WEDNESDAY MORNING. SEPTEMBER g. 1860.

published, they make 8 goodly
show ; but when a few suns have
shone on them, the crystal jelly
melts, the glittering cupola has
vanished, and few meagre fbres
in your memory are all the resi-
due of the once popular author
ship. If you ever tried it, you
must have been struck with the
few solid thoughts, the few sug-
gestive ideas, which survive from
the perusal Of the most brilliant
of human books. Few of them can
stand three readings; and Of the
memorabilia which you had mar
ked on your first perusal, on re-
verting to them you find that
many Of them are not so striking, or
weighty or original as at first you
fancied. But the Word Of God is
solid it will stand thousand read
ings, and the man who has gone
over it the most frequently and the
most carefully is the surest of
finding new wonders there

Great Memory.

Some one has dished up the
following hash of great memories.
1t is dish strongly spiced with
the marvellous, and, as Western
men say, we think the compiler
had powerful recollection" B"
Mithridates, king Of Pontus, knew
each one Of his eighty thousand
soldiers by his rightname. Seneca
was able to rehearse two thousand
words, which were given to him,
in the same order. Hortentius
kept in his memory all the prices
paid on day Of auction. Hugo
Grotius, on being present at a
review Of some regiments in
Frame, recalled all the names of
the single soldiers which were there
called up. Justus Lipsius ventured
to rehearse the works Of 4acitus,
from the first word to the last,
forward and backward, even when
somebody was standing befor him
with a drawn dagger, to pierce
him at the very moment he had
forgotten but a word A Vene-
tian lady, we'll known by her cru
dition, when asked for the sermon
she had heard in church, repeated
scrupulously every word. Racine
knew by memory all the tragedies
of Euripides; Bayle, the whole
work of Montaigne; Hughes
Doneau, the Corpus Juris; Me-
tastasio, the entire Horatius; and
Carteret, Lord-Lieutenant of Ire
land, all the New Testament, from
the first chapter of Matthew to
the end of the Apocalypse. The
learned Scotchman, Th omas Demp-
ster, affirmed be knew not what
it was to forget and Scaliger is
said to have apprehended within
twenty-one days the whole HON
erus, and, within four months, all
the Greek poets.

"AND THEY PARTED."-While
on our way home few evenings
since, tired and weary, and saun-
tering along slowly, enjoying the
balmy evening air and delicious
moonlight, we were made to wit
ness a scene that made US feel call
overish." We cannot, Of course,
give names or say exactly where
they, or rather she, lives, but sut-
fee it to say that the locality is in
the city, and upon one Of our prin-
cipal streets. Two lovers sal upon
the front steps ofan elegant man
sion and, bathed in the shimmering
subdued light Of fair Luna, "buz-
zed" frst-class affection in each
others willing ears.
The steps upon which they re-
clined, together with the house
and lot, belonged to the father Of
the female party. 1t was no diff
fcult matter for the young man to
discover, by aid of the moonlight,
that the young lady was comely
and fair to look upon and, in turn
for the fair one to drink in the
lovclieness of a newly sprouted
moustache that sat upon his upper
lip as airly and lightly as a fairy
blue mold upon an ancient cheese.
The deep toned bell in the bcltry
of a neighboring church struck
soiemnly the honr of eleven.
"WiIl you always think kindly of
me, James ?" said she. James lift
ing up his voice, said he would !;
and relieved his mouth Of pom
derous, played out chew oftobacco
the juice Of which he had SOUR
ted over the steps on which they
rested. The young man then spoke

A DOMESTIC ROMANCE
CONCLUDED.
REUNITED AFTER FIFTY YEARS SEP
ARATION.

In our daily Of the 18th ult.,
we gave the history Of a romance
in real life, whose main facts it
may be we'll to recount. Samuel,
father of Rev. T. B. Eastman, of
this city, left Concord in 1919 to
better himself in Massachusetts,.
He left a wife and three children
behind, and finally went on a
whaling voyage. On his return
the family had left this city, and
no trace of them were to be found.
Fifty years passed away, the first
family had grown up, and Mr..
Eastman, ignorant Of their exis-
tence, had married again and
raised another family. By an &C
cident, Rev. Mr.. Eastman ascer-
tanned that his father was alive,
and following up the trace, found
and introduced himself to him,
and told the story of the past half
half century, so far as he knew
it.
The elder Eastman, his second
wife being dead, gladly heard the
tidings of the lost family, and he
came to this city on the 18th, to
renew the relations that chance
had so sadly sundered. He was
joyfully received by his grand
children, whom he had never seen,
and on the following day per-
formed his first duty that of Wis
itipg his mothers grave.
On the 18th, the aged wife, with
two of her descendants, arrived in
this city&om Nashua, and went
to the home of her son, where all
but one of her family now living
were gathered. The husband en-
tered the room, and they looked
at each other in silence for a mo-
ment. The old lady was the first
to speak, saying, "Is this Samuel
Eastman, my husband?" "And
my long lost wife ?" he added, and
they rushed to each others arms,
and kissed with all the ardor Of
sweet sixteen. By request of the
father, a prayer of thanksgiving
was offered over the happy re-
union by Rev. T. B. Eastman.
The old couple are now re.uni-
ted, and though the bloom of youth
has fed, both enjoy excellent
health and spirits. The old gen.
tleman's eyesight is defective,
owing to straining it at sea, but
he says he can throw a harpoon
or lance at whale as we'll as ever.
He has never had a doctor in his
life. The old lady is also in ex-
cellent health, but with impaired
hearing. TO both we wish years
Of continued health and renewed
happiness.-Conc0rd (N. H. Pa

Coon ExAMpLEs.-A paragraph
is gong the rounds Of tho papers
to the effect that one Of Com
modore Vanderbilt's daughter has
actually condescended to teach
her daughter to mend stockings.
There is no doubt that the lady
in question is a woman Of good
sense, who is aware that riches
are particularly liable to take
wings and fly away from Amer
lean holders, but where the won
derful condescension comesin, re-
marks the Cincinnati Gazette, we
cannot see. Every male member
of the royal house Of Prussia is
obliged to learn a trade, that he
may be able to support himself
should want overtake him; Queen
Victoria's daughters arc said to be
proficient in all departments Of
housekeeping. In the eyes Of those
silly females whose idea Of happl-
ness is concentrated on the posses
sion and profuse expenditure OF
money, all knowledge of kitchen
and the needle may seem vulgar,
but every sensible person must
know that it is just as becoming a
man to boast Of his entire ac-
quainlance with business and
manly pursuits as for a woman to
affect contempt for an ignorance OF
the duties Of her peculiar sphere.
It would be we'll if those who are
ostonished at the homely industry
of the Vanderbilts would learn
a practical lesson from their
example.

FIFTEEN GREAT MIsTAKEs.-lt
is great mistake to set up our
own standard Of right and wrong,
and judge people accordingly.
1t is a great mistake to measure
the enjoyments Of others by our
own; to expect uniformity Of opir-
ion in this world :; to look for
judgment and experience in
youth; endeavor to mold all dis
positions alike not to yield in
immaterial trifes; to look for per-
lection in a fallen world not 10
aim at perfection in our own ac-
tions ; worry ourselves and others
with what can not be remedied
not to alleviate all that needs al
deviation as far as in our power ;
not to make allowances for the in
tirmities Of others; to consider
every thing impossible which we
can not perform to believe only
what our finite minds can grasp
to expect to be able to understand
everything. The greatest Of all
mistakes is to live only for Time,
when any moment may lauuch us
into Eternity.
