Better than Gold.

Better than grandeur, better than gold,
Than rank and titles, o thousand fold,
Is a healthy body, mind at e;se
And simple pleasures that always please
A heart that can feel another's woe,
And share his joys with genial glow,
With sympathies large enough TO enfold
All men as brothers, is better than gold.
Better than gold is alconscicncc clear,
Though telling for bread in humble sphere,
Doubly blest with content and health,
Untried by the lust or cares of wealth
Lowly living and lofty thought
AdOrn and ennoble a poor mans cot
For mind and morals in natures plan
Are the genuine test of a gentleman.
Better than gold is the sweet repose
OF the sons of toll when their labors close;
Better than gold ID the poor mans sleep
And the balm that drops oh his sumbers deep,
bringing sleepy draughts TO the downy bed
Where luxury pillows his aching head,
His simple opiate labor deems
A shorter road to the land of dreams.
Better than gold is a thinking mind,
That in the realm of books can find
A treasure surprising Australian ore,
And live with the great and good of yore,
The sages lord and the poets lay,
The glorles of empire passed away,
The worlds great drama will thus unfold,
And yield pleasure better than gold.
Better than gold is peaceful home,
Where all the fireside charities come,
The shrine of love, the heaven of life,
Hallowed by mother or sister or wife,
However humble the home may be
Or tried with sorrow by heavens decree,
The blessings that never were bought or sold
And center there are better than gold.

LOOK TO THE COP OF Yorn FArHrns

LOOK TO THE COP OF YoUR FATHERS
Henry Ward Beecher, in recent SER
mon, discoursed thus in regard TO the
fair sex:
"Maidens, look to the God of your
fathers. If there be any one in this
world who can not afford not to be a
Christian, it IL woman. If there be
any one whose beauty fades as flower,
and whose grace needs the sus.enance
of the ineffable; if there be one whose
power is in beauty, in purity, goodness,
it is woman. If there be any one more
than another upon whom blight falls
more rudely; il there be any one more
than another who is more burdened with
grief, OF more wrung with sorrow, 1t is
woman that is not Christian. The
ladder between her soul and God Is not
half so long as that between our souls
and God. God made woman to be bet
ter than man; and the perversion is in
proportion when she is worse"

CURIOUS FANCIEs OF DsoRpERED
MIND.-Sebastian Hufer, n shoemaker at
Hannibal, Missouri, lately had au attack
of insanity, during which he became pos
sessed of the idea that Satan was in his
dog, and it would be a righteous act to
kill the brute. After he had dispatched
the dog, he concluded that the incarna-
tion OF evil had taken possession of his
eight years old daughter, and, calling
her to him, he seized her, placed strap
around her neck, threw her to the floor,
placed his foot on her head, and, taking
a knife, cut out her heart and swallowed
the coagulated blood. He was arrested
some time after committing the deed,
being found in his own house with the
door fastened. He made no attempt to
conceal his guilt, but gave straightfor-
ward history of the affair, manifesting
no regret at the occurrence. He stated
that by drinking the ehild's blood be,
would never want food, and that he felt
justified in the course he had pursued

Bathing.

Once n week IL often enough for n do.
cent man TO wash himself all over. and
whether in summer or winter that ought
TO be done, with soap, warm water and a
hogs hair brush, in a room showing at
least seventy degrees Fahrenheit. If a
man is pig in his nature, then no amount
Of washing will keep him clean, inside or
ont. Such one neeCs bath every
time he turns round. lie cannot do any
thing neatly.
Baths should be taken early in the
morning, for it is then the system poss-
esses the power Of reaction in the highest
degree. Any kind of bath is dangerous
soon after meal, or soon after fatiguing
exercise. No man or woman should take
q bath at the close of the day, unless by
the advice of the family physician. Many
a man in attempting to cheat his doctor
out of fec, has cheated himself out Of
his lite; it is done every day.
The safest mode Of a cold bath is n
plunge into river; the safest time is i'm
mediately after getting up. The neces-
sary effort of swimming to shore COM
pels reaction and the effect is delight
ful.
The best, safest, cheapest and most
universally accessible mode of keeping
the surface OF the body clean, besides the
once a week washing with soap, warm
water and hogs hair brush, is as jollows:
As soon as you get out of bed in the
morning wash your face, hands, neck and
breast; then into the same basin of water
put both feet AT once for about minute,
rubbing them brisklY all the time, then
with the towel, which has been dampened
by wiping the face, feet, etc, wipe the
whole body well, fast and hard, mouth
shut, brest projecting. Let the whole
thing be done within FIVE minutes.
AT night, when you go to bed, and
when ever you get out of bed during the
night, or when you find yourself wakeful
or restless, spend from two to five min
utes in rubbing the whole body, with
your hands, as far as you can reach, in
every direction. This has tendency to
preserve that softness and nobility of
skin so essential to health and which too
frequent washing always destroys.

