The Good Ola Times.

How common it is for men to mourn over
the ,lrgrncracy Of the present. and speak Of
the ocn time NJ il virtue and rcll.drnah
philanthropy, morality aud Christianity hal
forever departed from thu earth, or were only
lingering behind ny the twilight fingers to
rrnind us Of the ouricS Of departing day !.
"Whcn was II boy, times were good"
some fos>ilizcd enemy Of progress will re.
mark, "but now, alas how changed is cy-
crythin.." Yes in'lccd, things arc changed !!
We agree with you. Mr.. Grumbler or Grum
Gruwdy but has it never occurred TO yon
that things have changed for the better ?
Your trails through the woods have given
place to nucaLamin,d roalS, your mud roads
to railroads, your canoes to steamboats,, your
swamp lands to rich, (crtilc bottoms, your
Ia: cabins to airy, comfortable hunSeS. Are
all these things evidences of deScncracy, Mr..
Grum or would you wish them ovcr,hrOwn
and replaced 10y the ruler improvements "l
the past ? "Ah," says Mr.. Grum, 81 don't
w.h any such thing, but do wish that the
people were rs honest now as they were when
was boy, or that they were as socIahlc.
All times have changed aud the people have
changed with them. People llav. grown col
anil selfish every man seems to care moth.
in: for others, but just lives for HIMSELF
Aha Mr.. Grum people were homes, in old
times, ch Well. SD they might he, fur in
truth there was not much to steal. They
were sociablc too, rh? Well, so they might
he when nri.hhor< often lived ten miles apart.
The times have changed truly, and people
have changed with them from being simple.
hearted, ignorant back woolSmcn, to he the
most enlightened nation Of the earth Irli.
~, Mr.. Grum there is no OCCASION for regret.
but rather for rejoicing in NIL this. ,.
And now, in conclusion, We would give
Mr.. (irnm little scriplural advice which we
think exactly suits his case "Say not TINT
the former days were better than these for
thou doSt not inquire wisely concerning
these things"
Quit your mnurnful. grumbling song.
Help the worl,t To move along:
Ii you resist the world will iluut YOU,
And surely move along without YOU.

luck, ono Of his friends who knew he had me.
chanical talent, hut doubted whether hc
could make himself useful either ns clerk
or salesman, put the intcrogatory to him
which We have placed as the caption Of this
article. Tho reply was; that q trade was not
SO respectable as q mercantile occupation.
Undor this dclusiyc idea, our stores orc
crowded with young men who have no ca.
pacity for business, and who, because Of the
G,ncicd responsibility Of doing nothing, waste
away their minority upon salaries which can
not possibly liqudntc their expenditures ;
Late, too late in life, they discover their
error, and before they reach the agc OF thirty,
many Of them look with envy upon tho
thrifty mechanic, whom, in the days.of their
boyhood, they were accustomed to deridc.
The false views Of responsibility which pre-
vail in the sol disaM fashionable society OF
the prescn, day, have ruined thousands OF
Young men, md will ruin thousands lnor.-
