became and how he is reverenced. Fer
guson, feeding his sheep on the hills of
Scotland picked up the rudiments of learn

first astronomers in Europe, Herschell,
the great astronomer, was in youth drum

ceived but little more than drummer boys

the brightest discoveries of science, and is
borne by the planet that his zeal discovered

by properly improving the small and per,

An AUTHENTIC ANEcDorE. Talleyrand was

AN AUTHENTIC ANEcDorE Talleyrand was
once in the company Of Madame de Stael
and another eminent French lady, whose
name we do not remember.
"You say charming things to both of us, y
said Madame de Stael to him which do
you like best?"
The willy statesman artfully replied that
he was delighted with both.
"Ah but you prefer one of u.s." contin
ued Madame de Stael: suppose we were
both drowning in the Seine tonight, which
of us would you help first ?"
a would extend my right hand to Mad
anne de Stael, and my left hand to Madame

'Yes; but suppose only one of us could
be saved, which would you attempt to res

its severest test, but not whit discompos

The MIsERIEs OF Rich MAN.-The New
York correspondent of the Rochester Demo-
crat is responsible for the following:
alexander T. Stewart clears one thous-
and dollars per day, Sabbaths excepted, all
the year round. Cornelius Vanderbilt pleads
to double that sum, while William B. Astor
rates his income at four thousand three hul-
dred and thirty dollars par diem Sleeping
or waking, the latter gentleman finds a
three dollar bill dropping into his hat every
minute of the twentyfour hours He can
not sit down to talk with his physician
without having little more wealth ifno
health ; he cannot unburden his mind for
ten minutes without feeling the burden in
creasing into his pocket, and he can't walk
Broadway however the weather may be,
without meeting a shower of money. At
every turn cash stares him in the face in
the most insolent manner. Banks fling
their dividends at his head ruthless fnan-
clers beat him with coupons IMPLYING
and soulless corporations dump their filthy
lucre at his door step, and contemptuous
bill stickers plaster his house with green
backs. One might inquire what the fellow
has done to merit this treatment, and the
only charge that can be brought is that he
was rich mans son, and therefore must

THE WORKING.

The noblest men l know on earth
Are men whose hands are brown with toll
Who, backed by no ancestral graves,
Hew down the wood, and till the soil;
And win thereby prouder name
Than follows king or warriors fame.
The working men, whate'er the task,
Who carve the stone, or bear the hod,
They bear upon their honest brows
The royal stamp and seal of God
And worthier are the drops of sweat
Than diamonds in a coronet.
God bless the noble working men,
Who rear the cities of the plain,
Who dig the mines, who build the ships
And drive the commerce of the main;
God bless them for their toiling hands
Have wrought the glory of all lands.

OVER THE WAY.

Gone in her child-like purity
ont from the golden day;
T. lin, away in the light SO sweet,
Trs.rs the silver stars and the sunbeams meet,
Paving a way for her waxen feet,
Over the silent way.
Over the bosom tenderly
The pearl-white hands are pressed;
rta lasbes lie on her cheeks so thin
nr..r. the softest blush of the rose hath been
shifting the blue of her eye within,
The pure lids closed to rest.
Over the sweet brow lovingly
Twineth her sunny hair;
She WIS so fragile that love sent down,
From lis heavenly gems, that soft crown,
To shade her brow with its waves so brown,
Light as the dimpling air.
Gone to sleep with tender smile
Froze on her silent lips;
rrtbe farewell kiss of her dewy breath,
Cold in the clasp of the angel death,
Like the last fair bud of faded wreath,
Whose bloom the white-frost nips.
Robin-hushed in your downy bed
Over the swinging bough-
DO YOU miss hervoice from youc glad duet,
When the dew in the heart Of the rose is set,
Til its velvet lips with the essence wet
In orient crimson glow?
Rosebud under your shady leaf
Hid from the sunny day
p. you miss the glance Of her eye so bright,
Whose bue was heaven to your timid sight
It's belming now amid world of light,
Over the starry way.
Hyarts-where the d.rling's head hath lain,
Held by loves shining ray
D,yor lsnow that the touch of her gentle hand,
Doth brighten the harp in the unknown land?
Oh, she waits for US with the angel band
Over the starry way
