Aphorisms.

More men are sorry for speaking than
keeping silent.
If you would be wealthy, think o.
saving as we'll as getting.
If you will not hear reason, she will
surely rap your knuckles.
We are not to judge of men from their
garb, or even from the sanctity of their
appearance.
Silent scorn inficts deeper wound on
the feelings of foolish man than a posi-
tive atfront.
The best way to treat SANDER is to let
1t alone, and say nothing about it.. 1t soon
dies when fed on silent contempt.
Be true to thy friend. Never speak of
his faults to another, but open them all to
him with gentleness and love.
Mental pleasures never cloy. Unlike
those of the body, they are increased by
repetition, approved of by reflection, and
strengthened by enjoyment.
The greatest riches man can possess is
10 know now TO live on limited income
with a cOntented mind
The world is peopled with fools and
he who would avoid seeing one must lock
himself up alone, and break his looking
glass.
Have the courage to speak your mind
when it is necessary you should do so,
and to hold your tongue when it is neces-
sary you should be silent.
1t is not what we earn, but what we
save, that makes us rich. 1t is not what
we eat, but what we digest, that makes us
fat. 1t is not what we read, but what we
remember, that makes us learned. All
this is very simple, but it is worth re-
membering.
Anger wishes that all mankind had but
one neck love, that it had only one heart
When men speak i'll of thee, live so as
nobody will believe them.
AS modesty is the greatest ornament of
woman, SO the want of it is her greatest
deformity.

Echoes of the sweet songs ringing.
Through the wales of paradise:
Visions of bright fountains gushing

And the red wine rivers rushing
BY the pearl and amber strands.
Loving spirits hover near us,
Clothed in silent robes of light.
And with seraph voices WOO us
To the regions of delight;
Voices OF exquisite sweetness

But your wings of fairy fleeiness.
Still elude my outstretched arms.

With their holy balm of healing
For bruised spirits wounds;
Breathing a delightful story

THE NORTHERN ROUTE TO THE PACIFIC.
On the 9th of June, Governor Stevens
struck his camp on the margin of Lake
Amelia, near Fort Smelling, and followed
his advance parties towards the Sank
rapids, in survey of his route to Puget's
Sound. The force operating from the head
waters of the Mississippi westward con-
sists of about eighty men, who can be
subdivided into four parties. Upon ap-
preaching the Rocky Mountains the rail-
way survey will probably have to be sus-
pended, and the whole force be applied to
the general reconnaissance. By October,
Governor Stevens expects to get through
the Rocky Mountains. He has authority
to treat with the Black Feet Indians and
other tribes through whose country he
will pass, and has appointed MIR. Culbert-
son a special agent among them, who will
advise them of the approach of the eXpe-
dition, and convene grand council at
Fort Union, within four hundred miles,
which the wagons Of the American Fur
Company traverse in twenty days. All
due pains will be taken to keep peace with
the Indians, but the party i prepared for
defense with howitZer and Sharps rifles,
firing ten shots minute. Lieutenant
Rufus Saxton, of the army, is commits
stoned to establish 4 depot at the Flat
Head village, St. Mary's.

An UNREASONABLE SHERIFF. Some
years ago sheriff in the northern part
of Vermont held writ Of execution
against one of his neighbors, which, as
usual in cases Of this sort with the debtor
in question, he had great difficulty In
collecting, and, indeed, was compelled at
last to resort TO the more stringent pro-
visions Of the law The debtor thought
a man of limited means was a person OF
unlimited hopes and expectations, and
gave his parol of honor to the officer that
he would certainly pay the debt by a
certain day. The day came, and so did
the sheriff, but no money. Again and
again day was fixed for payment OF the
execution, but no advance was made
towards . liquidation. At last, as the
execution had well nigh ''run out" the
sheriff told the debtor that the debt must
be paid at once, or he should proceed i'm
mediately to advertise and sell his per-
sonal chattelS. The debt was not large,
but the sum was not an easy one to raise
on the spot, and the debtor begged for a
DELAY of one day more. The sheriff
was memorable. - give you my word
of honor" said the debtor. ut won't
do" said the sheriff. III pledge you
this Bible" said the debtor-otfering a
large family Bible worth more than the
amount of the execution. Il don't want
it., said the officer. ''Well, then, re.
piled the debtor, indignantly, " If you
won't take my word, nor the word OF
God, for the debt, you may 60 to the
devil"
