C. lexl'fl‘. .>oo—-———— P reservation of Forests. From the manner in which the Ger- mans preserve and improve their forests, our countrymen might take a valuable lesson. At Hohenheim this forms one of the most important departments of study. The pupils are instructed in the best man- ner of preserving, propagating and im- proving their forest trees, while at the same time a proper estimation of the pe- cuniary and moral value of these noble productions of nature is instilled into their minds, which must eventually become the common sentiment. Our people must give attention to this subject, sooner or later, and every day’s neglect of this practical science will entail upon us evils for which years of labor will hardly make amends. We do not as a people, appre- ciate the value of our forests. Negli- gently, carelessly and wantonly we are destroying them on every side not consid- ~ criug that in them lies a mine of untold wealth; for the time comes with every people when they can turn their own nat- ural productions to the most advantage- ous use for themselves, and this law ap- plies as firmly to the trees as tothc vari- ous mineral ores. Yet what destruction of the best and most valuable timber have you and I witnessed during the past for- ty years in Indiana ! Astatistical state- ment of the pecuniary loss would aston- isll the reader, to say nevhing of the less health and domestic comfort. The con- nection of family health, enjoyment and comfort with a grove of prival forest trees about the homestead, never entered the practical heads of our fathers; and their sons, true to the example before them, pursue the same suicidal conrse,’ Down come the ‘ lofty oaks and the beautiful maple, leaving the homestead to patch and the spring to dry up in the scorching rays of the sun. : . If there are exceptions here and there you will find the value of the farm in- creased a thousand-fold, simply‘becausc the trees have been let alone ; and what if they were cultivated with the proper care 1? All along the line of the railway in Southern Germany I saw acres and acres of forest trees, from ten to fifteen and perhaps twenty years old, planted in rows as regular as corn is with us, and all cultivated in the most scientific man- llCl'. ' When will our people learn wisdom in this matter? Will they heed the warn- ing. of the Old World, listen to the admo- nitions and counsels of science, 13nd be prudent in good time, or will they wait to learn it too late from their own expe- rience? .We certainly who boast so free- ly, and With good reason, of our practic- al foresight, should take shamej to our- selves to be surpassed in this important matter by the Germans. Agriculture in Europe. a. ‘ Woman’s Beauty. It takes most women two-thirds of their lifetime to discover that men may be amused by, without respecting them ; and every woman may make uphcr mind that to be really respected, she must pos- scss merit; she must have accomplish— merits of mind and heart ; and there can be no real beauty without these. If the soul is without cultivation, without re- finement, without taste, without the sweetness of affection, not all the myster- ies of art can make the face beautiful ; and, on the other hand, it is impossible to dim the brightness of an elegant and polished mind ; its radiance strikes through the encasements of deformity,and asserts its sway over the world ‘of the af- fcctions. It has been my privilege to see the most celebrated beauties that shine in the gilded courts of fashion throughout the world, from St. James to‘St. Peters- burg, from Paris to India, and yet I know of no art which can atone for de- fect of an unpolishcd mind and an unlove- ly heart. That charming activity of soul, that spiritual energy, which gives animation, grace, and living light to the animal frame, is, after all, the real source of woman’s beauty. It is that which gives eloquence to the language of her eyes, which gives the sweetest expression to her face, and lights up her Whole per- sound as if her very body thought. Lolu'Mmuez. W W The Newcastle (England) Daily Chronicle says that a well known banker lately observed that several (if his clerks lmd adorned themselves with moustachios. lie called into his private ro'om all the liiuttsluttlled, and said : “Gentlemen, I lump on wish to interfere with your pri- vate amusements 01' hobbies, but I must insist. upon the moustaehios being of in business hours. After 5 P. M. indulge your hobbies, if you choose.” , u. From the ClcauelandlLeader. Two Daughters Bmanclpated by their Father. In the summer of 1857, James Oldllam, a “ free white citizen” of Coahoma county Mis- sissippi, left his plantation near Friar'a Point with his two beautiful daughters,one of whom is now 12 and the other 15 years of age, for the double purpose 0‘ emancipating and edu- cating the girls, for they were his slaves. He was accompanied by Miss Hattie Oldham, a near relative, who came to assist in locating the daughters In their new condition. At Memphis, the younger daughter, Cyrena, having been the pet of the family, and prefer. ring the kuown ease of her sunny home to the fancied trials and the dreaded restraints of school. could not be persuaded to come any further on thcjourney,and her kind father