Waste no Time.

Time lost can never be rcgained,
After allowing yourself proper time
for rest don't live a single hour of
your life without doing exactly what
is to be done in it, and going straight
through with it from beginning to
end. Work, play, study, whatever
it is, take hold of it at once, and fin,
ish it up squarely and clearly; then
to the next thing without lettingany
moments drop out between 1t is
wonderful to see how many hours
these prompt people make out of q
day; it is as if they picked up the
moments that the dawdlers lost.
And if you ever find yourself where
you have so many things pressed up
on you that you hardly know where
to begin, let me tell you a secret.
Take hold of the very first one that
comes to hand, and you will find the
rest all fall into file and follow after
like company of well-drilled SOL
diers, and though work may be hard
to meet when it charges you in a
squad it is easily vanquished if you
can bring it into line.

The Worth Of BattIe.FieIds.


Men do fight, no doubt, from mere
recklessness, from hope Of plumber or
glory; and sometimes they have been
whipped to it. But more often, when
they go where one out of every four
or five is likely to fall, it is with the
nobler motive uppermost, and felt
with a burning earnestness, too,
which only the breath Of the near-at-
hand death can fan up. No! there is
reason enough why battlc-felds
should be, as they are, places Of pill
grimage. The rcmotenoss Of the
struggle hardly diminishes the in
terest with which we visit its scene;
Marathon is as sacred as if the Greeks
conquered there last year. Nor, on
the other hand, do we need poetic
haze from a century or two Of inter
vening time; Gettysburg was a con-
secrated spot to all the world before
its dead were buried. There need be
no charm of nature; there are tracts
of mere sand in dreary Brandenburg,
where old Frederick, with Prussia
in his hand, supple and tough as if
plated into a nation out of whip
cord, scouragcd the world; and these
tracts are precious. On the other
hand, the grandest natural features
seem almost dwarfed and paltry be-
side this commissioning interest.

New York Is to-day 20 divided into rings
and factions that 1t is almost safe to assert
that Senstor Bayard or any highly respect
able Democrat residing outside of
the State, would receive a more
cordial and united support from
the Democracy of New York than Mr..
Tilden or any Democrat residing in it. We
all know how Ohio was divided and dis.
tracted last fall; the wounds are yet fresh,
and no one of her public men could cor.
daily unite all the elements of opposition
to Radicalism there, while many honest
men, would, unwisely if you please, like to
punish New York Tor what they believed
was improper interference in their State
race, the bitterness developed at the con-
vention in New York in July 1868, by the
unfortunate antagonism between distin-
guished citizens Of Indiana and Ohio for the
nomination there, would in all probability
break out afresh In certain contingencies at
st. Louis. From all such complications
the Senator from Delaware is free. The
people of the whole country have conf
dence that he would carry out fully what
the New York Democratic convention the
other day declared as their settled convic
ton. "That return to the constitutional
principles of frugal expenditure and the
administrative purity of the founders of the
Republic, is the first and most imperious
necessity of the times, the commanding
issue now before the people of the Union.'
