well satisfied with his experiment of liv-
ing according to his means, to suit him
self, not other people-to crafty his own
tastes consistently with his circumstances,
not. to please other people consistently
with their extravagant notions.
On New Years day Mrs. Farley re-
ceiyed pain gold ring, inside of which
were engraved these words: Our ne,o
ledf--pay as yoa, CO."
The once broken merchant has found
this profitable motto. He is now able
to pay as he goes, and, at the same time,
make his wife more costly New Years
gift than the dress and the bonnet which
the money of the usurer bought.
To those who would turn over a new
leaf on next New Years day, I recon-
mend the merchants motto, pay as you
go; it will never allow duns to perplex
nor bailiffs to harass you compared with
the man or woman who runs up bills at
the grocery, the store or the bakeshop
or who indulges fancy in any particular,
on credit-you will be most happily indie
pendent.

Thoughts of Thee.
BIT S. N. HARPER.

II may be so, my dearest ene,.
That We shall never meet again,
Still in my heart hold thee dear,
And there thine image shall remain,
When am Ear away from thee,
And other friends around thee glide
Say, wilt thou ever think of me,
And wish me once more by thy side
The sweetest hours I ever knew
Were those, dear onel spent with thee
Fond memory, to her promise true,
Will often bring them back TO me;
Then how can regret the day, -
Sweet one, when first we fondly met
Each flower that blooms along my way
Forbids that should e'er ferget.

Paw AS you GO.
A STORY FOR THE NEW YEAR.
BY wM. T. ooaGEsHALL.

There is not quite as much originality
as there is prejudice in the world, else
men and women would not so often be led
into extravaganza and difficulty by the
example of others. Too many people are
prone to do as their neighbors, simply
because said neighbors have numerous
servants, own front pew in fashiona-
BILE church aud ride in handsome car
riage. 1t is very well that we should i'm
ltate our neighbors when they do right
but, unfortunately, we are oftener in
clined to pattern after their coats. or the
taking style of their bonnets, than to i'm
itate their social excellence or private
virtues.
Many times the passion to look as well
as other people is encouraged at the ex
pense of more important matters. Then,
as poor Richard says in his almanac, "wc
pay too dear for the WHISTLE

man in every community. There can be

than the opening of new year. rii
know man who, on New Years day,
(1854), turned over new leaf, which has
proved of great profit to him.
He was young merchant. His store
had been opened hut few months and,
as he was doing good business, he could
afford to be quite liberal in his house
hold. His wife had as pretty home as
any young merchants In the city, and she
bad as pretty dresses as any woman on
the street where she lived. and she took
great delight in the consciousness of the
fact that she was pretty and prettily at
| tired so did her husband
There was some talk that the wife was
little extravagant,a but it did not affect
the merchants business, and the number
of her admirers continued to Increase.
The pretty little woman had SO many
pretty things, that it would have been I
Igreat pity for her to stay at home all tn,
time, and show them only to her hus
band. She was of benevolent turn o.
mind, and, consequently, she desired tina
other people should take pleasure in then
as we'll as be. So she went frequently t
J balls and concerts. .~es5
The season advanced winter set in
business became dull and money wa
scarce, but balls, and parties, and con
certs were numerous, and to all the bes
went the young merchant and his prett
wife. They made fashionable friends
and there were inviting suppers given a
! their house.
| As the New. Year drew nigh, Mr.. Far
ley began to realize pressure in tn
money market He would have bee
glad to reduce his current expenses, but
oh, itwoHld break his wife's heart to de

The pretty wife sat beside her husban

THE NATURE OF AN OATH Where

Live with mother
Where does your mother liver
.:She lives with father

goes round the room.
They live't home
Where in the thunder's their home p

That's schere Tn, from r says the boy,

The stranger ON the sill.


"a ~ BY THOMAS BUCHANAN READ.
Between broad fields Of wheat and corn
Is the lonely home where was born;
The peach-tree leans agains the wall,
And the woodbine wanders over all;
There is the shaded doorway still,
But strangers foot has crossed the sill.
There is the barn--and, as Of you're,
can smell the hay from the open door,
And see the busy swallows throng.
And hear the peewee's mournful song;
But the stranger comes-ohi painful proof
His sheaves are piled to the heated roof.
There is the orchard-the very trees
Where my childhood knew long hours of ease
And watched the shadowy moments run,
Till my life has imbibed more shade than sun,
The swing from the bough still sweeps the air
Bat the strangers children are swinging there.
There bubbles the shady spring below.
WithEts bulrush brook where the hazels grow
Twas there found the calmus root,
And watched the minnows roise and shoot,
And heard the robin lave his wing
But the strangers bucket is at the spring.
Oh, ye who daily cross the sill,
Step lightly, for / love it still;
And when you crowd the old barn caves,
Then think what countless harvest sheaves
Have passed within that scented door
To gladden. eyes that are no more.
Deal kindly with these orchard trees;
And when your children crowd their knees,
Their sweetest fruit they shall impart,
As if old memories stirred their heart.
To youthful sport still leave the swing,
And in sweet reverence hold the spring.
The barn, the trees, the brook, the birds,
The meadows with their lowing herds,
The woodbine on the cottage wall
My heart still fingers with them all.
Ye strangers on my native sill,
Step lightly, for love it still.

'STRAIaHrouT DoCTRINE.-Misa Dick
inson, in late lecture in New York uses
the following language. It no doubt ex-
presses the sentiment of the entire lead
ership of the Republican party, though
all are not SO honest and bold In its ex-
pressisn:
She considered that the blaokness Of
the negro was in fact the only reason for
denying him the right of suffrage. The
ignorant and degraded Irish, whe compose
the rank and file of the disloyal party,
were no more capable of exercising the
right than the negroes, who must be per-
nitted to vote to counteract the pernicious
influence of the former class. Patriot
ism and loyalty lift all men, whatever
may be their color, to the same height,
side By side. The white and the black have
marched into the Southern land, keeping
step to the music Of the Union, and side
by side they shall vote as they have
fought.

THE GREAT MYSTERY The body is
to die. No one who passed the charmed
boundary comes back to tell The i'm
agination visits the realms Of shadows
sent out from some window in the soul
over life's restless waters, but brings its
way wearily back, with no olive leaf in
its beak as a token of emerging life, be-
yoad the closely bending horizon The
great sun comes and goes in the heaven,
yet breathes no secret of the ETHEREAL
wilderness. The crescent moon eleaves
her nightly passage across the upper
deep. bat tosses overheard no signals.--
The sentinel stars challeHge each other as
they walk their nightly rounds, but We
catch no syllable of their countersign
which gives passage to the heavenly camp.
j Between this and the ether life there is
I great gulf fixed, across which neither
1 foot nor eye can travel. The gentle
j friend whose eyes We closed in their last
tsleep long years ago, died with rapture
in her wonder-stricken eyes, a smile Of
! ineffable joy upon her lips, and hands
j folded over triumphant heart. but her
j lips were past speech, and intimated
nothing of the vision that enthralled her.
