position and example are most remark
able. The firm is composed Of two mem
bers one came here from Ohio and the
other Tennessee; one was a Federal SOL
dier and the other Confederate-bot
carrying scars from wounds received in
battle during the late war. No two bust
ness partners were ever more friendly and

beautiful as that of brothers dwelling to-
gether in unity" And when we add that
one is Scotch Presby terrain and the other

rarest and strongest case on record.-Pp-

Discouraged.

It is so easy to say, ''Never give up the
ship" 1t is SO easy to hold your head up
and step firmly, to laugh cheerily, and have
a pleasant word for everybody, when safely
hedged in from sorrow and poverty by the
love of friends and bottomless purse.
When sickness passes by to knock at some
other door, when home is the one ';sweet,
safe corner'' in all the world, when there
are those who would suffer that you might
go free-ah then it is easy to feel as if
nothing could eyer. make you quite dis
couraged. This is beautiful world, and
there are lots Of good things in it. Yes,
many son and daughter, few wives and
mothers, and about the same proportion of
husbands and fathers, do live more in the
shine than in the shadow of life. But
there are SO many, so many more, who have
to buckle on their armOr, and spend their
best hearts blood in the daily life. Such
bitter trials as men and women do live
through! Who can doubt that heaven
sends them their fortitude +? 1t cannot be
of earth. Such strains of heart and brain
as hearts and brains do still bear up under!
Is it any wonder that weary hands some
times fall despondingly, and weary heads
bow discouraged? Oh ye, whose paths
are in the pleasant places! whose faith
was never tried by heaven seeming disre-
gard of your prayers and tears who never
knew the lack of tender home-love and
protection, exult in your happiness, and
thank Providence. But while you drink
from your cup of life such honey-sweet
draughts, give thought now and then to
those whose daily potions SAVIOR so strong
Iy of NORWOOD, and remember that a
kindly word and helping hand, which
cost SO little, may make lighter the bur
dens of some one now almost discouraged.

A TREMENDOUS TALKER.--COleridge
was prodigal of his words, which, in fact,
he could with difficulty suppress; but he
seldom talked of himself or his affairs. He
was very speculative, very theological,
very metaphysical, and not unfrequently
threw in some little pungent sentence,
characteristic of the defects of some of his
acquaintance. In illustration of his I'M
failing talk, will give an account of one
of his days when 1 was present. He had
come from Highgate to London, for the
sole purpose of consulting a friend about
his son Hartley (''our dear Hartley''), to-
wards whom he expressed, and have no
doubt felt, much anxiety. He arrived
about one or two O'Clock, in the midst of
conversation which Immediately began to
interest him. He struck into the middle
of the talk very soon, and held the tear of
the house" until dinner made it's appear
ance about four O'Clock. He then talked
all through the dinner, all the afternoon,
all the evening, with scarcely a single in
terruption. He expatiated on this subject
and on that: he drew fine distinctions; he
made subtle criticisms. He descended to
anecdotes logical, rhetorical;
he dealt with law, medicine and divinity,
until, at last, five minutes before eight
O'Clock, the servant came in and announced
that the Highgate stage was at the corner
of the street, and was waiting to convey
Mr.. Coleridge home. Coleridge immedia-
tely started up, obliyious of all time, and
said, in hurried voice, ''My dear z,
will come to you some other day, and
talk to you about our dear HartleY.'' He
had quite forgotten his son and everybody
else, in the delight of having such an en-
raptured audience.

Bgotistic Takers.

Almost every circle is blessed with the
egotist, who exercises kind of dictator
ship over it. Are you in mistake as to a
matter of fact ? He cannot suffer you to
proceed until you are corrected. Have
you word on the end of your tongue ?
He at once comes to your relief. Do you
talk bad grammar? He quotes rules and
gives examples like pedagogue. Does he
discover there is a link wanting in the
chain of your argument? He bids you
stay till he has supplied it. Do you drop a
word to which he has devoted much re-
search ? He inquiries it's primitive signif-
cation, and directly inflicts upon the cir
Gle long pathological disquisition. When
you relate an incident which you suppose
new and affecting your friend listens with
out emotion. When you have done, he OBJ
serves that he has heard the same long ago
and adds very material circumstance
which you omitted. He is never taken by
surprise, and it is impossible to give him
any information. And yet he never takes
the lead in conversation, nor advances an
original thought. 1t is his business to
come after, and pick up the words which
others let slip in a running talk, or to
check their impetuosity, that he may point
out to them their misteps. Had he lived
in the days of Solomon, he would have fiat
tered the royal sage with an intlmation
that some of his proverbs were plagiarisms;
or, had he been contemporary of Solo
mons father, he would have felt himself
bound to give the slayer of Goliath some
lessons on the use Of the sling, and limited
to the sweet singer Of Israel his private
opinion that the shepherd bard did not
perfectly understand the use of the harp.

The dead leaves by the garden gate,
And cawing crows for thee will wait,

We're faint with perfume, glad with song?
Where vert thou when the days were long,
And stepped in summers young delights?
What hopest thou now but checks and Sights,
Brief days, lone nights?

the hands. If you would rob it of all it's
terrors and have it purify the skin as well

To ROAST CoFFEE.-If you desire to
have extra fine favored coffee, buy the
green coffee-pure Java. Pick it over,
wash it well, drain it, and spread it out on
pie-pans; roast it in a moderate oven, OF
on top Of the range; stir it often to keep
it from burning, and roast it until it is q
good-brown; then drop a small piece of
butter in each pan and mix it up just
enough to make the coffee shine; grind it
fresh every morning. The flavor will then
equal, if not excel, the Vienna coffee.
