CONE TO HE IN DREAMS.

Exceedingly fine are the following verses b
PRENTICE, Of the Louisville Journal, and the re
sponse by LISDoRA,a maid of the Southern cline
is sweet and to the point-no dallying, no wait
ing to think on the subject, but she speaks OF
boldly, and says "she's ready" But read thel
and Judge:
Come In beautiful dreams, love,
Oh. come to me oft,
When the light wing of sleep,
On my bosom lies soft;
Oh, come when the sea
In the moons gentle light
Beats low on the ear,
Like the pulse of the night
When the sky and the wave,
Wear their loveliest hue,
When the 6ews on the flower,
And the star on the dew.
Come in beautiful dreams, love.
Oh, come aud we'll stray
Where the whole year is crowned
WittTthe blossoms Of May
Where each sound is as sweet
g, As the coo of the dove,
Aud the,gales are as soft
Asthe bre epthings of love;
Where the winds kiss the waves
And the waves KISS the DeacD,
And our warm lips may catch
The sweet lessons they teach.
Come in beautiful dreams, love.
Oh, come and we'll fly,
Like two winged spirits
Of love through the sky;
With hand claspcd in hand
On dreams wen 60,
Where the starlight and moonlight
Are blending their glow;
And on bright clouds We'll linger
Through long dreary hours,
Till loves angel envy
That heaven of ours.

Labor aRa Iibs.

When Man was driven from the Garden
OF Eden, it was decreed that he should earn
his bread by the sweat of his brow. If the
history OF the age is credible, that edict has
never been altered. Either from the corrup-
tion Of mans primitive tastes, or the force OF
wants consequent upon the change, the earth,
though mellow and generous to toll, has,
steadily refused to yield spontaneously the
fruits, of Eden. To satisfy hunger and thirst,
to defend the body from heat and cold, and
to shelter 1t from storm and danger, man has
been obliged to tax his invention and to ex-
ert powers, which his original simplicity
might have avoided. Gcd did not turn him
from his earthly paradise without making
good provisions for his new wants. Sterile
as the unbroken turf seemed, it yielded to the
stick iron: and and when the drv seed
was cast into it, the rains, dews and sun
shine, nourished them into plentiful harvcsts.
But necessity-the ever recurring calls of
human wants, which are as angel infirmities
have allowed him no cessation from labor.
To, live, to generate and fulfill being "fa-
ded but not lost he has been forced to toll
from day to day, providentially permitted
IN the average, to accumulate little beyond
supplying immediate wants. In the perpet-
ual summer of Eden, nature provided all
things; out ofthat man came rs a savage,
without plan or capital beyond the capacity
of his hands, or the fruitfulness of the earth.
Step by stephe emerged from the depcn-
dence of ignorance and folly-he smote the
forests-furrowed and drained the Garth
reared his dwellings-while broad fields fill
ed with focks and herds, and populous cities
crowned with domes and spires, rose before
him until he is what we now see, the genius
of civilization, by toll mastering the elements
to do his bidding. .. .s,
Nor will man ever be exempt from toll.
All that is fair and noble in this picture of
his triumph has risen from the motion of ac-
tive hearts and hands. Garden and grain
field, cottage and palace, temple and monu-
ment, the shrines and alters whereon the
highest faiths and holiest affections are con.
secrated, are the creations of toil-toil, which
in the wilderness, in the van of armies, and
in council halls, not forgetting the glorious
birth of man, has bowed to the first edict OF
God. BY sweat, and in pain, the great, the
true and the heroic have wrought out their
lives, and their brows bear the only crowns
that sparkle with imperishable diamonds
Let no man scorn labor-labor, which fate
has dictated as the basis of our earth-iife
and with which the Supreme Being rolls and
rules the universe in its immensity-N. Y

Business f abits.

