[Written Ibrthe PitUton Gaaette.] OLD SONGS. him an important member of the last Congress. He stood between conflicting parties, and to an extent that few men could have done, acted the part of a peacemaker. There was not a man from the north or the south, of either party, that ha could not approach with confidence. While his position as a conservative northern man was fully understood, he commanded the respect of all parties, and his position gave him more to do than he had really strength to perform. A gentleman from New York, who spent five or six weeks in Washington during the session of Congress, and who had abundant opportunities for observing the position and the efforts of Mr. Scranton in Congress, made this remark to me, 44 Mr. Scranton died a martyr to his country." The truth is, he broke down in his unwearied and exhausting efforts to carry forward those gTeat railroad enterprises that connect us with the valley of the Mississippi, the Northern Lakes and the Atlantic coast, and that are now unfolding the wealth of our valley. He went to Congress contrary to his own inclinations, with a broken constitution ; and his efforts there to serve and to save his country no donbt hastened his death. But his work was done. How Men Expand in the West. One is often amused, in traveling in the western States, to meet with a distinguished lawyer or politician, perhaps a Judge or Congressman, produced (and no sham pro! duction either) from what was known in ' some district school at the East as merely a tonguey lad, or at best, a college boy, endowed with some little native brass, it may be, but foreshadowing no more distinction in the world than forty-nine others in his class of fifty. A physician, who now stands confessedly at the head of the faoulty in one of the largest oities of the West, went there some twenty years ago, without friends, without even a college diploma to recommend him — merely a tall, green Yankee, who had thoroughly read medicine, and oould read a man. He, and his friends, and his native New England, owe his expansion and elevation to the formative powor of the West. In the same city, where it was our lot to preach half a day for a brother minister and college mate, (a distinguished D. D., by the way, whose distinction had all been acquired after he went out there,) in answer to questions artlessly asked respecting the general habits of the congregation as hearers of the word, we are told the story of a lawyer in his flock, who was so very exacting, and had such a lofty standard of pulpit exoellcnce, that he had beeome a terror, not to "evil doers" merely, but to all who could not do extremely well. And so quick was his perception of any defect, that in nine cases out of ten he ebuld tell, or thought he could, by the way in which the preacher read his first hymn, or a chapter in the Bible, at the opening of the service, whether he was fit to preach; and if not, he, the lawyer, did not feel bound to keep awake, and had often been known to show other less equivocal signs of disgust. It was impossible, after hearing all this, not to feel annoyed at the thought of preaching in such a presence. We bethought us of David, with his five smooth stones and sling, going to meet a giant whose spear was like a "weaver's beam/' but oould hardly be solaced with the hope that, like him, we possessed a missile that would penetrate either his head or heart. We remembered to have once preached to Daniel Webster, and found hiui an attentive hearer; but then, while we could not question his intellectual equality with this "second Daniel come to judgment," it was remembered thst he of Marshfield was proverbially indulgent in his criticisms on ministers, which thing it was dear fiom the pastor's showing, was not the habit of this formidoble personage. Several, times during the sermon, and in several different pews, imagination saw the man; for neither his name, nativity, nor place in Churoh was told us. On leaving the pulpit we were accosted by a young man, remembered as a student in Monson Academy Borne ten years previous, when we had the honor of serving on the board of trustees. To our utter surprise, it afterwards appeared that this was none other than that same " Ooliah of Oath," grown to this stature from that academy-boy since he came into the West. In another locality—a rising young city—we found in almost everybody's mouth the name of a certain individual of remarkable shrewd business tact, of large enterprise, and the owner of an immense landed estate, with any number of tenants and employees at his ooutrol.— He had built an eighty-thousand-dollar hotel in the young city of his adoption, at which he boarded. We, too, had taken lodgings at the same house. Judge of our astonishment, when the dinner hour came, to find this western nabob at our elbow, the identical person whom we had known in one of the obscureest towns of Eastern Massachusetts, himself an obscure youngster, with no more promise than soores of others in that place, who, in continued obscurity, "Along the oool sequestered vale of life, Jtratagema in Deer Hunting, notber very successful method of deer , which is practiced a good deal in *ely populated distrcta of Texas C?xico, where the game 5a abundant, accustomed to gracing in the Vicinity and hopes, is by making use of a ind tractable horse or male, and id aa near the deer aa can conve be done, without' giving alarm three hundred yards,) the hunteC BUSINESS CARDS.

