The successful man is not necessarily
the man TO be envied-not always the
happiest man. Human nature cannot
have its own will long without becoming
deteriorated by it. We are appointed TO
struggle, and in struggling our highest
life is developed. The time will come
when the laws of our present condition
will cease, and when we shall be able to
bask in the sunshine of success without
loss of vitality or enervation of our vir-
tues. Till then, it is our wisdom to ac-
cept our lot, and make the best of ito
seek for our enjoymentin our work rather
than what the work produces-to till the
coil, and dismiss all needless anxiety
about the harvest-to be more concerned
that We should he right than that we
should succeed; in word, to bear our
selves like weli-disciplined soldiers with
whom strict obedience is the most sRcred
Of obligations, and who are thereby ab-
solved from responsibility as to results.
Then, 20 far As success is vouchssfed us,
1t will be grateful 30 Ear as it is denied,
1t will not disconcert US. Thus living,
our life will be its own success. Hl

TAs Force OF ImsRinstto~.

ALucchese peasant, shooting sparrows,
saw his dog attacked by strange and
very ferocious mastiff. He tried tn sepa-
rate the animals, and received bite from
his own dog, which instantly ran off
through the fields. The wound was
healed in few days, but the dog was
not to be found and the peasant after
some time, began to feel symptoms of
nervous agitation. He conceived that
the dog, from his disappearing, was mad
and within day or two after this idea
had struck him, he began to feel symp-
toms of hydrophobia. They grew hourly
more violent; he raved, and had all the
evidences Of the most violent temper
As he was lying, with the door open, to
let in the last air that he was to breathe,
he heard his dog bark. The animal ran
up to his bedside, licked his hand, and
frolicked about the room. 1t was clear
that he at least was in perfect health
The PEASANTS mind was relieved at the
instant; he gotupwith renewed strength,
dressed himself, plunged his head in a
basin OF water, and, thus refreshed.
walked into the room to his astonished
family. The statement is made in a
memoir, by Prof. Barbantini: and it is
not improbable that many attacks of a
disease SO strongly dependent on the i'm
sgination, might be equally cured by as
certaining the state of the animal by
which the bite was given.

TALENT AND TAcT.-Talent is some
thing, but tsct 10 everything. Talent is
serious, sober, grave and respectable I;
tact is all that, and more too. 1t is not
a seventh sense, but it is the life of all
five. 1t is the open eye, the quick ear,
lively touch it is the interpreter of all
riddles-the surmounter of all difficult
ties-the remover of all obstacles. 1t is
useful in all places and at all times it is
useful in solitude, for it showsa man his
way into the world it is useful in So
ciety, for it shows him his way through
the world. Talent is power-tact is skill;
talent is weight-tact is momentum ;
talent knows what to do--tact knows
how to do it talent makes a man re-
spectable-tact will make him respected;
talent is weslth--tact is ready money.
For all the practical purposes Of life tact
carries it against talent-ten TO one.

The cost ofprotecting the lives and lib
critics of the loyalists of the South, has
been comparatively trifling. The num-
ber of soldiers on duty in the South does
not exceed fall corps of the late army
of the Potomac. The total expenses of
our military establishment for the pres
entyear will probably not exceed S25 ,000,-
900, and only about pne-half of this sum
may be credited to the South. Deduct
ing from this, say two millions, for ordi-
nary expenses, will leave about ten mil
lions for expenditures Reconstruction.
This expenditure is certainly not large,
considering the magnitude of the work
to be done. 1t is necessary and it will
be beneficial. 1t is part of the price we
are paying for thirty years of Democratic
supremacy. 1t is the tail end of the cost
of a Democratic rebellion. Let us recon-
struct the Government 80 that the bitter
cup may never again be presented to ouI
lips.-[ Toledo Blade. H.. .F...., o..
