The New.York Observer says, the
officers and crew of the North Star,
Arctic ship, now in Sheerness, have
suffered the privation Of Two winters Of
six months each. total darkness, with
the thermometer So deg below The ffoe z.
ing point. They have been without a
single human being to associate with,
except their own little company for a
period Of two years and half. During
the whole period the officers and crew
ceased to use razor, merely scissors
cutting and trimming their faces and
heads-and there has not been one soli'
tary case Of liberated sore throa
among them. Until within a week, ths
razor was only known by nome in tht
ship, and strange to say. inmediatel,
after the faces lost their warm clothing
several found that the cold took effect or

has been lost from sickness.

Have an Aim in Life.

EVERY man, rich Or poor, ought to
have some absorbing purpose, some &C.
tive enga cement, TO which his main en-.
ergies are devoted. Not enjoyment, but
duty, daily duty, must be the aim of
each life. No man has a right 10 live
upon this fair earth, to breath its air, to
consume its food to enjoy its many beau.
ties, and produce nothing in return. He
has no right to enjoy the blessings Of
civilization, Of society, and Of civil
liberty, without contributing earnest and
self denying labor Of head or heart, or
hand to the welfare Of msnkind. Ger.
tsinly no man can be truly moral who
makes qualification. as distinct from
selfdenying exertion, the great object Of
life, as he puts pleasure exactly in the
place Of duty.
This principle Of life admitted, how.
ever manifested, will produce daily de
terioration ofcharacter. until thoroughly
abandoned. Every bodily appetite, every
mental fancy, every momentary fashion,
will clamor till INDUCED. The body
will be pampered, appetite will lead to
gluttony, wine to drunkenness, luxury to
every evil indulgence, while the mind.
excited only by novelties, and enfeebled
by the lack OF continual exerlion, sinks
into utter vapidity and uselsssness.-
There is more hope Of the idler. Power.
ty will sometimes scourge the vice ol
idlensss out Of a man. Butth love ol
q. higher and better mode Of life, II
once tasted, 10 the chief hope.

far as regards profession. man should

Almost every individual Of the human

when It is brought into requisitien and
applied to some exclusive object, can.
not fail TO be attended with . commen.

"Well,. you see," said he, in reply 10
another question, "it was about twenty

my brother was o medical student, that
we both fancied we had wondeful tai.

"You mustn't study too hard, boys"

"Yes, SIR" said | gravely. .

And Betsy gave my brother look ol
withering condemnation.
My mother IVES acute enough to see
that something unusual was going on in
our "study," and, telling Betsy she would
inquire into it, she dismissed her for the
present.
That was the end of our musical prac.

Children, wearied at their plays
For the stars Of night are peeplng,
And the sun hath sunk away.
As the dew upon the blossoms
Bows them on their tender stem,
So, as peaceful are their bosonns--
Calmly Sleep hath conquered them.
They are sleeping. Who are sleeping'
Captives, In their gloomy cells.
Yet sweet dreams are DER them creeping,
With their many colored spells.
All they love-again they clasp them;
Feel again their long lost Joys;
But the haste with which they grasp them,
Every fairy form destroys.

Misers, by their boarded gold;
And IN fancy now are heaping
Gems and pearls Of price untold.
Golden chains their limbs cucumber;
Diamonds seem before them strewn,
But they waken from their slnmber,
And the splendid dream is flown!
They are sleeping. Who are sleepingi

Anxious friends are fondly keeping
Vigils by the Sleeper's bed.

Close for very weakness now.
And that short relief from sorrow,