With the stick he ia enabled to guide his horse, stop him, or turn him in any direction he may desire. In this manner he proceeds in a slow walk, carefully covering himself behind the horse, and gradually bearing towards the deer.

Mlyl boots mt*. SHOES. NEW During the approach the deer will sometimes take alarm, raise their heads, and east a startled and inquiring look at the horse. Should this occur, the hunter will at onee stop, and allow his horse to orop the grass while he himself lowers his beta so as to be entirely screened from the deer. As soon as they retain their composure and resume ther grazing, he proceeds again, and will generally bo in time to get within short rifle range, when he will stoop down and fire under his horse's belly or neck.— If, however, the stalk-horse has not been trained to this particular method of hunting, or is alarmed at the report of firearms, the hunter should carry the lariat rope in his hand, and when he is sufficiently near the deer, drop the guiding stiok, and allow his horse to pass on, while he remains upon the ground behind, and plaoes himself in a position to fire the instant he is uncorered by the horse. I have often hunted in this way, and with good success. I observed that, after a herd had been stalked several times, they became wary, after which it was necessary to unsaddle before commencing the approach. Gentlemen's Furnishing Store, WINCHESTER 4s CO. AHD I wish to speak of him as a Christian, for as such I knew him, haying been his pastor for a number of years. He was not forward in expressing publicly his religious views and feelings, but he was a man of deep, earnest and consistent piety. Much in his life and manner that was attributed by men who did not know him to worldly policy was the result of a Christian spirit. His love of Christ was appareut in the prayer meeting, at his own family altar, in his correspondence, and in every benevolent enterprise with which he was in anv way connected. He recognized continually an overruling Providence and looked to Tiod for a blessing on all he undertook.— Early in the history of Scran ton, when business prospects were very dark, he remarked to a minister staying with him, "I have faith to believe that we will sucoeed in our business enterprise, because we have entered upon it with a desire to do good and in reliance upon God." As Washington went forth to battle relying ob the God of battles for sueccss, so we are persuaded Mr. Scran ton entered on all his enterprises. Self-aggTandizement was not with him the great end of life, but the glory of God and the good of his fellowmen. What Burke is reported to have said of Roekingham, may with truth be said of Mr. Sorantoo, " lie was a man to be held in remembrance, for he did not live for himself." Sewing. MBS.

STLRMLB, Another successful but not very sportsman like method of deer-stalking, is resorted to by the unscrupulous pot-hunters in western Texas and Mexico, and which is so entirely different from any other I have heard of, that is worthy of a notive for its originality. It consists in making use of a dry and stiff oxhide, to one end of which a rope is attached. A yoke of well trained and gentle oxen are then hitched to the rope, and the hunter drives oat into the prairies where the deer resort. When he discovers a herd, and has approached as near as can be without disturbing them, he seats himself upon the hide, and without speaking or making any noise, directs his team with his whip towards the game. During the approach ne allows his cattle to move slowly, and occasionally to stop and crop the grass. He is well screened by the oxen and the prairie grass, and will find it « very easy matter to drive within a short rifle distance without being discovered. After killing a deer, he places it upon his drag and drives on in search of others. GEORGE R.

