THE LOsr CHORD.


By ADELAIDE ANNE PROCTOR.
Seated one day at the organ,
i was weary and IN al tase,
And my fingers wandered ioiy
Ger the noisy keys.
lido rot know what I was paying,
Or what I was dreaming m u;
But I struck n chord OF music,
Like the Oun OF a great Amen.
It flooded the crimson twilight,
Like the close OF an Angels Psalm,
And itlay on my fevered spirit
With "a touch olDnnite calm
It Quoted pain and sorrow,
Like love overcome strife,
1t seemed the harm NOUS echo
From our discoruant LIFE.
Itlinked all perplexed meanings
Into n perfect peace,
And trembied away into silence
As IL it were 10th to cease.
Ihave sought, but seek 1t yainly,
That one lost chord divine,
That came from the soul OF the organ,
And entered into mine.
Il my be that deaths bright angel
VIII sDeak ia that chord again,
Itmay be that only in Heaven
Ishall heal thar grand Amen.

NEVER GIVE UP.

Many premature death has occurred in
consequence Of giving up. The sick person
becomes discouraged, thinks he is going to
die, and dies. Friends think they have done
all they could, death is inevitable, and let
disease take its course. There can be M
doubt but that in many such cases hopo still
cherished, and the pcrsevcring usc Of means,
might have saved useful life.
So also in the struggles of active life. The
first speech Of Disracli in the House Of Com.
mons was complete failure, his speech it
is said, being stiAed in the derisivc laugh
ter Of the House. lie thus closed: II
shall sit down now, but the time will come
when you will hear me-" Numbers have
sunk into insignifcancc under less rebuff.
Disracli was made Of sterner stuff. Though
it took him seven years to recover from his
disaster, he redeemed his promise, and on
becoming chancellor Of the exchcquer, clad
in the same garments he had worn at tho
time Of his renowned failure, delivered to q
closely assemblagc the most brilliant and
the ablest budget speech that had been
heard there since the days of William Pitt. "
Everybody should feel that he is immor-
tai until, his work is done. Try again."

admit no defeat as final We learn at time,
more from failure than 4 success, and turn
it to better account. Such should ever bc
our aim. Use all honorable means, rely on
the ultimate triumph Of right, pcrscvcrc in
the effort TO deserve success, and failure will
never be inscribed on your lict.work. Tho

Education in the Printing ONCE.

Tho late witty Mr.. Brown (Artemus
Ward) has left, among other directions in
his will, that youth, whom he had adopted,
should be sent to college, but that before be-
ing sent there, he should be put as an ap-
prentice in printing Office, that he might
ascertain how little he knew, and how i'm.
portant it was to learn"
This was most sensible provision for the
lad, for We can conceive Of no place better
calculated than printing Office to teach u
boy the practical parts of an education.
Mr.. Brown knew well how little is often
learned at school of even the plainest sub
jects which all ought to know thoroughly.
A great many boys of sixteen cannot write
page Of note paper without several glaring
mistakes in grammar and spelling, and as to
punctuation, that is thing that not only
youth, but often older people, know but lit
tie, if anything about.
a lad put to setting typo makes but bad
out Of it at first. With the greatest care
he makes many mistakes, and it takes some
time to get him to set type rapidly and cor
rectly.
In tho process of learning to compose"
as setting type is technically termed, the
youth inscnsibly acquires the habit Of spell
ing and punctuating correctly, and improves
his grammar by constant repetitions Of cx,
amples Of well constructed English.
We have often seen practical printers who
had received no regular education, who new
erthcless could put to the blush those who
had thousands spent upon their instruction,
and who, though in college they had learn
ed all the "ologics," could not construct a
decent English sentence.
In addition to this thorough instruction
in what may be called the elements Of edu.
cation, the printer, if observant Of what he
is composing can collect in q few years
vast body of information on almost any
subject; for it is astonishing toconsider what
an amount Of knowledge Of all sorts is con
tanned IN the columns oil daily paper.
Moreover, so much of literary and SCI
entifc nature comes under view in "com-
posing" that the young printer necessarily
acquires at least, enough of the various de-
partments Of knowledge to induce him to
investigate more deeply, and the same para
graphs which excite his desire of increasing
his stores Of information, will dicrcct him
to the best sources from which he may de-
rive fuller ahd moro methodical instruction.
These facts and reasons explain why prn-
ters are generally, rs a class, so well inform
ed, and why so many men of distinction in
our land began life at ''the cases. Indeed,
next to the Law, which is the great avenue
to popular distinction, we believe that the
Profession of the Printer has furnished by
far more men of political and literary dis
tinction than all the rest Of the professions
put together.

places. Therefore let the fire burn brightly
at night, and make the homestead delight
iul with al those little arts that parents so
perfectly understand Don't reprcss tho
buoyant spirits Of your children. Half an
hour of merriment, round the lamp and
tire-light of home, bots out the remcm-
brance Of many care and annoyance during
the day; and the best safeguard they can
take with them into the world is the unseen
influence of a bright little domestic sanc.um.

rsa- The Sunbury Gazette and other Ne
gro organs are trying to make a fuss over
the fact that John Hughes, formerly of
Schuylkill county, Pa, has recently been
elected to tho North Carolina State Senate.
Mr. Hughes went South in 1862 upon the
outbreaking of hostilities, and forthe follow
ins reason: His wife was native of North
Carolina, and the conduct of the highly edu-
Gated, highly civilized and super-fned and
religious loyal people of Pennsylvania who
were her neighbors, was such that q lady
from the South could not tliveat peace amongst
them, and she was almost compelled to leave
to escape the blessings of northern civilza.
ton and, Of course, her husband, as any
man would have done, accompanied her as
natural protector when she should get down
among the cannibals of the South! John
Hughes is nephew of Frank Hughes, Of
Schuylkill county, an able lawyer and very
prominent democratic politician, and what
is said by these papers is said with the in
tention Of indirectly injuring Frank Hughes.
They want to use Johns record to iniure
Frank. All their blowing amounts to moth.
ing however, as the terms loyal and rebel
are played out or don't benefit or kurt any
body anymore. Besides, it will soon be
more crcditable to have been rebel than
loyalist. We would rather to-day be Jeffer-

My lover and me
In the valley beneath tic sycamore tree?
Whatever befel,
O MOon--dont tell
Twas nothing amiss, you know very well
O Moon you know,
\ long time ago,
You left the sky and descended below,
Ol Il summers night,
BY your own sweet light,
To meet your Endylnion on Latmos height
And there. o Moon
You gave him boon,
You wouldn l'mshurc, have granted atnoon
Twas nothing amiss,
Being only the bliss,
or giving--and taking an innocent kiss.
Some churlish lout,
Who was spying about,
Went OF and blabbed-and so it got out;
But for the gold
The sea could hold,
@ Moon IL wouldn't have gone and told.
So Moon-don't tell
or what befel
My lover and me in the lcafy dell
lie Is honest and true,
And. remember, too,
We only behaved like your lover and you?
