FAMOUS BooKs.-It would seem
that precisely those books which have
made the greatest noise in the world,
and out of which publishers have made
made most money, have nearly always
gone begging for publishers. Defoe' s
immortal Robinson Crusoe" ran the
gauntlet of the book trade of London,
and was at last taken up by publisher
who had no special reputation for saga
city. paradise Lost" was parted
with for the shabbiest triAe, though
millions of money have doubtless been
made on it since by the publishing in
terest. "Jane Eyre" the most notable
probably of modern fictions, was rescued
from neglectful and distrustful pub
fishers drawer by his wife; and this
book has made the name of Charlotte
Bronte household word wherever the
English language is spoken. Mrs.
Stoves "Uncle Toms Cabin" is also
indebted to publishers wife for being
SO quickly recognized, She having read it
in the National Era newspaper where it
drstappeared in weekly parts.-Spring-
field Republican.

THE NEwspApER.-Mr. Sidney Her
bert lately made the subjoined remarks
before an English audience. They will
apply here as well as in England:
"There is no question abroad or at
home, no question political, and very
few scientific, which is not admirably
discussed in the newspaper press of this
country. The articles which appear in
the newspapers, compressed into short
space, are the result of much reading
and of much thought; and we who have
not much time ON our hands-we are
all in this age pressed for time-get by
that means great results, and a vast
amount of thought elaborated into what
the Lancashire manufacturers would
call the finished articles Depend
upon it, the man who shuts his eyes to
the contemporaneous history of the
newspapers is man unfit to deal with
the practical wants of society.
We may annex to the above the opin-
ion Of the London Times, which we find
ready condensed to our hands
The London Times, in an able article
on the power of the Press, says that the
potency of the newspaper lies in the
fact that it is newspaper, and not a
sheet of tales and essays, like the French
journals. "The Public Press" saws
the Times, "has purchased its right to
express its opinions by the facilities
which it has given every man for form
ing his own" As to the favors which
the press can confer, the Times says !:
"What is the Red Eagle or the
Legion of Honor to a paragraph of
praise which is repeated in hundreds of
daily, weekly, and monthly sheets, and
makes some humble name household
word from Cornwall to Shetland. in
Toronto and Melbourne, in Calcutta and
Hong Kongp

MOUNTAIN PRoDUcTIvENEss.-Con-

MOUNTAIN PRODUCTIvENEss.-
trary to the nature of mountainous dis
tricts in the Atlantic States, the Sierra
Nevadas, even close to perpetual snow
drifts, are productive and susceptible of
profitable cultivation. Experiment has
shown that in the pine and fir woods,
usually considered sterile, vegetables
can be produced, but the work Of clear
ing land covered by trees of from three
to six feet in diameter, will protect the
forest from the plowshare, so long as the
little valleys and flats along the rivers
and creeks offer greater facilities to the
agriculturalist.
Between the divides and on benches,
at various elevations from the streams,
large flats are found watered by springs
which find their way off under ground
AS soon as the snow disappears, vegeta-
ton springs and grows with incredible
rapidity. Those places are claimed and
partially cultivated, hnt in very few in
stances, with any sort of system or care.
Still they produce abundantly, and peo-
pie get rich from half cultivating lit
tie spot which thousands of penniless
prospectors passed over, without thought
of its value.-Trimtty Journal.
The hydraulic press., 1858-12-25

The SU1c1DE.-The following brief
extract from the Trinity Journal con-
tains figure which is bold, startling,
and poetical:
"Thus, in bright, beautiful world,
in near neighborhood with hearts SYM
pathetic and yearning for companion
ship, like his own, many one grows
despondent, until in despair he lifts has
false key to the door phich Gods o,on
hand may open, and goes out to the
bewliderlng fields where suicides search
for rest"

DEATH OF AN AGED DwARF.-A
dwarf named Richebourg, who was only
sixty centimetres (234 inches) high,
has just died in the Rue du Four, St. Ger
main, Paris, aged 90. He was, when
young, in the service of the Duchess
dOrleans, mother Of King Louis Phil
ippe. After the first revolution broke
out he was employed to convey dispatch
es abroad, and for that purpose, was
dressed as baby, the dispatches being
concealed in his cap, and nurse being
made to carry him. For the last TWEEN
ty-five years he has lived in the Rue du
Four, and during all that time never
went out. He had a great repugnance
to strangers, and was alarmed when he
heard the voice of one; but in his own
family he was very lively and cheerful.
The Orleans family allowed him pen
sion of 5000 francs.

Mrs. Amelia Pinkney, one of the
most accomplished ladies of Annapolis,
Md, died on the 4th ult., in the 8Oth
year of her age. After her 10th year
she wrote fifteen hundred closely written
pages, full of the stories of her rich
mind and cultivated taste, solely for the
perusal and qualification of those who
cheered the last years of her bodily suf-
fering. When past her 10th year she
wrote in six weeks five hundred verses
of poetry, on the subject Of the Queens
Of England.

