Quaker Sarcasm.

7s The society Of Friends, as is well
known, are am ong the most upright
and worthy of. the Christian sects,
Their mode of public worship is very
plum and simple. Divested Of all
forms and ceremonies, they profess
to serve God in spirit aud in truth,
sometimes in silence, at other times
by exbortations or, preaching by
Some one who feels impelled to aG-
dress them.
Thomas Coies-more familiarly

BRIGHAM YOUNG. - Horace Greeley
in one of bis letters from Salt Lake,
gives this description of the personal
appearance Of the High Priest Of
MormonisIn:
''Iie was very plainly dressed in
thin summer clothing, and with no
sign of fanaticism. 10 appearance
be is = portly, good-natured, rather
thick man Of fifty five, seeming TO
enjoy life, and be 10 no particular
hurry to get to heaven. His asso;
ciates are plain men, evidently born
and reared to life oflabor, and look
ing as little ike crafty hypocrites OF
'swIndlers as any body Of men lever
met. The absence Of cant or snuf.
fle from their manners was marked
and general, yet l think / may
fairly say that their Mormonism
has not impoverished them. that
they were. generally poor men when
they embraced it,. and are now in
very comfortable circumstances, as
men averaging three or four wives
apiece certainly need be" "l,i

No Blight to Endorse.

liable to loss in consequence of such
endorsement ssl-7
2. He has no right TO endorse

lion independent Of any after bro-
yiding for all other obligations.
p 8. He has 10 right to endolss
unless ne fully-intends to pay. when

them of what belong to them.
5- He should never endorse or
become responsible for any amount

the first party. II should be made
a business Transaction, rarely a matter
of friendship. It is equivalent 10 a
loan of capital TO the amount Of the
obligation, and the same precautions
should be taken to seeu.a it.
1 6. a man has no more night to
expect another to endorse his note
without recompeusa, than 10 expect
an insurance company to insure his

Z. 1t is not good business policy
for one to ask another to endorse
his note, promising to gecommoAate

change of signatures may have,
and usually does have, a very un-

From this stalk side branches spring

two feet. These branches are thick

nothing very remarkabieia in the shape

the plant for few nights consecutive

perceive that on the first night about
four inches of the root of each brasch
will be covered with open blossoms;
the next night they viii al be found
closed, and four inches higher on the
