Some people feel so anxious to
hear everything that will vex and
annoy them, they set about search
ing and finding it out. If all the
petty things said of one by needless
or ill-natured idlers were to be
brought home TO him, he would be-
come a mere walking pincushion,
stuck full of sharp remarks. !
should as soon thank u man for
emptying ON my head u bushel of
nettles, or setting loose Q swarm of
mosquitoes in my chamber, or rails
ing a pungent in my house general
ly, as to bring upon me all the tat
tie OF spiteful people. II you be
happy when among good men, open
your ears; when among bad, shut
them. 1t Is not worth while to hear
what your servants say when they
have slammed the door; what beg
gar says whose petitions you have
rejected; what your neighbors say
about your children; what your RI
walls say about your business or
dress. | have noticed that 8 well
bred woman never hears an imper-

deafness saves one from not a little
apparent connivance in dishonOra-

Pride has many victims I'm all
ranks Of human society. A cOlOred
woman died few days ago in Al
leghany City, Pennsylvania, from
the effects of white lead, with which
she was in the habit Of painting
herself in an attempt TO abolish the
distinction of her race, She poison
ed herself in the same cause with
the Louisville lady who ruined her
health by having her face enameled.
They were victims to the delusion
that the leopard might change his
spots.

Dress has a moral effect upon the
conduct of mankind. Let any gen
tleman find himself with dirty
boots, old surtout, soiIed neckclOth,
and a general negligence of dress,
and he will, in all probability, find
a corresponding disposition by neg
ligence Of address.

Don't GET IN DEBr.-For nv
own part, and 1 speak from expert
enee, Iwould rather be in State
prison, 8 slave in a rice swamp, than
70 pass through life under the har-
row of debt. Hunger, cold, rags,
hard work, contempt, suspicion, re-
proach, are disagreeable, but debt is
infinitely worse than them ali.-

A Pittsfield man recently borrow

melancholy occasion pawned the
beaver for sundry drinks, and the
lender had 10 "pay the shot" before
he could recover his ehapeau. No
more mourners need apply for that
hat.

We nlnst commend honest. inde-
pendent men, wherever we find
them. We must especially COM
mend honest, independent journal
ists-men who viii not be the organ
of any man or set of men, but who
viii be guided only by their own
convictions in the discussion ofpub-
lie Affairs. Hence we rejoice that
Horace Greeley has decided that the
Tribune shall not, hencefortb, be
the organ OF any party-that il shall
not stool to suppress truth, refuse
to commend what is good because it
may be il the interest of any class
of politicians to do so.
One calse OF our civil discussions,
our political WFangles, our failure
to elect the best men to Office, our
confusion kof political terms and
nomenclature, our injustice to hon
est men, our failure to support the
Wisest internal policy, our Inability
to vote intelligsntly, our distrust OF
politicians, anC of the general con-
fusion into which we are quadreni-
ally thrown in our efforts to secure
wise executives officers, is due to
the fact that We have had no free
and independent Press, with power
aud influence enough to tell the
truth and noihing but the truth.
1t is to us one of the evidences
that days of resignation are drawing,
when such 5apers as the Tribune
discard partisan allegiance and pro-
claim their aith in and allegiance to
the honest Intelligence and best in
terests Of tie people, regardless of
partisan purposes and politics. 1t
means the secession of one of the
greatest powers of corrupt centrali-
zation. 1t means a recognition of
the important fact that public inter
est are paramount to partisan sue
CESS 1t mans the dissemination of
truth and free, frank, and full dis
cussion of tll measures affecting the
public welfare. 1t means reeOgni-
ton OF theSupreme Sovereignty of
the people, the power of public opin-
ion and Of he fact that the only safe
ty to the Bepublie depends upon the
clear and intelligent comprehension
by the people Of the truth, no mat
ter upon whom the weight of their
disapproVsl may fall
No patriotic man or woman will
fail to rejdce, with us, that jour
nal with tie acquired prestige of the
Tribune, has thus segregated itself
from all partisan bondage and is
hereafter to eight on its own hook"
1t does not natter whether we may
agree or disagree with its postu-
lates, the faei that its opinions are in
no wise coloIed by partisan preju-
dice and affiliations, will give US
faith in its motives and enable us to
weigh its arguments with the great
er nicity and impartiality; and its
power to furnish us with facts viii
render it most powerful aid to US
in determining our own duty as
men and citizens of the United
States. 1 af ar..-

The Chinese opened their kite
flying season by sending up some of
their eoIian or musical kites. These
kites, being strung with catgut,
give out a musical sound,which can
can be heard to a distance of a half
a mile. They have kites resembling
hawks and eagles, cylindrical kites,
kites with and without tails, and in
fact every imaginable kind of kite;
and the amount of comfort they take
in flying them is astonishing to out
side barbarians.' A withered old
man, who would seem to have no
thought but of the amount of filthy
lucre' requisite to keep him alive,
viii sit for hours holding his kite
string and maneuvering his kite, as
happy as a school boy. The Chinese
have passion for flying kites, and
in some cases it becomes q regular
nuisance, as in San Francisco, where
at times so many of the musical kites
are in the air that the noise by them
becomes almostsunendurable. The
Chinaman is content to sit in some
shady nook and watch his kite as il
scars and sings aloft, carrying with
it the written prayer which he gen.
orally sends up to be carried away
by the messengers of the gods.
