. His opinion of his friend Tom's veterinary ability is somewhat staggered. He meets him the next day. "Well, Tom!" "Well, John, what is it ?"• "I gave my horse a pint o' turpentine, and it killed him as dead as Julius Caesar." "Sis't dit! mine." 'T'HINK'S HE WON'T ENLIST.—The edi tor of the Weekly Messenger, published at Exeter,N. H. says that ever since the is suing o the - Proclamation of Gov. Steele his mind has been exceedingly harrassed with the question, whether or not he should enlist. He had dreamed of honor and glory, but looking upow,his wife and little ones, he concluded to o'remaiu at home and print newspapers. " , A wise resolution. A very singular transaction has taken place at Frankfort, Ky. ,So singular in deed; as to be without a parallel in this country we believe. At the June term, of Franklin county court ln 1845, the justices removed the jailer and appointed another. The displaced man, with the aid of friends, took an appeal from this action of ,the coun ty Court up to the. Court of Appeals which, after a hearing, issued its mandate direct ing his restoration. This the County Court refused to do, and the Justices, live in number, were cited to appear before the Court of Appeal, to show cause why they did not enter and carry into effect the mandate sent to them, and the five refusing to appear, they. were thrown- into prison. What will be the finale of the matter ..we cannot say. The Legislature has interfered in the matter; and will settleit of course.; Benjamin Flagg, •of Worcester, Mass. was so badly hurt on the railroad as the ling the Pine Meadow road, ming; that he died in a short a- bottle of Bum in* his False friendship, like the ivy, decays and ruins the it embraces;, but true friend..., ship giveS.new, life and animation to:. the object suppurtsr..-I,lltrron., 'Of 'what rruit is eiderninde Pon t know,` ”What a ' StUpid boy !-- What did - yoii' - •get when you robbed wid ow.

The editor of the Y Tribune writing from Wu4hington tells the following anecdote, which has been heretofore referred to but not with such ininutenes Speaking of 54 40, an anecdote 'is cur rent in political circles here whiCh is not so well told in the newspaper version, and which can only be appreciated by those who know the ardent and intrepid subject of it. As the unwritten story goes, Sena tor H who iwamong the most reso lute and honest of the 54 40s, hearing ug ly rumors that Mr. Polk was 'caving on the Oregon Question, resolved to go up and tell him plainly that he must stand straight up to the line of 54 40 or he would 'be put where 'the hand of resurrection could never reach him.' So resolved, he walked up to and into the Palace, and deeming all formalities needless strode straight to the President's private room.— As he stepped familiarly in, what was his amazement to see there the President in close consultation with Messrs. Calhoun, Lewis, Haywood, N. C. and two or three members of the Cabinet.. The 54 40 Sen ator stood transfixed . a moment, And at length found voice to exclaim, The. COll7l - sold, by—." Without farther sal utation or waiting to receive any he whirl ed on his heel, and was oil in au instant.. I think he has not been at the White House since. A NEC D 071: OF GEN EnAL TA FLOM—A COMM. pomlent of the Pennsylvania Inquirer relates the following anecdote of the commander of the "Ar tily of Invasion :'' "This motility , I heard a little incident respecting Gen. Taylor, which, at the pres ent time, will be interesting. During the Florida campaign, a certain • young officer, after receiving his commission, was or dered to join the army in that quarter.— Ilis first duty was of course to report him self to Gen. Taylor. After a very tedious journey, however, through the woods, our officer arrived at'a small shanty called a tavern, about 50 miles from head quarters where he thought proper to stay three days. There were only two visitors there, besides himself. One of them, on oldish, shabby looking man; with a black hat, minus a part of the crown, and a piece of twine for a ribband, was very inquisitive, and a mong othei• things, asked our officer, what excuse he intended to make for his delay in reporting himself to the General. 'o,' said the Officer; 'they say Taylor is a very easy old soul, and I can 412 C;IST -""". linaii Werner,' , going to bed that night, the officer asked the landlord who that impudent, in quisitive old fellow was? , Why,'• said the host, 'don't you know Gen. Taylor?' A bout an hour afterwards, at midnight, the tramp of a horse's feet was heard, making large tracks towards head quarters." THE LICENSE QUESTION IN PENNSTL VANIA.—The citizens of New York State have just decided in a majority of the towns and counties to grant no licenses to sell intoxicating drinks. The same ques tion is tif be decided in Pennsylvania, for at the last session of the Legislature a bill Nims passed, giving to the citizens of the following counties the right to vote for or against license's, at the annual election for constables and other township officers : Chester, Susquehanna, Wyoming, Butler, Erie, Delaware Tioga, Bradford, Craw ford, McKean, Elk, Warren, Fayette, Al legheny, Mercer, Clearfield, Washington, Beaver, and the township and Borough of Mt. Pleasant in the county of Wayne, and the boreugh of Lewisburg, in Uuipn coun ty. There is no doubt from the wide spread feeling in favor of the temperance cause, that the result in these counties will be the same as in New York. . . WIIAT rt. CosTs.—Benjamin F. Butler, Esq., late Attorney General of the U. S., has computed that the loss to the U. States from the use of intoxicating drinks, 'is one hundred and 'fifty millions of dollars annu ally ; portion of the State of N., y:.eight een millions. The Mil. Mr. EVerett, late Minister to Great Britain, computes that the use. of alcoholic beverages has cost the U. States, directly, in ten years, ,000,- 000,000 ; has bitrned or otherwise destroy ed ss,ooo,ooo'more di property ; has de stroyed three hundred thousand lives; sent one hundred and fifty thousand persons to our prisons, and one hundredthousend chil dren to the poor house ;, has caused fifteen hundred murders, two thonsand suicides ; and has bequeathed to the country, one million of orphan children ETRIBUTION.•-•-The reader will recol lect that a few months ago, the French in Al giers destroyed a large number . of Arabs, by suffocating them in a cavern in which they bad taken 'refuge.

