ONE BY ONE.

One by one the sands are flowing,
One by one the moments fall:
Some are coming, some are gong;
Do not strive to grasp them all.
One by one the duties wait thee,
Let thy whole strength go to each,
Let no future dreams elate thee,
@ Learn thou first what these can teach.
One by one bright gifts from Heaven)
Joys are sent thee here below
: Take them readily when given,
Ready, too, to let them go.
One by one thy gifts shall meet thee,
Do not fear an armed band
One will fade as others greet thee
r Shadows passing through the land
Do not look at life's long sorrow;
See how small each moments pain,
God will help thee for tomorrow,
So each day begin again.
Every hour that fleets SO slowly,
Has its task to do Or bear;
Luminous the crown, and holy,
When each gem is set with care
DO not linger with regretting,
Or for passing hours dcspond,
Nor, the daily toll forgetting,
. Look too eagerly beyond
Reaching Heaven one by one
Take them, lest the chain be broken
Ere the pilgrimage be done.
The SEcRET.-sI noticed said Frank
ain, "a mechanic among number of 9TH
ers, at work on house erecting but lit
tie way from my Office, who alwaysappear-
ed to be in merry humor, who had a
kind word and cheerful smile for every
one he met. Let the day be ever so cold,
gloomy or sunless, happy smile danced
like sunbeam on his cheerful counten-
ance. Meeting him one morning, asked
him to tell me the secret Of his constant
happy flow of spirits
No secret, Doctor he replied. L have
got one Of the best wives, and when go to
work she always has kind word of en-
couragement for me; and when I 60 home
she meets me with smile and kiss; and
then tea is sure to be ready, and she has
done many little things through the day to
please me, that cannot find it in my heart
to speak an unkind word to anybody
What influence then has woman over
the heart Of man, to soften it and make it
the foundation of cheerful and pure emo
tons. Speak gently, then; greetings af-
ter the tolls Of the day over cost nothing,
and goes far toward making home happy
and peaceful.

The Amenities of Politics.


Foreigners laugh at our political idiosyn-
cracies. But what do we care for foreign
ers? These United States are a world
within themselves, self sustaining, confident
defiant. The municipal election next month
Is mere bagatelle. The idea of September
confer fat and succulent Offices that endure
for two and four years. Many condemn
politics because of the bitterness and
acerbity they engender So they do. But
then they have their amenities. We have
encountered a sour faced old fellow upon our
thoroughfare. If he has saluted US at all, it
has been in manner the grumest; as much
as to say, | bow to you so as not to be called
to an account for refusal to recognize you
on the public streets. 1t was but yesterday
morning we met the ancient curmudgeon. =
His vinegar and wrinkled countenance was
wrrathed in softest smiles. He seized US by
both our palms and poured upon world of
inquiries about our health and prospects in
most ducet and purring tones. Each word
he uttered was caress. And we tore our
selves away from his cleaving embrace with
a rank impression that he was lunatic or
had Just Joined the Methodist church. We
were wrong. The venerable institution had
embarked upon the stormy sea of politics.
lie is a candidate for office. His sudden
politeness is sop to Cerberus- close
listed fellow about town, has been indebted
to us for some length of time in a small
amount, and we badgered him therefor to
his and our nausea The truth is we have
needed the coin for family purposes. The
other day our debtor met us with pleasant
visage and addressed US by our baptismal
appelation. He spoke in humble and sub
dued manner Of the old Indebtedness and
laid the fault Of his remissness in payment
on his wretched memory. Our pleasant in
terview terminated in q faithful settlement.
We were puzzled with this eccentric exhibi
ton of commercial integrity, and were only
relieved upon hearing that our former debtor
proposes serving this needy community as
State Legislator. There is great deal of
arrogant manner and assumption of superior
dignity among the legal profession. Who
but they? But Of late they have become as
gentle as doves and meek as serpents? They
mingle freely and unostentatioasly among
their fellow citizens, drink with them and
inquire with much earnestness in regard to
the health of their wives and legitimate off
spring. They are seen caressing little chill
dren at street corners, and donating them
homeopathic quantities of confectionery
Wherefore this change of demeanor? We
have queried the matter to the ascertainment
that they thirst and pant for office, and would
win ballots from the male parents of the
greasy little enes they fondle. And so it is
that politics convert stones into sympathizing
humanities. Politics may fever the public
mind and give birth to animosities, but then
they exert some soflening infiuences.-LoS

