Last Of the IIuSgermuggCrs.

Something must be done with our good
natured friend, Daa. Comfy, Of the Dayton
Journal. He is ghilty Of tho following most
tantalizing paragraph:
A sprightly schaol girl who attends the
"Central High" where tho teachers have. a
way Of melting the pupils to undarstanp
what they say in the classes, was reading
the "last OF the Huggermuggers," and stir
ed by the spirit of inquiry, stimulated by
her teachers, if not by natural feminine GU
riosity, asked boy cousin of hers the mean.

full for moment, and then said-"I'll show

time to make any further remark, John had
his arm around her waist, and subjected il
to a gentle pressure,-"That's nue. HER

Wealth Is NOT All.

Are you rich man or woman or, IN
other words, have you thousands of dollars
safely invested, drawing on interest more
than sufficient for all your necessities or
wishes 3! And having this, are you satisfied,
coutented, joyful Is your home pleasant,
cheerful, tidy and comfortable Ifnot, why
do you rush and scramble to accumulate
wealth, to the utter exclusion of every "a.
tional, healthy recreation and enjoy ment!
Suppose you do not make money 40 fast,
and while you are making it, you Ellow your
family and yourself to enjoy life while it
passes away What il you should relax
occasionally from your BUSINESS, and spend
few days with yonr family and friends

iHg them all behind-take your wife, or sis.

would you lose by it! sa
What II you 60 back and forth from your
business. day after day, for years, with knit
brows and forbidding mein, and meanwhile

truest happiness Of (which human beings are

Our cattle and horaes have all of these and

be fed, supplied, nourished, as well as tho

Another Event Of the Age"

Mr.. Everett. He writea thus in regard to
the successful hanging of a gate, the effect
of which upon society in general, he states

Atlantic cables ever laid
On the thirty-frst, the stin rose in the east j,

The hinges were not completed until 2, P.
M. Precisely at 3 o'clock we commenced
operations, the posts having been already
set. The hinges worked to charm, and at
8 O'Clock the gate was swung magnificent.

elevated our hat into the air, shot gopher
with two charges, and whisted q TIE Deum
to the tune Of Yankee Doodle.
The other post was then set, and at 6
O'Clock the connection was complete, and
signals came through from post to post with
remarkable distinctness. With brow barred
and locks flowing, we swung it through back

Progress of Good.

We perceive, amid all the admixtures Of
evil and all the disorder Of conflicting agen-
cies, a general tendency, nevertheless, to.
wards the accomplishment OF wise and bene-
fetal designs. As. in contemplating an eb.
bing tide we are sometimes in doubt, on q
short inspection, whether the sea is really
receding, because from time to time wave
will dash farther up the shore than that which
had preceded il; but If we continue our OBJ.
servations long enough we plainly zee thai
the boundary Of the land is, on the whole I'D
vancing; so here, by extending our view
over many centuries. and through several
ages we may distinctly perceive the tehden'

AarOp Burr.

Randall, In his life Of Jefferson, thus de-
sCribes Burr:
"Burr possessed much cunning and much
penetration of particular kind; but, like
most wholly unprincipled men, he overated
the power Of evil. He believed every man
and woman had an easy price. He there
fore relied on personal appliances, and petty
intrigues and 6nessiDg, to obtain objects
wholly beyond the reach Of such means
He baited mouse-traps expecting to catch
elephants in them. His fe-long history is an
exempli6caton Of that trait Of mind, and It is
lifelong roll of failures. In every great
crisis Of his career we find him with intense
cunning in bis look, and mystery in his rap.
id movements. setting his little traps. But
he was always just wise enough to be out
generated when he came in contact with
wise man he was always just artful enough
to beat himself at any attempts to be cum
ming, and by mere force of his abilities, and
a straightforward life, he might have been
far more successful. He loved intrigue for
its own sake. There was fascination in
it which blinded his judgment. He was
ready to embark in It, and was sanguine of
success, where a man OF less astuteness but
without his taste for plotting, would have
foreseen the Certainty Of defeat. 1t takes
another trait to complete the character of a
rash and ready conspirator. He was very
proverbially insensible to danger. He was
willing to risk his life to carry out tine most
paltfy amour. He was willing to risk it a
thousand times in any desperate effort for
fortune and power, rather than glide along
smoothly in the current Of q common sue.
cess. When we consider his peculiar char.
acter, and weigh testimony, adduced at his
subs >guent trial, which was not impeached
or even ye2dered the subject of just suspi-
cion, little doub: seems to remain that he
contemplated dismcmberment Of the Union
as direct result of his enterprise, or rather
as contingent result, wirich was to follow,
if success crowned the first branch OF the un-
dertaking.

most beautifully expressed
One morning in tho blossomrg May,
a child was sporting 'mongst the flowers,
Till, weariod out Nth his restless play,
He laid him down to dream away
Tho long and scorching noontide hours
At length an angels unseen form
Parted the air with conscious thrill,
Aud poised itself, like presence warm,
Above the hoy who was slu mbering still.
Never before had so fair throng
Stayed the swift speed Of its shining wing;
And gazed down, with wonder rare,
On the beautiful face Of the dreamer there,
The angt stopped to kiss the child,
When 10: at the touch the buby smiled;
And Just where the unseen lips had pressed,
A dmpc lay in its sweet unrest,
Sporting upon its cheek Of rose
Like ripple, wakei from Its light reposc
On II strssnlet's breast, when the soft winds blow
And the angel passed from tho sleeping one,
For his mission on earth that day was done.
A fair face bent above the boy
u must have been the boys own mother,
For never would such pride and Joy
Have lit the face Of any other.
And while she gazad, the quiet air
Grew tremu,ous with whispered prayer;
Anon It ceased, and the boy awoke,
And y smile Of love on his features broke.
Tho mother marked with holy Joy
The dlmpled cheek OF her darling boy,
And caught him up, while warm surprise
