The Republicans raised Hayes
and Wheeler flag here on the 4th inst.
On the following Wednesday morning
a game Democrat rooster was perChed
on top of the pole which is l02 high.
He tapped his wings in defiance, and
looking down in scorn and contempt
upon the streamer upon which Hayes
and Wheeler's names were emblazon-
ed, gave an exultant democratic
crow. 1t is supposed he roasted there
all night. That chicken has the right

The SuIary Bays oTSuu,mcr.

Hot weather is very exharsting upon
the energies, and its influence renders
the system peculiarly liable to disease.
During the close and sultry days ofJu-
ly and August, Diarrh@a, Dysentery,
Cholera Morbus, Cramps, Collie, and
pains in the stomach ale common and
fatal diseases. 1t is not enough to
trust to n curative when attacked, for
it is essential to take proper meaures
for their prevention. An unfailing
prevention of all summer complaints
exists in DR.. RADCLIFF's SEVEN SEALS
oR'GoLpEN WONDER; and this stand
ard vegetable preparation is no less eff
ficacious as a cure. Thousands have
used it for all diseases incident to the
summer solstice, and always with the
happiest results. Complete cures are
effected in the worst eases.

The FOLLY OF PRIDE.-The very witty
and sarcastic Rev. Sydney Smith thus dis
~courseth on the folly of pride in such 4 crea-
tlre as man : "After all, take some quiet,
sober moment of life, and add together the
two ideas of pride and of man ; behold him,
creature of a span high, stalking through in
finite space in all the grandeur Of littleness.
Perched on a speck of the Universe, every
wind of heaven strikes into his blood the
GOODNESS of death his. soul floats from his
body like a melody from the string; day
and night, as dust on the wheel, he is rolled
along the heavens, through a labyrinth of
worlds, and all the creatures of God are
flaming above and beneath. Is this crea-
ture to make himself a crown of glory, to
deny his own flesh, to mock at his fellow,
sprung from that dust to which both will
soon return2 Does the proud man not err!

struments, including pulikins !" for extract
ing teeth, and trepans for drilling holes in
the skull. There are any number of shoe
maker, tailor and blacksmith tools, and in
deed implements of almost every present
mechanical operation. Taken altogether,
the collection of articles taken from the city
is a surprising revelation to every one, show
ing that the ancients invented and perfected
ten thousand implements and articles of
common life which we still use with little
improvement thereon, and without giving
them credit therefor.

hearts. A bold liar will deny a true accusa-
ton with a perfectly candid face, while the

plcion, bushes guilty, A man who was
tried for and convicted of murder, and who
confessed his crime before his execution,
was admitted while on trial to be as fine
looking and prepossessing in appearance as
one on the bench, at the bar, or in the jury

lives had been in the highest degree honora-
bic, and whose personal appearance conld
scarcely b esexcelled by any equal number of
men anywhere. 1t is notorious that circum-
stances of easy living, the absence of bust
ness cares and worries, will do much to-
ward smoothing away the marks of crime;
while faces of criminals who have lived in
circumstances of physical hardship gather a
rough brutality from which we instinctively
shrink.

ABOUT FACES.

One of the wonderful things in life of
which we never think is the fact thatamong
all the multitude of people who inhabft this
globe, no two can be found that exactly re-
semble each other. Even in cases of twins,
where a strong similarity exists, there is al
ways to be found some points Of difference
by which those most intimately ac-
quainted with them are. enabled to dis
tinguish one from the other. And it may
be further observed that those most alike in

greater or lesser degree, as age advances

which shows that the wheels Of progress
move slow:
One of the most interesting features of the
excavations in the buried city is the discov-

which we have counterparts. 1t is astonish-

kitchen, ~dining-room, or chamber article

BENEFIT OF SOCIAL PLEASURE.

