To Make a Home Happy.

Nature is industrious in adorning her
dominions; and man, to whom this
beauty is addressed, should feel and
obey the lesson. Let him, too, be in
dustrious in adorning his domain-in
making his home, the dwelling of his
wife and children, not only convenient
and comfortable, but pleasant Let him
as far as circumstances will admit, be in
dustrious in surrounding it with pleasant
objects-in decorating it, within and
without, with things that tend to make
it agreeable and attractive. Let industry
make home the abode of neatness and
order-a place which brings satisfaction
to every inmate, and which in absence
draws back the heart by the fond associ-
atipps Of comfort and content. Let this
be done, and this sacred spot will be-
come more surely the scene of cheerful
ness and peace. Ye parents, who you'd
have your children happy, be indus
trlous to bring them up in the midst of a
pleasant, cheerful, and happy home.
Waste not your time in accommodating
wealth for them but plant in their minds
and souls, IN the way proposed, the seeds
of virtue and prosperity.
Teach them also that true benevolence
inspires with the love of justice, and
prompts him in whose bosom it glows,
neither to oppress the weak, to impose
on the ignorant, nor to oVerreaeh the un-
wary but to give every man his due.
and with steady and undertaking step to
walk in the hallowed path of equity,
Deceit and dissimulation, fraud and false
hood, are far from the humble Worship
per of God; integrity is enthroned in
his heart, truth rests on his lips, and an
enlightened sense of duty regulates the
whole Of his conduct. He faithfully
performs every promise, and fulfls
every engagement, Others respect and
trust his word, because he respects and
holds it sacred himself. His life Is char
acterized by the simplicity of truth, and
the dignity of virtue and in dealing
with him, they who have an oppor-
tunity of knowing his character place
unbounded confidence in his justice and
faithfulness,

A COOP MANS WIsH.-I freely confess
to you that would rather, when 1 am
laid down in the grave, some one in his
manhood stand over me and say-'gTher
lies one who was a real friend 10 me
and privately warned me of the dangers
of the young. No one knew it, but he
aided me in the time of need. owe
what am to him." Or 1 would rather
have some widow, with choking utter
apce, telling her children-"There is your
friend and mine. He visited me in nv
affliction, and fou;1 you, my son, en-
ployer, and you, my daughter, happy
home in a virtuous family" 1 say, 1
would rather that such person should
stand at my grave, than to have erected
over it the most beautiful sculptured
monument of Partisan or italian marble.
The hearts broken utterance of refec-
tions of past kindness, and the tears of
grateful memory shed upon the grave,
are more valuable, In my estimation than
the most costly cenotaph ever reared.

THE BRDE.-I know of no sight more
charming and touching than that of
young and tender bride in her robes of
virgin white, led up trembling to the
altar. When I thus behold lovely girl
in that tenderness of her years forsake
the house of her father and the home of
her childhood-and with the implicit
confidence and the selfabandonment
which belong to women, giving up all
the world for the man of her choice :;
when I hear her in the good old Ian
guage of the ritual, yielding herself to
him 'for better or worse, for richer or
poorer, in sickness and in health, to love,
honor and obey, till death us do part"
it brings to mind the beautiful and affec-
ting devotion of Ruth-"Whither thou
goest will go, and where thou lodgest 1
will lodge-thy people shall be my peo-
pie, and thyuGod my God" ."-Irving.

On the old school book, In Its dusty nook,
with fearful eye gaze;
Come down, Old friend, for an hour well spend,
IN talking Of bygone days.
I gaze once more, as in days of yore,
On the task that yexed my brain
Tho lesson done and victory won,
And feel I'm child again.
And seem to stand with the youthful band,
In the old house on the green
hear the fun ere the school begun.
And Join IN the giadsome scene.
Il take my place with sober face,
Ger the we'll carved desk bend,
And hourly pore DER the antique lore
OF thy wonderful page, Old friend
Then our cares were few and our friends were true,
And our YTiefs were rare and light;
The world was naught $50 we fondly thoughtl
But region Of pure delight.
But time hath sped, and our path has led
Through the dark and fearful scene;
And passed away are the good and gay
Like the old house on the green.
But wen sing no more Of the days Of yore
For the tear drop dims the eye
Sleep on, old book, in the dusty nook,
As in years that have glided BY
No guilt We trace In thy honest face,
But mine OF gold within.
Enriched the youth, as they sought for truth,
In the old house on the green.

