Success In Life.

There is tale in the history of thehouse
Of Brunswick, that teaches lesson to dai
ly toilers after standing and reputation, as
well as to that class of aristocracy
<sWhose pedigree traced to earths earliest years,
Is longer than anything else but their ears"
During the troublesome times of Charles
I, country girl went to London and ap
piled for situation as servant maid, but
not being successful, finally became employ
ed as tub girl in brewery. The brewer
saw the plain, modest, industrious girl, and
her attention to business both won his res
pect and sympathy, and soon after he mar
ried her. While she was yet young and
pretty the brewer died, leaving his wife q
princely fortune Mr.. Hyde, afterwards
Earl of Clarendon, was chosen as lawyer
to settle the estate. Mr.. Hyde, lured by
the vast fortune, took the easiest way tc
secure it, and married the widow, once the
tub girl Of the brewery. BY this wife, Mr.
Hyde had one daughter, who became the
wife of James II, and mother of Mary and
Anne, Queens of England. Thus on ono
side the boosted blood of the 'illustrious
House of Brunswick arose from poor ser
want girl, whom, in later years, the family
would scarcely deign to spurn with q foot
and yet one in talents and honesty far their
superior
There is something Of moral in this
circumstance that may be studied with prof
it. DO not dcspise your roorer relations,
for though scant of money and worn by
want, be sure there may be a mine Of
wealth, of true feeling, under the dirty
wastcoat of the brown faced laborer.

Russian Terms of Peace.

Count NEssEIRoDE, the Cars Prime
Minister, has published a letter defining the
four terms on which Russia will accept peace
viz: A joint protectorate of the five ow-
ers over the Christians in Turkey; like
protectorate over the principalities subject
to existing Russian treaties; the revision of
the treaty of ls4l, CLOSING the Black Sea
against all nations except Russia and Tur
key,) to which Russia will assent if the
Sultan will; the free navigation of the Dan
ubc
This is a shrewd offer on the part of
NICHOLAS, for it opens the Black Sea to the
trade of all nations and so far would he an
advantage to,bur country. Heretofore the
Car has sought to render that sea merely a
Russian Lake.

California Shepherd Dog.

The San Jose Tribune gives the following
interesting account of the fidelity and vigi-
lance of the California Shepherd dog:
"Many of the rancheros of this valley
send out their sheep daily under the protec-
ton of their dogs alone, and feel assured
that in the evening they will be returned
safely to the fold. Day after day, and night
afternight, nay year after year, and through
whole lifetime the faithful sheep dogs are
found devoting every hour of their exist
ence, with faith that knows no change, to
the important trust reposed in them by their
owners. Whether beneath the scorching
rays of the summers sun, or amidst the
storms and chilling winds of winter-wheth.
er fed to repletion, or enduring the keen
pangs of hunger, he cheerfully goes each
morning to the performance of his daily
task-leading his flock over valley and
mountain, guarding them from the attacks
of all enemies throughout the day, and at
night returning them to their corrals No
persuasions, allurements or sufferings, can
seduce him from his vigilance or watchfu[
ness. AS the first note of dang r falls up
on his quick ear, his defiant voice is heard,
and he at once throws himself between his
flock and the approaching enemy, to fight
their battles and cover their retreat. And
many hard and gallant battles they are
forced to fight with the wolf, the coyote,
and dogs that have acquired the habit Of
killing sheep. We have seen many an old
veteran sheep-dog bearing the honorable
sears of hundred hard fought battles in
defence of his flock. If driven to the sad
alternative, they would perish beside their
flock with hunger before they would touch
one of them Often have We paused in adj
mirltiOn to watch these faithful and saga
cious animals in the performance of their
tasks, and thought that if only man would
perform the trust reposed in him with the
same unwavering, unchanging fidelity
would stand unawed, true, and firm amidst
surrounding dangers, unmoved by the allure
ments Of ambition, and the seductive influ-
ences of flattery, unbought by gain-how
much more just would be his claim to supe-
riOrity and dominion over all created things

LIABILITY OF HorELs.-Stringem Lar

Metropolitan Hotel, in New York, to re-
cover for money and other effects lost in

the south put up at the hotel in July last
and when ready to leave, ordered his bag.
gage to be brought down stairs; the ser
want returned with tidings that the trunk
had been broken open. Gold to the am.
cunt of $3.50. and several foreign coins
were distracted. The defence set up was.
that the Hotel notices ordered that money
should be placed in the safe in the Office;
the Court ruled that the proprietors of the

1t is said that the Russian loan has been taken at

eign capitalists, such the Hopes in Amsterdam,
the Rothschilds in Frankfort, with whom Mr.. Bel
mont is connected, and others, have bought large
amount, and the Tribune intimates that house in
Wall street is in possession of the official imperial
papers connected with this operation. The story
told about it is, that the loan made only to give
the lie to the assertion OF Frenc. and English
papers, that the Russian Treasury does not enjoy any
credit in Russia. 1t is likewise stated that Mr.. Ia
kowlef, of St. Petersburg, of the richest
of mines in the world, whose accumulated wealth
alone amounts to some sixty or eighty millions of dol
lars, wished to take this loan with his private CAPT.
tall but this refused by the Emperor, in order
not to 6 i've an occasion for Misrepresentation.
The general tenor of this statement conforms with
intelligence from various sources, which is that the
Gar has an abundance of money we'll as men at
his command 1t all completely upsets the theory Of
the Cobdcns who glorifed themselves upon the be-
lief that without British and German loans Nicholas
could not support three months campaign. 1t is

pcnsve sometimes, as the English are finding it Just

Fey The new cent pieces, it is said will
be issued from the Mint in the course of a
few days. They are considerably smaller
than the old cent pieces, and form an at
tractive copper coin. On one side is the
head of Liberty, and the thirteen stars be-
ing omitted, the surface is plain and pol.
ished. The reverse is the same in design as
the old cent, but is brighter and much more
finished. There is certain amount of alloy
mixed with the copper, and the perfection
of the die gives to the coin finish that has
never before been attained in our copper
coinage.
