Wise Words.

No pleasure is comparable to the
standing upon the vantage ground
of truth.
Love is never lost; if not recipro-
Gated, it will flow back and soften
and purify the heart.
Few persons have sufficient wis
dom to prefer censure, which is
useful to them, to praise which de-
ccives them.
There never appear more thaii
FIVE or six men of genus in an age,
but if they were united the world
could not stand before them.
All Impotence Of monotony, all
WEAKNESS OF best things even, are
but signs Of eternity Of our nature,
the broken human fashions Of the
divine everlaStingness.
The best rules to form fora young
man are to talk little. to hear much
to reflect alone on What has passed
in company, to distrust ones own
opinions, aud value others that de-
serve it.
The world could not exist were it
not simple. This ground has been
titled a thousand years, yet its pow
ers remain ever the same; a little
sun, and each spring it grows green
again.
The leadership is one thing and
dominancy another. Ii is well, if
we have not the qualities of leader
ship, to be willing to be led; but to
have our minds dominated and con
troIled is another and entirely diff
terent thing. The important lessen
to impart to children is that of sound
independent thought. And, if it
lead to strong mindedness-that is,
tenacity of opinion-it will be we'll.
provided opinions be carefully and
thoughtfully formed.

Worth While.

Prince Albert Victor, the pros
pective heir to the throne Of Eng
land, made his maiden speech the
other day, to an assembly of lads of
his OVID age. "Wllatevcr is worth
doing at all is worth doing accu-
rately, :" he said; "whctheryou sharp
ell a pencil or black your boots, do
it thoroughly and we'll"
Al.Yyoangslad .Mtlo. was az pupilsat
Rugby School was noted for bis bad
penmansbip. When his teachers
demonstrated, he replied, "Many
men Of genius have written worse
scrawls than | do. 1t is not worth
while to worry about so trivial a
fault Ten years later, this lad was
an officer Ill the English army, do
ing service in the Crlmean wlr.4An
order he copied for transmission
was so illcgible that it was given
incorrectly to the troops, and the
result was the loss of great many
brave men.
A few years ago, the keeper Of Il
life saving station on the Atlantic
coast found that his supply OF pow.
der mad given out. The nearest
village was two or three miles DIS
tant, and the weather inclement.
He concluded that lis it twas not
worth willie to go SO far expressly
for such ii tri1e &" he would wait for
Il few days before sending for a
supply. That night vessel was
wrecked within sight of the sta
ton. A line could have been Civ
ell to the crew if he had been able
to use the mortar, but he had no
powder. He saw the drowning
men perish one by one III his sight,
knowing that he alone was to blame
a few days aiterwarc he was dis
missed from the service.
The experience OF every man will
suggest similar instances that con-
firm the truth Of the Young princes
advice to tile lads OF his own age.
Whatever is right to do should be
done with our best care, strength
and laithlulness of purpose. We
have no scales by which we can
weigh our duties or determine their
relative Importance in Gods eyes.
That which seems a tritle to us
may be the secret spring which
shall move the issues Of life and
death.-Youth's Companion.

Ivy on the Walls Of Houses.

Land and Water has done a use
full service in pointing out the fall
lacy OF the widespread belief that
ivy trained against the walls OF Il
dwelling house is productive Of
damp walls and general unhealthi-
ness. The very opposite Of this is
really the case. II any one will
carefully examine an ivy-clad wall
after a shower of rain, he will no.
tice that while the overlapping
leaves have conducted the water
from point to point until it has
reached the ground, the wall be
meath is perfectly dry and dusty
More than this, the thirsty shoots
which force their way into every
creyice OF the structure which will
afford a firm hold, act like suckers,
in drawing out any particles OF
moisture for their own nourishment.
The Ivy, in fact, acts like q great
coat, keeping the houses from wet,
and warm into the bargain. One
more virtue it has, in giving to the
ugliest structurean evergreen beau.

The Weaker Sex.

An English paper, whose editor
is undoubtedly married man, con.
tains the following essay on women:
81 believe there is more pepper,
more saltpeter, more tartar, more
aqua fOrtis, and more pluck in w0-
man nature than any other nature
extant. All these, however, lie
dormant in thin sack, woven Of
modesty, timidity, coynesss and
gentleness. Once shake them up.

thunder. :
Woman flesh is thought by some
to be confcction, a composition
of sugar and molasses, or some
other saccharine matter. Grant
that it is all sweetness; yet [ wonld
have you to know when the acid Of
anger, insult, or i'll nature comes in
contact with it, such an eiferveS.
cence occurs as one never saw eX-

powders or soda water.
Women, when put out Of tune,
are like summer storms. AT first
they are cloudy-male no noise,
but their thinking machines are
busy in motion. Then comes thund.
er! and the lightning that flashes
from their eyes is enough to appall
the stouteSt of hearts. You fall back
in wonderment, if not perfectly
amazed. Unwilling to retreat fuItl-
er; and not having chance or the
courage to slip in a pititul "boo!"
you stand and take it like Il hitched
horse in hail storm.
When the wrath Of the feminine
has nearly expired, You pluck up
courage and are down on her with
argument, reasoning and reprimand
but is all this going to make her
turn tail? Not Il bit of it. Having
wasted her thunder and lightning,
she begins to rain; she knows what

So you see, my friends, that the
women are bound to get the better
Of us. In them you hold the wild
cat, the lamb, and dove. If they
can accomplish nothing by letting
loose theiruntamed feline propensi-
ties, they give the juvenile sheep
a trial; and if that fails they try
the loving dove. With one or the
other they are sure to effect their
purpose.