An extract from the office of the Lex ington Express, - rFceived by the Southern .mail,_.brings important intelligence from Santa Fe. It states that Mr. Houck had arrived at Independence, Missouri, from Santa Fe having made the trip in twenty days. He is said to haVe brought intelli gence that the authorities at Santa Fe were fortifying that city. In addition to 2000 men then under arms, the Governor had made a requisition for 5000 more from Chihuahua. Every third man in Santa IFe and its vicinity was to be drafted to bear arms in its defence, and provisions were being laid in as preparations for a seige. Mr. Amick, it is added, expresses the opinion that Col. Kearney ought not to take less than five hundred men on his ex pedition against New Mekieo. The St. Louis Era, of 18th, says that a number of wagons, loaded with provisions and aninnition, have already started on their way across the prairies. Col. Kear ney intends to send them ahead as fast as be call get them. More than two hundred dragoons have taken up their line of march. The volunteers at Fort Leavenworth are going through daily drills and exerci ses, under the direction of the regular offi cers of the army, and are said to be im proving rapidly. The Indian volunteers have been mustered into the service, and also. thirty companies of Illinois volun teers. Amon , " the reports of the day is one that if Santa 'Anna, who at the latest dates was at Havana, should he called to the Presidency of Mexico, he will carry out an arrangement which is alledged to have been made through one of his agents, with the Government at Washington. This arrangement, it is said, embraces ; (list:— peace with this country on the part of Alex- . ico ; second—the acknowledgement of the Rio Grande as the southern boundary of the United States—and, third, the acquisi tion of California by purchase. CAssFs M. CLAr.—.This gentleman, in an address to his readers,staten the motives which. have induced him to volunteer for the Mexican war. • He states that he de nounced the annexation of Texas as a bold and flagrant schethe, and believes that war could have been prevented. But as the One act has been perfected and the .other submit to the law of the land, and give the government their support. PATRIOTIC GERMAN'S IN TENAS.—Among the many pleasing incidents of patriotism exhibited in the ;ewer excitement," the conduct of a large number of German emiL. grants in Thias deserves particular notice. Upon the arrival at Galveston of the news that Gen. Taylor wished for reinforce men ts, one hundred and fifty Gernian em igrants; who had been in the country but three peeks, organized themselves into two companies, and started for ,Gen. Taylor's head quarters.—N. 0. Tropic. .Capt. Cyrus P. Markle, son of the old veteran soldier, Gen. Joseph Markle, of Westmoreland county ; was unaninsOusty elected Major of the Westmoreland Le, gion, on the Sth inst. Capt. Markle is a chip of the, old block: The Washington Union says that Gen. Vega has asked permission through Gen. Gaines, to leave New Orleans and visit dill.. ferent parts of the Unitd states, and no doubt his wish will be acceedeifto with out difficulty. Mr. Calhoun is said to have averred that if the declaration of war against Mexico had been postponed one day, he would have : prevented the war ! Hoatunt.e.—On - Monday eiening last, a child of bout 5 or B . years old—the daugh ter of Mr. Mettle°, near Diekenson's Land ing=mot its death in the folloWing most singular and xemarkable manner. !laving followed the servant girl (who was milking the cows,) she seized one of the cows by the tail, and began amusing herself by sep arating the hair which was knotted or en tangled toward the tip. The servant girl, who had repeatedly warned her to desist went in with the milk, leaving the child thus occupied, and,on looking out immedi ately afterward, perceived the cow,gallup ing round the barn-yard. and dragging the child after her with fearful speed. She ran to the rescue and seized by the feet the child—whose neck was grasped in a noose, formed of the hairs in the cow's tail,—and began to difig with all her might, but Could neither liberate the child nor stop the cow —which still kept running about with un abated speed'and dashing the child against every interposing obstacle.