THE ENVELOPE BUSINESS per-
sons are aware of the various results
which have been consequent upon the
introduction into extensive use of letter
envelopes. Tons of paper and barrels of
mucilage are used every month in the
manufacture of different kinds of envel-
opes. In New York four firms are ex-
tensively engaged in the business, and
many Others do something at in a small
way. The number of envelopes turned
out weekly is not far from four millions.
The gum used is preparation of starch
called dertri'ae, the value of which for
sealing and stifening purposes was acci-
dentally discovered in England some
time since. During the confiagration OF
large -four warehouse, cotton spinner
worked at carrying water and rolling
out the partially charred flour. In the
morning he found his clothes irremed-
iably stiffened and glued together.
On investigation, he ascertained that
the scorched flour would form, with wa
ter, a glutinous matter much more adhe
sive than any known gum. Subsequent
experiments revealed the fact that this
preparation was hetter than gum arabic
for Stiffening cotton goods, and the dis
coverer kept his secret ard made money
out of the manufcture of "British gum"
for Gotten dresses. But his success was
his ruin he became prohigate, his Sc
cret Was discovered, aud degtrine came
into notice. 1t is now used for all pur-
poses where cheap mucilage is required.
For dressing cotton goods, for preparing
the backs of postage stamps, the edges
of envelopes, manufacturers labels, &c,
ii is found to be unrivaled. 1t has nearly
ruined the gum arabic trade, as well as
that in sealing wax and waters.

HUSBoLpr, who witnessed several
earthquakes, said that no one ever gets
used to them, but, on the contrary, his
feelings of dread are intensified at each
successive one which he experiences
All beasts and birds partake of mans
fear, and seem panic-stricken. Hum
bel ldt accounts for mans inability to be-
come accustomed TO, and consequently
not to dread earthquakes, by saying
that, whatever we have at any time OF
under any circumstances considered sha-
ky, the earth has always stood firm, and,
when we find that tossing beneath our
feet, it seems as though the very bottom
of things had been Knocked out Every
time the shock is repeated, the unrelia-
bility of cur only support is at once
forced upon our attention with augment
ed force.

THE U. S. MINISTER TO HAYTI.-The
Derby Transcript gives the following
notice of Mr.. Bassett, the newly ap-
pointed colored Minister to Hayti. 1t
appears that by patient, persevering
effort, he has worked his way up like
any other poor boy, and now he is hon
orably treated by the United States Gov
ernment, like any other deserving man.
All honor to a President who thus re-
CARDS merit, not race:
"Among the list of foreign appoint
ments, we notice that of Mr.. L. d. Bas-
sett, Minister to Hayti. This is Derby
boy, and will suggest "reminiscences to
many. Under the favorable auspices of
DIR. Beardsley-in whose office he studied
awhile-and others, he was taken, as a
poor yet most worthy boy, helped from
step to step, until he has, as we see,
made man of himself. He is mostly a
selt-made scholar, having acquired good
knowledge of five different languages,
wields vigorous pen, and while in
Derby was often stimulated in his aspi-
rations by being told that he would some
day be Governor of Liberia Gentle
manly in his be airing, honest and capable,
his appointment, we trust, will do honor
TO his country"

matism, which finally settled in his foot.
He bathed it, he rubbed and swathed
it; but all to no purpose. Finally, tear
ing away the bandage, he stuck 1t out,

claimed: "Ache away, den, ole feIier,

THANKFULNEss.-if one should give
me dish of sand, aud tell me that there
were particles of iron in il, might look
for them with my eyes, and search for
them with my clumsy fingers, and be
unable to detect them but let me take
a magnet and sweep through it, and it
would draw to itself the most invisible
particles, by the mere power of attrac-
tion. The unthankful heart, like my
finger in the sand, discovers no mercies !;
but let the thankful heart sweep through
the day, and, as the maguet finds tho
iron, so it will find, in every hour, some
heavenly blessings, only the iron in Gods
sand is gold.-O. w Holmes.

CHINA.-Mr. Caleb Gushing, who is
perhaps the best authority in the United
States on Chinese affairs, tells us that
China contains single provinces, each of
which-in population, wealth, civiliza-
ton; education, and all else that gives
power to State-is superior to England,
France, Prussia, or any other of the first
powers of Europe that the Empire has
100000, 900 inhabitants (more than all
Europe combined) that this inconceiva-
bly, vast population is governed by TIE
strongest, brightest intellccts of the land,
upon a system which was old thousands
of years before the oldest Governments
OF Europe began to exist; that educa-
tion is universal, even more general than
with us, there being absolutely no class
of people that cannot read and write !;
that the great body of the Chinese are
Intelligent, industrious, apt to learn any
thing and everything, frugal, pre-emi-
nently patriotic, and more profoundly at
taehed, perhaps, than the people of any
other nation in the world to their own
laws and institutions that China was q
great nation ages before what we call
the ancient nations OF Greece and Rome
had been founded, and has remained a
great nation, while its earliest cotempo-
poraries, Egypt and Assyria, are only
known imperfectly in the most ancient
of the earliest records of our race that
the Rothschilds, the Astors and Stewarts
among the millionaires OF Europe and
American are but pigmies in wealth com
pared to some of the great capitalists OF
China. ~. -lI
