It was fed by hand, but when turned down, the hen was always ready to take charge of it, and thus it was reared. These in stances might be multiplied to a considerable ex tent, showing the active benevolence of some ani mals; but the following f»ct will prove the exist ence of a combined intelligence in creatures, which I have reason to believe has been hitherto un noticed by naturalists as existing amongst the feathered creation. The accuracy of the anecdote may be vouched tor. In the island of Ceylon there is to be found a very cunning and sensible crow, somewhat smaller than our own native one, having a glossy back, and altogether rather an en gaging, pretty bird. Now, in the yard of the Governor of Ceylon, a dog was one day amusing himself by gnawing a bone, the scraps of meat upon which attracted the attention of one of these crows. It alighted on the ground, hopped around the dog and the bone, and evidently waited for an opportunity to seize the latter. The dog, how^- ever, was on his guard, and by certain growls and probably angry looks, which the bird understood no doubt, piotccted his property. The crow was too cunning and too hungry to be baffled. He flew away but soon returned with a companion. They hopped up to the dog, when the fresh ar rival watched his opportunity and gave a sudden pull at the dog’s tail. Not being used to such an insult, he suddenly turned round, in order to see who had taken this liberty with him. The bone was for a moment left unprotected, and was im mediately seized by the first cunning crow, who flew away with it, joined by his companion, and they doutle.ss had a merry feast upon it.

June 4, 1860. 23tf The Xecetsity of Labor.—The notion is false that genius can secure its aims without labor. All the great minds who have lett their marks upon the history of the world’s progress, have paid for their success and notoriety by the price of unremitting toil and labor. Napoleon Bona parte worked hard and incessantly, and has been known to exhaust the en*^rgies ot' several secre taries at uue time Charles XIL, ot Sweden, fre quent! v tivi'l out all his officers. The Duke of \\’^«.iliii;^rto!i wa.s the hi-rdcst working man in the Per.in>uia; hi.^ energies never flagged. Milto.i, from his youth, applied hiaiselt with such intie- fatigabie application to the study of letters that it occ tsioned weakne.ss of sight and ultiuaate blind ness. The labor of Sir Walter Scott is evident in the number of his literary productions, and it is apparent to every reader that the immense massjs of general information which abound throughout his inaltitudinous works can only ' have been acquired by dint of many years' hard study. Byron Wiis in the habit ot reading even at his meals. Luther made it a rule to translate a verse of the Bible every day. This soon I brought him to the completion of his labors, and ; it was a matter of astonishment to Europe, that ia the multiplicity of his other labors, 'besides traveling, he could find tbe time to prepare suc^ a surprising work. Newton and LocKe pursued their studies I with tireless efforts, and Pope sought retirement so tiiat he might pursue his literary operations without interruption and distraction. Industry 1.S e.>sentiai to all; by forming the habit of doing something useful every day, a man increases his own amount of happiness and enlarges that of others about him. Many ones, by a judicious use of the odd moments, those little vacancies in every day life, which occur to all, have rendered them selves famous among their fellows. Nature is preserved iu its proper working condition hy con* slant exertion, and man, to keep in a healthful condition of mind and body, must exert his men- ]\'otice. vEN up and committed as runaways, on the 30th of tal and physical faculties; the constant employ- lay 1860, to the Jail of Cumberland County, two . ujgjjj Qf t})(» gfgt ^JU give the strength of charao- H HOLMIiS & ROBINSO.N’S Oltt HUKSU STAGE UNK TO kENAXSVlLU, VIA WARSAW, IS the shortest and most expeditious for travelers going North or South.

The ‘Blood Food,’ is one of the great est medicines of the age, and is rapidly driving out of the market all the quack nostrums of modern times. Its efficacy is so great, and its superiority so justly acknow ledged. that it is found difficult to supply the immense and increasing demand for the article. Dr. Eaton’s celebrated ‘Infantile Cordial,’ is a medicine prepared by a regular physician of eminence in his profession, and one who has devoted his life to the peculiar phases of Infantile diseases.
