Do Right Every Where.

There is always honor and profit
in right doing. Many Of the ISLANDERS
heaped upon rs result from dishones
ty, and the lack of stern integrity.
Mans only safety is in doing right
at all times and under all circum-
stances. 1t is Satan's trick TO make
our doings right depend on times and
seasons, on persons and places. He
who does wrong because no one will
know it will be terribly disappointed
when his sins shall find him out. He
who ceases TO be watchful and circum-
spect in the presence Of his friends,
will find that those friends in whom
be thus conflded in all unguarded
hour will betray his confidence and
become his foes-will rebuke what
they before justified, and accuse him
of the very acts which they aided and
encouraged him in.
Do right every. where. There is
no safety in sin. Confide in no one ;
presume upon nothing sufficiently to
do that which is wrong. The watch
ing eye of God is upon us, and when
we depart from him he has ten thous-
and rods with whi:h to chasten us
and corlcc. our faults. Trust not in
friends trust not in secrecy; trust
not in lies-do right everywhere,
and trust in God to give victory and
rest. Do not follow the multitude to
do evil. Do not be timc-server nor
tool. Stand boldly up for truth
and righteousness, and ever live with
q solemn consciousness Of dircctand
personal responsibility to God. Make
no compromise with error, sin, and
wrong; strike no bargains with Sa-
tan, every thing which he proposes
is trap, every thing that he suggests
is delusion and a snare. Man is
weak, Satan wily-only God is true.
Trust in him; do right everywhere,
and he shall protect, direct, and save
you at the end.

Hospitality.

One day Tommy rushed into the

there is an old woman down in the
road sitting on log; shall set
Pompey on her7''
"Set Pompey on her !" said the sis
ter, "what for2"

looking a little ashamed, "because
perhaps she is thief"
Go out, Esther, and see if the
poor woman wants any thing. Per-
haps she's tired with q hard DAYS

the mother.
Esther ran down the green, and,
perping through the gate, saw the
woman resting under the shade of the
old oak-tree.
"Should you like any thing7" ask
Esther.
THANK you," said the old woman

Esther scampered back TO tic

water from the well. and FASTENED
with it to the poor traveller.
~ thank you," said after drinking
ut tastes very good. Do on know
what the Lord Jesus said once about a

Esther was silent.
II will tell you. He said Whose.

The Freedom Of tho Press.
REvERDY JOHNSON on THE BAtr.-

BALTIMORE, July l9.-The suits
instituted in the Courts Of Common
Pleas on Friday last by the governor
of Maryland, the State comptroller
and the State treasurer respectively.
composing the board Of public works,
against the Baltimore American for
libel, the damages c!=imed being 925-
600 in each case, are likely to become
adjudicated. In ruling the cases to-
day, Reverdy Johnson rendered his
professional services to the propre-
tors Of the american, which having
been accepted, Mr.. Johnson's appear
ance was entered in each case as their
attorney. In his letter volunteering
his services, Mr.. j. hnson says: My
motive for making this offer was this,
that from the ground on which I un-
derstood the cults have been brought,
] thought that the public interest was
concerned and that the freedom and
usefulness Of the public press were
involved. This being my impression,
I cannot agree to receive any pecuni-
ary compensation. Owing to the
high official and equally high social
character and reputation Of the plain
tiffs there can be no likelihood of
compromise or settlement short OF a
decision of q legal tribunal !; the ofH-
cial conduct Of these gentlemen being
involved on the one part in these
cases, and the extent Of the right and
liberty Of the press to criticise and
charge corruption TO public officers
on the other" The suits have nj.
ready attracted attention throughout
the State, both parties being repre-
sented by the abiest counsel IL Nary

DoN'r ScoLD.-For tho sake of
your children, don't do it. Il is u
great misfortune to have children
reared in the presence and under the
influence of scold. The effect of
the everlasting fault finding of
persons is to make the young who
hear it unamiable, malicious, callous
hearted and they ofton learn to take
pleasure in doing the very things for
which they receive such tongue lash
ings. AS they are always getting
the blame of wrong-doing, whether
they deserve il or not, they think

A Boys idea Of Heado.