He had been anticipating death for four or five years, and since the revival of religion in the valley three years ago, which he was accustomed to speak of as the most delightful season of his life, he has kept his house in order. He felt deeply and gratefully the confidence reposed in him by the people of this community, and in a letter which he wrote reoently, he says, " My daily prayer to God is, that I may be kept humble and that I may be enabled to live near to Qod." The last time I exchanged pulpits with the pastor in Soranton, Mr. Scranton was present morning and evening, although in delicate health, and with a warmth and cordiality peculiar to his nature he expressed the pleasure be felt in the services of the sanctuary. He was one of that little band of Congressmen who during all tho political excitement of the past winter, found time to meet for prayer. Since he became a resident of this valley his infiuenoe has been felt in every department of our christian effort. Tho erection of a house of worship was among his first efforts after coming here.— While warmly attached to his own church be felt interested in the success of all, and to the extent of hife ability aided all. There are but few churches or seminaries of learning in this part of the country, belonging to any denomination, that he has not helped. The noble religious institutions of Soranton speak as no words can of his love for the cause of Christ. They all bear the impress of his noble, generous, christian spirit. His life illustrates a great truth not sufficiently understood, via : that devotion to busines» and devotion to Ood are not incompatible. We have few such business men as Mr. Scranton, and too few such christian men. (First Door East of Greenwich Street), NEW YORK Elmer H. Garbutt, Julius D. Koberts, HON. GEORGE W. SCRANTON.

Scranton departed this life. His death, which is a national calamity, falls most heavily upon this community. His relation to us as our Representative in Congress, his relation to the business interests of this part of the country, and his connexion for a number of years with this congregation, while Scranton and Pittston were united under one pastor, have suggested to me the propriety of a brief notice of him from this pulpit. It is now almost seventeen years sinco I first became acquainted with Mr. Scranton. He was then in connexion with others, and under trying circumstances, laying the foundations of Scranton, now the most populous and prosperous town in northern Pennsylvania. While he did not possess \ealth, he had business habits, energy and principles that were worth more to him in carrying out his plans than wealth. His advantages in the way of soholastic training had been limited, and yet his education fitted him eminently for the work to which he was oalled. Like nearly all great and useful men, he was "self-cducatea." Prominent among those elements of character which secured for him suoccss in life were industry and indomitable perseverance. He nevor calculated to fail in anything he undertook, ond yet he would not descend to unworthy means to effect his ends. His candor, sincerity and truthfulness secured for him the confidence of all who knew him. His disposition was to look on the bright side of things, and he possessed the happy faculty of imparting his hopeful feelings to all with whom he mingled. In the most trying financial troubles through which our country has passed during the last twenty years,—and but few men felt them more sensibly than Mr. Scranton—he was always hopeful, and egerted himself to strengthen those whose hearts were failing them. His power to oonciiiate was very remarkable. His whole manner and the very tones of his voice were indicative of benevolence that disarmed opposition. He never repelled any man by a hasty or an unkind word, no matter how great the provocation. His prineiple was " to overoome evil with good," and his life was an illustration of this principle. His most intimate friends never saw him exhibit anger or a revengeful spirit. While always Signified in his manner, he was one of the most humble and unassuming of men.

No, for they are in themselves vacancies, not men. To these atoms society owes nothing. The history of the world's progress ignores their names and their exiitence; and being dead, the grave contains no more inert, worthless earth than it did before. They become chronio nuisances : they have no local habitation or name in so far as regards their worth or value, and from day to day, in the haunts of busy men, they pass as uncurrent funds—at so much of a discount that thfly cannot even buy themselves.-— Such are loafers—miserable, worthless beings, who die when they get too lasy and indolent to use their respiratory organs.

What is it? Can it be pointed out or defined ? It is the thoory of some, we know, that these phenomena can be accounted for on the principle that only the most active snd enterprising go from home; that it is not so much the West that expands their manhood as it is their expanding manhood that carries them there. But this is a mere begging of the question: for it is a part of the phenomena themselves, that there is no perceptible difference in this respeot between those who go and those who stay at home till after they have gone.—[Congregational Quarterly.

