ADVICE TO LITERARY AsPIRANTs.-l say, then,
in deep earnestness, to every youth who hopes or
desires to become useful to his race, or in any
degree eminent through literature seek first Of
all things position of pccunary independence ::
learn to live by the labor of your hands, the
sweat of your face, as a necessary step toward
the career you contemplate. If you can earn but
three shillings day, by rugged yet moderate
toll, learn to live cOntentedly on two shllings,
and so preserve your mental faculties fresh and
unworn to read, to observe, to think thus prepar-
ing yourself for the ultimate path you have cho-
sen At length, when u mind crowded with dis
covered or elaborated truths wW have utterance,
begin to write sparingly aud ersely for the near
est suitable periodical-no matter how humble
and obscure--if the thought is in you, it will find
its way to those who need it. Seek not compen-
sation for this utterance until compensation Z hll
seek you then accept 1t if an object, and vot
involving too great sacrifices of Independence
and disregard of more immediate duties. In this
way alone can something like the proper dignity
of the literary character be restored and main
tanned. But while every man who either is. or
believes himself capable of enlightening Others.
appears only anxious to sell his faculty at the
earliest moment, and for the largest price. | can
not hope that the public will be induced to re-
gard very profoundly either the lesson Or the
teacher.-Greeley.

twelve thousand five hundred impressions and
Hoes ten cylinder, that turns out sixteen

BE true to yourseves-true to each other
to God What more abhorrent vice than de-
btion? The face covered with smiles and the
,rt rotten as II sepulchre. The hand FIRST
hiding your eyes, and then leading you to the
ecipce. The tongue beguling your face
kth honeyed words, and sharpening its arrows
launch at your back.
Oh that inestimablc jewel Of truth-truth in
he tongue in the life, In every manifestation
IF the reason, the love, the passions of humanity
Terrible to the young heart is the first decep-
tion. She who looked all purity, all angelic
goodness betrayed her trust, aud left your soul
desoate. Heaven only knows through what
depths of darkness the bruised spirit struggled
to light and joy again. But the light has never
been as pleasant, the JOY rekindled burns not
like the brighter fires of long ago. The tears,
the sleepless nights the hours OF keen despair,
when hand seemed even on your throat aud
dagger Mt your heart--for what would you live
them over? Death would be more welcome.
We could bear with petulance, smile at un-
kindness-the assaults of harsh temper, or the
moody silence of frownine brow but trcach-
ery iaithessness, trust betrayed-thank God
that we have never known the full import of those
terrible words
Be true, then, If you would be respected. No
power on earth can change the fiat that even the
world gives the deceiver. He may weep tears
of blood, but the monuments of his own shame
still stand to testify against him. Once liar,
always u liar. A very child can tell where de-
ception conceals itself, and casual thought,
lightly expressed, ferrets it from its hiding
place,
BE true if you would be loved. The heart is
like an army bristling and harmless seem the
long rows of bristliug steel but every one OF
those polished shafts may be used as au instru-
ment of torture.
So il you deceive the heart that beats warmly
tor your love. your appreciation may be con,
/crtcd into a gallery OF deadly weapons, and
you will be responsible for the mischief that
results through lite's long battle. Let truth
be as dear to you as the apple of your eye and
when the blush springs not to your check and
your tongue falters not even ut the unuttcred
thought of deception, then be sure that you are
neither fit for earth or heaven for the society
Of men or angels.

A Nut FOR PoL1rlcrAxs.-The Yreka Journal,

A Nut FOR PoLTICIANs.-The Yreka Jounah
aH independent paper, says If we were a poll
tician. and belonged to the side where it would
6e advantageous for us to do SO, we should most
likely ask why it is that nearly all, if not quite
all, of the newspapers that are advocating
Douglas for President, make a point of holding
up before their readers the fact that Mrs, Douglas
is Roman Catholic. Has that lady's religious
belief got to be hauled into the political arena !?
While engaged in the perfectly honorable and
le giimate business of presenting to the public
in the best possible light, the claims OF a man to
an office, are we justifable, and does political
warfare warrant us in attempting to influence
the political opinion of any one by constantly
prattling that the wife of our man is q practical
believer in the religious doctrines of such and
such denomination? Let Mrs. Douglas and her
religion alone, unless il is designed to make the
religion of a mans wife test by which men
shall be guided in voting for or against him
We think all this loud talk of political papers
about Mrs. Douglas religion in very bad taste
Most certainly the attempt to make political
capital out of her religion should be regarded as
an insult, both to the lady and the Catholic
voters of the United States. Don't do it any
more, you gentlemen who are desirous of elect
ing Douglas President. There is not a Catholic
Irishman in the country but what feels the insult
offered to his religion when this bid for his vote
is thrust at him.