was induced to permit her to return to the planta- tion, while the balance of the party came on and arrived at Oberlin in August. The next day alter their arrival Mr. Oldham was attacked with the typhoid dysentery, and was soon reduced to a critical condition, in which he lingered some three weeks and died Having formed an acquaintance with Dr. R. L. Rea of Oxford, Butler 00., Ohio, and hav- ing great confidence in his skill as a physcian at Mr. Oldhanl’s request, the Doctor came to his bedside, Watched over him until death ended his sufl'erings,aud then accompanied his mortal remains back to his desolate home in Mississippi. When Mr. Oldham became convinced that he must die, his concern for the freedom of his youngest daughter was intense. The old est, Emeline, was with him in Obio,_and was therefore free ; but the younger, by lingering amid the loved scenes of her childhood, was exposed to be inventoricd among the other chattels of the estate, and sold at a high price because ofher light complexion, her beautiful ringlets and her graceful form, and the dying father knew it, and bitter anguish stung his soul. He knew, too, that the.laws of Mississippi forbid emancipation Within her borders, and further, that he could not by his will make her free to be sent out of the State, nor could he will her in trust to another for the purpose of making her free, neither yet could he sell her to any one for that purpose. Thus was the dying parent beleagured on every hand by the monstrous cruelty of the law hedging up as it does, every way by which he might secure freedom to his child and thus save her from adrcadful fate. In this strait he applied to Hon. Phil emon Bliss, of Elyria, for counsel whose clear head and warm heart was soon enlisted in what would seem the hopeless task of enabling a wealthy father to free his own child from eternal slavery. A will was soon executed, in which the facts of the parent’s earnest wish were clearly set forth,‘and by the terms of which the daugh- ters were made free, and the sum of four thou- sand dollars bequeathed for their support and education, and the noble Dr. Rea was appoint- ed executor of the will. It was also provided that the Whole of the above sum should be expended, if necessary, to secure the freedom of the youngest girl, should an attempt be made to prevent it by the heir, under the laws of Mississippi, which wise provision, with the energy and firmness ‘of Dr. Rea, proved more than a match for slavcholding cupidity and slaveholdiug law as is shown in the fact that both Emeline and Cyrens are now safe in Oberlin, where their wants will be supplied and their education provided for under the direction of Dr. Rea. ‘But all this has not been accomplished with out a severe struggle,every point being warm- ly contested by greedy heirs and wicked laws on the one side and the determined Doctor and righteousness on the other. For a time it seemed almost certain that the cormorants would succeed, and that the money as _well as the liberty of Cyrena would be lost ; indeed, so sure were they of success that the heirs bid Doctor Rea a bold defiance. At length a point was decided by the Sn- preme Court of Mississippi‘in a case involving some important ones in this and the contro- versy was brought to a close by a compromise in which Dr. Rea secured the freedom of the girl and three thousand dollars of the money. A few days ago Dr. Ron might have been seen leaving the plantation of the late James Oldham in a large canoe freighted With his precious charge, the tender Cyreua,an unwil- ling cxile from her childhood’s home, and ma- king his devious way for nine miles through recently cut gorges and eddying currents made by the turbid waters of the Mississippi back to Friar’s Point, where he embarked for the purpose of reinstating these sisters in Oberlin, the very place chosen for them by the dying, honest slaveholder, where they can become free, virtuous and intelligent women. .———-o-¢.>o RIDING 0N aCowcarcnsa.—N.P. Willis and others recently made an excursion over Balo timore and Ohio railroad. Mr. Willis gives an amusing account of a ride upon the cow- cafcher. He says ; ' “ We had reached Martinsville, on our re- turn—retracing in sixteen hours the four days route of exploration, and of course travelling at full railroad speed—When our kind ofiicial entertainer, Prescott Smith, pointing to the front of the engine, asked if I would like to ride there. The thought delighted me, of course, and I took my seat at once on the sort of gridiron Wedge, and front of the locomotive built for throwing to the right or left any number of stray cattle on the track. With the sun intensely bright, and the thermometer all day at ninety-four degrees, my black "011 seat was not the coolest, and the glowmg ad- miration of the Matinsburg boys, who gather- ed around in the few minutes that I sat alone on the cowcatcher, in front of the sultry sta- tion-house. made it promise, at first, totbe too warm on experience. Presently, hpWever, I was joined by another of our charming party to when my example had proved tempting; and. with Prescott Smith on one side of me and Thompson, (of the Southern Litcrary.) on the other, I felt a little more reconciled to the risky possibility— that