Pearls OF Thought.

He who seeks only for applause from
without has all his happiness in anoth-
er's keeping. Ia
( If thou art wise thou knowest thine
own ignorance, and thou art ignorant if
thou knowest not myself.
The wealth of man is the number of
things which he loves and blessss,
which he is loved and blessed by.
Vice incapacitates man from all
public duty; it wi hers the power of
his understanding, and makes his mind
paralyt.c.
1t is not the quantity of meat, but
the cheerfulness of the guests, which
makes the feast. Where there is no
peace there can be no feast.
Fame is an undertaken who pays but
little attention to the living, but bediz-
ems the dead, furnishes out their funer-
ais and follows them to the grave.
Readers who are in the flower of their
youth should labor at those accomplish
ments which may set off their persons
when their bloom is gone, and to lay in
timely provisions for manhood and old
age.
Every man goes into the future world
with character on his hands. He will
have it there on his hands, and must do
something with it. He ought to be
careful about what he is to take with
him inseparably into eternity.

Here Is pleasant recipe, which can
be commended TO wives whose hus-
bands cross the sea without them.
On the first night out. just as my
vis-arvis at table was sitting down to
dinner in the beautiful sale On of the
City OF New York, q steward stepped
up to him and handed him letter,
saying, with the Captains compli-
ments, sir"
Every night this performance was
repeated. Sometimes the Captain
himself presented the letter. 1t was
mysterious and interesting. The gen.
tleman who received the letter seemed
to be greatly astonished when IL came
to him on the first occasion, but after
ward he merely showed signs of enjoy
ment in reading it's contents. He was
very delightful man and great fay-
orite at our table. but though every
body was dying to know where the
letter came from nobody had enough
impudence to ask him. asai a6
But on the day before we reached
New York / happened to be standing
on the companion way with this gen.
tleman, when the Captain presented
the letter, and the former said, as he
tore open the envelope, "Queer idea OF
my wife, isn't it She sent the Cap

Dispatches from Zanzibar fully confirm

Africa. and add the following details:
The Germans and other Europeans who fed
from Bagamoyo TO the camp OF the German
East African Company are closely besieged by
5000 natives under Bushiri, the chief, who led
the first attack. The German man. of war,
which opened fire on the town as soon as 1t fell
inlo possession of the natives, did great damage.
The loss Of life well as Of property was very
heavy. The bombardment failed to dislodge
the enemy, who hold the ruins and prevent
parties from landing TO rescue the be-
sieged whites, who are in great danger. The
British have sent n steamer TO Bagamoyo to
protect the English and Indian settlers IL
will offer refuge TO all Europeans and may sue
coed in inducing or compelling the enemy to let
them embark. The English still maintain fair
relations with the natives but the latter have
declared war against the Germans along the
coast on account Of tho bombardment Of posts
recently by the German squadron. The tribes
are rising far in the interior and moving toward
the coast.
