The Secret of Success.

A
The shadows OF life surround us on all
sides, aud the sweet sunshine of our exist
ance ouly serves to render them more dis
tinct Indeed, life may be compared to
long avenue Of trees, in the centre Of which
is broad strip of glorious light, and on
each side gloomy masses of darkness, that
seem struggling to meet and devour that
delicious track Of brilliancy.
So it is with man on each side of him
are shadows but he may avoid them if he
chooses, or make ss much use Of them as
the weary trayeler-does when he shelters
himself in their repose from the too scorch-
ing rays of the sun. Darkness has its uses
as well as the light; it's the earth's couch,
and is as necessary to its healthy existance
as light, for universal nature is made Of
friendly extremes.
Not so however, reasoned young man,
as he stood by the side of sun-dial erect
ed in one of those old churchyards so com
mon IN the rural districts of England, and
which We all love for the qnaintness of
their sacred edi6ces and antique aspect.
He was evidently about twenty-five and
dressed in mourning, for he had just lost his
only relation, and bad to carve bis way in

lhnaDltants Iacking barrels lay along
the bench. and the sand sent up an odor Of
FISH oil, which was anything but pcrfame--
Here We left ny husband with boat, and
men, tent, and provisions, aud a goodly
array of. pick axes, and crowbars, for two
weeks exploration Of the country. How
] did want to remain With the part -
Bnt they frightened we With stories Of sand
flies, and moschetoes, and midnight thun-
der storms. On their return, they told OF
adventures, and Of scenery which would
have amply repaid for al discomforts. For
instance at Temperance River Which is a
large stream, the water leaps into chasm
oTeF 6fty feet in depth, and striking on the
rocks IN its descent, IS formed into whirl
pool at the bottom Bilets Of wood thrown
into il, were on their return, three days of
tcrward, still whirling there. As the top
of this waterfall, the rocks projected over
the abyss, and so nearly met, that man
could step across.
Then they amused US by long account
of their attempts to catch precocious
young duck They were cOasting, as sail
ing along the shore is termed, and came
upon the mother duck, and several young
ones. One Of these ducklings they vainly
pursued for over two hours, for it would
dive, and double upon its track, and cvadc
them in every way, A lady who listened
to the story, said that in one of her coast
ing journeys, they saw duck with nu-
mcrous family Of little ones, and Immediate
ly started in pursuit. As they neared
them. the mother swan IN among them Civ
ing peculiar call, and every dgekling sciz
ed her feathers with its bill, and away sshc
lutteFed, using her wings, but remaining
on the water. and herself and family were
soon beyood The reach Of barn.
On later excursion. we left tho boat to
stroll along the shore, and emerging from a
little thickct, came uaawares upon an In-
dian burial ground The graves were all
covered with birch bark, and at the head
of one of them, the scalp Of a Sioux was
fastened to pole. IS was decorated with
strips of fur and red flannel, and fea-
theirs were attached to the strips. Probab.
ly the Chippewa warFier who slumbered be-
meath, had killed the foe whose matted haiI
adorned his tomb. Only few nights ago
the Indians on the peninsula opposite
made night hideous by tleir drummings
at a scnlp-dance. a Sioux had heen killed
near the Mississippi River, and his scalp
had been forwarded, and Welcomed thus by
every band upon the way. N
I We have number of distinguished
strangers in town at present, and several Of
the editorial fraternity have recently visi-
ted US. These are the men who come
among us takin' notes, and faith, they
iprent 'em" too; so we are just now, on the
qui uire to see their papers. Sometimes we
are made TO feel quite proud Of our little
city, and then sometimes we " were very
wrcth." One thing is sure, we form our
estimate of the editor by the account he
gives If he lacks appreciation of the
town, We lack the same Of him, and so,
should you come to Superior, ahem you
will know how to gain our" good graceslr
