Failures IN Business.

A man who never failed i'll business call
not possibly know whether he has any
"grit - in him, or is worth a button. 1t is
the man who fails, then rises, who is real
ly great i'll his way.
Peter Cooper failed in making hats, fail
ed as a cabinet maker, locomotive builder,
and grocer, but as often as he failed, he
'tried and tried again." until he could
stand upon his feet alone, then crowned
his victory by giving a million dollars to
help the poor boys in times TO come.
Horace Greeley tried three or four lines
| of business before he founded the Tribune,
and made it worth a million dollars.
| Patrick Henry failed at everything he
undertook, until he made himself the orna-
ment of his age and nation.
The founder of the New York Herald
kept OH falling and sinking his money for
| ten wears, and then made one of the most
| profitable newspapers on earth.
Stephen A. Douglas made dinner tables
and bedsteads and bureaus many a long
wear before he made himself a 'fgiant z on
the floor Of Congress.
Abraham Lincoln failed to make both
ends meet by chopping wood, failed to earn
his salt in the galley slave life of Mississip-
ri fat boatman; he had oteven wit enough
to run a grocery, and yet he made himself
a GRAND character of the nineteenth CEN

Demolishing a Joke.

z Before states were used people multi

and then went into q computation to show
that the use Of states cannot have sensibly

secondly, because in those countries where

How the New African Sea viii be Made


There are in northern Africa lakes known
by the name Of chotts, which run dry at
certain periods of the year. A chain of
these chotts, the first of which is only sepa-
rated from the Mediterranean by sandy
downs. extends as far as Biskra to the south
of Constantine. The last of the chainbeing
81 metres below the level of the sea, it is
thought feasible, by cutting the sand above
the first cliott to admit the waters of the
Mediterranean to this series of lakes, and
thus form a salt water lake at the southern
extremity of the chain. important enough
| to admitof the cresstionof seaports. From
| these advanced posts, says the author OF
! the repol on this scheme, 1--WE should watch
the nomadic tribes of the south. The
numerous and rich oases of the Souf and
Oued, only noninal1y subject to us, would
fall completely into our power. Our colo
nization would extend TO the south Of Con-
stantii,e as surely as it is established on the
Mediterranean coast. A Abenefcent change
4 of climate is also not the least of the adyan-
| tagcs promised by this bold scheme, the
i first step to tile realization Of which has
4 already been taken. the Bey of Tunis having
been requested by the society to allow q
survey Of the country to be made. -ssosss

Theodore Tilton's Greed.

As other men have creeds, SO have / mine.
keep the holy faith in God in man,
And in the angels ministrant between;
hold to one true church of all true souls,
Whose churchly seal is neither bread nor wine
Nor laying on of hands, nor holy oil,-
Bat only the amounting of Gods grace.
l hate all kings andcaste and rank of birth,
For all the SONS of man are sons of God;
Nor limps beggar but is nobly born,
Nor wears slave yoke nor Gar a crown,
That makes him more or less than just man.
love my country and her righteous cause,
So dare not keep silent of her sin;
And after freedom may her bells ring Peace!
love one woman with holy fire,
Whom revere as priestess of my house.
I stand with wondering awe before my babes
Till they rebuke me to a nober life.
keep faithful friendship with friend,
Whom Loyalty serve before myself;
| lock my lips too close to speak lie.
I wash my hands too white to touch bribe;
l owe no man debt cannot pay,
Save only of the love men ought to owe.
Withal, each day before the blessed Heaven
l open wide the chambers of my soul
And pray the Holy Ghost to enter ir.
Thus reads the fair confession of my faith,
So crossed with contradictions of my life,
That now may God forgive the written lie!
Yet still by help of Him who helpeth men,
face two worlds, and lear not life or death.
Father lead me by Thy hand! Amen.

SUNSET AFTER A. SHOWER.

Over the hill-tops, fold upon fold,
Like blood-stained banners within the sky,
Braided with crimson and fringed with gold,
In a sea of amber the spent clouds lie,
Down in the valley the slumb'rous trees
Droop, heavily jeweled with fallen rain;
And a spicy-scented, tremulous breeze
In ripples crosses the bending grain.
The winding river, like silver, CLEANS
Through dreamy vistas that melt and fade,
And the sunlight falling in s'anting beams.
Strike deep in the heart of the forest shade.
On distant upland the lonely pine
is tangled with purple and bound with fire;
The stones in the churchyard glance and shine,
And the weather vane is a gilded wire.
The tapeiing cedar like a spear
Shoots out Of the cliff, where stands revealed
The rocky ledge; and the herd appear
Like spots of color within the field.
And the braided banners of clouds are seen
To fiercer burn, as with sudden shame;
While the vale below and the hills between
Are drowned in yellow mist of fame.
And farmers boy. all agare with light,
Looks over the cliff where the cedars grow
And shades with his hand his dazzled sight,
And calls to his comrade down below?
Then the brazen woodlands echo and ring
And the earth and sky seem TO shout with him
A pearly arch in the hawks feet wing:
And the sweltering landscape seems to swim.
On yonder hill side a cottage shines
The window westward flashes and glows,
It nestles amid it's sheltefing vines
Of glistening ivy, like rose.
And there in the porch two lovers WOO
Her slender figure his arms enfoid;
While the doves in the dove-cot bill and COO,
And ruffie their necks of green and gold.

The Black Hills Expedition.
From the chicann Intrr- llcean.

