Aims n Life.

Young man are the aims of thy life such
as these? Dost thou improve thy hours OF
leisure, such as occur in the intervals of Ia
Dor and business, in reading, in study, in med-
~itation, in profitable conversation If SO,
though art acting wisely for thou wilt thus
lay up for thyself a portion that will stay by
thee in every trial and conflict incident upon
life's pilgrimage. Not so, however, with
that young man who finds his chief and al
most only pleasure in the gratifying oil his
appctites and passions. A dark future
awaits him. While the former is at home
evenings with his books, the latter is abroad
with his convivial companions, wasting his
time and money. and by his vicious practices
and sensual indulgences is enfeebllng both
body and mind. In this way his character
is corrupted and destroyed, though he may
for a while keep up his reputation, which,
however, will not last long after character,
its only sure foundation, is ruired. Beware,
then, young man, how thou spondest thy
time? As is thy childhood, youth, and ear
ly manhood, so VIII be thy maturer life.
Three terms being given, it is nowise diff
cult to find the fourth, or final result.
In a town in "Old Essex County" more
than half a century ago, were two lads at
tending the same school, the one a studious
youth, who took fast hold of instruction, dill
gently employing every opportunity to get
knowledge and wisdom and understanding.
he avoided those places of amusement where
the young waste 50 much time, and form hab-
its of dissipation-but lost thereby, that
charming and characteristic title, a " ladies
man." Not so, however. with his compan'
ion. He did not like application to his books,
did not find pleasure in their study. He was
ready to accept an invitation to attend a
dancing party, anywhere within twenty
miles. He was the idol of the young misses
was called by that sweet, charming. and
most endcaring of titles, "a ladies' man."
Time passed on, and the young men en-
gagged in the active scenes of life. The for.
mer was appointed Judge Of the Supreme
Court Of the United States. The latter Sc
cured TIE place of " street scavenger " in u
village in the aforesaid county. How true ii
is-whatsoever one soweth that shall he also
reap. This interesting sketch is veritable
history, and names could be given were il
necessary. 1t will serve just as well, how
ever, to illustrate the lives of multitudes Of
young men in and out of Essex county. Re-
member. yonng man, that understanding is q
well-spring of life, and he that hath it shall
be able to shun the evil that besetteth his
path of life. How much better is it to gel
wisdom than gold and understanding than

lientIy tor the hour to arrive, unG eagerly watched
the avenues of travel that lead INTO town for the
hosts of Democrats that We're TO be here. When

about to 60 home without seeing the farce en- cted,
we perceived four huge Democrats on parade on

tiently 10 hear the bell toll, after the procession
had entered; but. doubtless under the impression
that the building would rot hold any more, these
sage Falstaffs concluded not TO toll it. Finally
some one whispered on the street that the process
sion was in solemn council, deliberating upon the
affairs OF the nation, determining the right of
search. and such like; ihereupon, we with friend
elbowed our way in. Ye Gods, what a sight met
us WREN we crossed the threshold! Our eyes yet
grow dizzy and our heart faint when We recall
that vast concourse. There upon an elevated seat
sat the veteran County Recorder, with his faithful
staff IN his hand still farther in the background
sat the young and energetic Clerk Of the Court,
with his feet cooked higher than his head, while
above all lowered the majestic form of the Fal.

ARRIVAL OF THE NORTH STAR.
The Atlantic Telegraph Cable a failure

NEW YORK. July 90.
The steamship North Star has arrived
with dates TO the 7lh inst. The Atlantic
Telegraph Gable parted about a thousand
miles from the Irish coast. The Niagara
and Gorgon arrived back on the 9Th inst :,
having abandoned the enterprise. The Ag-
amemnon and Nalorous had not arrived on
the 9TH inst.
QUEEksTuwN, July 5th.-The Niagara
and Gurgon arrived this morning. Three at
tempts were made to lay the cable. The
Agamemnon and Vaurous are expected
hourly. The squadron experienced very
bad weather during the cruise; on the 18th
of June heavy gale sprang up, during
which the ships were separated, but all met
again at rendezvous. On the first attempt
about ten miles of cable were lost; On the
second about l20 miles, and on the 2Sth the
cable was again joined and about $50 miles
paid out when communication ceasing t. be
received the cable was parted and the Nj
agara and GOrgon proceeded to this place
much to their surpise, the Agamemnon and
Vaorous were not in before them, as they
had more than two hundred miles start
The AgamemnOn, it is reported, suffered
some damages in the gale after communica-
ton ceased. The Niagara. allowed swing
to the cable and in addition strains of four
tons were applied to the breaks; although
blowing fresh the cable held her an hour
when sudden pitch of the sea snapped the
Ca bic and the Niagara bore away for Queens
town.
Should nothing be heard of the Agame-
MINOR, the Niagara, after coaling, will pro-
ceed to the ocean, having still thirteen hun.
dred miles Of cable. 1t is conjectured hat
the Agamemnon had arranged quantity of
coal at the time of failure, and is awaiting
the Niagara.
