Sensible Advice.

President Porter in one of his recent
talks to the students of Yale College,
Offered the following advice to them /:
"Young men, you are the architects
of your own fortunes rely on your
own strength of body and soul; take
fer your star self reliance. Inscribe
on your banner, Luck is fool, Pluck
is hero.' Don't take too much ad-
vice, keep the helm and steer your
own ship and remember that the art
of commanding is to take a fair share
of the work. Think well of yourself.
Strike out. Assume your own position.
Put potatoes in a cart, go over rough
road, and the small ones go to the bot
tom. Rise above the envious and the
jealous. Fire above the mark you ex-
pect to hit. Energy, invincible deter
mination, with a right motive, are the
levers that move the world. Don't
swear. Don't deceive. Don't read
novels. Don't marry until you can
support wife. Be civil. Read the
papers. Advertise your business
Make money and do good with it
Love your God aud fellow men. Love
virtue and truth, Love your country
obey its laws"

on.Morrison r. w ate
Chief Justice of the United
States.

Morrison r. Waite presents sub
ject for a more extended biography
than our space will permit. Fulsome
eulogy would be unworthy the char
acter and Office of the Chief-Justice.
On the other hand the record of such
q life belongs to the public he has
served and is still serving with so much
ability.
In the quiet old rural town of Lyme,
Connecticut, still stands the house
where Morrison Renwick Waite was
born, November 90, 1916. Mr.. Waite
entered Yale College at the age of sew
enteen and graduated with honor in
1897 in class which included VIM.
NJ Evarts, Edward Pierrepont, Prof.
Silliman and others who have become
distinguished men. He then began
the study of law in his fathers office
in Lyme, but finished his studies in
the office of Samuel M. Young, then
prominent attorney in Maumee City,
Ohio. In 1889 his preceptor took him
into partnership, and in 1850 the firm
of Young & Waite removed to Toledo,
Ohio, and established large and sue
cessful practice. A few years after,
Mr.. Waite's younger brother was ad
mitted to the bar and a partnership
was formed consisting of the two
brothers, which continued up to the
time of the formers appointment to
his present high position by President
Grant. January 20, 1874.
Politically Mr.. Waite is Republi-
can, but he was always too deeply en-
gagged in his profession to become much
of partisan or party leader, To all the
war measures of the government he
gave earnest and effective support. In
l849 Mr.. Waite was.elected to the Ohio
Legislature as a Whig, In 1862 he
was reluctantly candidate for Con
gress, but was defeated by Edwin M
Phelps. Thereafter other nominations
and appointments were rendered him
but he refused to accept any of them
Mr.. Waite was a conspicuous char
acter in the great Geneva Tribunal as
one of the United States counsel and
he performed his arduous task to his
great credit and to the entire satisfac
tion of his government. He thereafter
returned to Toledo and resumed his
practice, and in 1873 was chosen pres
ident of the Ohio State Constitutions
Convention. Upon the death of Chic
Justice Chase there was intense inter
est throughout the United States te
know who would be his successor. AT
ter the successive nominations of Hon
Geo. III. Williams and Hon. Calel
Gushing and the withdrawal of theiI
names, Pre- ssident Grant then selected
Mr.. Waite and his appointment was
confirmed by a unanimous vote in the
Senate, 1t is the glory and security
of nation to have its highest place o
Justice filled by men, who, like Chic
! iJustice Waite add to the loftiest Officia
character that purity of life, urbanity
of manners. and generous benificence
which distinguish him.

Evening Post the following in regard
to relic recently in the possession of
J. G. Harmon, Esq, of this place,
mention of which was made in our
columns some weeks since;
AN INTERESTING REL1c-THEO ORIG.
INAL COMMUNION CUP USED BY THE
WEST SUEFIELD CONGREGATIONAL
CHURCH.-Mr. Fl. 8. Sheldon of Suf-
field, formerly Representative from
that town in the legislature. has re-
Gently come into possession of the
original communion cup used by the
West Sufield Congregational Church.
It was used for sacramental purposes
for upwards of fifty years, and is a
relic of exceptional interest to the
church and society at West Sutfield.
The society for better religious and
school privileges was Incorporated by
the Massachusetts, general court, Jam
uary, 1740. The church was organized,
or embodied, November 10, 1743. John
Graham, Jr., father of Sylvester Gra-
ham, the distinguished vegetarian, its
first settled minister, was ordained and
installed October %, l746, and admin
istered his first sacrament December Z
following. John Harmon was the first
deacon and the possessor of the cup
which Mr.. Sheldon has recently recov-
cred, serving until his death, April %,
1856. The office with the cup was
transmitted to his son, Elias Harmon,
who served until his death, January
81, 1893. The children of Deacon Eli
rs Harmon soon after migrated to Ohio,
and his widow, Eunice, followed in
| H.. I H.,
venier of her New England home,
which she never revisited. She died
at Mantua, O., April 10, 1S4O, in the
93d year of her age. The cup passed
to her youngest son, John Harmon,
who died August %, 1874 aged S4 years.
The cup was obtained from his widow
by Julian G. Harmon of Isavenna, a
great-great-grandson of Deacon John
Harmon, and was by him presented to
Mr.. Sheldon January 1854; restoring
il TO the locality of its ministratiOn lbs
years ago.
bacon "John Harmon" was the son
of Nathaniel Harmon, the Suffield pi.
Oneer, himself first deacon of the
first Suffield church. Deacon Elias
, son of Deacon John Harmon, was the
village schoolmaster, West parish, fol
many years. Lieutenant Samuel Har

