The Light of a Cheerful Face.

There is no greater every day virtue
than cheerfulness. This quality in man
among men is like sunshine to the day,
or gentle, renewing moisture 10 the
parched herbs. The light Of q cheerful
face ditfuses itself, and communicates the
happy spirit that inspires it. The sourest
temper must sweeteu in the atmosphere
Of continuous good bumor. As well
might fog and cloud. and vspor, hope to
cling 10 the sun illuminated landscape, as
the blues and moroseness 10 combat
jovial speech aud exhilarating laughter
Be cheerful always. There is no path
but will be easier travelled. no load but
will be lighter, no shadow on heart or
brain but will lift sooner in the presence OF
determined cheerfulness. 1t may some
times seem difficult for the happiest tenn
pered TO keep the counteEance Of peace
and content; but the difficulty will vanish,
when we truly consider that sullen gloom
and passionate despair do nothing but
multiply thorns and lbicken sorrows. Ill
comes TO us as providentially as good,
and is as good il we righifully apply its
lessons who will not then Cheerfully ac-
cept the i'll and blunt It's apparent sting =?
Cheerfulness ought TO be the fruit OF
philosophy and Christianity. What is
gained by peevishness. BY perverse sad
ness and sullenness If we are i'll. let US
be cheered By the trust that we shall soon
be in health il misfortune befall US. let
us be eheered by hopeful visions of better
fortune: if death rob us Of dear ones. let
us be cbeered by the thought that they
are only gone before 10 the blissful
bowers where we shall all meet to part nc
more forever. Cultivate cheerfulness il
only fol- personal profit. 1t will be your
passport and commentator in society,"
You will be more sought after, more
trusted and esteemed for your steady
eheerfulness.

DREAMLAND,

YYo have told me oft o! land that lies
Meath The light Of orient SIX les,
Where Earth in her bloom is ever fair,
And soft wingd zephyr wanders there.
We have told me oft Of that far. off cline
Where the "songsare sweet us n vesper chime, "
And We sometimes thought 'twere bliss to dwell
In The 'rnncing light Of that fairy spell.
Ye have told me oft Of that lovely spot
Where winter-iTosls can enter not;
Where the skies are blue and briqh, for ave.
And the summertime ne'er fades away.
Ye have trld me of cf that home OF bloom
Where the fow'rs breathe forth their sweet per.
fume,
And the roses bend DER the crystal streams,
But only dies in the realm oil dreams.

The New Dahomey of America.

The London Daily Nesrs, Of the 9th In
staff, has this sharp criticism Of JEFF.
Davis & Company
"The Southern agitators have q keen
sense Of the feebleness OF their position
As long as the excitement Of secession
lasted they were tolerably sure Of their
ground. But now it is over, and the
people are asking what next, they per-
ceive their danger. For, what have they
done ? They have, as far as acts are
worth anything, voluntarily cut of their
States from the only connection which
gave them political dignity or credit. As
long as they were confounded in the
grand total of American nationality, they
shared the high and noble place which its
vigor, freedom aud enlightenment secured
it in the regard of the world. All this the
South has lost. 1t has not only isolated
itself, but in the madness Of fanaticism
has founded its constitution on that very
social feature which is most odious in the
eyes Of the civilized world.
II has abused the name Of Republic 70
set up Confederation Which men are
already calling NeW Ddhomey, ,oiA a
Mississippi rspudiotor for its chief and q
band Of piotsssed duelists, adVeuturers.
sharks and public plunderers for its leaders.
Bad as the South is proved to be by the
fact Of its slavery, we may be quite sure
that the Wigfalls, Slidells, Yanceys and
Benjamins cannot fairly represent either
its morality or statesmanship. These men
only condescend to lead the South be-
cause they are not permitted TO loot the
North any longer, and, if TINE is given
them. they will exhaust and disgust the
slave states just as they have wearied and
angered the free. Their names aud
antecedents are pledge that while
they are st the bead OF affairs the
career of the Confederacy viii be one Of
turbulence. bad faith and intrigue, or con-
ques! for the extension of slavery. Their
language is that Of men who feel that the
very principle of their associations cuts
them off from noble future. From being
part OF glorious nation they have be-
come joint stock corporation for uphold-
ing and extending the enslayement Of
their fellow man."

Hope and Memory.

