cB" HONE is emphatcally the poor mans
paradise. The rich, with their many resources,
too often live away from the hearthstone, in
heart, if not in person; but to the virtuous
poor, domestic ties are the only legitimate and
positive sources of happiness short Of that holI'
er heaven which is the souls home.

THE Type BArTERY.-Mr. Fry, of the New
York press. being called on to reply to toast
in honor of the craft, at the late celebration of
the Typographical Society, made very excel
lent speech-the speech Of the evening, deci-
dedIy-in the course OF which he said:
There are various kinds Of weapons. We
have Paixhan guns, Mimic rifles, and Slarpe's
rifles but there is one thing that shoots further
than all these 1t is the shot from the type
foundry. 1t goes around the world; it circles
cities and threads plains; it wends its way
through woods; it raltles in the rigging of the
shin on the most distant seas; it is never spent
when aimed high, but ricochets, striking with
fresh force every form Of evil, dshonor and
oppression. In firing, then, let your aim always
be true, and remember that 10 hit the mark, aim
little above it.
Very good advice. 1t should be, as it is, gen.
erally followed. But, there are Hessiuns Of the
press, who disgrace its high calling in this, and
every other civilized land-fellows who "left
their country for their countrys good"-who
possess ten times more brass than brains-who
are destitute of courage, decency OF principle
and who are ready 10 prostitute themselves on
all occasions for consideration. Such chaps
are unworthy the kicks and cowhides they fire.
qucntly receive.
But there is one consolation: the scurr!ies,
infamics and atrocities: of the few cannot de-
grade the many and SO the press keeps or i'll
the fulflment of its high and honorable mission,
the respectable portion of it receiving the ap..
plausc and enjoying the confidence OF all good
and Iawabiding citizens

A SOLDIERS HoYoR-In m old newspaper
printed soon after the close OF the revolution,
we find the following singular statement: Du-
ring the march of detachment Of the American
army, through New Jersey, in the late war,
silver spoon was found missing in house where
a party of troops had bilIeled. Suspicion pitch:
ed on a soldier, who was seen to. have entered
the apartment where the spoons were kept, and
he was accused Of the theft
"May never meet salvation" exclaimed the
soldier. "mav be sunk into the endless regions
of per1ition, if have seen, heard of, or taken
your spoon" ;. !,
"But no one else could have taken it" replied
the host
"The soldier again went through the man.
ual" of his attestations of Innocence, and I'M
precautions against himself it he was guilty. The
landlord looked astonshed, and being an honest
man, was obliged 10 believe the soldier. But
lust on the point to leave the examlnatlon-hc
takng hold of the soldiers coat and looking him
in the fare-sad: Now say upon your honor,
that you have not got my spoon, and Shall be
satisfied"
"Upon nv honor" said The soldier to himself,
after thinking few minutes. "Upon my honor :!
poh! blast you!" he cried, pulling the spoon
from his pocket, and giving it to its owner
" Blast your spoon-take your spoon, ana be
d-dr
The host started, surprised. and while lament.
ing that the great principles of religion and
morality should have less weight in the mind OF
an intelligent being, than the principles of what
he conceived to be mere sound, the soldier
swung his knapsack, joined the corps and march

SUBLIME AND FUSNY.-The editer of The San

not altogether a pleasant reflection that scIen-
