Epictetus had a happy figure for things
like the play of the senses, or literary
form and finish, or argumentative inge-
nuity, in comparison with "the best and
master thing" for us, as he called it, the
concern hcw to live. Some people were
afraid of them, he said, or they disikcd
and undervalued them. Such people
were wrong; they were unthankful or
cowardly. But the things mig ght also be
overprized, and treated as final when
they are not. They bear to life the
relation which inns bear to home.
GAS if a man, journeying home,
and finding a nice inn OH the
road, and liking it, were to stay forever
at the inn! Man, thou hast forgotten
thine object; thy journey was not to this,
but through this. But this inn is tax
ing And how many other inns, too, are
taking, and how many fields and mead.

You have an object, which is this; to get

ing takes your fancy, and you forget
your home and want to make Jour abode
with them and to stay with them, or the
plea that they are taking. Who denies
that they are taking? but as places of
passage, as inns. And when | say this,
you suppose me to be attacking the
care for style, the care Cor argu-
ment. l am not; I attack the resting in
them, the not looking to the end which
is beyond them" Now, when we come
across poet like Theophile Gautier, We
have poet who has taken up his abode
at an inn, and never got further. There
may be inducements to this or that one
of us, at this or that moment, to find de-
light in him, to cleave to him; but, after
all, we do not change the truth about
him-we only stay ourselves in the inn
along with him. And when we come
across a poet like Wordsworth, who
| sings
"Of truth, of grandeur beauty love and hope,
| And melancholy fear subdugd by faith,
| OF blessed consolation in distress,
| OF moral strength and intellectual power,
| Ofjoy in widest commonalty spread"
then we have poet intent on the chest
and master thing" and who prosecutes
his Journey home. We say, for brevitys
sake, that he deals with life, because he
deals with that in which life really CON
sists. This is what Voltaire means to
praise in the English poets-this dealing
with what is really life. But always it is
the mark of the greatest poets that they
deal with it; and to say that the English
poets are remarkable for dealing with it,
is only another way of saying, what is
true, that in poetry the English genius
has especially shown its power.

Norfolk Virginian: Bristol is perhaps
the only city in the world with two
Mayors, two city governments, police,
ETC., and that is taxed in two States.
The line between Tennessee and Virginia
is in the center of Main street, and it
gives rise to many funny scenes, as, for
example, the runaway couple needs no
coach and four, but arm-in-arm step
across Main street and are welded. The
fugitive commits crime in Virginia,
goes to the pavement on the orher side
of the street and talks defiantly to the
officer on the opposite side, who has a
warrant for his arrest. A stumble or a
too bold disposition will sometimes, how.
ever, bring him to grief.

Having weighed out sufficient quanti- ty of tobacco to fill his pipe, he came into the Queens presence, and, as the wreaths of smoke curled up, he offered to bet that he could tell their weight. Elizabeth accepted the bet, and Sir Wal ter quietly finished his pipe; then hav- ing shaken out the ashes he weighed them, and subtracting the weight of the ashes from that of the tobacco originally put in the pipe, he found the weight of the smoke. Elizabeth paid the wager, and thus learned that matter is inde- structible,

Such changes are constantly going on in the operations of nature.

The Agency states that Git is very easy to account for the increase of l ,571 failures among 100000 business men within year in which the circumstances have been peculiarly influential in en- courag aging casualties of this character. These circumstances are stated at five in number, as follows 1878 is the fifth year of depression unparalleled in ex- tent, character and duration; the weather for the first quarter of the year was un- seasonable, and thus most unfavorable for sales and collections the discussions in and out of Congress as to financial matters, impaired confidence for the time being the notable decline in the value of staples the world over the ex- istence of the epidemic in the South i; and, finally, more influential than all others, was the abolition of the Bank
 rupt Law, and the lopg delay permitted to elapse before it's repeal.
 The review ssSs |: In view, therefore, of the peculiafities of the year under re- view, it is sdbmitted that an increase of failures<to the extent of only 1,571 in number, and 40 millions in liabilities, is eyeh much less than might have been Anticipated. It is significant that out of the six leading circumstances above enumerated as contributing to failures during the year, five no longer exist. In the room of these disturbing clements other favorable conditions are present, which ought, in the immediate future, to so much improve business as to make the decrease of failures in 1879 much more marked than the increase in 1878.
