How to Get Along.


We have some suggestions 10 offer
which will enable our readers to get
through life in the most easy manner.
If bee has the andasisy to sheathe it's
sting in your cuticle. justice demands
,hat you should instantly upset the hive
wherein the offender had his headquar-
tiers and exterminate every bee therein.
If dog bites you in the calf OF your
leg, stern Justice demands that you
should bite the dog in the calf Of his leg.
On the sublime principle, If an irate
donkey rudeIy eIevates his posterior ex-
sremities against your sacred person,
the true way is to kick back: If horse
falls upon you the same principal OF te1
talionis requires shat you shold fall upon
the horse. If Joggs call you liar. the
treatment is to call him liar, fnd thief
into the bargain. IF you are farmer,
and neighbor's COW happrnts to get
into your young corn, you instant mode
of satisfaction is to turn all your COWS.
hogs. ETC.. into his own. BY following
out these sublime ideas of justice and
self resi- ect, your daily life will be tu Il OF
sweet peace, and you will eventually be-
come as docile and playful as a kitten.

Irishman, private in the color company
rushed from the ranks across tho vacant
ground, attacked the squad Of rebels
who had a possession of the conquered
flag. with his musket fclled several to the
ground, snatched the flag from them,
and returned safely back to his regiment.
The bold fellow was, of course, imme-

A Hint for he YOung.

Sidney Smith, in one of the ablest Of
his Essays, says:
4 know of no principle which is Of
more Importance to fix in the habits of
young people, than that Of the most de-
termined rcsistantc to the cncroarhments
of ridcule Give not up to the world,
nor to the ridicule with which the world
enforccs its dominion over every trifing
question of manper and appearance. -
Learn from the earliest days to insure
your principles against the perils of rid
iculc you think it right to differ
from the times. and to make a stand for
any valuable point of morals, do it, how
ever rrs.ic, however antiqua'ed, however
pedantic 1t may appear; do it, not for in
science, but seriously and grandly. as n
man who wears soul of his own in his
bosom, and does not wait till it.shall be
breathed into him by the breath of fash
ion. Let men call you mean, if you
know you are just; hypocritical, if you
arc honestly religious; pusillanimous, if
you feel you are firm. Resistance soon
converts unprinciplel wit into sim
cerc respect; ane no aftcr,ime can tear
f ON you those feelings which every
man carries within him, who has made
noble and successful excrtion in a vir-
tuous cause"

Punctuation Puzzles

The following paragraph is an Illus

which some writer's wofully neglect, and
when they DO undertake it, bungle it in
an awful manLer. There are two ways
of pointing ii, one Of which makes the
Individual in question monster of wick

into model Christian. Let our readers
exercise their ingenuity on the problem
and sec if they can discover its two-fold
solution. r .. rr.

Curses Coming home to KOOSf.

Toronto Globe, has hunted up somo
of Vallandigham's old doings Of hostil-
ity to England. and sounly berates the
Canadian toadies for their attention to
the banishcd traitor. What tho Globo
especially dilates on, is a passage in the
resolution offered to Congress. at the
time of the Mason and SlideI excite
mcnt, in which Vallandigham urged the
Government to approve and adopt tho
act of Commodore Wilkes 'in spite Of
any menace or demand Of the British
government The Globe thinks that
the author of this sentiment should not
receive any great attention from loyal
British subjects, and the Canucks are
already beginning to be ashamed OF
themselves. Vallandigham's object in
pursuing the course he did is we'll known
and it is q little amusing how his curses
now come home to roost. He won't get
any more attentions from the Canadians.

And there in peace and quetness,
As natures child I'd fondly rest

And noueht Of sorrow would see
