PEN POINTS.

Riches are apt to besray a man
into arrogance.
That which turns out we'll is bet
ter than any law,
Every man has in himself con-
tnent OF undiscovered character
Happy is he who acts the Columbus
to his own soul.
Adroit observers will find that
some who affect to dislike hattery
may yet be fattered indirectly, by
a weIl-seasoned abuse of their riv-
ais. - Cotton.
This world is full of fools, and he
who would not wish to see one must
not only shut himself up alone, but
must break his looking glass. - Boz
leau.
If thou wouIdst find much favor
and peace with God and man, be
very low in thine own eyes. For
give thyself little, and others much.
i leighton.
When all is summed up, a man
never speaks of himself without loss
his accusations of himself are always
believed, his praises never Mon
taigne.
Men rather trust to their eyes
than their ears the effect of pre-
cepts is, therefore, slow and tedious,
whilst that of examples is summary
and effectuaI.
Envy, if surrounded on all sides
by the brightness of another's pros
perity, like the scorpion confined
within a circle of fire, will sting it.
self to death.-[ Cotton.
This is most true, and all history
bears testimony to it, that men may
second fortune, but they cannot
thwart her; they may weave her
web, but they cannot break it.
To pardon those absurdities in
ourselves which we cannot suffer in
others is neither better nor worse
than to be more willing to be fools
ourselves than have others so.
1t is with fortune as with fantas-
tical mistress she makes sport of
those who are ready to die for her,
and throws herself at the feet Of
others that despise her.
The cause of freedom is identified
with the destiaies of humanity; and
in whatever part of the world it
gains ground, it will be common to
all those who desire it.
BE yourself. Ape no greatness
Be willing to pass for what you are.
A good farthing is better than bad
sovereign Affect no oddness; but
dare to be right, though you have to
be singular.
'OH, dear! how came you SO wet
enquired an afectionate mother of
her son, why, ma, one of the boys
said darsn't Jump into the creek,
and by gosh l tell you l amt to be

'Mother, send for the doctor =
'Why my son Cause that man in
the parlor is going to die-he said
he would, if sister did not marry
him-and Kate said she wouldn't.
A MAN took off his coat to show
what a terrible wound he had re-
ceived some years past. 'Oh, said

"Now," said a citizen of Rawlins,

How many sickly ones wish they
were healthy how many beggar-
men wish they were wealthy; how
many ugly ones wish they we're pref
ty how many stupid ones wish they
were witty how many bachelors

THE outside world can form no
idea of the vast amount of money it
takes to conduct paper. If they
did they would not be so indifferent
about settling their dues to them,
nor would they by this Indifference
so often embarass publishers.

equally affectionate wife.

A weak female will berate a man
for letting her stand up in a horse
car, and she will then dance from ten
o'clock till two. This shows that
dancing is better than standing up.
