SELF LOVE.

Love Of self is the predominating
passion Of mankind: all thoughts and
ltions are prompted by it; there can
De no action of man, however liberal
and disinterested it apparently may be,
but traced to its source, will be found
to enanate from self. The philan-
thnopist, whilst Drawing the opinions
and the prejudices Of the world has a
secret Indictment derived from the
pleasure he receives in being the pub
lie and acknowledged benefactor Of
his kind; so, all the actions which the
world deem good and great, in meas
ure originate, and are stimulated by a
love Of self. What stimulates the war
rior most-love Of country, or glory
and renown? The experience and the
wisdom of ages will answer which.
Claimed the warriors deeds no need
Of fame, heroes ne'er had fallen mart
yrs in the cause Of country or Of liber-
ty. Those who would deny the truth
Of this may tell Of Marathon and Their
mopoln, or turn to where recording
history speaks the deeds Of immortal
Tell. They only see at Marathon and
Thermopola the patriot martyrs, and
think not Of the cause that led those
heroes thus, seemingly, to immediate
themselves upon the altar Of liberty.
And who does not know that private
wrong first raised the arm Of Tell A.
gainst his country's tyrants. speak
IN no disparagement Of the immortal
dead. ! would only prove that all
mans actions are prompted by SELF
ish feeling. This is q truth which our
very love ofself wouldurg usto deny,
but il may not be. Cavil as we will,
the history Of the world has stamped
it true. Many will be astonish at the
temerity Of any one daring to avow
such sentiments, for the world would
forget the cause Of action IN its effect,
the ambition Of the statesman Is hidden
by the glory Of his success, and the
fame Of the conqueror, brings in its
shade the mangled corses ofthose who
fell to wreathe his brows with victory

said uncle Toby.
1t was in the month Of December,
1906, that | took my passage in the
stage that piled every Tuesday and
Friday between Old Chester and Phil

the hour Of departure, and myself and
four others took our seats in the fast
line coach, as she was then called, and
drove on at the fast rate Of two miles
an hour.
OF my fellow travellers, the two on
the front seat / judged to be Of the So
ciety Of Friends, the middle seat was
occupied by a son of the Emerald Isle,
and an old tar, who sat mnfIed up in

BATTLE OF THE MosoScAHELA

DAT LIZ Of lhk AuNOHSAnkAh.
The battle Of the Monongahela was
fought on the 9th July, 1916, between
the French end Indians on the one
side, and the British and Americans on
the other. The British army was
commanded by Genera. Braddock, a
brave but imprudent and obstinate
man. George Washington was the aid
Iof Gen. Braddock, and at that time
was twenty-three years of age. twas
beautiful summers day. The Brit
ish troops were all in uniform, and mo-
we'd TO the sound of martial music. with
the regularity of review. But in a
short time they were surprised by the
lsayages, and after severe battle, were
defeated and put to fight General
Braddock himself was killed; and out
|of eigbty-four officers in his army, six
ty-one were killed or wounded. Geo.
Washington, though engaged in the
thickest of the battle, escaped unhurt.
He had two horses killed under him,
and four bullets passed through his gar
ments. But he was preserved by Di-
vine Providence to be the saviour Of
his country. Fifteen years after the
battle, and when the war was over,
George Washington travelled into the
Indian country TO survey some unset
tied lands. While exploring the will
derness, band Of Indians approach
led, headed by venerable chief. The
aged Indian drew nigh and spoke in
the following manner: Il come, !" said
ne, ato behold my great father, Wash
Iington. ! saw my great father on
horseback, in the hottest Of the battle.
My great father was then very young
man, but he rode before all the war
chiefs. fired my rifle at him many
times, for was in the army Of the
French, and babe the young men fire
their rifles Al him; but the Great Spirit
turned away the bullets; and saw that
my great father could not be killed in
battle" This anecdote rests on the
authority Of DR.. CIaik, who was the
friend and physician Of Washington,
who was with him in the battle Of the
Monongahela, and was in his compa-
ny when the Indian Chief came to see
