MISCELLANEOUS READING.

The handwriting of most persons varies
with the progress of life, and continues to
change till the character of the individual is
formed, when it remains pretty well fixed
for the remainder of life. The character Of
the generality of persons is said to be form
ed by the time they attain to twenty-five or
thirty years Of age; and this is true as far as
the general bent of the genius of an indivi-
dual and his disposition, and perhaps, his
capacity are concerned The brightest youths
do not always make the ablest men and dull
tyros sometimes turn out to be great genius
es. Dean Swift was slow and plodding
student at the University, but most brilli-
ant wit and satrist in after life. All the
great novels of Walter Scott, which have rem
dered his name so memorable, were written
after he attained to fifty years of age. His
reputation had not reached its culminatsng
point till his hair had begun to be sprinklsd
with gray.
AN ITEM FOR SMoKERs.-A letter from the
grandson of the veteran Ralph Farnhan, ac-
knowledging the receipt Of five dollars paid
by correspondent Of the Boston Traveller
for the autograph of his grandfather, con-
tains the following item, which may be Of
interest to the tobacco-loying people OF this
country:
within bundle of thirty letters which
I have opened for him to-day, found sever
alnquiring if he used tobacco in any way.
Presuming you might possibly wish to know,
l will state that he commenced the habit of
smoking when he was about forty years old.
and is now an inpeterate smokerp u.
MORMON WlvEs-"A FAIR SHAKE" De-
MANDED.-Brother Kimball, in one of his FAM
Gus Mormon sermons, served the following
timely notice on a number Of missionaries
who were about starting out on proselytiz-
ing tour:
Brethren, want you to understand that
it is not to be as it has been heretofore. The
brother missionaries have been in the habit
Of picking out the prettiest women for them
selves before they get here, and bringing ON
the ugliest ones for US; hereafter you have to
bring them all here before taking any of
them, and let us all have q fair shake.
