CULTIVATE THE MIND.
A HOME TRUTH—ORIGINAL.
of
The cnrticitics of the human miiul nro so
great, so vast ia tlio ninount of liJiowlede
it lr.nr require, that we pause in wonder ntul
tisk, "Why is it that wo Ct.d the mrtsa tf
iniuiltiriil so ij!iori!it ur.d besotted, grovel
lip.j; in tlio dust fcs it were, eenrte caring to
lot tlieir cyos look over the vast fields of
light and knowU'ge, in which they might be
reaper?, sc;v.e knowing a thottyht, cave
that which rc'atos to what they may cat,
drink ami wear?" For them no stars gleam
in tlio intellectual sky; for them no peans of
triumphant music are borne upon the breeze.
They seem to know bat liltle of inner life,
of the hidden genu of giralnoss which lies
within them, nnd to care less. They h';r
not, they e:u'0 net, f;r the fit ill small voice
wil'iin. wl.ieh is urging them to hoher and
better tilings. Hear not, did I Ray? Ah,
yes! there is a time in every human bein;;'s
life when the higher nature will ptin the
ascendency; but alas! it is often like the flit
ting gleam of the sun-benms upon the water
u ripple upon the oeeau o moment, and
they are gone.
How beautiful, how cheering the thought
that we arc not all of earth, that tho mind
(a. gem so delicate in its texture, ro brilliant
in its emanations,) will live forever! Glad
ly the immortal spirit grasps at tlus tho't;
hopefully it presses forward for a touch cf
inspiration from a higher world gives
strength to its wings, and on tho soul-propelling
breeze voices are borne: "bister,
brother, be of good cheer, press forward
with indomnitablc. courage, thou art not
working r.lcno for earth, but for heaven."
We are oft-times conscious of a something
existing within us which will not be bound
ed by earth, whien at all times threatens to
penetrate tho vail above us, find search in
to hidden misleries.
How .far our powers r-.nd capacities may
extend, it may not be ours to know, so mech
depends upon cultivation. Tho mind, which
will at first resemble the humble acorn, may
in time grow and expand like the majestic
oak, budding nnd branching, still yielding
f.uil for time and eternity. If it bo true
that tho mind is to live forever, and that
the body is to pass awpy, crumble to dust
in its mother earth, why csaU tho wants cf
tho body over those of the mind, and con
sider thorn of tho Prst importance? Ttue,
tho vpDts of the tor.y mint be attended to,
yet wc create for ouriselv03 many artificial
wants, to the detriment of both cur minds
and bod:es. This is net veil; we are thus
prostituting our higher natures to our lower.
Wo havo much to encourage us. The
past has sho-vr u.s what mind can do; the
present Las many discovctics and inven
tions; but the future; the gloriovs fnturo.
(that pine unsullied page, on which wc
should strive to impress our mark) may, if
wc ici'l it, unfold thoughts which are strug
gling for a ray of light amidst darkness and
obscurity thoughts soon giving placo to
deeds which will tell forever.
In the mansions of the human mind there
are many chambers; here and there, the
windows ore open, admitting tho sun light;
but many more are in the darkness, and al
most hidden by piles of rubbish which have
been accumulating for years. . Open! ch,
open! du.sk y hall.s, and 'let in tho sunbeams!
No sound, no light all is darkness, and the
weary owner lifts his carLh-c!ouded t-yes,
and murmurs: "The kev will not turn in the
lock; it matters little, there is nothing there
in." But tho f pub; 'toning angel replies:
"Not no, it is only the unskiilftdncss of the
hand which uses it. Arouse thee from thy
slothful ignorance, and reward will repay
thy exertions." But alas! many hearts make
no response, so the lute-low tones of the
spiril-voice are Lushed, and he p..srcs on
to another door, perhaps to meet with the
same repulse.
It is wisely ordered that wo must till the
soil of our minds ourselves; assistance we
may receive from others, but without our
own exertions nothing will be accomplished.
We must work with our own heads, hearts,
and hands, if we expect to got through tho
world honorably and nobly if wc expert
to writo our r.arncs in proud characters on
the scroll of tho future. Yes, wc must till
the ground, plant the seed, and wait patient
ly no, I mean work patiently, for results.
