Meeting Death.

Bonaparte died in his military garb,
his field marshars uniform and boots,
which he had ordered to be pnt on O
short time before his dissolution
Augustus Caesar chose to die in q
standing position, and was careful in
arranging his person and dress tor
the occasion. Siward, Earl of North
umbelland, when at. the point OF
death, quilted his bed, put on his arm.
or, saying, "That it became not a man
to die like beast" A more remark
able instance is that of Maria Theresa,
of Austria, who, q short time before
she breathed her last, having fallen
into slight slumber, one of the la
dies in attendance remarked that hel
Majesty seemed to be asleep. No. .
said she, Il could sleep if L would in
dulge in repose, but am sensible ot
the near approach of death, and ]
will not allow myself to be surprised
by him in my sleep. l wish to meet
my dissolution awake

center all our affections; we endow
them with all the attributes of angels;
we attribute to them all the virtues
and graCes; we even erect alters to
them upon which are sacrificed all our
hopes and aspirations for future
wealth and fame; but we find at last
that we are dealing in reality with
terrestrial and not with celestial be
ings; those about whom the errors
and frailities of mother earth still
cling, and not those of a higher order
than man. And were the latter the
case-were women angels-wouldn't
some of the lords Of creation stand
very poor chance for matrimonial
honors ? And would such alliances
prove beneficial, especially to those
who think men so corrupt and vasciila-
ting? We find on both Sides that our
idols are made of clay - that
our anticipations-our ideals-are far
more attractive and beautiful than the
realities. ....
We are aware that we have not
made the application of the words
quoted from Schiller, as they were in
tended by the author. We have given
the contrary. Our ideals are dual in
their nature-one of evil-the other
of good. The latter meaning is un
doubtedly the one intended. Some of
the dreams of our youth are exalted,
and if only faithfully carried out
would render US the happiest creatures
in existence. But the examples of
this class are far less in number than
those of the former. Yet they lilu-
inmate the pages of history with a
lustrc which will be enduring. They
are worthy Of imitation, and were the
silent monitors which often speak to
US only obeyed, the history of our
lives would not present so many dark
pages. The ideal and the real would
then more nearly coincide.
Will the time ever come when they
will be identical-when our fOndest
hopes and most ardent desires will
reach full fruition Will the dreams
Of youth ever be fully realized They
may at some time. But ages will have
passed away; empires and kingdoms
will have risen and fallen; ideas and
sentiments will have been materially
changed before such glorious millem
ium will be the lot Of humanity. The
minds and hearts of mankind all over
the world must Re purified and tuned
afresh; the anthems of religion must
form the grand chorus which shall
roll forth from the mighty multitudes
of the globe: and every nation of the
world, laying aside its national pre-
judices, join under a universal, ever
lasting, immutable principle which
shall fill all hearts, and move all men
to more glorious and progressive
! life.

Advice to Girls.

A writer in the Ashtabula Sentinel
addresses the following advice to girls
WHO may be sengaged' OF likely to be:
Don't do anything that you will
look back on from the maturer age of
thirty, and wish you hadn't. Don't
do anything, no matter how long you
have been engaged to a man, that,
when you are married, you will regret.
Your husband will respect you all the
more if you-have always been true to
yourself during his courtship. Time
enough for the kisses and the Glowing
clasps will come after marriage, and
be enjoyed all the more for true purity
of thought and deed. And if the en-
gagement should happen to get brok-
en-, it will save many annoying tho'ts,
if not words, to know that it IS
impossible for some man whom
you care nothing for then, to
boast of familiarities from you. These
young men who are willing to draw
out the little, caressing, familiar acts
that in themselves contain nothing i'm
pure, must possess impure minds, and
imagine license from the innocent,
UAONs hIIGoS1 sCA plSoSLOA0 Va pAN0SNAS ~
will sooner or later, with some one
venture more, you may depend. Your
careless words and actions may infame
his passions, and presently some one
falls, and you can not say but that it is
partly your fault? No doubt it is
very pleasant to be supported in your
evening walk or ride, by the arm of
your dear Augustus, or to-1ean your
head to rest -npoh his convent
ent shoulder, holding his hand, and
to give him parting kiss, but as sure
as you live to be ten years older you
will be sorry that you did it. Then
consider one thing more. In the
strength of your virtue, did you ever
think that some weaker sister may see
or know of the act, and thinking if you
do so, it cannot be improper? The
consequence is that some one takes
advantage of her weakness, and she is
lost. Oh girls! We must blame your
own selves for some of this dreadful
evil! Do be thoughtful and avoid any
action selfrespect calls doubtful

