81 DID as THE REST DID"

This tame. yielding spirit-this edo
inc as the rest did'--has ruined thou
sands.
A young man is invited by vicious
companions to visit the tavern, or the
gambling rooms, or other haunts oflieen-
tiousness. He becomes dissipated, spends
his property, and atlast sinks into an IN
timely grave. What ruined him ? SIM
ply "doing what the rest did"
A father has family of sons he IS
wealthy. Other children in the same
situation of life do so and so, are inaal-
ged in this thing and that. He INDUCES
his own in the same way. They grow
up idlers, trifiers. and fops- The faith
er wonders why his children do not sue
ceed better. He has spent 50 much
money on their education, has given
them great advantages; bul, alas they
are only a source of vexation and trou-
BILE. Poor man! he is just paying the
penalty of "dOing as the rest did"
This poor mother strives hard to bring
up her daughters genteelly. They learn
what others do. to paint, to sing. to play,
to dance, and several other usesul mat
ters. In time they marry; their hus-
bands are unable to support their ex-
travagauce, and they are soon reduced
to poverty and wretchedness- The good
woman is astonished. Truly" says
she, 81 did as the rest did,

A MODEL MERCHANT.

The Cincinnati Columbian has the
following review of the Diary and Cor
respondence of the late Amos Lawrence,
of Boston, as published by his son. The
book should be in the hands of every
young man
The daily life of a man ike Amos
Lawrence, in his fully developed years,
is a sermon cousummate in its faith, and
as perfect in its works, as we can expect
from any living being, less than divine.
We seldom hear of such men and more
seldom still do We see them but when
they do come, they are not only the
blessings of country, bat great and
eloquent teachers for generations that
follow them. As this volume will be
seen BY but comparatively few of our
readers, we are satisfied, that we can DO
them no better service, than to devote q
column, TO very rapid glance at two or
three of the NEST distinctive features of
its contents.
DR.. Lawrence had an arduous task to
perform. The biegraPber of his father,
he would naturally have great delicacy
in publishing to the word, the generous,
noble and praiseworihy traits of charac-
ter, which made up almost the whole of
that fathers existence, but without such
publication, there could be ne biography
Of Amos Lawrence. He has therefore,
with excellent taste complied a volume,
which is strictly what processes TO be

has succeeded in his delicate task Is

one hundred copies of the volume were
first printed not published) for private
circulation among family connections ;
but at the earnest solicitation of many
public societies snd private friends, it is
now given TO the public. 1t will be a
matter of interest to our readers to know
that for a work of its kind, its sales have
certainly been unparalleled. Many Of

can equal.'
I'VE have already trespassed beyond
the space We had intended to occupy
with our notice. No sketch of the life of
such man as Amos Lawrence can be
outlined in a newspaper article. To him,
to his noble brothers, and to a few like
them, we owe much for what they have
done, and mole, for what they have
shown us and the world how to do.

Have you seen our beaRteous Fairy,
Merry, laughing Rosa Bell,
With her footsteps light snd airy,
Bounding DER the grassy dell?
Witching voice, like silvery music
Floating from murmuring shell;
Tones that fill the soul with rapture
Sweet, enchanting Rosa Bell.
Brow of light, by ringlets shaded,
Golden as the sunbeam's hue;
Pouting lips, like dainty rubies,
Countless kisses seem to sue.
Meath her lashes, long and siIken,
Violet eyes like twin stars, tell
OF a heart both true and tender
Winsome, loving Rosa Bell.
Have you seen her by the fountain,
Or the brook she loved so well
Can you welcome tidings bring ne
0fmy missing Rosa Bell
We have sought her on the hillside,
And within the fowery dell,
But no more our sight she glzddens,
Rosa, loved so long and well.
Gone, IKE leaves at close of summer,
Or like clouds at early day;
Gone, to join the angel harpers,
In land far, far away.
Cease, my heart, thy wild, fierce threbbing;
'Tis the distant funeral knell,
All my darling's years slow counting,
All the years Of Rosa Bell.
Meath the willows dropping branches,
We have laid her down to sleep;
Pearly buds and lowly grasses
Loving vigils DER her kesp.
Bitter Tears like rain are falling,
And my grief cannot quell-
One fond heart will meier forget thee
Sainted Rosa, fare thee wei.

WHAT SHALL Benny ANGEL NAME?
BY FLORENCE PERCY

BY FLcEENCE fERC1~
In the land where 1 am going,
When rly earthly life is Ger,
Where the tired hands cease their striving,
And the tired heart aches no more
In that land of light and beauty,
Where no shadows ever came,
To o'erclOud the perfect glory
What shall be my angel names
When the spirits who await me,
Meet me at my entering in,
With what name of love and music
Will tender welcoming bringf
Not the one SO dimmed with earth-stains,
Linked with thoughts of grief and p2in'
No-the name that mortals gave me
Will not be my angel namei
] have heard it all too often,
Uttered by unloving lipsi
Earthly care and sin and sorrow,
Dim it with their deep eclipse;
/ shall change it like garment,
When leave this mortal frame,
And at life's immortal baptism
shall have another namel
For the angels will not call me
By the name bear on earth;
They will speak bolier language
When have hOIier birth;
SyIlabled in heavenly music
Sweeter far than earth may claim
Very gentle, pure and tender
Such shall be my Angel name
It has thrilled my spirit often,
In the holiest Of my dreams;
But its beauty fingers with me,
Only like the morning beams;
Weary Of the jarriag discerd
Which the lips of mortals frame,
When shall L, with joy and rapture,
Answer to ny Angel name
