10 be soIltary-to be alone-to hear
no sigh-to see no tear in our last hour
Why does this thought appear so terrible,
so appalling to most people? The lonely
are afraid OF themselves:
$40 be alone! Had we never inward
ly loved-never given our hearts to an
other-then, methinks, with the thoughts
directed TO the wonders and mysteries of
creation, it would not be hard to pass
lonely and alone through the world; ad-
orlng only the Eternal and Alone One,
who dwells above the stars; who is the
origin of all existence; then methinks, il
would not be hard to pass lonely and a.
lone through the world. But from the
moment in which one person loves ano-

almost all the great and laborious men
in the world have been early risers. An
hour lost in bed in the morning, is worse
than 10 lose much more time in the even
ing. Industrious men do not feel the
need Of as much sleep as oilers. The
reason is, they acquire the habit of taking
less sleep, ard then they are as well Oh
and better, than others who sleep more.
One hour lost in sleep in the morning,
every day, will amount to 1865 hours in
a year; and in forty years twill amour!
to l4,6O0 hours, which allowing twelve
working hours for day, is 1915 work.
ing days, or nearly three years and half.
All this is actually gained, in forty years,
by rising one hour earlier in the morning
The man Wo sleeps away this hour, feels
dull when he does rise, and has no sys-
TEN, and not having much industry, may
well think it dangerous to have many
irons in the fire. He lets his one iron
burn till little is left but the handle. The
world Is but little better for such a man
while he is in it; and he will be thought
but little of when he is out OF it. Indus
try and system are the two great means
10 accomplish prodigies. Put all the irons
in the fire, and then sec that none of them
burn.

TEMPER.

a bad temper, in woman, poisons all
her happiness, blights her youth, brings
on premature lrelful old age-palls all her
enjoyments, banishes her friends, and rem
ders home comlortless ard barren. Far
different is the ripe, rich harvest home,
made bright and happy by the sweet tenn
per and mild department Of all amiable
wife, who if Affections cross her husband
abroad, finds comfort and consolation in
his home, is happy in companion whose
temper is like the silver surface Of lake,
calm, serene and unrufIlcd. If he is rich,
his admiring friends rejoice in his pros
perily, and delight IN his hospitality, be-
cause all around him is light, airy and
sunshine; if he is poor, he breaks his
crust in peace and thankfulness, for 1t is
not stepped in the water of bitterness
An amiable temper is jewel of incstlma-
BILE value in the sum of earthly happiness,
because with that alone, the whims Of a
cross husband may be subdued-many
vices may be overcome-the boisterous
may be tamed-the unruly conquered
the (ret(ul tranquilized--and the hurricane
soltened and hushed, as the mild zephyr
that sweeps over the huneysuckle under
the easement.

A GOOD LESSON.

A boy was once tempted by some of
his companions TO pluck some ripe cher>
rles from tree which his father had for
hidden him to touch.
'You need not be afraid,'' said they ;
''lor if your father should find out tina! you
had taken them, he is SO kind that he will
not hurt you"
"That is the very reason" replied the
boy, "why J would not touch them. i
is true, my father would not hurt me; vel
my disobedience, know would hurt my
father; and that would be worse TO me
than any thing else?o

Hints TO Ladies.

Stair carpets should always have slip
OF paper put under them, at and over the
edge of every stair, which is the part
where they first wear cut, in order to les
sen the friction Of the carpets against the
boards beneath. The strips should be
within an inch or too as long as the car
pet is wide, and about four or five inches
in breadth, so as to lie a distance from
each stair. This simple plan, so easy of
execution, will, we know, preserve Stair
carpet half as long as it would las. willis
out the strips of paper.

AMBITION.

The road on which ambition travels
has this advantage; the higher it ascends
the more difficult it becomes, till at last
1t terminates on some elevation too mar
row for friendship, too steep for safety,
too sharp for repose; and where the occu-
pant, above the sympathy of men, and
below the friendship of angels, resembles
IN the solitude, if not the depth, of his
suffering, Promelhcus chained to the
Caucasian rock.
