The policy of England in her grand division of (be world, granting Europe to France, and reserving Aula and America to herself, will hardly find favor in the eyes of Lou ia Napoleon. Already he hu brought to light some records from which It is evident that during the reign of Louie XIV and later in 1809 the island waa ceded by the Persian Shahs to France upon certain con dition, but on such terms that an attack upon Persia by England would justify her churns to the possession of the bland. Tlio case Is a curious one, and what England will do remains to be seen. The leading journals and the people are oppos ed to the war. Whether the East India company is powerful enough to force he Into it, la dubious. Should she make the attempt, she will fiud it no easy task lo overturn an empire, whoso counsellors and Cabinet aro a match for ill her lords and ministers. 03 Young man, atick to your business.

Why that growin" recklessness of character ? Don't deceive yourself, dearfriend. You are in danger; and it is a kindness to tell you so. Thir ty thousand persons die every year in our country, simply because they do not drink enough to hurt thom. Half a million are ever pressing kard after, upon the crumb ung verge ot a drunkard a grave. Sever al millions mora are bending their eteps more or less rapidly m the same direction. You are one of the great crowd. You are a candidate for a place among the half minion ol actual drunkards. Think you that any one of the thron of modorato drinkers with whom you train, will admit that he drinks enough to hurt him I And yet from all this claw, do death and tho dovil take their pick.

A-ji . To be found at tlio ngency of I he Company, at A iUlVtlt T I'l'PV nnim tjrw.Vxn'.l the Tho Persian War. The present aspect of offiurs in tlie East is a curious one, and somewlmt knot ty in its complications. It will bo seen by every one that tlio declaration of tvnr nmilo ly England ngninst lVrsia bus brcn done bjr the influence and at the institution of tlio Eitst India company. The past recorcli of tbis company show adualimp niil. ih.i. , , , ' o Asiatic neighbors illy becoming so por. rful mi institution. Wherever there is the slhjhtost expeetnlion of deriving nd viintngeous cotmiiorciul intorconrso or of fluuing more wealth to their already over sowing coilers, thon thn most bare faced plans are at once iustitutcd nnd carried out to obtain it. It has always been a policy of this com pany and in fact of the English povem. mem so obtain possession of an island sit unled in the Gulf olf the North Eastern ahore of PerMn. This island is in the ! . s. meuiaie vicinity of sovcral flourishing commercial uopoia on the coast and its oe. cupntlon would be of great advantage t0 tbis company. Ilence the siege of Ilorat by tho Tersians is made the pretence as for a declaration of war aguinst JWiu bv V 1 I - r-ngiunu. Uut England has found that this sudden and rash step has awakened other powers with prior claims, and the prospects nre that if sh undertakes to wage war with rerrn'a, she must first dispose of France nd Kussia who are involved in this diplo. matio complication. The thunderer'a voice Las sunk almost to a whisper and the leading English Journals are condemning tneir policy. By treaty relations with Tenia, Russia is plaoed in a position which imperatively demands that ahe shall afford to that em pire her protection. Oace before in 1S39 Kussia thwarted the designs of England in taking this same island, and it is more tbsn jrobab'e that she will aain oornpel Krig. Oft" VV'e see by the Maine papers that crime nnd pauperism have greatly in creased in that S:nlo since the repeal of tho prohibitory law. It is expected that nn othnr prohibitory law will bo cnaclcJ by tne next Legislature. Value of tub Bio Farm.
