pain, He loses both who more than one would gain.”â€"â€" We have seen that the education of the Danvers boy were extremely limited. We know that no natural gifts of readiness will compensate for the lack of commercial know- ledge, when a man really meets the difficul- ties and complexities that his business may present. Mr. Peabody lived in an age, and for the last twenty years of his life, among a people where these qualifications were essential to success. Honesty will not alwavs answer for ignorance, and innocence Will not evade disaster when a mistake is really made. Hence, to maintain public confidence, there must be ability to manage. If it be. as we think it is, at least desirable that to enjoy that confidence we should i - form ourselves, not only on topics of general and political interest, touching the govern- ment of nations, the relations of empires, and the rights of long established dynasties, as they usually stand in relation to the acknowledged rights of a civilized people, which in time and place may be far removed from us, but we require at least frequently .some knowledge of those commonwealths whose independence may have been extlll' guished centuries ago, whose language is now unspoken, and whose ancient magnifi- tcenee is only attested by a few broken col- umns and prizes. This is all valuable, highly valuable, as it enables us to follow the analogy of the nations, and interpret. the «times in which we live. But it is of still greater importance to those who are solving the problems of practical lite,t0 be acquaint- ed with the publie mind, and the public requirements of the land in which we live and labor. To know the causes and nature. and as far as possible the extent of those revolutions of opinion that alternately raise and depress the standard of national pros perity. But the want of this knowledge did not discourage him. He sedulously set himself to work, and when the portion of his time which he owed to the counting- house was faithfully put in, he spent the remaining hours In mental culture, ranging those fields of intellectual delight where the very attractions that lured him on in those pleasant paths. supplied the material by which be secured an honorable place among those who sat with him around the table of luxurianee. His knowledge of genial topics was extensive, his will and ability to com- munlcate co-mensurate. Free and fluent in conversation he was by no means obtrusive. but was always credited with being a good taker, or as a conductor or manager of a public house said, “he was a comfortable man to have around.” Having had occasion to visit London, in England, in the year 1827, for the transaction of business in con- nection with the establishment in Baltimore, of which he was first a partner and after- wards the head, he found in that great thoroughfare inducements to commence a branch business there. He took up his residence in London in 1847. His London life is what addsaspccial lustre to his name. There he amassed the greater portion of his princely fortune, and there he executed some of his largest designs for the amelioriation of‘the sufferings of the poor. Here also were heaped upon him the unsolicited honors of the wealthy and noble of the land. It had been his design for years to do some- thing for the poor, in gratitude for the un- paralleled success that had attended his business undertakings; and he prayed for direction in his undertaking. He was some time at a loss to know how such distribution could be made as would really benefit the deserving. Such is the world's heritage. “ The poor ye have always.” And the real and permanent blessing of heaven rests on those who feed them and clothe them, But the ploblem has often presented itself to the charitable, who are they to whom help is a blessing? There are hundreds of human beings in populous cities who spend their time and means in crime and sin too horrible to mention. Increase their means, and you only increase their ability to sin. Destitute of gratitude, destitute of virtue, or ofshamc ; destitute of anything and everything upon I which civilization might seize, in order to 5 raise them out of their degraded state. 1 There seems to be no hope for them only in the reformatory or workhousc. The only apparent means of preventing the tide of iniquity from rolling on and on, is to adopt the plan now so successfully earzied on by Miss Rye, and by saving the youth thus cut ofi‘ the supply, and thus save those whose hearts are not yet used to crime, and whose hands are not yet skillnt in its commission. There is a class of really deserving poor who are kept in their miserable condition by the expense of living in large cities, and their r feeble appliances to procure the means. Y Their associations necessarily degrading, 3 they are drifting in the direction of pauper- ism. Mr. Peabody could never sympathize with idleness, however he might compassion- ately feel for those unhappy victims ofhabit ( and sin. He knew that assistance rendered to individual want, or undeservinw poverty, 5 c _â€"«;â€"-aâ€" C was next to thrown away. Hence, with the assistance of his friends, he planned and executed a scheme by which hundreds of the lower class of working men with their families were helped to respectability, and b rescued from vice. The plan is known to se you all, and it is only necessary to say that, at the cost of $3,000,000, a building was erected near Islington, in which accommo- dation for hundreds was provided,and offered M to the working class at a rental within their it reach, by which they were saved from the bitter sting of want, or the bittercd sting of dependence. The people of London thus bl put to shame, allowing an American citizen W to lead the van in relieving their own poor, made some atonement for their neglect, and showed their appreciation of his noble charity by erecting in the public square 3. A statue to his memory. It was unvailed by the Royal hand of the Prince of Wales,who p( in a brief speech acknowledged the esteem W‘ in which he held the man, their indebtedness Pl to his liberality, and the honour which he P, reflected to the country of which he was a citizen. His charity attracted the attention "e of the Queen, who offered to show her per bl‘ sonal rec'ognition by offering him a title or of creating him “Knight of the order of the M Bath.” He declined the proffered honour, preferring an autograph letter from history, f0 which was readily granted, together with a pe miniature picture of herself. They were both brought to his native towu, and with other valuable heir-looms are laid in the vault of the Institute of his own erection, ta, and bearing his own name. .: \4 I w found, The left, the cross drags sluggish on the ground, In vain for him appears the narrow way, The world has led him from the path astray, In vain for him beams forth the shining See the professor, laboring in vain, The world and cross, together to sustain, The globe is in his right hand, dexterous a light, This world has risen, and obscures his sight, Two minds he has, and both he calls his own, Sometimes they lead him up, and sometimes a L, nrrnfiwnâ€" down, Like doubtful birds that hop from spray to spray, His wiil is never at one certain stay; Too late he learns with deep regret and (CONCLUDED NEXT WEEK News from Fort Garry is unimportant.

