OCCUPATION.-What a glorious
thing il is for the human heartl
Those who work hard seldom Weld
TO fancIcd or real sorrow. When
grief sits down, folds its hands, and
mournfully feeds upon it, own tears
weaving the dim shadows that 4
little exertion might sweep away
into a funeral pail, the strong spirit
is shOrn of its might, and sorrow
becomes our master. When troubles
flow upon you dark and heavy, toll
not with the waves, and wrcstle
not with the torrent; rather seek
by occupation TO divert the dark
waters that threaten TO Overwhelm
YOU, with thousand channels
which the duties of life always p re-
sent. Before you dream of il, those
waters will fertiliLe the present and
give birth TO fresh flowers, that will
become pure and holy in the sun
shine which penetrates 10 the path
of duty in spite of every obstacle
Grief, after all, is but q selfish feel
ing, and most selfish is the man who
Yields himself to the Indulgence Of
any passion which brings no joy to
his fellOw-mcn.

Loss OF A CoNTINENT.-Plat
sent down to posterity a tradition
of his day that a great continent
which occupied the space now COW
cred by the Atlantic ocean suddenly
sunk down out of sight. lie further
says that it was an island called At
lantis. On it were Kingdoms and
organized governments, wealth,
arts, aud civilization, instantly lost
TO human sight. 1t is now the opin-
ion of the leading geologists-t those
most advanced in science-that the
American continent appeared when
the Atlantic waters rushed into
the enormous cavity or depression
on the earth's surface now filled by
salt water. The rocky Mountains
were then the rough bottom of an
ocean which rose with marine
plants, shells and other products of
an aquatic origin, that are found
abundantly strewed there, and in
fact, all over North and South
America. Remnants of Atlantis,
the submerged continent, are be-
lieved by some scientists TO be re-
cogniZed in the Adirondacks the
White Mountains of Maine, and a
few other outcroppings belonging
TO the other boundaries of that de-
luged and forever lost country
There is no knowing what astound-
ing discoveries may yet he made in
coming ages cOrrObOrative of Pla-

PATIEHCE.-Onc OF the hardest
lessons to learn is to wait. lt is
easy TO be patient while the hand
and brain are busy, but, to be
thrown out of employment, to sec
no prospect In the future but dark
ness above and around, and yet be
serene, is only possible TO the sun
shine soul that can look, by faith,
beyond the mists Of the present TO
eternal sunshine where infinite love
resides. A faith that can overlap
the trials which beset mems path
way, and graspe the promised good,
of the future, is worthy 10 be sought
after, and il is surely attainable, for
the promise is sleadfast, "WhatsO-
ever things We desire, believe that
We receive them and yeN shall haye
them" He who performs TO the
best of his ability every duty, may
rest assured that his life will be
fruitful. The night may seem long
to the waiting one, but the morning
will dawn in the appointed time.

A writer on French manners OBJ
serves: sit is one of the highest
merits OF the system that it tacitly
lays down the principle that all per-
sons meeting in the same house
know each other without the for
mality of an introduction. Any man
may ask girl to dance, or may
speak to anybody at private party.
Another merit OF French manners
is the general absence Offalse shame.
If boy drops his book at church,
he picks il up without blushing. a
French woman takes off her bonnet
and arranges her hair before the
glass in railway waiting-rOom
without thought of the presence
of bystanders.

How Is This2

The Camden Herald, in its issue of the
10th, endeavors to make that town appear
as locality where nothing Intoxicating
can be had. In support of the theory it
tells this story
Last Sunday afternoon four seated team
drove up to one of our hotels, and while the
ladies with the children remained in the car
rlage the two men went into the hotel and in
CURED for something in whisper. The land
lord replied in an audible tone, that if they
were dry they could find some water Just
around the corner. They were not dry. Mad
ness had quenched their thirst, and with NUT
terings on their lips, instead of the luscious
! nectar they drove out of dry Camden on the
road to Rockand, dryer and perhaps wiser
men.
That is good for the virtuous Megunti-
cook region. But on election day the
editor ''saw another sight, which is thus
described
To say the least the election was disgrace
to Camden; and what did it: Rum. Yes, Rum
did it. We venture to say that without rum it
would have passed off quietly and pleasantly,
and only with as much zeal as comes from
honest rivalry. How long shall we such cleo
lions: How long shall we suffer them: How
long shall we endure them?
u,
but contradictory. The town can't be dry
and aHoat with rum all at once. Our
neighbor should get one Of Aden's big
anchors, find holding ground in one or
the other OF these channels, and stick to
either rum OF water
Still another unfortunate encountered
the Penguns OF that locality. These are
aquatic birds, and take kindly to moisture.
Natural history describes them as stand
ing perpendicular-whic is very good
way to stand But the Penguins OF Cam
den are supposed to be society devoted
to hospitality. n B. Milliken, of Wash
ington, d. c., relates in the Herald that
an attempt was made to initiate him into
this feathered tribe. He says
We entered store but a short distance away
and the door was locked behind us. Some
crackers We're laid out and IN attempt was made
to palm upon me Il lass of alcoholic liquor un-
der the name of cider. After some urging
consented to taste of it and finding il TO be
strong drink refused to drink any Of it, 1t was
explained to be a mistake and a glass OF mild
cider was offered in place of ii which drank
on TO pacify their repeated opportunities.
This is a good lesson for the young
and shows what native virtue can do for
man, even for one who halls from Wash
ington. 1t isn't every chap who dwells in
the shadow of the capitol that can refuse
a glass of rum and come down to a drink
of cider so easily.

SMUGGLER's TRoTTIAG The greatest
stallion square trotting that was ever wit
messed in this country occurred at Mystic
Park last week, and a multitude number
ing more than thirty thousand people were
attracted to the spectacle. Col. Russell's
Kansas bred horse Smuggler won in three
straight heats, six horses in all running
This now famous horse, who made the
fastest mile for stallion on record, is
owned in Milton, Mass, but five miles out
Of Boston, and was purchased by his pres
ent owner to replace old Fearnaught who
had sickened and suddenly died He stands
at the head of the list for stallion time,
and Of course his owners fortune is made
as well as the fame of the horse. The
excitement at the Park was almost wild,
when the victorious horse came round on
the home stretch of his third mile, without
Il break, head down, and moving with
tremendous speed like perfect peice OF
machinery. The amount of money that
changed hands on the result was some
thing wonderful
