BRIGHT YoUTH-It is said that one of the
"brigbtest" boys in the large class recently
gathered from all parts of the Union to be exam
ined for admission to the Annapolis Naval Acade-
my was little fellow from Texas, fifteen years
of age, who had been three years setting type in
a newspaper office, and had studied mathematics
aud geography by dip candle, in the garret of
a log cabin, at night. lie was poorly clad, and
had worked at type-setting in New Orleans and
other points, to pay the expenses of his journey.
If not admitted, he expected TO work his way
back again. 1t is just such boys as this that
move the world.

FAREWELL TO GREECE.- Bayard Taylor, in his
last letter from Athens thus bids tender fare
well to the land of colossal heroes aud mighty
memories
Let me not lose the pensivc sweetness and sad
ness of Athens. The sun is rapidly sinking in
the clear saffron light beyond the pass of Daphne,
and purple flush plays along the high barren
sides OF Hymettus. Before me rises the Acropo-
lis with its crowns of beauty Parthenon, on
whose snowy front the sunset of two thousand
years have left their stain. In the distance is the
musical Egean dancing with the whispering
waves to fill the rock hewn saacopSagus of The
mistocles. Pato's olives send silver simmer
through the dusk that is creeping over the Attic
Plain. Many an evening have | contemplated
this illusrious landscape, but it never was rs
lovely as now, when look upon it for the last
time. Every melodious wave in the long outline
of immortal mountains-every sacred marble in
the august piles OF ruin-every bluodcd auemone
on the banks of the lssus and every asphodel
that blossoms on the hill of Collonus-i know
them and they know me- Not as a curious stran-
ger do | leave Athens, not as II traveller eager
for new scenes, but with the regret of who
knows and loves the sacred soil, to whom il has
been sanctuary aud home.

Domestic MANUFACrUREs-" Have you any
domestic manufactures to report 7" asked q
census marshal of the female head Of a family,
rejoicing in the bloom of health.
"Well, yes" said she with something of en-
barrassment in her voice, and countenance,
eve have eight with continued prospect !"
The marshal, who is q modest man, bushed
slightly, made the entry in the schedule with his
pencil, and asked how many yards OF rag carpet
ing she made during the year.

The PAST AND PREsENT.-The old year has
gone to the tomb of Time, with its irrevocabe
records, and the new fairly ushcred i'll. 1t is a
terrible thought that every word and deed good
and evil, is recorded in the Book of Time past
all correction or recall. How many an erring
mortal, as the dying year, with wan and skeleton
finger, pointed to the past, exclaimed, too late
too late !"
Old Time is merciful, and from the death of
the old new year has sprung forth, full of hope,
and promise, and joy, bidding Remorse and Des-
pair away to the haunts of the lost. The future,
all dccked in roses and triumphal wreaths, may
disSipate the shadows that hung palllike over
memory regrets, and urge us to forgetfulncss
of all but hope.
What time so fitting as the present to take an
inventory of our vices and virtues What time
more appropriate to overhaul our moral log, y
note our errors and take fresh start? He that
does not learn useful lesson from the past, and
profit 10y the knowledge, is the unworthy possessor
of Gods best gift to man-reason. Like Divine
mercy, the pure, white snow has spread her man
tie shroud over the sere and embrOwned earth
hiding her nakedness and withered face. SO let
the mantle of charity fall on the poor, and cover
the sins of our erring brothers.

THE PoLWICo COMMERCIAL PANIC--A CONNER
cial panic has some reason in it, II the country
has run into wild speculations, and contracted an
ovcrtoppling mass of credit on narrow base,
we look upon our misfortunes MS legitimate
consequence OF conduct for which we are all to
blame But here is different kind of panic--a
totally new experience lor the United States A
comparatively small knot of politicians, seeing
that the possession of The Federal Government is
about to pass into new hands, aud that their dig
mites, honors, immunities, and occupations will
all be gone, avail themsc Ives OF the eXcitabilitv
OF Il portion Of the Southern people with respect
to slavery, and seize the opportunity to carry out
long cherished plans of forming separate CON
iederacy in the South of which they shall be the
Kings, Lords, and Commons" 1t Is nothing
else. The exact truth of history is, that though
slavery lies ut the bottom Of an interminable
controversy between Northern and Southern So
cety ii IS not Immediately the bone OF the pres
ent crisis This crisis Is brought on by few
men of the high demagogue stamp with whom
the possession of power is the first aim. They
hinge on slavery instrumentaly and secondarily.
To use the words of large STAKEHOLDER" They
would as soon as not cut all my slaves throats /;
ii is their own elevation to power, their own ag
grandizement, that they are seeking. They have
but little to lose-many OF them have no stake
in society "-IHe century.
Antiquity or IIoors.-- There is curious little
song, dating back to 1901 entitled 40 mother,
Hoop IN which the value OF hoop skirts Is set
forth by fair damse in terms that would delight
II modern belle, 1t commences thus -
Z" What a fine thing have | seen to day
mother, Hoop!
| must have one you cannot say Nay;
mother, Hoop"
Another stanza shows the practical usefulness
Of the hoop -
" Pray, hear me, dear mother, what have been
taught:
Nine men and nine women o'erset in boat
The men were all drowned, but the women did
float,
Aud by help of their hoops they all safely got
out"
The fashion for hoops was revived in I'LL, in
which year was published in England "a Pane
gyrick upon the Late, but most Admiroble In
vention of the Hoop-Pettycoat" A few years
later, l726,) in New England three penny
pamphlet was issued with the title, " Hoop Petit
coats Arragned aud Condemned by the Light of
Nature aud Law of God" by which 1t would
seem that our worthy ancestors did not approve
the fashion. In 1928 find hoop SKIRTS and negro
girls and other 50 chattels" advertised for sale in
the same shop !AHaatic Nonhly.