Hends are OF different shapes and
size. They are full Of notions. Large
heads do not always hold the most.
Some persns can tell what q man is
by the shape of his head. High heads
are the best kind. Very knowing peo
pie nre called long headed. A fellow
that wont stop for any thing or any
hody is called hot-hcaded. If be is not
quite 80 bright he is called soft-head-
ed. If he wont be coaxed nor turned
they call him pig-headed. Animals
have very small heads. The heads
Of fools slant back. When your head
is cut off you are be-headed. our
heads are covered with hair, except
bald-heads. There are barrel-heads
head-Of sermons-and some ministers
used to have fifteen heads to one SER
noD--pin.heads, heads-of-cat,ie, as
the farmer calls his COWS and oxen
bead winds, drum-heads, cabbage
heads, logger-heads, come-to- ahead
heads of-chapters, head-him- off, head
of-ot-the family, and go-a-head-but
first be sure you are right; but the
the worst Of all heads are dead-heads,

A Clean Apron.

A lady wanted a tristy little maid
to come and help her to take charge
Of a baby. Nobody could recomm end
one, and she hardly knew where to
look for the right kind Of girl. One
day she was passing through IL by
lane, and saw little girl with a clean
apron holding baby in the doorway
of q small house. "'rhere is the maid
for me" said the lady. She stopped
and asked fer her mother. "AIother
has gone out to work." answered the
girl "father Is dead, and now mother
has to do every thing" "Should you
not like to come and live with me 2"
asked the lady. ~ should like to
help mother somehow" said the little
maid. The lady, more pleased than
ever with the tidy looks of tic girl,
went to see her mother after she
came home and the end Of it was
the lady took the maid to live with
her, and she fuund-what indeed she
expected to find-thnt the neat ap-
pearance Of her person showed the
neat and orderly bent Of her mind.
She had no careless habits, she was
no friend 10 dirt; but everything she
had TO do with was folded up and
put away, and kept carefully. The
lady finds great comfort in her, and
helps her mother, whote lrt is not now
so hard as it was. She smiles when
she says, 'Sally's recommendation
was her clean apron y and who will
say it was not gooa one ?-Obser.

NO INTEREST IN THE BLACK
MAN.

MAN.
A recent dispatch from Washing
ton says:
IA meeting was held here for the
purpose Of taking measures towards
establishing a weekly journal in
Washington, to be managed cxclu-
sively by colored men, and devoted
to the interest Of the colored people.
Frederick Douglas, Professors Lang
ston and Wilson, and other promi-
ncnt men Of that race, earnestly sec.
onded the views Of the Rev. George
W. Williams, of Boston, who came
here to establish such a journal, the
general sentiment being that this was
absolutely necessary, ns the white
man no longer took an interest in
The black man. Various sums of
money were subscribed to aid in the
enterprise"
It is just as we'll for colored men
to publish q paper as anybody else.
But we have come to strange pass
III our history, if no one can vindi-
cate the interest of our common hu-
manity, but must simply represent
His oicn complexion. We should like
TO know what there is of color in the
declaration Of independence "that all
men arc born free and equal" and
what is the use TO say it was or was
not coloEed man who wrote it7 It
is great fundamental truth of equal
interest to ali complcxions, and de-
,nanding the boon Of freedom alike
for ali.
It is an infamous slandcr on the
philanthropy and Christianity Of the
white man to say that lie is no longer
interested for his colored brother.
How many have sacrificed to give
him freedom and aid him to maintain
it? How many are doing all in their
power to give to all, without refer.
ence TO complexion, the means OF ed
ucation? Some are still cndcavor-
ing, amid the deserts and malaria Of
Africa to point the benighted to the
lamb Of God, that taketh away the
sirs Of the world. a. Cox would not
abandon bis purpose Of being mis-
sionary to Africa, not for the cling
ing embrace Of ,nother'a love, or
the fond endearmelts OF home and
country. But he waa white man
and represents thousands who have
the same devotion to the interests of
our common humanity. We ask
these stioklers for race distinction to
pause ere they enter the contest for
war Of races. The white man has
the same rights to make race combi-
nations and enter upon race conflicts
and distinctions as the colored man,
but either in doing it arc fighting
against God and humanity. We are
OF one blood, and arc living together
in America under the same form OF
government, with mutual rights and
privileges. The conflicts for which
we should feel a common intereat are
those for the triumphs of great prin-
ciples of truth and righteousness,
Which vindioate the rights Of all, and
will elevate and bless all who are
governed by them. This selGshness
OF man is in conflict with God, and
the peace and prosperity Of the great
family Of man.