SAN Francisco LIFE AS PICTURED IN
A FRENCH NovEL-M Gustave Claud-
ms novel, Les Caprices de Diomede, has
reached third edition The hero stops
at hotel on Thirty fourth avenue, New
York, in which city he attends session
of the Congress, where the honorable
gentlemen wear their hats and put up
their feet higher than their heads. TAX
ing the Grand Pacific railroad, he sets
out for San Francisco, passing the great
cities of Pittsburg, Kansas City, Dem
yer, etc. At Frisco he risked some
pounds sterling at trente ct quarante
and gained 20,900 francs in less than
quarter of an hour. The gamblers were
betting ingots and nuggets of gold,
pearls, sapphires and diamonds, which
they had just dug up in the mines. An
immense crowd proceed to the Union
Park to hear preacher, the Rev. Faith
er Samuel, whose services We're announc-
ed in the Courier de San Francisco. It
seems that in the United States there
are pastors In every town, who are sub
jected to the competition Of preachers
who roam about and stay in one place as
long as they can draw congregations.
The Rev. Father Samuel took as his text
Genesis iii. l6, and preached about the
unscripturalness Of chloroform in obstet-
RIGS, till the audience broke up into two
fierce factions. The Rev. Father Sam
uel was not success, for Diomede saw
him asking for his bill that evening and
setting out for Chicago Desiring to be-
come acquainted with the social aristoc-
racy of San Francisco, Diomede called
on Sir Becquet, banker, who introduc-
ed him, SO that he became the hero of
the salons. In San Francisco the Prot
estants read the Bible till noon, and
tRen look at the ceiling, the Irish Cath
olics put on white ties and dress coats
and go to mass, after which they assem-
bic in groups and play for four or five
hours upon their haImonicas and accor
deons, of which some $4,000 to 10000
are annually imported from Paris and
Menheim The dogs, accustomed to the
frightful music, do not howl. The Nor
mons all play the piano, and, as soon as
their numbers have sufficiently increased
the Government intends to disperse
them in colonies to cultivate the waste
lands of the territories.

The Ex-Empress Eugenie.
Now Orleans picavuns Paris letter.

I Now Orleans Pcavune Paris letter.
I have seen a letter from Ems, which
gives this description Of the ex- Empress:
81 have Just seen the ex-Empress at
Ems. It is hard to understand how she
could have selected these springs. The
beautiful village Ems is, as it were, the
funeral monument of the Bonaparte dy-
nasty She is accompanied by Duchess
de Mouchy and Marquis de Piennes.
She is clad in deep mourning. Hazard
has cruel ironies. In German spas each
house has it's sign. The home of the
ex-Empress bears over its door L'Elysee
the same name as the palace where
the future Emperor wooed the future
Empress. When she reached Ems and
came out of the railway station the
throng, which contained people of all
nations, spontaneously took off their
hats do not believe the Empress was
ever saluted with greater Difference and
deeper sympathy. Time, care, sorrows
and exiles have done their work. Years
ago | saw on the beach at Trouyille with
one of those long canes which she had
put in fashion, and which gave to the la
dies of those days SO fast look. She
still carries a cane, but it is not the light
bamboo of old times; she now carries a
stout walking-stick, mans walking
stick, on which she leans as she walks
along. / could not, when / saw her,
help thinking of the broken, violence
SCARED walls of the Tuileries- majestic
though in ruins. The day the Countess
de Pierrefonds (as the Empress now
styles herself) reached Ems Prince
George of Prussia called on her. He
repeated his visit the next day, and dur
ing her whole stay at Ems he was most
attentive to her. He took care that she
should have at Ems something like her
old grandeur He made the authorities
and public functionaries show her a
thousand courtesies. The Postmaster
ordered letter-ca,rier to attend to her
alone, and to carry all letters for her the
instant the mails were opened The tel
egraph master did the same thing. The
visitors, seeing these honors paid her,
became still more deferential. When
ever she walked precedence was given
her, and she seemed very much touched
| by this courtesy. l saw again upon her
lips the enacting smile of happy days.

of these machines it is not necessary for
us to enlarge. for the reason that their

is for the "best exhibit at the Oregon

another for "best machine for family

many other medals, including an award

THE WIFE-It needs no guilt to
break husbands heart. The absence of
content, the mutterings of spleen, the
untidy dress and eheerless home, the for
bidden scowl and deserted hearth, these,
and other nameless neglects, without
crime among them, have narrowed to the
quick the hearts core of many a man,
and planted there, beyond the reach of
cure, the germ of dark despair. o may
woman, before that sight arrives, dwell
on the recolleetions of her youth, and
cherishing the. dear idea of that tuneful
time, awaken and keep alive the prom
Use she so kindly gave. And though she
may be the injured, not the injuring one
the forgotten, and not the forgetting
wife-a happy allusion to the hour of
peaceful love-a kindly welcome to a
comfortable home-a smile of love to
Danish hostile words-a kiss of peace to
to pardon all the past, and the hardest
heart that was ever locked within the
breast of selfish man will soften to her
charms, and bid her live, as she had
hoped, her years of matchless bliss, loved,
loving and content-the source of com.
fort and the spring of Joy.

easily have sustained himself without the aid

Tilden and Nichols appeared to be elected on
the face of the returns; that the Republicans
thereupon figured up to ascertain how many
votes must be thrown out to elect Packard,
and having settled that matter, they then
discovered they would have to throw out 1872
votes more to elect the Hayes electors. All
