DIRT THR0WERs.

Some years ago the Journal of Commerce
threatened that if clergymen meddled with
this question their black coats nouh be rolled
in The dirt IN. Y. Independent.
If ever prediction was verified, that has
been. OF course political parson can't see
his own coat, on his own back, but other
people can !; and they see the dirt ON it, half
an inch thick.-Journal Of Commerce.
"Then they hied them to another
place called Mount Innocence, and there
they saw a man clothed all in white -
and two men, Prejudice and Ill-will,
continually casting dirt upon him. Now
behold, the dirt, whatsoever they cast at
him, would in little time fall off again,
and his garment would be as clean as if
no dirt had been cast thereat.
Then aaid the Pilgrim, what means
this?' The shepherds answered, This
is to show the innocency of his life
Now such as throw dirt at him are such
as hate his well-doirg, but as you see,
the dirt will not stick upon his clothes !;
so it will be with him who lives inno-
Gently in the world !; whoever they be
that would make such men dirty, they
labor in vain for God, by that little
time is spent, will cause that their in
nocency shall break forth as the light,
and their righteousness as the noon-day."

" DON'T STAY LONG"

1t is rarely. indeed, that VIC have read
any thing more truthfully pathetic than
the subjoined waif. which we fnd foa,
ing among our exchanges. Would tina,
every husba nd in the land might read
and profit by IL:
"Don't stay long. husband said a
young wife tendcrly one evening. as her
husband was preparing to go out. The
words themselves were insignificant. but
the look OF melting fondness with which
they were accompanied, spoke volumes.
1t told all the whole vast depths of q
woman's love-of her grief when the
light of his smile, the source of all her
joy bcamcd not brightly upon her.
"Don't stay long. husband" and I
fancicd saw the loving, gentle wife sit
ting alone. anxiously counting the mo-
ments of her husbands absence, every
few moments running to the door to see
if he was in sight. and finding that he
was not, thought could hear her ex-
in disappointed tones, mot
yet"
Don't stay long. husband" and /
again thought I could see the young wife
rocking nervously in the great arm chair.
weeping as though her heart would
break, as her thoughtless lord and
master" prolonged his stay to weari-
some length of time.
o, you that have wives to say-"Don':
stay long" when you go forth, think of
them kindly when you are mingling in
the busy hive of life, and try. just lit
tie, to make their homes and hearts hap
py. for they are gems too seldom replace
ed. You cannot find amid the pleasures
Of the world, the peace and joy that
quiet home blessed with such woman
presence will afford.
Don't stay long, husband and the
young wifc's look seemed TO say, q" for
here in your own sweet home is a low
ing heart, whose music is hushed when
you are absent; here is a soft breast for
you to lay your head upon, and here are
pure lips unsoiled by sin. that will pay
you with kisses for coming back soon."

HONOR TO THE PLOW.

Though clouds o'ercast our native sky,
And seem to dim the sun,
We will not down in languor lie,
Or deem the day is done.
The rural arts we loved before,
No less we'll cherish now,
And crown the banquet as Of yore.
With honor to the Plow.
In those far fields. where peaceful spoil
To faith and hope are given.
Well seek the prize with honest toll.
And leave the rest to Heaven.
Wen grid US to our work like men
Who own holy vow,
And if in joy we meet again,
Give honor to the PlOw.
Let us arraycd IN magic power.
With labor hand in hand,
Go forth, and now, in perils hour,
Sustain a sinking land.
Let never sloth unnerve the arm.
Orfear, the spirit COW,
These words alone should work . charm -
All honor o the Pl0w.
The heath redress. the meadows drain.
The latent swamp explore,
And Ger the long expecting plain
Diffuse the quick ming store.
Then fearless urge the furrow deep
Up the mountains brow,
And when the rich results you reap.
Give honor to the Plow.
So beauty still DER pastures green.
And nodding fields shall roam.
And still behind the rustic screen
Shall virtue find home;
And while their bower the muses. build
Beneath the neighboring bough,
Shall many graceful verse be flled
With honor to the PlOw.

country with force derivable alone from
patriotic feeling, and he expresses his
opinions of the candidates with honest

of honor, unless this principle is so fully
matured in him that it would no more
enter his mind to act dishonorably, than
it would to jump into well, OR crawl
in place of walking; so no individual is
man or woman in honesty, or truth,
or justice, or kindness, or any other vir-
tue, unless it is as natural for either to
practice them as it is to make steps in
walking, or to move the tongue in speak
ing. When person has to reason and
fight with himself, whether he shall be
honest in case where he has the oppor-
tunity to act the rogue, put him down as
something of savage yet in that par
ticular.

position, rich or poor, educated or igno-
rant, can have the meanness to treat
another incivility or unkindness, put
him or her down as low bred semi saw

he or she may be loaded down with Jew
ely, whalebone, titles and gold. He
only deserves the name ofman or gentle
man, who has lifted his soul above the
filth of scltlshness, ferocity and mean
ness, into the pure atmosphere Of gener-
Gus impulses, from whose nature flows
every virtue, fresh and sparkling as the
springs gush from the green mountains

the handmade of honor, Justice and hui

demand the sacrifice.
There were two ages of high strung
virtues. One is called the age of hero
ism, and the great Homer sings it in his
immortal iliad. 1t must be this the
chief glory Of man is war. Therefore
be lion, pocket no insult or even a
harm, but avenge it any way you can.
The other is called the age of knighthood
when gallantry was the code of morali-
ty. 1t meant, be fighter; only give
your antagonist notice then rush upon
him and demolish him with any ferocity
you please. Those were ages of bully
ism. The modern civilization is now
a thousand years old, but still there is
enough barbarism among those nations
that call themselves refined. Atlas.
