Think for Yourself.

An illustration of the above, is the case
ofthe man who undertook to build house
and altered it at every body's suggestion,
until he found he was likely to be made
unhappy and a bankrupt by the operation,
when he was obliged to alter his course
and rely on his own judgment if he ever
wished to complete his building.
All mankind would find it more profta-
BILE, if they could always exercise their
ownJudgment and freely express their own
thoughts without relying on the minds OF
others; our race would be happier, and
would possess more high moral intellect
and mankind would act more upon prin-
ciple than they now do.
l. Not unfrequently do we see men sway
ed to and fro by every one who converses
with them. They agree with every one;
and in this way, not unfrequently do they
obtain the appellation ofsmart men. But
they are far from being capable men,
Men who have opinions of their own made
up from practical principles, are the men
for example. Such men are more respec-
ted and exert greater influence in soci-
ETY. at large, than thousand of those who
pin their opinions on other peoples faith,
and never express themselvs until they
have heard others talk. Away with such
men!-the world is full of them-hence
the moral pollution ofsociety Confidence
is gone, and man knows not when to trust
his fellow man. @
Many young man has made ship
wreck of his moral character, by not hav-
ing sufficient confidence in himself to
brook the common current of society,"
He dresses extravagantly, not that he can
afford it, nor that his business demands it.,
or that he makes any better member of
society, but he thinks he will not be re-
spected unless he thus dresses. No mat
ter if it is done at the tailor's expense
Society favors such views; although they
know that fine garment may cover vii
lain's heart, still it will conceal its sinful
passions. But many young men cannot
resist the passion for dress, for fear ofwhat
will be said of them. What moral cour-
age! Not only is it SO with dress, but the
same with almost everything else. Many
men seem not to know what they can at
ford until some good friend has told them
they can do so and So, Just as if they
knew the length of their neighbor's purse,
or the notes they had to pay, or the amount
of business which they do! There have
been more men ruined by such kind
friends, than in most any other way;
when, if they had exercised their own
Judgment, knowing their own crcumstan-
ces best, they would never have been led
into the many evils that beset them.

Domestic Happiness.

All! what so refreshing, so soothing, so
satisfying, as the placid joys Of homer
See the traveller--does study call him for
season to leave his beloved circle? The
image of his earthly happiness continues
vivid in his remembrance, it quickens him
to diligence, it makes him to hail the hour
which sees his purpose accomplished, and
his face turned towords home; it commen-
ces with him as he journeys, and he hears
the promise which caused him TO hope
"Thou shalt know also that thy taberna-
Gle shall be in peace and thou shalt visit
thy tabernacle, and not SIM" Oh the joys
ofa divided family--the pleasures of re-
newed interview and conversation after
days of absence! Behold the man of SCI
ence-he drops the laborious and painful
Observation-Disclosures his volume-smooths his
wrinkled brow--leaves his study, and un-
bending himself, stoops to the capacities,
yields to the wishes, and mingles with the
diversion of his children. Take the man
oftrade-whatre reconciles him to the ,oils of
business? what enables him TO endure the
fastidiousness and impertinence ofcustom.
ers? what rewards him for so many hours
oftedious confinement! By and bye the
season of intercourse will behold the de-
sire of his eyes and the children of his
love, for whom he resigns his ease; and in
their welfare and smiles he will find his
lecompense. Yonder comes the laborer-
he has borne the burden and heat of the
day-the descending sun has released him
Of his toil-hastening home to enjoy sweet
repose. Halfway down the land, by which
stands his cottage, his children run to meet
him. One he carries, one he leads. The
companion of his humble life is ready to
furnish him with plain repast See his
toil-worn countenance assume an air of
cheerfulness His hardships are forgotten;
fatigue vanished-he eats, he is satisfied.
In the evening, he walks with uncovered
head around his garden-enters again and
retires to his rest; and ''the rest the la
boring man is sweet, whether he eats much
or little" Inhabitant of his lonely DWELL
ing. who can be Indifferent to thy comfort!
Peace be to this house!-Rer. w. jay.

From the Cincinnati Gazette.
Railway Enterprises.

