The Shell Of the Pearl.

The daring diver tears from among the
Shiny weeds OF ocean dngy shell, and
breaking it i'll pieces, dlscloseS pearl OF
wondrous beauty and value. 10 me this
fact has ever been typical of the human
heart, as it often develops itself-beautituI
above precious gems, but constituting the
lifc-throb of very unsightly body
A plain, heroine is rare being, and cne,
perhaps, with whom few desire to be made
ACQUAINTED but cannot resist the impulse
of speaking in the praise Of one whom the
world regards with no honor, but who has Il
charm in ker smile, a power IN her kindly
tones, and AN influence in her blameess char
acter, that kindcs anew in many breasts u long
smothercda datfection for virtuous and noble lives.
The very unromantic name Of Phebe Smith
will not, | fear, increase the favor with
which she may be received; but adopting a
bit of Shakspeares logic y rose by any
other name would be as sweet, we are read
ily convinced Of the existence OF msnomers.
\ heroine, to be successful, must have
slender, graceful form, whereas mine is square
faced and angular Her complexion should
be- fair the rose and lily blended; her
tyesscs, golden brown CT black as the IA
ysn's wing but Phebe's face had a yellow
cast impaired by the reflection of az album
dance of hair of the same color, and 1t IS
also well spotted with freckles. Her nose,
which should be Grccian, is decided pug,
and her mouth, in its liberal proportions, is
very unlike rosebud. Her eyes, TOO, are
sadly in fault, being pale gray, when they
| i bo | KNOW
whether her teeth resemble strings OF pearl,
not being sure that she has any teeth at all.
There is nothing in the symmetry OF neE
| hands or feet to enforce the idea that she has
descended from gentle blood Altogether,
in form and feature, she is as far removed as
can be imagined from the celebrated Athe-
man models.
But, reader, in gazing at the human tacc'
and civing the well-deserved verdict OF beau
ty, do you look also upon the heart throbbing
with so many emotions that test OF our
worth which an Eye above rcadeth as II 1t
were a written page? The loveiest casket
NAV contain only tinsel and dross, and with
in that fair structure OF life, the object alike
Of envy and admiration, may be 4 hidden de-
f,rm;ty which we should behold with thrill
Of horror and alarm. .,
To me there is something beautiful in the
reflection that those to whom no exterior
charms have been givcn-no food for vanity
and its attendant evils-are sometimes made
the recipients of great inward gracos One
face is radiant with beauty-in all ages an
object of mans alteration another wins but
an indi ferent glance, perhaps sneer, when
upon it rests, like q halo, the smile of God.

to cover the retreat. Thus honored for it's

utterly reckless it always sought its way 10 the

Of the deTcending enemy, could but understand
the movement in one way. Those flying corria

to the rear, and their acson was therefore turn

fearful panic took possession of them all.

Pure Pleasure.

Religion is rich with glad influence 70. it
is principle infinitely vared--~it presldes
over the different phases Of human life, and
sanctions and allows them all. Religion for.
bids folly, forbids excess, forblds an empty,
frivolous !iying-and who wishes to live 50
Religion bids us have time for all things.
and wisely live for higher and purer destiny
than anything of this earth. 1t bids US not
be profane, or licentious, or indolent, or waste
full. Who wishes to be 50? But it does NOT
stop us OF one true joy. 1t torbds not one III
nocont amusement. Look up at the sky. is
not an expression of choerluinesa and joy
there, blended with purity ? Look abroad upon
the earth-i5 not nature glad ? Has not GOD
dimped the valleys into smiles aud throws
sunlight over the water, and crowned the nils
with rejoicing? 1t is true, life has many aud
grave duties-different spheres in life have
different measures Of duty-and the true con-
science must always consult circumstances
without and the great law within; but plea
sure, amusement Religion forbids them not
it gives them more genuine and de!lghtIul
ministry than anything else can. But not
only this. 1t sows within us the seeds OF an
undying Joy that fails not when outward
means Of happiness lail-when animal spirits
grow feeble and low, when sorrow darkens
and cares appaI. This it gives us, shedding
abroad holy serenity in the heart, and I'M
parting a calm lustre to the brow. 1t is a
principle of truth, and therefore it allows US
nothing that is treacherous and wrong; but
ali that makes happy and grateful and good
it opens for Us in abundant measure. 1t re-
veais new sources of happiness. 1t makes
the spirc of grass and the star, beautiful mn-
isters OF delight. And do we think that we
must sacrifice pleasure by choosing Il .islon
as our guide and our end 1t is sad mis-
take, as they we'll know who cling to the cha
lice q: sin, and drink tie bitterness OF It's
drogs. DO rot hesitate to follow CHRIST, be-
cause YOU think your pleasures will be less
Every truly pleasant thing it sanctions, and
deprivos us only Of the evil-,and even for
this it far more than rcpays US. it may check
a boisterous folly, but it bestows enduring
peace of mind 1t may forbid licentious ex'
cess, but it enkind!es u glorious hope 1t
NAV nut back the hand that reaches out after
clustering deceits, but it lights the pale colo
face with smile in death. Nothing, that IS
lawful now, will be unlawful when you JON
the church. No true pleasure will be less
pleasure then-it will be doepor and mora

OUR OFFICERS.

We learn from Lieut. Fuller that the off
GERS of the First and Second Kansas Regi-
ments are, with one or two exceptions, very
popular among the soldiers. We doubt il
any two regiments in tie service are under
the command of more popular, honorable
officers than the two Kansas Regiments.
Major Sturgis, Coils. Deitzler and Mitchell,
Lieut. Col. Blair and Major Cloud, display
ed particular bravery, on the field, and
were kind and obliging to the men, the lat
ter officer giving up his horse for the wound
ed flag bearer, Mr.. Miller, on the march to
Springfield. Capt. Mitchell, Of the Empo-
ria Guards, and Lieut.. Hills displayed SOL
dierly qualities and bravery, which have
endeared them to their men.
Mr.. Fuller says after the excitement in
regard to the whipping affair passed off,
Sturgis and Deitzler were not blamed so
much, and that they are now universally
liked by the soldiers. The blame was
somewhat removed from Col. Deitzler, from
the fact that he was absent at Clinton when
the whipping took place. ~ ....
