PREDICTIONS.

The year 1886 will be very evcntful one-t,
every old maid who gets married,
| Throughout the whole course ofthe year wheney
er the moon wanes the nights will grow dark.
Those who have debts to pay, and no cash, will
loose their credit
| 1t is probable that if there is no business doing
people will complain of hard times, but it is certain
that those who hang themselves will escape starving
to death.
If bishop sleeves go out of fashion, there will be
more elbow room among the ladies. Iftoques fol-
low, we may perhaps see over their heads. If eth
er ofthem should be talked of, there will be much
ado about nothing.
Many man will grow rich this year, in dream
Ifthe incumbent of a fat office should die, there
will be dozen feet ready to step into one pair OF
shoes.
If an old mser dies, it will occasion the shedding
of many tears-thnt live in an onion.'
He who marries during this year will ran great
risk--that is, if he does it in hurry
He who steals match, will make tatlcrs gossip
and get himselfinto scrape.
He who is pennyless this year will not grcve
much at the fall Of stocks.
He who grows without growing wiser, will be q
long time coming to the years of discretion.
He who wants to borrow money will know the
value of it.
He who laughs at his own dull Jokes, and hunts
for a cat with three tails, or becomes candidate
for office, will rival honest Dogberry, and be content
to write himself an ass"
There will be more books published this year
than will find purchasers-more rhymes written
than will find readers and more bills made out than
will find payers.
Ifa man builds house this year without coun-
ting the cost, he will know more at the end of his
undertaking than at the'begnnng.
If any one jumps overheard without knowing
how to swim, it is two to one he gets drowned.
If any lends umbrella, it is ten to one that
he is obliged to GO home in the rain for his pains
There will be great noise about the conntry-
whenever 1t thunders, and great dust will be kick
ed up-by coach horses-uness the roads are
McAdamizcd
Whoever makes the discovery that the world is
given to lying, will do what Jack Falsta has done
before him.
Many an old sinner will resolve to turn over
new leaf this year, but the leaf will turn out
blank.
Many fond fool will jump into honey pot,
and find it mustard, without being able to say, with
the fly, Pm off,"
Many things will be wondered at this year. and
turn out not TO be miracles.
Many great man will tell fine story, to which
Mr.. Burchcll would have said, "Fudge %
Finally we are of opinion that this will be won
derfu year-just like all that have gone before it,
Politicians will make fools of themselves, pettifog-
gers will make fools of others, and women with
pretty faces will make fools of both themselves and
others. The world will go round and round back
20 the place from which it set out and this will be
the course of many a man who should be up and
doing. There will be great cry and little wool,
rs at n shearing of pigs or q session of Congress.

RECOLLECTIONS.


We sst togethe--sll alone
At evening. in the silent bower;
And far the silver starlight shone
Ger sleeping sea and folded flower.
know not truly how it came
That we we're sitting thus together;
But Love, know, is hard to tame,
And often breaks from Wisdom's tether.
We talked at first Of careless things,
The weather and the last new novel;
And both were sure the pomp of kings
Was naught to friendship in howell
With now and then trembling pause,
Our subjects were not very many;
And Sol know not how il was
At last we did not talk Of any.
But though we spoke not, all the while
Our eyes were sweeter converse keeping;
And Love, with many winning smile,
Betwixt the halfshut lids was peeping:
And though the bower was dimly dark,
saw the heaving of that BOSOM
o, it was passing sweet to mark
The opening of Loves early blossom.
In TRUTH we never meant the thing,
When first we sought that shady bower
Twas sudden as a breeze of Spring
Twas natural as budding flower.
Alas that faithless eyes should own
The thoughts our inmost bosoms harbor;-
Tis dangerous love, to sit alone
At twilight, in a silent arbor
That trembling hand was clasped with this
That cheek was resting on my shoulder;
And then the long, long, thrilling kiss,
When Love grew wild and grew bolder!
Long years have seen us far apart
Yet still upon my memory fingers
The beating of that gentle heart
The clasping Of those pretty fingers. Eiah.

families being well regulated and if mother would
faithfully perform her duty to her offspring, she
must be willing to make many sacrifices. The CON-
fort and improvement of her family must be her
principal object. Social visiting and yrtuous inter-
course with those whom we love, are some of the
greatest comforts of life, yet these be un-
der such restrictions that nothing may suffer by her
absence.
While her children are young, and their minds
susceptible of suitable impressions, she should SOW
the seeds of virtue, benevoence and all those amia-
BILE qualities that will in ripper years render them
honorable and dignied in their pursuits respectful
and useful members of the community, and yirtuous
and exemplary heads of families.
Fifteen minutes before the time IF there is any
one principle, to which the formation of my charac-
ter has been chiefly indebted, it is to this motto of
distinguished naval ommandeT.-Nobody ever wait
ed for Lord Nelson. He made it an invariable rule
to be present ut every appointment and to be ready
for every enterprise, at least fifteen minutes before
the time, and to wait impatienty the arrival of the
moment allotted for action. When the hour had
fully come, and the delay of others rendered it ex-
pedient to proceed, he looked upon his own oblga-
ton as cancelled, withdrew Immediately from the
place of rendezvous, and no inducement could ever
prevail upon him to return.
The lesson inculcated in tins motto is, to be in
time for every duty. 1t should be the standard
principle of every man who has any regard for him.
self, any regard for those whom he acts to be
truly punctual to all his engagements. To himself
it is rule of incalcuable importance and applies
to every occupation and every pursuit. The an
clients represented time under the simiIitude of an
old man, with a single lock upon his forehead,
gravely but steadily approaching assembled null
ttude-and whoever seized this lock and held him
by it, was borne onward with the most assured
pledge that could be given, of future success But
IT any suffered him to pass them, he spread the
wings, which till then were concealed behind him,
and flew away with rapidity which rendered
pursuit utterly vain.-Hence the homely adage,
" Take time by the foreock.'' Better be fifteen
minutes too early than fifteen minutes too late Too
late! Alas, what crowd of sensations cluster a
round that i'll omened phrase The disappoint-
ments how numerous The disaster how sad
The consequences-O who can trace through all
future time, and unbosem themselves in the abyss
of eternity

Beauty, as the fowery bloom, soon fades; but
the diyner cxcellencies Of the mind, like the n,ed-
cal virtues ofthe plant, remain in it when that charm
has fled. Neglect of merit should neither abash its
spirit, or suspend its efforts, for it canno, diminish
Its value.
