woman came, and bid me in the name
of God to shun the fatal snare, and.
twining her arms around my neck,
while her eyes beamed with loves
deep inspiration, she poured oil upon
the troubled waters; told me of purer
hopes and higher aims, and in my ear
whispered golden word that has out
lived all sorrow.
"Leila, would you know the name
Of my first love! "TIs MY MoTHER.'

MORAL COURAGE.

Sidney Smith, in his work on moral
philosophy, speaks in this wise Of
what men lose for want of a little NOR
al courage or independence Of the
mind:
"A great deal of talent is lost in the
world for the want of moral courage.
Every day sends to the grave number
of obscure men who have only remain
ed in obscurity because their timidity
has prevented them from making a
first effort and who, if they could
have been induced to begin, would, in
all probability, have gone great lengths
in the career of fame. The fact is.
that to do anything in this world worth
doing, we must not stand back shiver-
ing, and thinking of the cold and dan
ger. but jump in and scramble through
as well as we can. 1t will not do to
be perpetualIy calculating tasks and
adjusting nice chances; it did very
well before the food, when man
could consult his friends upon an in
tended publication for one hundred
and fifty years, and then live to see it's
success aiterward, but at present a
man waits and doubts and hesitates,
and consults his brother and his un-
Gle, and particular friends, till, one
fine day, he finds that he is sixty years
old; and then he has lostso much time
in consulting his first cousin and par
ticuIar friends, that he has no more
time to follow their advice.

TEXT FOR YOUNG MEN.

A better subject for young mon to
discourse about, and to mediate upon
was never written than the following,
by Swift: "No man ever made an i'll
figure who understood his own tal-
ents, nor good one who mistooll
them" Young men do not fail in the
pursuits of life because they lack abil-
ity to succeed, half as often as from a
misdircction of talents. A right use
of moderate capacity will accom-
pIish more than wrong application
of the most brilliant qualifications
Study, therefore, yourselves. Aim to
find out the actual talents you possess,
and then endeavor to make the best
possible use of them. and you can
hardly come short of making a good
figure in the world, and what is more,
being one among those who live not in
vain.

Bank Of East Tennessee.

The suit of Johnson, of Nashville,
against this Bank, was not sustained
in Chancery Court recently in session
in this city, but no principle of law
was determined by the decision of the
chancellor, except that the suit was
not brounht against the proper parties
1t was an action to recover four or five
thousand dollars from the Directors,
as that amount of the issues of the
Bank, had been protested by the Bank,
since its failure, when presented for
payment.
We have suit pending in the
same court, for a much larger amount
bat our action is brought against the
Trustees of the Bank, who hold the
funds ofthe Bank, such as real estate,
and are disposing of it so as to afford
holders of large sums to realize some.
thing, while the poor, holding small
sums are to loose all. Those wishing
US to file their bills with ours, accord
ing to the terms we have heretofore
published, will send them on. within
the next three months. We promise
them to silt the matter to the bottom,
and have the mask torn off of this
whole concern.
In all the history of Banking in Ten
ncssce, there never was a Bank that
went to the wall before, whose off,
GERS and managers utterly refused te
make any showing Of its condition.
The press of this city has exercised
great forbcarance towards these Trus-
tees, believing that in due time they
would make a showing that would be
satisfactory to the public, and honora-
bic to themselves. But sixteen months
have passed by, and no showing is
made, and it is evident none is inten-
ded. Such contempt for the public
interest, and utter defiance to public
opinion, we have never met with be
fore But, we promise the public thai
a showing shall now be made, and
that the world SHALL have the goot
and bad, the foul and the fair, by the
time we are through with the concern

GARTERs.--A Correspondent Of the
Boston Transcript says;
We ask if it be possible that one
can destroy the proportions of a we'll
shaped leg by gartering the stocking
below the kncel Look at the statue
of a Venus, and in thought draw q
band or an elastic under the knee
would not the result be a dcformity1
But place the band above the knee,
and the harmony of the lines is not
destroyed it becomes an ornament.
The women at Athens and Rome, who
were famed for their taste and skill in
dress and knowledge of artistic beauty
wore the garter above the knee. But
not to occupy ourselves with them, let
us see how long it has been thus worn
with US. We have an authority I'M
this matter-the Duke de St. Simon
If he does not prove the garter to be
worn above the knee before the reign
Of the great king, he establishes at
least this fact--that the elegant and
fashionable women Of the time wore
it thus; for, in his memoirs, alluding
to Mile de Brenille, whose inelcgant
manner caused much ridcule and
gossip, he says, in his language, then
so popular, "she was one Of those COM
mon, vulgar persons who garter below
the knee"

A CnALLENcE.-When Judge Thach-
er, many years ago, was member OF
Congress from Massa chusetts, he was
challenged to duel by Mr.. Blount,
member from North Carolina, for
words spoken in debate. The Judge,
on reading the message from Blount,
after adjusting his wig and revolution
airy hat, said to the bearer:
"Give my respectful compliments
to your master, and tell him he cannot
have a definite answer to his note to-
day. Let him be patient short time,
till can write to Portland and receive
an answer. | always consult my
wife on matters of Importance, well
knowing that she is a better judge of
family affairs than myself. If she
takes the choice of becoming a wild
ow or having her husband hanged for
murder, certainly will fight Mr..
Blount. Tell him not to be in a hur-
ry; it will not take more than three
weeks to receive her election"

He Never has Deceived Ne Yet.

