in our empty flour .barrel, the first fruit Of
his harvest. Said he: "There is some.et
the tirst fruit of our crop for you, for 'whiveh: ,
:1 make no charge." Such acts of kindness
from this, and others of my pariahiOn!*
have often called into lively exercise , the
gratitude of my heart, but none wig'"
more suggestive.
The treasury of the Board of Domestic
Missions is in precisely the seine aad..ease
that our flour barrel was fonr . :44yri . ago.
Now if it is ever to be replenishd' it Must
be done very much in the same7tty that the
old flour barrel was replenished:; that is, by
donations.
Let me ask, is it not eminently proper
that we in the West, especially, should
: give to the Lord n thank-otiering ? Give
it to the Board of, natnestie Missions; to
the Board of Churek - Extension, to aid
in building ehurehei:in Father Chiniquy's
Colony, or elsewhere. Give it
.to any of
our Boards, or divide it among them
Give it to theArnerican Bible Society; to
your needy pastor, if he be needy. Give
it to the Ainerican Colonization Society.
Give a little, - if you think proper, to enable
some peer widow to take the Banner. Give
it to any good purpose you• may choose;
but give it, and give it cheerfully. •

which is open only once a week: If, says

he will read, mark, but not inwardly digest;
and the consequence is, he is very likely to
have mental dyspepsia; thd endeav
oring• to acquire too much, strains itself,
and becomes • weakened. 'On - the other
hand, if I see a young student taking but
a small book from the library, and that he
does not return there for some time, I am
satisfied that he will saturate his mind with
the intellect of his author, and not only
gain all the knowledge in the book, but
sharpen .his perceptions, and invigorate
every faculty.
Nothing makes a. man so well as being a
little hungry all the time; and nothing
improves the mind so much as reading one
good book thoroughly, and making every
fact your own. The mind is thus never
cloyed nor weakened.

PHYSICIANS IN CHINA. In China there
is free trade in physic—a good principle
enough, but which has not yet led to all
the desirable reforms in that art. A dose
of Chinese medicine is quite a curiosity. It
is about the size of
.a half pound of moist
sugar, and consists of twenty separate
packets—four or five kindi of bark, a little
orange peel, some walnuts, some gentian,
and half a dozen other sorts, not unlike ,a
small cake 'of blacking. TheSe are all
boiled together, and a good half pint of
the decoction is to be taken quite hot as a
dose. The lowest fee for a visit is about
two pence, and the coolies Of the sedan
have also to be paid. The fee advances by two
pence at a time, so that 4d., 6d., Bd., 10d.,
etc., are the rates, according to, celebrity:;.
very seldom, however, is a single visit
charged more than a sixpence. When you
consult a physician, his mode 'of proceed
ing is this : He lays' your bands on a soft
cushion, feels your pulse at the wrists asks
your age and the' symptoms of your indis
position, looks you attentively in the face,
sapiently strokes his moustache, and then
writes his prescription; perhaps "one hun
dred and fifty pills twice a day,"

Fight With the Indians,
VirAsutivaiow, 'August 13.—Private letters from
Col. LandeVs' wagon' road party, dated' Coney
Lake Valley, July 2d, gives accounts of an en
gagement with the Pahutes Indians, on June 23d,
tive ,clays' , march Eastward from Coney Lake Val
ley. , Landers' party was attacked by Indians in
ambush, and a young man named Painter mor
tally wounded at the first fire. He died the next
• morning. The Indiana were pursued into the
mountains, but returned next day to 'the number
of three thousand, and renewed, the attack, which
was continued about five hours, when the Indians
were routed 'and pursued, several being killed
and one made prisoner. Among, 11l killed was
a chief called Big Jim. The Indians continued
to retreat during the night and were followed
two days by Lander withotit coming to an en
gagement. His provisions now began to grow
short, and he was obliged to return to Honey'
Lake After recruiting a few days, his party
will commence operations on the wagon road,
which they expect to complete 'in sixty days.
Landers had seventy-three with him in the fight,

That the Messri. Steitiway'take the teatilin the
manufacture of. the Piano Porte, is conclusively
evident from the fact that their imprevements
and additions are being adopted one by one by
all the good makers of - this country. The best
manufacturers of Boston, New-York Baltimore,
&c., after ,bitterly opposing and crying down
these improvenients; have, bytheir recent adop
tion' of the same, acknowledged the Messrs.
Steinway as their leaders and superiors in the art
of making Piano Fortes.
The "Felt Covered Hammers," the " Extend
ed Scale,". (from A to. C seven and third octave ;)
and the "the three strings" to • each note, have
only very recently been held up to the public_ of
this •eity .as "new improvements," while' the
Steinway Pianos have boasted of the same 'for
several years ; and now the "Overstrings" are
about being brought out, also, as something: new,
when pe, possessors .of Steinway's pianos itt. this
city and elsewhere, itave,had the benefit of this
improvement for many years. •
It: will thus be seen that the Messrs. Steinway
are ever the first in the perfecting of the Piano
Forte, and that their improvements are looked
upon by others as models to take patterns from.
We beg to direct the attention of the public to
our new stock 'of , Steinway's Pianos, which con
tain not only all of the above improvements, but
also - many others peculiar to themselves. H.