From the Chicago Inter Ocean.
FoRT A. LINCOLN, D. T., July 24.-Two
Indian scouts arrived here last night from
the Black Hills expedition, bearing private
and official correspondence and letters from
the reporters Of the Inter Ocean and New
York Tribune. who accompany the expedi-
ton. The scouts left General Clusters
command on the afternoon of July 10Th, at
longitude 1910 10i latitude 47o A., Prospect
Valley. near the headwater of the Little
Missouri, s47 miles from this post and about
five days march from their destination
The expedition has been making rapid pro-
gress, and its march has been free from diff
fieulties and Interruptions of any character.
The weather has been intensely hot, the
thermometer ranging from 800 to 1o01 con-
stantly, without rain or high wind, but the
whole command is reported in excellent
health and discipline. The morning the
scouts left no one responded to the sick
call. So far the expedition has suffered no
losses of either life or property, and no acei-
dent of any serious nature. Occasionally
the scouts have reported seeing small bands
of Sioux lurking along the trail, but no
hostile indications many quarter. General
Custer expects to take his observations and
explorations in the Black Hills and sur
rounding country and return by the 1st of
August.

John Mitchell, the Irish patriot, has ar
rived at Cork and the friends of Irish ma
tionality are preparing to give him a ire
mendous ovation. 1t is said that Mr.. Mar
tin, Member for Meath, is to accept the
"Chiltern Hundreds, - in order to give the
returned "rebel" seat in Parliament.
John Mitchell, though a Protestant, is in
tensely Irish, and as nobody has ever yet
challenged or doubted his sincerity, he has
naturally a large following among the more
pronounced Of his compatriots. 1t would
be a scene characteristic of this century of
progress if returned "rebe1," convicted
Of high treason, and, in the eye of the law,
yet wearing chains in a penal settlement,
should rise in his seat in the Imperial Par
lament and denounce the government to
which he theorobieolly owes years of nenaI
servitude! How all Britannia's tradition
would be stultified! @

THE MAGIC SPITTeoN.-The Virginia
Enterprise tells the following: A night or
two since, at an uptown saloon, hostilities
suddenly opened between two men who
were standing at the bs,r. wien one OF them
caught up 4 large spittoon and let his
antagonist have it square on top Of tho
head. The man hit was not knocked down,
whereat he seemed d little astonished. The
man who struck the blow was also astonish-
ed. He dropped his weapon, and the pair
stood looking inquiringlv at one another.
All traces Of anger had disappeared from
their countenances-they merely looked
beWiIdered. The fellow who had received
the blow put his hand tp his head and pros
pected, as it appeared to him that he had
felt it crush in like the shell Of a rotten
pumpkin, while on the other liialds the one
who did the striking was sire he had felt
the spittooll sink half way through his
enemy's head. At last the latter said ]:

POE T TRY,
Ripe Wheat.

We bent to-day oer coffined form,
And our tears fell softly down:
We looked our last on the aged face,
With a look of peace, its patient grace,
And hair like sill yer crown.
We touched our own to the clay-cold hands,
Fiom lifes long labor at rest
And among the blossoms white and sweet
We noted a bunch of go Iden wheat
Claspcd close to the silent breast.
The blossoms whispered of fadeless bloom,
OF the land where falls no tears; a.-
The ripe wheat told of toll and care
The patient waiting the trusting prayer,
And garnered good of the years.
We know not what works her hands had found,
What rugged places her feet;
What cross was hers; what backness of night;
We saw but the peace, the blossoms,
A'arl ffe hiliacil nf risanued wheat

"a pre-revolution Virginian. When ne

The coming girl will be of some use in

bend, dance the German, ignore all possi-
bilities of knowing how to work, will not
endeavor to break the hearts of unsophisti-
Gated young men, will spell correctly, un-
derstand English before she affects French,
will preside with equal grace at the piano
and the washboard, will spin more yarn for
the house than the street, will not despise
her plainly y-clad mother, her poor relations,
or the hand of an honest worker, will wear
bonnet, speak good plain English, will
darn her own stockings, will know how to
make doughnuts. The coming girl will
walk five miles a day, if need be, to keep
her cheeks in glow; will mind her health.
her physical development, and her mother;
will adopt q costume both sensible and con-
duciye to comfort and health; will not con-
found hypocrisy with politeness; will not
practice lying to please instead of frankness;
will have the courage to cut an unwelceme
acquaintance; will not think that refine-
ment is French duplicity. that assumed
hospitality where hate dwells in the heart
is better than outspoken condemnation;
will not confound grace of movement with
silly affection; win not regard the end of
her being to have beau.

Of this effort: 4 Here is ashadow in marble,

an apparition, and showing the strain of
the endeavor AS one looks loager the
piteousness OF the whole expression grows
especially, again, in the wonderful eyes;
the eountenance, grim and tperburbed as

anger, and even the dead frown seems
tempered by the love and longing which

Paris has just sent out new life-saving
invention, which, it is said, will render
drowning inexcusable. Itconsists of double
shirt-like garment that reaches from the
knees to the throat, and is fastened in front
by double row of buttons. Inside of this
a rubber tube is coiled sufficient number
of times to contain air enough, when in
dated, to support the body when in the
water The tube terminates at the neck
with a mouth-pieee which is closed by q
metallic button. 1t is expected that when
person goes near the water he will wear
this garment; and then, if by ill-luck he
stumbles in, all he will have to do will be
to blow up his jacket and calmly float
around until help comes.
