The vicious die early. They fall like
shadows, or tumble wrecks and ruins into
the grave often while quite young, almost
before forty. 'f
sThe wicked liveth not half his days"
The world at once ratifes the truth and
assigns the reason by describing the dis
soiute life of fast men; that is, they live
fast They spend twelve hours in SIX;
getting through the whole before the
meridian, and dropping into darkness while
others are in the glory of light Their
sun goeth down while It is yet day. And
they might have helped it. Many one
dies before he need. Young men OF gen
ius, like Burns and Byron, to whom, when
dissipated and prohigate, thirty-seven is so
fatal, and your obscure and nameless wan
dering stars, who waste their time in hber-
tine indulgence-they cannot live, they
must die early. They put on steam till
they blow up the boiler. They run at
such rate that they fire goes out for want
of fuel. The machinery is DESTROYED by
rapid speed and reckless wear. Nothing
can save them. Their physical system
cannot stand the strain they put to it;
while the state of their mind is often such
that the soul would eat the substance OF
the most robust body, and make for itself
way of escape from the incessant hell OF
| its own thoughts.

PALmERsroN AND LINCOLN.

Hardly had the late President been
consigned to the grave, when the prime
minister of England died, full of years
and honors Palmerstoh traced his hne-
age to the time of the conqueror; Lin
ccln went back only to his grandfather
Palmerston received his education from
the best scholars of Harrow, Edinburg
and Cambridge; Lincoln's early teachers
were the silent forest, the prairie, the river
and the stars. Palmerston was in public
life for sixty years; Lincoln but tenth OF
that time. Palmerston was skillful guide
of an established aristocracy; Lincoln a
leader, OF rather companion of the peo-
pie. Palmerston was exclusively an Eng
lishman, and made his boast in the House
of Commons that the interest of England
was his Shibboleth; Lincoln thought al
ways of mankind as well as his own coun-
try, and served human nature itself. Pal
merston, from his narrowness as an Eng
hshman, did not endear his country to
any one court or to any one people, but
rather caused uneasiness and dislike; Lin
coin left America more beloved than ever
by all the peoples of Europe. Palmers-
ton was self-possessed and adroit in recon
cling the conflicting claims of the factions
of the aristocracy; Lincoln, frank and in
genueus, knew how to poise himself on
the conflicting opinions of the people
Palmerston was capable of insolence to-
ward the weak quick to the sense of hon
or, not heedful of right; Lincoln rejected
counsel given only as matter of policy,
and was not capable Of being wilfully un-
Just Palmerston, essentially superficial,
delighted in banter, and knew how to d.
vert grave opposition by playful leyity.-
Lincoln was man of infinite jest on his
lips, with saddest earnestness at his heart
Palmerston was a fair representative of
the aristocratic hberality of the day, ,choos-
ing for his tribunal not the conscience of
humanity, but the House of Commons;
Lincoln took to heart the eternal truths Of
liberty, obeyed them as the commands of
Providence, and accepted the human race
as the Judge of his fidelity. Palmerston
did nothing that will endure; his great
achievement the separation of Belgium,
placed that little kingdom where it must
gravitate to France. Lincoln finished a
work which all time cannot overthrow. =
Palmerston is a shining example of the
ablest of cultivated aristocracy; Lincoln
shows the genuine fruits Of institutions
where the laboring man shares and assists
to form the great ideas and designs of his
country. Palmerston was buried in
Westminster Abby by the order of his
queen, and was followed by the British
aristocracy to his grave, which after few
years will hardly be noticed by the side of
Fox and Chatham; Lincoln was followed
by the sorrow of his country across the
continent to his resting place in the heart
of the Mississippi valley, to be remember
ed through al time by his countrymen,
and by all the peoples of the world

THE WOODEN END OF THE BOARD.

THE WOODEN END OF THE BOARD
General Banks in Congress recently told
the following story: ~ Etss 4
''When l was younger than l am, il
in the state of New Hampshire, in the
town of Nashua, where Iobtained my ed
ucation at a university with belfry al
the top and water-wheel under the lower
stories laughter, looking out with my as
sociates and fellow students upon the
smooth and CLASSY surface of the Merri.
mack river, that stream of perpetual beau.
ty and perpetual life, we saw colored boy
intimately known 70 us, upon the surface,
engaged in the pleasant exercise of skat-
ing, for it was winter. While we looked
upon the beautiful Merrimack, the little
negro boy suddenly went in. You may
never have seen negro under such cir
cumstances.
tWe went down to him with all the
speed possible. Going out to the middle
Of the river we took up plank and hand
ed it to the negro, and he grasped it with
as much alacrity as any one of them will
take ballot when we give it to him.
Just as we had got it on the hole into
which he had fallen, he fell off the plank
and went in again. The second time he
came up he wore an expression never
shall forget Youms never have seen a
negro under such circumstances
''He was speechless, his emotions sup
pressed ali rhetoric; he did not indulge in
any eloquence at all He grasped the
plank this time, not with alacrity, but with
ferocity, and we brought him again to the
surface. We thought he was negro saw
ed from the jaws of death; but off the
little fellow slipped again and went down.
You may never have seen negro under
such circumstances. -
"He addressed US speech, and l never
heard speech that contained so much OF
touching eloquence as was embodied in
that little negro's speech. please glib dis
nigger de sOooden end of dat board You
see the end we had given him was the icy
end. 1t was the same icy end that the
southern people have been holding out to
him for two hundred years. He was en-
tirely satisfied that the wooden end was
the best.
"Now, sir, what we propose for the negro
in this country is, to give him the wooden
end of the board. He had the icy end of
it more than two centuries. The desola-
ton Of more than moral retribution has
come upon the men who extended to him
the icy end of the board, and come upon
them justly. l wish now to give him the
wooden end Of the board. He willFre-
reive from that act of justice the same Joy
which that little negro experienced"

A COLD IN THE HEAD.

S A DR.. Palion, of St. Foy, France has
discovered new method of curing cold in
the head. Herewith is the prescription:
1t consists in inhaling through the nose
the emanations of ammonia contained in a
smelling bottle. If the sense ST smell is
completely obliterated, the bottle should
be kept under the nose until the pungen-
cy of the volatile alkali is felt. The bot
tie is then removed, only to be reapplied
after a minute; the second application,
however, should not be long, that the pa
tent may bear it. This easy operation be-
ing repeated seven or eight times in the
course of five minutes, but always very
rapidly, except the first time. The nos
trils become free, the sense of smell is re-
stored, and the secretion of the irritating
mucus is stopped. This remedy is said
to be peculiarly advantageous to singers.
