Fancy the kitchen of q Roman Patri-
oian Its walls are covered with pic
lures in ~fresco, its floor is Of marble, its
utensils are OF finest bronze, lined with
silver and with gold, and are all designed
to represent something In air, earth or
sea. 1t might be 3 pleasant Pastime to
broil on a gridiron whose silver bars rep
resented the ribs Of a skeleton OF q fish,
or to fry in a silver tortoise or in a huge,
terrible spider. To boil water in an ele-
phsnt's head, and to pour it through the
trunk for a spout, might be rather enter
tanning. There were fancy and poetry in
the kitchens of those days. The Ro-
mans added to their model kitchens an
aviary and a fish pond and it is but an.
old story to tell how fish sporting in the
water were often shown to guests, and
then cooked and served, that there
might be assurance Of their freshness.

BEAUTIFpL ExTRAcT.--Men seldom think of the great event of death until the shadow falls across their own path, hiding forever from their eyes the traces of the loved ones whose living smiles were the sunlight of their existence. Death is the great antagonist of life, and the cold thought of the tomb is the skeleton of all feasts. We'do not want to go through the dark vaAey, although its passage may lead to paradise; and with Charles Lamb, we do not want to lie down in the muddy grave, even with kings and princes for our bedfellows. There is no appeal or relief from the great law which dooms us to dust. We flourish and we faGe as the leaves of the forest, and the flower that blooms and withers in day has not Trailer hold up- on life than the mightiest monarch that ever shook the earth with his footsteps. Generations of men appear and vanish as the grass, and the countless multitude that throngs the world to-day, will tomorrow disappear as the footsteps on the shore.
 In the beautiful drama of Ion, the in- stnct of immortality, so eloquently uttered by the death devoted Greek, finds deep response in every thoughtful soul When about to yield his young existence as a sacrifice to fate, his beloved Clemanthe asks if they shall not meet again, to which hereplies:
 "I have asked that dreadful question of the hills that look eternal-of the clear streams that flow forever-of the stars. among whose fields of azure my raised spirit hath walked in, glory All were dumb. But while l gaze upon thy living face, feel that there is something in the love that mantles through its beauty that cannot wholly perish. We shall meet again Clemanths, -

Permit a remark here. The editorial proprietor
of this paper is strictly q temperance man, never
using Intoxicating drinks or tobacco, though he
is not member Of any temperance society. tits
an old rule Of his never to employ man who il
addicted to the use OF liquor, or who becomes in
toxicated, and DO person who is not sober. tenn
perate industrious man need ever apply for any
situation IN any of his printing Offices, or other
places of business, for they cannot obtain them.
Every man has a right to get drunk or not as we
have right to employ such men as suit US. In
temperance Is Abolish, senseless, expensive habit.
IL units man for business, destroys his intellect
aud vitality, steals his brains, and makes him un-
trustworthy. Therefore we employ no such men.
One reason for our success is that we were always
temperate. and never employed an intemperste
man after we knew him TO be such. The love of
liquor has ruined thousands Of our best men-has
lost Us great battles-has cost Us millions of dol
lars. II is the only enemy we are afraid Of. We
are no prohibitionist-would let every man spend
his money foolishly If he wishes to-spoil his
stomsch-rob his children of bread-if he can
have the heart to; but no such person can ever
be connected with us in any capacity"
