Tomorrow.

There's sunshine on life's path to-day,
The flowers bloom fresh and fair;
1t is youths balmy month of May,
There's fragrance in the air.
Around his way no cloud is cast
BY memory or sorrow;
He looks with rapture on the past,
And hopeful on tomorrow.
But time strides on, and from his wing
The autumn shadows fall;
Alas the buds of early spring
Are wither'd, one and all.
And summer mem'rieS, Only seem
distant light TO borrow;
While still the heart will vainly dream,
Joy may return to sorrow
Then winter, with ruthless hand,
Throws gloom across the scene;
And snow-storms fall upon the land,
Where sunshine late hath been.
Age shudderS by the hearth a while;
And, bow'd by care and sorrow,
Looks TO that future with smile,
Where there is no tomorrow!

Just so-Monsieur Tonson come again
An instance of destiny" Not long
ago an English mechanic, having vainly
used all his ingenuity in endeavoring to
get him a wife, advertised for one in
fl of despair. He was profoundly in
earnest and so was the dame who re
sponded. They met; but whether it was
the color of her hair, or the shape of her
nose, or her disposition, is not said-but
he didn't fall captive to her charms
He advertised again, varying the form Of
his announcement, and when he had an
answer went to see his correspondent
with heart beating high with hope.
Alasl He found the equally persevering
spinster again. A third time he wooed
Fate with yet differently worded be-
guilement He reached the appoint
ed place of meeting-'twas Shel Crushed
to the earth, and convinced, like Mr.,
Swiveller, that destiny was full of stag
gerers, he smiled, he conversed, and
meellly at last welded the determined
woman.

 COMMENTS OF THE NEW YORK PRESS.
 New York, Wednesday, Oct. I3.
 The Herald says the defeat of the iadationists in Ohio is one Ifrom which they will never recover and it is foltu. nate deliverance from a great political danger.
 The World says the rag baby is dead and nothing remains for the democrats to dc but put it promptly under the ground. It says the election wos defeated by the attempt to rally the democrats under a republican standard.
 The Tribune says the democrats ot Ohio have dug their own pit and have shown remarkable ability to overturn and destroy, and urges anew departure.
 The Times regrads the victory in Ohio as the trial of simple honesty over a base attempt to break public faith and sully national honor, and says the republican party alone can now be depended on tc steer the nation clear of financial ruin.

 For some reason our little place with all it's hustle and commotion, has never been heard from through the columns of your paper. Now l think it is time something was said about it, that our neighbors in other towns should know what thriving people we are.

Ahh II AMlL1 AEhId 4RUE STORY.- A toothless couple in one of our rural districts concluded, after much jaw, that they would gum it no longer-that, in fact, the family must be provided with new set of teeth. These worthy people were not given to ostentatious display; they believ- ed in having something for g rainy day j; they also firmly believed the doctrine that the twain were one flesh, and, slnce one pair of spectacles, brass bound, had long suficed for their united eyes, why should not one set of teeth work equally we'll Accordingly those aged mouths repaired to neighboring dentist, and lo! the triumph of mind over matter-a set of teeth that will bite off plug of tobacco for "father," |" or nibble Sunlay caraway and chatter harmless gossip for "motner," with equal precision Life has now fresh zest, and found new relish. It is lovely and beauti- full to sec them at the little round table ready for dinner.
 First, the old lady picks up the teeth they are always lying about handy-slips them in and makes good use of her privi- leges while father is laying up generous stock of provisions on his plate. Presently he leans back in his chair, puts down his knife and fork, and says, cheerfully, "Come, mother, give me the teeth" Then the old lady, with true conjugal alacrity, touching to behold, catches them out, hands them across the table 10 the old gentleman, dextrously clasps them in his own mouth, and the family eating goes complacently on. till perhaps "mother' comes to a hard spot and demands the molars. So back and forth like weaver's shuttle, busily ply the teeth, till the square meal is ended-Bosto1 Globe.
