DULL TIMEs-The Philadelphia Commonwealth in an article on dull times, gives the following good advice to readers:
 " Ii times are dull, sharpen your wits with v!ew to greater efforts. If times are hard work the harder If times are slow, get up the more steam. We have no sympathy with croakers. It is within the power of the business commu- nity to make business good, if they will srt about it aright We.hate that detestable old stereotype song" There is nothing doing." Well, whose fault is it? Sirs, it is your own. Stir round and there will soon be something doing. It is by general consent that there IS at certain times so little doing. If instead of this, there was general determination that much should be done, it would be so. Concert of effort will insure the return of prosperity. Keep moving. If you cannot mako Sl 900, make $loo; if not $lOO, make $l. At any rate, do something" ....

KEEPING PROMISES WITH CH1LpREN.-A gentleman of nervous temperament once called on Dr. Dwight, President of Yale College. One of the Doctors boys was rather bolster ous, and pestered the nervous gentleman some what, whereupon he said to him :" My boy, if you will keep still while l am talking to your .father, will give you dollar" Instant y the boy flushed down as gentle as slecl- ing lamb. At the close of the gentlema,l's remarks he attempted to leave without giving the boy the dollar but Doctor Dwight was too fast fer him. He put dollar into the mans hands, saying, You promised my hoy a dollar for good behaviour. Give him that as you promised. If sir, we lie, our children will be liars also."

READ AN HOUR DAy.-There was once a lad wllo at fourteen years was apprenticed to a soap boiler. One of his resolutions was to read one hour day. or at least at that rate aud he had an old silver watch, left him by his uncle, which he timed his reading by. He stayed seven years with his master, and his master said when he was twenty-one that he knew as much as the young squire did. Now let us see how much time he had to read in seven years, at the rate of an hour day. It would be twenty-five hundred and ifty-fve hours which at the rate of eight rcadiug hours day, would be three hundred and nine teen days ; equal to fortyfrc weeks, equal to eleven months nearly years reading. That time spznt ill treasuring up useful knowledge, would pile up a very large store. l am sure it is worth trying for. Try what you can do Bygin now.--Chi!d's Paper.

JOHN B. GoUGH AND EDWARD EVERETT We find the following sketch of the olatory of these eminent personages, ill late number of Harpe,s:
 "In our own country, John Cough, who is the most popular and effective speaker with the great mass of the people, is a person of ordinary mind, of small learning, not graceful in manner, nor of musical voice yet he col lects crowds everywhere, who pay to hear him upon the subject they have always heard him treat, and who hang upon every word with tears, aud laughter, and delight. He is an oratoric actor He reels, and staggers, and falls he smiles, and s;ghs, and grins, in delin- cation of his tlielne Cough was engaged for fifty thousand dollars by the English Tempe rauce Society to work for them in England The sum is practical, substantial statement of the value of his oratory.
 con the other hand, Edward Everett is a person of large scholarship, of elegant and cul- tivated intellect and taste, of tie highest re- | fiucmcnt of association and manner Singu- larIy tmd, fastidious and cold, he is entirely | undramatic He has studied grace of gesture, never vehement, too enthusiastically quiyer- | ing, musical voice carefully modulatcd, and sublime propriety of delneanor. His dis courses are most carefully elaborated and com mitted the constitution of his mind, and his character, prevent his taking any side, ol pressing a powerful convic ion or view whicl might be distatefnl to any nearer he has ! consequently, neither the stimulus of oprosi tion nor the glory of victory and triumphant assertion. Yet is he called the greatest O our orators He it is who fills the great build ings and draws the admiring crowds. He Il the very contrast of Cough who, then. shal tell the secret of oratory 2"

 1He Medical W'orld' has an occasional touch of keen satire that is quite refreshing. Describing what it calls national disease, it says: ...
 Throughout North America the universal morbid appetite for patent medicines is a reg ularly constituted diseasc It is probably transmitted from parent to child, as insanity, scrofula, and nervous affections descend through families. To see man or woman who never purchased box of BrandretL's Pills, or a bottle of the Bala ef Very Fns FlOaeers, would be equivalent to seeing the fifth wheel of a coachs No such phenomenon exists.
 Mothers usually commence with Shcrman's Vernifuge Lozerges But whether they have or not. it is malicious to commence drugging the little creatures early, by way of accustom- ing them to more potent articles, when their strength will bear them. Spring physic usual- ly follows. It is divine art to keep off sick ness by seasonable doses of something that is good for the blood. At fourteen, young per sons begin to purchase for themselves. The latest advertisement should always be a guide in the selection of pateit medicines, on account of the responsibility and responsibilities of parties offering them for sale. This is great country every one has perfect inalienable right to kill himself with life-preservipg nos trumS.

