Hadley, the friend of the poor and fatherless, and for the Divine impuls- es which impel men to give to the charity that he directs for philanthropic and humane ef- ort everywhere for that one touch of Nature which makes us all akin ; for the invention of Lager as substitute for whisky, and for the prospect that the world will sometime grow wise enough to discard both for such curren- cy as our banks will give us, and for such stray pieces of gold as we can get for the decline in the capacity of shavers and the wants of borrowers /; for any rate of interest less than two per cent. month, with bullion for collateral for the steam blow and the prospective dsenthralment Of all manEind for the sewing machine and the emancipation of our wives and daughters for the Paraguay expedition, which will further demonstrate the imbecility of our venerable Chief Magistrate j; for the subsistence of the potato rot, and for the improvement in the virtue of Congressmen; for the treaty with Japan, and the discovery of gold on the Platte for the decline in the vanity of the female sex !; for the fashion that makes calico admissible where necessity de- mands that it should be worn for the less scandal in sewing societies and scandal bees ; for the Old Dominion Coffee-pot and the pres ervation of the sausage-making art for the mud, snow and rain which give life to the rub Der and umbrella trade for Pro-Slavery doc trinesin the pulpit and for the opposite truths to which they lead for every grief and sor- row, for every death and disaster whereby the littleness and meanness of human ambition are demonstrated; for every enobling Christian thought and impulse whereby mans relation ship to God is established for every act of humanity and justice in which Gcd is made nearer, and for every act of worship in which His love and His mercy are acknowledged j; for every charitable deed with which Heaven is pleased :; for this World as it is-with all its woes and wisdom, it's crimes, casualties and curses, charity and Christianity-the good with the bad-let us be truly, devoutly, and unfeignedly thankful content with the assur- ance that in Divine Mercy all things are or dained for the best.
