A THOUGHTFUL TAILOR.

A young man from one of the suburban
districts, says the Danbury Neaos, was i'll
one of our tailor-shops getting measured
for vest the other afternoon.
Married or single ?" queried the mer-
chant, after taking down the number.
''Unmarried," said the young man, with
blush. i
'Inside pocket on the left-hand side,
then," observed the tailor, as if to himself,
making memorandum to that effect. Af-
ter moments pause the young man from
the country was prompted to ask:
'sWhat difference does my being married
or unmarried make with the inside pocket
of my vest ?''
sOh, my dear SIR" observed the tailor
with bland smile, 'sall the difference pos
sible, as you must see. Being unmarried
you want the pocket on the left side, so as
to bring the young lady's picture next to
the heart"
sBut don't the married man also wear
his wife's picture next to his heart ?"
queried the anxious youth.
"Possibly there is an instance of that
kind, ''said the tailor, arching his eye
brows, ''but never heard of it."

LOCKE ON HUMAN HAPPINESS.

1t is mans proper business to seek hap
pines and avoid misery. Happiness consists
in what delights and contents the mind, mis-
cry is what disturbs, discomposes or tor
ments it. l will therefore make it my bust
ness to seek satisfaction and delight, and
avoid uneasiness and disquiet. Let me
then see wherein consists the most lasting
pleasures of life: 1, Health without which
no sensual pleasure can have any relish. 2,
Reputation that find everybody is
pleased with, and the want oft is constant
torment. 8, knowledge, for the little know
ledge have find would not sell at any
rate, nor part with for any other pleasure.
4, Doing good, for find the well-cooked
meat eat to-day does now no more delight
me and am diseased after full meal; the
perfumes smelt, yesterday, now no more
affect me with pleasure; but the good turn l
did yesterday, year, seven years since, CON-
tinues still to please and delight me as often
as reflect on it. S, The expectation of eter-
nal and incomprehensiblen happiness in an
slant pleasure with it. If then, will faith
fully pursue that happiness l propose to
myself whatever pleasures offers itself to
me, must carefully look that it cross not
any of those five great and constant pleas
ures above mentioned. For example, the
fruit see tempts me with the taste of it that
/ love, but if it endanger my health, part
with constant and lasting for a very short
and transient pleasure, and so foolishly
make myself unhappy, and am not true TO
my own interest. Hunting plays and other
innocent..diversions delight me; if make use
of them to refresh myself after study and
business, they preserve my health, restore
the vigor of my mind, and increase my pleas
ure; but if spend all, or the greatest part
of my time in them, they hinder my i'm
provement in knowledge and useful arts,
they blast my credit, and give me up to the
uneasy state of shame, ignorance and con
tempt, in which 1 cannot but be very unhap-
by. Drinking, gaming and vicious delights
will do me this mischief not only by vast
ing my time, but by positive efficacy en-
danger my health, impair my parts, imprint
ill habits, lessen my esteem, and leave a
constant, lasting torment on my conscience.

THE GREAT TROUBLE WITH sMoKERs..

THE GREAT TROUBLE WITH SMOKERS
Cigar smoke expelled from the mouth con-
tains enough of the nicotine to hurt the
eyes severely, but smoke fully charged with
the poison direct from the bowl of the pipe
or tip of the cigar is proportionately more
painful and injurious. If the smoker can
keep the fumes of the consuming weed from
his eyes, of course smoking will not affect
his sight. The greatest trouble with smok-
ers is that there is most temptation to in
dulge in their favorite habit while reading
or writing. At such times their eyes are
most exposed. We know Of gentleman
who lost one eye, and came near losing
both, by the habit of sitting upon high
stool in his counting room and bending for
ward and read a newspaper spread out upon
his desk, while indulging himself with Oh
gar. The frequent flow of the smoke upon
the eyeball finally effected his sight, black
spot--at FIRST insignifcanr but gradually
growing more perceptible and annoying
appearing before his vision. Gradually a
film formed over the pupil of the eye, and
when two late to save it he discovered the
cause. .asil5gNss4 VI. s0i ga

MEET ME in HEAVEN, MOTHER DEAR
BY ALFRED GENTRY.

Meet me in heaven mother dear,
Upon that blissful shore,
Where Wen ne'er take the parting hand,
And death shall come no more!
Meet me in heaven mother dear,
Where we shall be at rest,
And sing amid angelic choirs
The songs of Zion's blest.
When shall we see our blessed Lord.
And dwell in his embrace:
Zen join the bright wing d angel guards
That hover near his face. .5i.
Where we shall bask forever in
The sunshine of his love;
And being pure and free from sin
He'll hide our lives above.
With Christ our great Redeemer stand
In tenderest embrace,
In that delightful, happy land
And sing his glorious grace.
Then, oh. my dear, my mother dear,
Wilt thou not come to me?
The vale of death thOu need'st not fear,
He entered it for thee.
o blessed Lord thy wondrous love,
Thy precious love to me!
How did thy swelling bosom heave
In thy great agony
Upon the shameful cross, for me,
On Calvarys rugged height;
That might be forever free
From sins destructive blight
Thus didst thou bow thy sacred head
In sorrow and in blood;
And cen full atonement made
To bring us home to God;
To dwell with thee in thy bright home
Where sickness is no more;
And through eternal ages roam
And praise thee evermore.
Fen feel amidst its happy throng
That we are blest indeed;
And sing the everlasting song,
From sin forever freed.
Then when we're safely housed above,
We'll tell our sufferings DER;
And sing of his redeeming love,
His wondrous love and power.
Then, meet me, dear, my mother dear,
Upon that shining shore;
Where Deaths cold grippe we ne'er shall fear,
And sorrow comes no more!
There with the white robed angel band,
Wen strike the tuneful Tyre;
And round the gorgeous throne We'll stand,
And his great love admire.

following paragraph:
The immediate object sought in the

placing its Chief Magistracy in sbey-

LONDON, December 9.-Mr. Gladstone,

personally responsible for the govern
ment's position. Ottoman supremacy
should be abolished throughout the in
surgeut provinces; foreign Intervention

although he admitted that the bureau
cracy and the military party ought to be
regarded With suspicion. England, in
accordance Eith her duty and traditions,
ought to Loyalty participate in the liber-
alton Of the East.
