This time the Englishman's answer was
more wicked and unfeeling than had been
Jabe's, for he not only swore terribly, but he
even wished every Yankee in Christendom
was in the immediate kingdom of that horned
and hoofed individual who is said to reign
somewhere beneath the earth.

everything else. II we cultivate buov,nc,,
and cheerfulness, it does not need that We
should also adopt buffoonery, and allow quips
and quirks to usurp the place Of vigilance and
industry. Mirthfulness will be found 10 be 4
good investment, or in plain terms il would
pay.
Nowhere else is cheerfulness more benif-
cent than in the family, driving off the mists Of
indifference, and the ascidity which turns
wine into vinegar. 1t is the best eve-salvei
where tears have injured the vision. Gods
angels hardly find the way to the doors of
men, through the clouds of anxiety with which
they have surrounded themselves, and SO thew
lose many visits but they love to come to the
homes fmirh, and coming often they bear
the heavier loads
There are great defects in religion which
can be remedied BY ntirthfulness better than
by any other means. Some regard the tying
up Of the feelings as the chief function of life.

than he was he should be more, and the diff

tue stale; it lacks sparkle and life !; it wants
carbonic acid gas. The leaven Of cheerful
ness would work in such souls like the sum

seclusion and want Of venturesomeness in.
our piety which is almost equivalent to want
of faith. There is no true humility unless a
man knows how to trust in something in itself.
Mans piety is like garden hedged about and
shut in from temptations until they are smooth
cred. Sobriety is so perpendicular a wall
that few can climb and look over to see how
happy the heart is on the other side. Men are
apt to look upon religion as upon sombre
fortress, bristling with guns, and they think
the way 10 become religious is to enlist and
join the garrison. Our religious feelings are
touched with awe and veneration rather than
by love. We regard the ministers as gentle
men in black, whose professional duties are
correspondingly sombre. The only book that
inculcates cheerfulness in religious matters is
that best of all books-the Bible.

What Constitutes Riches.

To be rich, says MIR. Marcy, our present Sec-
retary Of State, requires ouly a satisfactory
condition of the mind. One man may be rich
| with hundred dollars, while another in the
possession of millions may think himself poor
and as the necessities of life are enjoyed by
each il is evident the man who is the best sat
isfied with his possessions is the richer
To illustrate this idea he relates the follow
ing anecdote:
While was governor Of the Stale Of New
York, was called upon one morning at my
Office by rough specimen of backwoodsman
who stalked in and commenced conversation
by inquiring 'if this was Mr.. Marcy
. / replied that was my name.'
Bill Marcy . said he.
: | nodded assent
Used to live in Southport, didn't yet
Il answered in the affirmative, and began TO
feel little curious to know who my visitor
was, and what he was driving at
That's what told EN- cried the back
wOodsman, bringing his hand down on his thigh
with tremendous force told EN- you was
the same old Bill Marcy who used to live in
Southport, but they wouldn't believe it and
| promised the next time | came 10 Albany to
come and see you and find out for sartin.-
Why, you know me, don't you. Bill
I didn't exactly like to ignore his acquaint-
ance altogether, but for the life Of me couldn't
recollect ever having seen him before, and SO
replied that he had familiar countenance. but
that was not able 70 call him BY name
My name is Jack Smith, answered the
backwoodsman, and we nsed to go TO school
together thirty years ago in the little red school
house in old Southport. Well, times has
changed since then, and you have become a
great man and got rich, | suppose =
l shook my head, and was going to contra
dict that impression when he broke in
'Oh, yes you are; know you are rich no
use denying il. You was Controller fcr-for
long time. and the next we heard OF you you
were Governor. You must have made heap

! thanked him for his good wishes and
opinion, but Told him that political life did not
