TIMES GO BY TURNS.

The following beautiful poem, by Robert South
well, who was born in 1860 and executed at IyourI
IN 1885, is, in compactness Of thought and felicity
Of expression, hardly equaled by any similar pro
duction within our knowledge. 1t Is perfect mo
sale of maxims, and, with very slight alteration
would bear cutting up into lines, every one o.
which would serve as apothem.
The Topped tree In time may grow again
Most naked plants renew both fruit and Hover;
The sorriest wight may find release from pain;
The driest soil suck In the moistning shower;
Time goes BY turns, and chances change by course,
From foul TO fair, from better hap to worse.
The sea Of Fortune doth not ever flow;
She draws her favorS to the lowest ebb; rI.
Her tides have equal times 10 come and go;
Her loom doth weave the fine and eoarsest web;
No 10Y 80 great bat runnetb TO an end,
No hap so hard but may in fine amend
Net slways fun of leaf ever spring;
Not endless night, nor yet eternal day.
The saddest birds a season find to sing;
The rougbest storm a calm may soon allny.
Thus, with succeeding terms, God tempereth Al,
That man may hope to rise, yet fear to fall.
A chance may win that by mschance lost;
That net that holds no great, takes little ASH
IN some things ALL in all things are crossed;
Few all things need, but none have all they wish;
Unmingled joys here to no man befall
Who least hath some who most hath never all.

USEFUL HINTS TO YOUNG MEN.--How many
young men ignorantly deny themselves for
tune. There is scarcely young man Of good
sense 10 this city who cannot save 500 easily
from his annual earnings and If he will forego
cigars, billiards, and juleps, be can save double
that amount. Figures sometimes produce In
credible results. Thus, for instance, If a young
man upon his twentieth birthday will invest
500 10 any stock, paying ten per cent and
annually thereafter win invest the same amount
and the accumulation Of interest, he will be
worth, when he is thirty years old, 81, 1853 /;
when forty years old, $4,000 when dfty years
old, $lS,l50 when sixty years old, $48,700.
How simple, then, is the plan by which q
youth Of the present day can pass his old age
In comfort and luxury. He has only to regu-
late his expenses SO as to save one hundred dol
lars a year from his income. II the amount
saved be larger, then the sum total will be in
creased in the same proportion.
Only think of it. that $500 saved annually
and Invested In ten per cent Stock will amount
In forty years to $243.500 One million inves
ted In the same way for ten years will amount
to $2,t93000 ; In twenty years to $6,726,80 (;
In thirty years to $l7, ,3s4,62s; in forty years
to $45 5,250,838. No wonder then, that the
Rothschilds have amassed such boundless
wealth.

WISHING.

OF all the amusements Of the mind,
From logic down to fishing,
There isn't one that you can find
So very cheap as "wishing"
A very choice diversion, too,

And not as we are apt to do,
Peryert Il, and abuSo it-
l wish-a common wish, indeed
NY purse was somewhat fatter,
That might cheer the child Of need,
And not my pride to fiatter;
That might make oppression reel,
As any gold can make it,
And break the tyrants rod OF steel,
As only gold can break it.
wish-that sympathy and love,
And every human passion
That has its origin above,
Would come and keep in fashion;
That Scorn, and Jealousy, and Hate,
And every base emotion,
Were buried fifty fathoms deep
Beneath the waves OF ocean
/ wish the friends were always true,
And motives always pure;
/ wish the good were not so few,
/ wish the bad were fewer;
wish that parsons ne'er forgot
To heed their pious teaching;
wish that practicing was not
So different from preaching
Iwish--that modest worth might be
Appraised with truth and candor;
wish that innocence were free
From treachery and slander;
/ wish that men their vows would mind,
That women ne'er were roversj
wish that wives we're always kind,
And husbands always lovers
wish-in fne-that joy and mirth,
And every good ideal,
May come, erewhile, throughout the earth,
To be the glorious Real;
Til God shall every creature bless
. With his supremest blessing,
And hope be lost in happiness,
And wishing in possession ~. g. Sare.