That nature is defective which has no love
Or capacity for social enjoyment. Social
powers shouldb be developed and %providedfor.
The higher powers are stimulated or refresh
ed by the proper exercise of all these humber
members OF the intellectual household which
while not assuming the rule, are yet an indis-
pensable part of the family. TO. most of us
these remarks are truisms, but what are we
doing aboutit?
Do we appreciate the necessity of social
amusements for the young, Or realize the
keenness %ofyouthful enjoyment in congenial
society?
Many a weary brain-worker has been ready
to place among the benefactors of mankind
those who opened to him the treasures of an
elegant home and surrounded him, for an
hour, with genial and cultivated spirits, with
whom to enjoy them. It is a great mistake
to suppose that the old, or those past the meri-
dian oflife, are untitled by their age for pleas
ure of this kind. In Germany, persons of
three generations may often be seen enjoying
the same amusements, the pleasures of those
In each extreme ofage being augmented by
the presence of those in the other. Not on
ly the highest pleasure, but the greatest ben
eft of cheerful intercourse, result from the
mingling of old and young in the same COM
pany. A party Of old people grooming over
their infirmities and the degeneracy of the
times, is no more denaoralizing than one COM
posed wholly of the very young, whose ig-
norance and indiscretion may lead to follies
o rwhich a lifelong repentance cannot atone.
The necessity for mutual entertainment
which a company of mingled old and young
calls forth, is the best discipline for both NOR
MS and manners, and, like most other discip-
line of ones life, is attended, with a pleas
ure which mere selfish indulgence can never
give.

Does he not suffer? Does he not die? Wren
he reasons, is he never stopped by difficult
ties? When he acts, is he never tempted by
pleasure? When he lives, is he free from
pain? When he dies, can he escape the
common grave? Pride is not the heritage
Of man. Humility should dwell with frail-
.ty, and atone for ignorance, error and Inn,
perfection.

HITTING THE WRONG "BoY.n

Ihe habit of carrying on" stirs the
blood, but it is not always safe, especially
when one is not sure of his company. Some
Ledger:
The following amusing incident occur ed
not long since in a book store, not a thou
sand miles from Cornhill (Boston). ANUS
ing it certainly was, though the hero of the
occasion has not yet quite regained his
equanimity.
The clerks in this store had acquired a
habit of playing off little tricks upon each
other-practical joking, they called it-and
one OF the tricks was this: If one of the
clerks CHANGED to see another in a STOPPING
posture, selecting books from lower shelves,
he would seize a board, perhaps part Of a
box-cover, and smartly spank the STOPPING
victim.
Jerry P. was one of these clerks, a simple
minded, ~good-natured fellow from Vermont;
always willing and ready for the hardest
kind of work, and priced by his employers
chief victim of the spanking process, and he
was determined upon reyenge-not with
maleyolence, nor yet with Indignation, bat
simply in the way of fair play. To this end
he lay low, watching for a favorable oppor-
tunity.
On afternoon, upon returning to the
store from an errand, the longed-for ppor-
tunity seemed to present itself, and Jerry
seized it q nstanter. AT the far end of one of
the long counters, he saw an individual
overhauling books on the very bottom shelf,
his body bent at a most tempting angle.
Jerry was sure it was Tom S., from whose
hands he had received many an emphatic
spank, and now was the time to pay off old
scores. So he selected a splendid board,
and creeping noiselessly to he spot, he gave
the STOPPING man a blow that sounded
through the store like the bursting of a re-
tort, and brought him to an erect position
like a jack-in-a-box.
Here was a fix. Tom S., at the sound of
the blow, appeared from another part of the
store, while the gentleman who had been
struck stood In utter bewilderment, rubbing
away at the aching part most assiduously.
Poor Jerry then discovered, to his dismay
and deep regret, that he had struck his en-
ployer's pastor, Rev. DR.. B., who had been
curionsly searching among a lotof old Greek
and Hebrew books. Jerry Wept with shame
and confusion, and was forgiven; and from
that time that particular species OF amuse-
ment was discontinued in the store
