store in Broadway left fixtures behind him, which
he subsequently sought TO but was prevented
by the defendant the ground that all improvements
the premises left there after the of May belonged
to him. Sterling insisted removing the property,
however when fight ensued between the parties which
resulted in the complete discontinue Of the plaintiff who
not only had his hair pulled out by the roots,
but received . series Of kicks in the chest
and abdomen which brought extensive bleeding OF

On the other hand the United States telegraph compa

lines "wOrking to many Of the same points with the
other two companies" and when its lines are finished
they will reach all the principal points that
reached by the other two companies including the prn

A Writer'S Responsi bility.

He who proposes TO print bis lncu-
brations should in the first place have
something to say. and then he should
study how best to say it. No man
should write line intended to meet
the public eye who does not appreci,
ate The moral responsibility which be
incurs by that act. The tastes and
capacities of the readers of a public
Journal are as widely different as those
of the writers who cater to their lit
erary necessities and every article,
however illogical or poorly written,
strikes home somewhere, and exerts
an influence upon some one for good
or evil Your words once printed can
not be recalled. They float ont on
the great sea of humanity, whisper,
ing in thousand ready cars lessons
fraught with life or death. They raise
ripple in the boundless sea of human
thought which will expand and flow
on forever. By the very act of wri
ting you assume superior knowledge
Keep the grave responsibility steadi.
" before you, and endeavor to make
your generation wiser and more virtu
ous than it would have been if you
had not lived.

Men Find Their Own Level.

The fattery with which our assem-
bled working classes are apt to be
served, undoubtedly contributes to
keep many of them content to! make
no higher attainments. If they are
not received with open arms by the
educated and refined, they attribute it
to their occupatian. not to themselves,
to the. unreasonable pride and preju-
dice of others, and nc: to their own
deficiency. But water is not the only
thing that will find its own level.
Genius, wit, learning, ignorance, are
each attracted to its like. Two per-
sons were overheard talking in the
room where they were at work. Lord

No, no, good friend, you are in the
wrong. There is, indeed, a great gulf
between you and your early friend,
but it is hot poverty. To say that it
is, is only a way you have of flatter-
ing your selflove. For If you watch
those who frequent your friends house
you will find many a one who lives in
lodgings as plain as your own among
them. No, sir 4; it is not becanse you
work, for he is as hard worker as
you are but because, begging your
pardon you are vulgar and ignorant;
because you sit in your sitting.room
at home with your hat on and smoke
your pipe or spit tobacco juice on the
carpet or floor; because you plunge
your own knife in the butter and your
own fork in the toast, having used
both in your eating with equal free
dom because your voice is loud, your
tone swaggering, and you grammar
horrible because your two paths
from the old school house diverged

the fault is not his. You both chose.

The light and shade, the happiness
OF mans life depend upon the dispo-
sition with which be regards it. An
unailoyed contentment Of mind can
not be bought with money, it is the
golden gift Of Heaven. But it is with.
in the reach of every one to soften
himself to the rough shocks Of life.
He may receive them courageously,
sustain them patiently, and by bis
prudence alleviate or turn them aside
but even if his mind be unequal to
these exertions, it need not, as is the
case with too many, be exerted to its
own annoyance.

Be Charitable,

Try to find "everybody's BEST" the
soft. kindly, generous side. A great
many people inherit their moral and
mental twists, and it is hard to unite
these hereditary knots. They don't
see them, although to others eyes
they crop out as plain as daylight, and
it is best for all of US to shut our eyes
to them, as We do over a good many
other things beside. EVERY road
has it's own rut," Every characterer
its foibles, to 60 no deper. and it is al.
