EDWARD EvERETT.-Few, if any who
are familier with the career of this distin-
guished son of Massachusetts,, will dissent
from the Justice of The following tribute to
his talents and worth, which is taken
from the New York Mirror. Mr.. Everett
IS not only man of undoubted genius,
and highly cultivated mind, but an emf
nent statesman and sincere patriot:
Edward Everett's career has been
marked. and as men say, fortunate. But
ne owes nothing to accident He is not
chance man. His flower, from the bud,
has been self-nurtured, self.developed. He
has wrought his uwn fortunes. As a
scholer he is ripe. In all the elegancies
and retlnements Of literature he has no
superior. With the story of the past
ages-of men, nations and governments
he is familiar. He is a philosopher.
gathering wisdom from their errors: a
poet, weaving his own glorious web from
their romance: statesman, needing their
lessons: an orator, glowing with the fires
kindled from their heroic, their sublime,
and their beautiful epochs''

Yankee Johnisms.


Picheton's Precisely the idea,
Mr.. PickletoE. Just the name in thous-
and. A bar to honor, wealth, fame, hap
piness, life itself, is your bar, Mr.. Pickle
ton. A bar that horse won't leap, a
cow won't browse by, and pig scorns to
root under.
Mr., PickletOn, Yankee John feels Sc
rious twinge every time he looks at those
great capital letters-PI CKLETON's BAR.
If the bells should ring some night, and
the fires leap out, and a voice should cry
-" PickletOn's bar is burned up or
down-Yankce John could devoutly eiac-
ulate -"amen !"
He considers it clean swndle when
he sees some ragged little wretch whose
shoes, stockings, and unmentiOna bles,
go down his fathers throat, at Pickleton s
bar. 0 ! out upon you Pickleton. Gather
up the fragments of your soul and listen
TO reason.
Look at that woman. She's as good
as your wife; but you beggar her-you
bruise her-you smite her to the earth
you murder her inch by inch in cold
blood. Somethir that she calls hus-
band y you use for your tool. You make
sofa beast-a dwelling idiot of him.
Miserable Pickleton-wretch were too
tame to call thee.
Pickteton's bar-Handsome place !.
sparkling wines fine pictures genteel
brandy rinsers! and over all clever per-
sonage, called in old-ashoned English
"the devil" who holds heavy mortgage
on Pickleton, Pickleton's bar, and all
Pickleton's customers.
Beware of Pickleton's bar. So pravs

STRIKER!
BY REV. RALPH HOYT.

BY REV. RALPH HOYT.
I've liking for this " striking"
g If we only do it well
Firm, defiant, like giant,
Strike and make the effort tell
One another, working brother,
Let Us freely now advise;
For reflection and correction
Help to make us great and wise.
Work and wages, say the sages,
Go forever hand in hand
As the motion Of an ocean,
The supply and the demand
My advice is, strike for prices
Nobler far than sordid coin;
Strike with terror, sin and error,
And let man and master ioin
Every failing now prevailing
In the heart or in the head
Make no clamor, take the hammer
Drive it down. strike it dead
Much the chopping, looping, propping,
Carpenter, we have to do.
Ere the plummet, from the summit,
Mark our moral fabric true.
Take the measure of false pleasure;
Try each action by the square;
Strike a chalk-line for your walk-line;
Strike to keep your footsteps there.
The foundation of creation
Lies in truths unerring laws,
Man of mortar, there's no shorter
Way to base a righteous cause.
Every builder, painter, glider,
Men Of leather, men of clothes,
Each mechanic in panic
With the way his labor goes
Let him reason thus in season;
Strike the root of all his wrong;
Cease his quarrels, mend his morals,
And be happy, rich and strong
