The DEATH OF PRINcE SCHwARrzEN-
BERG.-We have already recorded the sud
den decease by appoplexy, of Prince
Schwarzenburg, the celebrated Austrian
Prime Minister, which occurred on the
9th of April, at Vienna. He was the
most eminent man in the empire, and has
done more to strengthen it than any other
man living, Since Metternich's retire
ment, Schwsrzenberg has been the soul
of the imperial government. Bold, coura-
gcous, and devoted to absolutism, he has
been the most efficient instrument in the
destruction of liberty on the continent of
Europe, He was the leader of the reac-
tionary movement that commenced in
l848, and it is to his counscls, backed as
they were, by Russia, that the defeat Of
Hungary is to be attributed. His death
will prove terrible blow to the House of
Hapsburg, The following not very COM
record is made of his life:
" Prince Felix Schwarzcnberg WAS
born on the end Of October, 1900. In
early life he evinced in social life the UNI
scrnpulous llbertinism that was after
wards evinced in his political career In
London he seduced and eloped with la
dy of rank, for which he was prosecuted,
and, failing to pay the damages decreed,
was declared an outlaw. Afterwards, in
Naples, he continued his career of crimi-
nal gallantry, for which, in ono instance,
he was severely chastised by an injured
husband, He served under Radctsky in
1915, and was in November of that year
made Prime Minister, an office which he
filled till his death, In every relation,
private and public, he has been man of
intrigue, with the boldness to venture
everything in pursuit of an object. and
the skill to accomplish all he undertook,
lie will live long in the memory of all,
for his vices and his cruelties, and the
bold, energetic courage which he display
ed in their exercise"

A MODERN RoMULUs-Straage story
The Delphi Gazette relates an almost incre-
dible story Of the discovery of boy, who had
consorted with wolves so early that nearly
every trace of humanity had been lost. He
walked, or ran, on all fours, and after his re-
moval into the service of an officer, he still
delighted in the company ofjackals, and 9TH
er small four-footed animals, whom he would
make his trencher companions. He was new
er known to smile, and only spoke once to
indicate that his head ached. He died sud-
denly after drinking some water. This poor
creature was recognized by bis parents; but
they soon became disgusted and deserted
him His age at the time Of his death, was
apparently twelve years.

To KEEP YoUNG.--No surer destroyer Of
youths privileges, and powers, and delights,
than yielding the spirit to the empire of i'll
temper and selhshncss. We should all be
cautious, as we advance in life, OF allowing
occasional sorrowful experiences to over
shadow our perception Of the prepondercnce
of good. Faith in good is at once its own
rectitude and reward. To believe good and
to do good, truly ard trustfully, is the health
lest of humanity's conditions. To take
events cheerfully and to promote the hap
piness of others, is the way to insure an en-
during spring Of existence. Content and
kindliness are the soft vernal showers and
fostering sunny warmth that keepa mans
nature and being fresh and green. "Lord
keep my existence fresh and green" would
be no less wise prayer than the one so
beautifully recorded respecting mans
memory. If we would leave a gracious
memory behind us, there is no way better
Gale culatcd to secure it than by living gracious.
ly. A cheerful and benign temper, that
buds forth pleasant blossoms, ,and bears sweet
fruit for those who live within its influence,
is sure to produce undying remem-
brnnces that shall flourish immortality after
the present stock is decayed and gone.-MrS.

HANDSOME MEN.-One of our exchanges
contains the following curious remarks, re-
lating to handsome men: "If you are ever
threatened with handsome man in the fam
lily, just take the clothes FOUNDER, while he
is yet in bed, and batter his head to a pun
mace. From some cause or other, hand
some men are asses; they cultivate their
hair and compilations so much, that they
have no time to think of their brains. BY
the time they reach thirty, their hands and
heads are equally soft. Again, we say, II
you wish to find an intelligent man, just
look for one with features SO rough that
they might use his face for nutmeg gra-
teri" rlat

sItzya Boxs.-A lazy boy mikes lazy
man, lust as sure as crooked twig makes
crooked tree Who ever yet saw boy grow
nm in idleness that did not make a shiitless
when he became man, unless he
had a fortune left him to keep M appearance
es. The great mDss of thieves, paupers and
criminals thatfill our penitentiaries and aims
houses, have come up to whatthey are by
being brought up in idleness. Those who
constitute the business portion ofthe com
munitv, those who make our great and use
full men, were trained up in their boyhood to
be cindustrious.
When boy is old enough to begin TO
play in the street then he is old enough to be
taught how to work. OF course we would
not deprive children of hcaltbful exercise,
or the time they should spend in study, but
teach them to work little by little as child
is taught at school. In this way they acquire
habits OF industry that will not lorsake them
when they grow up.
Many persons who are poor let their chill
dren grow up to fourteen or fifteen years d
age, or till they can support them no longer
before they put them to labor. Such chill.
dren, not having any idea of what work is
and having acquired habits Of idleness, GO
forth to impose upon their employers WIN
lnziness. There is a repuisivehess IN az
labor set before them, and to getit done, nc
matter how, is their only aim. They are
ambitious at play, but dull at work. The
consequences is, they do not stick to one
thing. but short time; they rove about the
world get into mischief, and finally find the
way to the prison or the aims house.

MORMON PoLITIcs.-The Mormons who
flourish on Beaver Island, Lake Michigan,
are perfect Robinson Crusoeb months of
the year, and during the balance are favored
with the occasional visits of propellers and
sail vessels. The men take life easy and
resignedly; the women are Bloomerish in
dress and do most of the drudgery Politics
have slow growth in the Mormon New
Jerusalem, the Saints having higher aims
and objects, and an "ambition" other sects
as well as worldings might emulate and lose
nothing here or hereafter. The Northern
Islander, the organ Of the Prophet SrRANG
and his followers, thus clearly defines the
state of politics in Beaver Islands Mormon
don't considerable anxiety is manifested
by gentleman passing here to know how the
Mormons are going to vote this fall. We
have only to say that the vote of the Nor
mons, when cast and counted, will tell for
whom they vote. Politics are at ninety mine
per.cen discount, and slow at that. The
people here are of one mind, and their whole
ambition is to keep the commandments OF
their Heavenly Father, knowing that by so
doing alone they have hope of his mercy and
protection"

count of any such debt, the execution may
be levied upon the property of any inhabi.

and Hon. Daniel Webster, certify that such
a law exists in Massachusetts, and that it
applies to the city Of Boston.
