A Thankful Editor.

We have no idea that the editor who
wrote the following knew that he was
getting off 'good thing"
swe owe our thanks to-Judge Kelley
for the latest Patent Office Reports. We
already have sixteen hundred of these
interesting volumes in our little library
but they have been read and re-read SO
many times that we know every page
of them by heart. This new volume
came opportunely and graceful on
Christmas morning, and that night we
gathered our little family around the
fire and read it through, to them. The
very affecting tale entitled 'Improve-
ments in Monkey Wrenches, Seemed to
touch every heart, and when we came to
the climax of the little story about "Re-
versible Pie-boards," there was not
dry eye between the front door and the
stable. During the reading of the pite-
Gus narrative entitled Scum Washers
for Carriage Axle" the whole family
gave expression to boisterous emotion,
and the hired girl was so excited, that
she lost her presence of mind, and went
10 her mothers inadvertently with six
pounds sugar, and butter kettle full
of flour, and came home at midnight in
toxicated. We can never sufficiently
thank Judge Kelley for the innocent en-
joyment that furnished us. The menu
ory of that happy evening will linger in
our minds very much longer than that
hired girl fingers when she lights on a
lots of substance which she thinks will
suit the constitution of her aged par
ants

LINCOLN AND SEWARD.
More Light on the Question
Raised in the Adams Ora
ton. f.. ...arrnf -

Somebody in the State Department at
Washington has brought to light the
original draft of Mr.. Stewards letter to
the British Ministry, written in May,
1861, directly after the recognition of
the belligerent rights of the Confeder-
ate States by England, with Mr.. Lin
coins emendations, sort of revising
and proof reading operation which
changed the character Of the documents
in a great many respects. This draft
has been photographed and copies of it
are in circulation. They show, and
were probably printed for the purpose
Of showing, that Mr.. Stewards diploma
cy, which has recently been so highly
lauded and on which has been based a
rather inordinate estimate of service as
compared with President Lincoln, was
not in all cases, at least, his own. This
original draft, it appears, was very
highly seasoned and strongly worded
production, and in Mr.. Lincoln's hand
writing appear numerous suggestions In
the nature of commands, such as "omit''
and "omit this,' etc, which render it a
good deal Of the historical curiosity and
of value as throwing light on the dis
cussion which has lately been brought
on by Mr.. Adams eulogy of Seward. 1T

Anecdote of Lord Pam.

The late Lord Palmsrston, like most
men who have become famous in liter
ature or politics, was CAPITAL racon'ear,S
and enjoyed keenly the telling of good
anecdote. Lord Shaftesbury, ,one of the
most philanthropic men of England,
married Lady Palmerston's eldest
daughter of Earl Cowper, her first hus-
band. Lord Palmerston was never
weary of telling stories al out his SOM
in-law, whose religious zeal he did not
much believe in or care for; and Lsrd
Shaftesbury always took them in good
part. Many years ago Lord P. called
across the table to Lsrd John Russell,
who sat reading a newspaper at the
ssGarrick:"
"Russell, have you read Tony's" (the
nickname by which he always designa-
ted the Earl of Shaftesbury whose name
is Anthony Ashley Cowper) )aspeech last
night before the parsons and paupers at
Exeter Hall?''
81 have not, my lord" replied Lord
John, whose priggishness never permits
him to treat or address any persen famil-
iarly. r 14
@well, read it. It's devilish good, and
the examination of children at the close

elbow so?''
seTony was asking the children var
iety of questions Of Scriptural nature,
to which be had received very satisfac-
tory answers. Just as he was conelud-
ing, he addressed a girl somewhat older
than the rese and among other things
inquired, sWho made your vile body q
Please, my lord,' responded the un-
sophisticated girl Betsy Jones made my

The Past.

