Wild Sheep Hunting.

From Hatteras Inlet to Oakracoke
Inlet-a distance of twenty-five miles
stretches a strip of bleak sand-hills.
One-half is totally desolate-this is
claimed by the salt waves of the bois-
ferrous Atlantic; the remaining half is
lavcd by the waters of Pamlico Sound.
Upon this half vegetation is plenty ;
immense canebrakes, and forests of low
trees-so low that a man has to stOop,
and in this painful position, with great
difficulty, slowly pick his way. (This
tree is called Oopou, or Indian tea; its
leaves are gathered, dried and used by
the natives of that locality as substitute
for the genuine article. It resembles in
flavor the tea called "English break
fast.")
These forests are the homes of great
herds of wild sheep-sheep of the COM
mon kind strayed from the folds OF man,
which had found secure shelter and
abundance under the dark-green leaves
of these fantastic trees; there multiply
ing till now they are looked upon as
common property, and often an object OF
the hunters search. They are difficult
of approach, keeping far into the depths
of the woods 1t is most tedious work
pushing your way through the high
reeds and canes, which rise to the lower
branches of the trees; but, look sharp,
and You may catch glimpse of the
object Of your search quietly nipping
the leaves above him. II possible, you
drive them upon the sand-hills, where
they are more readily shot. The flesh Of
the younger sheep Is very tender and
sweet--a most delicious repast to one
who has crawled through such obstacles
for its capture.

Subjects for Thought.

Having searched in all kinds of science,
we discover the folly of neglecting those
things which concern human life and in
volving ourselves in difficulties about
questions that are but mere notions; we
should confne ourselves to nature and
reason. Fancies beyond the reach of
the understanding, and which have yet
been made the objects of beljef-these
have been the source Of all the disputes,
errors and superstitions that have pre-
vailed in the world; such notional mys-
teries can not be made subservient to the
right uses of humanity.
1t is much easier to think Alright with
out doing right, than to do right without
thinking Alright. Just thoughts may
fail of producing just deeds, but just
deeds always beget just thoughts. For,
when the heart is straight, there is
hardly anything which can mislead the
understanding In matters of immediate
concernment; but the purest understand
ing can do little in purifying an impure
heart, or the strongest in Strengthening
a crooked one.
Most marvellous and enviable that
fecundity of fancy which can adorn what
ever it touches, which can invest naked
fact and dry reasoning with an unlocked
for beauty, make fowerets bloom even
on the brink of the precipice, and when
nothing better can be had, can turn the
very substance of rock itself into moss
and lichen. This faculty is incomparably
the most important for the vivid and at
tractive exhibitions of truth to the minds
of men.
If you want to be miserable, think
about yourself; about what you want,
what you like, what respect people ought
to pay you, what people think of you,
and then to you nothing will be pure.
You will spoil everything you touch !;
you will make sin and misery for yourself
out of everything which God sends you;
you will be as wretched as you choose OH
earth or in heaven either.
The God of "the true, the good, and
the beautiful" is painting everything
that grows in this part of the earth in
colors beyond the power of man to trans
fer to canvas. Flower, grass, tree, sky,
in fact everything that comes from His
creating hand, attest the faultless taste,
the wonderful wisdom of Him who reigns
on high.
Why will people whisper in a sick
room9 Some one has said, 1t is better
to slam stove doors, rattle shovel and
tongs, or make similar noises, than to
whisper in the presence of a sick person."
Quiet ways are preferable, and very
necessary, but inveterate whispering
should be totally banished from the sick
room.
