LITTLE BY LITTLE.

If you are gaining little by little
every day, be content. Are your
expenses less than your income,
so that, though it be little by lit
tlr, you are yet constantly accum-
ulating and growing richer and
richer every day: BE content; SO
far as concerns money, you are do
ing very well.
Are you gaining knowledge every
day? Though it be little by little
the aggregate of the accummula-
ton, where no day is permitted to
pass without adding something to
the stock, will be surprising to
yourself. Solomon did not become
the wisest man in the world in a
single day, always reading,
always studying n little
between the time of rising up in
the morning and lying down at
night; this is the sure way to accu
mulate full storehouse of knowl-
edge.
Finally, are you daily improv-
ing in character ? Be not discour-
aged because it is little by little.
The best of men fall far short of
what they themselves would wish
to be. 1t is something it is much
if you keep your good resolutions
better to-day than you did yester-
day, better this week than you did
last, better this year than you did
last year. Strive to be perfect, but
do not become disheartened so
long as you are approaching near
or and nearer to the high standard
at which you aim.
Little>by lit lie, fortunes are ac-
cumulated little by little, knewl-
edge is gained little, by little
character and reputation is achiev-
ed.

feres with the hours Of play which health
demands boys should have, viz: Be-
tween O'Clock in the a. IN. and in the
p. m, with necessary, intermission for
meals.
Fourth-And be ii enacted that straps
and taws nor cowhides nor yet slippers,
will have effect in this rebellion. If they
try that game, it will be good bye John,
for errands, and we shall ever pray
That's the kind of hair pins that we
are.

THEwoRLD Is FULLUF BEAU

There lives a voice within me. guest
angel OF my heart, III
And its sweet lispings win me, till the
tears attending start
Up eyermore ia springeth, like some
magic melody. se>.a RI. !, .ss
And evernnore itsiugeth this sweet song
of songs to me: s''
The world Is full Of beauty, as other
worlds above,
And if we did our duty it might be full
of love.
Nights starry tenderness flower with
glory evermore,
Morn building, bright, meloiious hours
come sweetly as ofyore;
But there may be million hearts accurst
where no sweet sunburst shine.
And there be million hearts athirst for
Loves immortal wine.
The world is full Of beauty, as other
worlds above,
And If we did our duty il might be full
of love.
Iffaith and hope and kindness passed
as coin, 'twixt heart and heart,
How, through the eyes tear blindness,
should the sudden soul upstart
The dreary, dim and desolate should
wear a sunny bloom,
And Love should spring from buried
Hate, like flowers from Winters tomb.
This world il full of beauty, as other
worlds above.
And if we did our duty it might he full
of love.
Were truth our uttered language, angels
might talk with men,
And, God, ilumined, earth shorld see
the Golden Age again;
The burdened heart should soar in mirth
like morn's young prophet-lark
And Misery's last tear wept on earth,
quench Hell's last cunning spark.
This world is full of beauty, as other
worlds above,
And II we did our duty, 1t might be full
Of love.
Lol plenty ripens round us, yet wakes
the cry for bread,
The MILLIONS are still toiling, crushed,
and clad in rags unfsd
While sunny hills and valleys, richly
blush with fruit and grain,
But the panpers in the palace rob their
toiling fellow men.
This world is full of beauty, as other
worlds above,
And if we did our duty, it might efull
of love
Dear God what hosts are trampled
mid this killing crush Of gold
What noble hearts are Slapped Of love!
what spirits lose life's hold
Yet a merry world it would be, opulent
for all and aye,
With its lands that ask for labor, and
its wealth that wastes away.
This world is full Of beauty, as other
worlds above,
And If we did our duty, it might be full
OIL love.
The leaf tongues of the forest, and the
flower lips Of the sod,
The happy birds that hymn their rap
lures in the ear OF God.
The Summer wind that bringeth music
over land and sea,
Have'each voice that singeth this sweet
songs to me-
This world is full of beauty, as other
worlds above,
And If we did our duty, it might be full
oflove.

WASTED POWER.

In every family there is power;
to let in the development and use
of this power lies the true secret of
success. Parents are apt to think
that their cares will cease when
the little ones grow up, but every
year enlerges the responsibility
they have assumed. The physi-
cal needs of the children demands
time and money, but when their
mental powers awake and expand
the real care of parents commenc-
es. Andjust at this point many
parents shrink from their plain
duty, and place their highest priv
ileges in the hands of strangers.
Is it right to believe that a moth
er 8 whole duty lies in the adorn-
ment of her daughters person, or
that a father has performed his du-
when he has paid his sons bills
and notices his physical growth :?
1t is so easy to select a school for
the molding o its character to
chance! But it is hard, unceas-
ing care to watch the opening
mind, read the thoughts, and stu
dy the best interest of the little
form that holds an immortal soul.

The Knoxville Tenn Press and
Herald of July % says: A gentle
man just from Jacksboro informs
us that grasshoppers in great abun
dauce are in the valley a little
north of Jacksboro. In company
with friend, he walked out al
most quarter of a mile to "see
the sight," and found that the
half had not been told him. The
Lestiferous insects, were on the

The great legal acrobat OF the day is Attorney
General Williams In his remarkable act Of jump

paralleled. He can leap further and vault higher
and come down at q greater distance from his
point Of departure than any other living man. Let
his object be as far removed possible-let it be
separated from him by seemingly insuperable

surmOunt either, or both, and jump to an Infinitely
distant conclusion with the ease with which an
ordinary tumbler turns somerset from
spring board, or q One-horse circus rider smasnes
through paper balloon.
One OF the most remarkable OF Williams feats
was his celebrated performance in the Louisiana
case, when he succeeded in clearing at single
bound mass OF facts which would have appalled,
any other living being. 1t Is supposed that
he accomplished this feat by simply shutting
his eyes and refusing to look at anything be-
fore him, and then making that amazing jump
which landed him at his extraordinary conclusion,
without giving the slightest thought, or even q
passing glance. to the obstacles IN his way In the
matter or the Virginius 1t seems that he has sue
ceeded IN another remarkable effort OF similar
Kind. His object was to be convinced on the part
OF the United States that the Virginlus was not

very snort and easy process OF admitting all the
testimony on one side and not asking for any tes-
tmOny on the other And this ID the man whom
the PRESIDENT has nominated to be the successor
OF Chase, and whose name he refuses to withdraw,
even in lace OF the indignant protests OF an out
