The Land of Rest.
There is a land where beauty Will not fade,
Nor sorrow dim the eye ;
Where true hearts will not sink nor be dismayed,
And love will never die.
Tell me, I fain would go, .
For I am burdened' with a heavy Woe;
The beautiful have left me all alone ;
The true, the tender, from my path have gone,
And I am visa and fainting with despair;
Where is it ? Tell me, where ?
Friend .thou mast trust to Him who trod before
The lonely path of life;
Must.beir meekness, as he meekly bore,
Sorrow, and toil, and strife.
Think how the Son of God
These thorny paths has trod;
Think how he longed to go,
Yet tarried out for thee the appointed woo ;
Think of his loneliness in places dim,
When no man comforted nor oared for him ;
Think how ho prayed, unaided and alone,
In that dread agony, 44 Thy will be done!"
Friend, do not thou despair,
Christ, in his heaven of heavens, will hear thy
prayer. [Mond.

A Christian Boy's Inflame.
When. Frank was twelve years old he had
received but little religious instruction.
His parents were not Christians. His
father paid but little regard to the Bible,
and argued that conversion was not ne
cessary in order to go to heaven. He had
removed with his family, about five years
before, to a new settlement in the wilder
ness. There were but few families scatter
ed around him. Two of his sons were
married and lived near him. They were
intelligent, and fond of reading, and they
did much by arguing, and circulating books
and papers, to spread the deadly errors in
which they had been brought up, in that
little neighborhood. There Frank lived.
When he was about twelve years old, he
went away to spend several weeks with rela
tives, in a place where he was instructed in the
Bible, and where he heard the preaching of
the Gospel. It was all quite new to him.
He was anxious to learn about religion.
The Holy Spirit convinced him of his sins.
He prayed that God would give him anew
heart. He found the Saviour, and gave
very clear evidence that he had become a
Christian. Soon afterwards he returned to
his father's house, where it was not easy for
a boy tolive as a Christian.
About a year after this, there was
preaching in that new settlement, and there
were several persons who were awakened
and hopefully converted. Among the con
verts were the two married brothers of Frank,
who began at once to pray in their families,
and destroyed their bad books.
The father did not attend any of the
meetings. But I conversed with him, and
endeavored to induce him to attend to the
salvation of his soul. But ' I could not see
that any impression was made upon him
till I asked him this question : "What in
fluence has religion had upon Frank ? Do
you think it has made him any better ?"
" Yes, sir," said he, " I think it has made
him better. I suppose that he was no
worse than other boys before. But he is
a good boy now. I must say that for him."
His feelings choked his utterance, so that
he could say no more. In a few days he
submitted his heart to God, and was him
self rejoicing in the Saviour he had found.
No doubt the good conduct of that boy,
as a Christian, was one means of leading
his father to Christ.
Every Christian boy can exert a power
ful influence for good upon those about
him. L. S.
*needle Work.
Needle-work is thus gracefully eulogized
by Nathaniel Hawthorne in the "Mrble
Faun."
"There is something extremely pleasant
and touching—at least, of very sweet, soft
and winning effect—in this peculiarity of
needle-work, distinguishing men from wo
men. Our own sex is incapable of any
such by-law aside from the main business
of life; but women—be they of what earth
ly rank they may, however gifted with in
tellect or genius, or endowed with awful
beauty—have always some little handiwork
ready to fill up the' tiny gap of every va
cant moment. A needle is familiar to the
fingers of them all. A queen, no doubt,
plies it on occasions; the woman-poet can
use it as adroitly as her pen; the woman's
eye that has discovered a new star, turns
frciin.its,glary to send the polished little in
strument gleaming along the hem of her
kerchief, or to darn a casual fray in her
dress. And they have the •advantage of us
in this aspect. The slender thread of silk
or cotton keeps them united With the small,
familiar, gentle interests of life, the contin
ually operating influences of which do much
for the health of the character, and carry
off what; would_otherwise be a dangerous
accumulation of morbid sensibility. A
vast deal of human sympathy runs along
this electric line, stretching from the throne
to the wicket chair of the humblest seam
stress, and. keeping high and low in a
species of communion with their kindred
beings. Methinks it is a token of healthy
atfgentle - characteristies, when women of
acenittplialiments and high thoughts love to
sew, especially.as they are never more at
home with their own hearts than when so
occupied.
Uneducated Women.
There is no sight so truly pitiable as that
afforded by a rising &Tully of children un
der the guardianship of an ignorant mother.
We Would be understood by the use of the
term ignorant, as wishing to convey the
picture of a mother whose maiden days
were devoted to the acquirement of fash
ionable accomplishments, to the exclusion
Of solid mental culture and acquirements.
The'nroman who reigns the queen of the
ball room is veryleldom found capable of
being the governess of her own children;
and the time spelt at soiree and route will
be bitterirregretted when age brings ex
perience and consequent remorse for the
evil she has inflicted, and her incapacity to
discharge properly the interestine , and im
portant duties of her station, when it was
her natural duty to be at once an instructor
and an . example. The maiden who casts
aside her book for the cotillion, will never
win the love and esteem of a Senitible man;
and should she select a partner for life
among her partners in the dance, she will
find, when it is too late, that her thoicehas
been as unfortnnate as the place where she
first attracted his notice was injudicious.
We look with pain upon that wife who en
ters upon her second era with fashionable
ideas of. society. Her first era has been
devoted to the attainment of certain rules
and systems scarcely pardonable in the-girl in ,
certainly censurable "the wife, and crim
inal in the Mother.
The following remarks by Hannah:Moore,
so forcibly

