Growing Old.

Growing Old.
It seems but summer ago since we
looked forward with eager hopes to the
coming years and now We are looking
sadly back. Not that the dream has
passed, but that it has been no more
worth to those around US. As the glow
ing hopes and ambitions of early life
pass away-as friend after friend departs,
and the stronger ties which hold US here
are broken-our life seems but bauble,
glancing for moment in light, and then
broken, and not ripple left on the
stream. Forty years once seemed long
weary pilgrimage to tread. 1t now
seems but step. And yet, along the
way are broken shrines where a thou
sand hopes have wasted into ashes; foot
prints sacred under their drifting OF
dust; green mounds whose grass is fresh
with the watering of tears; shadows even,
that we would not forget. We will gar
ner the sunshine of those years, and
with chastened steps and hopes push on
toward the evening whose signal lights
will soon be seen swinging where the
waters are still and the storms never
beat.

BE Generous.

Oh! it seems to me, my kind friends,
if cold, calculating selfshness only knew
one-half the delight that springs from
generosity we should have fewer ungen-
erous and sordid people in the world
For our part, we wish everybody could
do just one generous and noble act in
their lives in order that they might know
how good it feels. Ah greater, far
greater is the JOY of giving than receiv-
ing. And do you suppose, OH close
listed misanthrope, that all your riches
were intended for yourself? If you do
we are sorry for you, and should advise
you to step into substantial Insurance
Office and secure policy before you
start on your upward journey. every
one for himself is your motto, eh? Oh!
all right; we wish you success in your
one-eyed idea and hope you'll be able to
render it available when you get into
the clutches of the devil. As the old
woman said of Universalism 1t may
be a good doctrine to live by, but a
mighty poor one to die by" Oh! my
friends, don't let your avarice choke up
the avenues of your charity, and never
miss an opportunity to be generous.

A Tear.

A Tear.
How beautiful the language of a tear!
speaking the same sentiment in every
zone and illustrating the same emotion
all over christendom. Oh, eloquent
tear! oh, tender and generous emblem Of
affection Oh, grateful offspring of IL
fond and loving heart, crushed by ths
weight of early woe, and rent by the
storms of an adverse fate. Now trsm-
bling on the mothers lids and now gl;s-
ening on the cheeks of the wife; now be-
dewing a fond sisters eyes, ana again
stealing down the furrowed cheeks Of
the aged sire Oh! ever beautiful, ever
sacred tear, thine is a language too deep
for words, too broad for the narrow con-
fines of tongues and races-too illimits-
BILE to be circumscribed, to be less than
universal.

as taught in the Court of King Charles
the Second, they assume as true that:
"Most men are towards; all men should be
knaves, and all the subject matter of debate
Is, only who's the knaYe of he first rate"
And they act as if they expected US to
believe, upon their interested testimony,
two very false and debasing propositions.
First, that if Lincoln is elected, there
will be rebellion in the South, and sec
ond, that our Government is SO weak
and cowardly that it cannot maintain it
self and execute the laws-and all this
is done as clever trick, to frighten Lin
coin men from the conclusion of their
own judgment and conscience, and drive
them to vote for some ether candidate to
whose support they could never be
brought by any motive more respectable
than Fear, at best, even when genuins :
and honest, is debasing passion, and
makes men do great many mean
tlrin:sss;- which when thecsft~.is.~aff they
are ashamed Of But feal, unreal and
ieigned. stimulated only as cover and
excuse for some mean action, is despica-
.bly vile, Hypocrisy, even when it pre-
tends to be virtuous and brave, is bad
enough, but the hypocrisy of fear and
cowardice is the last poor artifice of con-
scious imbecility. You suggest in your
letter that there may be class of men
who really desire the election of Mr..
Lincoln, but are deferred from his sup
port by tear-the fear that passionate
and unjust men will impute to them bad
motives-the vague fear engendered in
weak minds by the, persistent slanders
against Mr.. Lincoln, imputing to him
not bad acts ncr bad professions, but
secret bad intentions, at war with his
acts and professions and with the tenor
of his life; and you seem 20 think that
my views Of the subject might be help
full to such men. | doubt it; for have
little sympathy with men who lack the
moral courage to act cut the honest c0u-
clusions of their own minds. | advise
every man, however, to do what l try to
do myself carefully make up his mind
which of the candidates, under all the
circumstances, he would rather have for
his President, and then frankly support
that candidate against all opposers, let
who will carp or censure. That is GER
tainly the course of honesty, and, l
think, as certainly, the only course of
safety. For the man who begins by for
feiting his own self-respect, by unmanly
yielding to the dictation of others, will
be seen in the end to get what he de-
serves, the contempt of the very men
who cowed them into submission.
Let every man, then, who really pre-
fers Lincoln support him frankly and
above board; then success will be a vir-
tuous triumph, and defeat will be no
dishonor.
Most respectfully, your fellow citizen.
.,& EDWARD BATES.

Greatness.

Greatness. IS
All greatness consist in this-in being
alive to what is going on around one; in
living actually; in giving voice to the
thoughts Of humanity; in saying to ones
fellows what they want to hear or need
to hear at that moment; in being the
concretion, the result Of the present age.
In no other way can one affect the
world than in responding thus to its
needs, in imbodying thus its IDEAS
You will see, in looking into history,
that all great men have been piece OF
their time; take them out and set them
elsewhere, and they will not fit SO well;
they were made for their day and gener-
alton. The literature which has left
any mark, which has been worthy of the
name, has always mirrored what was
doing around it: not necessarily dag
uerreotyping the mere outside, but at
least rejecting the inside-the thoughts,
if not the actions of men-their feelings
and sentiment, even if it treated Of ap-
parently far-off themes.

Strangers yeti
After strife for common ends,
After title of old friends,
After passion fierce and tender,
After cheerful self-surre nder,
Heart may beat and eyes be wet,
And the souls be strangers yet.
Strangers yet!
Strange and bitter thought to scan
All the loneliness of mani
Nature, by magnetic laws,
Circle unto circle draws;
Circles only touch when met,
Never nlingle-stranse,s yeti
Strangers yet!
Will it evermore be thus
Spirits still impervious?
Shall we ever fairly stand
Soul to soul, as hand to hand?
Are the bounds eternal set
To retain US strangers yet?
Strangers yet!
Tell not love it must aspire
Unto something other-higher:
God himself were loved the best,
We're mans sympathies at rest;
Rest above the strain and fret
OF the world of strangers yet!