 EARLY -Btackaoo0d's Mdgasine has the following on sanity aud early marlla- ges, which will suit other merdans besides London -
 Seriously, I do not think the clubs have to answer for the decrease of early marriages.
 Other moGern improvements ill society must bear their share of blame. I would back the hearts, mean the girls, against the clubs any day, only give them fair play. But no sen sible man of moderate means, no man who has to work and who is willing to work for his livelihood, I might perhaps say, no sensible man might, in any position, pick his wife out of ball room oI an opera-box, however much he may like to see her there. A true woman has much moro chance, we all know it, of wm- ming any love that is worth winning, in her own home in her undress, in her little nameless every day unstudied graces, sitting on stlle, lettering by brook, rattling in railway car riage, or busy and unconscious amid common household duties than in what the sex choose to consider the especial scenes of their glores and triumphs
 I have read somewhere, or have been told, that any woman three removes from Gorgon in personal attractions, can make any man propose to her if she has the chance of living in the same house with him for a month. l am inclined, with some modification, to believe it, humiliating as it may seem to us noble ami mals. At all events there was much more chance of early marriages, and happy ones, too, when neighbors of that large class who have children at their desire, but little sub- stance to leave them, met as neighbors when personal intercourse was more unrestrained ; when lad could grow up in intimacy with an- other family, and learn to call the girls by their Christian names without any fear of be- l ing asked his intentions.

OLD AGE.

The neglected portion of the great Ameri- can family is old age, we are sorry to Say :; not that We, as nation, are disreSpcctful to the old, or that they are denied or grudgcd anything. We perform the negative duty to them by avoiding all which shall occasion to them offence or deprivation but we do not perform the duty of assiduously seeing that they occupy always and only, tie places of honor and prominence nor, more particular ly do we study to contrive, untiringly and af- tectionately, how to comfort, cheer, strengthen and rccuperate them. The old man in one house may have his chair in the Grawngroom, and his place at the table, and be listened to when he speaks, and obeyed when he com mands.
 But iu another house, he will have his chair cushioned and pillowed, and his arm chair at the table, and the cook will be busted most with what will new y nouris'l or refresh his more delicate appetite while all listen first to his words, aud address conversation to him as d centre, and seek for his commands as all au- thor ty.
 This, we assure the reader, from onr own wcl.-weighcd observation ill both countries, is a fair picture between age in America, and old age n England. We have been sad to admit this to the commenting traveller. It is an unconscious fault in our life, too busy, our attention too overtasked, aud our plaus of home aud pleasure too unsettled and immature ; but the feeling for the better things is ill us, and time will bring this feeling into action.

AN INTERPRETER IN DEMAND.-An Ameri- can in Paris went to a restaurant to get his dinner. Unacquantcd with the French lal- guage, yet unwilling to show his ignorance, he pointed to the first line on the bill bill of fare and the polit, waiter bro't him plate of beef soup. This was very well, and when it was dispatch ed, he pointed to the second line The waiter understood him perfectly and brought him vegetable soup. Rather more soup than I want" thought he, but it is Paris fashion, He duly pointed to the third line, and plate of tapioea broth was brought him again to the fourth, and was furnished with bowl of preparation of arrow-root. He tried the fifth line, and was supplied with some gruel kept for invalids The bystanders now supposed that they saw an unfortunate individual who had lost all his teeth and our friend, deter. mined to get as far from the soup as possible, pointed in despair to the last line on the bill of fare The intelligent waiter, who saw at once what he wanted, politely handed him bunch of tooth-picks. This was too much our coun- tryman paid his bill, and incontineutly left.