our views on the, sub
jeot, that we give - them in lieu of anything
further from ouraelf:
" When a man of sense comes to marry,
it is a companion whom he wants, not an
artist. It is not merely a creature who can
paint and play, sing and dance—it is a
being who can comfort and counsel him—
one who can reason and reflect, and feel and
judge, and discourse and driscriminate---
The garden is planted with potatoes,
beans, a little corn to boil with them, a bed
of beets and onions, and perhaps a few
tomatoes, so that the variety of food placed
upon their tables, is not as large as would
conduce to their health and enjoyment. If
it can be lode, select a piece of ground
that is sufficiently moist not to suffer by
drought, and having manured it well, plow
it thoroughly, if two or three times, so
much the better. Those that are so dis
posed, can display their taste in •arranging
the different articles raised, in a pleasing,
attractive manner, so as to be an ornament
to the homestead, as well as of great ser
vice, in supplying food for the family.
In selecting the kinds of vegetables and
fruits to be raised, care should taken to
raise such as ripen at different times, so
that the table will be Well supplied through
out the entire season. A practical farmer
who is in comfortable circumstances, once
remarked to us that he could not afford to
raise strawberries, and other fruit of like
nature; it would do for those who got their
money some other way, but farmers could
not afford to eat them. Now this is a great
mistake. Who has a better right to the
best fruits of -the earth, than the man
who spends his life, in working upon, the
soil ?
From the Tract Jou'inal.
We say to all who have any land, cul
tivate not only the coarser vegetables, .but
many others, and such fruits as will add
comfort and happiness to the family.
Do 'not plant too soon ; wait patiently
until the ground is in a suitable condition.
Hoe often and keep the earth as much pul
verized as possible, and it will be found
that a garden of half an acre will not only
increase the wholesome luxuries of the
family, but add much to the profits 'of the
farmer.

Such is the woman who is fit for a mother
and the mistress of a family. A woman of
the former description may occasionally
figure in the drawing-room, and attract the
admiration of the company; but she is
entirely unfit for a helpmate to a man, or
to train up a
,child in the way it should
go."

