Only hundred muskets had been brought
into the building during the night: but
these, by happy s7ae, had been mal-
nifed in the estimation OF the mob into at

than q feather can withstand a whirlwind.
This was fully appreciated By the defenders.
and it was determined ,hat if the building
should stand over night, to load it up to
the muzzle in the morning Accordingly,
by the following noon IT was perfect arse
nal The first foor was barricaded with
bales Of printing paper, and provided with
a steam hose, that would have badly
;'scotched any intruder; and the second
story had at one Of the windows a small
cannon. loaded with grape aud canister, and
at the others, piles of hand grenades, ready
TO be hurled upon tie rioters The third
story was equally well armed and in the
larger editorial room were dozen forty
pound shells, with fuses shortened so they
would explode on striking The pavement.
These, with a brace or more Of muskets at
every window, and hundred and fifty de-
terminsd men. all under command of an ex-
perienced army officer, completed the arma.
ment Of the building.
This arsenal Mr. Greeley entered about
noon on the second day Of tie riot, and ma
king his way to the editorial rooms, he look

tions. What are thess2 be inquired. in

Yes, we know; but Col Adams now has

Without further remark Mr. Greely went
to his work, and all the day was knee deep
in eiitcrials and exchanges
Meanwhile noisy mob was in posse ssion

h5st people ike to be handsome. No
body denies the greater power any person
may have WHO has good face. and who
attracts you BY geod looks, even before a
word has been spoken. And We see ali
sorts Of devices in men and women to i'm
prove their looks paints and washes. and
all kinds Of cosmaticz. including plentiful
amounting with dirty hair oil.
Now not every one can have good fea-
lures They are as God made them:
but almost any one can look well espec-
tally with good health Il is hard to give
rules in very short space, but ia brief these
viii do.
Keep clean wash freely and univer-
saIly with cold water All the skin wants
IS leave to act freely and it will take care
Of itself It's thousands Of air holes must
DOT be plugged up
Eat regularly and simply The stom-
aeh can no more work all the time, night
and Day than horse; it must have rosu-
lar work and regular rest.
Good teeth are a help to good looks.
Brush them with soft brush, especially
at night Go to bed with teeth clean.
Of course to have white teeth, it is need
ful to let tobacco alone Every woman
knows that. And any powder or wash for
the teeth, should be very simple. Acids
may whiten the teeth, but they take off
enamel or injure it
Sleep in a cool room, in pure air. No
one can have a clean skin who breathes
bad air. But more than all, in order to
look gell-waks up the mind and soul.
When the mind is awake, the dull, sleepy
look passes away from the eyes I do not
know that the brain expands, but it seems
to. Think, read-not trashy novels, but
books that have something in them. Talk
with people that know something; hear
lectures and learn by them.
This is one good of preaching. 4 man
thinks and works and tells US the result
And if We listen, and hear, and understand,
the mind and soul are worked.
Ii the spiritual nature is aroused SO much
the better
We have seen plain face really glori-
fed by the love Of God and man which
shone through it.
Let US grow handsome.
Men say they can't afford books, and
sometimes they don't even pay for their
newspaper. In that case it does them
little good, they must feel 50 mean while
they are reading it.
But men can afford what they really
choose. II all the money spent in self
Indulgence, in huriful indulgence, was spent
in books, self improvement; we should see
a change Men would grow handsome and
women too. The soul would shine out
through the eyes. We we're not meant to
be mere animals
Let US have books aud read them, aud
lectures and hear them, and sermons and
heed them

DEDICATION.


lfthas indeed were fact which seems
\ pleasant universal fiction,
That's daily born Of youthful dreams,
Nor dies Of daily eouu addiction
That every mortal has a mate.
And counterparis 20 blindy creeping,
To End perchance, through fogs or fate,
The end Of all their weary hoping
I'd say Whatever have done
To manhood 5 earnest work betting,
Be consecrate to her alone
Who waits for me, though all upwittiug:
Who puts the signs of pain away,
Lest grief too soon her cheek should fur
row
Who beats temptation back to-day,
That may see some glad to morrow;
Who dare not plnck flower that grows
Beyond the path God spreads before her,
Nor ever think Of passing those
That bloom beside it 10 adore hess
Who strives to add .cubit yet
BY faith unto her moral stature
Dear soul lest should feel regret
AT finding less than mine her nature;
Whose hands train many trailing vine
That mine had rudeiy left % perish,
And ali ITS tendrils deftly twiue
In folds that failing years shall cherish;
Whose steps viii marx Iife's tune algsy.
Though mine have stumbled, failed, and
blundered
Whose spirit walks with mine TO day,
However far our feet ire srD6ered

