THE MISTAKE OF WoMEN.-Ladies, as
rule, arc apt to be favorably impressed
by gentlemen who 'wrap themselves up
in the solitude of their own originality" )"
and defy the outer world to probe the in
ner depths of their souls. Woman is prone
to believe that she can read such charac-
ters like an open book that she has a key
to all their mysteries. Underneath the
marble exterior she sees a plastic material
which only needs her love and tact to
leave into delightful shapes. Minds Of
tenderness, ofintelligence, of magnaninity
underlie, she thinks, the blank upper-crust
of reserve. Too often, after having cried
her hand, at working them, she repcnts of
her folly in sackcloth and ashes. Your
utterly undemonstrative men seldom make
good husbands. Understand, howevery
that there is wide difference between
morbid reticcnce and mere shyness The
shy man keeps you at distance from him
by shrinking back from you the confding
man by holding you at arms length. A
lady about to make choice for life be-
tween the two will do well to give the
preference to the former. Very reserved
men are very difficult to govern, and are
almost invariably utterly selfish.

believed.
The par bic If the serpent that turned
and stung he land which afforded it pro-
tcUtion, but poorly illustrates the enormlty
of the migrate that, with subtle venom,
woiild poison the reputation Of people
who had elevated him far beyond his de-
serts. One is the act of an unreasoning
creature, the other the deliberate purpose
of fiend! We have unfortunately had
examples, not only of tile insane doings OF
the mendicant tribe, but of the still more
guilty creatures who have dealt out their
SANDERS from still higher stand-points.-.
Patience fails us when we think of such
wretches, and language is inadequate to
describe their utter degradation.

HAD His Mark ON IF-There used to
be a good English clergyman connected
with Providence Conference. who had a
carpet bag marked with the single initial
L. On one occasion in those times the
annual sitting of the conference finished
it's business and reached the final adjourn
ment in the afternoon, but few minutes
before the hour when the members were
to leave town. Many Of them, anticipa-
ting such state of things, had taken
their baggage to the church where the
sessions were held and as soon as the
bencdiction was pronounced there was
rush for the pile of valises and bags IN the
entry. Our English friend was at the
last end of the crowd, and not being able
to get to the pile, stood outside Of the
circle, calling out, "'As any brother seen
carpet-bag marked Holl?"

pays.

A yonng man once picked nn a SOW.

"A young man once picked upa SOW
ereign lying on the road. Ever after
ward, as he walked along, he kept his
eyes steadily fixed on the ground, in
hopes of finding another. And in the
course of long life he did pick up, at
different times, a good amount of gold
and silver But all these days, as he was
looking for them, he saw not that heaven
was brg ght above him, and nature beau
tiful around. He never once allowed his
eyes to look up from the mud and filth in !.
which he sous ght the treasure, and when
he died, he only knew this fair earth of
ours as dirty road to pick up money as
YOU walk along.

An Eloquent Extract.

I'VE copy the conclusion of an interest
ing NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. delivered in De-
cenb Der, last, by Col. G. r. Barteauto the
students of the Masonic High School at
Aberdeen, ississippi:
7 think Thear$ each heart re.echo to
itself, Ne will not forsake our mother
clime,-in the hour Of suffering and dis
tressful impoverishmcnt:. She is now
doubly dear and cemented to us, through
much; bfoodshed and @bereave And
can tbere5be d sensof the South who can
notfeels himself an essential guardian to
hershenor? One thatean prove recreant
over the graves of his brothers, and feel
no zeal for their good name and fame?
one sosunWorthy as 2eanz cease to look
upon this. country as essentially his own !?
Here are our homes, and here, are the
graves of our. loved ones, who else can
Lave better right to claim them than
We? Here .wc live, and here is our des-
tiny. Shall our disaster make US the less
ambitious or patrioticS rs there one who
claims to be of US, and yet. cannot feel an
interest in our welfare, nor cherish sa-
cred sentimental the country and honor !?
If therezais, old or young, let him be
branded as the worst of living misan-
thropes, for he bases his want Of feeling
entirely upon the defeat and misfortunes
of his own people.
By such ono the burning language of
the ''last minstrel" by which he stigma
tized and rebuked the man who never
felt for country, ismore than deserved:
Hsliving forfeits fair renoYn,
And, doubly dying, shall 60 down
=. To the vile dust from whence he sprung,
Unwept, unhonored, and unsung.
Yes, you do love, you will love this na-
tive South, the land of chivalry and flow
ers; you love Mississippi, the fairest
daughter-nay, your dearest mother; for
she ;s yorr MT ther. The first kind glance
that beamed upon your infancy was from
her loving eye; the first gentle smile that
kindled maternal love in your infant soul
was from her beaming face and she has
nourished you from infancy through
childhood up to the very verge Of man
hood, through many hours OF suffering
and trouble; you love her for her many
charms and virtues; you love her for her
balmy air, her cxuberant soul, her clear
and winding streams, her broad and fer
tile prairies, her hospitablc homes, her
graves, her brave sons and her fair daugh-
tiers. Aye; you love her most for her
many sorrows and bereavements.
