ambition of display for the sake of moderate
success, an easy digestion and sound sleep.
He might learn also to trace his misfortune
to their real source, instead of charging
them on banks; for, happily, man may
govern his own affairs successfully, in spite
of the faults of their administration.

THE BRAyEsT MAN AT WATERLoo,-
\ bcqucst similar to the Jackson Gold
Snuff Box was once made in England by
a gentleman, who left a sword, to be given
to the "bravest man at Waterloo" 1t was
referred to the Duke of Wellington to de-
eide to whom the sword should be given
The Duke would not say who was the bra
rest where all were Gaare, but said that the
mon who were the most severely tried on
that memorable day were those who defend
ed the position of the chateau Hougou-
mont, and that inquiry should be made re-
garding those who fought at that point
This was done, and the award was finally
made to a Britls! sergeant, who, at a crit
ical moment, w.,n the French had mex
pectedly forced open the gate of the chateau
and were about to enter, rushed forward,
and, by the exertion of great personal
strength and determination, succeeded alone
in shutting the gate in the face of the
French troops, and holding it till his com
rades came to his assistanco,--Neo Yorh
Post.

Girls that have grown to be misses;
Girls that liked to be kissed, aud
Liked to give kisses.
Kisscs-well | remember them;
Those in the corner were 1cctest;
Sweet were those ION the sly" those in the
Dark were the sweetest.
Anna was tender aud itle;
To WOO was almost to win her
Her lips were as good as ripe peaches
And milk for dinner.
Nell was Girt, and coq,ieuish;
'Twas-catch me, and kiss if you can sir;
Could catch both--nh wasn't |

Cooks her own dinners. So.

Only One Page OF a Ledger.
The expcrienc2of our money market for
the last fortnight has;bcon severe enough
to burn in some usehilcssons on tie Nom
ory; and yet, Judging from the past, these
will probably be forgotten as soon as we
are once more out of the breakers, 1t is
well, therefore, while our calamities are
sore upon us, that we should follow the
advice of Captain Cutie, and make notes
of them IF our merchants should devote
a single page Of the ledger to the posting
up of the errors and burdens of which they
are now so sensible, they might find it at
some future day to be the most profitable
account in the whole alphabet.
