Tony ESTIMATE OF GLADSTONE. Black
woods Magazine has still a thorough hater
on its staff. The May number has an arti
Gle entitled "The Second Gladstone Adj
ministration," and which need not, in point
of fierceness of malignity, fear acomparison
with the most truculent ofthe worthless whose
slashing articles were in other days reckoned
among the peculiar glories of Maya. The
Government all round gets it very hot and
strong, but the writer's choicest stream of
vitriol is reserved for Mr. Gladstone's devo-
ted head. Take this for example:
Mr.. Gladstone's lofty standard, his gener-
GUS sentiment, and noble impulse, will be
found, we fancy, to amount to this, that he
has a sort of sneaking kindness for right
eous and honorable career, and would glad
ly walk in the path of it if only it could be
made to square with the promptings ofam-
bition and self-interest. Whenever right
and self can be made to harmonize, he
makes much parade of right, and says moth
ing about self; when they will not amalga-
mate, right gets the worst of it. Balaam,
the son of Beor, Was a prophet, and, up to
a certain point, strictly Religious, con-
sclentious man, but she loved the wages of
unrighteousness."

advice to this class of human beings. First,
don't borrow anything when you are able
to buy. Second, don't lnjure what you
borrow, and If you do, be sure to replace
the Injured article with another as good,
and never, nerer be so AHle MS to ask the

IT there are any savage breasts in our
community, (and We should tremble to say
nay,) they had a good chance to be soothed
during the. latter part of last week, and at
the expenditure of a very small amount of
1.-THE filthy" Several were soothed, and
the bronzcd Italian received 10: his
trouble several nickles, more or less. And
then he laid his hand upon his harp of less
than q thousand strings, and all went
merry as q cow-bell in the distance when
the cow is coming home to be MIXED.
One heart, which beat in the breast of a
love-struck young friend of ours, was ev-
identity soothed as eflectually as Mrs,
Winslow's abominable Soothing Syrup
ever soothed the cries of an infant, for he
said to the harpist
IF music be the food of love, play on,
Give me excess Of it,"
And Just here a nickel was thrown, in
rich and careless manner, and the harpist
continued to play, as If to surfeit the mu-
steal appetite of our moon-struck male
biped. We left the young man looking
on, with lips apart, and the harper still
harped, and the little boy fiddled. And as
we left the strains of the harp and fiddle
had a "dying fall"
They came DER our ears like a wall of cats
That steal into our backyard o nights,
Stealing, waiting, stealing.
And moved with concord of sweet sounds
we moved away with al item in oui
pocket which scarcely filled the space
previously occupied by two nickcls.
