LOOK ON YOUR OWN PLANE

LHH"HN .-. IL
Forty years have rolled away since It occurred
to me that vol written books for children had a
nicer adaptation to the wants Of adults, than those
which were served up for their especial p%crusal.
There may be two reasons why this is 80. 10
tho first place, us a general fact, those who write
have minds developed beyond that Of tho avarnge
OF readers and having besides, some pride of au-
thority thor style is not familiar however i'm,
portant the subject, anl however logically treated,
it cannot be appreciated
Secondly thoy address themselves to beings
who have had thoir training, formed their opinions,
and organized their habits in surroundings far
from iaultlcss. Their own training Gts them for
accommodating this class.
Those who are qualified to wiito for children
what pity their number ID so small, are in very
different circumstances. Their readers are sup
posed o.bc ignorant, truth seeking, unso2histi-
Gated beings.
The foregoing wal suggested to the writer, who
30 longer young, had Just risen from u porusal Of
CLONE Scenes, a Family Story" by Amanda Yves
ton. The emotions felt during the reading, where
such as he courts aud the impressions made, he
hopes will not be evancscont. llc is free to recon-
mend to the readers of the Bugle TO give an early
leisure hour to II thoughtful perusal of tho little
volume, and days afterwards nsk themselves ii II

Except that Mrs. Melroso is u littlo too wise and
good, and II rather too skillful educator for the
nineteenth century, there is scarcely my oxasora
ton in it. 1t has neat drapery, that's all.
Hero is a specimen to which every truo aboli.
ZIONIST will give a hearty Amen.
Mr.. Melrose vas %sorrowGully poudcring a truth
which his infdol, moral n~eigllbor urged upon him
when laboring to convince him Of the right faith,
namely, that there were those Of high standing in
church, who would not compare well with Others
outside of its pale. When Mrs. Molroso very
promptly said such members should be excluded
from a church protesting to be antislayory. Her
husband asked earnestly "but what could We do
without Elwood? 1t is just as Jarvis said, the
church could not live without him."
"Lct it die then" said the wife oncrgetically."
"But it would not die sit would would live rs il
never has done. Oh! if our church members had
only independence enough to speak the truth-on-
ly selfrcliancc enough to dare 10 try to stand alone
only faith enough in an oycrruling Providence
to do right, ana leave consequences, this would
not DO SO. We might be prosperous, ministers
salaries might be less--but the blessings of God
would rest ON it, us it never yet has DONE"

KILLING AN ELEPHANT.

On Saturday morning, when about five miles
from Camden, the elephant belonging to Bailey y
Co.'s Circus Company became vicious, and killed. q
horse which happened to DO near him. Fearing
that he might reach tho other horses and the cages
containing the animals, the first care of the attend
ants was to destroy the bridge, so as to cut OF his
approach to them. Mr.. George West, who,it seems,
was accustomed to tho management and DISPOSE
ton OF the elephant, did not fear him in the least,
and Judging by his actions that he was already
subducd, designed furnishing him, and thought it
unnecessary to secure him for that purpose; but
upon his approach thoi elephant struck him with
his tusks, killing him intantly, and then shook him
violently with his trunk. This was witnessed by
most of the members of tho company, but they
were of course unable to render the least assis-
lance. Mr.. Bailey, one of the proprietors, know
ing that it would be dangerous to keep an animal
so unruly, and fearing the consequence to either
the company or to visitors Of the exhibition, dc
termincd to destroy him. Tho DeKalb Rifle
Corps of Camden, commanded by Capt. Vile
pigue, with n number of citizens, came to til,
ground and opened a brisk fire upon him, 500,
putting out his eyes. By evening it is supposed
some one hundred and fifty balls had been pu
into him, but with scarcely any effect beyon'
binding him. On Monday morning the fro wa