"Ah, we have not time to cultivate the
mind," t.ay many. What an assertion! Take
time; steal a few moments from your other
occupations; if you havo not time, it is be
cause you have wasted so much of it in yom
past life.
Yes, the mind must have eomething to
feed upon. If tho beautiful flowers, whose
seed God hath planted, are not cultivated,
rank weeds will i-pring up, and the waters
of bitterness will overflow the soul. No
. time! brother? Yet you can find time to
spend in useless games, in quarreling over
polities and worldly ulThirs, and too often
(to your shame be it said) in abusing the
other sex, to vhom you owe a debt of grat
itude, and wlioso errors you aro v many
wnya helping to perpetuate, by not encour
aging those who aro under your immediate
iufliienco and protection to lead a purer and
more intellectual life.
Woman, as she nov is, reeds a great deal
of encouragement. Thousands for the want
of it, have sunk far below what they might
have been. The mars need more ambition
properly directed. Cultivate your rcasoj
faculties, sister; 6tudy cause and effect,
and you will avoid many rocks on which
you aro now in danger of being stranded.
Woman ia too often tanght -that she is an
inferior being; that is, in mental capacity;
and we all know what effect oducat.on has
upon the human mind. Once impress per
sons with tlieir inferiority, teach them they
are inferior beings, and you destroy their
ambition, make thorn rowe, tools to work
1 or evil, just n tho i
round them.
The bright-oyed, light-hearty1. li;i!o girl
dreams not cf inferiority, hence wo find her
in bo many caes eclipsing and bearing .
way tHf palm fr.-m these cf the eppcaite
sox, who are own elder than hei eelf. Bu',
alas! to often, here at this important period
in her intellectual struggle, a straive pys
tmt of education is commenced; the child is
taught to cor.si Jer Let-self woman, before
slio is one, either physically cr mcntaliy
before she knows scarcely anything of wo-1
man's duties. At a period when her mind
is just rreptirSmt to reason and philosophise.
she thinks of other things. If the daughter
does not think of marriage, father and moth
er will be pretty sure to think cf it for her;
a chntiee presents itself "better talic it!"
(so reasons Lu'.f the wurkl,) "you may never
got another, nnd perhaps live and die an oi l
maid, and oh! Unit would be horrible!"
Ah, fund j events, could your daughter's
future life pass iu panoramic view before
your eyes, you would think there wet e some
conditions even worse than that of being an
old maid! Tho fretful, peevish wife, with
overtasked energies and ha',;"-porformod du
t'es, is very often the result of these early
m.rri:ig',s. liven if her homo education has
not been neglected, there are many duties
of which she knows nothing. Tho beauti
ful blossoms of early promise are clicked up
with the weeds of vexation and discontent,
and in time such ruiudn aro very apt not to
ascend much higher than the smoko of the
cooking-stove.
There are exceptions to this rule, among
these who make ea'-ly marriages, and they
aliow the natural strength of woman'-i char
acter. Setae have been surrounded by fa
vorable circumstances, and had but few
cares; others are possessed of so much in
tellectuality and energy of character that
the mind will unfold itself in tpito of adverse
circumstance?; yet in many cases their phya-
rica! strength give;j way, and they sink into
oe-rly graves.
As we m irk the evr.nescr.r.t rays of such
aspiring ge nius, we lortn some idea of whet
rich legacies of thought such women would
have bequeathed to the world, what bright
stars they might have gleamed in the intel
lectual sky, if they had only waited till their
minds were better matured before they took
upon them.. elves so many new duties.
This subject is universally acknowledged
to bo otic of the greatest importance, nlfeet
ing. as it does, in a great measure, not only
the mind of woman, but of man not only
the present, but coming generations. In
reading the lives cf great men, we find that
in most cases, if not all, they have possess
ed roc titers with cupetior minds. The gc
mus which they havo transmitted to their
ihr'.r sons shadow ferdi what the mother
miivlit have been hud she possessed the same
privilege,.
