SORROW.

There is no sorrow in the world except that
we bring upon ourselves. Everything is smiling
and beautiful around US. The forest is not de-
cayed-the rivers and brooks are not turbid,
and the sky is not clothed in sackcloth Nature
throughout the year is delightful; and why should
man be sad His heart has MOI been schooletl
right his passions have not been subdued he is
altogether too selfish, and is therefore miserable
We know many individuals who are cross and
grabbed as they can be, when they are not MAX
ing money fast. If they lose sixpence by way
of trade they feel like gnawing files; if debtor
has turned bankrupt, it takes full six months to
erase the scowl from their brows. We are ac-
quainted with one man worth at least hundred
thousand dollars, who suffers unaccountably in
his mind for fear he shall die poor. He knows
not what it is to enjoy moments peace of mind.
Another we have seen, who never pays his taxes
without curse, and is efernally railing against
the Assessors for doing their duty. Now all
such make the pangs they daily feel, and are
miserable in the midst OF pleasure. Let them
live like human beings with gratitude in their
hearts and kindness on their lips, and all their
fears would vanish. All should be happy. 1t
was Heavens design that we should be SO, when
He created us in his image, and made with inf
nate wisdom this glorious world, and stretched
above US the illimitable skies.

SFI.ECTJONS

The readable character Of paper, in general,
depends as much on the Judgment and taste of the
editor in making his selections, as upon any other
thing. The fitness for the post he occupies is to
be estimated as much by his talent in this depart
ment as any other. Il requires knowledge of
human nature to Judge what readers ought to read
and Wbat they ,sviu read, and what, out of the
vast material found in exchanges, should be Sc
lected for the Improvement of his paper and the
pleasure and profit Of his readers. Some editors,
have the presumption and vanity to imagine their
readers would rather be confined to the perusal of
original articles from their pens, tlhsn to be in
duIged with articles that eInanate from other pens
and have been inserted in other papers. 1t is
quite possible that their views would undergo a
material alteration, and their pride be somewhat
mortified, could they possess themselves Of the
judgment of their readers. The editor Of paper
must at times perform the office Of CLEANER, and
pick up little ''here and there" in the world of
exchanges to enrich his columns with intelligence
that will be appreciated, and to give it the rich
variety of thought and sentiment, without which
his paper would be pronounced dull and prosy.-
The proper use of the scissors is knowledge in
dispensable to the editor. What to select and
how much to use requires no little judgment and
experience.

POETRY.
VIOLA.
By MRS. wELBY.


She has passed like bird from the minstrel throng
She has gone to the land where the lovely belong
Her place is hushed by her lovers side,
Yet, his heart is full of his fair young bride;
The hopes Of his spirit are crushed and bowed,
As he thinks ofhis love in her long white shroud
For the fragrant signs Of her perfumed breath
Were kissed from his lips byhis rival-Death.
Cold is her bosom, her thin white arms
All mutely crossed DER its icy charms,
And she looks like statue of Grecian Art,
With marble brow and cold hushed heart.
Her locks are bright. but their gloss is hid.
Her eye is sunk meath its waxen lid
And thus she lies in her narrow hall
Our fair young minstrel-the loved of all.
Light as birds were her springing feet,
Her heart as joyous-her song as sweet
Yet never again shall that heart be stirred
With its glad wild songs like singing bird.
Never again shall the strains be sung,
That in sweetness dropped from her silver tongue
The music is over and deaths cold dart
Hath broke the spell of that free glad heart.
Often at eve when the breeze is still,
And the moon floats up the distant hill,
As | wander alone 'mid the SUMMER bowers,
And wreath my locks with the sweet flowers
will think Of the time when she fingered there,
With her mild blne eyes, and her long fair hair
will treasure her name in my bosom's core
But my heart is sad can sing no more

AMERICAN MECHANICS:

Newport paper in urging the establishment
OF an Apprentices Library, gives utterance to
the following truths -.
There is no earthly reason why the mechanics
OF this great and glorious republic should not be
sterling and learned men; the idea Of monied
aristotaacy being the only mobiles and lords of
the land |, has long since become obsolete among
all sensible practical and useful men. He who
employs his mind and his hands, for the benefit
of his ellow-men, is ali orllame nj to society," and
he lives to some purpose for he fntils the design
of the Creator
Labor y mans inheritance, the only bequest
OF om first parents; virtue they had some to
leave Us, and wealth they never acquired. Hon
est labor no man need be ashamed of, for the
most splendid intellects, those who have con-
ceived plans and discovered inventions which
have opened well springs OF wealth, and laid out
avenues of knowledge, have been those who
commenced life in all humble manner, and were
literally the architects OF their fortune and
fame. The scornful lip of the aristocrat, who
can boast OF his worldly possession, may be curl
ed in proud defiance at the industrious mechan-
ic, the sweat Of whose brow earns his daily
bread but in many instances the head of the
one is emptier than the shadow of vanity, while
that OF the other is the personifcation OF genius
the embodiment of all that is lofty and splendid
in thought The one rolls in his liveried chariot
but to save his soul from perdition, he cannot
tell who first discovered the principle of gravita
ton in philosophy the other labors hard with
his hands, but his head ia an encyclopedia of
knowledge
Many giant mind is slumbering in an un-
prepossessing head, which requires the force of
circumstances to develope its power it needs
encouragement to walk in the paths of knowl-
edge, from which its innate modesty would seem
to deter it, or slight barriers in the way and
it is prevented from accomplishing any thing
great or beneficial.
Therefore We say, while the means are before
you, and the advantages are literally offered un-
to you, do not fail to improve them, for they
will be OF vast importance at late period Of
life. Progress is your prerogative, and there is
nothing to prevent you from rising in society,
and occupying its most conspicuous positions.
Wealth cannot give you name Or character
for goodness and greatness; virtue is the only
sure foundation, and knowledge is the structure
which it is in your power to build upon it. Do
this and in few years you will become the
main pillars in the temple of freedom, and upon
your shoulders shall gracefully repose the funda-
mental principles of the freest, the noblest and
only model government of the earth.

JEFTERsON'S HOUSE, DEATH,
GRAVE, &C.

On the summit that commands this enchanting
view the mansion was built by Jefferson when he
had wealth to lavish on his cultivated tastes
The house was one hundred feet long, of peculiar
form and proportion. You enter wide and lofty
hall, that was once adorned with works of art,
which he had selected with masters skill, in
the high places of the earth-then you pass to the
spacious dlaing room, with polished inlaid floor
then to his library and study, and parlor. Ascend
this flight of stairs, not more than wide enough
for one to walk up at time, and you find the
chamber where he died on the 4th July, 1896
The bed was in recess the end of which contain
ed two cross pieces, and on this were thrown the
mattresses on which he laid himself to die. 1t
was the gloomest place-the dead room-that |
ever was in-there was the strangest gathering of
thoughts, crowded upon eaci, other, and each
claiming to be the true emotion of the hour aud
spot thought of liberty and revolution-of phi
losophy, and of religion and inGdelty and death
hereafer-of the soul Of mighty man struggling
with the letters, and rushing away with them into
the darkness Of an untried tutnre to the presence
of the Infinite in whom The wisdom Of man and
angels is but drop that falls into the ocean-be-
fore whom the soul of the unholy shrinks away,
and finds the rags of human glory and fig leaves
of philosophy to be no covering when the eye Of
the Holy One searches the spirit Such thoughts
as these pressed upon me as stood in the cham,
Der whence the soul of Jefferson lad fled to judg
ment.
The mansion, now owned by Captain Levy, is
falling into decay--t was sold and all his furniture,
Jefferson having died insolvent, and almost the
only relic left Of a man whose name is identified
with his country's history, as devoted patrio,
and distinguished President, is bust Of Voltaire,
which stands here turear divinity Of this desert
ed dilapidated house. - 80
As you ascend the mountain, you pass an en-
closure. without gate that contains the grave Of
Jefferson-and more neglected, wtetched burial
place, you will seek ii vain.
II Campbell's last man had been buried there he
| could not ha4e been less cared for.
The wife Of Jefferson, torn from him by death,
ten years after their early marriage, lies here.
A granite obelisk, battered much by pilgrims,
but without name or epi,aph, is doubtless the
monument of Jefferson. 1t was here placed by his
executors, and the panel on which was to be in
scribed the eptaph he wrote for himself, has new
er been inserted in the stone. was told it was
lying with the iron gates destined for the enclosure
On the banks of the river where landed, and that