[Written Ibrthe PitUton Gaaette.] OLD SONGS. him an important member of the last Congress. He stood between conflicting parties, and to an extent that few men could have done, acted the part of a peacemaker. There was not a man from the north or the south, of either party, that ha could not approach with confidence. While his position as a conservative northern man was fully understood, he commanded the respect of all parties, and his position gave him more to do than he had really strength to perform. A gentleman from New York, who spent five or six weeks in Washington during the session of Congress, and who had abundant opportunities for observing the position and the efforts of Mr. Scranton in Congress, made this remark to me, 44 Mr. Scranton died a martyr to his country." The truth is, he broke down in his unwearied and exhausting efforts to carry forward those gTeat railroad enterprises that connect us with the valley of the Mississippi, the Northern Lakes and the Atlantic coast, and that are now unfolding the wealth of our valley. He went to Congress contrary to his own inclinations, with a broken constitution ; and his efforts there to serve and to save his country no donbt hastened his death. But his work was done. How Men Expand in the West. One is often amused, in traveling in the western States, to meet with a distinguished lawyer or politician, perhaps a Judge or Congressman, produced (and no sham pro! duction either) from what was known in ' some district school at the East as merely a tonguey lad, or at best, a college boy, endowed with some little native brass, it may be, but foreshadowing no more distinction in the world than forty-nine others in his class of fifty. A physician, who now stands confessedly at the head of the faoulty in one of the largest oities of the West, went there some twenty years ago, without friends, without even a college diploma to recommend him — merely a tall, green Yankee, who had thoroughly read medicine, and oould read a man. He, and his friends, and his native New England, owe his expansion and elevation to the formative powor of the West. In the same city, where it was our lot to preach half a day for a brother minister and college mate, (a distinguished D. D., by the way, whose distinction had all been acquired after he went out there,) in answer to questions artlessly asked respecting the general habits of the congregation as hearers of the word, we are told the story of a lawyer in his flock, who was so very exacting, and had such a lofty standard of pulpit exoellcnce, that he had beeome a terror, not to "evil doers" merely, but to all who could not do extremely well. And so quick was his perception of any defect, that in nine cases out of ten he ebuld tell, or thought he could, by the way in which the preacher read his first hymn, or a chapter in the Bible, at the opening of the service, whether he was fit to preach; and if not, he, the lawyer, did not feel bound to keep awake, and had often been known to show other less equivocal signs of disgust. It was impossible, after hearing all this, not to feel annoyed at the thought of preaching in such a presence. We bethought us of David, with his five smooth stones and sling, going to meet a giant whose spear was like a "weaver's beam/' but oould hardly be solaced with the hope that, like him, we possessed a missile that would penetrate either his head or heart. We remembered to have once preached to Daniel Webster, and found hiui an attentive hearer; but then, while we could not question his intellectual equality with this "second Daniel come to judgment," it was remembered thst he of Marshfield was proverbially indulgent in his criticisms on ministers, which thing it was dear fiom the pastor's showing, was not the habit of this formidoble personage. Several, times during the sermon, and in several different pews, imagination saw the man; for neither his name, nativity, nor place in Churoh was told us. On leaving the pulpit we were accosted by a young man, remembered as a student in Monson Academy Borne ten years previous, when we had the honor of serving on the board of trustees. To our utter surprise, it afterwards appeared that this was none other than that same " Ooliah of Oath," grown to this stature from that academy-boy since he came into the West. In another locality—a rising young city—we found in almost everybody's mouth the name of a certain individual of remarkable shrewd business tact, of large enterprise, and the owner of an immense landed estate, with any number of tenants and employees at his ooutrol.— He had built an eighty-thousand-dollar hotel in the young city of his adoption, at which he boarded. We, too, had taken lodgings at the same house. Judge of our astonishment, when the dinner hour came, to find this western nabob at our elbow, the identical person whom we had known in one of the obscureest towns of Eastern Massachusetts, himself an obscure youngster, with no more promise than soores of others in that place, who, in continued obscurity, "Along the oool sequestered vale of life, Jtratagema in Deer Hunting, notber very successful method of deer , which is practiced a good deal in *ely populated distrcta of Texas C?xico, where the game 5a abundant, accustomed to gracing in the Vicinity and hopes, is by making use of a ind tractable horse or male, and id aa near the deer aa can conve be done, without' giving alarm three hundred yards,) the hunteC BUSINESS CARDS.

