consolation and compensation from the
knowledge that the flood which had driven
them from home was enriching their lands
and making them still more productive, they
bore their misfortunes with admirable seren-
ity. Prior 70 the war the Southern people
knew nothing of adversely. The most trivial
misfortunes were magnifed into irreparable
calamities. But our people have become
heroes who have heart for every fate. The
and their triumph over adversely and rapid
strides to returning sffiuenee and wealth, have
prepared them for any and every emergency.
Indeed, the Southern people have learned
philosophy in misfortune, and they bravely
meet and surmount all difficulties. In sad
cheerful disposition under all circumstances
is the real sunshine OF the heart; that in
misiortune's gloomiest hour it gives conr-
age and hope and robs the future of many OF
its darkest clouds. 1t is true there are and al
ways will be the cold hearted and nissan
thropic, who desrise ltvity and cheerfulness,
and who brood over misforiunes, exult in
making bad woTst, aud in mnglng bitter
ness with every cup Of joy. To This class
even the prosperity q neighbor Is a source
OF dissatisfaction and his cheerfulness in mis-
fortune a crime. They never describe a
character without giving it dark tins. They
cannot be happy thems, Ives, either in adj
versity or Prosperity, and soem TO be anxious
to make every one around tIirtn Unhappy.
This disagreeal l. insrsity cannot b.. cor
rected, but. it should he warning to those
who wish 10 glide through life by
a cheerfulness which sends sunshine on all
around Croakers are a nuisance to society.
They infuse disiTust and suspicion into
young minds which, but for their asperiiy or
maIeyolence would be full of conf ience and
faith. Some people are never happy unle.s
they are miserable or engaged in making
others miserable A smile is their abomina-
ton, and when they reluctantly bestow one
their cadaverous visage relapsss into its
natural scowl. On the other hand, the
philosophy Of cheerfulness shows the kind
hearted and good-natured and CONSTITUTES
and ministers OF Joy. All such
are always boon companions, for they dispel
gloom, chase away melancholy and laugh at
the trihing cares of life. They rejoice with
the prosperous, are happy with childhood
and youth, and even endeayor TO cheat
I'D age of its gravity, dependency,
and infrnlity; no malice, no unkind-
ness, no ill-wilI marks their conduct. Poverty
% them has few terrors. A quiet and con-
ented mind ard cheerful disposition is
he browning glory of wisdom, for they de-

A New York special to the Cincinnati
Commercial says: "The Mexican correspond
ent of the World gives US some Information
to-day which should interest the state de-
partment. What reply Secretary Freling-
huysen may have made TO Earl GranviIle's
latest dispatches concerning the Clayton
Bnlwer treaty the country has still to learn.
But one of the objects of Sir Henry Bulwer
in negotiating that treaty was TO strengthen
the hold of the British government on the
Central American territory known as British
Honduras For many years past the British
authorities at the Belize have kept up rela-
tions with the savages of Yucatan, to the
great annoyance and injury of that Mexican
State, and our correspondent now informs us
that these savages have been equippiug them
selves from the Belize for fresh attack on
the civilized portions of Gucaian, their object
being to establish an independent Indian
community, which, in due course of time,
will be grac:ously taken under the protection
of Great Britain, just as the realm of the
Mosqnito King George was taken long ego
to the detriment of Nicaragua"

Gamblers and Prostitutes.

The owners OF property rented to gamblers
for gaming purposes are promised a series OF
matinees before Judge Gary, beginning Mon
day. Ii the indictments OF the February
grand jury are carried out there will be
oceans of grief among large number of
respectable" property-owners. Shonld this
movement be followed by the indictment of
respectable" property-owners renting their
premises for tie purpose of prostitution, the
amount of grief will be quadrupled. And
at the same time the upper floors OF large
number of magnificent buildinga, in the
business heart of the city, would be rid OF a
class of dangerous tenants. 1t Is scarcely

A Real Family Tree.


Some distance up Otago Gorge, near Opo-
tiki. N. Y, on a portion of the estate
OF Thomas Black, an enormous puketea
tree, probably many hundred years
old, has been blown down, disclosing the as
funding fact that the hollow interior, ex-
tending from the roots to the first fork, about
forty -five feet, had been filed with human
bodies Since it fell these had burst out at
the butt of the tree in the form of a confused
heap of skeletons. A more extraordinary
sight than this monarch of The forest lying
prone and dischargiug perfect hecatomb OF
human skeletons can scarcely be conceived.
Some are nearly perfect, while others are
mixed up in 4 chaotic mass OF heads, hands,
feet and arms, indi: criminately. All the
Maoris here seem 10 have been quite una
ware OF this natural charneihouse, aud de-
clare that it must have happened long before
their own fathers time. Indeed, the appear
ance of the tree fully justified the suppose
ton that it must have been some hundreds
OF years since this novel family vault was
filiel with It's shastly occupants.

A Modern Witch.
HarriSbursr TnIacratb

In this age OF intelligence, and beneath
the shadow of half dozen schoolhouses and
churches, would hardly suppose that
there is superstition enough to lead people to
regard the sham mummery and clumsy antics
of an old woman as being those of Il witch
But such is the fact. There Is now living in
an alley running into Liberty street woman
who Processes TO be endowed with supernatu-
raj power, and whose conduct is as gross as
it is grotesque. She never enters her own
house without leaping backward and forward
over the sill of he r door, and when she goes
into a neighbours house she does the sIme
thing. She is constantly engaged in incanta-
ton, when not employed at her ordinary
work, and whispers ominotiSly of her power
to spread or stay disease. Absurd as the sc
things are, they have produced singular
effects on some of the neighbors. A woman
living next door TO the witch actually believes
that her children are more or less affsc;ed by
her infu nee, as they have had all the dis
eases common to Children While other chill
dren in the same neighborhood, whom the
witch likes, go unframed. These ridiculous
beliefs and fears are producing considerable
excitement, and the witch enj Iys her reputa-
ton. She mathematics and blesses such as
incur her disfavor or favor, and revels in the
fact nat she ia feared by the Ignorant
