BYRON: Adversity is the first path to
truth.
SHAKESPEARE: Grabbed age and youth
cannot live together.
DANIEL WEBSTER: The farmers are the
founders of civilization.
JOHNSON: Age is rarely despised but
when it is contemplate.
BYRON: You have greatly ventured, but
all must do so who would greatly win.
JOHNSON: Advice is seldom welcome.
Those who need it most like it least.
GOETHE: Age makes Us not childish as
some say; it makes US still true children.
CARO-: Old age has deformities enough
of its own; do not add to it the deformity
of vice.
Cotton: He who has never known ad-
versity is but half acquainted with others,
or with himself.
HANNAH MORE: Life is short day; but
it is working day. Activity may lead to
evil, but inactivity cannot be led to good.
SInMs: The temperate are the most truly
luxurious. By abstaining from most
things, it is surprising how many things
we enjoy.
BLAIR. Affectation is certain deformity;
by forming themselves on fantastic mod
els, the young begin with being ridiculous,

BocEN: Ambition is like choler, which
is humor that maketh men active, earn
est, full of alacrity and stirring, if it be not
stopped, but if it be stopped, and cannot
have its way, it becometh frey, and
thereby malign and venemous.
COTTON: The only things in which we
can be said to have any property are our
actions. Our thoughts may be bad, yet
produce no poison; they may be good yet
produce no fruit. Our riches may be
taken away by misfortune; our reputation
by malice; our spirits by calamity; our
health by disease; our friends by death.
But our actions must follow US beyond the
grave; with respect to them, we cannot say
we shall carry nothing with us when we
die, neither that we shall go naked out of
the world.

You've gentlemen who have just taken
their collegilte, graduating sheepskins,
consider themselves adequate to any posi-
tion-at least, some, or many of them do.
They seek literary editorships, or journal
istic positions. Il is estimated that there
at least thousand young men that this
very summer are loose from academic
shades, who feel that they have call, not
to preach, but for journalistic work and
fame. They mostly find the doors to jour
nalism closed. They do not realize that
they are looked upon as callow adven-
turers, as lacking the experience required
by sturdy journalism; the ubiquito out
look; the ready writing facility, the power
Of compact condensation, the faculty of
saying much in few words. These aspi-
rants, many of them, look upon journa-
lism as a genteel, easy, iy-handed, kid
gloved, aesthetic, reputable employment,
where gilt-edge position may be easily
enjoyed and enviable fame required. No
more erroneous idea can be indulged than
this. Journalism, however fair-seeming it
may appear to superficial observers, is
really, to command success life of toll, of
drudgery, requiring capacity, facility, cul-
tured intellect, great fund of general in
formation, sleepless vigilance, logical abil-
ity and good taste, sound judgment and
the power of incisive, rapid expression.
As the great Demosthean axiom for an Or
ator was first, action; second, action; and
third, action; SO the tripiple qualification
for a successful journalist is work, work,
work! No lacadaisical, fowery path
leads to the high realms of journalistic op-
portunity. A plain spoken writer dis
cussing this subject vigorously and truly
says: "There is no room for men in Jour
nalism to-day, but there is plenty of room
for 1COyk." There is a whole essay in a

true way is to send in his written articles

OyERrAxED mental powers result oftener
in disaster and death than is generally,
or publicly supposed. What is ''softening
of the brain," about which we hear SO
much at the present day? Forty or fifty
years ago, such a disease was scarcely
known, but insanity was, of which this new
cC1ned phrase, is species. The so called
softening OF the brain results no doubt
from overtaxed mental powers, or even
from a slothful, sluggish, or inactive brain.
A proper degree of activity is needful to
preserve in heaithful activity the springs of
lie. Better wear out than to rust out,'

1T is curious fact that so firm in tex

England note that burning alone can
hardly destroy it. The authorities have in
a little glazed frame the remnants of a
note which was in the great fire of Chica-
&c. Though completely charred and
black the paper still holds together, and
the printing of the note is said to be cuff
ciently legible TO establish its genuineness
and to warrant its being cashed. There
are some other notes at the bank which
were cashed after having gone down with
the ''Earydice" a few years ago, aud re-
duced to little better than pulp. Indeed
the scraps and fragments which sometimes
come into the bank to be cashed have a
