Bowen & McNamcc was started rs a

Bowen was young enough to try

Stewart took MoNamcc into his

there until his death, short time

THE CITY ON THE HILL,

Know quiet city,
a silent peaceful city,
y beautiful, strange city,
Upon sunny hill;
Where dasies fair are growing:
Where the summer winds are blowing
Along the earth's green BOSOM,
-Adown TIE Streets 50 still.
The streets are long and narrow;
Ihe brown thrush and the sparrow
Their little nests have builtIcd,
Amid the fower-accked grass:
The robbins carol in il;
You hear the song of linct,
Whenever this strange city
Your footsteps chance TO pass
The houses in this city
This still and peaceful city,
Where never human pity
The 'lwellers need not ask
Each roof the grasses cover.
The green blades each u lover
Ofhaunis, where thrush and plover
M.t,iA tnr sunlight b.lsk.
There are no sounds Of sorrow,
No !ongings for tomorrow;
Nor pain 10 bear and borrow,
Within its silent streets;
But AL is peaceful over
The green grass and the clover.
A. 'Iiy- 60 .!r,":ing onward,
Above it> calm retreats.

They tell good joke on Il Young
man WHO stepped into a restaurant
for breakfast. When he had finished
he started To- 20 out, when lie saw
for the first time that il was snow ing.
He lrcmblcd. looked up AT tie SKY,
glanced in at the large mirror over
the cashiers desk, and turnco pale.
Reckoning to one ofthe prolrietors he
said: "Charlcy. is ii showing out oi
doors?" YES, indeed, il i.," was
the reply. "Thank, heaven" sail the
moor fellow. Il wasn't sure ahou,

prietor BY the hand ant: lowering his
voice, he said, "Old boy, thought l

LABOR AN0 CAPITAL.

they were two essentially different
things. They arc. in fact, csscu;inli,
Que. lfa man builds q factory, puts

tab!iS!iment is capital. Hit pays the
whole expense Of running, includin.
materials, wear and tear, and wages.
and then something over and above,
that surplus is called earnings. /; is
regarded as fresh capital.

PEOPLE AND POLITICIANS.

About the hcalthlest sign discerni-
bic upon the face of the bodv-politic
at this moment is the avidity with
which the masscs of the people en-
brace the nomination of Mr.. Greeley.
1t proves, more than all else, that the
source Of power. under our institu-
,!ons, the people themselves. are raj
lyirg to the support OF the Cimcin-
uati ticket with unaniinity unprc-
cedcnted in cur history. The uomi-
nation of Horace Greeley. Il man free
from the tricks and trades ofpoiiii-
clans. has struck popular chord
which reaches the hearts OF the peg
pie, and appeals to their good scu>r
as no nomination has tor mruv
years. And what still adds tl"i 10
the feeling enkindicd by 'he uomiina-
tion is the amtagoi,i-lu of Gree! = :
name to the professional puliti.iau-.

Happiness.

An lillian bishop, who had strug-
glcd through many difficulties with
out repining, & been much opposed
without manifesting impatience, be-
ing asked by friend to communi-
cate the secret of his being always
so happy, replied;
alt consistsrfn single thing, and
that is, making right use of my
eyes"
His friend, in surprise, begged
him TO explain his meaning.
"Most willingly" replied the bish-
op. ''Iu whatsoever state am
first look up to heaven, and remem-
Der that my great business is 20 get
there. then look down upon earth,
and call TO mind how small a space
shall soon fiji in il. / then look
abroad in the world, and see what
multitudes are, in all respects, less
happy than myself. And thus
learn where true happiness is
placed, where my cares must end,
and how little reason l ever had
to muTmur, or to be otherwise than
thankful. Aud to live in this spirit
is to be always happy.

SOONER on LATEn.

sooner or later the storms shall beat
Over my slumbers from head to feet;
Sooner or later the winds shall rave
In the long grass above my grave.
shall not heed them where 1 lie,
Nothing their sound shall signify;
Nothing the headstone fret Of rain;
Nothing to me the dark days pain.
Sooner or later the sun shall shine
With tender warmth on that mound Of
mine;
Sooner or later in summer air,
Clover and violets blossom there.
I shall not feel in that deeP-laid Fest
The sheetiug light fall over my breast,
Nor even note in those hidden hours
The wind-blown breath Of the tossing
flowers.
Sooner or later the stainless SHOWS
Shall add their hush to my mute repose,
Sooner or later shall slant and shin
And heap my bed with their dazzling drift.
Chill through that frozen pail shall seem,
It's touch no colder can make the dream
That wrecks not the sweet and sacred dread,
Shrou ling the city Of the dead.
Sooner or later the bee shall ceme
And I'LL the noon with its golden hum;
Sooner or later on half poised wing
The bluebirps warble about me ring.
Ring and chirrup and whistle with gleo,
Nothing his music means to me;
None Of these beautiful things shall know
How soundly their lover sleeps below.
Sooner or later far out in the night
The stars shall over me wing their iight;
Sooner or later my darkling dews
Catch the white sparks in their silert ooze.
Never ray shall part the gloom
That wraps me round in the kindly tomb;
Peace shall beperfect for my lip and brew
Sooner or later-Oh, why not now?

Look Unto Jesus.

II Is because you are degraded;

The NIeanesr Man.

L saw a man to-day who speaks
four languages-New York, Boston,
HObOken and English. He is very
than Bill Gilbert's
powder. 1t is said that Bill Gflbert's
powder had grains as big as buckle
berry, and that a man might wade
through the bad place six weeks
with a bag full of il on his back
with perfect safety. This man who
is meaner than Bill Gilbert's pow
der, has been promising for two
years to take his family this summer
to a watering place, and one day
last week, after they had been two
weeks packing their trunks, he
hitched up his team and drove them
down to the pump.

Perhaps nay--PerhaP. may no,

The life of DIR. Rallies, of Liver
pool has the following:
A young lady, the daughter of the
house, was addressed by man who,
though agreeable to her was dislik-
cd by her father. o. course, he
would not consent to their union,
and they determined 70 elope. The
night was fixed, the hour came, and
in a few moments she was in his
arms. They mounted a double
horse and were soon some distance
from the house. After q while the
Young lady broke the silence by say
ing: ''Well, you see what proof L
have given you of my affections; L
hope you may make me a good hus-
band. He was q surly fellow and
gruffIy answered. Perhaps 1 may,
and perhaps l may not" She made
no reply, but after some minutes
she suddenly exclaimed. "Oh,
what shall we do? L have left my
money in my room." Then he said,
''We must go back and fetch it,
They soon returned TO the house,
the ladder was again raised, the Ia
dy mounted, while the ill-natured
lover waited below, but she delay
ed, so he softly called, care you
coming?" She replied, 'tPcrhaps l
may, and perhaps l may not" then
shutting the window down, left
him to return on the double horse
alone.