The Railway from Columbus to Xenia
will be ready for travel in January next,
and the whole line to Cleveland in anoth.
er year.
The road from Wellsville to Cleveland
will soon be finished.
These two roads unite at common de.
pot on Lake Erie, at the mouth of Cuya-
hoga. By filling the Lake they obtain 40
acres for the joint depot! The Columbus
line comes in just above the New England
Hotel, where there is passenger depot,
and from thence passes down under the
hill to the general depot. The Wellsville
road strikes the Lake further down and
passes up on the lake shore to the common
depot.
The road from Springfield to Dayton is
pushed on with energy, as is also that from
Dayton to Greenville.
The line from Hillsborough to its juno
ton with the Little Miami road, is now
partly under contract and the whole will
be soon.
The line from Sandusky by Mansfield
to Newark, is rapidly advancing to com.
pletion south of Mansfield.
The work on the line from this city to
Hamilton and Dayton, it is confidently
expected will soon be resumed, and event
ually pushed on until the whole line is
completed.
In Indiana the people are wide awake
on the subject of railways. Lines are un-
der contract from Lawrenceburgh to
Greensburgh. From the Madison road
at. Edinburgh north cast of Shelbyville,
and north west to Martinsville. From In
dianapols to Winchester, northeast to-
wards Bellefontaine, southwest to Terre
Haute, north to Peru, and northwest to
Lafayette. From Martinsvitle to Green
castle. From Albany northwardly to
unite with line from Lafayette south,
and the Terre Haute and indianapolis
line. srs 1ul
On all these lines, with one or two ex-
ceptions, the farmers--the people along
the line who of all others receive the most
benefit from such works-come forward
and open free way for the road, and
subscribe literally to the stock The ex-
ceptions, we regret to say, are found near
this city, in Hamilton and Butler counties.
The project of the railway from this to
Dayton, &c., has in many instances
doubled the value of the farms in the
neighborhood of the proposed line, yet
they subscribe very little stock or none at
all, and resist with all their energy, all the
movements of the Company to obtain the
right of way! We do not speak of antici-
pated increase in value merely for many
have already sold at an advance of one
hundred per cent. on the price they asked
before the road was begun, and have al
ready realized the benefit; yet they resist
every application for the right of way
This is particularly the case in Hamilton
county. In Butler the right of way was
yielded on liberal terms, We understand
now, that so soon as the right of way is
settled from the line of Butler county TO the
city, the work will be recommended and
the road completed in short time.

ASTEAM IDoL.--In the ''History of Won
derfll Inventions" recently published, we
find the following curious account of an
ancient Idol, which, acted upon by the a.
gency of steam, deceived and astonished
Its credulous votaries --,. -s-co e.s
sit is also recorded that, upon the banks
of the Weser, the ancient Teutonc gods
sometimes marked their displeasure by a
sort of thunder-bolt which was immedi-
ately succeeded by cloud that filed the
temple. An image of the god Busterick,
which was found in some excavations,
clearly explains the manner in which this
prodigy was accomplished by the priests.
The head of the metal god was hollow,
and contained pot of water; the mouth
and another hole, above the forehead, were
stopped by wooden plugs, a small stove
adroitly placed in cavity ofthe head un-
der the pot, contained charcoal, which be.
ing lighted, gradually heated the liquor
contained in the head. The vapor pro
duced from the water having acquired suf-
ficient pressure, forced out the wooden
plugs with loud report, and they were
Immediately followed by two jets of steam,
which formed dense cloud round the
god and concealed him from his astonish-
ed worshippers,"

MARK BANCROFT.

CONTENTION WITH DIFFICULTIEs.-You
will see persons who seem to enjoy such
advanta ges of birth and fortune, that they
can have no difficulties to contend with,
and some one of you may be tempted to
exclaim, show much is their lot to be pre-
ferred to lnine!'' A moderate experience
of the world will teach you not to be de-
ceived by these false appearances. They
have not your difficulties, but they have
their own; ,and those in whose path no real
difficulties ,are placed, will make difficult
ties for the mselves; or, if they fail to do
so, the dullness and monotony of their
lives will be more intolerable than any OF
those difficulties which they may make,
or which you find ready made for you.-
Real difficulties are much to be preferred
to those which are artificial or imaginary;
for, Of the former, the greater part may be
overcome by talent and enterprise, while
lit is quite otherwise with the latter class OF
difficulties.

UntutOred EIoquence

A Catawba warrior, in 1899, named
Peter Harris, made known his wants to
the Legislature OF South Carolina in the
following language:
81 am one of the lingering survivors Of
an almost extinguished race. Our graves
will soon be our only habitatlons. | am
one of the few stalks that still remain in
the field where the tempest of the revolu-
ton passed. have fought against the
British for your sake. The British have
disappeared, and you are, free; yet from
me have the British taken nothing, nor
have gained anything by their defeat
Ipursued the deer for subsistence; the deer
are disappearing, and must starve. God
ordained me for the forest, and my ambi.
ton is the shade. But the strength ofmy
arm delays me, and my feet fails me in the
chase. The hand which fought for your
liberties is now open for your relief In
my youth | bled that you might be inde-
pendent-let not my heart in my old age
bleed for want of your commisseration. )"
The warrior certainly never heard OF
Cicero or Demosthenes-he never attended
the school of eloquence in the Areopagus,
where the divine art was taught, and yet
when did those illustrious orators of anti.
quity deliver an address, which in a speech
so briefcontained such touching eloquence
as that from this warrior! Yet he was q