This preparation is entirely different in its com- bination and effects from all other remedies called hypophosphites. The genuine has the name of Fellows' & Co., blown on the bottle, and is the only article of the kind selling at $1 50 per bottle. Fellows’ Com- pound Syrup of‘ Hypophosphites is pre- scribed by the first physician in every city and town where it has been introduced, and it is a thoroughly orthodox preparation.

After all sorts of means had been tried and failed, it was suggested that a simple remedy used in India. should be triedâ€"that. is, to get a. small rope and attach it to one of the fore feet of the stubborn animal, the person holding the end of it to advance a few paces, taking with him the horse’s foot, when, as a matter of course, the horse must follow. The suggestion was at first ridiculed, but at last a rope was brought. and applied as described, when the horse immediately advanced, and in a few minutes was out of sight, much to the amaze- ment of the crowd. The experiment is simple and worth a trial. The first number of a new telegraphic newspaper containing private messages. primed and microscopically photographed, containing 226 despatches on a surfrce of twelve centimetres square, reached Paris yesterday by a pigeon, with intelligence from every part, of France and abroad, but, the pigeon service is extremely uncertain: out of 200 taken away by the balloons only 30 returned. The Tribune’s Paris correspondent sends despatches from the 8th up to the 19th. In that of the 11th he says :â€"â€"In my district no meat was distributed for four days, and in the next district my friends are dining on eats, rats and guinea pigs. The number of deaths is 1,800 weekly, of which 380 are from smalllpox. 0n the 13th Gen. Trochu announced to his friends that preparations for a. sortie were nearly complete, but the troops are dreadfully demoralized. On the 15th Favre published Gambetta’s despatch announcing the recapture of Orleans, and in addition said: “We are soon going to join hands with our brethren of the depart- ments, and with them deliver the country.” 0n the 14th inst. the sharpshooters in Gen Trochu’s army made a reconneisance from Paris as far as Champigny. At that point a. large body of Prussians was en- countered. After a. sharp action the Prus- smns were dlslodged, and the stores collected there destroyed. The Parisians returned to camp without serious loss.

It is denied that the Army of the Loire is towards Paris. The commands of Bourbaki, Fleury and Michel, in the north of France, have been suppressed, and the entire district assigned to Gen. Fol-re. Bonrbaki is expected at Tours to take command of the 18th Army Corps of the Army of the Loire, but Man- teufTel’s presence at Gisors prevents him from joining his new command.

One hundred and sixty prisoners were taken. Munition and baggage waggons were also captured. Four were killed and twelve wonnded on our side.

This resembles a piano,having akey board of twenty-five notes, each an- swering to a letter in the alphabet, several of which can be used for stops and numbers. The most frequently occurring letters are situated toward the centre, so that an operator need rarely move his hand from one position. Great speed is thus ob- tained, and the advantages of this invention are manifestly great, as, if necessary, a printed copy of the forwarded message can be had by the sender of a message.â€" Leader. The Tribune Vienna correspondent, on the 22nd, says it is reported that the refusal of Turkey to cooperate with England is oflicinlly contradicted; also, the statement that Beust had submitted the propositions for a European Congress. Austria, it is asserted, though desiring peace, will act promptly with other powers. NEW YORK, Nov. 23.â€" A Tribune special from Constantinople, on the let, says there is very little excitement and no expectation ofimmediate war. The impression prevails, however, that Turkey’s course will be dic- tated by England. .4 a A "“'“' The Morning Post has confirmation, con» firming the report, that Italy will act in concert with England and Austria. Seini-oflicial statements have been Jreceiyed from Vienna today. It is denied that Aus- tria. has proposed a conference relative to the Eastern question. It, is also denied that Italy declines to (lo-operate with England and Austria, for enforcing the provisions of the Paris treaty. The Times has a special from Constanti nople, saying the Sultan invokes the inter- position of the guaranteeing parties. mu 1" The Telegraph says the Russian reply is expected on Thursday.

