Young Democracy.
But one section of the bill was read

TEA AND COFFEE.

Taking into account the habits of the
people, tea and coffee for supper and
breakfast add to human health and life, if
a single cup be taken at either meal, and
is never increaaed in strength, frequency
or quantity. Ifthey were mere stimulants,
and were taken thus in moderation and
with uniformity, they would, in time, be.
come either inert, or the system would
become so habituated to their employ
mept as to remain in the same relative po-
sition to them, as if they had never
been used; and consequently as to them
selves, they had better never been used, as
they are so liable to abuse. But science
and fact unite in declaring them to be nu-
tritious as well as stimulant; hence they
will do new good to the system every
day, to the end of life, just as bread and
fruits; hence we never get tired of either.
But the use of bread and fruit is daily
abused by multitudes, and dyspepsia and
cholera morbus result; yet, we ought not
to forego their employment on that ac-
count, nor should we forego the use of tea
and coffee because their inordinate use
gives neuralgias and other ailments.
But the habitual use of tea and coffee,
at the last and first meals of the day, has
another high advantages productive OF
incalculable good in the way of averting
evils.

BEL AIR. MD FRIDAY MORNING, DECEMBER %, 1870

rivalry existed among them. The young
ladies, taking advantage of the feeling
among their friends, got off some rare prac-
tical jokes on the ardent youths, of which
quite number of these had offered them
selves and been rejected, going off and
marrying other girls who were more anx-
ious to get husbands. However, at length
the maidens appointed day, stating at that
time they would select husbands (only one
each), and requested full attendance OF
their suitors in the marble hall of the castle
upon that day. Such throng as was as
sembled in that room at the appointed hour!
Every knight had on the best suit of
clothes his tailor could prepare, and made
the best appearance possible. After wait
ing considerable length of time without
there being any signs of the appearance of
the fair ladies, the gentlemen began to get
impatient; and as time wore on, and hour
was added to hour, their anxiety was not
to be kept in bounds. At this juncture,
sounds Of merriment from without attrac-
ted their attention, and upon going to the
window they discovered skiff quitting
the shore, in which was seated the seven
sisters, who, with loud laughter, babe the
gentlemen farewell. Curses, not loud but
deep, were uttered by the victims of this
cruel sell, and, as one man, they rushed to
the waters edge, where they witnessed q
scene the young ladies had not calculated
upon. The boat struck o rock and went
down, the maidens with it and from the
water there Immediately arose seven rug
ged rocks-which noticed in the river
about this point, while the water was low.
These are called the "Seven Sisters"
Soon after the "Seven Sisters" we pass
Lurley, on the right bank, with its famous
echo, and little further on, st. Goar, on

This was built in 1916, and was blown up
by the French in 1894.

The Cat and the KANGAROO.

The cat is called domestic animile
but never hav bin able few tell where
fore.
fou Kant trust one emmy more than vol,
kan case of the govt. There il only one
mortal thing that you kan trust cat with,
and cum out even, and that liz bar of
hard SOAP
They are az meek az mosiss, but az full
of devilty az Judas Iscarratt.
They will harvest dozen oy yunp chick
ems for you, and then steal into the sitting
room, az softly az an undertaken, and Law
themselves down ON the rug, at yure feet,
full ov injured innocence and chicken and
dream of their childhood DAYS.
All thare IL about cat, that il domes.
tlk, that L kno ov, IL that yu kant lose
one.
You kant looze cat--they are az hard
to looze as bad reputation.
You may send one out NV the State dun
up in meal bag, and marked sc. o. d."
and the next morning you will find him,
or her, according tew sex,) in the same
old spot alongside ov the kitchen stove,
reddy to be stepped on.
Cats hav got two good ears for melody,
and often make the night atmosphear mel
odlous with their opera musk.
Bnt the most wonderful thing about q
cat that has been discovered yet is their
fear of death.
Yu kant induce one, by emmy ordinary
means to accept ov death-they aktooally
skorn tew die.
You may kill one az much as yu hay
a mind to, and they will begin life anew in
few minutes, with more flattering pros
pektus.
Dogs love, they carry their CREDENTIALS
in their faces, and kant hide them, but the
bulk OF a cats reputation lays buried in
their stumuk, az unknown tew themselfs
az emmy boldly else.
Thare IL only one thing about cat that

little money, well invested, will go crate
ways in cats.
Cats are plenty in this world just now.

