A contributor to the Memphis Appeal
says: 1t is well known that you can not
get at the truth of anything without con-
sulting the ancients Besides the intrin-
sic merits of their thoughts, they carry
with them the immense weight OF an
tiquity. Listen to what two of the great
fathers of the church have said about
waterfalls: Clemens, of Alexandria, in

they knelt at church to receive the bless
ing. that they must be good enough to
recollect that the bened ction remained
on the wig, and did not pass through to
the wearer. Fretullian says: If you
Will not fing away your false hair, as
hateful to heaven, can not l make it hate
full to yourselves. BY reminding YOU that
the false hair you wear may have come
not only from q criminal, but from q very
dirty head; perhaps from the head of
one already damned hope that these
authorities will be conclusive.

New Definition of Freedom.

Gov. Hamilton, of Texas, in an ad-
dress to the Freedmen, delivers him elf
of new definition of Freedom Our
opinion is that the Governor would be
pleased to have some superior power
comps him to conform alone to his idea
of Freedom. as merely the right to labor
Hear the learned Governor:
. Freedom means for YOU that YOU
have the right to labor for an honest liv-
ing; the right TO obey the great com
mand of God to all men, to earn, in the
sweat of their face, their daily bread :,
the right to work for yourselves and re-
ceive the full reward of your labor
This is all that Freedom means for anv
people.
According to the above, the slaves
have been the only ones to have freedom,
while the whites of the South have been
totally neglectful of their rights, free

easily perform all the labor required to
exchange their products, and it is clear
that we have liberated two thousand
from various non productive employ
msats or functions, and added them to
the number of producers We have
more grain grown and more cloth made
more wealth created and less capacity
absorbed in pursuits which. however
necessary under certain circumstances
add nothing to the sum of human CON-
forts.
The Protection we advocate is simply
the saving of human labor We main
tain that instead of sending wool. grain
and meat from Iowa to England. and
bringing back fables in return it is
cheaper and better To bring the fabricant,
once for all, from England to Iowa or
near it, and there feed him from the pro-
duets of our generous soil. We hold
that the farmer and the manufacturer are
alike benefited by this course; and that
it insures to each fuller reward for his
labor, and a larger measure of susten-
ance and enjoyment.
Protection, then is not narrow. nor
selfish, nor exclusive. 1t does not ig-
more the brotherhood of man. nor seek
eral good. 1t socks to build up our own
country by drawing hither the better
portion of the population of Europe,
through the profer of higher wages, a
better position, and greater comfort,
than they enjoy or can expect in their

Is1poRTANT TO BUSINESS MEN-The
following from the Pittsburg Gazette, a
sketch of business housein that city,
admirably illustrates our view:
In brief interview with one of our.
most liberal patrons, a few days since, we
inquired his experience in the policy of
advertising We regard this answer as
noteworthy, and commend it to the con-
sideration Of others. He said the same
kind of business in which he is engaged
had been carried on at the same stand for
ten years by one, and nearly ten years
by another predecessor. That these men
gave diligent attention to their business,
were sober and frugal, but spent nothing
for advertising. They were just barely
able to exc out a living. That he bought
out the concern ten years ago, and begun
debtor for the whole establishment. He
felt poor, and only expended fifty dollars
per annum in each of the business papers
the first year; that subsequently he in
creased his expenses to several thousand
dollars annually for advertising, and the
result has demonstrated its marvellous
utility, and he is today worth $4,000,
and his annual profits are constantly in
creasing

one of the back towns, that had never
taken dinner before at tavern in his life.
Before his plate was dish of peppers,
and he kept looking at them; finally, as
the walters were mighty slow bringing on
things, he up with his fork, and in less
than no time soused one in his mouth.
AS he brought his grinders down on it,
the tears camo into his eyes. At last,

it down by the side of his plate, and

roar, said, "Just lie thar and COOL"

SOMEBODY.


Somebody's eyes have grown DINNER,
Off in some quaint old home,
AT morn, when the evening stars glimmer'
Watching for some one to come;
Watching, while the heart grows the sioker'
As day after day glides along,
Watching, while tears fall The thicker,
Choking the lullaby song.
Somebody, wandering over
Lands far away from his own,
Scents, as of old, the sweet clover
That grew by the old docr-stone;
Longs to go back to mingle,
AS in the dim days Of yore,
With those round the old cottage ingle,
- Those who, alas are no more.
Somebody's prayers are ascending
Ever for. dear ones away,
Prayers that His blessing attending
= May keep them from going astray;
Prayers that float nearer and nearer
The throne of the Father above,
And reaching the ear OF the Hearer,
And answered in Infinite Love.
Somebody's lifes work is ended
Patient, they wait now to go;
Long have they faithfully wended
Toilsomo paths here below
Soon the reward they'll be reaping
That to the faithful is given
.sWell donen-.Come up"-and be keeping
Watch for somebody in heaven!
Somebody ever is weeping,
Rachael-like mourning her dead,
Stunning all comfort and keeping
vigils while stars are o'erhead;
O, that such hearts, whose feeling
Shuts out the thought Of "The vill,"
Gilead's balm, with its healing,
Would come, and the wild ihrobbing still.
Somebody's heart has grown weary,
Weary OF watching for aye,
The time when the night, noM so dreary,
$ Shall end in an infinite day
When life shall roll onward forever,
AS peacefully solemn and grand
Asrolls on Eternity river,
That washes Eternity's strand
