B% A talkative and boastful

~ A talkative and boastful
member ofthe Minnesota legislature,
while decanting to his constituents
upon the great things he would have
done for their interests at the pre-
vious session of the Legislative body,
if he had only had a fair chance, &C.,
declared that on several occasions he
had "struggled for the floor" in
vain, and that at last, when he got
the floor, he found it impossible to
"catch the speakers eye Couldn't
ketch his eye!" exclaimed an old
trapper in the crowd. "You jes'
take one O my mink traps with you
next time, and I'll warrant you to
ketch his eye the very fust snap"

SELF-DENIAL.-There are many
seasons in a mans life, and the more
exalted and responsible his station
the more frequently do those seasons
rccur, when the voice of duty and
the dictates of feeling are opposed
to each other; and it is only the
weak and the wicked who yield that
obedience to the selfish impulses of
the heart, which is due to reason aud
honor,
Washington standard. [volume] (Olympia, Wash. Territory) 1860-1921, 1866-02-17

MAx1Ms.-Without danger, dan.
ger cannot be surMounted. With
the humble there is perpetual peace.
Wit once bought is worth twice
taught. Words may pass, but blows
fall heavy. Yielding tempers pacify
resen .monts. Youth is the season
for improvement. Zeno, of all vir-
tues, made his choice of silence.

The PRESIDENT AND HIS POLITICs.
According to the New York 7ri-
bune, "The President informed Dean
Richmond. before the New York
election that he should in no wise
interfere with New York politics !;
that he considered himself pledged
to no party, and that only those who
approved of his present policy could
be regarded as his friends. lie fur
ther Stated that the policy Of recon-
struction which he is now pursuing
is not an experiment, but the set.
tied course which he has determined
to carry out without reference to the
wishes of any party"

SINGULAR WORK OF SKIaL.-A
Philadelphian named Swander has
produced two remarkable specimens
Of pen portraiturc. The one is a
copy of the Declaration of Indepcn.
dence, written with such variations
OF light and heavy strokes as to en-
body a phantom likeness of Wash
ington, the whole being surrounded
by clever limitations Of the original
signatures; the other giving the
Emancipation Proclamation in a
manuscript which discloses sha low
portrait of President Lincoln. The
figures can be recognized at glance
and yet the picture is formed entire
ly by the size and arrangement of
the written words, with the excep.
ton of some slight shading about the
eyes, nose and mouth.

AusUsTK BEIxoxT.-A good-eory
is tod Of this prominent New York
banker and politician. He Is .
somewhat passionate man, and con-
siderably profane. Once he had .
confidential clerk, at whom he blaxed
away one morning at q fearful rate.
The man listened quietly till Bel
mont got through, and then said be.
would not stay and be sworn at,
though he was poor man. Bel
mont asked the clerk what he would
remain for and let him talk as he
pleased. After thinking of tho mat
ter, short time, the man said that
if the salary were Increased from
twenty-five hundred to four thous-
and dollars, he could stand it. "You
shall have it," said Belmont, and the
tradition goes not only that he gave
the man the money, but never cursed
him again at ALL.

Tea grows al the wxy from the
coast TO 81 north lzrIfRde- The
best districts, however, arc between
% and 81. Both black and green
teas can be made from the same
shrub, the difference consisting in
the longer process and more thor
ough manipulation given to the
black. OF course that which. is arti-
ficially colorcd is an exception.
Most OF the tea farms are small,
and the merchants collect their stock
from the country and forward it in
fiat boats down the rivers to mar
kets on the coast. The Chinese au-
thors consider tea as a cooling bev-
erage, and it is not uncommon for
the country people to use ginger and
salt to counteract this property.
Many attempts have been made to
introduce it into this aud other coun-
tries, but the cheapncss of labor in
China will render competition in
prices out of the question, and it is
probable the Celcstials, if they do
not exterminate themselves in their
interminable rebellions, will continue
to supply the world with tea for
many years to come. 1t is not i'm
possible, however, that California,
which is so well adapted to nearly ev-
cry product of the old world, may,
with the increase of its Chinese pop
ulation, also raise tea for the market,
but at present the coolie finds other
pursuits more rcmunerativc.
THIS BEAUTIFUL WoRLD.-Ah !
this beautiful world Indeed, we
know not what to think oft. Some.
times it is all gladness and sunshine,
and heaven itself lies not fur off:
And then it changes suddenly, and
is dark and sorrowful, and the clouds
shut out the sky. In the lives of
the saddest of us there are bright
DAYS like this, when we feel as if we
could take the world in our arms.
Then come the gloomy hours, when
the fire will neither burn in our
hearts nor on our hearths; and all
without and within is dismal, cold,
and dark. Every hear: has it's
secret sorrows, and oftentimes we
call man cold when he is only
sad.
