We go our ways IN lie toS much alone;
We hold ourselves too far from ali our kind;
Too often we are deaf to sigh and moan;
Too often to the weak and helpless blind;
Too often, where DISTRESS and want ahina ,
We turn and pass upon the other eide.

BY footsteps passing idly all the day;
Where lie the bruised ones who faint and

Our selfsh hearts sfefor our feet the guido:
They lead US all upon the other side. -
It should be ours the; oil and wine to pour
Into the bleeding wounds Of stricken ones;
To take tho smittsn, and tho sick ana sore,
And bear them whore the stream OF blessing

Instead. we look about, the way is wide,
And 30 we pass by on the other eide.
Oh. friends and brothers. gliding down tho

dread power Of her frowh; fret under

"--t the intense
Reply OF hers to our intelligence"
Oft have wandered with enchanted,
steps, beside the limpid current OF thy
winding rill, whispering its soft music;
or sat in some lonely glade, on velvet
tuft of brightest green; or rested, after
long rambles in the woodland, in some
quiet nook, shaded by the untrimmed
eglantine, where the woodbine loved to
crawl and the timid wild flowers found g
lowly home. And in such haunts I learned
to feel the seductive pleasures of contem-
plation, and to revel in the tender com
panionship of objects ipanimate. The
modest greeting of the flowers were q
comprehended language to me; the
Eolean melodies swept by unseen hands,
in the green boughs of trees, became a
familiar music to my ear, and the upper
deep, with its white fret-work of clouds,
became an ineligible scroll to the eye,
imbued with the sweet contagion of its
own poetic inspiration. Thus my soul
drank in thy beauty, and nature no longer
wanted voice and life, for made of her
fair scenes
.'Idols, and out Of wild and lonely flowers,
And rocks. whereby they grew, u paradise,
OF waving trees, and dreamed uncounted

A Brave Helpmeet.

A city correspondent Of the ReBolatioR

about her in these words:
During the holidays, a few months back,
had occasion, in pursuit of Noahs arks and
other juvenile requirements, TO visit several
toy-shops In one Of these, as attendant, and
apparent proprietor, | found woman, who
was also a lady. She had been handsome,
and was still young, but she looked dragged
and careworn, as she well might, with fat
boy of ten months in her arms, little girl Of
less than three years pulling at her dress, and
an older girl Of seven or eight doing her best
to straighten out the articles disarrangcd by
customers | entered into conversation with
her, and expressed my surprise at finding
woman Of her apparent education and refiue-
ment in such a position. She told me that
her husband was studying for a physician,
that, to support the family and enable him to
do it, she had undertaken this toy-shop, and
she added, with great PRIDE have succeeded
beyond my expectation. do not intend he
shall be ashamed of us either, said she.
3 When spring comes on, | shall replace my
toys with fancy goods and little garments of
my own making, and | expect to make enough
to set him up as a physician in respectable
quarter, and then when he is established we
can ioin him, and no one will know anything

She looked at me in simple wonder! She

expresses the correct idea of true journalism
in these words "The true journal has a
mission of its own. When it becomes the
mere instrument of any party, sect or faction

breath of passion or anger, it degrades ITSELF

esty and industry; for your star faith, per-
severance and pluck, and inscribe on your BAN
ner, " BE just and fear not" Don't take too
much adyicei keep at the helm and steer
your own ship. Strike out. Think well of
yourself Fire above the mark you intend to
hit Assume your position Don't practice
excessive humility you can't get above your
level, as water don't run up hill-haul pota-
toes in cart over a rough road and the
small potatoes will 60 to the bottom. Ener.
Ky, inyincible determination, with a right mo-
tive, are the levers that rule the world. The
great art Of commanding is to take a fair share
Of the work. Civiity costs nothing and buys
everything. Don't drink; don't smoke /;
don't swear don't gamble; don't steal ;
don't deceive; don't tattle. BE polite be
generous; be kind. Study hard play hard
Be in earnest. BE selfrelant, Read good
books. Love your fellow men and your God
love your country and obey the laws love
truth love virtue. Always do what your
conscience tells'you to be duty, and leave
the consequences with God.

How TO be Nobody.

1t is easy to be nobody, and wewill tell you
how to do it. Go to the drinking-saloon to
spend your leisure time You need not drink
much now just little beer, or some other
drink. la the meantime play dominoes,
checquors, or something else to kill time, so
that you will be sure not to read any useful
book. If you read, let it be the dime novels
Of the day Thus 90 on keeping your stom-
ach full, and your head empty, and yourself
playing time-killipg games aud in few years
you'll be nobody, unless, (as is quite lkely,l
you should turn out drunkard or a profess
ional gambler, either Of which is worse than
a nobody. There are any number of young
men hanging about saloons, billiard rooms and
other rum shops, just ready to graduate and
be nobodies,

bility Of all the people engaging in the business
of law and notwithstanding, were they all
equally qualified, the founders OF our excellent
system Of Republican government, not only wise
ly, but Of necessity, constituted a system Of rep
resentatiye or delegate exercise Of power, conce-
ded to be inherent with the people. While they
are the source, or fountain Of power, the power
itself or the flowing currents, are the representa-
tiyes by whom for the time being that power IL
exerted When these fail to represent truly that
popular will at regularly appointed periods they
should be exchanged for Others who will represent
the people Hence the beauty and democratic
consistency Of our Vermont Constitution By its
provisions the people can hold their representa-
tiyes or delegates to accountability annually. b..

BRIGuAM YouNGs HARn.--The rooms of
the women are very much alike, and furnish
cd nearly alike. They are plain but comfort
able The women live in them precisely as
people do at a hotel. Each woman has her
own key, and when she goes out she locks her
door. There is little visiting back and forth,
aud the women behave very much as guests
do at a first class hotel. Every morning and
evening at the ringing Of the bell the in
mates Of the harem meet in the great parlor,
to attend prayers They sing hymn, and
Young prys ferventiy. The prophet used to
eat at the harem with his wives, but he sell
dom does now. In the morning, on rising,
each woman puts her room in order, and if
she has children dresses them for breakfast.
After prayers they all 60 to breakfast, the wo-
men with children sitting at little family ta-
hlcs, and those without children at the COM
mon table. The same food is given to all,
aud the bill Of fare is by no means poor one.
Brigham, from time to time, desgnates some
Of his wives to take charge Of the cooking,
and they remain on duty until relieved. Dur
ing the day the women walk out, sew, sing,
play the piano in the parlor, or walk with
the children. Most Of them spin, make cloth
aud color it. They are very proud Of their
cloth and embroidery In the evening all
hands 20 to the theatre, where every one Of
Brighams wives has reserved seat. 1t is
said that Young literally supplies his wives
with money, and on fine days they drive out
and 60 shopping. He employs music teach
er, French teacher and dancing master for
the use Of the household. Brighams women
are well-dressed, but still they have to work
hard, and he keeps up wholesome discipline
over them.-- Letter 10 Cincinnati GaEette.