HISTORY REPEATING ITSELF.

The following find in Sandwich Is
land paper which some friend has sent me
from that tranquil far-of retreat. The CO.
incidence between my own experience and
that here set down by the late Mr.. Benton
is so remarkable, that cannot forbear pub
fishing and commenting upon the para.
graph. The Sandwich Island paper says:
How touching is the tribute of the late
Hon. II. II. Benton to his mothers in
fiuence: "My mother asked me never to
use tobacco. l have never touched it from
that time to the present day. She asked
me not to gamble, and have never gam
bled. cannot tell who is losing in
games that are played. She admonished
me too, against liquor drinking, and what
ever capacity for endurance l have ut
present, and whatever usefulness | NAV
have attained through life, have attribu-
ted to having complied with her pious and
correct wishes. When / was seven years
of age she asked me not drink, and then
made resolution of total abstinence; and
that have adhered to it through all time,
l owe to my mother"
never saw anything so curious. 1t is
almost an exact epitome of my own moral
career after simply substituting grand
mother for mother. How we'll recollect
my grandmother's asking me not to use to-
bacco, good old soul. She said, "You're
at it again, are you, you whelp! Now
don't let me ever catch you chewing to-
bacco before breakfast again, or lay I'll
blacksnake you within an inch of your
lifer' have never touched it at that
hour of the morning from that time to the
present day. She asked me not to gamble.
She whispered and said: Put up those
wicked cards this minute two pair and
a jack, you numbskull, and the other fel-
lows got a flush"
have never gambled from that day to
this-never once--without "cold deck "
in my pocket. | cannot even tell who is
going to lose in games that are being
played, unless l deal myself
When was two years ofage she asked me
not to drink, and then l made rule of
total abstinence. That have adhered to
it and enjoyed the beneficent effects of it
through all time, owe to my grandmoth
er-lct these tears attest my gratitude. I
have never drank drop from that day to
this, of any kind of water.--Mark 7toaia in

CURE FOR LooKJAw.-A correspondent
of the Scientific american recommends tur.
pentine as a cure for lockjaw. He says
"Let any one who has had an attack of
lockjaw take small quantity of tarpen-
tine, warm it and pour it on the wound,
no matter where the wound is, and relief
will follow in less than one minute. Moth
ing better can be applied to severe cut
or bruise, than cold turpentine; it will
give certain relief almost instantly. Tur-
pentine is also sovereign remedy for
Group. Saturate piece of flannel with it
and place the flannel on the throat am
chest, and in every severe case three to fiv,
drops on lump of sugar may be taken in
wardly.

Our days are most uncertain days,
Some cloudy and some sunny,
Some given up to making friends
And some to making money.
few are happy, joyous days,
But these are much too rare,
When we in all true faith build up
Our castles In the air.
And there are days of retrospect,
When shadows come before,
When we retire within ourselves,
And softly shut the door.
A lock of hair, some faded lines,
To heart and memory dear,
Will often change to Thoughtful days
Our pleasant days of cheer.
And there are days-oh, listen not
Sweet angels up above!
When passion rankles in our breasts,
And not q drop of love-
When all our steps seem downward steps,
And sinful all our ways;
And these we call, and well we may,
Our dark and evil days.
But then We have our blessed DAYS,
The sweetest of the seven
Tho days oflove and peace and 10y,
Ruled DER by holy Heaven,
SO may our future days like these,
BY fostering love be blest,
Until on yonder golden shore
