LABoRER's HoLIDAY.-The fine weather still
continues and everybody to a greater or less
extent, is taking advantage OF it, to add another
season Of pleasure to life, which, if rightly
spent, is full of care toll and responsibility How
pleasant the bounding horse the clattering bug
gy, the sky of immaculate blue, the still, fine
bracing air, the sombre forest, to feel your body
fly through the air, while your spirit for an in
slant flies away under the inspiration around
you, in excessive musings on joyous days that
have gone by forever, in communion sweet with
a bosom friend-the one adored, the wife, father,
mother, brother or sister
Oh, it is meet and good and mellowing, and
purifying and regencrating to break loose, now
and then, from the common, sordid' wearing,
cankering, head-hunting vocatons Of this lower
ife aud give ourselves up, for time, to the noble
emotions and warm affections of the human heart,
and to the estate sensations that thrill every
chord of our subtle nature, when the untettered
soul is allowed free intercourse with God, in the
contemplation of that which is strange and pure
and sublime and beautiful in Nature !-.NeUada

MURDER IN SCoTT's VAILEY.-We are impcr-
fectly Informed of the killing Of Mr.. Thompson,
by fellow named Poker JIM A quarrel had
existed good while about young woman whom
the latter stole from Thompson; on Monday Jim
met Thompson, shot him in the face and then beat
out his brains with the gun, and since gave him
self up to trial. This is all we can hear of the
matter-the telegraph being out of repair.

MAN-ADoRERs on the blind devo
ton of Mr.. Douglas friends, the Marysville
EypresS concludes:
"But, since the world commenced, there have
been time servers, and fawning sycophants, and
foadies to greatness, and doubtless will continue
to be, though they be lashed, and scorned, and
contemned by self respecting people of all sorts,
and spurned by the foot they aspire to kiss"
Precisely so; multitudes behave absurdly in
cononizing an individual whose martyrdom for a
principle is, probably, intended as the price Of
Presidency. But Mr. Douglas disciples are not
peculiar in that respect we have seen partisans
describing acute angles before much inferior men
and far less distinguished leaders.

nperhans nv dog will whine in vain

"Perhsps my dog will whine in vain
Till fed by stranger hands
But long ere | come back again,
He'd tear me where he stands"
Misfortunes and sickness come, and when the
huge trees trail their shadows along the opposite
hill, he feels deeper night gathering in his soul,
and when a stray minister of religion would
counsel prayer, he answers,
&" Who is God, that he should hear us
While the rushing Of the iron wheels is stirred
When we sob aloud the human creatures near US
Pass by, hearing not, or answer not word"
Thus, in bright beautiful world, in near
neighborship with hearts sympathetic and yearn-
ing for companionsbip, like his own, many an
one grows despondent, until in despair he lifts
his false key to the door which GoD's own hand
may open, and goes out to the bewilderng fields
where suicides search for rest.

The Lonesome Cabin Down the Glen.

We can comprehend the dreariness OF hours ac-
cumulatng in the miners lonesome cabin down
the glen. The fire burns cheerfuly, but the sparks
seem to drop like pound weights from the fore
stick. The silence outside is more oppressive
than the alterations of wrathful storms. In
spite of his resolution he thinks of his deserted
ireside, and in imagination little plain-faced sis
ters grow to the comeliness of angels, and she
whom, perhaps he has addressed unkindly, folds
her wasted arms about him, and in the unsearch-
able riches of mothers love, whispers in the
ear of his heart "My son!". Every brook, and
tree, and creature of home magnify in affection,
