THE GOOD MAN.


SEVENTEENTH CENTURY,
How happy is he born and taught,
That serveth not another's will;
Whose armour is his honest thought,
Aud simple truth his utmost shield
Whose passions not his masters are;
Whose soul IL still prepared for death,
United unto the worldly care
of public fame, or private breath.
Who enyes none that chance doth raise,
Or vice; who never understood
How deepest wounds are given by praises
Nor rules OF stale, but rules of good.
Who hath his lips from rumors freed,
Whose conscience is his strong retreat
Whose state can neither ilatterera feed,
Nor ruin make oppressors great;
Who God doth late and early pray,
More OF his grace than gifts to lend;
And entertains the harmless day
With II religious book or friend. ..
This man is freed from servile bands,
OF hope TO rise, or fear to fall;
Lord of himself, though not of lands;
And having nothing, yet hath all.

mrs. Jane IGdderzook.

Ntht NlAs.lSl NtNs'
A gentleman from Avondale called at
this office this morning and stated that
Mrs. Jane Undertook, who is making that
place her home, is in quite destitute
circumstances the little revenue she re-
oeiyes from her wax and feather riower
works being insufficient to provide her
with the actual necessarins of life. In
view of this fact, the gentleman above re-
ferred to, suggests that subscribers to her
home fund in the Mrs. Arden claim case,
turn over their subscriptionsto her for the
purpose of giving her assistance she now
very much needs. We second the sugges.
ton, and ask those who have not yet with.
drawn their subscriptions, in behalf of her
retaining her home property, to let us
hear from them at once. She was Obliged
to incur an expense of over $40 in defend.
ing her case in the recent courts, and this
has reduced her little fund SO much as tc
place her in needy circumstances.