The Binperor Napoleon itithe MlDlforward in
proposals to send troops to•syria. He claims to
be the hereditary protector of, the Christians
there. He wishes, however, to'so conduct mat-
tars as to ilaintain his declaration, that "the
Empire is peace." The - following very curious
letter is published over his signature.:
. Napoleon's letter to the French Ambassador
to London, dated. July 25th, is , published. He
Says : Since the peace of Villa Franca, I have
had but one thought, one object, to inaugurate a
new era of peace and to live on the best terms
with my neighbors, and especially with England.
I have annexed Savoy and Nice? The extraordi
nary additions to Piedmont alone caused' me to
assume to, desire to see reunited to Frence prov
inces essentially French. But it will be objected
to ; you wish for p , eace, and you increase immod
erately the:military forces Of - France. deny the
facts in every sense that my army and fleet had
in them anything of a threatening character.
My steam navy is even far from being equal to
our requirements, and, the number of steamers
does not nearly equal that of sailing:ships thought
necessary in the time of Louis Phillip. I have
four hundred thousand men under arms; but de
duct from this amount sixty thousand in Algeria,
six thousand at itome, eight thousand in China,
twenty thousand grenadiers, the sick and new
conscripts, and you will see my regiments are of
smaller effective strength than during the pre
ceding reign. The only addition to the army list
has been .by the creation of the Imperial Guard.
Moreover, whilst wishing peace, I desire also to
organize the forces of the country on the best
possible terms; for if foreignera have only seen
the bright,side of the last war, I, close at hand,
have witnessed the defects and wished to remedy
them. Having said thus much, I have since Vil
la Franca, neither' done or even thought any-
thing4hich - could Mimi . any orie. Wien ,Lav
lette started for Constantinople, the instructions
which I gave to him were con4ed to this use ;
every effort-to maintain the statu quo • the inter-
est of France, is that Turkey shouldlive as long
as possible.
Napoleon then touched on Syrian, affairs, say
ing that his first thought in the matter was to
come to an understanding with England, and
asks what other interest than that of humanity
could induce him to send troops to that country:
He also says that the: interior organization of
France,-and to increase her resources, are fields
vast enough for his ambition, and sufficient to
satiety, it was difficult for me to come to an
understanding with England on the subject of
Central Italy; because I was bound by the pence
of Villa Franca.:,`As to Southern Italy I am free
from engagements, and ask no better than con
sert with - England on this point as on others.
In heaven's' name let the eminent men 'at the
head-of the, English Government' lay aside their
petty jealousies and unjust mistrusts. Let-us
understand eacli,other in good faith, like_ honest
men as we are, and not like thieves Who desire
to cheat each Other. To' live up to , this' is my
innermost thought. I desire that Italy should
obtain peace, no:matter how, but without foreign
intervention, and that my troops should be able
to quit Rome without eompromiOng the security of
the Pope. I could much wish not to be obliged
to undertake the Syrian. expedition, and in any
case not to undertake it alone. Firstly, because
it will:be a great expense ; secondly, because I
fear this intervention may involve the Eastern
question ; but on the other band I do not see bow
to resist the public opinion in my country, which
Will never understand how we can leave unpun
iched, not only the massacre of Christians, but,
the burning of our coneultitis, 'the insult to our
flag, and pillaged monasteries which were under
our .protection.

carnage of the Bourbonists, who fought with
much obstinacy, so that it became necessary to
gain ground foot by foot under a shower of grape.
The field of battle, covered with dead bodies of
the enemy, and with 'baggage 'of .every kind and
five guns, was at last conquered, amid cries of
"Long Live Italy!" "Long Live Garibaldi !"
" Our young men vied in enthusiasm with the
brave men of 'Garibaldi's legion;'which 49'0;8 the

the first and second redoubt of the fortress, still
pressing the Bourbonists close with:the bayonet.
"Our loss has not been excessive. 'The legion
of Garibaldi has had a few of its men wounded;
our yoUng men have also suffered very little, but
the loss of the continental soldiers has been con