The maxim that every man Is the arehi
tect of bis own fortune. has been striking
b. verified aud illustrated in the history Of
American statesmen. The following col
lection Of facts respecting some Of cur great
men may prove interesting
Very few of the fathers Of our republic
were the inhcritors Of distinction. Wash
ington was almost the only gentleman BY
right Of birth in all that astonishing compa-
ny Of thinkers and actors. Two or three
Eirginians, John Jay, Of New York, aud
half dozen meaner men from other proyin-
ces, were exceptions But Franklin was a
printers boy; Sherman, shoemaker; Knox
was book-biadcr; Green, a blacksmith;
John Adams and Marshall, the sons Of poor
farmers; and Hamilton, the most subtle,
fiery, and electrical, but at the same time
the most composed aud orderly genius Of
all. excepting the unspproachable Chief,
was Of as humble parentage as the rest, and
himself at the beginning, q clerk or shop
keeper And If we come down to a late pc
Rod, Daniel Webster was the son Of a coun-
try farmer, and was. rescued from the occu-
patton of a drover only By the shrswd OBJ
servatiou Of Christopher Gore, whom be
called upon for advice in respect to a diff
Guilty arising from the sale Of a pair Of steers:
John c. Calhoun was the son Of tan
ner and currier, the father Of Henry Clay
belonged to the poorer class Of Baptist min
listers: Martin Van Buren, during the ftful
leisure Of the day gathered pine knots to
light his evening studies; Thomas Corwin
was a WAGNER; Silas Wright, by heritage,
a machinist. In ater times We have had
Lincoln of the fat boat; johnson, the tailor;
Grant, the tanner; Wilson, the shoemakeT's s
apprentice; and many others among our
statesmen, who receive the applause and
reverence of mankind, passed their earlier
years, of what, in other countries, would be
almost impossible distance from the emf
nences which they now enjoy.
Al this Is encouraging for our aspiring
Young men who would dare and do, rather
than lean on the reputation Of their ances-
tors,
In the old monarchies the question is,
what is your pedigree; or who were your
proienitors Here, in our republic, the
question is, What have you done2 what are
you doing? at what do you aim? To do, to
grow, to improve, and become all that God
intended US to, Is our privilege, our right
and our duty God helps those who help
themselves.

ANEcDorE or DisRAELrs WIFE.

a story is told of Lady BeaconsGeld's de-
votion to her lord and bis ambition, which,
if true, + a touching commentary on the
unselGshHess of womanly affection. On one
occasion. when DisEacli yras Chanecllor cf
the Exehaquer, his wife accompanied him
toth2 Parliament House Itwas Budget
night -tha most momentous Of all session,
to the Chancellor of tbs Exchcquer, for be
had to unfold bis financial plans for the en-
suing rear % a critical and not too easily
satisfied House. Di,raeli, as he took his
place ia the carriage, was wholly wrapt up
in bis subject and his figures; it was a crisis
in bis career; If he failed this night, he
might veil take Wolsey advice to Crom-
vel, Fling away ambition His wife
entered the carriage also, softly, 50 as not
to disturb The thinker In getting in, how
ever, her finger was caught by the door,
which, shutting upon il, jammed il terribly
and bel3 j. SO fast that she could moi with
draw it. She uttered no cry, made no move
ment Ter pain and agony must have been
intense, There was the finger crushed be-
tween TIE psuels to speak or to endeavor
to withdraw it would disturb her lord
would drive the figures and arguments from
bis head. So there stayed the finger, every
moment more painful. until they reached
the House nor did Disraeli hear a word Of
it till long after the famous debate Of that
night had become history. All that evening
the faithful wife sat in the gallery. that her
husband quick glancing eye might not
miss her from 1t she bore the pain Ike a
martyr and like a woman who loves.
No wonder that by her husbands act She
has become Niscountcss Bsaeonsfeld still
less wonder that, as Lady BeaconsfeId, she
is honorad in England's 5 proudest castles,
and has taken her place in the hereditary
society as naturally and easily as if she too

WHAT ARE YoU LIVING FoR-A pastor,
walking out recently, met little girl be-
longing to his flock As they walked on
together, he spoke to her Of her studies,
and was pleased to see her manifesting an
interest, amounting almost to enthusiasm,
in the cultivation Of her mind.
''But why, Ellie, asked the pastor, are
you so anxious to succeed in your studies?
What do you mean to do with your eduea-
ton after you have got it

A MAIDEN FIRST LoyE-Human ma
ture has no essence more pure; the world
knows nothing more chaste; heaven has en-
dowed the moral heart with no feelings
more holy than the nasccnt love of q young
virgin souL. The warmest language of the
sunny South Is too cold to shadow forth even
faint outline Of that enthusiastic sentiment
And God has made the richest language
poor in that respect. because the hearts
that thrill with loves emotions are too
sacred for the common contemplation The
musical voice of love stirs the source of the
sweetest thought within the human breast,
and steals into the most profound recesses Of
the soul, touching the chords that never
vibrated before, and calling into general
eompanionship delicious hopes till then un-
known Yes, the light Of young maiden s
first love breaks dimly but beautifully upon
her, as the silver lustre of a star glimmers
through the thickly woven bower; the first
blush that mantles her cheeks, as she feels
the primal influences, is faint and pure as
that which a rose leaf might cast upon
marble But how rapidly does that light
grow stronger and flush deeper. until the
powerful efulgence of the one irradiates
every corner of the heart, and the crimson
glow Of the other suffuses every feature Of
her countenance.
