We are now able to make brandy from

greatly disturbed the "Amens," 'GIo-

whose piety was manifested to the dis
comfort of the pastor and people. The
preacher asked brother deacon to re-
quest the old man to discontinue, which
he did, and not another word was heard.

THE OLD SILKER DOLLAR.

How dear 10 my heart are the coins OF my child
hood
When fond recollection recalls them to view
Old dads scanty gifts in occasional mild mood
The hardly gained "pelf' which my lnhnc!
knew.
The old'iashioned copper with green rust cor
roded
The smoothesIded "levy" and sixpences small
The pilastered quarters" by long use eroded,
The old silver dollar loved better than all.
The old silver dollar our dads legal dollar;
The bright, shining dollar, loved better than all
Its broad, cleaning disk did hail as treasure,
The promised reward Of long hours In the field
To grasp It's dear form was an exquisite pleasure
The strongest and keeneSt that money could
yield.
How ardent seized 1t, with hands that were itch
ing;
And quick to the long pockets bottom II fell,
There carefully guarded from wasteful bewitching
TIL yielded at last TO the circusman's spell.
The old silver dollar our dads legal dollar;
The bright shining dollar, that they loved 80
WELL
How good from the huckster's grlmmed hand to
receiveit,
As pay for our butter, our eggs and our Sass"
The crispes Of bills could not tempt me TO leave II
Though the bank note deteCtor pronounced It
first class.
Since now is discarded that loved legal tender,
The tears OF regret will increasingly fall,
AS fancy TeVerts to It's size and Its splendor,
Iyearn for the dollar loved better than all.
The old silver dollar our dads legal dollar;
The bright, shining bollar, loved better than all.

SELECTED MISCELLANY

To be thrown upon ones own re-
sources is to be cast into the very lap of
fortune; for our faculties then undergo a
development, and display an energy of
which they were previously unsuscepti-
ble.- Franklin.
l heard Cardinal Imperiali saw
There is no man whom fortune does not
visit once in his life; but when she does
not find him ready to receive her, she
walks in at the door and out at the win
dow Montesquieu,
The horses which make the most show
are, in general, those which advance the
least. 1t is the same with men; and we
ought not to confound that perpetual ag-
itaton which exhausts itself in vain ef-
forts, with the activity which goes right
to the end Baron de Stassart.
The mere leader of fashion has no
genuine claim to supremacy at least no
abiding assurance of it. He has en-
broidered his title upon his waistcoat and
carries his worth in his watch chain; and
if he is allowed any real precedence for
this it is almost moral swindle-a way
of obtaining goods under false preten-
ces.-[ Chaplin.
Lessons of wisdom have never such
power as when they are wrought into the
heart through the groundwork of story
which engages the passions! Is it that we
are like iron and must first be heated
before we can be wrought upon; or Is
the heart so in love with deceit that
where true report will not reach, we
must cheat it with a fable in order to
come at the truth (Sterne.
The queen Of error, whom you call
Fancy and opinion, is the more deceit
full because she does not deceive always.
She weuld be the infallible rule of false>
hood; but being only most frequently in
error she gives no proof of her real quail
ity, for she marks with the same char.
acter both that which is true and that
which is false Pascal.
A man that loves to be peevish and
paramount, and to play the sovereign at
every turn, does but blast the blessings
of life, and swagger away his enjoys
ments; and not to enlarge upon the folly,
not to mention the injustice Of such be-
havior, is of little unbenevolent tenn
per, 1t is disease and discredit all
over, and there is no more greatness in
it than in the swellings of dropsy,-[Jer>

THE HOUR OF DEATH.

Leaves have their time to fall,
| And flowers to wither at the north Winds breat
And stars to set-but all,
Thou hast all seasons for thine own, oh, Death
Day is for mortal care,
Eve for glad meetings round the Joyous hearth,
Night for the dreams Of sleep, the voice Of pray
err
But all for thee, thou mightest the earth
The banquet hath It's hour
It's feverish hour of mirth, and song, and wine;
There comes day for grief.s Overwhelming
power,
time for softer tears but all are thine.
Youth and the opening rose
May look like things too glorious for decay,
And smile at thee-but thou art not of those
That wait the ripened bloom to seize their prey.
We know when moons shall wane,
When summer birds from far shall cross the sea,
When autumn's nue. shall tinge the golden
grain
But who shall teach us when to look for thee?
Is 1t when springs first gale
comes lOrth 10 whisper where the vi0lets lie
Is sitwhen roses in our paths grow pale?-
They have one season-Gl are ours to die
Thou art where billows foam,
Thou art where music melts upon the air:
Thou art around us in our peaceful home
And the world calls us forth, and thou art there.
Thou art where friend meets friend,
Beneath the shadow of the elm to rest
Thou art where foe meets foe, and trumpets
Tend
The skies, and swords beat down the princely
crest
Leaves have their time to fall
And flowers to wither at the north winds breath
And stars to set-but all,
Thou hast all seasons for thine own, oh, Death
