LEARN A TRADE.-Stephen Girard
had Il favorite clerk, and he always said
he ''intended to do we'll by Ben Lippen
cott.o SO when Ben got to be twenty
one, he expected to hear the ''goyer-
nor'' say something Of his future pros
poets, and perhaps lend a helping hand
in starting him in the world. But the
old fox carefully avoided the subject.
Ben mustered courage. Il suppose l
am now free, sir,'' said he, "and 1
tho1ght | would say something to you
as to my course. What do you think l
had better do ?:''-ssYes, yes, | know
you are,n said the millionaire land
my advice is that you go and learn the
cooper's trade .-- .. ..
This piece of advice nearly froze Ben
out; but, recovering his equilibrium,
he said if Mr.. Girard was i'll earnest, he
would do so. 1' am i'll earnest ;" and
Ben forthwith sought the best cooper
in Spring Garden, became an appren-
tice, and in due time could make as
good barrel as the best. He announc-
ed to old Stephen that he had gradual
ed and was ready to set up in business.
The old man seemed gratitied, and i'm
mediately ordered three of the best bar
rels he could turn cut. Ben did his
prettiest, and wheeled them up to his
counting room. Mr. Girard pronounc-
ed them first rate, and demanded the
price. Gone dollar said Ben, sis as
low as l can live by" "Cheap enough
Make out your bill" The bill was
made out and old Stephen settled it
with check for $4,000, which he ac-
companied with his little piece of moral
to the story: i" There take that, and in
vest it i'll the best possible manner, and
II you are unfortunate and lose it, you
have good trade to fall back upon,
which will affard you good living"

Repenting tears win heed,

Away from earthly strife,

A great effort win be made in the
Illinois Legislature to insure the extern
sion of the canal from Chicago to the
Mississippi at or near Rock Island. The
estimated cost of theenlar cement and ex-
tension is four million dollars. Only six
miles of canal are needed to complete the
connection, with proposed feeder from
Rock Island, from point near Dixon
When this work is done, barges can be
loaded at any point on the Mississippi,
and sent through direct to Chicago. The
work IS pronounced by practical engin-
eers to be perfectly feasible. 1t would
render only two reshipments necessary
between St. Paul and New York-one at
Chicago and one at Buffalo.

The Cynio

The cynic is one who never sees
good quality In man, and never fails to
see bad one. he is The human owl.
vigilant In darkness and blind IN LIGHT,
mousing for vermin q never seeing noble
game. The cynic puts all human actions
into classes, openly bad and secretly bad.
All virtue and generosity and disinter-
estedness are merely the appearance Of
good, but selfish. at the bottom. He
holds that no man does q thing except
for profit. The effect of his conversation
upon your feelings is to chill and scar
them, to send you away sour and morose.
His criticisms and inuendoes fab indis-
crlminately upon every lovely thing, ike
frost upon flowers If man is said to be
pure and chaste, he answers: Yes, in the
daytime. Ifa woman is yirtuous, he viii
reply Yes as yet. Mr.. A. is religious
Yes, on Sundays Mr.. B. has just joined
the church: Certenly, the elections are
coming on. The minister of the gospel
is called an example Of diligence It is his
trade. Such a man is genius: To lull
suspicion and cheat you. This man Is
upright: Because he is green. Thus bis
eye straines out every good quality, and
takes in only the bad-as the yulture
when in the highest heaven, viii sail by
living focks and heards, but comes likes
an arrow down upon the smallest carcas.
To him religion is hypocrisy, honesty
preparation for fraud, virtue only want
of opportunity, and undeniable purity,
ascetism. The liveloDg day he viii cool
ly sit with sneering lip, uttering sharp
speeches in the quietest manner, and In
polished phrase transfxing every char
acter which is presented @His words
are softer than oil, yet they are drawn
swords. ."-Ps. " 81 All this to the
young seems wonderful knowledge of
human nature; they honor man who
appears to have found out mankind.
They begin to indulge themselves in
.flppant sneers; and with supercilious
brow, and impudent tongue wagging to
an empty brain, call to naught the wise,
the long-tried, and the venerable.
