A Young Mans First Lesson.

Timothy Titcomb is guilty Of uttering
some blunt truths, and here is one from his
letters to the young:
Il take it that the first great lesson a
young man has to learn is that he is an ass.
The earlier this lesson is learned, the better
it will be for his peace of mind and success
in lite. Some never learn it. and descend
into the evening of their existence, their
ears lengthening with the shadows as they go.
Some learn it early, get their ears cropped,
and say nothing about it; while others SEN
sibly retire into modest empioyments, where
they will not be noticed. A young man
reared at home, and growing in the light of
parental admiration and pateInal pride can
not understand how any man is as smart as
he is. He goes to town, puts on airs and
gets snubbed, and wonders what it means
gets into society and finds himself tongue
tied undertakes to speak at debating
club, and breaks down or gets laughed at
pays attentions to nice young woman, and
finds u very large mitten on his hands, and
in state of mind bordering on distraction,
sits down to reason about it. This is the
critical period of bis history, The result
of this reasoning decides his Fate. If he
thoroughly comprehends the fact that he
does not know anything, and accepts the
conviction that all the world around him
knows more than he does, that he is but a
cipher, and whatever he gets must be won
by hard work, there is hope for him.
Belmont chronicle. [volume] (St. Clairsville, Ohio) 1855-1973, 1862-08-07
A Good Illustration.

In the Independent of last week, in an ar.
tce entitled Patriotism of the People,
Mr.. Beecher says:
"For.morc than sixteen months, this grea,
twcnty-nillion people, educated to free ac'
ton, accustomed TO parties, to endless di
visions and contentious, have stood before
the world a unit for Union The recent ef.
forts of few masked men in the North to
create party of opposition to the Govern
ment, have but served to show the breadth
and strength of this Popular Unity. They
ran out of the great channel into bayou,
and thought the current would follow them.
Instead of that, the great river flows on, and
they, cut off, sit around the edges of their
pool, which every day is drying up and be-
coming smaller and dirtier, croaking into
each others faces the melancholy doctrine
that if the people would not adopt their
puddle, they ought to have done it"
Belmont chronicle. [volume] (St. Clairsville, Ohio) 1855-1973, 1862-08-07
Can this be So p?

In noticing the recent stevedcre riots in
Cincinnati, the Toledo Commercial as
serts
There are positive evidences that these
riots were the result of concerted movements,
originating in New York, and melted by
emmissaries dispatched simultaneously to
to the different cities. 1t is understood that
OF party of four which left New York for
this purpose, one remaiHed in this city, an
other went to g &c matt by the Day
ton & Michigan road, and another proceeded
to Chicago, This will account for the order
and time IN which the riots ia the several
cities occurred.

A Shrewd Irishman.

An Irish priest was standing at the corner
Of square about tho hour Of dinner. when
one Of bis countrymen observing the worthy
father in perplexiiy, thus addressed him
"Oh Father o Leary, how is your rivir-

Mighty put out, Pat, was the reply.
''Put out who'd put out your rivircnce?
"Ah you don't understand; that is just
It'll am invited to due at one Of the houses

"Oh, is that alp was the cry; ''just

|. So saying, awaxs few the good. natured
ffishmai, around the sQaare, elancitig at
the Kitchens, and when he discovered a fire
that denoted hospitality, he Numbered at
the door and inquired, rs Father q Leary
here ?"
As might be expected, again and again he
was repulsed, At length an angry footnnan
exclaimed:
"No bother on Father O'Leary he is
not here, but he was TO dine here to-day,
and the cook is in rage, aud says the din
ner will be spoilt. All is waiting for Father
OLeary."
Paddy, leaping from the door as if the
steps had been on fire, rushed to the aston
ished priest.
'All is right, your rivirence; you dine at
43, and mighty good dinner you get. I"
"Oh, Pat" said the grateful pastor
'Long life and happiness to your rivir.
