Sing away your Grief

We can sing our cares away easier than
we can reason them away. Sing in the
morning. The birds are the earliest to
sing, the birds are more without care than
anything else that / know of. Sing at
evening. Singing is the last thing that
robins do. When they have done their
daily work; when they have flown their
last fight, and picked up their last morsel
of food, and cleaned their bill on napkin
of bough, then. ON topmost twig, they
sing one song of praise. know they
sleep sweeter for it. They dream music 1;
for they sometimes in the night break forth
in singing, and stop suddenly after the
the first note, startled by their own voice.

Wealth and Poverty Of our States.
tNs m0u.

Jefferson died comparatively poor. In
deed if Congress had not purchased his
library, and given him five times its value,
he would with difficulty, have kept the
wolf from the door.
Madison saved bis money, and was.com-
paratively rich. To aid to his fortune,
or rather that of the widow, Congress pur-
chased his manuscript papers and paid
$4,000 for them.
James Monroe, the sixth President Of
the United States, died so poor that his re-
mains found resting place through the
charity of his friends. They remain in q
cemetery but no monument marks the spot
where they repose.
John Quincy Adams left some $4,000,
the result Of industry, prudence and inher-
itance. He was man of prudence and
economy.
Martin Van Buren, died very rich
Throughout his political life he studiousIy
looked out for his own interests. 1t is not
believed that he ever spent thirty shillings
in politics. His party shook the bush and
he caught the bird.
Henry Clay left very handsome estate.
1t probably exceeded 100000. He was
prudent manager and scrupulously
honest man.
James X. Polk left about $3.50, ,000.-
$4,000 Of which was saved from his
Presidency Of four years.
Daniel Web.ter squandered some mil
lions in his life;ime-the product of his
professional speculation. He died. leaving
his property to hi. children, and his debts
to his friends. The former sold for less
than S20,000-the latter exceeding $780,
600.
John Tyler left $4,000. Before he
was President he was bankrupt. In office
he husbanded his means and then married
a rich wife.
Zachary Taylor left $4,000.
Millard Fillmore is rich man and
keeps his money in strong box. 1t will
not be squandered in speculation and vice.
Franklin Pierce saved some $4,000.

HEALrH.-Rightly considered, the neg
lect Of health or its deliberate sacrifice in
the pursuit Of business, pleasure, or am
bition, or even in excessive exertion for
the purpose of benevolence, is as clearly
breach of moral duty as suicide itself.
The only difference is in degree: and the
punishment it entails is frequently CT the
severest kind-irremediable disease, loss
