RESIST R1D1cuLE.-I know of no prin-
ciple which is of more importance to fix
in the habits of young people than that of
the most determined resistance to the en-
croachments of ridicule. Give not up to
the world, nor to the ridicule with which
the world enforces its dominion over every
triling question of manner and appear
ance. Learn from the earliest days to in
sure your principles against the perils Of
ridicule. If you think it right to differ
from the times, and to make stand for
any valuable point of morals, do it, how
ever rustic, however antiquated, however
pedantic it may appear; do it, not for in
science, but seriously and grandly, as q
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 fashion.
Let men call you mean, if you know you
are just; hypocritical, if you are honestly
religious; pusillanimous, if you feel that
you are firm. Resistance soon converts
unprincipled wit into sincere respect; and
no after time can tear from you those feel
ings which every man carries within him
who has made a noble and successful eX-
ertion in virtuous causc.-Sidney Smith.

GENERAL SLocuM, commanding post
in Tennessee, has devised happy method
of providing subsistence for those families
whose natural protectors are in the rebel
army. 1t is eminently proper that these
persons, women and children, should be
supported by their disloyal neighbors.
This idea has been improved upon, and it
has been accordingly ordered that they be
taken to Fayetteville, where they will be
furnished with such quarters as the place
affords, and that contributions Of all nee
essaries be levied on the citizens of lincoln
county. Let rebellious population sup
port its own. Other destitute persons
are to be sent to Nashville. The sale of
supplies to officers in greater quantities
than is required for their own use is pro-
hibited. Thus the number Of rations to
be issued will be materially decreased
the weight of treason will be thrown on
the shoulders of the rebels themselves
our lines will be cleansed of disreputa-
BILE and pestilential class, and altogether it
is a most salutary measure.

THE MODEL NURSE OF THE AGE. -
Florence Nightingale is younger thln her
royal sister OF Windsor Casle-haviHg just
completed her fortieth year. Judging from
the photograph, she is slight in person, and
has quiet, kindly, old maidish face. She is
Just such 4 woman as the Creator would
make for such 4 mission of benevolenre.
She is no Hebe, stealing young officers
hearts by diamond eyes and cherry lips; nor
is she hard-featured "Sairey Camp" with
sleeves and dress tucked up, and going
about her work with the rueful alacrity of an
undertaken. Her face is 4 trihe sad, but
beaming with benevolence. After all, as
Mrs. Primrose saws, "what is good-looking
but looking good" In reply to the petulant
charge that the sick or wounded might have
"more self-control," good, gentle Florence
says: Believe me, almost any sick person
who behaves decently, will exercise more
self-control every moment of his day than
YOU will ever know till you are sick yourself.
Almost every step that crosses his room Is
painful TO him; almost every thought that
crosses his brain is painful to him; and il he
can speak without being savage, and look
without being unpleasant, he is exercising
self-control. Suppose you have been up all
night, and instead Of being allowed to have
your cup Of tea, you were told that you ought
10 exercise seIfcontrol,' what should you
say Now the nerves Of the sick man are
always in the state that yours are IN after
you have been up all night.

The Boston Jonmal, of February 25th,
saws: "Our mercantile readers may re-
member French vessel called La Manche,
which was brought to Boston by prize
crew in the year 1862, she having been
captured in the Gulf by the Ino, on suspi-
cion of having run the blockade. 1t was
proven, however, that she had legally
cleared from New Orleans, and she was
released, whereupon the agent of her
owners made up famous long account
of damages sustained by the detention,
amounting to 5O4,577 francs. This was
submitted to arbitrators ]. NJ. Forbes on
the part of the United States and Isaac
Thatcher on the part of France, with Wm.
Perkins as umpire, The gentlemen, after
an examination of the claim, have awarded,
as full compensation, l40,735 francs, and
Secretary Seward has asked Congress to
appropriate that sum. Among the items
claimed was one of 5000 francs for dam
age done by the ship having grounded at
Fort Independence, and again at the wharf
in Boston, and 1000 francs damage done
to sails and rigging while the ship was at
the wharf. All this arose from stupid
Custom House official at New Orleans,
who used the old Confederate printed
forms, thus exciting the suspicious of the
naval commander who captured the La
Manche "

BOOSTED PEorLE.-People who have
been bolstered up and lcvered up all their
lives, are seldom good for anything in a
crisis. When misfortune comes, they
look around for something to cling to or
lean upon. If the prop is not there, down
they go. Once down, they are as helpless
as capsized turtles, or unhorsed men in
armor, and they cannot find their feet
again without assistance. Such fellows
no more resemble self-made men who have
fought theT way to position, making diff
iculies their stepping-stones, and deriving
determination from their defeat, than vines
resemble the oaks, sputtering rush lights
the stars of heaven. Efforts persisted in
to achievements train man to self-reli-
ance; and when he has proven to the
world that he can trust him. We say,
therefore, that it is unwise to deprive
young men of the advantages which result
from energetic action, by choosing" them
over obstacles which they ought to sur
mount alone. No one ever swan well
who placed his confidence in cork jack
ct; and If, when breasting the sea Of life,
we cannot buoy ourselves up and try to
force ourselves ahead by dint of our own
energies, we are not worth salvage, and it
is of little consequence whether we "sink
or swim, survive or perish"
