economy and duiy of every man, wtm has
not n superabundance oi wealih, to secuie
to his family, at least a few thousaud dol
lars. by an Insurance on his Life. This
Compmyhave aocn mmodaied their terms
of payment to meet the ability of the poor,
ihe laboring man, as well as the monied
man. The terms are 23 per cent less than
most Companies, and payable yearly, half
yearly or quarterly, so that the laboring
man may save, or lay by, a few dollars eve
ry three mouths to pay his premium, and
thus secure to his family, a« his death, a
competence of this world’s goods, which he
can nevei expect to do by the I mils of his

garded as an economic business measure,
securing to one’s family, after his death,
that competence and support which he is
unable to lay up for them while he tives.

BY JOHN 0 WHITTIER.
It wa* late in mild October, and the long autum
nal rain
Had<teft the summer harvest-fields all green
with grass again ;
The first sharp frost had fallen leaving all the
woodland gay
With the hues of summer rainbows, or the mead
ow-fiowersof May.
Through a thin, dry mist that morning, the sun
rose broad and red,
At first a rayless disc of fire, he brightened as he
sped;
Yet, even his noontide glorr fell chasenoJ
atttlbubJued.
On the corn fielde end orcharde, and the softly
pictured wood.
And all that quiet afternoon, slow sloping to the
night,
He wove with golden shuttle the haze with ye.*
low light;
Slanting through the painted beeches, he glori
fied the hill;
And beneath, it pond and meadow lay brighter,
greener still.
And shouting boys in woodland haunts caught
glimpses of that sky.
Flecked by the many timed leaves, and laughed,
they knew not why ;
And school girls, gay with aster-flowers,beside
the meadow brooks,
Mingled the glow of autumn with the sunshine
of sweet looks.
Frora spire and born, looked westerly the patient
weather-cocks :
But even the birches on the bill stood motionless
as rocks.
No sound was in the woodlands, save the squir
rel's dropping shell,
And the yellow leaves among the boughs low
rustling as they tell*
The summer grains were harvested; the stubble
fields lay dry,
Where JunMtfinds rolled, in light and abode,
the pale gteen waves of rye ;
But still on gentle hill-slopes, in valleys fringed
with wood,
Ungathered, b'eaching in the sun, the hoavy
corn crop stood.
Bent low by autumn's wind and rain , through
husks tha t, dry and sere,
Unfolded from their ripened charge, shown out
the yellow ear;
Beneath, the turnip lay concealed, in many a
verdant fold,
And glistened in the slanting light the pumpkin’s
tphere of guld
There wrought the busy harvesters; and many
a creaking Wain
Bore slowly to the long barn fliorita load of
husksaud grain ;
Till broad und red, as when he rose the sun sunk
down at last,
And like a merry guett's fare wall, the day in
brightness passed.
And In! as through the western pines, on mead
ow, stream and pond,
Flamed the red radiance of a sky, set all afire
beyond,
Slowly o'er the Eastern eea-blufls a milder glory
shone.
And the sunset and the moonrise were mi ngled
into one!
As thus into the quiet n ght the twilight lapsed
sway,
And dt-eperin the brightening moon the tranquil
shadows lay *,
From many a brown old farm house, and ham
let without name,
Their milking and their h>me; talks done, the
merry buskers came.
Swung o'er the heaped up harvest, from pi tch
forks in the mow.
Shone dimly down the lanterns on the pleasant
scene below;
Tbe growing pile of busks behind, the golden
ears before,
And laughing eyes and busy hands end brown
cheeks glimmering o'er.
Half hidden in a quiet nook, serene of look and
heart,
Talking their old times o’er, tbe old men sat
apart—
While up and down the^unhusked pile, or nest
ling in its thsde.
At hide-and-seek, with laugh and shout, the
happy children played.
Urged by tbe good host’s daughter, a maiden
young end fair,
Lifting tv light her sweet bine eyes and pride
of a»lt brown hair
The master of the village school, sleek of hair
and smooth of tongue,
Toth* quaint tone of some old psalm,a husking
ballad sung.
Something must be Dose.—The ed
itor of the Provideoce Journal, in a satir

