LOVING AND SYMPATHIsiNG.- Some ge-
niaI.hearted writer remarked that when
Tithonus asked for ah eternal life in the
body, and fotihd to bis sorrow, that i'm.
mortal youth was not concluded in the bar
gain, il surely was because be forgot the
perpetual gift of living and sympathizing.
Truly human heart never can grow old,
if it takes lively interest in the Joys aud
sorrows of others. What blights its bios
SONS is sel6shnsss, and reluctance to pro-
mote the happiness of other hearts. You
can make that group of voting people hap

you can make the heart of that old inau
leap like the heart ofa child, by little
kindness. Remember the secfet ofa SUM-

Society with their presence on this occasion.
During the evening, the Turner'S will give va
riOus gymuastic exercises.
The Social Turner'S Society may now be
considered permanent institution in our city.
Their Hall, in the fourth ward, has been fitted
up, at considerable expense, with nil the appa-
ratus necessary for physical Improvement The
value Of institutions of this kind in developing
the physical as well as the mental powers, can
not be too highly estimated. The exercises
usually taken IN such places tend to make men
active, 1.-the and vigorous, and does more to
promote health than any one not acquainted
with the effects of a weil-regulated exercise of
the human system can imagine. They are, in
short opposed to disease cradicGtors, and are
just such institutions as should be heartily sus-
tanned throughout the entire land. Every per-
son of sedentary habits should become mem.
Der. The cost is mere fife in comparison
with the benefit derived from occasional exer.
else in such institutions. The objects of this
Society are certainly worthy of the countenance
and support Of our citizens-then give the
Turner's benefit tomorrow evening.
