Like the Angels.

ssWhy you would have me like the angels&
exclaimed young girl with whom a friend
had been talking.
Truly we would have women like the angels.
And why not Is it any harm to be like
gel9 We read that they are very beautiful
full of love, truth, purity, compassion, sinless.
Are these forbidden traits? Angels slander
not each other. They have circles in their
glorious home where characters are picked to
pieces. Angels never wreath the face with
smiles when envy is gnawing the very heart
strings in twain. Angels never rejoice over
the downfall of another. Angels lure not with
the eye and then coldly cast off with the lip
Angels suffer not passion to paint the brow
dark with discomfort and hatred.
Would YOU not wish eventually, to become
an angel? Or does this thought never enter
with the multitude that cross the mind S thresh-
old 2 Why not prepare, then, for this high
destination Why not discipline the sublime
thoughts and become beautiful in good deeds?
Cultivate you affections, be pure in thought
gentle in spirit. Danish forever deception,
evil speaking, inordinate love of pleasure =
Why not become as near as may be, angles on
earth All young ladies, believe US when We
tell you there is no harm in striving to be like
the angels.

The Grevtown Yictoryl

NAPoLEos it was, we believe, who said tn@t
the indignation of a people was not as fatal to
a government as its contempt. This is being
illustrated in the contempt and ridiculc pour
ed upon the administration for its prowess at
Greytown. That splendid achievement is
thus POLITICALLY celebrated in the n. Y. EUea-
ing Post:
Twas Captain Hollins led the fierce attack:
A man Of iron nerve and bendess back
Long were his cars and proud his martial tread
and calm his eye and very stout his head,
No wonder, when they saw his yengeful frown,
That Greytowns people fed the fated town,
Nor left behind single soul to dare
The fearful storm that upon them there
But when he saw his bastard foemen run,
Nor wait the thunder of single gun
Redoubled courage sw elled our hero's breast,
And conscious victory perched upon his crest
$40 arms he cried 'bring all the guns to bear;
Beard the fierce lion in his very lair;
Bombard the town What coward soul will quake
When foes have run and honor is at stake ~
Loud doomed the guns, and heavy fell the balls
With crushing weight empty shanty walls
A hundred thousand feet of lumber good
Was all destroyed, and several cords of wood;
The peaceful pigs that roamed in street and lane
Fell painting, bleeding, meath the iron rain;
And twice two score of brayest geese turned tail
And sought on frightened wing the distant vale

Origin of the Telescope.

The son of spectacle maker of Middle
burgh, in Holland, happened to amuse himself
in his fathers's shop, by holding two glasses
between his fingers and thumb and varying
their distances, perceived the weathercock of
the church spire opposite to him much larger
than ordinary, and apparently much nearer
and turned upside down. This new wonder
excited the fathers amazement; he adjusted
two glasses on a board, rendering them move
able at pleasure, and thus formed rude pros
pectfve glass. Galileo, hearing of the inven-
ton, set his mind in order to bring it to per-
fection. He fixed glasses at the end of long
organ pipes, and constructed telescope,
which he soon directed to the surrounding
heavens. He discovered four moons revolving
around the planet Jupiter, spots around the
surface of the sun, and the rotation Of the
globe around its own axis.

Party Prejudice.

A good anecdote is told of a cOuntryman
from New York who was visiting Washington
at the time Mr.. Van Buren was Vice Presi-
dent. Our friend was a red-hot democrat,
and of course held Mr.. Van Buren in the
highest reverence He sat in the circular
gallery of the Senate, gazing at the Vice
President with mingled feeling of awe and
state pride, when suddenly tall and majes-
tic form appeared at the side of the hall and
beckoned to Mr.. Van Buren. There was little
business doing, and the Vice President calling
a Senator to the chair, joined the person men
toned, when both seat ed themselves ona sofa,
both snuffed from the same box-the hand OF
the Vice President was laid playfully upon
the knee of his companion, and ever and anon
a hearty laugh would escape them, showing
that whatever might be the topic. it was one
which was agreeable to both .5A
SIS that Mr.. Calhoun with the Vice Presi-
dent p said our country friend, turning to a
person near him.
NO SIR