"This morning, the 21st, the Coseo' presented

German affairs seem to be more harmonious
.
than usual. A united Germany is a cheek on
both France and Russia.
SYRIA.
The Times is glad to learn, from its Parliamen
tary report, that Lord J. Russell • has appointed
Lord Dufferin to the responsible post of British
Commissioner to Syria. No Letter; choice could
have been made in so difficult and delicate an
appointment, for, to much ampiaintance with the
country and with the habits of the'people 'Lord
Dufferin unites great tact and ability.
The 'earls correspondent'of the-Times says:
"It is not certain that • , the 'representatives of
the Powers who meet on ,the Syrian , intervention,
will finish their task to-niorrow, "(Tuesday):
There seems to be' , a wish on the part of some to
leave as much time as possible to the Porte for
the suppression of the atrocities in. Syria, and ,
the chastisement of the perpetrators, without
calling for fOreign intervention, In the mean
time, France is hurrying on'her preparations for
the expedition. A subscription ':list has been'
opened at. Paris and the departments,: for the
benefit of the Christians of- Syria,7:rho'have sur
vived the massacre. It is expected that abont
100,000 francs may be forwarded to Syria during
the present week:
°mica, July 31.—The Mercantile Conifer 'pub
lishes an authentic account of - the massacres. at
Damascus up to the' 10th of July, inclusive.
Three thousand Christians have taken refuge In
the citadel occupied , by the Algerins under Abd
el-Kader.
The town was in the power of the nturderirs
and incendiaries to.the.numbor,ofigur hundred,
principally Druses and: Bedouins. The Turkish
garrison consisted'. of 'five' thousand men, who
were inactive or hostile.
The London' tlloining Post has the_following:
Pinit4 July 29.—Official intelligence has only
been received to-day that the Sultan's govern
ment has accepted the proposal to , coMmence
negotiation fora convention. The Plenipotenti
aries will assemble to-morrow at the Rotel of
Fofeign Affairs. Until the signature of the con
vention no embarkation of troops will' take
place.
Paws, July 30.—The conference on the affairs
of Syria"assembled to-day at 2 P. M, for the
second time, at the Ministry for Foreign AffairS
in this sitting the French proposal for inter
vention, which, subject to the ,acquiescence of
the Porte, has been, accepted by the great Pow
ers, was discussed, : for ; the first time,. It is as-,

submission to the will of her heavenly Father continued to
the close of the affecting scene. Her reason was clear, and
her power of utterance did not fail her till life was nearly
extinct. She remarked, to her physician, who was with her,
that she could not stand thielong. Although her sufferings
'were great, she closed.her,eyea in death without a struggle or

TUESDAY, August 14, 1660.
The deceased had long been a Consistent member of the
Presbyterian church, first in'Altoona, Pa., and then In West
Point, but fora considerable period preceding her death, the
constant alternations between the hope of life and the fear of
death, occasioned by. the deceitfulness of her disease, con
sumption, seemed unfavorable to her peace of mind and her
assurance of fitith In Christ, and to her hope of salvation
through him. - But when she came to know the certainty of
speedy death, though the struggle for resignation to die and
leave her family in her heavenly Father's hands was, a hard
one, yet she did become not only resigned to this, but was in
ajoyful and triumphant "frame of soul for several days before
her death ;"and when the'expected summons came, she thrice
exclaimed, "Welcome, death,".and gave up her spirit into her
Saviour's care. One week after, her youngest born was laid ,
in the same grave with his mother, and wall thus quickly,
restored to'fimother's 'society and love.

AMERICAN WATICHES,
MADE BY THE
AMERICAS WATCH COMPANY,
At Waltham, Maas.
Attention is invited to the folloyring statement and accom
panying letters of recommendation and testimonials, In favor
of these Celebrated Watches,
A:od medal was awarded to the Company by the Ameri
can Institute, at New York, in 1807. - • • . .
The. Company . . ale() r'eceieed premihtxt—R gold
medal—froM thapranitlin Institute, Philadelphia, in 1858.
These 'Watches have now been In the "market for nearly ten
years, durinj Whicil time they have been tested as to aeon- .
racy. &liability, and reliability in every cos ceivable manner,
and have proved themselves to be the most satisfactory ; time
ever offered to the public. , .
This result has been brought about by a strict application
trieehanical science to the construction of the Watch from
its very inception, rendering it witeifinished, matheinatically
correct ha all proportions, and necessarily as. perfect a
time-heeper as It br possible to make.
The Company have tested their Watches in many instances,
by actual daily noting, and the result of this test has been
that they have exhibited a rate equal in regularity to the
best Marine chronometer.
11.•=—We' have just introduced a new style of *Watch,
elaborately finished; and thinner than any, we have hitherto
produced, with several improvements, calculated to insure
the greatest accuracy of performance, and 'to prevent the
usual aceidents and derangements to which foreign watches*
are liable. -