Many farmers cannot find time to raise
those articles of comfort and luxury which
are eaten by the laboring classes of the
cities.
'free Washes.
Various preparations have been proposed
for this purpose, and, indeed, almost all al
kalies have been used in turn. In some
sections of the country we see the trunks
of trees whitewashed with lime, perhaps
this is the most barbarous .of all the plans
which have been proposed, for although the
lime, if used when first slaked, may have
some power to decompose organic substan
ces occupying the surface of the bark,
still, in degree, it disorganizes the bark it-.
self, and as lime Changes into a carbonate,
it fills the surface so as to prevent, in part,
the healthy respiration of the tree, and a
bright, clean, smooth bark never results
after such practice. Solutions of potash,
when saturated, destroy the cocoons, and
ova of insects, and occasionally destroy the
tree itself, therefore become dangerous.
Soda may be used with impunity, without
injuring the bark of any tree, for although
it causes the rapid decay of, the dead por
tions of the bark, it has no effect on 'the
living parts. A. saturated solution of coda
may be sprinkled over the surface of the
most delicate plants in green houses, it will
dry in white spots upon the leaves '
and will
not injure them. When - applied to fruit
trees, it does not injure the buds, while the
cocoons and ovas are fully decomposed.
All mosses' and fungi disappear upon its
use, and the after growth of the tree will
throw off the decomposed portions of the
dead bark; indeed it leaves the tree perfect
ly clean, and as clean trees are less liable
to be attacked by insects, proves a protec
tion for a long time after its use. With
plum, cherry, and other smooth-barked
trees, they may be rubbed with a woolen
cloth and sand, soon after the application
of the soda wash, so as to produce a
polish.
We have a few trees to which the soda
has been applied frequently, to the point
where the branches commence, and it is
now evident that the portion of the tree
thus treated, is in finer health and larger,
relatively, than the parts immediately above
it not reached by the soda.
The soda should be thus prepeared:
Heat one pound of common sal soda in an
iron pot, to redness, this will force out the
carbonic acid and water, rendering the soda
caustic; then dissolve in one gallon water,
and when cold apply it with, a mop to the
thicker portions of the branches, trunk,
etc. The dews and rains will remove it
from the surface of the tree in - due time.—
Working Farmer.
How to Thrive.
A gentleman in England had an estate
which was worth about a thousand dollars
a year. For a'while he kept his farm in
his hands, but at length found himself so
much in debt that he was obliged to sell
ene-half of his place to pay up. The rest
he let out to a farmer for several years.
Toward the end of that' time, the fanner,
on coming to pay his rent,, asked him
- whether he vrould sell his farm. The gen
tleman was surprised that the fanner should
be able to make him an offer for his place.
"Pray, tell me," said he, "-how.it.happens
that, while '-I could not live on twice as
much land, for which -I payed no tent, you
are regularly paying me live hundred dollars
a year for the farm, and able in a few years to
purchase'it." " The'reason is . plain," an
swered the farmer ; " it lies in the differ
ence between 'go and 'come.'" " I do
not understand you," said the gentleman.
"I mean," said the farmer, "that you sat
still. and said Go; I get up and say, come.
You lie in bed, and enjoy your ease; I rise
early in the morning, and attend to my
business." In other words, this was an in
dustrious man ; there-was no love of idle
nesi about him, and this led to his success
in life.
Cure for Gapes in Chickens.
I have tried the following plan, and
found it a certain cure for gapes in chick
ens. Take a medium' sized broom splint,
with a sharp knife make two or three barbs
near the large end. Open the mouth of
the chicken, having its neck drawn straight,
and as the windpipe is opened for breath,
put in the instrument, and, running it care
fnlly down the full length of the windpipe,
turn it around and draw it up, when one
or more small red worms, an inch in length,
will be found caught in the 'barbs. I have
taken out four worms at one insertion.
Two or three operations are often necessary,
but if faithfully performed, the remedy is
sure.
Yellow, Wash.
As the time for whitewashing drain
near, I would recommend the following tor
rooms that are not intended to be papered,
viz.:
Prepare Whitewash in the usual way as
for whitewashing, then take horse-radish
leaves, as soon. as they are grown enough,
boil them as if for greens, pour the juice
into the whitewash, and you have a beauti
ful bright yellow. A. Wilson, Mareellus,

