felicitnuely illustrated the Effects ri war
upon national wealth by proposing, soms
years since, during ore Of the Disputes
between England and the unitsd States, tlat
each party, INSTEAD nc resor,lng to aruis,
should sat fire to enc Of their prinripa! cities
and send certain number Of ships laden
With valuable cargoes to he sunken in mid
ocean. Afterit had BEEN zdiudged thlt both
sides had sustained sufficient damage, peace
might re 'eg"tiot-d. Rood would thua be
saved, mnd the usual effects Of war in mutu-
al in jury be produced.
The lawyers and merchants who painted
in such glowing culors the situation OF ths
Unite States maj have beer indnlging in
the brascadocip with which they cont:naaiiS
snek to inspire terrnr. Thry maS, however,
with that facility of seif-decep:iou which mas
characterized the Tankecs f:om the begin
ming, honestly believe their atalemcEta.-
Their most sanacinus statesmen have recently
told The Yankees that they lad begun tina
war under an entire mia.pprehonsion Of the
strength of tn. South as cnuIarrd with their
own. Their dalusioa may not yet have beet.
entirely dssipated. They inay still regard
tho conquest ot a people SIS II simple question
ui arithmetic. Pertlsting ip al exploded fall
lacy, they rate the Disparity ns twenty nii-
lions to six millions, ignoring the slaves rs All
element of strength. Including them, tn.
odds may not he counted Is twenty to nine.
A great disproportion. Truly, hut. fer q war
of conquest upon a brSye people, less than Is
requisite. General Scott is reported 20 have
said, at The beginning Of the war, that there
ehuuld be a superiority Of thrre to one. the
Yankees eau scarcely .hsiatEin in the field
armies exceeding those VIC have already
driven back. Tho sauna determination will
again defeat thc:u. and ~ may be ssS,eed
that we are i~ntiicting s~!tiisien, punishment
upon them to disgust shom heartily wish the
war so soon as they sre Convinced Of the i'm
practicsoility Of conquest.

MANNERs.-Young folks should be mans
nerly But how to be 90 is the question.
Many good boys and girls feel that they
can not behave to suit themselves in the
presence of company They are awkward,
clownish, rough. They feel timid, bash
ful, and self distrustfal the moment they
are addressed by a stranger or appear in
company. There is but one way to get
over this feeling, ana acquire easy and
graceful manners that is to do the best
they can all the time, at home as web as
abroad Good manners are not learned SO
much as acquired b habit. They grow
upon by use. We mnst be courteous
agreeable, civil, kind, gentlemanly and
womanly at home, and then it will be a
kind of second nature everywhere.

Mr.. Vance, the XIII store keeper, had

people she was starYYing-ah, no! she

my love was just as sincere. And now that
my hope is rcsurrectea, the home place

purchased, and Bessie and Charlie shall be

what 'Retta said; but it was not many

THE POPE AT SERVICE.

Yet Que may wander amidst all these
magnificent results of Art in the Vatican
and St. Peters, yet fail to catch the spirit
that breathes throughout them. The ac-
tors in this splendid theatre should be no
ted, as they move In full costume to till
the swelling scene. This was our object
upon the first Sunday morning In Sum
mer as we drove toward the piazza of St.
Pe.e:'s. Fhe pope was to officiate in Sistine
Chapel. our ladies had dOffed the gaudy
ribboned bonnet and donned the simple
black veil. We had, according to the rule,
But on dress coats. The crowd increases
as We drive within the enclosure, Fol-
lowing our guide along the straight corri-
| Idors. and through files of the Pope's Swiss
guards, dressed in fantastic yellow and
black, with Turkish pants and long spears,
we were ushered by soldiers Zone of whom
valiantly seized my cane and straw hat
and bore it away in triumph) into the

GooD ADvICE.-Be not hasty to believe
flying reports, to thedisparagement Of any
one. A man that is honest at heart, never
wishes to injure his neighbor or neighbors,
by false representations, or by leaving a
wrong impression on their mind. A man
should consider we'll before he speaks, and
when he does speak, he should be honest
and speak the truth !; in SO doing he will
not deceive his neighbor, as his expressions
will be considered conclusive evidence oi
his heart, and be relied on.