TIE DoMINIoNs OF THE CZAR.-Although it is
the boast of Great Britain that upon her domin-
ions the sun never sets, yet we suspect that the
idea is rather a conceited abstraction. Russia is
one and continuous, from KamtSchatka to Warsaw
from Archangel to Sebastopol. The Russian
Car is absolute master-not in any fgurative
sense, but in rs complete a sense rs one immortal
being can be master of another-of some fourteen
parts (tho exact proportion matters little) of the
whole human race. What was Alexander Of Ma
cedon to this? He merely over-ran part of the
world. and frightened it into obedience during his
life-time; the Russian Car is the ono soul that an
mates the great mammoth body of this vast en-
pire; and what his name is seems to matter little
Peter, Paul, Alexander, Nicholas; no himself, ut
an incarnate idea, is indcstructible.- Blackpood.

by RALPH WALDO EMERSON

There is no architect
Can build as the Muse can:
She is skilllul to select
Materials for her plan;
Slow and warily to choose
Raftcrs of immortal Pine,
Or cedar incorruptiblo,
Worthy her design.
She threads dark Alpine forests,
Or valleys by the sea,
In many lands with painful steps,
Ere she can find n tree.
Sho ransacks mines and lodges,
And quarrios cvery rock,
10 hcw the famous adamant,
For each eternal block.
She lays her beams in music,
In music every one,
To the cadence of the whirling world
Which dances round the sun.
That SO they shall not be displaced
BY lapscs or by war
But for tho love of happy souls
Outliyo the newest stars.

Too many mon rely on prejudice, and partizans
use it as their thunder. Pin u word upon n man
snd you trip him up. But common sense and hon
csty are rising above this infamous action. 1t
should 30 put down everywhere. Thoro is, how
ever, truth in what tho Now York Times says be-
low p
To deal with an cpithot is the shortest form Of
political logic. Cali 1dolaionist tho man who sets
his face with a certain resolutcness of energy
against the aggrcssions of slavery; call fanatic the
earnest advocate of any great truth or opponent Of
any great error; pronounce enthusiasts all men of
strong and hopeful convictions, and you have
achieved a surer victory than all the sylogisms of
Aristotle could afford you. 1t is u short way with
all sorts of disscnters. They may disprove your
facts, expose your fallacies, and rofute your ar-
gument; but by the wcllchosen and oft-repeated
opithot, as by a ~tailsman, all the glory of the con-
test remains your own. Tho recipe is no secret
or we might conceal it for private uses. 1t is in
daily practice. 1t operates like an opiate on all
the otherwise decided movements of tho day. 1t
brushes enterprise, condemns tho earnest and pat
riotic to obscurity, and leaves the stage of politics
for knaves and fools, the Punches and Judics of
routine, to caper upon. The trick is especially
well understood by tho South and its Northern re-
Electors; it frightons tho timid into acquicsccncc
with Kansas and similar outragcs, which their
Judgements cannot avoid condcmning.

A CAUTION no FATHERS.

A reverend divine Of this vicinity found himself
IN rather an awkward fix the othor day. lilo aud
a lay iriond were riding along QUO of tue inc bca-
ches near Swanscott, when, tempted by tho retire
ment of the place and the excellent chance for
bathing, having their bathing clothes with them,
they stopped and prepared themselves for the
water. Trusting to the quiet habits Of THEN horse
they placed their clothing in the carriage, and
leaving all on the beach, made their way into the
surf. They had hardly time to congratulate Thorn
selves on their fine improviscd bath, when to their
utter condemnation their quiet horse was seen
making off with their clothing; and what was
worst Of all, going directly toward tho village!-
there was no help at hand, and there was nothing
for them to do But for one of them to run for the
horse. This the lay brother did with a will; and
after u long siern-chaso of about n milo, Just bo-
fore tho village was reached, overlook tho runa-
way horse, and ~joyfully turned his hoad toward
tho beach again, to relieve tho poor divine from
his watcry imprisonment, lilo was found cover
ing under the water, chilled with his prolonged
bath, and in a state of delightful uncertainty how
he should ever get into his clerical clothes again
The return Of his iriond with tho whcrowithal tc
clothc him was most joyfully hailed; aud we have
no doubt our clerical friend adopted on tho spot
