" Yes, ma'am, hurry up and get off as

had to run back near two miles for you.
The old lady seemed wonderfully Gained
and said with the greatest simplicity
" 1 don't want to get off here, 1 want to
go to Americus."
"Don't want to get off here p'' thunder

" Because simply said the old girl, 'my

If you never heard a roar you ought to
have been on that train. Amid the fuss
the bell-cord had the most violent pulls
that it experienced in sometime. The old
lady reached Americus, and was met by
some kin, who took her off the conductors
hands. He, however, pondered over it
well, and heard him tell the conductor of
the train when they met that he never
would treat toothless woman with that
veneration which they deserved again,
especially if she had a reticule and wanted
to know when he passed way station.

Our Homes.

There exists a very beautiful ideal of
what home should be, but somehow men
and women have fallen into the habit of
showing the world their best side of ex-
erting themselves to be amiable and agree
able to people who care the least for them
while to those to whom their interest,
honor and happiness are of vital concern,
they display all of their most unholy and
disagreeable traits.
Some men use their homes as escape
valves for all the ill-humor generated by
friction with the world. 1t will not do to
storm and fume at that, but at home-ah,
there one has a right to do as he has a
mind to 1t is his home, and he is bound
to have his own way there, which he un-
doubtedly could-only there happens to be
one or more others there intent upon the
same thing. And, by the way, this "hav-
ing one's own way'' is q very difficult thing
in world like this, where every life is so
linked with every other life.
There are women, too, set down in the
calendar of this world as patterns of amia-
bility, whose home temper is sad COM
mentary upon the wisdom of the worlds
judgment There are softly modulated
and lady-lilke voices, the charm of the So
cial circle, which in the privacy of their
houses break out in irritating taunts and
angry retorts. These are "very nice wo-
men" who destroy all tho sweetness and
blessedness Of their household by loud and
continual scolding, frettings, and fault
findings. There are brothers who are chiv-
alrous and devoted to other peoples sisters,
but who at home tease and trouble their
own. There are charming young ladies,
fancied by some infatuated young men to
be angels, who are stubborn, self-willed
and indolent at home, where they should
be most agreeable. The true meaning of
home is not a place to go only when you
feel hungry and cross whore you can wear
your worst coat and your worst temper.
The home is undervalued, and its sweet
ness and sanctity highly desecrated {: it
should correspond with the beautiful ideal
one, which we all venerate, where all baser
passions are subdued and controlled by
sweet affection, tenderness and patience
1t is where the wife prefers to stay above
all other places aplace that is never lone
ly to her, for the innumerable blessings
that hover around it; where the shadow of
solitude is lightened by the halo Of quiet
love where the hearth is always bright,
and the rooms tidy and cheerful and where
the wife spends her afternoons" and the
husband his evenings" These are the
shrines to which the absent and weary will
turn with longing for rest and peace.

student should stndy the science or govern

purpose of not being merely tame and lazy

not to be easily surmounted, viz the in

dim and distant prospect Of its ultimate
disappearance. That it has undermined

around every business transaction, public

CANDoR.-Nothing sheds so fine a light
upon the human soul as candor. 1t was
called wilderness by the ancients, for its
purity; and it has always won the esteem
due to the most admirable of the virtues.
However sought for or practiced, all felt the
power and charm of its influence. The man
whose opinions make the deepest mark
upon his fellow-mcn whose influence is
most lasting and efficient, whose friendship
is indistinctively sought where all others
have proved faithless, it is not the man of
brilliant parts, or hattcring tongue, or
splendid genius, or commanding power; but
he whose lucid candor and ingenious truth
transmit the hearts real feelings pure and
without refraction. There are other quail
tiles which are more snowy, and other traits
that have higher place in the worlds code
of honor; but none wear better, or gather
less tarnish by use, or claim deeper hom-
age in that silent reverence which the mind
must pay to truth. The Moralist,

Moral MAGSrruDEs,-We walk amid
grandeurs grandeurs of which outward ma
ture is but the fair symbol and faint hint.
Says Victor Hugo; "There is one thing
grander than the sea, that is, the sky and
one thing grander than sea and sky,--that
is, the interior of the human soul" He
has discovered this solemn majesty of his
own being has entered the true temple
has been summoned into the presence-cham-
Der of the king. Then and thenceforward
for him all things are glorifed, for all things
are irradiate with celestial light. Thence
forward his measurement of magnitudes is
not merely according to the coarse standard
of the senses, or with the petty logical yard
stick, or by earthly utilities; the golden
reed, wherewith the angel measured the
city of God, is put into his hands, that he
may rate all things according to their quail
ity or spiritual function. The world is vul-
gar, empty, stale, unsatisfying, only to
him who has longed for, but has not found,
this divine significance of things and test %
yalues.--G. q. Ames.