. TREES.
Their Usee, Economical, Ac.
No. HI.
On this part of my subject I need not
enlarge. The lane mention of some of
the various uses of timber, will be suffi
cient both to show the value of trees, and
the need of their preserraji in. Among
the various uses may be mentioned, fuel,
fences, bridges, docks, piles, ships, manu
fuctorirg purposes, and buildings of ev
ery description. Hence, not only one
cause of their rapid consumption, but
also an argument for their judicious use
and careful preservation. How the mat
ter stands in our own immediate vicinity,’
is well known. The price of fuel is al- |
ready severely felt by the poor, and the
evil is increasing, both in degree and ex •
tent. The difficulty of procuring mate
rials for manufacturing put poses is, in
some places, already great, and must go
on increasing indefinitely ; while in oth
ers, the manufacture of some articles has
entirely ceased from the failure of mate
rials, or is continued only bv their impor
tation. Our oak and pine forests are fast
disappearing, and hence our materials for
docking, shipbuilding, <fec. are growing
scarce. Our furnaces, forges, railroads,
(to which there seems to De no end.)
steamboats, and steam operations f ev
ery kind, nre annually consuming their
thousands and their hundreds of thou
sands of cords of wood, even where the
supply for domestio purposes is bv no
means abundant, and where, to all ap
pearances, it must, at no distant da\, en
tirely fail.
What, then, will be M»e condition oil

eonsumption, and ruinous waste that is
n,*w going on. or to meet the wants ol
posterity by providing a new supply ? li
is useless to talk of our northern or west
ern forests—they are fast vanishing ns
our eastern have done; and what is left
of them will be wanted where they are.
Nor need we tay, thu the old World is
not destitute, although it has been mlmb
ited several thousand years; for in no
country has the waste and destruction o'
timber ever been c irried on at so merer
less and leekless a ratp, as in our own
Circumstances have not required it.. Tin
state and progress of o -tety have* no-.j
lendeiedit necessary. Nor do they even
to this day. 1 say necessary, because the
improvements and progress of the age.
especially in this country, seem to require
a (urge and inc easing consumption;
while the pursuits, or rather the ambition
of the age, stimulate to a too often reck
less and ruinous waste. At the same
lime if is very necessity should be a stand
ing argument in litter of the preservation
of our forests, and against all needless
destruction; and should also prompt the
present generation to adopt some judi
cious measures for their renewal, wher
ever there is any prospect of a growing
scarcity. But (he only measures that
can be adopted are. the cultivation of a
new growth, either by planting, or pro
tecting the self-planted, or both. Pre
serve, then, as far as possible, the for
ests that we have, and plant and cultivate
whenever there is suspected occasion or
demand, for the good of ourselves and of
posterity. H.

" Bury me in the Oarden.—There
was sorrow there, and tears were in eve
ry eye; and there were low, half-sup
presscd sobbings heard fiom every cor
ner of the room ; but the little sufferer
was still; its young spirit was just on the
verge of departure. The mother was
bending over it in all the speechless yean:*
ings of paternal love with one arm un
der its pillow, and with the other uncon
sciously drawing the little dying girl
closer and closer to her bosom. Poor
thing! in the bright and dewy morning
it had followed out behind its father into
the Geld ; and, while he was there enga
ged in his labor, it had palled around
among tha meadow-flowers, and had
slues its bosom full, and all its burnished
tresses, will) carmine and lily tinted
things; and, returning tired to her fath
er's side, he had lifted k upon the loaded
cart; but a stone in the road fiad shaken
it from ita seal, and the ponderous, iron
rimmed wheels bad ground it into the

