Duties Of Young Men to Society.

1t is the duty OF young men to do all
they can to elevate society.
TO do this they must be honest, in
dustri us, gentremanly, and charitable.
Honest: as this is the only way to
live happily. This has been proven by
the experience of many men; so, if
tempted to do a dishonest act, that
timely-honored maxim, Honesty is
the best policy" should enter our
minds with ten fold force.and we should
cast from us any thought or implca-
ton of dishonest import.
Industrious because it is our duty
to do something toward our own sup
port although we may have kink pa
rents, who will provide US With the
necessaries of life, yet. we should try
to improve our time in some manner,
so that we may benefit ourselves and
those around us. In the animal and
vegetable kingdoms, on this globe. we
see the young of either class provided
for, but, when they arrive at suitable
ages they are required to provide for
themselves. This is true. with the ex-
ception OF a few domestic animals
which man prosides for, but, by pro
viding for them, he finds their value
increased beyond what it would be il
they were in wild state, and he thus
receives compensation for his trouble.
II this is true of animals and vegeta-
bles. why is it not the duty of young
men to do something towards their own
support9
Wedo not pretend to say how this
shall be done; but every young man
should choose some occupation, suited
to lis taste, and labor industriously in
that occupation.
Gentlemanly: as by so doing we i'm
prove ourselves, and in the same degree
that we improve, those around us over
whom we have any influence. be 1t ever
so light, will improve.
Charitable for by being charitable
we can help many people over the hills
and rough places in life; it is not always
necessary to extend charity ip the foru
of worldly goods. but, be charitable in
spirit; have a feeling of sympathy fol
others 10 their Affections; though, i
charity in the form Of worldly goods
is required, do not give begrudsingly
but give what you can, remembering
that Bread cast upon the waters shal
Be returned again. "-fwsstern Farmer

Night Air not Injurious

There Is a popular prejudice con
ccrpinS the evil effects Of night air,
about which word must he said. In
her admirable writings on hygiene and
the management OF the sick, Miss
Nightingale has done much to correct
this mistake, 1t was formerly the
universal belief that the air OF night
was very injurious. But the fact is,
that, except under certain circumstances
1t is as healthful, or even more so, than
that Of the day time. The night air OF
large cities, such as London, when the
hustle and commoton which cause 1t to
be loaded with dust particles, is com.
palatively quelled, and the numerous
fires which contaminate it with their
smoke are mostly extlnguished. Is
purer than that Of the day. Nothing
conduces more to healthy sleep than
good ventilation, and no mode of ven.
tiation slfpasscs that obtained by
opening q window at the top, by which
the influence of draught is avoided,
while upper stratum of air, to which
impurities ascend, is certainly renewed
But there is still another reason for at
times adopting night, even in prefer.
ence to day, ventilation. In sultry
weather it is a common mistake to open
the windows instead Of keeping them
altogether closed, as is the case in very
hot climates. But little reflection
will show that since the hight of the
thermometer in the sun always greatly
exceeds that shown at the same time
by another thermometer placed in the
shade, by opening the window we ad.
NIT air much heated into Our rooms.
The proper time under such circum-
stances, for ventilation is during the
night, when the external atmosphere
has cooled down. By adopting this
plan in hot weather, the temperature
Of room may always be kept several
degrees lower than if the opposite
course is pursued - Good Health,

Marriage Extraordinary.

The little village of UniontowD, in the
township of Woodbridge, county OF Mid.
dlesex, and State of New Jersey, will
hereafter be memorable in the annals OF
fame, for having furnished the most ex-
traordinary double wedding of ancient or
modern times.
Mr.. Edwin Baldwin, the father, and Mr..
VIM. Baldwin, the son, both living and
doing business together in the city OF New
York, were the happy bridegrooms, and
Mrs. Ann Randolph, the mother, and Miss
Mary Randolph, the daughter, both living
together In the cosy home they have oc.
cupied for many years, in the said village,
were the more than happy brides. The
relations and friends of the happy parties
from the cities of New York, Philadel.
phia, Newark, Railway, and the more ad.
iacent places, like General Jackson's Cabi-
net, came together az "unit" at the ap.
pointed hour of 10 o'clock a. M, on Thurs.
day, the Gath Of March, 1870, to witness
this most novel and interesting wedding.
The perfect adaptation Of the happy cou-
Piles, the universal appreciation of all par
ties, and the brilliant day, all conspired to
make the occasion doubly joyful.
Such case, where the father and SON
were married to the mother and daughter,
at the same time, in the same room, by
the same clergyman, we think, is not on
record if it Is we should like to hear
from it.-Rahscay, ~ j., Advocate.

Ifsome of the ancient customs have

that sslls its own silent tale OF the sorrow
that Il within, and that breaches to rs the
|sel0quent, though oft unheeded, sermon OF
morality.
II the doors could only speak, what sto-
ries they could tell. OF warm and joyous
greetings; of gatherings and misgiv-
ings, as trembling hands rang the bell Of
cold farewells; of longing glances through
fearful eyes, that follow the departing
form of the loved one; of the letter that
brings Joy, and the message that brings
grief; of tender whisperings and loving
partings; of hllet-douS going out, and
bills coming in ; of gay weddings arriving,
and sad funerals departing Tell you,-
the door sees great deal Of life in its day.
1t sees your first visit TO the outer world,
borne in your nurses arms. You give it
stunning slam as, with boyish shout,
you hasten to your play and when you
"come to be q man." and learn to smoke
and drink, and, therefore, find it necessa-
~ to join a club, it sees you stumble up
the steps late at night, and laughs as you
try to find the keyhole-tickling it, as one
might say, with your night-key. 1t sees
you .otter out and totter in when you get
old, and at last closes upon your final de-
parture for your long home. Pray Heaven
that the eternal door you knock at then is
not shut upon you!
We did not know there was 30 much In
