A TEXT FOR YOUNG MEN.-A bet
ter subject for yonng men to discourse
about and TO mediate upon was never
written than the following by Swift.
No man ever made an i'll figure who
understood his own talents, nor q good
one who mistook them"
Young men do not fail in the pur-
suits of life because they lack ability
and courage TO succeed, half as ofton as
from q instruction Of talents. A right
use Of moderate capacity will accom-.
plish much more than wrong appIica-
ton Of the most brilliant qualification.
Study therefore yourself Aim to find
out the actual talents you possess, and
then endeavor TO make the best possible
use of them, and you can hardly come
short of making good figure in the
world; and what. is more, being one
among those who live not in vain.

REPORT.

nEIOn /.
The committee deem it unnecessary
to enter into detailed discussion of
the important question involved in the
consideration Of said resolutions. The
power of Congress over the institution
of slavery is a limited power, and its ex-
ercise, otherwise than as express y per-
mitted by the federal constitution may
well be doubted.
The trainers of that instrument, with
foresight peculiar to the sagacious
statesmen Of the period of its adoption,
seem to have anticipated the dangers TO
which the American republic is now
subject, dangers the more imminent be-
cause growing out of the conflicting
opinions of two geographical parties
and with a vigilance that cannot be
too highly appreciated, and well worthy
the emulation of their descendants,
guarded the peculiar rights Of the south
against legislative encroachmenls by
Congress. To this end, the committee
find the following provisions of the con,
slilution of the United States, for the
greater security of the rights of the
south, "lhree-fifihs of all slaves are in,
cluded in representative numbers" thus
perpetuating in fundamental laws of the
land the institution of slavery by max.
ing it, to some extent, the basis of req.
resentalion.
The instrument also provides tina,
Congress shall not prohibit the impor.
tation of slaves prior 10 the year 1908
permitting however, a tax or duty to
be imposed upon such importation, no,
to exceed ten dollars upon each slave
The constitution further provides, least
the common law of England, which, in
the language of the eulogists of that

RHE U MATISM CAN BE CURED
BY THE PROPER USE OF
MYERS INTERROGATION!

THIS g vereign and effectual remedy for
hat painful disease, was discovered upwards
# sixty years ago by the Grandfather Of the
Undersigned, 90 German Physician of his day.
md has neverbeen made known out of his
amily.
It's incredible cures have ustonished thou
sands who have witnessed its power over tina,
disease. Unfortunate, despairing invalids, who
have been bed-ridden for years, have been re-
stored to the enjoyment of perfect health. 1t
bnnshes oil pain in few days, and its efficacy
is gladly realized by the patients being able to
resume their usual avocations, after having
suffered in torments for months and years
The wonderful success of the EMBROCA-
TON, in curing the worst cases of Rheu-
matism, has acquired for it n celebrity I'M
precedented, and its fame originated from
its own merits. 1t never has failed to cure
Rheumatism either inhammatory or chronic;
md | feel safe in saying it never will if fairly
tried. pledge myself to refund the cash to
any person who uses it properly without being
benefited thereby, Youwho are afflicted may
have tried every other remedy but this. Try
IT, and if it does not cure, it will not cost
you any thing. By this rule desire it should
be used.
Persons are warned to be on their guard Of
whom they purchase, as several mean at.
tempts have been made to procure the RECIPE
from which this medicine is prepared. The
proprietor deems 1t his duty to say TO tie af
ficted, that he will furnish travelling agents
with written authority for depositing it.

world sufficiently sorrowful, and TO
certain extent properly termed a"Vale
Of Tears" Yet do not fully sympa-
,hise in those sickly repnings at its mis-
cries and vanities, which are too CON-
monty drawn out from the pulpit, for
the world is the work of God, and il is
correspondingly beautful-beautiful
surprising description. Its mountains
and its valleys, hills and plains, rivulets,
lakes, oceans; its infinitely diversified
forms and colors; for il embraces all
the hues Of the rainbow, variously blen'
ded and combined; all are beautiful.
Then the sun pours down upon ii flood
of glory by day, and the moon man,les
it with silver radiance by night; and
oh, is not the canopy beautiful when il
is sciniillating with its million of starsl
And there is much of moral beauty in
this much abused world of ours, maugre
all that the bigo, and cynical philoso-
pher may say 10 the contrary. See
for instance, strong as death, bending
over the cradle of infancy, and the
couch Of Affections; see hearts united By
mutual affection reciprocally sustaining
each other through long years of tria
and suffering; see. in short, amidst lht
darker aspects of human life, on which
gloomy theologians are wont to dwell
here are transporting a thousand scenes
to engage the approving notice of all

SONG OF THE TOBACCO WORM.

With earlocks sospy and long,
With whskers frizzled and red,
A loafer sat with a quid in his mouth,
A splitting and muttering said
Wordsworth work,
These hands shall never pursue,
While | cen obtain long nine to smoke
Or plug Of tobacco to chew.
And he spts--s pts--spits.
When morn is breaking bright
Spts--spits-spts,
When Sol has climed his height
Spits-spiIs-spits,
With days expiring CLEAN.
And supperless falling asleep on bench
Keeps splitting away in his dream.
For in his dream he dreams,
1t is by fate decreed,
That he is great tobacco worm,
To mastcate the weed
And so he works away.
To make his conquest sure!
A free enlightened citizen,
A snuffer, smoker and chewer.
At market, church or mill,
In business or prayer
Stage cars and barber shups.
Bar rooms, and everywhere
He spits-spits-spi,s.
Evening. noon and morn,
And snuffs and puffs and blows his nose
As the fisherman blows his horn.
Swselhearts and wives, look here
Is this the man for you.
Whose nose is only fit 10 snuff,
His mouth to smoke and chew?
Spit-spit-spt
o, It's a nasty trick,
Enough TO turn any lady fair,
Unless she be able to stomach bear,
Or loafer snveloped in whiskeu and hair
Abominable and sick.
Ye danes who mean to wed,
Come listen to my lay:
Your charms from all tobacco worms,
Forever turn away,
But If you wear the yoke,
With resignation wear Il,
Nor skulk nor scold nor get the blues,
But ifhe smokes, and snuffs and chews,
Till pigtal guilds are over shoes.
Dear maiden, grin and bear it.