An OLD poem of the North tolls of brave
boy, who in his earlier days found his moth
ers cottage too marrow, mourned at tending
tho goats on the mountain side, and felt his
heart swell in him like brook from the
melting of tho snow, when he saw a ship
shoot like gu arrow into the bay. He ran
from his mother and the goats. The Viking
took him on board. Tho wind swelIed tho
sails. Ho saw the hilltop sink in the blue
deep, and he was riotously glad. He took
bis fathers sword in hand, and swore to con
quer him houses and land by the sea. He
also is Viking. He has been all over the
Mediterranean coast, and conquered him
houses and land by the sea. But now, In
bis old age, bis palace in Byzantium is a
weariness to him, and he longs for the cot.
tage of bis mother. He dreams of the goats;
all day the kids bleat for him. He enters q
bark be sails the Scandinavian coast, and
goes to the very cottage too narrow for bis
childhood, and eats again the barken broad
of Sweden, and drinks its bitter beer ;
bares his forehead to the storm sits on the
rocks, and there he dies.
BURY me not, l pray thee, in Egypt"
said old Jacob. "but viii lie with my fathers;
bury me in their burying place"
The scholar becomes antiquary; no likes
not young men unless he knew their grand.
fathers before. Tho young woman looks in
the newspaper for the marriages, the old
man for tho doaths. Tho young mans eye
looks forward tho world is all before him,
"whtre to choose" 1t is bard world; he
does not know il he works little and hopes
much. The middie.aged man looks round
at tho present; he has found out that it is o
hard world he hopes less and works moro.
The old man looks back on tho fields he
has trod "ihis is the tree planted this
is my footsteps" and he loves his old house,
cat. dog, staff and friend.
In lands where the vino grows, ! have
seen an old man sit oil day long, q sunny
autumn day, before his cottage door. in his
old arm chair, his dog crouched at his feet
in the genial sun. The autumn wind played
with the old mans venerable hairs above
him on the wall, purpling in the sunlight,
hung the full clusters of tho grape Iipen-
ing and maturing yet more. The two
were just alike the wind stirred the vine
leaves, and they fell stirred the old man.
hair. and IL wbitened yet more. Both were
waiting for the spirit in them to be fully
ripe. The young man looks forward, the
cid man looks back. How long the shadows
lie in the setting sun; the steeple mile
long. reaching across the plain. as tho sun
stretches out the hills 10 grotesque dimen-
sions. So are the events Of life in au old
mans memory.

The Agitation in Poland.

Tho political agitation in Poland is quito
formidable, and its extent and aims arc
of an important character. Ii Is evident
that the national feeling and life Of the
kingdom have not been crushed out, even
under the hoof of the tripartite despUtism
Of Russia. Austria and Prussia, and tho
desire for independence is strong az it was
in 1881, when the Poles made such a gallant
and heroic effort to overthrow their Oppress-
ors. The people of Warsaw lately deter
mined to commemorate, by grand funeral
procession, the memory of tho brave and
gallant Poles who were killed in the grea:
battle OF Grochow, fought under the walls
OF the capitol in 1881, against the Russians.
The soldiers OF tho latter marched in an
immense body at Warsaw, refused to per-
nit 1t, and fired upon the multitude-an
act which has created On intense feoling all
through the country, aud greatly added to
tho patriotic ardor which has been so long
suppressed and hidden from the public gaze.
The boldness of the denomination at War
saw has alarmed tho Government, and i'm
mense reinforcements of Muscovites arc
pouring in to reinforce it's garrison. The
emeute at Warsaw, and the demands for
reform which are being made by the popular
leaders, chow that an agitation is on foot
which may break out at any time into an
other revolt against the Gar as bloody and
desperate as that of 1880 and 1881. EN-.
barrassed by the difficulties of tho emanci.
patton Of the serfs, which is encountering
the determined opposition of the nobility,
and engrossed with the settlement Of that
great social and political problem, the
Russian Emperor would not desire, at the
present time, to booome involved in n con-
test with the Poles, to put down whom. in
1880, required the whole strength Of the
Empire

cts 5000 feet above its crater, while in
i74l its blazing mass, struggling for an
outlet, roared SO that its awful voice was
heard distance OF more than 600 miles.
In 1897 the crater Of Tunguragua, one OF
the great peaks Of the Andes, flung ou,
torrents of mud, which damned up rivers,
opened new lakes. and in valleys of a
thousand feet wide, made deposites six
feet deep. The steam from Vesuvius
which, in 1897, passed through Tory del
Greco, contained nearly thirty four million
cubic feet of solid matter. and, in 1894,
when Tory del Greco was destroyed a
second time. the mass OF lava amounted 10
forty.fve millions OF cubic feet.
In 1879 the crater Of Etna poured forth
food that covered over eighty square
miles Of surface, and measured one hun
dred millions OF cubic feet. On this oc-
casion, the sand and scorie formed the
Mont Rossis near Nocoloci, cone two
miles in circumference. and four thousand
ieet high. The stream by Etna, thrown
out in 1910, was in motion at the rate Of
yard per day for nine months after the
eruption and it is on record that the lava
OF the same mountain, after a terrible
eruption. were not Thoroughly cooled and
consolidated ten years after the event.
In the eruption OF Vesuvius, A. d. 70,
the scori@ aud ashes vomited forth far ex-
ceeded the entire bulk Of the mountain
