It suggests tbatthe 4county of Guilfurjd, by impli cation other counties, be "divided fntodistricts or townships of convenient size, each township in addition td a moderate tax for the whole county, having power: to levy and collect a tax as large as the people in their tovjn meetings may be willing io pay' Though tliis plan had not before occurred to us, it strikes us as an ex cetlent one. if this were the cas, many dis tricts would double the ums noiv raised by them. It is eminently democratic in principle, Locofocoish l-giving the ! people of the several; districts and townships the nower to reffulale their own taxes. It. would From the St Louis Republican.

We learn from Henry county, Illinois, that, a series of outrages have recently been commit led upon the Swedish colony located in that county, and that ithey are threatened with ex termination from the county.

THE FATHEir AN INSTRUCTIVE SKETCH. li is the duty lof mothers to sustain the reverses of fortnne. Frequent and sudden as they have been in our owrj country', 4t is irjiprtant that young females should jHrnijess siivc cmployiiic nt, by which they might obtain a livelihood in cuso they should be reduced to the ne ccsbily of exporting themstlves. When families re unexpectedly reduced from uffliinice to poverty, how pitifully fcontcinptiblo it is to see the mother desponding r helpless, and permitting her daughter to embarrass ') those whom it is their duty to assist and cheer. . " I have lost nij; whjKle fortune," said a merchant s )i returned one evening to hif home ; " we can no long er keep our carriage. We must leave this large house. The children can no longer go to expensive schools. Yesterday I was a rich man, to-day, there is nothing I can call my awn." J, " Dear husband," said the wife, " wo are still rich in each other and our children. Money may pass away, but God has. given ua aj bolter trefisuro in those active hands and loving hearts." i Dear fitlirr." uuid he diildren. do not look soso- 1- ber.'i We will help you get a living." "jWhat can you do poor things"?" raid he. MjYH shall fcer, you.iihaltoc," nsu'orrd werl roi CPS. 44 It is a pity if vvc have been to school for nothing. J low can the father of eight children bp poor? We shall work and make you rich again." ":I shall help," saidjhe younger girl, hardly fonryears old. j " I will not have any new things bought, and I shalj sell my great dull." The heart of the htu;band and father, which had sunk within his bosom like a stone, was lifted up. The sweet entljusinsm of tiio scene cheered him, and his nightly prayer wan like a song of praise. They left their stately house. The servants were dismissed- Pictures and plat?, rich carpets and furniture, The strength of an elephant is eual to its bulk, for it can with great ease draw a load that six horses can not move ; it can readily carry four thousand pounds weight y upon its tusk alone it can support near a thousand. Its f. tee may also be estima ted by the velocity of its motion :ompared with the mass of Us body. It can go in its ordinary pace as fast a a horse at an easy trot, and when pushed it can move as swiftly as a horse at full gallop. It can travel with ease fifty or sixty miles a day, and v hen hard pushed almost double that distance. , : ly. Thus probably it will be for a long time. A tax large enough to support tb schools will be hailed with, joy in some parts of the country, and meet with anathemas in others. What can be done' under such circumstances as this ? It is unjust to hind back a part; and compel them to keep pace with-those who barely move at all, or who, like the crab, move backward. For this reason, we desire to. see Guilford looked upon the vocation of an bumble mechanic, as beneath tin dignity of a gen tleman, forgeting. meanwhile, that the taint of ihe father attaches to the son ! Pride of this kind, never finds a resting place, save in a weak brain, and mani fests itself in a perverse temper. There are many young men in our towns and villages, (and young ladies too) who seem to be proud of the wealth of their parents while theirown reputations would be soiled by associating with the sons of mechanics.
