NOTHING AT ALL IN THE PAPER
TO-DAY.


The following is somewhat sarcastic Oh
that class of discontented, grumbling news
paper readers, who can "never find any.
thing in the paper worth reading"
Nothing at all in the paper to-day!
Only n murder somewhere or other
girl who has put her child away,
Not being wife as well as o mother.
Or drunken husband beating g wife,
With the neighbors lying awake to listen;
Scarce aware he had taken life,
Till in at the window the dawn-rays giisten.
But that is all in the regular way
There's nothing at all in the paper to-day.
Nothing at all in the paper to-day!
To be sure there's woman died Of starvat ation
Fell down in the street-as so many may
In this very prosperous Christian nation.
Or two young girls with some inward grief
Maddened, have plunged into the inky waters
Or a father has learnt that his sons & thief
Or mother been robbed OF one of her daugh-
ters-
Things that occur In the regular way
There's nothing at all in the paper to-day.
There's nothing at all in the paper to-day,
OnleSs you care ABOUT IN tue
How great rich rogues for their crimes must pay
Through ali GeLtility cries out 'pityr'
Like the meanest shop boy that robs a till
There's a case to-day, If I'm not forgetting,
The lad only Borrowed" }" as such lads will
To pay some money he lost in betting.
But there's nothing in this that's out Of the way
There's nothing at all in the paper to-day.
Nothing at all In the paper to-day
But the Births and Bankruptcies, Deaths and
Marriages,
But Lifes events in the old survey
With Virtue begging, and Vice In Carriages
And kindly hearts under ermine gowns,
And wicked breasts under hoddengr
For goodness not only belongs to clowns.
And DER others than lords does Sin bear sway.
But what do read ?-"drowned! wrecked! :" Did
Isay
There Was nothing at all in the paper to-day?

ten pins &e. as healthy games. He
would not advise any young man to 90
to a billiard saloon but billiards in a
private house, away from all dangerous
associations, was healthy and beautiful
game. 1t might be described as the
gentlemen's game, and was specially ad-
vantageous to sedentary men. Rowing
was good. American men did not walk
enough. He could speak from expert
ence of the delightful freedom and exhil-
aration of long, bracing walks In his
college days he made tour of New Eng
land, and he could walk thirty miles a
day with tolerable ease. On one occa-
sion on going TO the house of certain
family, he walked fifty miles and did not
feel it. Of the horse he spoke earnestly
and eloquently. 1t was not cruel to
race a horse. but it would be to race an
OK. No man knew horse from behind
but from atop. Horseback riding was
the thing. lie was opposed to the turf
because it is hopelessly given over to the
gamblers. 1t was not kept up, as pre-
tended, to improve the breed of horses.
but to perretrate betting the bet was
the marrow OF the race. Some persons
said why not reform" Whenever an
amusement became demoralized it was
cheaper to let it die than attempt 70 re-
form it.

Rev. Mr.. Beecher delivered lecture
at Music Hall, Boston, last week We'd
nesday evening, on ''Rational Amuse-
memts." From a very full abstract in
the Journal we copy the following para
graphs:
Some persons regarded amusement as
mere indulgence. Amusement was the
very counterpoise of care, and one of its
deadliest enemies. Care was like some
siimuiants, dangerous ill excess, but BEN
eficial as a medicine. Moderate care
stimulated every function; excessive care
turned a man into pin-big at the head
slender in the middle, and sharp at the
point it made Il woman like needle
all eve and slenderness, and she never
could grow fat. Whoever slew care
wounded death-and therefore blessed be
amusement, which God designed for that
very end Laughter was sometimes bet
ter than praying, and brought men near
