{ CHAPTER on "Gumption. !"

The word "gumption," derived from
the old Saxon 'sgymene or "gyman," to
observe OF be careful, is not generally
found in our dictionaries, though OF com
paratively common use. Lest some
doubts as to its Specification should pre-
vail, an exchange has volunteered an il
lustration Of its meaning. He says
When farmer pays taxes on five hun.
dred acres Of untitled and hn(enced land
covered with blackberry bushes, when hi
might derive more profit from a half
dozen properly cultivated, he is not har
dened with much"gumption."
!, When young man just setting up ir
business, keeps horse and carriage a
an expense Of two dollars per day, ant
fails in six months. when he might walk
for nothing. and continue his business il
safety, you may be assured that he lack
"gumption."
The person who deals Justly; love
mercy. walks humbly, and pays for hi
newspaper, is the one, above all other
in this wsrld, who exhibits the larges
share of "gumption."

DO SOMETHING (!

lF we were asked in what consists the
chief happiness Of the civilized man
over the savage, we would say in the oc.
cupalion Of mind and body-ihe con.
slant employment which is the condition
on which men live in society. "Thcre
is" says CARLYLE, "a perennial noble.
ness and even sacredncss in work.
Nothing else can elevate manhood-say
what you will. In idleness nobody ever
thrives, and nobody can. In business.
politics, literature, religion, We must
1cork, il we would ever BE anything, or
DO anything.
Can there be any object moro con.
lemplble than what, in the expressive
phrase of some parts Of our country, is
called do less man 4? The word is in.
elcgant--so is the thing which the word
describes. A man without settled aim
or object-a mere human vegetable, alb
sorbing nourishment, and converting il,
into chyle. bone and muscle, for no 9th.
er purpose than to furnish frame for
tailors to hang clothes on-what is he
good for? A fat pig is good when dead,
and the lazier and falter the pig, the bet
ter the pork; but lazy man is good for
nolhing-dead or alive.

hand and whatever you do, do WE'LL
Half work is the bar TO all progress.-
There is not human being in this great
nation, or in any other, who may not
benefit his country by the industrious
pursuit of an honest calling. And there
is none who cannot find something TO
do, If he will only undertake it.
"Blessed is he," says Carlyle, ",1ho
has found his work let him ask no 9th
or blessedness: labor is li(e." Undoubt.
edIy. And there is lifo in nothing else
But activity is not always labcr. Some
manage to be ever on the move and pro.
duce no results. They make great
deal Of dust, but no real progress. We
say Some--lhere are many-more than
the world suspects, more than are con-
scous of their busy idleness. Find youl
vocation and labor in it i; for labor is
life. Wncn we say .Gnd, we do not mean
lose time in looking, but do something
And never think that what you have lc

only be reaced by single step at a time
Aim high, and neglect nothing, and in
that way every step you take will count

D| A MAN known as Steeple Jack
ascended to the top Of the tower Of Hud'
dersfcld church, England, height o.
one hundred and twenty feet, and com
mcnced farther ascent Of one Of the
pinnicles, which is fifteen or sixteen feel
from the fatroof Of the tower, with nc
other assistance than his hands and feet
Having reached the point, he lay with
his stomach on the top Of the pinnacle
and went through the semblance Of swim

witnessed the daring exploit. In few
minutes he descended in the same man

pa AT Boulogne, during the recep.

pressed with such force against the sol.

THE PRICE OF SUCCESS.

EFFORT is the price OF success IN ev.
cry department Of human action. From
tho attainment of rlIdimental knowledge,
to the salvation Of the soul, euery step
in our progress is made By undaunted
toll. The boy drones over his book, the
slave to listIess laziness, and thereby Sc.
cures to himself place at the foot Of
society. The Christian who, like Bun
VANS Tmorous and Mistrust, flies at
the approach of lions, is undone. The
man who shrnks from difficulty in his
business or profession, who refuses TO
climb because the rocks arc sharp and
the way steep, must make up his mind
to slide back into the shadows below,
while others use him as stepping. stone
10 their own rising. For this such is
the constitution of society-there is no
help. The poet wrote truly, who said !:
"Thou must either soar or stoop,
Fall or triumph, stand or stop:
Tho,, must either serve or govern
Must be slave or must be sovereign;
Must, IN fine, be block or wedge,
Must be anvil or siedge."
10 snare CU an aHdOteHt "P'H, W
stir cne's SELF to e1ertion, reach cor
stantly up,oard, to struggle for firm
foothoa on the most slippery places, to
vrestle manfally escn ,chen pr,ncipal
ities and poa1ers are our own foe !; TO re-
fuse submission To any coils, hoaoeDe,
Crowning. are conditions zoe must either
| fulfil or sink to iHlenesS-perchance tt
ruin. Therefore, with BRAVE HEART
and an unconquerable spirit, every mar
should address himself to the work o
the day; striving with pure views an'
religious trust for an increase Of his tai
ent, and for victory which will enabl'
him to stand unabashed at the last day
He, who thus strives, need fear no fail
ure. His triumph, though delayed for
time, shall come at last.-[T. Ritchey

AGE.

BUT few men die Of old age. Almost
all die Of disappointment, passion, men,
tai or bodily toll or accident. The pas.
sions kill men sometimes even suddenly.
The common expression, (" choked with
passion" has little exaggeration in it ;
for even though not suddenly fatal.
strong passions shorten life. Strong bo.
died men often die young-weak men
live longer than the strong, for the strong
use their strength and the weak have
none to use. The latter take care OF
themselves and the former do not. AS it
is with the body, SO it is with the mind
and temper. The strong are apt TO break
down, or like a candle 10 run; the weak
burn out. The inferior animals, which
live in general regular aud temperate
lives have generally their prescribed term
OF years. The horse lives twenty-five
years; the OK fifteen or twenty; the lion
about twenty; the dog ten or twelve; the
rabbit eight; the suinea.pig six or seven
years. These numbers all bear simi.
lar proportion 10 the time the animal
takes to grow Its full size.
When the cartilaginous part Of the
bone becomes ossified, the bonos cease
to grow. This takes place in men at
abou, twenty years on the average; in
the camel at eight; in the horse at five
in the OK at four; in the lion at four; in
the dog at two; in the cat at eighteen
m Smiths; in the rabbit at twelve months; in
the guinea pig at seven. Five or six oI
these numbers give the term Of life; five
is pretty near the average; some ami
mails greatly exceed it. But man, Of all
the animals, is one that seldom comes
up to his average. He ought 10 live o
hundred years according to his physiolo.
gical law, COR five times twenty are hun
dred; but instead ofthat, he scarce reach.
es four times his growing period; whilst
the dog reaches six times; and the rabbi
even eight times the standard Of mea'
surement. The reason is obvious-mar
is not only the most irregular and the
most Incorporate, but the most laboriou:
and hard worked of all animals. He il
also the most irritable Of all animals
and there is reason to believe, though we
crnnot tell what an animal scarcely
feels, man cherishes wrath to keep i
warm, and consumes himself with thu
fire Of his own secret refections.-Black
