An Outraged Devil.

The devil of the Providence Herald
is in bad way; in fact, he is on the
verge of insanity, and his friends ex-
pect him to become as driveling an
idiot as the editor. In an editorial on
"Youth and Age" it was POLITICALLY
stated that ''the advance of age, with
its accompaniments or diminution of
muscular strength, weakened sight,
withered looks, gray hair and totter-
ing steps, drives away the eff1OreScence
of youth. All fabled fountains of youth
cannot bring back the bright hopes,
the roseate dreams, the brilliant and
gorgeous shued visions which have been
lost+there can be no reviviscency of
that glorious past youth" When the
devil reached "reyiviscency," he went
into a corner and wept copiously. He
would not be comforted, but at length
heso conquered his emotion that he in
formed his sympathizers that he knew
he must be near death, or that he was
becoming imbecile since he could nc
longer understand the editor. He knew
the editor must mean something, but
he could not wool it; he consequently
thought that he himself was either
drifting to his grave with astonishing
rapidity, or with fearful velocity becom.
ing first class idiot. He knew that
one or the other was the case, as he
was positive the editor wasn't an idiot
At latest accounts the devil was in 6
low state, and it is feared he may com
NIT suicide, or kill the editor. The
latter would not be regarded as a ca
lamity in any well-thinking communi
ty. The man who could write sucI
stuff and use word like s'reviviscency'
is only fit to make stuffing for worms

An Ontical Cnriosity,

Here is a simple little experiment, by
which we can prove the existence of q
blind spot in our eyes. Shut your left
eye, and with the right one look steadi-
ly at the cross just below, holding the
paper ten or twelve inches from the
eye.
Z o
Now move the paper slowly toward
the eye, which must be fixed on the
cross. Alta certain distance, the other
figure, the letter o, will suddenly dis
appear; but, if you bring the paper
nearer, it will come again into view.
You may not succeed in the expert
ment on the first trial, but with a little
patience you can hardly fail, and the
suddenness with which the black spot
vanishes and re-appears is very strik-
ing. Now, examination has shown
that, when 1t disappears, its image falls
exactly on the spot where the optic
nerve enters the eye, thus proving that
spot to be blind.

IMPORTANCE OF READING.--No
matter how obscure the position in life
of an individual, if he can read, he may
at will put himself in the best society
the world has ever seen. He may con-
verse with the greatest heroes of the
past; with all the writers in prose and
poetry. He may learn how to live,
how to avoid the errors of his prede-
cessors, and to secure the blessings,
present and future, to himself. He may
reside in desert far away from the
habitations of man; in solitude, where
no human eye looks upon him. with
affection or interest, where no human
voice cheers him with the animating
tones, if he has books to read he can
never be alone. He may choose his
company, and the subject of converse
tion, and thus become contented and
happy, intelligent, wise and good.

What II. Greeley Knows
About Disunion.
In 1861,

| demanded that there
should be "a fair, open,
free discussion before
that Southern people,
and an honest, unterri-
fed, unconstrained vote,
and if they approved,
if the people of t h e
South said they want
ed disunion, / would
consent to it,
In 1872.
And now, to-day, if
the nation was to be
imperiled a n d there
were just two modes OF
saving ito trust to
the chances o f civil
war, or to the chances
of a free vote of. the
Southern p e o p | e---l
would very greatly pre-
fer to take the latter
chance than the former.
The above is the exact, certified
Photographic report of Horace Gree
ley's language at Pittsburgh in his
Western Swing Around the Circle,
both as to his position in 1861 and in
1872, as reported in the New York
Tribune.