With the stick he ia enabled to guide his horse, stop him, or turn him in any direction he may desire. In this manner he proceeds in a slow walk, carefully covering himself behind the horse, and gradually bearing towards the deer.

Mlyl boots mt*. SHOES. NEW During the approach the deer will sometimes take alarm, raise their heads, and east a startled and inquiring look at the horse. Should this occur, the hunter will at onee stop, and allow his horse to orop the grass while he himself lowers his beta so as to be entirely screened from the deer. As soon as they retain their composure and resume ther grazing, he proceeds again, and will generally bo in time to get within short rifle range, when he will stoop down and fire under his horse's belly or neck.— If, however, the stalk-horse has not been trained to this particular method of hunting, or is alarmed at the report of firearms, the hunter should carry the lariat rope in his hand, and when he is sufficiently near the deer, drop the guiding stiok, and allow his horse to pass on, while he remains upon the ground behind, and plaoes himself in a position to fire the instant he is uncorered by the horse. I have often hunted in this way, and with good success. I observed that, after a herd had been stalked several times, they became wary, after which it was necessary to unsaddle before commencing the approach. Gentlemen's Furnishing Store, WINCHESTER 4s CO. AHD I wish to speak of him as a Christian, for as such I knew him, haying been his pastor for a number of years. He was not forward in expressing publicly his religious views and feelings, but he was a man of deep, earnest and consistent piety. Much in his life and manner that was attributed by men who did not know him to worldly policy was the result of a Christian spirit. His love of Christ was appareut in the prayer meeting, at his own family altar, in his correspondence, and in every benevolent enterprise with which he was in anv way connected. He recognized continually an overruling Providence and looked to Tiod for a blessing on all he undertook.— Early in the history of Scran ton, when business prospects were very dark, he remarked to a minister staying with him, "I have faith to believe that we will sucoeed in our business enterprise, because we have entered upon it with a desire to do good and in reliance upon God." As Washington went forth to battle relying ob the God of battles for sueccss, so we are persuaded Mr. Scran ton entered on all his enterprises. Self-aggTandizement was not with him the great end of life, but the glory of God and the good of his fellowmen. What Burke is reported to have said of Roekingham, may with truth be said of Mr. Sorantoo, " lie was a man to be held in remembrance, for he did not live for himself." Sewing. MBS.

STLRMLB, Another successful but not very sportsman like method of deer-stalking, is resorted to by the unscrupulous pot-hunters in western Texas and Mexico, and which is so entirely different from any other I have heard of, that is worthy of a notive for its originality. It consists in making use of a dry and stiff oxhide, to one end of which a rope is attached. A yoke of well trained and gentle oxen are then hitched to the rope, and the hunter drives oat into the prairies where the deer resort. When he discovers a herd, and has approached as near as can be without disturbing them, he seats himself upon the hide, and without speaking or making any noise, directs his team with his whip towards the game. During the approach ne allows his cattle to move slowly, and occasionally to stop and crop the grass.

He had been anticipating death for four or five years, and since the revival of religion in the valley three years ago, which he was accustomed to speak of as the most delightful season of his life, he has kept his house in order. He felt deeply and gratefully the confidence reposed in him by the people of this community, and in a letter which he wrote reoently, he says, " My daily prayer to God is, that I may be kept humble and that I may be enabled to live near to Qod." The last time I exchanged pulpits with the pastor in Soranton, Mr. Scranton was present morning and evening, although in delicate health, and with a warmth and cordiality peculiar to his nature he expressed the pleasure be felt in the services of the sanctuary. He was one of that little band of Congressmen who during all tho political excitement of the past winter, found time to meet for prayer. Since he became a resident of this valley his infiuenoe has been felt in every department of our christian effort. Tho erection of a house of worship was among his first efforts after coming here.— While warmly attached to his own church be felt interested in the success of all, and to the extent of hife ability aided all. There are but few churches or seminaries of learning in this part of the country, belonging to any denomination, that he has not helped. The noble religious institutions of Soranton speak as no words can of his love for the cause of Christ. They all bear the impress of his noble, generous, christian spirit. His life illustrates a great truth not sufficiently understood, via : that devotion to busines» and devotion to Ood are not incompatible. We have few such business men as Mr. Scranton, and too few such christian men. (First Door East of Greenwich Street), NEW YORK Elmer H. Garbutt, Julius D. Koberts, HON. GEORGE W. SCRANTON.

