Our Turn Must Come.

GENERATION after generation, says a
fine writer have felt as we now feel, and
their lives were active as our own. They
passed like vapor, while Nature wore the
same aspect of beauty as when her Crea-
tor commanded her to be. The heavens
shall be as bright over our graves as they
now are arotnd our path. Yet little
while, and all will have happened. The
throbbing heart will be stilled and shall he
at rest Our funeral will find its way, and
prayers will be said, and then we shall be
left alone in silence and darkness for the
worms. And II may be short time we
shall be spoken OF, but the things of life
will creep in, and our names will soon be
forgotten. Days will continue to move on,
and song and laughter will be heard in the
room in which we died; and the eye
which mourned for us will be dried and
glisten again with joy, and even our chill
dren will cease to think of us, and win
not remember TO lisp our names

The Pulse.

Tho pulse Of healthy grown person

may be good health down to sixty; but II
tho pulse always exceeds seventy, there
Is n disease-thc machine Is working too
fast; Il Is wearing itself out; there is ic-
yer or inflammation somewhere, and the
body Is feeding on itself, rs In consump-
ton. where tho pulse Is always quick.
that is over seventy, gradually increasing
with decreased chances OF cure, until
reaches 10 or 120. when death comes be-
fore many days. When the pulse Is over
seventy for months, and If there Is even
slight cough. the lungs are affected. Every
intelligent person owes II TO himself To
learn from his family physician how 10
ascertain tho pulse In health; then. by
comparing Il with what II Is when ailing.
he may have some idea of the urgency OF
his case. and IL will be an important guide
tn tho physician. Parents ought Ia know
the healthy pulse Of each child; as, now
and then, n person Is born with pccul-
iarly slow br fast pulse. and tho very case
In hand may be that pcculiarity. An In
filnt's pulse is one hundred and forty; u
child OF seven years about eighty; from
twenty TO sixty years II Is seventy heats n
minute, declining to sixty ut four-score.
There are pulses all over tho body, but
where there are only skin and bone, rs Mt
tho temples, Il Is most easily felt. The
wrist Is the most convenient point. The
fecblencss or strength Of the beats Is not
material. being modified by the fingers
pressure. Comparatively. rapidlty Is tho
great point; near death. Il Is one hundred
and forty and over. A healthy pulse I'M
parts to the finger feeling rs of woolcn
string; In fever II feels harder, like silk
thread; II there Is Inflammation, which Is
always dangerous. II beats fast, spitcfnl
and hard. rs if fine wire was tlrobbing
against the finger. When the pulse beats
irrcgnlarly. rs II Il lost u beat, then hur-
ried TO make Il up. there Is something tho
matter with the heart. But. however un.
natural you may think the pulse Is, do
not worry about IL; take nothing, do

The Swords and the Spoons.

The Democratic press have reiterated
tho story about Gen. Buffers thicvcry

they almost believe Il 10 be true. Il Is
not impossible that lie SO well stuck to
rs this has been may have found crcdencc

w. Shafer. who WAS Gen. Buffers chief
auartcrmaster, writes rs follows to the
Now-York Mail:
Gen. Butler and part Of his staff did
take possession Of Gen. Twiggs house.
and for brief period lived In u, until
more convenient quarters couldbc obtain
oil. Upon taking possession complete
inventory Of all effects and valuablcs be-
longing TO the absconding traitor Twiggss
wns taken by or,ler Of Gen. Butler. and
the property boxed up to await the action
of tho government. An inventory oil tho
furniture Of the house. rs well rs that OF
MI other abandoned houses, was made by
the Provost Marshal. who was held re-
sponsible for lis safe-kceping. That was
the course pursued toward property OF oil
descriptions abandoned by rebel owners.
No other property Of any kind was ever
seized, to my knowledge. When Gen.
Butler was relieved he requested Gen.
Banks Ia detail an officer to examine and
make an inventory ofdH the plate which
fall into our hands by taking possession
of abandoned houses. Gen. Banks prompt
IL detailed Capt. Mcclure of his personal
staff 10 take possession Of and receipt for
this property, and to my certain know
ledge. when rcceipted for. every article
on the original inventory was there. Gen:
Butler has, and has always had. this staff

fed copy Is fled rs the usual voucher In

property which fell into tho hands of Gen.

RICHMOND COLLEGE-lHPoRTAET CHANCES
i-THE CoMmEsCEaENT.-Atth the last annual
meeting Of the Board OF Trustees of Rich
mond College the most important business
transacted had reference TO the change OF
the system of instruction and discipline
from that usually adopted in colleges to that
of the University Of Virginia and other IN
stitutions in this country and Europe. ihiS
system dispcnses with president ana
places the control OF the institution In the
hands of the faculty, with q chairman
chosen from among themselves. At the re-
organization of the college, after the war;, 1t
was resolved to adopt this system, but the
trustees were induced to delartfro II ana
to establish 4 mixed plan, with president,
hoping thereby the better to secure an en-
dowment. After trial of the mixed plan
for several years, the Board, becoming con-
yinced that the interests OF the college de-
manded it, resolved, ut previous meeting,
to adopt the full University scheme.
The resignation of Rev. DR.. Jones OF his
profcssorship was accepted, but resolutions
expressive of the Boards apprcciatioh ol
his abilities and labors were UNANIMOUSLY
adopted. DR.. Jones has accepted the l'aslo-
rate of 4 church III Norfolk. .,,
Arr,norments have been made for filling
Temporarily the chair of Moral Philosophy,
and the friends of the College look forward
with confidence to It's increasing prosperity
The Faculty, with the exception OF Pro.
| fessor of Moral Science, will be unchanged
! In this connection we may repeat that the
commencement exercises at Richmond Col
lege will begin on the 2Sth instant. On that
day Hon. Hugh w. Sheffcy will address the
literary societies, and on the 1st of July the
alumni address will be delivered by Rev
| William L. Hatcher, Of Petersburg.