General Jacksen.
After the war of 1812, General Jackson
was never seen at the cock-pit, and seldom
on the race-ground, though his love of
horses was a love that never' grew cold,
He was no great reader of books. His
library at the Hermitage consisted chiefli of
presentation copies, and the Biblical com
mentaries, so eagerly read by the General
at a later day. fie was always a devourer
of newspapers, however, and was particu
larly fond of hearing an eloquent speech
read aloud in the family circle. In earlier
years, he had been a warm admirer of the
eloquence of Henry Clay. He once de
clared with peculiar emphasis, that it was
the perusal of Mr. Clay's speech against
the recharter of the 'United . States Bank,
in 1811; that convinced him of the uncon
stitutionality and impolicy of a National
Bank. The later speeches of Mr. Clay in
favor of the Bank, wdare well aware, could
not shake the convictions of 1811. Mr.
Calhoun's war speeches were keenly rel
ished by the General, as were the dimplo
matic dispatches of Mr. John 'Quinlicy'Ad
ams. Monroe, Calhoun, Adams, and De
Witt. Clinton, were the public men who
stood highest in his regard at this period.
The conversation of General Jackson,
when at home among his familiar friends,
related chiefly to the warlike exploits of
himself and his companions. Revolutien
ary anecdotes, of which his old friend, Gen.
Overton, had a large stock, were particu
larly pleasing to him, and be was fond of
telling over the story of his own. boyish
adventures during that contest. In speak
ing of the defence of New Orleans, he
usually attributed his success to the direct ,
interposition of Providence in suliport (if

We Have Got a Baby at our House.
The Boston, Post is the authority of a
good story of a bachelor friend :
Our friend was riding, a day or two ago,
through Athol, in this State, where he ,
overtook a-little girl and boy apparently on
their way to school. The little girl ap-_
peared to be five or six years old, and was
as beautiful as a fairy. Her eyes were lit
up with a gleam of intense happiness, and
her cheeks glowed with the hues of health'.
Our bachelor looked at her for a moment
admiringly. She met his glance with a
smile, and with an eager voice saluted with,
"Have you got a baby ?" He was struck
aback by the question, and somethin,g like
a regret stole over his mind as he looked
upon the animated and beautiful little face
before him. " No," he answered. " Well,"
she replied, drawing her tiny form proudly
up, " we have," and passed on, still smiling,
to tell the joyous news to the next one she
might meet. What a world of happiness
to her was concentrated in that one idea,
the baby 1 And her joy she felt as if
all must have the same delight as herself;
and it was a matter of affectionate pride to
her that lifted her little heart above the
reach of ordinary envy, for in the baby was
her world, and what else had she to crave ?
Such was the reflection of our friend, and
he remembered it long enough to tell it
yesterday in State Street. -;
The English National Debt.
The beginning of the English national debt
was in the reign of Charlea the Second, about
1672, when £660,000, about $3;000,000,
was borrowed of the bankers and other cap
italists of London, on pledge Of the taxes,
but the Government not keeping its prom
ise of re-payment from the taxes many of
those who advanced the money were ruined.
The revolution of 1688 and the establish..
meat of <William and. Mary on the throne
added about £2,000,000 or $10,000,000
more to the sum. In 1721 the wars with
France and Spain were foundo have run
up the debt to' X54;000,000 or arly $270,-
i
000,000. In 1784,;the,"war ith France
and Spain and .the American RevOlution
. •
had increased the debt to £240 000 000 or
) .1 I
about $1;200;000,000. 'And an 1815, at
the close of the long war against France, it
reached the highest, figure at which , it; has
ever ;stood, namely, £860,000,000, Ori',s4,-
300,000,000. From this time up to the
commencement of the Crimean war, it was
radaedabout £100,000,000, or $64:000,-
000, but the Crimean war added £15,000,-
000, , bringing it up to X 805,00 0 1000, or
$4,020,000,000. , The interest on the debt
has been much reduced. At the beginning

of the last century this' was eight.per dent.
Now it is reduced to three anci-avhalf per

for them, even such as concerned their

much work rather thane by too little,

them advice on the subject. "Touch

if any, - supper. Breakfast on nettle or
orange-peel tea. -Lie down before ten;
rise:before five. Every day use as much
exercise as you can bear; or murder your-
self by inehes." "These rules," he adds,
" are as necessary for the people as the
preachers." He allowed his itinerant;
however, to drink a glass of ale' at night
after preaching. He interrogated them
closely in his printed Minutes about, their
habits. " Do you," he asked, "deny
yourselves every useless pleasure of sense,
imagination, honor? Are you temperate

food : Do you; use only that kind, and that
degree, which is best both, for the bOdy and