Scranton departed this life. His death, which is a national calamity, falls most heavily upon this community. His relation to us as our Representative in Congress, his relation to the business interests of this part of the country, and his connexion for a number of years with this congregation, while Scranton and Pittston were united under one pastor, have suggested to me the propriety of a brief notice of him from this pulpit. It is now almost seventeen years sinco I first became acquainted with Mr. Scranton. He was then in connexion with others, and under trying circumstances, laying the foundations of Scranton, now the most populous and prosperous town in northern Pennsylvania. While he did not possess \ealth, he had business habits, energy and principles that were worth more to him in carrying out his plans than wealth. His advantages in the way of soholastic training had been limited, and yet his education fitted him eminently for the work to which he was oalled. Like nearly all great and useful men, he was "self-cducatea." Prominent among those elements of character which secured for him suoccss in life were industry and indomitable perseverance. He nevor calculated to fail in anything he undertook, ond yet he would not descend to unworthy means to effect his ends. His candor, sincerity and truthfulness secured for him the confidence of all who knew him. His disposition was to look on the bright side of things, and he possessed the happy faculty of imparting his hopeful feelings to all with whom he mingled. In the most trying financial troubles through which our country has passed during the last twenty years,—and but few men felt them more sensibly than Mr. Scranton—he was always hopeful, and egerted himself to strengthen those whose hearts were failing them. His power to oonciiiate was very remarkable. His whole manner and the very tones of his voice were indicative of benevolence that disarmed opposition. He never repelled any man by a hasty or an unkind word, no matter how great the provocation. His prineiple was " to overoome evil with good," and his life was an illustration of this principle. His most intimate friends never saw him exhibit anger or a revengeful spirit. While always Signified in his manner, he was one of the most humble and unassuming of men.

The Loafer.—Here is an accurate description of a class of men who infest every community : The most miserable loafers, whose sole occupation is to avoid employment of any kind—whose lives can scarcely be called lives—who die one after another and leave behind them—whatT A vacancy to be mourned ? No, for they are in themselves vacancies, not men. To these atoms society owes nothing. The history of the world's progress ignores their names and their exiitence; and being dead, the grave contains no more inert, worthless earth than it did before. They become chronio nuisances : they have no local habitation or name in so far as regards their worth or value, and from day to day, in the haunts of busy men, they pass as uncurrent funds—at so much of a discount that thfly cannot even buy themselves.-— Such are loafers—miserable, worthless beings, who die when they get too lasy and indolent to use their respiratory organs.

These are given as specimens. Each is the representative of a class. Other classes might be represented as well; but there is no need of it. The great fact underlying them all is sufficiently apparent, namely: that, from some oaose or other, there is a quickening, energizing, expanding, effect produced in the West on the general manhood of those who eome there from the East. What is it? Can it be pointed out or defined ? It is the thoory of some, we know, that these phenomena can be accounted for on the principle that only the most active snd enterprising go from home; that it is not so much the West that expands their manhood as it is their expanding manhood that carries them there. But this is a mere begging of the question: for it is a part of the phenomena themselves, that there is no perceptible difference in this respeot between those who go and those who stay at home till after they have gone.—[Congregational Quarterly.

Build walls of granite, and tbey decay; and what ia decay ? The breath of death which will instantly begin to act upon them. Build your Houses of Parliament of stone seleoted by the best judge*, and death with his fangs is already gnawing into dust the fabric that cost millions of the nation's wealth.
