The vicious die early. They fall ike
shadows or tumble wrecks and ruins into
the graye-often when quite young, almost
always before forty. .;The wicked liyeth
not half his days. The world at once
rstities the truth and assignes the reason,
by describing the dissolNte life of s4aat
nien;" that is they, live fast-they spend
twelve hours in six getting through the
whole before the meridian, and dropping
into darkness while others are in the glory
of light "Their sun goeth down while it
Is day Aud they might have helped it.
Many one dies before he need. Young
men of genius like Burns and Byron, To
whom, when dissipated and profigate, 81
years is fatal, and your obscure aud name
less wandering stars, who waste their tlne
inlibertine iadalgence-thsy cannot hive,
they must die early, They put on steam
till they blow up the boiler. They run at
such rate that the fire goes out for want
of fuel. The machinery is destroyed by
rapid speed and reckless wear, Nothing
can save them. pheir physical system
cannot stand the strain they put it to,
while the state Of their mind is often such
that the soul would eat the substance of
the most robust body and make for itself
a way of escape from the incessant hell of
its own thoughts.

WORK AND INyRENrION.

Mr. Mill tells US in his Political Ecouo-
my, that the labor saving inventions of
modern time have not yet lessened the
daily labor Of mankind. The steam an
.gine does the work of about one thousand
millions of men-snd this inconceiysble
addition to the worlds working force has
all been acquired in ninety years; vet no
man finds his days work diminished by
it. On the contrary, we work harder
than we did ninety years ago, and hard
est where there are most steam engines.
The farmer, on our western prsries, BY the
aid of the moving machine, gets in, in
one week, crop which his father could
not have got in by working till the grain
dropped over-tipe from ths straw; and
then ne thrashes in six hours, more than
his father could have failed out in whole
winter. But he works harder than his
father did, winter and summer, Ladies
have made the same remark upon the
sewing machine; they can sew at a pace
that would have made their grandmothers
gasp to see, but their sewing is never any
nearer done than it was when they set ey-
cry stitch by hand. .i h. -
We believe il will be so to the end Of
the chapter. We do not believe that any
possible development Of invention will ey-
er much lesson the amount of human toll.
AS long as the world stands, we think the
world will require, for carrying on its busi-
ness, its entire daily revenue Of force.
Fremont journal. [volume] (Fremont, Sandusky County [Ohio]) 1853-1866, 1865-11-17

With delight the Devil heard of the sue
cess of his faithful emInissary, and sent
her word that if she would meet him at
the end of the lane at certain time, he
would pay her the shoes.
At the appointed time she repaired to
the spot, and found the Devil at the place.
He put the shoes on the end of long pole,
and standing on the opposite side of the
fence, handed them over to her. She was
very much pleased with them they were
such nice ones. 'nf,D
"But there is one thing, Mr.. Devil, that
| would ike to have explained, and that is,
why do you hand the shoes to me on the
end of a pole9'
'That is very easy explained" he re-
piled; .'any one who has the cunning and
meanness to do as you have done, does
not get within twenty.feet of me-"
So saying, he fed in terror.
After while the old bag died, and
when she applied for admittance to the
lower regions, the Devil would not let her
in, for fear she might dethrone him, she
being SO much his superior. So the old
woman is compelled to wander over the
world, creating strife and quarrels in peace
full families and neighborhoods.
Would you know her name?
1t is Madame Scandal. When she died,
the young Scandalizers, her children, were
left orphans, but the Devil, in considera-
ton Of past services rendered by their
mother, adopted them; and so you see,
he is the father of that large class called
scandalmongers.

When the buds of April blossomed and the
birds OF spring time sung.
The gardens brightest glories by summer suns
are nursed,
But, Oh the sweet sweet violets, the flowers
that opened first!
There is no place like the old place where you
and l were born,
Where we lifted first our eyelids ON the splend-
ors of the morn,
From the milk-white breast that warmed us,
from the clinging arms that bore,
Where the dear eyes glistened DER us that will
look on US no more!
There is no friend like the old friend who has
shared our morning days
No greeting like his welcome, no hOmDge like
his praise;
Fame is the scentless sunfower, with guady
crown of gold
But friendship is the breathing rose, with
sweets in every fold.
There is no love like the old love that we court
ed in our pride;
Though our leaves are falling, falling, and we
are fading side by side,
There are blossoms all around us with the col
ors of our dawn,
And we live in borrowed sunshine when the
light of day is gone. s kt ~
There are no times like the old times, they
shall never be forgot
There is no place like the old place, keep
/, green the dear old spotl G1 is5yi4sf
There are no friends like our old friends,-may
Heaven prolong their lives! }f
There are no loves like our old loves,
bless our loving wives!