of being wrped off with my two brother authors, by any cow that should camber the track, or, in other words, served up to late in a literary sandwrch With “ forced cow-cumbers.” Well—the iron steed gave his accustomed snort, (which it takes pretty good car-drums to enjoy as you sit diaphragm) and off began to rattle the fore-foot bestrided. Behind glid- ed the streets and people of Martinsburg, and the hot-air along with them for to our ex- quisite delight, it grew cool enough in the second or third minute. Smoke, cinders, and second atmosphere, were all fanned to the rear. With the accelerated speed, the rush of air was a strife of unseen caresses, a my- riad of soft fingers storking back the hair up- on one’s temples, and pulling gently at the corners of one’s beard, like the shampoolng by the daughters of Eolus—(a little imagina- tive, perhaps, but remember here were three authors on the cow catcher !) while the hand- kerchief with which I endeavored to blow my nose was so forced up my nostrils as to make me sneeze. The " sleepers” or braces across the rail track, at first separate and distinct. confused into a solid plank. Cow after cow came in sight, and in the next instant had a narrow escape of our rather-be-excnsed bosoms —pig after pig, idem—idem flocks of sheep, grazing horses, drunken men, and Irish chil- dren. What a gauntlet of accidents runs a common cow-catcher, to be sure! . But,to be thus telegraphed in one’s hat and boots, strangely removes some of one’s early prejudices. The way we jumped chasms and skimmedlponda—popped across rivers and cleft Open hills—shot over into caverns under mountains, and spun away on the other side as if nothing happened—skirted precipices and round ed bluffs—all at the same pace,and with no manner of recognition of mortal manta common hindrance and obstacle. Why It emanated a“ flight of fancy 1” It was thought travel—ghost Sighting—angel’s errand going (or rather “ Adam’s Expreg. befm-e the fan) -—a realization, in fact, of two of my own once imaginative questions in an early poem. Are ye thought rapid ? Can ye fly as far, As instant as a thought? To which any rider on the cow-catcher of the Baltimgrc and Ohio would anaWer, .. Yes- sir-ec 1 o¢.>—o A New Question.

Galvanized Chains, Patterns executed at 1 O ‘ Scrofula, or King’s EyIl} is a constitutional disease, a corrn ' ' blood, by which this fluid becomrgsmiiit‘iitiaid: weak, and poor. Being in the circulation it pervades the whole body, and may burst (in: in disease on any part of it. No organ is free from its attacks. nor is there one which it may not destroy. The scrofulous taint isvariously caused by mercurial disease, low living dis- ordered or unhealthy food, impure air’filth and filthy habits, the depressing vices ’and above all, by the venereal infection. What: ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con- stitution, descending “ from parents to children unto the third and fourth generation ;" indeed it 1ipems tohbe the rod of Him who says “i w' visit t c ini uities of the r ’ their children." q “the" “pm Its effects commence by deposition from the blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which in the lungs, liver. and internal organs, is tel-riled tubercles; in the glands, swelling“ and on the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul cor- ruption, which genders in the blood. depresses the energies of life, so that scrofulous constitu. tions not only suffer from scrofulous com- plaints, but they have far less power to with- stand the attacks of other diseases; conse— quently, vast numbers pens' h by disorders which, although not scrofulous in their nature. are still rendered fatal by this taint in the system. Most of the consumption which do- cimntes the human family has its origin directly in this scrofulous contamination; and many destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain, and. indeed, of all the organs, arise from or are aggravated by the same cause. One quarter of all our pcoplearescrofulous; their persons are invaded by this lurking in- fCCtlon. and their health is undermined by it. To cleanse it from the system we must renovate the blood by an alterative medicine, and in- vrgoratc it by healthy food and exercise. Such a mullcme we supply in AYER’S Compound Extract of Sarsaparills, the most effectual remcd which the medical skill of our times can devise for this every where prevailing and fatal malady. It is com- blncd from the most active remedials that have been discovered for the expurgation of this foul disorder tom the blood, and the rescue of the system. from Its destructive consequences. Hence It should be employed for the cure of not only scrofula, but also those other affec- tions which arise from it, such as Enumvn and Sim: DISEASES, Sr. AN'rnomr’s Furs, Rose, or Envsrrsms, Plurrss, Pusrosss. ercnss, Burns and BOILS, Torrens, Tar-run and SALT RHEUM, Scam HEAD, Rmcwonu Rumma'rrslr, Smrtrrrc and MERCURIAI.

The popular belief In “ impurityqf the blood ” is founded in truth, for scrofula is a degeneration of the blood. The particular purpose and virtue of this Sarsapa. rll_1a is to purify and regenerate this vital fluid, Without which sound health is impossible in contamm' ated constitutions.