Reunited After Many Kearss

A bit of romance a Vermont paper
says, crops out at SALISBURY, that
State, in the marriage of Nathaniel
Olin, an old man of seventy years, to
woman who, years ago, had been
the bride of his youth, but from whom
he had been divorced. During this
long interval Olin has lived in Ohio,
and had two other wives, by one of
whom be had large family of chill
dren But the first wife seems to have
cherished a tender feeling toward him
through all these long years, and re-
mained single and loyal; and on a
visit of OIin to his old home, last
week, the two met, and the old fame
revived, and the happy panacea of
marriage was the satisfactory denOue-
mont.

More of Him.

That Boston Bulletin man says =
''It is about time for hot weather,
mosquitoes and the hotel clerk All
Summer hotels which have not pro
vided themselves with 'gentlemanly
clerk should do so at once, and set
him up in the Office, behind large dia-
mond pin, as soon as possible. A first
class article of this kind, well launder-
ed, booted and broadclothed, with hair
parted in the middle, has a powerful
effect upon the public. Spicer says,
" wheHtvUr he feels unduly conceited,
he packs a valise and starts for Sum
mer hotel where they support a gen
tlemanly clerk When he arrives,
tired, dusty and hungry, registers his
name, and that superior being, the
clerk with utter oblivion of his exist
ence, continues TO PICK his teeth, twirl
his muStach, or chat with an acquaint-
ance in the ufice, and finally crushes
him with a stony glare, filings key up
on the marble counter, and consigns
him to a cell on the fifteenth story

spontaneous upheaval, as it we're. It
is little queer, however, that the
revolution has manifested itself in but
two counties of the great State of
Ohio. It broke out in mild form In
Allen county and spread to Hamilton.
This county, we may say, is in
chronic state of irruption. It's revo-
Iutions have been very remarkable,
but they don't reach beyond its bor-
ders to any great extent 1t is really
remarkable that while Conventions
have been held in various parts of
the State-half dozen a week on an
average-they have failed to reflect
the great popular desire that we hear
about. If there is ''yearning." 1t
doesn't manifest itself in the news
papers or among the members of the
Conventions. To speak the truth and
surprise His Satanic Majesty, the
Allen county movement is mainly
confined to Cunningham, Brinkerhef
and the Cincinnati Commercial. The
latter institution seems to be largely

CounterfeltIng postoffice orders
is the latest dodge among swindlers.-
The connivance of a 2. o. clerk makes
the thing tolerably easy. The plan is
to use printed moUey orders, fac SIM
lies of those used in the postofice,
and then send the postmaster whom
they expect to swindle the customary
S'advices." The game was tried at
indianapolis with three $50 orders
purporting to come from Oshkosh,
Mich. The orders were paid. The
next attempt was at Cincinnati, with
six $50 orders from Oshkosh, but their
suspicious were aroused and payment
postponed short time, during which
the swindlers escaped. How the
postoffice officials learned of the
existence of these counterfeiters is
little singular. A note to an official
was put in the postoffice at Oshkosh,
June 24, bat, as there was no stamp
on it, it was held for postage until
June 2Sth, when it was forwarded
1t was from a printer who stated that
he had been paid $50, while drunk, to
print a quantity of Oshkosh money
order blanks. Upon this the caution
was given, and so far as heard fromI
the only return received by the swind-
Ter was the $3.50 taken at Indianapolis
1t is a little astonishing, at first
thought, to think that but for the
note sof confession the man might
have swindled Postmasters out of
thousands of dollars. The Postmaster
of Indianapolis may not know official
ly for month or more that the or
ders he has paid on Oshkosh are for
ged. Hence, if there had been no
treason, this man might have had at
least month to visit various offices,
and present orders. But there is com.
fort for the public to know that no
counterfeiter of postal money orders
can ever swindle the public. He is
purely an enemy of the Postmasters,
for on them alone can the loss fall.