"NOthing to do!" in this world of ours,
Where weeds spring up with the fairest flowers
Where smiles have only fitful play;
Where hearts are breaking every day
"Nothing to =" there are minds to teach
The simples form OF Christian speech;
There are hearts to lure with loving VILE,
From the grimmest haunts OF sins defile.
"Nothing to do I" there are lambs to feed,
The precious hope of the Church'S need.
Strength to be borne to the weak and faint
Vigfls to keep with the doubling saint.
"Nothing to do !" there are heights TO attain,
Where Christ is TRANSPORTED yet again;
Where earth Will fade In the vision sweet,
And the soul press on with winged feet.

Address OF Hon. Justin \. MOrriil at
Amherst.

Address OF Hon. Justin =. MOrriIl at
Amherst.
Hon. Justin $. Morrill,, our United
States Senator, delivered the annual address
before the Sacred Union of the Massachu-
sets Agricultural College at Amherst, on
Thursday last, of which we give full alb
stract. The practical good sense, and eX-
cellent sentiments expressed, are worthy of
the man and good counsel to the young
men.
Address.
After Introductory remarks, touching the
advantages of city and country life, and
claiming II was most fortunate for the
young men he was to address that they were
born to take part in the history of man
kind for the next half century Mr.. Morrill,
announced his subject as a few thoughts
upon "Some of the Opportunities and Per-
lis in the Pathway. of the Young Men of
America" 1t would be admitted that the
new world had made some improvements
and had avoided some defects. Notwith-
standing little noise and friction incident
to the movements of new machinery, an
advance is to be found in republican repre-
sentative institutions, in the general educa-
ton of the people, in the humanity and
equality of both civil and criminal law, in
civil and religious liberty, in the conceded
right and high position of women, in the
support of the helpless poor, and finally in
the nearly universal thrift and prosperity
of the people. The opportunity for the ac-
auirement of the branches of common
school education was so nearly universal,
that they were often too soon thrust aside
as of little consequence. But deficiencies
of rudimentaf knowledge make more adj
yanced requirements pretentious, and yet
colleges cannot be expected to give much
time to these fundamental studies. Deli
ciencics will adhere through life. The ART
of speaking and writing the English Ian
guage with absolute purity, should never
BE lost sight of. Blunders and vulgarisms,
barely once tolerated, are prone to intrude
ever afterwarl rs unlimited guests. Fan
beyond the old curriculum of the common
schools has II become necessary now fol

Gathered Gems.

In composing, think much more of your
matter than your manner. To be sure,
spirit. grace and dignity of manner are of
great importance, both to the speaker and
writer; but of infinitely more Importance
is the weight and worth of matter. Writ
DIR. Arnold of Rugby said There are
moments that are worth more than years.
We cannot help it ; there is no proportion
between spaces of time in Importance nor
in value. a stray, unthought of five min
utes may contain the event of a life. And
this all-important moment, this moment
dsproportionate to all other moments, who
can tell when it will be upon us?
There is no doubt of the essential nobili-
ty of that man who pours into life the hon
est vigOr of his toll, over those who COM
pose the feathery foam of fashion that
sweeps along Broadway; who consider the
insignia of honor to consist in wealth and
incidence and who, ignoring the family
history, paint coat-of-arms to cover up the
leather aprons of their grandfathers.

Leigh Hunt says: Beauty too often sac
rifices to fashion. The spirit of fashion is
the beautiful, but the willful; not the
graceful, but the fantastic; not the supe-
rior in the abstract, but the superior in the
worst of all concretes--the vulgar, 1t is
the vulgarity that can afford to shift and
vary itself, opposed to the vulgarity that
longs to do so. but cannot. The high point
of taste and eleganceis to be sought for,n
in the most fashionable circles, but in the
best bred, and such as can dispense with
the eternal necessity of never being the
same thing.