WOMEN AS JUDGES OF CHARACTER.
1t is more honorable to have the re-
CARDS of q few noble women than to be
popular among much greater number
of men Having in themselves the
qualities that command our love, they
are, for that reason, the better able to
appreciate the traits that deserve to in
spire it. The heart must be judged by
the heart, and men are too intellectual
in the processes by which they form
their regards.

GOD,s GIFTs.

God gave gift to Enrth "a child,
Weak, innocent, and undefiled,
Opened its ignorant eyes and smiled.
It lay 50 helpless 90 forlorn,
Earth took 1t coldly and in scorn,
Cursing the day when it was born.
She gave it first furnished name,
For heritage a tainted fame,
Then Graded it In want and shame.
All influence of Good or Right,
All ray of Gods most holy light,
She curtained closely from its sight.
Then turned her heart, her eyes away,
Ready to look again, the day
Its little feet began to stray.
In dens of guilt the baby played.
Where sin, and sin alone, was made
Tho law that all around obeyed.
With ready and obedient care,
He learnt the tasks they taught him there.
Black sin for lesson-oaths for PRAYER
Then earth arose, and. in her might,
To vindicate her injured right,
Thrust him in deeper depths Of night
Branding him with deeper brand
or shame he could not understand,
The felon outcast Of the land.
Jul bovo o git 10 EaItu - B Cn1lQ,
Weak. innocent, and undefiled,
Opened its ignorant eyes and smiled
And Earth received the gift, and cried
erjoy and triumph far and vide,
Till echo answered to her pride.
She blest the hour when first he came
To take the crown of pride and fame,
Wreathed through long ages for his nams
Then bent her utmost art and skill
To train the supple mind and will,
And guard it from breath of ILL
She strewed his morning path with flowers,
And Love, in tender dropping showers,
Nourished the blue and dawning hours.
She shed, in rainbow-hues of light,
A halo round the Good and Right
To tempt and charm the baby's sight,
And every step, of workior play,
was lit by some such dazzling ray,
Till morning frightened into day.
And then the world arose, and said: -
Letadded honors now be shed
On such noble heart and head
0 World! both gifts were pure and bright,
Holy and sacred in Gods sight:
God will judge them and thee Alright!

There are in the United States 4 POP
Masonic lodges, with a membership of
183, 1888. The number of Free Masons
in the United States is probably much
greater than this, as there are many to
be found everywhere who are not afilia-
ted with any lodge. The law of the
fraternity is said to be, "Once Mason
always Mason"

ESSAYS IN BRIEF.-The annexed pa
ragraphs are copied from the Atlantic
Monthly for December:
CHEERFULNEss.-Sullen and good,
morbid and wise, are impossible condi-
tions. The best test, both of man Is
wisdom and goodness, is his cheerful
ness. When one is not cheerful, be is
almost invariably stupid. A sad face
seldom gets into much credit with the
world, and rarely deserves to. Sorrow
says old Montaigne, lis base passion
The quarrel between Gray and me,
says Horace Walpole, AROSE from his
being too serious a companion What
right has any one to be too serious a
companion ?"
FUTURE LIFE.-Altogether too much
thought is given to the next world. One
world at time ought to be sufficient for
us. If we do our duty manfully in this,
much consideration of our relations to
that next world may be safely postponed
until we are in it.
MANHooD.-The question is not, the
number of facts man knows, but how
much of fact he is himself.
NEwsPApERs.-The world is not
fairly represented by its newspapers.
Life is something better than they make
it out to be. They are mainly the rec
Ords of the crimes that curse and the
casualties that aflict it, the contests of
litigants and the strifes of politicians !;
but Of the sweet amenities of home and
social life they are and must be silent.
Not without reason has the poet fed
from the ''poet's corner"
MANNERS OF Recommendations
mers, from being deeply impressed with
the evils they seek to redress, and &C
lively engaged in warfare against
them, are apt to contract certain habit
of denunciation, extending to persons
and things at large, and by which their
character for amiability is injuriously af-
fected. This is particularly noticeable
in that portion of the press devoted to
Progress.
TRUTH-SEEKERs.-Hamlet, in the
ghost scene, is fine example of the
questioning spirit pursuing its inquiries
regardless of consequences. The appa-
rition which affrights and confounds his
companions only spurs his not less timid,
perhaps, but more speculative nature in
to following and plying it with ques-
tons. Only thus should Truth be fol-
lowed, with an interest great enough to
overmaster all fears as to whittier she
may lead and what she may disclose.
The hydraulic press., 1858-12-25

GALLANT PUNs.-A man was asked
what kind of girl he preferred for a
wife. He replied: "One that was not
aprodi-gal, but frugal and true gal
and one that suited his conju-gal state =
