MIsERIES OF MILLInNAIREs.

Under this heading the n Y. Sunday
Times reads forcible homily upon the
idea that all is not gold that glit{ers. and
that the man who has made his pile has
not IN consequence sowed contentment
among his days. The Times in illustra-
ton gives three plctures-a triune of
wealth-in the following sitting:
Look at VIM. B. Astor, as he slowly
and with automatic gait moves along
Broadway, glancing neither to the right
or the left, and evidently deeply immersed
IN mental arithmetic. Manifestly, he is
the oppressed "pack-horse" of his own
great affairs "a being that might have
tripped gaily through the world with a
light heart and thin pair of breeches.
had he not been pet of Plutus; but who,
as 1t IS, stoops under a weight of rent
roll and bond and mortgage, almost too
heavy for elderly humanity to bear. I'm
fortunate financial Atlas, with a world of
wealth up N his shoulders, and care and
anxiety, sitting like twin incubi, perched
upon its top, how we pity him! And yet
such IS the effect of habit in reconciling
and even attaching man to his burdens,
that he, would be more likely to denounce
than thank US, should we philanthropic-
ally offer to ease him of part of his.
Commodore Vanderbilt seems to have
more backbone than Mr.. Astor, and bears
his S4O O,OUO,U00 with porter-like pluck
We say 40,000,00O, because Mr.. Parton,
his biographer, appraised his real and
personal at that sum. We fancy Mr..
P. s figures little over the mark, but
the Commodore is nevertheless a very
solid man, and will no doubt 'cut up
handsome
Alexander T. Stewart, who is, we pre-
sumo, about as far advanced in the mil
lions as the Commodore, always appears
to us to be working out complicated sums
in compound interest as he walks the
streets. Although a lightning calculator,
he is (in public, at least) the most unde-
monstrative of men. We are quite sure
that making money is to him a sedative
and not an excitant. Are we mistaken
in supposing that he was merrier and
happier years ago as a clerk than he now
is as the controller of say FIVE and twenty
millions?

saw little child, with evening prayer uusaid,
Stand weeping; and her little bosom heaFed
With signs that touched my heart.
With burning eyes upraised, and lifted finger
Pointing where cold form lay all motionless:
Irecognized her mother sad ehild-alone
Ny lips were dumb.
But too well knew the cold worlds wounds
For her in treasure. Yet, from my silent heart
Went up this prayer, Sheider Of nOtheress orphans
Temper earth's storms to this shorn lamb.
If her home lies desolate, forsaken-
Nav her hearts home be yonder
With sainted mother, Heaven, and Thee.
The answer came, can Is we'll"
And had rest.
The walls Of yon closely -curtained chamber,
White and cold the lips or profered love,
Echo to the first outburst Of maiden grief
Alonel alone echOes-re-echOes-ech
Through her grief-torn heart
Lookl she kneelsi allegiance higher,
Holier she gives to Hin-to God.

Would cling too closely to earth's idols,
Thou in lore hast called him home
Not my will but thine be done-' "

Surely all that heart could wish of earth is there
Then why those looks of horror,
And those griefs which cannot be consoleds

And now IL view of chastened ones,
I say with Elisha of old, 'fLo, all these things
WOrketh God oftentimes with man,
To bring back his soul from the pitt
If earth's sweeter joys would clog my soul,
And bar upward flight to heaven;

To Him who gave, and bless Him more:
Then walk alone.
Let me be motherless friendless,
But-let me not, when dying,
Die ALONE

DO IT RrrH THY NIGHT.

Fortune, success, fame, position, are
never gained but by piously, determined
ly, bravely sticking, growing, living to a
thing till it is fairly accomplished. In
short, you must carry thing through, if
you want to be anybody or anything. No
matter if it does cost you the pleasure,
the society, the thousand pearly gratifca-
tions of life. No matter for these
Stick to thing and carry it through. Be
lieve you were made for the matter, and
that no one else can do it. Put forth
your whole energies. Stir, wake, cleo
trify yourself, and go forth to the task
Only once learn to carry thing through
in all completeness and proportion, and
you will become hero. You will think
better of yourself-others will think bet
ter of you. OF course they will. The
world in its very heart admires the stern,
determined doer. It sees in him its best
sight, It's brightest object, its richest
treasure. Drive right along, then, in
whatever you undertake. Consider your
self amply sufficient for the deed You'll
be successful. Never fear

the CHANGE FROM SOLDIER TO CITIZEN.

