DoS'T BELIEVE WORD OF IT-Nething is
more common than for persons of all classes to
imagine that they would be very happy indeed
if they were only in this, that, or the other
condition. Young people are very apt to think
that if they were only married they would be
the most blsst of mortals-just as a very hun
cry man, or thirsty man, imagines that food
or drink is the only necessary thing. Now this
is al trick of the :" arch enemy ~ who Sc
duced Eve, and is all bosh therefore don't
wants to cheat US out of what we may enjoy
in possession of what we have, and so he diverts
our minds to objects which we have not

make anybody really happy, any more
than one flower will make a boquet for the
very good reason that human life is constituted
OF thousand strings, every one Of which must
be touched, and touched rightly, too, to make
sweet harmonious music. Even John Wesley,
who never got married, said or wrote, long
ago, that getting married would not make one
happy.
To the above We will add only one qualifca-
ton, namely When the reader is tempted to
think that glass of BROOKS Soda Water, or
dish of his Ice Cream, or luscious Fruit, is
just the thing, you may well believe it. Ifyou
are at all sksrtical in the matter, then, by all
means, go and try it. and settle the question.

SERANADIsG.-We pity the man who never
was walked out of profound slumber, at the
witehing hour of midnight by enchanting
music. The dread stiffness indicates that the

spheres, which q walk the earth, both when
we wake, and when we Sleep Slumbe2 has

ONLY AN 0wL.-The indication that Con-

sharp retailers adding that item to prices
After all q there is not going to be much Of a

IMPROVEMENT IN CURRENCT.-Tbe present
indications show that nearly, if not quite all
the bills thrown out few weeks since, rela-
ting to which there was 50 much feeling and
disorder, will be made current thus showing
how great the injustice done 80 Bankers geuer-

and to fall only on the guilty We do not hest
tate to pronounce the denuneiation and hue
and cry of the time an unparalleled outrage
So great was the rage that reason was de-
throned, and only passion ruled the hour. We
are informed that a demagogue in this city,
addressing German meeting on the subiet of
currency, called upon it to throw off the Re-
publican yoke, or what was tautamount to
this. The better portion of Germans have too
much intelligence and integrity to heed such
olap-trap, or shallow demagogueism.

OUR LUNATIC ASYLUM.-We last week allu-
ded to the fact, that our County Board had
made an appropriation and appointed com
mittee, to erect building for the accommodation
Of several lunatics who cannot be admitted in
to the State Institution. and are not but indif-
ferently provided for at present The more we
reflect upon the matter the more are we con-
Vlnced that eatimportance should be attached
to this measure in several respects 1t is to
the financial aspect of the measure that we
wish again to direct public attention. We fear
that the Board has been too hasty in the mat
ter, and that it has come to the conclusion it
has adopted without due consideration There
is great danger Of immature action in all such
matters, but especially in this By want of a
suitable plan, and of proper adjustment, the
appropriation will prove like hole in the pub
lie pocket money thrown away and even
worse than that. It will at once suggest itself.
that the county is by no means prepared to
erect and keep up separate sanitary Institu-
ton Of this kind-it would sink itself in the
slough of bankruptcy and financial disgrace.
II the County Board has hurried the matter to
crisis, We fear it will be liable to the charge
OF sinister motives, Can it be that it has con-
Guided to erect a building remote from the
County Poor House, or any other county build
ing, to oversee and manage which will REQUIRE
an extra officer, and consequently more than
double the cost Of connecting it with the Poor
House, where it could be attended to without
additional charge by the Keener2 Wa osk
only that the best method may be ADOPTED, and
are sure that the tax payers, who foot the bills,
will second Us in so doing. The matter had
better be deferred, even at the discretion OF
the committee, rather than prove a blunder
We confess ourselves in the dark, and would
like light on the subject-win not some one