He never has deceived me yet,
I've always found him true;
When he proves otherwise, lll heed
The story told by you.
For good intention, doubling not,
| thank you from my heart;
But till | find my lover false,
III never from him part.
Would sweet hearts give less heed to news
Which second hand they gain,
They would rot have so oft TO sigh,
Or think they love in vain.
Seeng's beeiv ing, and till
See him love DO wrong,
| give suspicion to the winds
What think you of my song.

EAT PLENTY OF FAT MEAT.-In late
number of the Scalpel, in an article
on Diet DR.. Dixon, in assuming the
position that "the use of oil would de-
crease the victims of consumption
ninetenths, and that is the whole Sc
cret ofthe use Of cold liver OIL" quotes
the following summary observations
on this subject made by DR.. Hooker:
l. Of all the persons between the
ages Of fifteen end twenty-five years,
more than one-fifth eat no fat meat.
2. Of persons at the age Of forty
five, all, excepting less than one in
fifty, habitually use fat meat.
3. Of persons who, between the
ages of fifteen and twenty-five, avoid
fat meat, few acquire an appetite
for it, and live to good old age. while
the greater portion die with phthisic
before thirty five.
4. Ofpersons dying with phthisic,
between the ages of twelve and forty
five, nine-tenths, at least, have never
used fat meat.
Most individuals who avoid fat
meat, also use little butter or oily
gravies, though many compensate for
this want, in part at least, by free
use of those articles, and also milk,
eggs, and various saccharine substan-
ces. But they constitute an imperfect
substitute for fat meat, without which,
sooner or later, the body is almost sure
to show the effect of deficient claro-
fication.

a PRETTY BIRD SONG.

There is little bird that sings
"Sweetheart!"
| know not what his name may bc,
| only know his notes please me,
As loud he sings-and thus sings he
Sweetheart"
I've heard him sing on soft spring days
"Sweetheart!"
And when the sky was dark above,
And wintry winds had stripped the grove,
He still poured forth the words OF love-
Sweetheart"
And, like that bird, my heart too sings
"Sweetheartm
When heaven is dark, bright and blue,
When trees are bare, or leaves are new,
1t thus sings on--and sings Of you
"Sweethe eart"
What need Of other ords than these
"SweetheartW
II | should sing whole year long,
My love would not be shown more strong
Than by this short and simple song
"Sweetheart!"

DYspEpsIA CURED BY MUsIC.-A cor
respondent of the Musical World says:
"About seven years ago, suffered as
severely as any one could do from in
digestion. | was monthly under our
own family doctor, and one Of the most
eminent surgeons in the town in which
| live; several months again under
two other medical men, besides trying
almost all kinds Of things that friends
recommended. | scarcely dared to
eat anything; and the most simple
drinks would rack me with pain. One
evening friend called and asked me
to go with her to a musical meeting
| told her | could not, as was in too
much pain to enjoy ever such good
singing. However, after much per-
suasion, went, and when there, was
induced to become a subscriber. Ev-
cry member of the society was sup
posed to be good reader of music;
and as knew nothing of it, except the
names Of the notes, commenced tax.
ing lessons in singing. After that, my
indigestion gradually left me. and in
a short time | was quite well of it,,
and have been ever since. | cannot
tell how it was it did NE so much
good, but | know it made me very
hungry-what had never been for
two years before; nor did ever in my
life enjoy my food so much before |
sang, as have since"

TO HER I LOVE.

IT'S sweet TO inhae the breath Of Spring
When fragrance rich the flowers bring;
'Tis sweet TO list the merry ring
Of the "songstcrs" as they sing
In harmony
Their cheerful glee--
But sweeter far than this to me,
To know that | am lov'd by thee.
IT'S sweet to know you have friend
That oft a hcl ping hand will lend,
And ever until li(e's end
Will to all your wants attend
When misery
Falls heavily
But sweoter far than this to me,
To know that. i am lov'd by thee.
Though by the world were forgot
And former friends may love me not,
Happy then would be my lot
With but this one cheering thought
My heart TO free
From agony:
For sweeter far than all TO me
TO know that | am lov'd by thee.
CONSTANT.
