E. THE SELFISH MAN.-t is the decree
Of heaven that the exclusively selfish man
shall be miserable even in this world
As he never gives love to any man, he
never can receive return Of love. Heis
at war with the general good Of his
species, and is therefore the common enc.
my If mankind. His money may COM
mand attentions, and procure the outward
show Of respect-but he can never re-
ceive the homage Of an unbought smile, or
the warm tribute Of grateful heart.
y Wealth is too poor to purchase love,
and power is not strong enough to encbain
affection. The eye may fall abashed in
the presence OF grandeur, the lips may
chaunt the praise of aflluence, the knee
may bend in homage before the splendor
Of authority, but the heart is above all
bride, and will give its affections to good
ness alone. The selfish man is, therefore,
shut out from ali that gives grace and val
,,e to life--all that makes life blessing ;
for what is extensive wealth TO him who
has no mans sympathy, no mans love

REBuKE TO the MISUNDERSTANDING

liquid fire, under the influence Of which
the shocking act was committed

numbed and obscured--your animal and
brutal passions had become infamed and

appetites and habits, for few pennies

Impfovins the Psulmody.

A correspondent OF the Newark Adver-
tisef, writing from somewhere away down
east, gives an anecdote of one Of the Choir
listers Of the meeting house, who attempt
ed to improve the Psalmody as well as the
music Of the meeting. He set some music
Of his own to Watts's psalm, in which oc-
cur these lines: mas.-
. go let my heart in tune be found,
Like David's harp of solemn sounds
Calling on his pastor, who has more mu-
sic in him than you would think, the CHOIR
lister asked his appreciation Of new YER
sion Of these lines which would render
them. more readily adapted to the music he
had proposed. He suggested 10 read them
as follows. ..5Sfata MA ~.
go let my heart be tuned within,
Like David.s sacred violin.'
The good pastor had some internal ten-
denotes to laugh in the singing mans face,
but maintaining his gravity as well as he
could, he said ihat he thought he could i'm
prove the improved version, admirable as
it was. The delighted chorister begged
him to do so, and the pastor taking his pen
wrote before the eyes Of his innocent par.
ishioner, these lines as = a-a@5

The poor leader, after vain attempt to
defend his parody, retired, and will prob
blyfor the future sing the psalm as it stands.

Take full pail Of cold water, and wash

cools the teats, or reduces the fever, and
the cow viii stand perfectly still. After
milking, use half as much cold water,

Keepin. Pioughs from Rus.in..


A correspondent Of the Prairie Farmer
gives the following recipe for keeping
ploughs from rusting: F'a
"Melt together one part Of beeswax and
two parts Of deer's tallow, and form into
a ball, and use as occasion requires" He
recommends it for keeping other tools from
rusting. As regards ploughs, one way to
keep them from rusting in our country is
TO keep them going. Our ploughs are diff
ferent, however, from those used in the
prairies Of the far west, where the soil is
so slick and greasy, that a thousand years
rubbing wouldn't brighten pepter- button,
but in gritty old New England one "bout,'' .
will polish the dullest pig-metal so bright