VI'V'I.‘ ll“. ‘ 1) 1 no ~ x. The Herald’s special, dated London, Nov. 21, . ys,: Earl Russell writes to the Times to-day, approving of Earl Granville’s firm and unanswerable despatch, and urging that more authority if necessary be conferred upon the Crown to call out the militia. He considers that a real emergency exists when the master of a great power assumes the right to abrogate the treaty binding the chief States of Europe. He points out the large number of Russxan troops moving to the frontier of Turkey, and suggests that 100,000 militia, in addition to the militia re- serve, be called out.

VIENNA, Nov. 2l.â€"â€"The excitement here concerning the Eastern question continues.

LONDON, Nov. 21.â€"The Pod déhies that Italy has refused to join England and Aus- tria. in their opposition to Russqu pretensions LONDON, Nov. 20.â€"A warlike feeling decidedly prevails over England. An im- portant division exists in the cabinet on the Russian question which will likely lead to a. dissolution of the Ministry. Lord Granville insists that England must now put down her foot firmly or forever give up her voice in European affairs. He holds that the preent attitude of Russia means a future if not an immediate prosecution of her loug‘cherished designs in the East. The present moment is the only time when England can hope to resist successfully a policy against which heretofore she has fought at a great sacri- fice of lives and treasure. Messrs. Lowe and Cardwell are positively arrayed against war on the present issue. Incessant activity prevails at the War Office in Pall Mall and at the Admin-ality in Whitehall. The Duke of Cambridge has taken up his quarters at the War Oflice,and all the Lords of the Admirality remain con- stantly at Whitehall. Work goes on night and day to prepare for war. A war meeting is to be culled at the Man- sion House early next week. The Govern~ ment is insisting that Rusaia shall withde her pretensions or be compelled to do so. All the ironclads and a number of wooden vessels and transports are fitting up for sea. A statement on the condition of the naval reserve, coast guard and pensioners shows that there are 23,800 experienced sailms who could be brought into active service within a fortnight. Large orders received here from Russia for pig iron, cannons, shot, lead, antimony and copperjyiH not be filled. Snider breech-loaders are being served out to volunteers and regiments.

Carson gave the opening lecture of the course arranged by our Mechanics’ Insti- ‘ tute, on Tuesday evening last. Although a snow-storm prevailed during the even- ing, the attendance was large and respec- table. The subject of the lecture, “ Les- sons from the life of George Peabody,” was an interesting one. The rev. gentle man handled it in a masterly manner, drawing valuable lessons and advice from the experience of this great and good man. Mr. Carson did ample justice to his subject, so much so that we purpose publishing the lecture in its entirety. On the first page will be found the com- mencement, and the balance will be given next week.

While the struggle between Prussia and France is slowly but surely approaching a crisis, the autocrat of Russia has not allow- ed it to terminate before he made his de- mands to annul part of the Treaty of 1856. The stand Russia has taken has created no little anxiety among the Euro- pean powers, and especially in England. There were and are five powers, besides Russia parties, to the arrangement made in ’56, immediately at the close of the Crimean war. If, unfortunately, war should actually arise out of this question, it is impossible to conjecture what extent the complications and sacrifice of life and treasure it would entail upon England. A Congress of the European powers is proposed, and, it is to be hoped, that diplomacy will avert the threatened rupture, and England be saved from takâ€" ing up the sword to maintain the Treaty, which Russia says is unjust. Our own ' Canada would occupy an unenviable place, for England’s extremity might be our neighbor’s opportunity, and be com- pelled to recall her former chivalry, and again defend herself against her national enemy. Counsels of peace, we trust,will prevent, and Britain spared an unprofit- able and unnecessary expenditure of blood and money, as would inevitably be en- ; tailed upon it. The reply from the ‘ Russian Minister, to Lord Granville’s despateh, has been received ; it is con- ciliatory, but persists in repudiating the objectionable points of the Paris Treaty. The war feeling in England is on the increase, and preparations are everywhere hurried forward. Austria and Italy, by yesterday’s telegraphic news, will co- operate with England in the enforcement of the treaty. Britain will do her whole ‘ duty at this crisis, and if there should be no help for it, and fight we must, it will be victory or death without dis- grace. l @1119 éfimfia igwam. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.

The man in the house after a hasty search, could find ‘only a couple of torn leaves of the good book, which he laid on the table, with the remark: “I really didn’t know I ‘was so near out of the bible.” Our read- ers, whenever their stock of Bibles or other books run low, should send to HUN- TER & 00., Hinsdale, N. H., for their catalogues. They supply and mail, pre- paid, at the very lowest prices, Books, Novels; Song Books, Albums, Colored Pictures, Photographs, Notions, and everythng of the kind. Special atten- tion given to supplying Scientific, Medi- cal and Miscellaneous works. Catalogues free.
