No! Let him aspire to the highest, noblest

of no rank, and that it is of higher value

knowledge, and many brilliant gem he will

dormant in the meanest breast. Who can

Billy Williams, the comedian, was

Burton, who delighted in quizzing Bill
ly, once made some inquiries Of him
relative to a horse belonging to Mr..
Hamblin which seemed to arouse Billy,
and he thus commenced his reply:
"Now, Burton, I'll tell you all about
that 'orse; you see when first arrived,
I said to Amblin, Tom, I wants an
'orse; 1 ave always been used to ave an
orse, and I would like to ave one.

money, and will not permit him to be

STARCHING LINEN.-To those who
desire to impart to shirt bosoms, col
lars, and other fabrics that fine and
beautiful gloss observable on new lin
ems, the following recipe for making gum
arabic starch will be most acceptable,
and should have aplace in the domestic
scrap book Of every woman who prides
herself upon her capacity as a house
wife and the neatness of her own, her
husbands, and familys dress; and if
she does not take pride in these things,
her husband is an unfortunate man.
"Take two ounces of white gum ara
bic powder put it into a pitcher, and
pour on it a pint or more of boiling
water according to the degree Of strength
you desire, and then having covered it,
let it stand over night. In the morn
ing, pour it from the dregs into clean
bottle, cork it, and keep it for use. A
tablespoonful Of gum-water stirred in
to a pint of starch that has been made
in the usual manner will give the lawns
(either white, black, or printed) look
Of neWness, when nothing else can re-
store them after washing. 1t is also
good, much diluted, for thin white mus
lin and bobinet. II Augusta Cronicle.
! To CATcH RATs.-When house is
infested with rats that refuse to nibble
toasted cheese and the usual bats, a
few drops Of the highly scented oil of
rhodium, poured on the bottom of a
cage trap, will almost invariably attract
| it full of the "mischievous rodents
before morning. We have known this
to be tried with the most extraordinary
success. Where a trap baited with all
manner of edibles had failed to attract
single rat, the oil Of rhOdium caused
it TO be completely grounded night after
night until the house was cleared of the
noisome visitors. The same oil Of rho
dium is used by some keepers of rat
pits, who when their hands are smear
ed with it, do not hesitate to take these
animals up by the dozen out Of bags,
fearless Of bites
OpoDELDOo.-This lotion being q val
uablo application for sprains, lumbago,
weakness of joints, &C., and it being
difficult to procure either pure OF freshly
made, we give a receipt for its prepar
atom Dissolve an ounce Of spirits of
camphor in a pint Of rectifed spirits Of
wine, then dissolve four ounces Of hard
Spanish soap, soraped thin, in four oun-

CURE FOR THE BITE OF A MAD Doc,

Ny Dear Nephew: 1 thank you for
your kind and affcctionate letter, and
assure you that its suggestions are all
in accordance with ny own feelings
1t does not appear to me unreasonable
to believe that tho friendships in this
life are perpetuated in heaven. Flesh
and blood, indeed, cannot inherit the
kingdom of Cod but L know not why
that which constitutes a pure. source Of
happiness on earth, individual affection
and love, may not survive the tomb
Indeed, is not the principle Of happi-
ness to the sentient being essentially
the same in heaven and on earth? The
love Of God and Of the good beings
whom he has created, and the admira-
tion of the material universe which he
has formed-can there be any other
sources of happiness than those to the
human mind, unless it is to alter the
whole structure and character? And
again it may be asked, how can this
world be rightly called scene of pro-

which we are compelled to cherish and
cultivate here, are to leave us on the
threshold Of the other wOrld2 These
views, and many others, would seem to
lead to the belief that earthly affections,
purified and exalted, are fit to carry
with us to the abode Of the blessed
Yet, it must be confessed that there are
some things in the New Testament
which may possibly countenance a diff.
ferent conclusion. The words Of ouI
Savior, in regard to the woman who
had seven husbands, deserve deep re.
Election. am free to confess that some
descriptions of heavenly happiness are
so ethereal OF sublimated as to FIJI me
with a strange sort Of terror. Even
that which you quote, that our depar
ted friends care as the angels of Cod
penetrated my soul with a dreadful emo
tion. Like an angel Of God, indeed
1 hope she is, in purity, in happiness
and in immortality; but 1 would fair
hope, that in kind remembrance of thos,
she has left, in a lingering human
sympathy and human love, she may ye
be as God created her, a little lowe
than the angels.
Ny dear Nephew, I cannot pursue
these thoughts, nor turn back to set
what have written. Adieu. D. w.