SHOULD NOT BE FoRGorrEN.-Th San
Francisco Dispatch of April Goth has the fol-
lowing:
Yesterday was the anniversary of the arri-
val in San Francisco of the veteran General
Sumner. the savior of California, in 1851
Before the steamer reached her wharf boat
was lowered to land the General on Alcatraz.
Had this event occurred half an hour later,
it is well known that California would have
been lost to the Union. The forts in the
harbor would have been in the hands of Sc
cessionists, and San Francisco at their mercy.
We will not repeat the story of how the
brave old veteran, single handed, marched
into the stronghold Of Alcatraz and read his
credentials to the astonshed and surprised
Gen. a. Sydney Johnson; nor how the last
named soldier Immediately vamosed through
Mexico and joined the Confederate Army
These facts are familiar to all our citizens
and no doubt that the opportune arrival of
the old Union General saved our State from
being bloody ground" equal to Ken
tucky of old, or Missouri in the last strug
gle. Yesterday was day for the reception
ceremonies of Captain Worden, and the re.
union of the Society OF California Volun
teers.

How A Man WAS TREATED WHO WANTED
his BREAYFAsr.-The Fenian leaders were
prompt in furnishing any breach of discipline
or insubordination on the part of their fol-
lowers. One instance which occurred near
Tipperary was told me to-day. A farmers
son, who says he was impressed by the in
surgents, was out with them all one night
In the morning, feeling very hungry as we'll
as very tired, he said he would 20 home to
breakfast. As no military code, not even
the Fenlan code, can recognize the right of
an army in the field to go every man his own
way to meals, the Fehian leader objected to
this proposal. lIewever, the young recruit
was unused to the rigid discipline by which
armies are kept together, and being verv hun
CRY he was very wilful, and as he weighed
the assured delights of the morning rasher
and hot tea against the remote prospect of
a ha'porth Of bread and water from the
brook. he stepped boldly out in the direction
of home. The Irish American leader of the
Fenian band went after him, and with an
oath gave him his breakfast in the shape of
bullet through the thigh. The man was
under the care eff surgeon, and on Sunday
n magistrate went over to take his deposition.
One would suppose that anybody who had
-been SO treated would be anxious to bring to
justice the fellow who had manned him
But the farmers son would not say a word
by which either the leaderor any of the party
could be Identified

ANOTHER THING.-The Nevada Gazette
mentions the case of taxpayer and Assessor
meeting not far from Red Dog. The tax
payer had fine female dog, and was very
communicative. His dog knew more than
any other mans dog, and was worth all the
dogs IN Nevada eounty-in fact, was of more
value than the dogs Of Venice. So far, so
good. The Assessor listed the young mans
property and demanded 50 for 80 that ere
dog" Z" What is that for?' inquired the
young man. That was another thing his dog
shouldn't be taxed twasn't fair-'twas a
shame, for his Dog was nothing but a NANCY
cur, anyhow: he be dogon'd if he'd paw a
cent-the id dog wasn't worth il.

A GRANGE FOR PHILAETHRoPIc REBELs.-Iti is
said that in the neighborhood Of Fort Saunders
where the rebel dead were buried after the sangui-
nary conflict which resulted in raising the siege Of
Knoxville, the hogs are occasionally disinierring
their bodies, and that sights are sometimes seen
there which cause humanity TO shudder and sicken.
II occurs 70 that If of the wealthy rebels Of
Knoxville would give this matter the attention they
ought, that the remains Of these poor fellows, who
fell victim TO Southern arstocracy, might be res
cued from so horrible fate.
When rebel was executed here as 3 spy, those
could be found who would most willingly strew
flowers over his grave" and surely these men who
bravey fought the battles of the slave lords of the
SOuth-who met death like heroes though in
wicked cause-Are entitled 70 as much eonsiderA-
ton at the hands Of those who urged them on TO
battle.
