Almost EHORafc.

Almost home how sweetly sound
These words within our ears,
As from our labors homeward bound
We leave world of cares.
And mellow huos that softly dye
With light and gloom the west
Now meet our glowing hearts and eyes
IA We repair to rest.
We're almost homc-thc shades of night
Grow deeper in our way
As sinking in n sea of light
The sun withiraws its ray.
Then DER the earth peaceful hush
Luis all our cares TO sleep,
calm as when the I.orl rcbukcd
And stiilcd the angry deep.
We're almost homc-oh, sweet, sweet homo
A light gleams through the Gloom,
Which tells us that, not far away
Wen meet our loved one soon.
Wen at the opcn door receive
a smile and kiss Of love
oh, welcome we the shades of love
AS homcwarl bound we move.
And there around the quir, hearth
In peaceful harmony,
Our happy h'lrts with those We love,
win while he hours away;
And sweet shall be the songs that iiow
From hearts a;tunei TO love,
Almost rs sweet Incthinks they are
AS those they chant above
Aud when our earthly work is done,
And shades of evening come,
The light of life all fading out
Ia deaths dark night OF gloom;
Then weary souls will hail its shade,
No Longer here TO roam
And, Oh, 10 rest with those we love
In our eternal home

A little Danbury boy run away
from school one day, to go chest
nuting. During the expedition he
fell twice out of one tree TO the i'm
mincnt danger of breaking Lis neck,
was licked by one Of the other boys
whose breath he materially lessen
ed by stumbling against his stom-
ach, ran a silver into his knee, and
was violently bitten on the neck by
a new kind of bug. When he got
home his father annOinted him with
the boss end of billiard cue, and
the next day at school the teacher

chestnuts are so wormy this year
that it don't pay to go after them.

The Coming Man.
An exchange says:


While our fine girls are bemoan-
ing the lack of young men and the
scarcity of beaux who are marriage
able and who mean marriage, there
is a class of young men whom they
do not recognize at all, vet who will
furnish to the next generation its
men of enterprise, Of power, of posi-
ton, and Of wealth. 1t is not the
sons of the rich who will, as rule
remain rich. The sons of the Door
will get rich; and these are to-day
drudging in offices, and counting
rooms, and store-houses, and ma
chine-shops, and printing establish
ments; the men, who in twenty-five
years, will control the nation social
ly, politically and financially. Every
man of them means to be married;
make excellent husbands; they are
all at work trying to win success.
They are men who would be easily
improved by recognition, and by
bringing them into good, intellect
society; yet they are as little noticed
as If they were so many dogs. Vir-
tuous young men from the country
come into the city, and live for years
without any society, and are regard
ed by the fashionable young women
with indifference or contempt: but
those young men have hold upon
the future, and when their success is
won, in whatever field of enterprise
it may be, the fashionabIes may be
glad to receive them as belonging
to their own number. We regret to
say, as rule the young men for whom
a position has been won by virtuous
and enterprising fathers, amount to
but little in the world; and we rejoice
to say that companions chosen from
those who have their fortunes to
make and theirpositions to win, are
those to whom a Well-bred woman
can generally y with safety entrust her
happiness and herself.

Blunders of Bashfulness.

If there is any defect more strik-
ing than another, in the American
character, it is bashfulness. Young
America, in particular, is painfull2
effected by it. An incident is men
toned by correspondent, who was
desired by his aunt to go the the
neighbor Shaw's, and see if he had
for sale any straw suitable for beds
Mr.. Shaw, says our informant, was
blessed with a goodly number of
Misses Shaw, and 1 therefore felt a
little timid at encountering them
To make the matter worse, l arrived
just as the family was seated for
dinner. Stopping at the doorway,
hat in hand, l stammered out,-'Mr.
Straw, can you spare enough shaw
to fill a couple of beds?'
"Well," replied the old gentleman
glancing around at his family, and
enjoying my mistake, Il don't know
but what 1 can, how many will you
need?"
Before 1 could recover, those hate
full girls burst into a chorus of
laughter, and broke for home in a
cold sweat.

About a month since a discovery
of great interest was made in a cav
ern between Mentone and Ventig-
milia, on the Italian frontier, not far
from Nice NJ. RiViere, the French
geOlogist, having been sent by his
Government to study the fossil nat
ural history Of Liguria, discovered
the skeleton of prehistoric man in
large cave situated in the noun
tains above Mentone. The skeleton
thus brought to light, a photograph
Of which we have seen, is unique
both as to its authenticity and com
pleteness. 1t has been successfully
freed from the earth which covered
it, and no unlucky stroke Of the
plckax has injured any part of the
1t, only the weight of the superin-
eumbent earth had caused the frac-
ture Of the ribs many years ago.
Flint implements lying around it,
are mingled with the remains Of an
tediIuVian animals. Crowds from
all parts Of the Riviera, and espec-
tally from Nice, have beeen to visit
the curiosity. One Of our cores
pondents has seen it, and declares
the fossil man is most complete.
Shells with holes bored in them, eV-
identity for purposes of personal
adOrnment, have been likewise dis
covered in great abundance, and fnt
implements of the age of stone have
also been found. The body is re-
cUmbent, and one hand is hidden IN
der the skull. The height of the
man must have been six feet, and
the bones indicote great power. As
usual in such matters, the authori-
ties are disputing the right of pos
session. Italians declare that as the
skeleton was dicovered in their ter
ritOry it belongs to them. The
French assert that they discovered
it, and, moreover, NJ. Riviere proves
that hepurchased the cave previous
to the discovery. Meantime the
skeleton remains in its cave, the OBJ
ject OF innUmerable pilgrimages and
the subject of European converse