Then lot us cultivate our minds. Tine,
wo have many barriers to oppose, nnoy ob
structions to overcome, yet we should re
all tho means which lie in our power, and
press firmly onward. If our efforts are ever
so weaka! first if our spirit-wings are just
able to ascend an inch in the world of light
and krotvk-Jge still we have mauc a be
ginning, and have gained something by tho
fetrv.gglc; and through all the succeeding
ages of eternity we vd! havo cause to re
joice that iho.-e efforts were made.
Far, far up the bill of science, lights aro
gleaming, and forms of beauty meet our
view. Sweet fountains are gushing from
tho rocks, whoso waters havo a soul inspii
ing power, ami bid its 'drink again. t'lecp
and toilsome is the way up the rugged dill's,
but far, far up above, their summits ore
crowned with laurel-wreaths; let us press
forward; snatch from their rocky bights,
and twino them round our brows. And
there will be a time, when the freed spirit
will have burst its earthly chains; when on
the banks of the river of death our little
bark shall be moored, and wc fhtdl pass
over the dark v titers, and enter into a sphere
of inoro extended fulness. Ah! then we
shall drink fiom the fountain of eternal
knowledge, and search into hidden mistcrie.s.
Oh ! how many rer.sons thero arc lor iml

and applause Even in the matter of this
great crisis, which threatens our very country
and existence, there is an attempt going
forward to raise a political party upon it.
"Why don't you rally up to sustain this gov
ernment '!" "Why, iho.;e abolitionists kin
dled this lire." " Well, what difference does
that, make '! Does it burn any more than
the Democrats had kindled ii ?'' 'lho ques
tion is. how can we arrest the flame; ; not
who kindled it? Your church is on lire,
and yon r.re summoned to rave it. The
house is on lire ami burning, and threatening
the dorU'uclion of ilia building besidoit, so
that
"The blackners of ashes shall mark where it stood,
And a wild mother pcruum o'er her famishing
brood."
But tho Baptists pay the Methodists set it,
and the Presbyterians F!y tho Baptists set
it, and tho Methodists say that both of the
others set it, or might j'avo prevented
and no one will endeavor to extinguish the
flames! Whut a spectacle for a Christian
people ! We hear the cry. of "fire," and tho
engines rattling, and tho cry of ulurru arises
from all, but the great majority hang 6ay, "I
didn't set it on fire. I told thein that the
building would get on firo if thty didn't
look out, and I shan't help put it out." But
I hold it is of no coD6equer:co befw tho fire
came it is burning. It ia not Mr. Lincoln's
house, bur it belongs to the A merican
people not only tg the present generation,
but to generations to coma thxoubout ths

Senator Carlile on the Habeas
Corpus Question.
I
a
Hon. .Teh:t Carl ile, Senator from Virginia,
under the pew f-.laie government, gives bin
opinion on tho legality of the President's
action in suspending the writ of hapeaa
c.crpup, in following words;
"I believe the. President acted not only
within tho strict line of constitutional duty,
in icfusii g to acknowledge the command cf
the judiciary in the writs of habeas corpus
directed to the military who had in chargo
lb" bodies of those accused of treasonable
conduct, but if he had not done so.be would
have been untrue to tho Constitution and
his oath of office, lie is sworn to protect
defend the Constitution, aud to see that the
laws are faithfuly executed. If a conspiracy
exists tn destroy tho Constitution and ob
struct the due cxeeiitic n of the law?, it would
be very strange indeed if ho had not tha
right to priest and detain the conspirators,
but Lad the right to a.-semble armies, and
upon tho hold of battle to shoot not only tha
com pirat- is themselves but thousands of
others, tho dupes and victims of the origina
tors ol rebellion. It would be a libel upon
the illustrious authors of the Constitution,
to suppose thev wouid require of the Presi
dent muier the solemnities of an oath, tho
pel I'onnence of a duty and notto clothe him
with full and ample powers to keep his oath,
ihe maxim mt. rannu tilcnt leges, is as old
a.s the law itself, and was an well known to
the founders of our government, as it is to
their dcscendi nts."
