ABeautiful Sentiment.

Shortly before hls departure for India, the lamented Heber, preached sermon, which con tained this beautiful sentiment:
 Life bears us on like the stream of mighty rlvcr. Our boat glides down the mighty channel-t through the playful murmuring of the little brook, and the winding of it's grassy borders. The trees shed their blossoms over our young heads, the flowers on the brink seem to offer themselves to our young hands; we are happy in hope, and grasp eagerly at the beauties around us-but the stream hur- ries on, and still our hands are empty. Our course in youth and manhood is along a wilder flood, amid objects that are more strik- ing and magnificent. We are an imated at the moving pictures of enjoyment and industry passing us; we are excited at some short lived disappointment. The stream bears us on and the joys and grief are alike left behind us. We may be ship wrecked; we can not be delayed, whether rough or smooth the river hastens to it's home till the roar ol the ocean is in our ears, and the tossing of the waves is beneath our feet, and the land lessons from our eyes, and the floods are lifted around us, and we take our leave of earth and it's inhabitants, until of our further voyage there is no witness, save the Infinite and Eternal.

Always speak the truth.

Good character is above all things else.
 Kind words will keep old friends and make new ones.
 Happiness consists in being perfectly satisfied with what we've got and what we haven't got.
 Humility is grace not merely ornamental, but essential!-not what may be in the christian, but what must be.
 A woman's head is always in fuenced bv her heart; but a man s heart is always influenced by his head.

 HAD BUSINESS IDEAs.-Recent- ly when lame beggar halted q man on Woodward avenue and asked for aims the pedestrian seemed to look kindly on him, and asked him to step up stairs into his office and he would see about it. The beggar followed him up to the top story of the block, into an office, took seat by the stove, and when the gen tleman had hung up his overcoat and poked up the fire he said:
 "So you want aims, do youY
 Please heaven l do,' was the reply.
 What claim have you on char ity?'
 Well, dunno, only I'm awful poor"
 Il can't give you cent" said the gentleman. You haven't made out clear case, and there fore you will get nothing from me-"
 "Why didn't you say so ut the foot of the stairs" asked the beg gar, remembering it was three pairs up and three pairs down.

Very Useful to Every One.

In no other way can person get back so large a profit for a very little money, as to expend 1t it in learning what to do, when to do it, and how to do it---in other words, to have his brains help his hands. Here is one way to do this: The small saving or ex- tra production of less than half . cent day, or 3 cents week, will now procure a large, beauti- full, cheap Journal, for all of 1877, splendidly illustrated, with over 600 fine original engravings, and over q thousand columns of the very best, plain, practical, trust worthy information about the every day indoor and outdoor work and comfort of every home, in the country, village, and city. This information is not prepared by mere scribblers, but by large force of intelligent working men and women, who know what they write about, and they are assisted by many others. who furnish in formation from their own practice and observation. Such a Jour nal is the American Agricultur- alist, so named because started 30 years ago as a rural journal, but since greatly enlarged and i'm proved to suit the daily wants of every man, woman, and child in city, country, and village--for the farmer and gardener, the mcr- chan and mechanic, the profes- sional m..Sszindeed, all classes. It is packed ', of. useful infor- nation that every se. ought to have. Many single l.sssts and suggestions will repay more than a whole years cost of the paper. It's original engraved plans for buildings and improvements, with details of cost, etc, and common sense directions, are worth far more than majority of the cost ly works on architecture. Great care is exercised to have every line Tn the paper reliable. It's constant, persistent, and full ex- posture of a multitude of humbugs and swindles, are alone worth far more than its cost, and have say ed to it's readers and to the coun- try millions of dollars that would have gone into the hands of sharpers. The departments for Housekeepers and Children are very useful and entertaining. In short, the American Agriculturist is full of good things, and ought to be in every house in the land. The circulation is so large thal the publishers can supply it at lit- tie above the cost of printing pa per-or $l.60 a year, sent post paid; or four copies, $5.40. Take our advice and send your sub scrIption for 1877 (Vol. 36) to ORANGE JUDD COMPANY, 245 Broadway, New York. You will find it pay, and pay well.
 Or, we will send the American Agriculturist and the DEMOCRAT, one year to one address for $2.6o.
