Happiness.

Happiness is to be attained in the
accustomed chair, by the fireside,
more than in the honorary occupation
of civic Office, ina wife's love, infinite
ly more than in the favor of all human
beings else in children's innocent and
joyous prattle, more than in the hear
ing of fattery in the reciprocation
of little and frequent kindness of
friends, more than in some occasional
dearly bought indulgence /; in the vir-
tue of contentment, more than in the
anxious achievements of wealth and
distinction and grandeur in change of
circumstances in full, firm trust in
Providence more than in fortunes fa-
vor in a growing taste for the beau
ties of nature, more than in the fee
simple inheritance of whole acres of
land in the observance of neatness
and regularity and household virtues,
rather than in the means of ostenta-
tious, and therefore, rare displays /; in
hand-maiden's cheerfn.ness more than
in the improved tone of politics and
in the friendship of our next door
neighbor, more than in the condescend-
ing notice of my Lord Duke.

How to Become Unhappy.

In the first place, if you want to be
miserable, be selfish. Think all the
time of yourself, and of your own
things. Don't care about any body
else. Have no feeling for any one
but yourself. Never think of enjoy
ing the satisfaction of seeing others
happy; but rather if you see a smi-
ling face, be jealous, lest another
should enjoy what you have not En-
Wy all who are better off in any res
pect than yourself; think unkindly
toward them, and speak slightly Of
them. BE constantly afraid lest some
should encroach upon your rights be
watchful against it, and if any one
comes near you snap at him like mad
dog. Contend earnestly for every
thing that is your own, though it may
not be worth pin; for your rights F"
are just as much concerned as if it
were pound of gold Never yield
a point. BE very sensitive, and take
everything that is said to you in play
fulness in the most serious manner.
BE jealous Of your friends, lest they
should not think enough Of you; and
if at any time they should seem to neg
lect you, put the worst construction
upon their conduct you can.

Hasty Marriage.

There is no city, there is scarcely a
township, which does not number
among it's inhabitants women who
have married on very short acquaint-
ance, only to be abused, deserted, and
left live-long sorrow in the families
which they imprudently and improper
ly deserted to share the fortunes of
relative strangers. If young ladies'
would only realize how grossly indel-
icate, as well as culpably reckless
such marriages appear to the eyes of
the observing, they would surely for
bear. A years thorough acquaint-
ance, with the most circumstantial ac-
counts, from disintcrested and reliable
witnesses, of the antecedents, from
childhood. arc the very least guaran-
tees which any woman who realizes
what marriage is, will require of a
stranger. Even then, if her parents
are not fully satisfied, as well as her.
self, she should still hesitate. Mar

A peace full of honor and Joy, crease,
Whose treasures shall still in the future in
And no traitor shall ever destroy.
These lovers of peace would assail the base foe
Within our own borders in arms,
Destroy the last traitor their cause overthrow
And secure us from wars fierce alarms.
Or invite them to come like wanderers home,
Confessing their sins dark and dire,
Forsake the foul leaders who have lured them
to roam
From the ranks of Secession retire.
But peace is desired, and peace they would
gain,
II we must through the shedding of blood,
And peace we must conquer, though the
tears fall like rain
Though we march through the tempest and
flood.
There are traitors who clamor for a cowardly
peace,
A peace fraught with insult and shame,
A respite from conflict that shortly would cease
Or exist but in semblance or name.
They would part with their birthright, like
Esau of old,
For recompense WORTHLESS and vile
Would SOW seeds OF dlScOTu ana soTroW uhtoiu
And the deeds of our fathers revile.
Base traitors are they, and cowardly too,
Who would show the white feather now,
But we know that whatever the copperheads do
Well never to rebeldom bow.
With God for our refuge we never will fear
For we know that the right will prevail
We will cling to our banner so bright and SO
dear,
Press onward and never say fail