a quivering came over its limbs—one
feeble struggle, and alt was still.—Eliku

A New and Singular Clock.—We
have seen and examined a very singular
piece of mechanism in the form of a
clock or time piece, invented and manu
factured by Dr. W. H. Stanson, Practi
cal Dentist. It will keep the time ol
day, days of the week, days of the month,
and also the name of the month. But
the most peculiar feature is, it keeps the
odd days of the month, and also leap
year and the odd minutes of every moon,
so that it never requites setting. This
‘weTbelieve, fuwnever" been none with
any other time pieces made in this coun
try. The striking properties are no lo &
remarkable.
On either side of the temple is a door,
and at the h ur for striking the figure of
a Knight fully equipped in his panoply,
walks out of the door, which immediate
ly closes again, on a semicircular aiea,
and when in front of the temple lifts his
hand and strikes very d'stinctly the hour
of the day; he then resumes his cucuit,
and when he approaches the other door
it opens for his ingress, and then closes
as soon as he gets into the inner Court.
There are several other unique matters
connected with this ingenious piece of
mechanism which we cunnot notice at
this time.
Dr. Stanson never turned a piece of
brass or steel until he attempted this
work. He planned and worked out its
ind icate combinations without assistance
and lias made the whole of the structure
wiili his own hands—mostly at night,
during the past year.—Baltimore Pat'!
I riot.
The Contest in the Sooth.—The
Sow item Whig papers generally are but-,
ding manfully for the Union, and expos
ing the sophistry and folly of the “ Fire
Enters,” as they call the Disunionists,
with great effect. Their satire upon
southern fanaticism is most withering.
I'he following is a specimen. The Sum*
ter Riflemen, a valiant corps, in their owu
esteem, at a meeting of the company,
ut.sed sundry resolutions, offering then
ervices to the Governor of the State,
(South Carolina,) whenever they should
io called upon to fight the Northern men
in defence of Southern Rights and
Southein Honor.” Upon this a writei
at the Geoigiu, Macon Messenger, a Whig
papei, thus satirizes the gassy braggarts:
*• No weapon is more to be dreaded
than the Rifle in good hands. See what
brave Morgan did among the British by
ms Rifle Brigade in the Revolution. He
picked the enemy down like blackbirds
hi a rice field. Besides carrying a b ill
with precision twice the distance of a
musket, the rifle tears a man to pieces
without any hope from the Surgeon. A
cannon bad may take off the calf of a
man’s leg; a bayonet may pierco his bo
dy, and a musket shot may strike him in
sundrv places without killing him on the
spot. All these wounds may be healed.
Not so with the deadly Rifle. Where it
aims, there is the ball, and where the
ball is, there is death. With such conse
quences notified the General Government,
in case it resists Carolina ; and as many
poor wicked s„uls will be hurried into
eternity by the “.-unopter Riflemen,"
provided they get a crack at their ene
mies, would it not be better for the Gov
ernment to surrender at once to Carolina
as the coon did to Capt. Scott, and there
by save amuniuon and blood ! The pro
priety of this course wi'l be much fortified
if Gen. Quattlebum, of Texas celebrity,
is to command the Brigade to which the
I ** Riflemen ” are attached. TboPaixhan
! guns strike terror to the hearts of the
brave in a sea fight, and so do Rifles on
land. If Gen. Quattlebum cannot be
prevailed on to resign or to get sick, we
advise that no opposition be made to
South Carolina.”
^ j
tsr a most extraordinary action is
pending in the French Courts. It seem*
tnat wnen Louis Naj»oleoii was confined
m the fortress of Ham, he was informed
by some of the officials th it if he could
procute ten thousand pounds he could
fie released from his confinement. The
Duke of Brunswick furnished the Sash
and Louis Napoleon escaped. His serene
Hignness now wants the money back ;
HmJ his Excellency the Pr* idem, being
unwilling or unable to “fork up,” the
Duke has sued for the amount!
