With feeling of deep despair he enter
ed the house. The table was spread with
! the same favOrite dishes. There was
| the shOrtcake and toast, flanked with a
golden lump of butter, a plate of honey,
and dish Of roasted apples to be served
with sugar and cream, while at his
wife's plate sat the steaming teapot
/ As James took it all in at one glance,
he greatly wondered at the frugal yet
comfortable way Of living. How his
wife had been able to make the small
amount of money last so long, was a
mystery to him; and yet he could not
help wishing inWardly that she had
been more economical; then, perhaps,
the rent might have been paid; and he
felt that it would have been better to
have subsisted on one crust a day rather
than to be turned out of doors, home
less.
He refused to sit up at the table, plead
ing that he had no appetite. And great,
large tears arose in the strong mans
eyes as he informed his wife that on the
morrow they would be turned from their
home, to 90 he knew not whittier, as he
had not dollar in his pocket to secure
them even a room elsewhere.
rs that it% exclaimed the wife, in
soft rippling tones. And tripping up
stairs, she soon returned, and placed two
ten dollar bills in his hand.
Where did you get them" He eX-
claimed, turning them over and over in
his hands as though to ascertain Wheth-
er they were really genuine or not?
i earned them, replied his wife gay
ly. / knit sacks, hoods and socks, at
first only for those whom prOYidental-
Iy heard wished articles of the kind af-
terward was employed to finish trim
ming establishment with my work.
And kept it all a secret from me ?'-
Yes ; because I thought you would be
worrying for fear that I was doing too
much-. I love to knit, dearly, and con-
slider itmOre Of a pleasant pastime than
labor
God be praised for giving me such a
woman y exclaimed her husband ear
nestly and pressing wife and child close
ly to his bosom, he said: Her children
arise up and call her blessed; her hus-
band, also, and he praiseth her; for
many daughters have done virtuOusly;
but thou eXcellests them ALL
Twenty years have passed, and James
Hawley is a rich man. But Joseph
Smith is a confirmed drUnkard, while
his wife has long since passed from earth
a victim of misery and want.
Why will not all wives assist their
husbands to bear trials with helping
and willing hearts If they would but
do this, how many families would be
saved from ruin, and how sweet would
be their reward, not only on earth, but
in heaven.

I'M OLD TO-DAY.

An aged man. on reaching his seventeen brit
like one surprised, paced his room, ezclaiming
am an old man an an old man"
wake at last: I've dreamed too long:
Where are my three-score years and ten:
Ny eye is keen, my limbs arc strong;
wei might vie With -yOUAger men.
The world. its passions, and its strife.
Is passing from my grasp away,
Aud though this pulse seems full Of life,
I'm old to-day, I'm old to-day.
Strange that never felt before
That 1 had almost reached my goal:
Ny bark Is nearing deaths dark shore.
Life's waters far behind me roll;
And yet love their murmuring swell,
Their distant breakers proud array:
And must I, can 1, say "FarweIlg~
I'm old to-day, I'm old to-day.
This house is mine, and those broad hnds
That slumber meath yon fervId sky
Yon brOoklet, leading DER the sands.
Hath often met my boyish eye;
I loved those mountains when a child
They still look young in green array;
Ye rocky cliffs, ye SUBMITS Wild
I'm old to- day, I'm old today.
'Twixt yesterdays short hours and me
A mighty gulf hath interviewed;
A man with men seem to be,
But now Its meet I should be weancd
From all my kind, my kindred dear,
From those deep skies, that Landscape gay,
From joys and hopes I've cherished here;
I'm old to-day, In cid to-day.
o, man Of years! while earth rccedes.
Look forward, upward, not behind
Why dOst thou lean on broken reeds?
Why still with earthly fetters bind
Thine ardent soul? God gives it wings
Mid higher, purer joys TO stray
In heaven no happy spirits sings,
I'm old to-day, I'm old to-day.

Jenkins Goes to a Picnic.

Maria Ann recently determined to go
to a picnic.
Maria Ann is my wife-unfOrtunate-
ly. She had planned it to go it alone,
so far as I was concerned, on that eXcur-
sion; but when I heard it determined
to assist. She pretended she was very
glad; but I don't believe she was.

Federal Internal Revenue Tax Paid by

The above table is copied from page
24l of the report of the Commissioner Of
Internal Revenue. And it shows the as
tOnlshing fact that Ohio pays nearly one
million six hundred thousand dollars
more direct federal taxes than all the
New England States together. Yet
New England is vastly richer than
Ohio. Massachusetts alone -posessinr-
seventY-five millions more real and per-.

argument, as to how much protection is
necessary to enable our manufacturers
to fairly compete with foreign prOduc-
ers, to suit the sentiment Of every local
ity. AS to what degree of protection is
necessary to secure to our manufacturers
such fair competition, the resolution is
emphatically nOn-cOmmittal.
Evidently the party managers were
afraid to make a square declaration of
their principles upon this subject, end it
is really left to the candidates for Con-
gress' each for himself to take his own
position as to it; for we do not believe
that any uncertain UtteTance, such as
that of the State convention, will at
this juncture satisfy the popular demand.
The whole question of tariff is now re-
duced to this: Either the manufacturer
has a right to have his business made
more profitable by laws which, in eff
feet; compel people to pay more for his
wares than others, if permitted, would
sell for; or he has not. All questions as
to how much shall be so eXacted from
consumers for the manufacturers bOUn-
ty, are identical in principle. The peO-
pie understand it, and if we mistake not
will be apt to demand uneqUivOcal de-
fnitiOns as to the position upon it, from
every aspirant to Congress. Com.

Of ammonium for nitrate OF potash IN ordinary