A Coon ONE-lIoG IN Hoo Our A good
one is told OF worthy old deacon in the city OF
s., in Northern Ohio. The deacon was the
owner and overseer of n large pork packing es-
tablishment His duty was to stand at the head
of the scalding trough, watch in hand, to " time'
the length of the scad--" Hog in !" when the
lust slaughtered hog was to be thrown in the
trough, aud d" Hog out!" when the watch told
three minutes. One week the press OF business
compelled the packers to work unusually hard,
aud Saturday night found the deacon completely
exhausted. Indeed he was almost sick the next
morning when church time came, but he was u
leading member, and it was his duty to attend
the usual service if he could. lie went Tho
occasion was one of unusual solcmnity, as royi-
val was in progress. The minister preached
sermon well calculated for effect. His peroration
was a climax Of great beauty. Assuming tho
attitude of one intently listening, he recited to
the breathless auditory
"Hark they whisper, angels say
" Hog in |" came from the deacon's pew, in
stentorian voice. The astonished audience turned
their attention from the preacher. lie went on,
however, unmoved -
"Sister spirit, come away "
" Hog out y shouted The deacon" tally rour!'
This was too much for the preacher and audience.
The latter smiled, some snickerod, while few
boys broke for the door, to "splt their sides
laughing, outside, within full hearing. The
preacher was Disconnected cntrely-sat down
arose again pronounced n brief bencdiction,
and dismissed the anything else than solemn
minded hearers. The deacon soon came to n re-
alizing sense of his unconscious inerlude, for his
brethren reprimandcd him severely while boys
caught the infection Of the joke, aud every posi-
bic occasion afforded an opportunity for them to

THoUGuT.-Thought, deep, earnest thought, is
the want of the age. People now content them
selves by mbbng the principles which are every
morning dillused through the newspapers, and
which are so often hideously mingled with error.
The devil never made better hit than when he
invented journalism not that but sometimes a
little sound sense is found in their pages. yet, for
the most part, they are characterized by desire
to pauder to the public taste. whether it be for
good or evil. The paper has certain number
of subscribers, who must be satisfied with the
&" hash" that is every day served up to them.
Whatever good is in them is forced to cover the
surface, and. like gold, is hammered to

THE SEoUEsTERED VAIEs.-lt is strange, and

unhappy victims return to earth and relate to
man their eventfu history--how it WAS there

WHERE MEN Look FOR WWEs.-Where do men
usually discover the women who atterward be-
come their wivesy is u question we have occa-
soually heard discussed, and the custom has
invariably become of value to our readers
Chance has much to do in the affair, but, then,
there are important and governing circumstances
1t is certain that few men make a selection from
bathrooms, or any other place OF public galety,
and nearly as few may be influenced 10y what may
be called showing off " in the streets, or by any
allurements of dress. Our conviction Is, that
ninety nine hundred parts of all the hhefy win
which women decorate or load their persons, so
for nothing so far as husband catching is con
cerned. Where and how, then, do men find
wives In the quiet homes OF their parents or
guardans-a at the freside, where the domestic
graccs and feelings are alone demonstrated.
These are charms which must surely attract the
high as well as the humble. Against these all
the fnery and airs in the world sink into inslg
nifcance We shall Illustrate this by an anec-
dote. A certain gentleman, whose health was
rapidly declining, was advised by his physicians
to try change of climate as Il means Tor recovering
his health. His daughters feared that those VINO
had motives entirely mcrcenary would not pay
him that attention which he might expect IRON
those who, from duty and affection united, would
feel the greatest pleasure in ministerlng to his
ease aud comfort. They therefore resolved to
accompany him. They proved that 1t was not a
spirit of dissipation and gaiety that LED them 10
do this, for they were not to be seen IN any OF
the gay and fashionable circlesi they were never
out of their fathers company, and never stirred
except to attend him, either to take the air or
drink the waters. In word, they lived reclusc
life in the midst Of town, then the resort OF me

exemplary attention to their father procured tue
