GUBETv.NATOR.~l ROBERT McILlIENY, Commissioners JOHN BROUfiH. HORMJR. Clerk. Extract --How difl'ercnt is the scene vse this day behold from that of fifty yeais ago. The tiaces of have been erased by the hand of tune.

The farmer's hoy this day sips the wine cup beside the blue streams once crimsoned i a gore. i banncis and plumes down a i shock of battle, now Ihe golden hanest a itsyel- Where lolled the puiple wave of blood, is now beheld the gambols of childhood, the fiohc of angel of peace now hoveis ovei her domestic altars with outspread wings The lulls "Which Freedom's shear has ploughed, Still nurse a race that has not bowed Their knee to aught but God The laurel wreaths their fathers won, Their children weai them still, Proud deeds thcbe iron men have done, They fought and uon at Bennmgton, And bled at JBunkerilill. By the mounds their ashes made, By the altars where they prayed, By our right hand and blade, Still we will be free." If the lime shall ever come, when llns mighty fabric shall totter when the beacon of joy that now rises ma pillar of fuc, a sign and v.onder of the world, shall wax dim, the cause will be found in Hie ignorance of Ihe people. If our union is sull to continue to cheer the hopes and animate the eflorts of the oppiesscd ofevcry naiion if our fields aie lo be untrod by ibe hirelings of despotism if long of blessedness aie to attend our country her career of glory "if you would have the sun continue to shed his unclouded rajs upon the face of freemen, then educate all the children in the land. This a- loue startles the tv rant in his dreams of power, and rouses the slumbering energies of an oppressed people.

It is intelligence that reaied up ihe majestic columns of national glory and tins alone can prevent them Irom crumbling- i ashes. chicf of the stormy revolution, as the orator holding charmed senates in the enchanting thraldom of as puie an eloquence as ever gushed from the lount of patriotism. But alas the silver wave of the Hudson was reddening with his blood, and he was boinc back to the city, and to his home, to spicad paleness aucl consternation tliiough the othei. Bcfoie the floweis had withered, the giver was 'a thingof cailh'--a cold, pale dwellci in etein'uy. Main day as Judge Pai- sons was jogging along the road on horseback ovei a desoljtc load through wild and xvoithlcss land, lie came upon a hut, dirty, smoke-coloicd, shattered and wretched.

lie slopped to contemplate the too eudent poveity of the scene. A poor half-sUuvcd fellow, with uncombed head and unshaven bcaid, his head through a square hole which served fora window, wuh "I say Judge, I aint so poor as you i 1 be, for I don't own this eie land." Cure for Laziness --The Dutch had the best contrivance for the treatment" of pauperism I have ever heard of. They took a man and put him to work if he was able. If he would not work, they gave him several warnings Jf these were ineffectual, they put him inacistern and let in a sluice of water. It came in just so fast, that by briskly plying a with which ihe cistern was furnished, he could keep himself from marsh fever, yellow fever, c.

which originate from Ihe patient having imbibed a' febrile poison, arc, in their very first stages, accompanied wilh a blackness and stagnation of the blood, occasioned by Ihei destruction of us saline to cine the patient, ihis saline principle must be icslored. Take, foi instance, ihe bite of a rattle snake. In this case the poison of tha serpent's fang mingles with the circulation, destroys its red color, and its vitali- ty, brings on blackness of the blood, stagnation of its current, convulsions, and death. The unfailing antidote, which experience has taught the Indian to apply, is to scarify the wound to the' bot-'" torn, and lo fill it with salt. This salt 13 taken into the circulation, restores the leclness and vitality blood, andlho wound soon heals.

Malignant fevers, and other malignant disorders, operate the same way. They ing the color and vitality of the- blood, and" reducing it to a black and mass and, says Dr. Slevens, I have licnts in the last stages of these disorders, recover-under the use" of lanro doses of common salt and other saline's- gents, where the cases at first were so- hopeless, that their recovery afterwards appealed to be almobt a miracle.