Our soldiers who have so lately thrown
off the Army Blue and made such an on
slaught on the dealers in summer cloth
ing. and our citizens who have witnessed
the safe, quiet and rapid transition from
soldier to citizen, in act and word as we'll
as in dress, can appreciate the truth as
we'll as the poetry of the following extract
from an article in the Chicago Journal
And when the blue gets home, how
soon it melts away into the motley wear
of citizenship You looked away to our
Southern horizon, little while ago, and
it was as blue as the sky. But like that
skv at nearer view, the tint is lost. You
meet a man to day, straight from the
crumbled Front, ''as the crow hles;' he IS
cerulean and redo!ent of smoky camp
and dusty march; he stalks off easily un-
der kuapsack blanket and gun; he Is bal
anced and trimmed with eanteen and haV-
ersack, and the inevitable tin cup swings
like Jolly boat astern. You meet him
tomorrow, and he has shed the soldier
altogether; he has doffed the garment OF
dark woolen, for what, in camp parlance
Is a ''boiled shirt" white, linen and civ
iIized. his Jacket has changed color, and
what a length of tail behind The "whisk-
cred pandour" has lost the beard ripened
and bleaohed to about the color Of broom
corn. by the suns of Georgia, Virginia
and a pair of Carolinas. He has stepped
back into his old self in twinkling; has
exchanged the might of the bullet for the
right of the ballot, aud is your neighbol
and ours, and as peaceful as Chaldear
Shepherd. And it is we'll and gracefully
done Yet a few days, and the returning
troops will be absorbed into the general
circulation, and the pulses of agriculture
commerce and the arts will be al the
stronger and steadier for their coming.

FoUR GOOD HABITs.

There were four good habits a wise
man recommended in his counsels, and
which he considered to be essentially
necessary for the management of tempor-
al concerns, and those are-punctuality,
accuracy, steadiness, and Dispatch
Without the first of these, time is wasted;
without the second, mistakes the most hurt
full to our credit and interest and that of
others may be committed; without the
third, nothing can be we'll done; and without
the fourth. opportunities of great advan-

The Dubuque Times, after noticing the
we'll known fact that whisky is a sure
cure for snake bites, says it is also a pre-
ventive for hydrophobia. 1t gives the
instance of little girl of that city, five
years Of age, who was bitten by mad
dog. The physician prescribed whisky.
She drank a pint before she was in the
least intoxicated. 1t is popularity of
the remedy that the whisky does not
affect the healthy part of the person un-
til the poison is neutralized.

nEposE OF MANNER.

Gentleness in the gait is what simplici-
ty is in the dress. Violent gesture or
quick movement inspires involuntary dis
respect. One looks for a moment at a
cascade-but one sits for hours lost in
thought, and gazing upon the still waters
of a lake. A deliberate gait, gentle
manner, and a gracious tone Of voice-a!l
of which may be aequired--give medi-
oere man an immense advantage over
those vastly superior to him. To be
bodily tranquil, to speak little, and to di-
gest without effort, are absolutely neces-
sary to grandeur of mind or of presence,
or to proper development of genius

THE CKNIC.

The cynic is one who never sees a good
quality in man, and never fails to see a
bad one He is the human owl, Yigilant
in darkness and blind to light, mousing
for vermin, and never seeing noble game.
The cynic puts all human actions into
only two classes openly bad and secretly
bad. All virtue, and generosity, and dis
interestdeness, are merely the appearance
of good, -but-selfsh at the bottom. He
holds that no man does good thing ex-
cept for profit The effect of his con
versation upon your feelings is to chill
and scar them; to send you away sore
and morose. His criticisms and inuen-
does fall unfortunately upon every
lovely thing, like frost upon flowers.