Occupations of the People.

Perhaps the most important sig
nificant information presented by
General Francis A. Walker, super
intendent of the census of 1880, is
what he says about the occupations
of the people of the United States.
The census gives the number of
persons engaged in gainful occupa
tions as 17,392,O00, or 47.31 per
cent. of total persons over IL years
old. These were engaged i'll the
four chief lines of occupations as
follows; Agriculture, 7,G7O,OOO; pro-
feSsional and personal services, A..
$4,000; trade and transportation,
100000; manufacturing, mechani
calard mining industries, 1881, 900.
In 1870 the number engaged in
occupations was 12,G05,OOO. OF
those in 1850 2,647,OO0 were wo
men. The number Of persons over
ten years of age is 36, 761,000 10,
1863, 900 unaccounted for. The lat.
ter number is about equal to the
number attending school or physic
ally incapable Of labor.
The census shows an increase
over 1870 of about thirty per cent.
in population, but an increase Of
thirty.nine per cent. in the num-
Der engaged in occupations. This
increase in number engaged in oc
equations over the gain in popula
ton is accounted for by the growth
of the factory system.
The lowest proportion of popula.
ton engaged in occupation is in
West Virginia and Utah, namely,
twenty.tight per pent., and the
highest in Montana, fifty-seven per
cent. The great grain States keep
down the proportion Of bread viii
ners in their boundaries. The per-
centage in the cotton growing
States is higher, owing to the wo-
men and children going to the
fields; in the manufacturing States
the percentage is higher still, ow
ing to the employment Of women
and children III factories, while in
the mining States it is highest OF
all.
Agriculture remains the great
OcQ alton of the country. nearly
OH, If Of all the laborers being
eng 4 in that employment. The
MIN population has increased
from 152.OOO in 1870 $4,000 in
1880. OF all in occupation, 23.4
per cent. are in professional and
personal service, which includes
from the lawyer and judge to the
barber and common drudge. There
are 1,SSO,OO0 under the head OF
common laborer. The number OF
clergymen in 1880 was $4,000
against $4,000 in 1870; the number
of lawyers $4,000 in 1880, 10000 in
1870; the number of physicians in'
creased during the Qeca0e from
G2,OO0 to $4,000. In 1880 there
were 1880 actors and 1900 journ
alists in the country.
The number of domestic ,rvants
is 1,O76;OOO an increase of only ten
per cent. in the decade, although
the population gained thirty pei
cent. In 1870 there was one ser
vaut to every 7.76 families; in 1881
one servant to 9.24 families. Vlr
ginia, Maryland and Delaware
lead all the States in the largest
population ofservants. Next comes
the States north Of them, although
domestic service has decreased

in New York City, and who served in the
Army OF the Potomac under Gen. Grant,
called upon lis old commander yesterday and
room, where he was met at the door by Gen.

reporter, after tie call, that the sick man
seemed much better tnau he had expected.
His face is round but not bloated and he
walks with less trouble than when Gen.
Keifer saw hiAsfkst Gen. Keifer said fur
ther: "He seemed very cheerful, however,
and conversed rapidly, during my brief stay,
on great many topics. He spoke particularly
OF his large mail, which averages about one
hundred letters day. He seems to have kept
up with his correspondence very thoroughly,
and has been apparently greatly delighted
with it. He spoke OF the letters OF sympathy
he had received. and especially OF those from
various military organizations. Some OF
these seemed to have been drawn up more OF
less roughly, perhaps, as compared with
others ofa more official character, but the
General said that the plaiu, honest, heartfelt
messages from the people went slraighter to
his heart and gave him more real comfort
than all the others combined. The heart OF
the old soldier was touched by them, and
he was evidently cherishing them all very
dearly"

A FIVE minutes to one o'clock this after
noon one of the lady clerks 10 Kinnane, Wren
Co.'S dry goods store, in the Commercial
building, Limestone street, discovered smoke
issuing from the stairway leading to the eel
lar. An alarm was telephoned the Central
engine house from which box Is was keyed
IN, bringing out the entire department, water
being thrown in Just three minutes from
the time the telephone alarm was
given. In fifteen minutes the out-tap
was sounded. The fire was in a
lot of paper rubbish and sweepngs at foot OF
the stairway in the cellar and extended TO
some underwear on shelves near by. 1t seems
to bave been caused by the droppings and
breaking of a lamp suspended over the stair
way to light the passage. The damage will
not be heavy; $50 perhaps, and is as much
from water as FIRE. The store above was filed
with smoke for a few moments, which poured
out into the street giving the appearance of
bad fire.