The past is beyond recall. As well
might you try to restore the dried up
mummy to life and beauty as to live
over the past, and correct the mistakes
committed. 1t is gone, buried beyond
resurrection, and is as worthless as a
dream, except as an example for the
present and future. To go back into the
future with your face towards the past,
is to stumble through life, and repeat
the errors that experience should have
taught you to avoid. Let the past go,
for to waste time idly, wishing its re-
turn, is to blind yourself to the realities
of the present, and fits You for nothing
but helpless wanderer in the future.
Look aheadl If you have seen trouble,
turn your back upon it and press for
ward, determined to deserve success
Some people never recover from mis-
fortune. Once dewn, they remain down
forever. They make no effort to get up.
They prefer to keep down, and appear
to enjoy secret satisfaction in telling
others what they have been, and what
they might have been, had good fortune
continued to smile upon them. Others
shake off trouble as duck would the
water. 1t makes no other impression
on them than to make them a trile wis
er. You can't knock them down. Knock
them off their feet and they are up in q
twinkle, and go ahead as brayely as if
nothing had happened. All they ask is
health and strength. Their courage is
equal to every emergency. Like the
blooded racer, though dIstanced at the
start they never gave up the race until
the home stand is reached. In word,
they do their best under all circumstan-
ces, and in doing this. generally do well
enough. 1t is bad enough for an old man
who has put forth strength and failed
to become discouraged, and drift into the
rushing current of fate with no effort to
steam it, but for young man, or one in
his prime, who has brain and muscle in
perfect order, to give up and drift with
a tide that he could easily overcome is
without any excuse. What if you have
lost money or failed in business. Can
these trifling troubles excuse idleness
when extra exertion is required? Yes
terday has fled from your reach, ,to-day is
yours,to morrow may be full of sunshine
to your darkened hopes. Let the past go
rear tombstone over it if you please,
but cease to dwell over its grave. The
world is before you,ripened fields await
your labor,you may retrieve all and win
even more than you had. The little vex-
ations of life are but the axestrokes that
chip and deface the young oak, but fail
to retard its growth. Nature heals the
wound, and the young tree grows to its
full proportion. So the vital element of
mans life, if hope remains uncrushed,
will heal the wounds of the past, and
ont of the failure ofyesterday weave the
glorious triumph of to-day or to NOR
row.

How John Made it Up.

He had failed somewhere-in study
or department, I cannot remember
which-and his teacher told him he
must stay after school. When the other
scholars were dismissed John seized
moment when the teachers back was
turned, and slid out of the door. She
called after him to come back, but he
pretended not to hear, and ran away.
1t was cute trick, he thought, and he
thought, and he Dragged over it little
to the other boys; but he did not go to
school the next day, nor the next. He
did not feel like it, he said.
At last he made his appearance again,
but instead of the punishment he ex-
pected, his teacher, who was giving out
the subjects for essays that day, only
told him to "write composition about
obedience" --r-r.. g-s..
John took her meaning at once, and
sat scratching his head and puzzling
ever his composition about half day
Finally he handed in the following,
which is an actual copy of Johns COM
position: ......,, O.
aWhen won tells won to do thing,
and he does it, it is called obeying, and
when won tells won to do thing and
he don't do it, it is called disobeying
And when a man or woman tells boy
OR girl to do thing and he don't doit
it is called disobeying, and when a
teacher tells boy to do thing and he
does it it is called obeying, and when a
teacher tells boy to do thing and he
don't do it it is called disobeying. The
boys name was John, and he did moi
obey his teacher, and when she called
him back he did hear her, and he viii
never do it again."
The teacher was satisfied. I'D.

at Kiss Your Hand. "

Is pretty phrase, although it might
sound rather unconventional in Ameri-
can society, but kissing the hand in
reality, as an act of politeness, is some
thing never seen except on the stage, or
described in the pages of novel. Both
the expression and the act, however,
are still customary among the Austri-
ans. Mr.. Fulton, in one of his recent
letters from Vienna, says:
"Kissing the hand is national GUS
tom in Austria. A gentleman, on meet
ing lady with whom he is acquainted,
especially if she be young and hand
some, kisses her hand. On parting with
her again he kisses her hand. At the
Reidhof last evening young man who
was paying his addresses to young la
dy, on taking his seat at the supper ta-
bic, around which the family were seat
ed, kissed the mothers hand, and also
the hand of his affianced. 1t is very
common to see gentleman kiss lady's
hand on the street, on meeting or part
ing with her. If you give a beggar-
woman in the street a few coppers, she
either Kisses your hand or says, 81 kiss
your hand" We have had our hands
kissed twenty times since we have been
in Austria by chambermaids, beggars,
and OH one occasion by an old man.
The word "kiss your hand" appears to
be the same as in German and English
or at least it tsounds the same. The Ger
mans kiss the hands of married women
as well as the single, and 1t is taken as
an ordinary salutation and token Of
respect. American ladies are startled
when they first experience the applica-
tiOn of the custom, but soon submit to
it with good grace. The children, al.
so, when presented to a stranger, TAXI
his hand and kiss it, showing that it il
tn e custom to which they are educated
from their cradles.
