The Detroit Post concludes that the re-
cent disgusting exhibitions which Sena-
tors McDougall and Salisbury have made
of themselves is caused by these gentle

would suggest that it is much moro prob

1t Is now, after q close examination, de
hnitely determined by the best medical
authorities that the disease on board the
emigrant ship England was Asiatic chol-
era.
A man, supposed to be n of those who
escaped from that vessel, died in Portland,
Maine, on Tuesday, of Asiatic Cholera.
The emigrant ship Virginia, from Liv-
erpool, arrived at New York harbor on
Tuesday, with a disease on board similar
to that of the England, of which thirty
eight passengers had died.
Here are three facts in regard to the ap-
preaching pestilence. Let each eader
draw from them what conclusion he please.
Whether or not he aecept the theory that
the disease is contagious, he cannot deny
the fact that is marching rapidly towards
Us. Under these circumstances it is as
suredly time for US to be setting our house
in order, and making al speedy and as
thorough preparation for the grim disease
as is possible.

NERVOUS MES AND FAT MN
The nerves are the objects Of systematic
enmity and depreciation among mankind
at large. Fat, however it may excite
complaint in the fat person, is not, / be-
licyc, an object Of enmity, except in an
an omnibus or in some position where it
occupies an unusual portion ofthc planet
airy space. Prophetic deBunciations
against such rs be fat in Zion are on
record none against such as be nervous.
Yet the fat man is tolerated, loved, at
worst laughed at !; while the nervous man
IS not only laughed at, he is disliked.
But is If fat that has been the chief bene-
factor Of the human race? Was it fat
man that invented printing? Was it n
fat man that discovered the circulation Of
the blood? Was Gcrge Stephenson fat ?
Were the martyrs very fat men! He'll
ogabalus was, but was Antonius Julius
Caesar, though for his own selfish ends
he preferred fat men about his person.
was he fat himself? Was Hampden a
fat man Was Milton? Was Crom-
well ? Was William I1I2 No; it was
George the ". who was the fat man, and
he built the fat pavilion at Brighton
Charles james Fox was fat, but be gam
bled. Falstaf was fat, but he was not a
respectable character. Hamlet; again,
was fat; but he believed in ghosts, and
was very undecided young man. The
fattest man Of modern times is n distin-
guished undertaker-hc may make good
collins, but | am not judge of collins
On the other hand, is Mr.. Tennyson fat !?
Is Mr. John Stuart Mill fat? Is Mr..
Gladstone fat? No; the nation would
not trust its income with n fat man; it
knows better. The only fat fancier |
ever heard of was Mr.. Hudson, the rail
way king. Thus, ii is with nervous men
we trust our money, and il is from nervous
men that We expect all that makes money
worth having. Or if this statement be
too wide, let it be met by contradiction
there are plenty of contradictory people
in the world-and the other side have
too long had it all their own way-and
have too long been permitted to treat the
nervous as not miserable in themselves
but the cause of misery to others The
Argosy.

HEAvEN.-A living divine says:
"When / was a boy thought Of heaven
as great shining city with vast walls,
and domes, and spires, and with nobody
in it except white tcnuous angels who
were strangers to me. By and By my
little brother died, and l thought Of q
great city with walls, and domes, and
spires, and flock of cold, unknown an,
gels, and one little fellow that l was ac-
quainted with. He was the only one
knew in that time Then another brother
died, and there were two that | knew.
Then my acquaintances began to die, and
there two that knew. Then my ac-
quaintances began to die, and the flock
continually grew. But it was not till I
had sent one of my little children TO his
grand -parent-God-tha l began to
think | got little in myself. A second
went, third went, fourth went, and By
that time l had so many acquaintances in
heaven that did not see any more walls,
and domes, and spires, | began to think
Of the residents Of the celestial city.
And now there have so many Of my ac.
quaintances gone there, that it sometimes
seems to me that know more In heaven
than | do on earth"

The OLD MAN.-Bow low the head,

Once young like you, the vicissitudes of

tons co-equal to any you have felt-aspi-
rations crushed by disappointments as
yours are destined to be. Once that form
stalked through the scenes of pleasure,

Time withers the flowers of yesterday
has warped that figure and destroyed that
noble carriage. Once, at your age, he
possessed the thousand thoughts that
pass through your brain; now wishing

fame, anon imagining life but a dream
that the sooner he awoke from the better
But he has lived the dream very neal
through. The time to awaken is very
near at hand yet his eye kindles a

staff. But bow low your heads, boys, i

He had not gone far, however, before he
unexpectedly saw the owner coming ur

with the chicken, in order to conceal it
at last succeeded in crowding it into his
hat. But the chick having a longing fol
liberty, thrust his head up through ar
opening in the crown of Mats old straw
hat. Nat was presently accosted with
"What have you got in your hat
"Nothing but my head, /" said Nat.
"But | see chickens head sticking
through the top of it, Nat"
Nat, taking off his hat, and looking a
it in feigned astonishment, replied:
"Wall, how do you s'pose that critter
got in there? I swear he must ha
crawled up my trousers-leg."
