to be deeply impressed with the symbols

Turning from this sight TO the saddened
Hooks Of the lnultitudes arrayed in black,

discovered that the sympa,hies Of a Peo-

SELF RELIANcE.-If our, young men
miscarry in their first enterprises, they
lose ali heart. If the young merchant
fails, men say he is ruined. If the
finest genius studies at one of our col
lcges, and is not installed in an office in
one year afterward in the city or suburbs
Of Boston or New York, it seems to his
friends and to himself that he is right in
being disheartened, and in complaining
the rest Of his life. sturdy lad from
New Hampshire or Vermont who in
turn tries all the professions, who teams
it, farms 1t, peddles, keeps a school,
breaches, edits a newspaper. goes to
Congress, hugs township. and SO forth,
in successive years, and always. Ikea
cat, falls on his feet, is worth bundled
of. these city dolls. He walks abreast
with his days, and feels no shame in not
''studying profession for he does not
postpone his life, but lives already He
has no, one chance. but hundred cham
ces. Let a stole arise who shall reveal
the resources Of man, and tell men they
are nor leaning willows, bu. can and
must detach themselves; that with the
exercise of self-trust, new powers shall
appear, that man is the word made
flesh. born to she'd healing to the nations,
that he should be ashamed of Our com
passion. and that the moment he acts
from himself, tossing the laws, the
books, idolatries.s and customs out of the
window pity him no more but
thank and revere him--and that teacher
shall restore the life Of man to splen-
|, dor, and make his name dear to all
History. ~ aIzlt s@ a&
It is easy 10 see that greater self-reai-
ance-a new respect for the divinity in

General Harrison and his Wife.
The brief "Reminiscences we promised
last evening, was connected with a. visit
made by Mr. Russell to North Bend in
the heat of the Presidential campaign
last summer. The sweet singer, like ev.
cry other friend, found warn, welcome
at the hospitable mansion Of Gen. Har-,
rlson. Among the songs sung was plain-,
tive domestic one. happy, in. its thoughts
and touching i'll its language, entitled "Wy
Wd WIFE The language was Striking
'lv, adapted to the happy life and loves Of
Gen. Harrison and his "oid wife, both
of whom found in. the society of each
other the mos. perfect happiness which it
is possible to enjoy. The music was
overpowering at the time, recalling as it
did the events of wears of uninterrupted
domestic bliss. Mrs. Harrison weptllke
a child, and as tears are contagious, when
the fountains Of sympathy are not dried
up. the husband Of the 'old wife, could
not refrain from weeping also, The re-
mark Of Mrs. Harrison in excuse for
what she deemed woman's weakness,
was the dread Of change. which of neces-
sity must come in change Of residence
from North Bend to Washington, and in
a change Of condition from the humble
citizen experimenting his farm, TO the
President Of a nation. with the cares and
responsibilities of Government upon his
shoulders. II wish" said Mrs. H., that
nv husbands friends had left him where
he is. happy and contented in retirement"
Gen. Harrison's heart, in the hour Of So
cial quiet. surrounded by the remnant of
his family. responded to the sentiment,
and doubtless felt the vanity Of all things
earthly Alas, how fully have been the
dark foreboGings Of the wife realized!
She who a few weeks ago was the "gooG
old wife, is now the lone widow, and
before the eyes Of the reader are fixed
upon the paragraph we write, relating the
simple story of a pious and good woman,
hers are filed with tears at the loss of
one dearer to her than life. How often
will the recollection Of the wish we have
named return to her, and how many and
painful will he the regrets that husband
and wife. who had lived so long and so
happily together, were seperaled.in the
hour of death.
