at the entire absence Of etiquette with which
they were received. His arrivals at the
seat Of government, and departure there
| from. were so timed and conducted as to be
unobserved and unattended. Ills infcxibllity
on this point could never be overcome, and
finally permitted TO pursue his own course in
this respect, undlsturbed by any manifesto
ton of popular feeling. His uniform mode
of riding was on horse back, which was daily,
and always unattended. In one Of these
solitary excursions, while passing a stream of
water, he was accosted by single beggar,
who implored his assistance to transport him
and his baggage. lie Immediately mounted
the beggar behind him, and carried him over
ON perceiving he had neglected his wallet,
he as good humoredly recrossed the stream
and brought it over 10 him.
This act Of kindness, which was indeed nc
more than christian charity enjoins, although
much more than most of us practice, was ex-
actly contorrnabe to the unostentatious bene-

BEAUTY OF WoMEN.-Is there not beau
ty and charm in that valuable and venerated
woman who sits in the majesty Of age be-
side the fireside of her son;-she who nursed
him in his infancy, tended him in youth,
counselled him in manhood, and who now
dwells as the tutelary goodness of his house,
hold? What host of blessed memories are
linked with that mother, even in her 'rever-
ence and chair days, what multitude Of
sanctiiying associations surround her, and
make her lovely even on the verge Of the
grave. Is there not beauty and charm in
that matronly woman who is looking fondly
on her child in her lap? Is there not holy
influence around her, and does not the OBJ
server at once pronounce her lovely? What!
though the lines and lineament of youth are
fled, time has given far more than he has
taken away. And is there not beauty and
charm in that fair girl who is kneeling
before that matron-her own womany SYM
pathies just opening into active life, as she
holds the playful infant to her bosom? All
are beautiful-the opening blossom, the ma
ture flower, and the ripened fruit; and the
callous heart and the sensual mind, that
gropes for loveliness as stimulant for pas
sion, only shows that it has no correct senses
of beauty.

WHAT | LIKE TO SEE.

like to see woman out in the morning
scraping up chips to build fire, and her
husband in bed; it shows that she thinks
more Of him than she does Of herself
like TO see merchants and mechanics
keep their shop doors and windows closed
until the sun is an hour high; it shows they
are independent, and ask no favors of their
customers.
like to see young women walking the
streets on Sundays in their silks, with holes
in their stockings; it shows they are more
attentive to things above than below.
like to see men crowding round the bar
room Monday morning before sunrise; j,
shows their anxiety to get at their weeks
employment in good season.
like to see women send their butter to
market in dirty cloth; it shows economy, ns
it saves washing.
like to see men pay their debts on the
back Of an execution; it saves trouble hcreaf-
ter.
like to see men when they make mistakes
have them always in their favor; it shows they
wish to take care of number one.
Above all like to see young women stop
whole congregation from going out of a
meeting house, while they stand chattering
in the aisle, it shows they mind their own
business.

WEBB, THE NOTED WALKER.-This man
was remarkable for vigor, both of mind and
body, and lived wholly upon water for his
drink, and chiefly upon vegetables for his
sustenance. He was one day recommending
his regimen to one of his friends, who loved
wine, and urged him, with great earnestness,
to quit course Of luxury by which his health
and his intellect would equally be destroyed.
The gentleman appeared convinced, and told
him ''that he would conform to his counsel,
but that he could not change his course of
life at once, but would leave off strong liquors
by degrees" @By degrees" says the other

cholera, cramps, spasms, levers, and other alarm

be speedily cured or prevented. In fact, all those
who value good health should never be without
