SELFBHNRSS UNCHRISTIAN.-Live for
some purpose in the world. Fill up the
measure Of duty to others. Conduct
yourself so that you shall be missed with
sorrow when you are gone. Multitudes
of our species are living in such selfish
manner that they are not likely to be re-
niembered after their disappearance.
They leave behind them scarcely any
traces Of their existence, but are forgotten
almost as though they had never been.
They are, while they live, like one sbble
upobserved among million on the shore,
and when they die they are like that same
pebble thrown into the sea, which Just
ruffies the surface, sinks, and is forgotten
without beipg missed from the beach.
They are neither regretted by the rich,
wanted by the poor, nor celebrated by
the learned,o7 Who has been better for
their life whose tears have they drled
up :. Whose miserieS have they healed $
Whose wants supplied Z Who would
lnbar the gate of life TO re-admit' them
to existence, or what face would greet
them back to. our world with, q smils
Wretched dhprod Give mode of existence
Selfishhess il its own curse: it is . astaryvi

gets none. He is like the heath IN the
tdetest; neither yiel6ing fruit nor seeing

EDGAR A. POE IN POrrKRs FEL

EDGAR A. Foe IN POrTKRs FIELD.
Among the legion Of Edgar A. Poe's
poeticA admirers how few of them realize
the, fact that the remains of the author of
the Raven" are still mouldering in an
obscure corner Of the Potter's Field of
baltimore. A correspondent from that
city to the st. Louis Republican, in call
ing attention to the fact, says: 49,.
at seems as if, in the Monumental
City, little slab, at least, might be
raised, inscribed with the poets name.
1t would speak to many hearts. Poe,
the noble, though shattered column in
our Muses. Temple, whose poems, like
some of Coleridge and Shelley's, tremble
with that strange melody which not often
veuchsafed to be breathed by human
tongue & HIS tomb will be pleasurable
and useful TO many who love to paw
piouS plgrimages to the grave Of genins.
1t is indeed of no consequence to him,
enfranchised whether his body be rcver-
epced or dishonored but to the living who
feel that our mortal frames, made IN the
image of our maker, created as fit tenn
pies for the indwelling of immortal souls,
and reserved for a glorious resurrection,
it seems very sad that his remains should
be suffered to decay in obscurity. Edgar
A. Poe, has his faults and his virtues.
Let the former be forgotten and the latter
be commemorated Let no human being
venture to pass judgment upon his deeds
done in the body for that Office belongs
to q higher power, but Jet us rather cos-
slider his temptations, greater as his pow.
ers, greater, and so draw . gentle veil
over hisi hailties, and reverence him for
the noble thoughts which be recorded"

AVERY SLIGHT DIFFERENCE.-How one

his friends on the streets, as th is: Fell

reply. Cant give it, my friend. You're

"tell what-Ill give you twenty-five dol,

said the Jockey, tossing bis leg over the
saddle, and slowly sliding to the ground;
"but never was the man to let hun
dred and twenty-five dollars split me in
a hoss trade. He's youln" Panker
took the horse, and has him yet, having
utterly failed in dozen efforts to give
him away. His last Il ial YVES to bestow
him on Prof. Snow. Veterinarian, to be
used as living illustration of all diseases
to which the horse is subject in tbs
