There are some men whose failure
to succeed in life is problem to 9TH
ers, as well as to themsel yes. They
are industrious, prudent, and econon'-
ical; yet after long life of striving,
old age finds them still poor. They
complain of i'll luck. They say fate
is always against them. But the fact
is that they miscarry because they
have mistaken mere activity for ener-
gy. Confounding two things essen-
tally different. they have supposed
that, if they were always busy. they
would be certain to be advancing their
fortunes. They have forgotten that
misdirectetl labnr Is but waste Of &C.
tivity. The person who would sue
ceed in life is like n,arksman firing
at atargei; if Lis shots miss the mark
they are a waste Of powder. So IN
the great game Of life, what man
does must he made To count. or 10
might aln,<t as well have been left
unione. Everybody knows some one
in his circle of friends, who, thougl,
always active,h this want of energy.
The distemper, if we may call ii such.
exhibits itself in various ways. In
some cases the man has merely an ex-
ecutive faculty. when he should have
q directive one; in other language, he
makes a capital clerk. for himself,
when he ought to do the thinking of
the business. In other cases what is
done is not done eiher at the right time
or in the right way. Energy. cor
rectly understood, is activity propor-
toned to the end.

The wicked practise Of swearing
which is 81 common to offend the ear
in every street is Of mere bravaslo.
Boys think il sounds manly to be pro-
fame, and men think il gives force and
character to their saying. Unlike
most other vices. it is done openly.
and it is intea'lsl by the swearer for
other peoples ears.
II will give you ten dollars said a
man to pr1fane swearer, III you
will go into the village graveyard at
twelve O'Clock tonight and swear the
same oaths you have just uttered when
you are alone with God"
Agreed saii the man, "an easy
way to make ten dollars"
"well, come tomorrow aud saw
you have done il. and YOU shall have
the money
Midnight came. The man went
into the graveyard. 1t was a night
Of darkness. As be entered the GENE.
terry not sound was heesd--all was
still as death. Then came the gentle
mans words to his mind -"Alone
with Cod" rang in his ear. H. did
not dare W sitter IN oath but asl from
the pace cryings "God be mercifal
10 me a sinner"

derstsnd that il Is in a miserable con.
dition financially; that the Treasurer
Is a long ways behind in settling with
the Professors for their salaries, and
that the University will probably sus.
pend in June next. Too much politics
aud ton much Radicalism has played
the deuce not only with the University
but with the Agricultural College as
well. Bowman, Patterson, Peters,
Everest, FIVE out Of six Professors, are
Radicals, and the Institution has
grown very unpopular. From 700
students three year ago, the roll has
dropped down to less than 800. II the
friends Of Kentucky University ever
expect to make anything Of it as a
great school they will have to have a
new cut, shuttle and deal all around !;
indeed, we don't know but that they
will have to get an entire new deck
and begin again ut the beginning. IL is
a matter for great pity that such q
noble Institution as Kentucky Univer-
sity promised in its youth should so
soon have struck the ugly simeon
which in the past has dwsrfed and
sapped the life-blood Of 20 many similar
undertakings. 1t is sad warning for
those who shall attempt like educa-
tional enterprises. Richmond Reg.

The London Lancet is reminded by
"the gorgeous displays, the festivities
and other manifestations Of rejoicing
in the East, with which the Prince oS
Wales have been welcomed" ot the
sad c ndition Of the Iepers in Bonn
bay. What Ierro-y is, no one who
has not seen il can we'll imagine; and
il is unnecessary to describe IL. But
in the Samsetjce Jejeebhoy Dhurrum-
sala, a refuge for the destitute and
sick in Bombay. the Lancet, ON the
authority Of the Times Of India, says
that there are some one hundred aud
twenty lepers lodged at the present
time, sharing its scanty accommoda-
tion with an approximatively equal
number Of the poor, aged and crippled.
The kpers live in what are caiie''
chawls or cells, some six feet long ry
five feet wide, and the institution IS
so full that often twolepers are crowd
ed into one of them. They are with
out furniture or even cooking uten-
sells, but each OF them is allowed tw"
pounds ofrice and three Picc with
which TO pay for fuel to dress their
food. They consist OF men, women
and children. the children be'ng the
offspring OF the men and women some
OF them being born IN the Dhurrum-
sala itself, for no separation Of the
sexes is attempted. or, 1t seems, even
thought OF, Unfortunate creatures
with "their limbs wasted till onIy the
outlines Of the bones remain, or else
swollen out OF all form OF limbs, SIT

ANOTHER generation will have to
come aud go, we fear, before the AMI
mosities Of the war will die out in the
hearts of Northern fanatics like Blaine
and the men who voted in favor of
his anti.universal amnesty bill. The
people of the South have, in spirit
of reconciliation and true friendship,
offered to meet their brethren Of the
North more than half way across the
bloody gulf" but the North, with
icy GOODNESS, turned their backs to
them. Time will show them to be
losers thereby.

"Cuttinga DIDO" is a phrase older
than most imagine. The husband Of
Dido, Princess Of Tyre, was Sich@,
priest Of Hercules, and that respected
gentleman was murdered for his wealth
by Pygmalion, brother to Dido. The
widowed Princess was enabled TO es-
cape from Tyree, having with her the

Walter Scott tells story Of boy
who was with him at school that al
ways stood at the head Of the class. 1t
was the custom of the scholars to
change places in their classes, accord
ing to failure or success in recitation;
hut though Walter was number two
he could not get head because this boy
never missed. Walter noticed that
he had a habit, when puzzled by
hard question, of twirling button on
his jacket, and this seemed to help him
think out a right answer.
Walter, more through mischief than
any worse motive. cut of the button
slyly one day to see If it made any
difference. The lesson was a spelling
lesson, and several boys at the foot
missed hard word 1t came round
to the head. The boy instipctively
put his hand to the button. 1t was
gone. He looked down to find it,
grew confused, missed the word, and
Walter went above. The boy never
got to the head again, seemed to lose
his ambition, settled down into Sec
ond-rate scholar, and never accomplish
ed much in lite. Walter Scott de-
clared that he often suffered sharp re-
morse at the thought that he possibly
spoiled the boy for school and tor life
by cutting off the button that had
done such good service.

so much of human happiness is de-
pendent upon the manners that no
truly benevolent person. II thoughtful,
can disregard them. We have all ex-
perienced the charm Of gentle and
courteous conduct; We have all been
drawn irresistibly to those who are
obliging. aflble, and sympathetic in
their demeanor. The friendly grasp,
the warm welcome, the CHEEKY tone,
the encouraging word, the respectful
manner, bear no small share in crea.
ting the joy of life; while the austere
tone, the stern rebuke, the sharp and
acrid remark, the cold and Indifferent
manner, the curt and disrespcctful air,
the supercilious and scornful bearing,
are responsible for more Of human
distress, despair, and woe than their
transient nature might seem to warrant.
Whether we aim at self-imprsve-
