A FACT FOR THE MILLION.

Every man in difficulty, poverty, or despon-
dency, should think. when at the verge of utter
despair, that there are others in the world,
worse off than himself, who are happy and
contented. A striking illustration of this fact
occurred for the edi6cation Of poor friend of
ours month since. ~ - r.e e.@
81 was" said he, ssout of business, entirely
had exhausted all methods the exercise of
which was likely to procure me employment.
was walking down Broadway with solitary
sixpense in my pocket, and hunger gnawing
at my vitals, in that desperate mood which
may be properly termed partial insanity, and
in the fullness of my woe was absolutely con-
templating suicide, when collection of peo-
pie, gathered about the door Of princey
mansion, diverted my attention. / beheld a
decrepid old man, bent double with age, and
SO feeble that two burly domestics were, with
their united strength, aiding his trembling and
uncertain steps. He was nearly blind, quite
deaf, was told, possessed to limited extent
only the faculties of taste and smell. He was
taking his customary morning walk-hobbling
from the door of his dwelling to the nearest
corner"
The man alluded to is the famous millionaire
[Astor] about whom books have been written,
and newspaper paragraphs innumerable con.
cocted. +N
II thought" said our friend, "that ], with
my single sixpense, was in glorious situation,
compared with that of the individual before
me, and | went my way with beaming
countenance and lightened heart thanking
Heaven for the health and strength then
enjoyed-but had despised. l have never des-
paired since" p.e
LEARN TO SAY No.-Multtudes Of Young
men are ruined by not having decision enough
to say NO. They meet with. companions who
invite them to step into a fruit shop, or into
the confectioner's, or into the oyster cellar, or
the bar-room. They are perfectly aware that
they would not like to have their parents see
them go into such places; they are aware that
those who entice them are, as vet, below
themselves in moral character, but they have
not 6rmness enough TO say NO. When they
allow themselves to be led away once, they
will again; and they must return the compli-
ment This is the beginning of that course
which leads to drinking, to tavern suppers, to
street smoking, to the theatre, to the house of
her which is the way TO hell, and then, to the
ruin Of the young man, for eternity.

KICKING A YAN KE E

u n ~ " "A n ~ ~ L Z
A very handsome friend Of ours, who few
weeks ago was poked out of comfortable
office up the river, has betaken himself TO
Bangor for time, TO recover from the wound
inflicted upon his feelings by our "unprincipled
and mmolating administration"
Change OF air must have had an instant
effect upon his spirits, for, from Galena, he
writes us an amusing letter, which, among
other things, tells Of desperate quarrel that
took place on board of the boat between real
live dandy tourist, and real live yankee set
tier. The last trod on the toes OF the former;
whereupon the former threatened to " Kick
out of the cabin " the latter. ll4I ae& p

MAKING THE TOES USEFUL Roberts in his
Oriental Illustrations, thus speaks of the active
graspng power which the Orientals have in
their feet and toes:
"By constant usage they accustom them
selves to make use of them in holding things
in manner which perform almost the work
Of fingers. We bind ours fast from early
childhood in our close shoes, and they become
useless except for walking. But the Orientals
use theirs differently. They seize upon an
object with their toes, and hold it fast. If in
walking they see any thing on the ground
they desire to pick up, instead Of STOPPING as
we would, they seize it with their toes and
lift it up Alypulle, Kandian chief, was
about to be beheaded. When arrived at the
place Of execution, he looked around for some
object on which 10 seize, and ,aw small
shrub, and seized it with his toes, and held it
fast, in order to be firm while the executioner
