In the course of his after dinner speech
at the late commencement of Williams
College, the venerable poet, William
Cullen Bryant drew this beautiful, yet
sad. contrast between old age and youth
as typified in himself and The young
men about him: ..-r> s.l
It has occurred to me, since /, in the
decline of life, came to visit once more
this seat of learningin which our youths
are trained to succeed us on the stage of
the world, that L am in the situation of
one who, standing on IA spot desolate
with winter and dim with twilight,
should be permitted by a sort of miracle
to look upon a neighboring region glori-
Gus with the bloom of spring aud bright
with the beams of morning. On the side
where L stand are herbless fields and
ieafiess woods, pools sheeted with ice, Il
frozen soil, and the shadows of approach
ing night. On the side to which look
are emerald meadows, fields of springily
wheat, orchards in bloom, Transparent
streams, and genial sunshine. With
me, 1t Is toe late for any further hopeful
tiilage, and IL the plough were put into
the ground its coulter would be obstruct-
ed by the ice-bound .sods. On the side to
which [ look 1 see the tokens of Judi
cious cult walton and careful attendance,
secompensed by free and promising
growth. rejoice at the kindly care
thus bestowed, and my hope and prayer
is that under such auspices all. the
promise which meets my eye may be
amply fulfilled, and that from these
luxuriant fields a harvest may be gath
cred richer and more abundant than
has ever yet been stored in the granaries
of our land

"A moment ago he was playing with

"What are you there for ?" asked his
mother, opening the door and looking

"Come out to your little cart, said
his mother: Is waiting for another

20, when mother told you not to?-
Green currants will make my little boy
sick, said his mother, in sorry tone.
'You needn't punish me, said Allen,
az punish me my own SELF"
His mother sften put him in the back
parlor alone when he had been naughty
boy, and you see, he took the same course
with himself.
"Are you not sorry for disobeying
mother ?" she asked Allen.
"I sorry, but sorry not mutt. stay
here good while and have thinks"
Is Allen not right? Sorry, if it is
only sorry, is not enough. How often
children say they are sorry, and yet go
short shallow sorry. Allen felt this and
so he is for making serious work of it,

Phystoxno,rny,

LII is said that any nose which is less
than the height of the forehead is an in
dicatiOn of detective intellectual power
The eyes indicate character rather by
their color than form. The dark blue
are found most commonly i'm persons of
a gentle and refined character, light
blue and gray in the rude and energetic.
Layater says: Hazel eyes are the more
usual Indications of y mind masculine,
vigorous and profound; just as genius,
properly so-cslled, is almost always as
sociated with eyes of yellowish cast,
bordering on the hazel" The higher
the brows rise the more their possessor
is supposed To oe under the influence of
feeling, and the lower the better con-
trolled by his Reason. A very small eye
brow is an ind cation of want of force of
character. A tslerably large mouth is
essential to vigOr and energy, and q
very small one is indicative of weakness
and Incidence. In u manly face the
upper lip should extend beyond and
dominate the lower. Fleshy lips are
often found associated with voluptuous
and meagre ones with passionate ma
ture. The retreating chin indicates
weakness; the perpendicular, strength;
and the sharp, acuteness of mind.

Moderate and E..e...v. pr,..,...

Rev. VIM. Godell thus declares in ref
erence to the various shades Of drinking:
(which is most destructive of health
and life, drunkenness or moderate
drinking? Nest people will answer
drunkenness. But what are the facts?
A man may get beastly drunk-as some
do-once month, vomit out the poison,
sleep off the effects, and be sober all the
rest of the month. Drinking nothing
till the fit comes on again. Such 3 man
may do more business, do 1t better, pre-
serve better health, and live longer than
the moderate drinker, who never gets
drunk, never vomits out the poison,
keeps it all within him, adding little
to It daily till it undermines his consti-
tuition, so that he readily falls . prey to
all manner of diseases, without vitality
enough to recover from them. He dies
a moderate drinker, never suspected OF
intemperance, much less ranked among
drunkards, vet losing his life In conse-
quence of his moderated drinking. Sci
entific and experienced sphysieians en-
tertain these views, and are of the opin-
ion that more than half Of those who
die in consequence of drinking alcoholic
liquors die before they become confirmed
and downright drunkards. Herald OF
Health. -....-r .....-. ..f.,..

A spl.naia Prescription.

