TRUE.-An exchange gets up the fol-
lowing: The boy who turks and lounges
about with gang annoying families, or
who INDUCES in the wicked habit of in
suting persons who pass by his louuging
place, or in asasultiug people who give no
offense, or who thinks it the proper sort OF
thing to take a drink when he is Out for a
" spree at night, or on Sunday, is in con-
slant danger Of just the kind of rows aud
broils that end in bloodshed and murder
At one erd of his career, is this habitua
lounging, loafng, disorder, dissipation OIL
ruffianisnl. and the other. if he keeps on
in the same path, is the prison Or the gal

German Proverbs.

One has only to die to be praised.
Handsome apples are sometimes sour.
1t is not enough to aim you must hit.
Little aud often make heap in time.
1t is easier to blame that to better.
Would you be strong conquer yourself
To change aud do better are two differ
eut things.
Everybody knows good counsel except
him that needs it.
Better free in foreign land than a serf
at home.
Better go supperless to bed than run in
debt.
There is no good in preaching to the
hungry.
Charity gives itself riches, but covetous-
ness boards itself poor
The sun-dial only counts the brightest
hours.
Piety, prudence, wit and civility are the
elements Of nobility
Gods mill goes slowly, but it grinds
well.
High houses are most empty in the upper
story.
A hundred years of wrong to not make
an hour of right
More are drowned in the bowl than in
the sea.
The fewer the words the better the
prayer.
With patience and time the mulberry
leaf becomes silk gown.
Take the world as it is and not as il
ought to be.
Speak little. speak truth, spend little Pay
cash
Our neighbor's children are always th'
worst.
Forgive thyself nothing and Others
much.
Truth may be suppressed, but can not b
strangled.
What comes from the heart goes to tn
heart.
When God means TO punish nation b
deprives the rulers of wisdom.
He who blackens others does not white
himself.
Take care of your plow aud your plo,
will take care of you.
He who avoids small sins does not ia
into large ones.

The Power Of a Word.

A mother on the green hills of Yer
mont, was holding by the right hand
son sixteen years old, mad with the love
Of the sea- And as she stood by the gar.
den gate one morning she said
Edward they tell me, for never saw
the ocean, that the great temptation of
seaman's life is drink. Promise me, be-
fore you quit your mothers hand, that you
will never drink"
And" said he (for he told me the
story,) " gave her the promise. and went
the globe over, Calcutta, and the Mediters
ranean, San Francisco, the Cape OF Good
Hope, the North and South Poles. l saw
them all in forty years and [ never saw
glass filed with sparkling liquor that my
mothers form by the gate did not rise up
before me and to day l am innocent of the
taste OF liquor" -.
Was not that sweet evidence of the
power of single word Yet that was
not half For" said he, yesterday
there came into my counting room man
of forty years, and asked me:
"Do you know me
"No"
| Well,' said he, L was once brought
into your presence on ship drunk !;
you we're passenger; the captain kicked
we aside, you took me to your bearth, and
kept me there till slept Oft the intoxica-
ton you then asked me il l had a mother.
| said had never known word frcm her
lips. You told me of yours at tie garden
gate, and to day [ am master of one of the
finest packets in New York and came
to ask you to come and see ule."

beams That mothers word on the green
bill of Vermont O, God be thanked fol

PRETTY GIRLs.-An Eastern paper writes
thus plainly about pretty girls: 1T may be
set down as n general rule that the pretty
girls are those who dress the plainest; pretty
girls do not require the extra adornments of
dress. Whenever, therefore, we see one of the
gaudiy arrayed creatures of fashion, our mind
is at once made up that she is not naturally
beautiful. Every rulc has its exceptions, and
there are doubtless exceptions to this one
but in its general application it will be found
to be pretty correct.

THE counterfeit swindlers are now located
in Illinois. They send note to their victim,
inclosing genuine twenty-five cent piece Of
postal currency as d" sample" and offer to
sell the same at counterfeters's prices. The
victim tries it at bank, and finds it n sure
thing and safe. He sends ON $40 to $50 for
four times the amount in counterfeits. That
is the last he hears of the matter.

STREET PEDDLERs.-Peddlers are nuisances,
and especially are those peddlars nuisances
who go round the town ringing the door bells
of houses, and leaving circulars marked " to
be kept until called for" These circulars are
not always of a kind to be seen by ladies and
children, and their effect upon some men might
not be beneficial. Ike only way to manage
these fellows is not to return the paper. Give
orders that it be destroyed as soon as received,
or better still, hot eceivtd at all. Not all of
these perambulating individuals are honest,
and it is well in every.case never to allow them
to pass the front door. They have no legiti-
mate business in the house. Their goods are
in the main worthless, and if powders, soap,
etc., are often poisonous. Have as little to dc
with them as possible.

THE RIcH MAN-Who is dogged in the
streets and knocked down at midnight :?
The rich man. Whose house is broken into at
midnight ? The rich mans. Who has his
pocket cut out and his coat spoiled in a crowd
The rich man. Who is i'll doubt whether the
people are laughing at him in their sleeves
when they are eating their dinner ? The rich
man. Who adds to his trouble by every story
which he adds to his house ? The rich man
for the higher he ascends the colder is the at
mosphere. bank breaks, and who suffers I?
The rich stockholIer and depositor. War
blows his horn, and who trembles? Death ap-
proaches, and who fears to look him in the
face! Why the rich man-and yet all the
world envies the rich. Depend upon it, the
length of your face will always be governed by
the length of your purse. If you live in a
two-story house, be thankful and not covet the
loftier mansion of your neighbor. You but
dishonor yourself and insult your destiny, by
fretting and repining. Notwithstanding all of
which, we would be willing to risk it, if only
for the sake ofa change.
