What a Homo shauld he

what a Home Should be.
We find the following In the coumunica-
ton of :" Perigrene Pickle" to the Chicago
Tribune Of Sunday, May 2. We think II a
perfect gem:
Home, to be home, must have the impress
OF time upon it. The associations must be
conferred in ths walls 80 firmly that they can
not be TORN of. Every -four in the garden,
every bush in the yard, must have its memo
ries- The clock which on the same shelf has
tucked this one into birth and that one into
death ; which has swung its pend alum with
the same solemn cadence through years Of
Joy and years Of sorrow; the freyed arm
chair IN the corner the steps worn BY the
attrit,on OF little feet, or firmly ST. piping feetl
aud OF feet whose FOOTBALLS we shall never
hear again this side of eternity the piano,
grown thin and wiry in tone perhaps. but
no less dear than the voices which have
grown thin and wiry with it the books
which have stood in their places year after
year and have talked to Us and those before
us In our quiet hours the pictures which
have mellowed and grown more lovely with
heeting time the table which. perhaps. il
too large now, as there are vacant places 4,

welcome little strangers and have closed for
ever upon some who went out, leaving be-
ninu them only memory and a blessing
which was douoly blessed because il was

associations and entwined with memories
winch reach from home to heaven, make q
home, and he who has once lived ia thai
nome can never gst 80 far from it but there
wih d. tender chord of love and memory
carrying him back to ii. Such home be-
comes part Of q man. II is impressed with

As q general rule, the best portion Of the
day for severe labor, either mental or physi-
cal, is before noon. The vital forces of the
body and brain, after the respiration afford
ed by good nights rest, are then Ia their
best condition for active and effective labor.
rhe mind is clearer, fresher and more elias
tic, and the muscles respond co the mandate
OF the will with greater readiness and free
dom. The experience OF many will seem to
contradict this. For instance, persons who,
from necessity or otherwise, have formed
the habit OF performing their hardest labors
In the afternoon or evening, will assert that
they can do IL easier at that time than n the
morning, and true enough they can, 90 long
as they are subject TO that habit; but once
let them discontinue that course, and form
the habit Of doing their hardest work in the
early part Of the day, and they viii soon
perceive q decided impro- eiaent in the ease
with which their work Is performed, and al
80 that they can d. more in the same length
OF time, and wlta less fatIg.e, than they pre-
viously could later ~ me day. As nature
indicatss the time 70 labor, 80 does she, even
more plainly, point out she time for rest
ln the "still hours OF night nature sleeps
and rests, and 60 should man. Man requires
on the average when in good health, about
eight hours sleep oHt Of the twenty-four and
4 '.o1ld all be taken during the hocrs Of
darkness. In sickness, it In often well for
the patienE not only to sleep all night, il ne
can, but also to sleep some in the day time.
In health, ..-y sleep u. unnecessary IL night
sleep can be had. Severe labor of any kind
should not be performed either 0 short time
before or soon after eating; but light, gentle
exercise or recreation, at such times, Is not
only mot c' Jectienable, but, for persOns in
health particularly, decided advantage.
No o..e should labor with the mind or body
while sufering from psin or fatigue. Under
such circumstances labor exhausts vitality
with .,reat -apidisy. Tue universal remedy
for fatigue In ress.

Barred with a Hammer.

A carpenter named Pierre Rccheau, and
residing In the outskirts Of Paris, declared
TO his friends that when he died be should
like to be buried with his hammer by his
side in the coffin that should contain his
body.
Why so was the oft-repeated question
hut Pierre would only smile and answer:
You shall see. | have always had Ger
tain prcsentim ent.
One day willie saving board the carpen-
ter suddenly clasped his hammer to his
breast and fell motionless upon the floor.
The doctors were sent for--they looked
wise and said Heart disease" SO Pierre's
coffin was made, and be was buried with the
hammer by his side, as he desired.
de laid up some money in the bank-two
thousand francs or thereabouts, and although
it was suspected that be had left will, vet
no will could be found. This caused quar-
rel among his relatives when they met at his
house. Each one declared that Pierre had
often told him (the speaker) that he should
have the money when its owner died. From
words these loving creatures almost came 20
blows; but in the midst Of their quarrel the
door opened, and Pierre Rocheau himself
very coolly walked into tEe .oom.
| have been listening at the door, said he,
and now | have to inform you, he added
with grim smile, that being the nearest re-
latiye to the owner Of the francs, | shal
claim the money myself You were in :
great hurry to bury me, he added. as al
ways suspected would be the case, and that
was why wanted to have nv hammer by
my side. Not being dead-ss the doctors
declared / was, and as you doubtless wer'
glad to believe, On account Of those francs

cuNsTITuToSAllTY OF THE INCOME TAX.

From the Philadelphia Ledger, May 1871
bill in equity has been fled In the United States
Circuit Court by john O'Byrne designed to test the
cOnstitut0nalty Of the act or Congress evying the
income tax. The bill that the act Is in viola
ton Of article four section nine Of the constitution
other direct tax shall be lad in proportion to
the census enumeration herelnbefOre directed TO
be taken.n
The bin sets forth that complainant received a
notice from the United states Assistant Assessor OF
the Eleventh DIVISION First district OF pennsylvania
requiring return Of income, &C.; that such return
was made.
The complainant says that after having made the
SAID return he received from Collector Cnares Abel
tilying him that he (Mr. Abel had levied upon such
o. the property OF him (the cOmplainant) as was
liable distress for United States internal revenue
tax due by him. amounting to $644 45 and notifying
him not to remove at his peril any Of said property
without payment OF said tax and expenses OF the
distress; and that he (Mr. Abel threatened that II
SAID tax and costs were not paid before three O'Clock
on the afternoon OF the 10th instant the property
would be taken possession Of, which would increase
the amount OF payment TO $6l1 81.
The complainant contends that the alleged act OF
Congress, together with Its supplements, under which
Collector Abel claims to act In direct violation Of
and In opposition to the constitution Of the United
States and are not OF any binding force or effect.
Tie complainant then prays the court to grant writ
Of subpoena directed to Collector Abel, commanding
him 10 appear before the court upon certain day to
answer tins bill OF complaint and to grant an lnjunc-
ton restraining the defendant from taking possession
Ing with or In any manner or form executing the
said distress.
The court then fixed the first Monday In June on
which to hear the argument.

the negroes and the carpet baggers, WILL they now
think, be better than foreign country. Inese thirty
six persons are In q most wretched condition; men,
women and children, without stockings or shoes ana
with scanty and torn clothing, are lvlng OUT IN tne

tnat no tenders came so, after deal OF loud talk
