For rough-shod impudonce always

And "chcck" is oft the substitute
For common sense and brains.
Throw feeling heart and sympathy
Together in the ditch
And let all other aims subside
In that Of getting rich.
Since oil is plenty, dip your paws
In some Petroleum well,
Grease, whether in soft soap or wool,
Is easy stuff to sell,
But if You have debtor, rule
With Shylock's utmost power,
Require strict time, save when delay
Makes profit every hour,
Exact. like shylock, all your due,
But unlike him, take care
Lest your triumphant feet should sap
Into some lawyers snare.

Your warm zeal waxing cold,
And make the public trust spade
To shovel in your gold.

LIFE-How small portion of our
life it is that we really enjoy In youth
we are looking forward to things that
are 10 come; in old ago we are looking
backwards to things that are gone
past; in manhood, although We appear
indeed to be more occupied in things
that are present, yet even that is alb
sorbed in vague determinations TO bs
vastly happy ON some future day, when
we have time. ~ bra III

A SHORT SERMON BY PARspN BDuwx-
Low--The rebels often liken them
selves to the Prodigal Son, and think
that they should be received, like him.
on the first signs of repentance Par
son Brownlow shows up the points OF
difference very effectively. He says:
First The Prodigal Son did not
seccde; he went with his fathers con-
sent, and, as the Scriptures indicate,
with his blessing. Next, he went. he
did not stay and vilify the old man ii
his own house. He asked for some
thing to start him in the world; he
did not present pistol to the old
mans breast and demand his green
backs or watch. He received the por-
tion his father gave him; he did not
press it-a modern southern name for
stealing And, receiving it, he started
out TO seek his fortune. He did not
retire to the south side of the old
mans farm, and join n band of rohl
bers who were plundering the old man
and his law-abiding neighbors Re-
ceiying his portion, he quietly took his
journey into far country. Finally,
he repented of his folly, not because
the old man whipped him into repent
ance. but because he came to himself
and saw that he had wasted his sub
stance in riotous living He won't
back home not with murder in his
heart, hosting how many he had killed; =
threatening what he would do, but he
bowed down in honest contrition and !
asked all sorts of pardon. He didn't
return saying, 4 have fought You fou.
years and until | was overpowered,
but he went back crying, Father,
have sinned against Heaven and in
thy sight, and am no more worthy to
be called thy son. and imploringly
said Make me as one of thy hired
servants He went home because,
throughout his entire course of riotous
living, his heart was there He did
not return demanding his rights, his
property and back rents He did not
ask instant pardon upon the faith Of
an oath of amnesty, but proposed to
prove his repentance genuine by his
works. The story of the Prodigal Son
is one of sincere, deep, heartfelt and
voluntary repentance for great
wrong. Do our returning rebels come
repenting of their unparalleled crimes?
AS long as rebellion showed any signs
of success, did they show any signs of
repentance? Are they coming back
because they love the Union, or were
about to perish with hunger?' All
who return peaceably to their homes,
cultivate friendly relations, and alb
stain from hostile acts, discountenanc-
ing every attempt at disorder, should
be met with the same spirit and treat
ed with leniency. When they mani
fest hostile spirit, make them bite

The AMERICAN FOURTH or july IN PARIS.
According to " Malakof," Of the New York
Times, the American celebration Of the Fourth
in Paris was one Of the most glorious festivals
our countrymen ever enjoyed abroad. The only
drawback, he says, was the numbers OF beautiful
and elegantly dressed lad es present, who some
what distracted the patriotic thoughts Of the gen
tlemen. More than seven hundred persons re-
sponded to the invitation Of our Minister, Mr..
Bigelow. The diplomatic corps, including sew
eral former succession sympathizsrs we're present,
with d single exception. The only French people
invited we're Drouyn DE L'Huy., the Ministers
Of The Interior and Marine, who married Aneri-
can wives, and the descendants Of the French
families which aided so materially in the War Of
Independence, the Lafayettes and the Rochsm-
beaus. The proceedings, o%onsistIn; Of speeches,
followed by dancing, amusemenis for the childr,n
aud fireworks, were kept up till ten O'Clock in the
evening, from which time till three in the morn.
ing a supplementary celebration was continued by
about sixty patriotic gentlemen.

Unity Of Youngstown, after lasting over two
months, has finally come to an end, and work
has been resumed at the rate Of wages proposed

before going to work agreed to abandon the In

The proprletors contemplate another reduction
OF wages before long as a matter OF necessity.
