VARIETY.

ExvY.-The greatest Good has the soonest
ebb. the sorest temper the most sudden calm,
the hottest love the coolest end, and from the
deepest desire oftentimes ensues the deadliest
hate. A wise man had rather be envied for
providence than pitied for prodiGality. Re.
vengc barketh only at stars, and spite spurns
at that she cannot resch. An envious man
Wsxeth lean with the fairness of his ueighborE.
Envy is the daughter of pride. the author of
murder and revenge, the beginner of secret
ssditiOn. and the perpetual tormcntor of virtue.
Envy is the filthy sediment of the soul-a
venom, a poison. or quicksilver-which con,
sumeth the flesh and drie,h uP the marrow of
the bones.

The following incidVnt, related by one
who stood in u position t" know the crr-
cumstances, aud deserves to put on record
as testimony of the good nature Of the
President or his subordinates Some
weeks since n New York lady wrote to
the President, to- whom she was n total
stranger, stating that her son was abroad
and that she desired him To return IN
season for Thanksgiving, and asking him
if he would be SO kind rs to tell her what
day he designed TO appoint for that
festival. In due time came reply from
o secretary or somebody 10 the effect
that the day was not yet fixed upon, but
that it would be shortly, and that she
should be informed of it at least week
in advance Of the issuing of the usual
proclamation. And sure enough there
soon followed second letter apprising
her OF the appointed day. Whether she
succeeded in getting her boy home from
foreign parts in season to eat turkey
with her we are not able TO say, but il
was very kind thing in the folks at the
White LIoNse to do what they could &c
help her. -tt.f

DE&ocRATIo ScuEMEs.-T The demo
cratic leaders are full of schemes "ior
the defeat of Gen. Grant" next year.
The democrats in Congress, however, do
not seem to- be so favorable 10 the new
scheme of eleuling conservative Re-
publican, as some of the prominent demo-
Gratis outside of Congress are. Apromi-
nent western democrat in the uouse in
conversation with Now England Sena-
tor upon this subject, among ether
things said, 81 hear great deal about
'disatfccted Republicans but where is
there one, unless it be Carl Schurz ? DO
YOU hear Of one prominent Republican
in Congress who will decline to vote for
Gen. Grant if he is nominated Then
why should the democracy abandon their
organization ? 1t seems they are not
sure of gaining anything by it. But
more than this, tie democra,ic leaders,
as they are called, cannot hand over the
party to whomsoever they please, and il
ten per cent. of the common voters de-
cline to adopt the proposed scheme, it
will be failure" This western demo
crat seems to possess what many of the
party are bereG oi-common sense and
sagacity.