On certain occasion, one Paul Dem
ton, Methodist preacher in Texas, ad-
vertised barbecue, with better LIQUOR
than is usually furnished. When the
people assembled, desperate in the
crowd cried out, Mr.. Paul Denton,
your reverence has lied. You promised
not only a good barbecue, but better
liquor. Where's the nquor?'
'Therep answered the missionary, in
tones of thunder, and pointing his long,
bony finger at the matchless double
spring, gushing up in two strong COL
umns, with sound like shot of joy
he repeated with lock terrible as light
ming, while his enemy actually trem-
bled at his feet, there is the liquor
which God, the Eternal, breWs for all
his children
Not in nthesimmering still, over smoky
fires choked with poisonous gasses, and
surrounded with the stencil OF siekening
odor and corruption, doth your Father
in Heaven prepare the precious essence
of life, pure cold water. But in the
glade and grassy dell, where the red
deer wander and the child loves to play,
there God brews it; and down, low down
in the deepest valleys, where the foun-
tain murmurs and the rills sing; and
high up in the mountain tops, where
the naked granite glitters like gold in
the sun, where storm clouds brood and
the thunder storms crash; and out, out
on the wide, wide sea, where the hurri-
cane howls music, and the big wave
rolls the chorus, sweeping the march of
God-there he brews it-beverage of
life, health-giying water. And every
where it is thing of beauty, cleaning
in the dew-drop, singing in the summer
rain, shining in the ice-gems, till they
seemed turned to lyingjewels; spreading
a golden vail over the setting sun, or
white gauze around the midnight moon;
sporting in the cataract; sleeping in the
glacier; dancing in the hail shower,
folding its bright curtains softly around
the wintry world, and weaving the
the many-colored iris, that seraph's
zone of the air, whose warp is in the
rain drops of the earth, and cheekered
over with celestial powers of the mystic
hand of refraction-that blessed life
water; no poison bubbles on its brink;
its foam brings not madness and muir
der, no blood stains its liquid glass; pale
widows and starving children weep not
burning tears in its depth! Speak out,
my friends; would you exchange it for
the demons drink, alcohol?' ~
A shout like the roar OF the tempest
answered 'Ne!i m ...-- -.--+ $50.
This most beautiful of all descriptions
of water, has for many years formed the
chief beauty of Coughs Temperance

"Don't SPEAK So Cross"

Don't speak So cross" said one little
boy in the street to another. Don't
speak so cross-there's no use in iti"-
We happened TO be passing at the time
and hearing the Injunction, or rather the
exhOrtation--for it was made in an ex-
hOrtatory manner--we set the juvenile
speaker down as an embryo philosopher.
What more could Solomon have said on
the occasion? True, he has put it on
record that n :. soft answer turneth away
wrath )" and this being taken as true,
and every body knows it to be so, it il
evidence in favor of the superiority of
the law of kindness over that of wrath.
But our young street philosopher said
pretty much the same thing substan-
TALLY. when he said Don't speak so
cress; there's no use in it," On the
contrary, it invariably does much harm.
Is man angry it infiames his ire still
more, aud confirms in his enmity him,
who, by word and Q gentle and pleas
ing demeanor, might be converted into
friend. 1t is, in fact, an addition of
fuel to the flame already kindled.
And what do you gain by it? Moth
ing desirable, certainly, unless discord,
strife, contention, hatred, malice, and all
uncharitableness,b be desirous. The boy
spoke the words of truth and sober
ness " when he said "Don't speak so
cross; there's no use in it."-(Christian
Treasury.

The Ohio Democracy may learn some-
thing,if they will atentively consider
the drift Of the annexed paragraph from
the Louisville Jslrnal ~. .s-.... ..l.
There is 9 certainty that the elections
of the coming fall will be the last that
will ever take place in kentucky with
negro suffrage excluded. This is d fact
that we had better look square in
,theface, much ss we may ioathe its
visage.h Everybody kows that, inmedi-
ately after the reassembling of Congress,
the Fifteenth Amendment will be de-
clared to have been ratified by the re-
quisite number Of states and be O part
of the Constitution aud then all the
negroes of this State will be voters, and
nothing can exclude them from the polls
except successful war against the Uuited
States, and that, whether it would be
righteous or nnrighteous, will not be
attempted"

Female Su6raRe.

WoMEN possess the right to vote more
extensi seiy than is generally supposed.
In Austria women can vote as mobiles,
n their corporaCe capacity as nuns, and
as Taxpayers. u In some cases, however,
they vote by proxy. In Hungary, up to
184S, widows and single women who
were landed proprietors, possessed the
right to vote. They were deprived Of it
by the revolutionary Government, and
are now petitioning for the restoration
of this right. In Canada, as in several
of our own States, women are allowed to
vote for and serve as school trustees. In
the British Australian colony of Vic
toria, women, universally assumed the
right to vote about four years ago,
having found that the law had
been SO framed as to permit them. In
Sweden, chiefly through the exertions
of the late Frederick Bremen, an indirect
right of voting was in 1852 granted to all
women possessing specified property
qualifications. In Italy q widow, or
wife sepaI ated from her husband, may
vote if she pays taxes. Also, in Hol-
land, single women possessing property
are entitled to vote on all questions
likely to affect its value. In many
towns in France women possess and ex-
ercise the right to, vote in municipal
AFFAIRS. ui wi .sTFTl nifIl- t5n tH-at s'

AMERICAN ARcHIrECTURD.--A pres
elt we have no architecture, we build
well aud our streets show elepant and
commopius dwellings, costly and elsbo-
rate churches, solid-looking banks, plain
and useful public schools, gorgeous ho-
tells, and warehouses of every style; but
we look in vain for the expression Of an
origional idea-for the successful work
ing out of distinct purpose. We have
buildings in every Imaginable exagers-
ton Of bad taste and with every possi-
BILE confusion of rule, order and style
aggravatingly pretentious and provok-
ingly destitute of architectural fitness.
A Greek temple stands for custom
house, college or a bank; aprison is
represented by Norman keey or an
Egyptian temple court house re-
sembles barn or factory: and so most
of our public buildings might be inter-
changed without sacrifice or detriment
of any rule of architectural property or
asthetic feeling. g.-Lippincott's Magazine.
