GOnspicssOSity.

Seems, in these degenerate days, to be
one of the highest objects of human
ambition. People must have their
names in print, or registered in book
of some of the great men Of earth. -
The following is the latest exemplifca-
ton Of this fact:
The Rev. III. w. Beecher kept open
house, according to the custom, on New
Years day, and each person who called,
registered his name in the book, which
is kept from year to year for that pur-
pose. The names registered during
the day were one thousand and one,
exceeding, by over hundred, the number
Of the last year.
