entail nations. a coiucident fact with
this one is the discovery lately made Of
a Hebrew volume found in the possession
Of western tribe of Indians, an account
of which has already been given in al
most every newspaper, and will doubtless
be remembered by our readers. To
what nation the authors of this Aztec
volume belonged, is yet mystery,
though the facts would seem to indicate
a Jewish origin /; for although there are
no Hebrew characters in the book, the
known fact of the disappearance Of the
twelve tribes, the many similarities be-
tween the customs, rites and ceremo-
MES of the Aztecs and those of the an
cient Jews, and other circumstances OF
the same nature, lend plausibility to the
theory of a Hebrew origin.
This singular manuscript will be sub
mitted to the learned for their opinion.

PUNcrUALITY.- that's the word

PUNCrUALITY.- that's the word
|-punctuality did you ever see a man
who was punctual, who did not prosper
in the long rum We don't care who
or what he was-high gh or low, black or
white, ignorant or learned, savage or
civlized-we know if he did as he
agreed, and was punctuaI in all his en-
|gagements, he prospered, and was more
respected than his shiftless, lying neigh
Dor.
Many who commence business should
be careful how they neglect their obliga-
tions, and break their word. A person
who i prompt can always be accommo-
dated, and is therefore I" lord over
another mans purse" as Franklin would
say. Never make promises upon uncer-
tainties. Although the best men may
sometimes fail to do as they would, the
case is exceedingly rare. He who is
prompt to fulfill his word will never make
a promise where it is not next to moral
certainty that he can do as he agrees.
If you would succeed, be punctual to the
hour. Return borrowed money the
moment you promised. In all things,
if you arc thus prompt, we will risk you
life you will succeed you can
not help it. Those who are prompt in
their business affairs, are generally so in
every department of life. You never
know them to be late at church, to the
polls, or to pay the Printers for adver-
Using. A promptuess in every thing
characterizes them.

Twas in the autumn's dreary close,
A long, long time ago;
The berries Of the brier-rose
Hung bright above the snow, -,
And night had spread shadow wild
About the earth and sky,
When, calling me, her orphan child,
She said that she must die.
She rests within the quiet tomb,
The narrow and the chill
The window Of our cabin homo
Looks out upon the hill.
o, when the world seems wild and wide
And the friends TO love me few,
I think Of how she loved and died,
And gather strength anew.

B6y- The labor attendant upon prt

B0- The labor attendant upon pro-
pagating manuscript copies Of volumes
prior to the invention of printing has
been thus very feelingly described by
William Caxton: "Thus end 1 this
book and for as moche as in writing the
same my penne is worn, myn hande
very, and myn eyne dimmed with over
moche looking on the whit paper, and
that age crecpeth on me dayly."
Anciently 80 years were sometimes
in producing a single volume.
At the sale of Sir w. Burrel's books,
May, 1896, was displayed Ms Bible
on vellum, beautifully written with a
pen, and illuminated, which had taken
upwards of a half a century to perform;
tho writer, Guido de Jars, began it in
his fortieth year, and yet did not finish
it till he was upwards Of ninety.

cheerfulness. We don't care how rud-

her lips, if she wears scowl even her
friends will consider her i'll looking,
while the young lady who illuminates
her conference with smiles, will be
regarded as handsome, though her COM

nose, so is good nature to the lovely.

made of India rubber. Artificial hands,
&C., are also made. 1t is generally be-
lievcd that India rubber will never be
required to supersedc the material OF
which a great number of oonsciences are
made.

Poets Vision, or Ideal OfFame.

I. Visions Of fame that did visit me.
Making night glorious with your smiles, where are
yeF-LosGTELLow.
In slumber sweet the poet lies,
A smile plays on his cheek,
Visions Of hope before him rise,
Of future fame they speak.
The tuneful sisters greet his Tyre
And lov'd applause he gains;
Fame leads him on, he mounts still higher
To reach sublime strains.
The f" Beauties at his call attend,
The 4" Loves" support his pride,
Their influence the Graces" lend,
His thoughts the " Virtues" guide.
Fancy invites him TO her realms,
Where Fairy spirits roam;
He seeks the fair and glttering gems
Which grace the Elfn's home.
From far beneath the sportiye waves
He calls the watery god,
The Tritons and the Mercedes
Attend his magic word.
Through Fancy's rich and boundless world
He roams with wild delight,
While dazzling visions are unfurled
To his bewildered sight.
Lofty Parnassus comes in view,
Ambition urges on
To minor aims he bids adieu,
Till fame supreme is won.
Aspiring still he onward moves,
The Muses. mount is gained,
Those heights sublime he fondly loves,
Yet seeks the unattained.
On, yet beyond, the phantom-fame
Almost within his grasp;
He strives to win noble name
Fame to his bosom clasp.
His dream is DER, he wakes anon,
Those hopes which seom'd so fair,
While fame encouraged, led him on;
Have melted into air.
lie tunes his Tyre anew, once more,
Gives forth his choral strains,
But faded are his dreams of yore,
And fruitless all his pains.
He labors for his daily bread,
Receives but scanty pay,
Scarce knows where to lay his head
When night usurps the day.
And when his earthly work is done,
His early dream Of fame
Lives on some costly lettered stone
Bearing the Poets name.
E'en such are the rewards of fame,
a Traveller on the road,
Living, bears but Poets name.
When dead, almost a gods.