1t is an awkward thing to begin in the
world without a dollar-and yet hundreds of
individuals have made fortunes from single
shilling The stone obelisk which the citi-
zens of London erected in Fleet street as a tes-
timony of their respect for the political con-
duct of the late Mr.. Workman, had been
better dedicated to his capacity for busi-
ness>~-a capacity which enabled him, as it
did Stephen Girard, to create thousands of
pounds from a single bank note. know a
gentleman, builder, in an extensive way of
business, now worth 100000 who was a
brick-layer's laboror some six years ago at 81
per day. He became rich by acting upon
principle. He has frequently assured me,
that even when he was i'll paid, he continued
to save fifty cents per day, and thus laid by
1882 the first year. From this moment his
fortune was made like hound upon the
right scent--the game, sooner or later won.
was sure to become his own. Another very
extensive firm-one of whom has since died
and left behind him an immense property
the other is still alive, and has realized as
much; ; and, yet both these men came to
New York without cent, and swept the very
shop wherein they both afterwards made
their fortunes. Like the builder, whom we
have just mentioned, they possessed On liz
domitable spirit Of industry. perse.e1..i,,,, and
frugality, and the first half crown became in
consequence the foundation Of a, million
more.
The world at large would call these indi-
viduals fortunate, and ascribes their property
to good iaek but the world would be very
wrong in doing so. If there was any luck
at all in the matter, it was the luck of pos
sessing clear heads and willing hands, have
carved outtheir own fortunes, as well as those
instances above cited. BY the word, "6usi
ness means habit. Paradoxical as it may
appear, at first sight business is nothing in
the world but habit---the soul Of which is
regularity. Like the fly wheel upon steam
engine, this last keeps the motion of life stea-
dy and unbroken, thereby enabling the ma
chine to do its work without obstruction.--
Without this regularity" your notions as a
merchant may be capital, but they never will
be profitable.
Picture to yourself a ship without com
passi alock without key; or carriage
without wheels. These are all types of {

The End Of Great Men,

Alexander, after having climbed the dizzy
heights Of ambition, and with his temples
bound with chaplets, dipped in the blood OF
countless nations, looked upon the world,
and wept that there was not another world
for him to conquer, set city on fire, and
died in scene of debauch. s..
Hannibal, after having, to the astonish-
ment and CONSERVATION Of Rome, passed the
Alps, after having put to fight the arms, Of
the mistress of the world, and made her
very foundation shake-fed from his coun-
try, being hated by those who once exulting-
.ly united his name to that of their god and
called him Hanni Bal-and died at last by
poison administered by his own hands, un-
lamented and unwept, in a foreign land
Caesar, after having conquered eight hund-
red cities, and dyed his garments in the blood
Of one million of his foes; after having pur-
sued to death the only rival he had on earth,
was miserably assassinated by those he con-
sidered his nearest friends and in that very
place the attainment of which had been his
greatest ambition.
Bonaparte, whose mandate kings and
popes obeyed, after having filed the earth
with the terror Of his name--after having
deluged Europe with tears and blood, and
clothed the world in sackcloth--closed his
days in lonely banishment almost literally
exiled from the world, yet whore he could
sometimes see his countrys banner waving
over the deep, but which would not, or could
not bring him add

FEMALE LovE.-We think the following
remarks must be more applicable to English
than American society. In this country
marrying "for love" is certainly, the rule
and not the exception, Mrs. Grove to the
contrary notwithstanding. This lady says:
-"low very few women have ever been in
love, How very few even marry from cleo.
ton They marry because they are asked,
and because the marriage is suitable. 1t is
their vocation to be married parents ap-
prove, and they love no other attachment
Any observant person living in society,
where there is continued marrying and Civ
en- in marriage, must be struck with this
fact. CupiIs quivcr must be exhausted, or
his arrow blunt-he plerces few hearts now.
| am inclined to think that a girl really in
love-one who bore the symptoms of the
malady be thought very improper:
yet have often fancied that there must be
man born in the world for every woman,
one whom to see would be to love, to rever-
ence, to adore; one with whom our sympa.
thies would so entirely blend, that she would
recognize him at once her true lord Now
and then these pairs come together; and
woe to her that meets this other self too latel
Women would be more humble and merci-
full if they did not, through ignorance and
thoughtlessness, measure the temptations of
others by their own experience"

~ SnoRT RoMANCE.-The following 70.
mantle incident is said to have occurred a
few years before the Russian conquest of
Armenia. The Sirdar ielI violently in love
with beautiful Armenian maiden, and de-
manded her from her parents. Their sup
plications, and those of the girl herself were
unavailing; for, although she had lover,
she was not formally. bethroliie.i; she was
consequently carried off to the harem. Dur
ing the night, her lover entered the palace
gardens, and, in low voice, commenced
singing beneath the windows of the harcm,
in the hope that she would hear him. Soon
a window was opened, and some one leaped.
out Fearing that his singing had BETRAYED
him, he fed; but as he heard nothing more.
he crcpt back, and found his beloved caught
in the branches Of a tree, which had broken
her decent to the ground. He helped her
down, and they prepared for flight, but be-
ing overheard, they were pursued and caught,
and in the morning they were brought be-
fore the Sirdar; when the latter had heard
the circumstances of the case, he exclaimed,
ii see that in the sight Of God you were al
ready betrothed. Lovers so true should
never be parted; live happily together, and
God be with you!n
