TRY AYnin.

When the little BARN first commences
putting one of its tiny feet before the other,
and totters and falls, we say up and at it,
try again When the young student can
not manage his proposition in Arithmetic,
we say try again When the lover fails,
and his pensive eye bespeaks sorrow that
he thinks the sorrow of life, we tell him
to try again, faint heart never won fair
lady When the young and ambitious
man enters business without experience, or
general knowledge, or stability enough to
meet the responsibility of his position,
and fails, we are ready to say to him, try
again
But do older and should-be wiser heads
always practice it? We have now, hard,
gripping times-our money market, like 9TH
ers in the country, is tight-hard up. The
manufacturer, the merchant, and the me-
chanic find it hard work to get in as much
as is necessary to meet the demands OF
their business. 1t is tight times; but don't
give up-'try again Ifyou fail on one
hand in meeting your wants, try again,
try another.
The laborer has a hard time. Just at
this period everything he consumes is high,
and cash and his labor is low, and but
poorly paid, Doubtless many are dispos-
ed to yield in despair and say to themselves
they cannot get along. Hoot AVA, man,
upand at it. Try again. Stop all the
little leaks where money goes out, econo-
mise, get what work you can-if you fai
once, try again. Never be discouraged
and above all never try to feel rich on q
dime The poorest way in the world tc
get rid of sorrow or trouble is to try tc
drown them. They will not be drowned
The moment you plunge them under the
water, you open the Pandora box and
all the ills oflife fly out in quick success
sion. No, no. Keep trying-try again
Meet the enemy of difficulty, of want, and
of trial, with bold front, and you will con.
quer.
What is true of the material is of thu
spiritual world Often the spirit will fee
oppressed under the trials and temptation,
oflife. Holiness will lose its beauty
heaviness will rest upon the wings of thC
soul, and even the thought of heaven it
self clouded and covered as with an etern
al pail. But despair not. Try again, ant
you will throw off the leaden weight, yol
will raise above the cloud into the pur,
sunlight of the immortal and the true
Never yield. Try again. and while lif
lasts the trial will be help, surety o
success, and glory of the highest ant
most beautiful type.
Thus philosophises the Wheeling Ga
zette, and we heartily endorse the gooc
common sense put forth in it, There is n,
doubt but a little prudence and economy
coupled with determined industry and per
severance, will enable any one to pas
comfortably through the present hard time
and highprices.
A BEAUTIFUL INcIDENT.--A naval off
, Ger being at sea ina dreadful storm, hi
lady was sitting in the cabin near him, anc
, filled with alarm for the safety of the yes

serenity that she cried out:
MY dear, are you not afraid? How is j
possible fol you to be so calm in such
storm?
, He rose from his chair, rushed to tn