This word, generally supposed to be de

gin, according, to the, .British Apollo, of
September, 1708, to one Joe Dun, a famous
baliff of =Lincoln, England, in the time of
Henry VII. He is said to have been so
extremely shrewd in the management of
his rough business, and so dexterous in the
collection of dues, that his name became
proverbial; and whenever a man refused
to pay his debts, it grew into a prevalent
custom to say, " Why do n't you Dux

The above is given more to convey in idea of the general
character of the work than as en index to its voluminous
contents, which Will embrace everything of interest to in
telligent religious minds. .
We believe a general record like this, to which every . one
might turn for authentic information on all topics of current
religious interest, has long been wanted, and would be found
of great convenience, not only to clergymen and other church
officers, but to all interested in the moral and religious move=
meats of the age. It has been the uhn of the publishers to
supply this want, and in THE AMERICAN CHRISTIAN
Ittlik:litD to present a work which would enable all Chris
tians familiarly to understand one another's faith, efforts,
and strength, in which each. should be able to read the past
and present story of his particular denomination, and com
pare It with that of others; and which all might perceive
at a glance, first, the efforts of individual institutions. and
then the result of their united operations throughout the
entire world.
In conclusion we venture to say, that so vast an amount of
varied information on religious subjects has never before
been. brought within the compass of a single volume. •

THE PACIFIC EXPOSITOR.
The PACIFIC EXPOSITOR is to be devoted to the expo.:
sition of God's Word, and the preaching of the Gospel, ac-
Cording to the Standards of onr Church. We wish to do by
the Press, for our fellow-citizens, just what we do for Calvary
congregation every Sabbath; that is to expound, explain and
preach to them the Word of the Living God. We *mild, if
possible, furnish sermons to be read on the Lord's day, in the
lonely place of our valleys and mountains, where there is no
pastor or evangelist to open his mouth and show the way of
salvation; and into the crowded village of miners, farmers,
and travellers, where as yet there is no house of worship, we
desire to send the Ezrostron, to open to them the Scriptures,
and preach unto them Jesus. It is well known that a large
number of the half million of souls that are on this coast do
not attend any church or meeting-house; many thousands of
them never hear a sermon preached from year to year. We
would furnish them with such reading as would remind them
of their early training—the home of their youth—and cattle
them to seek and servo the God of their fathers, with a per
fect heart and a willing mind. We hope to make the
. EXPOBITOR a missionary, that may preach even. where the
colporteur and the evangelist do not go.
Not one dollar of the subscriptions will be appropriated to
the editor's private use. All that is subscribed beyond the
actual cost, will be spent in extending the circulation of the
work among our miners, eattledrivers, farmers; sailors, and
travellers. The EXPOSI7OR will be issued every month, at'
Three Dollars per annum, in advance. It will make an
octavo volume of over six hundred pages. It is very neatly_
printed, and on good paper. The postage prepaid to any .
part of the 'United States is ass east for each number. Gold
dollars, or three dollar pieces, or drafts on the San Francisco
Express Companies, can be rent at our risk, by mail.
To my friends and the Christians of the blessed old .
States," I would say, that though California ie making them
rich, we are poor, and in building up Christian institutions,
we need not only your prayers and sympathy, but we 'need'
your contributions. As a missionary agency, it is difficult
to see how you mu do as much by three dollars hi any Other
way, as you can do by subscribing for this work. By means
of the Post Office, you can send it to preach to thousands,
who have been taught to read, but do not attend church, end
Indeed have done to go to.
*lir Ministers, elders, chrirch officers, and others, who' are
friendly , to his work, are invited to act as agents in procuring
subscriliers. A liberal commission wit lbe allowed.
