WHAT WE Owe TO POVERTY. Wealth owes to
poverty an immense debt Society is immensely
and everlastingly indebted to the poor who have
done its work, the long forgotten work on which it
builds and lives It is poverty that felled the for
ess, and planted the wilderness, and levelled the
hills, and made straight the paths in which we
walk. Poverty handled and trimmed and laid up
on one another every brick and stone by which
this city has been built up, stretched every tele-
geaph wire from Maine to California, twisted
every strand of the cable which binds the hemis-
pheres in electric communication
Directed by intelligence, it is true, but what
were the brain without the hands? Without
poverty, who would serve Us and do our work,
build our railroads and navigate our ships; and
procure the products by which civilization sub
sists? Let not wealth come in, and say, 1T is
my capital that has done all this" True, my
brother, but whence the capital? Hast thou then
spun it spider-like, out of thine own bowels?
That capital is also the product of poverty. Thy
capital is needed and moulded with the sweat of
thy brothers face. His years. his weary years, are
in it; it is carved out Of thy brothers life For
what Is capital but concrete abor-the labor Of the
past condensed and made portable? Poverty, not
wealth, has done the work. He is the great and
patient creditor of US all Poverty, hard-banded,
coarse-clad, followed, weather.scarred, shut out
from the palaces, and temples of thine own rear
ing, thou art our creditor. Who shall repay thee
thy long dues9 What reckoning will that be
when thou and wealth shall "meet at comptl"

ton to the rapid approach of our dread enemy.
This time he seemed determined not to be banked,
but came straight on for us. Again threw my
self on my back, and kicked and splashed with all
my strength, which had again the effect Of alarm
ing him, for he went right under us, and again
disappeared. Uttering short but fervent ejacula-
ton of thankfulness, again turned my attention
to the boats and beheld, with feelings no pen can
express, that at last we had been made out, and
that one of the cutters was fast pulling towards
U.s. But even as she came our peril increased, for
the shark was joined by another, and both kept
cruising, but few yards of, in circle round US.
My strength was rapidly leaving me, and I knew
that did once cease splashing all would be over
with US My companion was perfectly powerless.
Still continued to kick and splash, still the vora.
cous monsters continued their circular tract, some
times diving and going under US, to re-appear on
the other side but the cutter was fast coming up,
and they, suspecting what was the matter, gave
way with all their hearts and souls.
As she neared us, tho bowmen laid their oars
In, and began to beat the water with their boat
hooks. This was the last I saw. Nature must
have given out, for when I opened my eyes again,
I was safe in my hammock on board the brig A
good nights rest restored me to myself, but though
I have seen many shark since, ] can never look
on one without feeling my flesh creep, as it were,
on my bones

WHY IS THE PRESIDENT INAUaURATED ON THE
FOURTH OF MARcH?-We remember many years
ago, when child, (says the Vicksburg Herald,)
to have heard this intcrrogatory answered in the
declaration that in consequence Of the change oc-
casioned by the addition of one day every bissex-
tile or leap year, the 4th of March occurred less
often on Sunday than any other day of the week,
and for this reason was selected. Curiosity has
prompted US to make the examination, and we
find that, in thirty Presidential terms, from 1889
to 1905, inclusive, the 4th Of March has, and will
have fallen oftener on Sunday than any other day
of the week except Tuesday. Fhus, we have the
4th of March in those years coming four times,
each, on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
and Saturday, and five times each on Sunday
and Tuesday. The Federal Constitution was adop-
ted on the lst of March, 1889, but the first Presi-
dent George Washington, was not inaugurated
until April 80, 1889. Washington's second term.
commencing on the 4th Of March, 1893, fell on
Sunday, as lid also the term of James Monroe,
1921, and Zachary Taylor, lS49, all Of whom, we
believe were inaugurated on the 5th of March,
the following day. The 4th of March will also be
on Sunday in the years 1878 and 1905, completing
the thirty Presidential terms enumerated