chosen March z, 1897. Deacon Sam
Harmon died February q, 1872; hi:

serving until his death in 1855.
Mr.. Sheldon has the manuscript ser
mon, delivered by Rev. John Graham
Jr, on the occasion of the first com
munion, when the cup now in hi
possession was used, December Z, l746
and is having it bound at the Case

, a relic, the cup is of very great value
though its intrinsic value is compare

and it will be restored to the church a

DURING his Southern visit Simon
Cameron did not see any evidences of
squalid poverty among the colored
people. He says that colored children
are to be seen walking along the road
to school, with clean faces. neat clothes,
and load of books under their arms,
and the colored men no longer move
about with hanged heads, bat seem to
feel their independence.

On the 30th of June last there was
in the U. b. Treasury $346. .OS7, ,4S7 cash,
and an estimated surplus revenue the
current year of $50 1874, ,695, after allow
ing SAG, 269, ,758 to the sinking fund.
This Ia the amOuntsof surplus in the
Treasury even under the extravagant
and profigate administration Of the
Republican party, and the managers
of that party insist that the squeezing
process shall continue, and from fifty
to an hundred millions of dollars be
added annually to this vast sum to lie
idle in the government Golfers, drawn
from the pockets of the people merely
for the advantage of the favored mon
opolies which gather four or five times
more from the grinding and oppressive
taxation than goes into the vaults of
the treasury. Briefly stated, the Re-
publicans are opposed to any decrease
in the taxes imposed upon the people,
while the Democrats are in favor of
levying only such an amount of taxes
on the people as shall be sufficient for
the wants Of the government econom-
ically administered, holding that the
amount is SO large that it will afford
all the encouragement that our :" in
FAINT industries" can reasonably OF
rightfully demand, and that Congress,
in levying tariff duties, has no right to
do SO for any other purpose than that
of obtain ing revenue for the support
of the government.

From the Homo of Burns.

We are permitted to make the follow
ing extract from letter written from
Dumfries, Scotland. to J. C. Catlin,
Esq, of this village:
This whole country side, as you
guess, is full of Burns, if I may use the
expression. His bones are beneath the
mausoleum in st. Michaels auld kirk.

Jean. A fine statue was erected in
Dumfries, a couple of years ago in his
honor. It was calculated there would
be about 10000 people present at the
ceremony of unwilling, which was
performed by young Lord Roseberry.
Burns spent great portion of his
sadly chequered life in and around
Dumfries. A good many of his man.
uscripts, some of the rare, early edi-
tions of his works, and some ofhis per-
sonal effects, are deposited in the OBJ
servatory Museum here, of which

my power to send you any real, origin
al relic of Burns, but I will have the
greatest pleasure in sending you few
photographs, or something of that
sort. Many thousands of tourists are
here every. year, and "relics'' bring
fabulous sums, and Qet me whisper it
gently more especially from Ameri-
cans and Canadians. There is stand

resides in the house at the Brow Well,
where the poet fingered through his

The New York World publishes re-

headway, and the indications are that
he will capture the nomination.
- AN Irishman hit the political nail
on the heud when he said of the Re-
publicans, that they were for protec-
tion before the election, and for starv-
alton afterward."
The Republicans of Cleveland cap
tured the beer and whisky vote at the
late election, but their papers will keep
right on stigmatizinng the Democracy
as the whisky party, all the same.
The Indiana Democrats did good
work at their election on the 7th inst,
carrying Indianapolis and most OF the
important cities and towns of the
State, making large gains. There can
be little doubt that the Hoosier State
will be enrolled in the Democratic
column in November. a.@c>

II will be remembered that Samuel
J. Tilden was sued in 1876 for alleged
unpaid income taxes, and that after
years of continuance, the record on
the docket was a nolle. The other day
was witnessed the judicial refutation
of another slander, concocted during
the canvass of 1876. The Chicago &
Alton Railroad had sued Mr.. Tilden to
recover some bonds retained by him
and his co-trustees as security for fees
earned in adjusting matters for this
road. The characterization of railroad
wrecker ascribed to Mr.. Tilden is well
remembered. The final decree of this
suit, just entered by Judge Drummond
of Chicago, not only finds for Mr..
Tilden in the full amount of these
bonds, but further adjudges that the
railroad within ten days pay So, 200 to
complete the balance due. Thus does
time serve to show up the downright
hypocricy and wickedness of the Re
publican leaders
