AVOID FoGETFULNEss.

A successful business man say :
there were two things which lie
learned when he was eighteen.
which were ever afterward Of great
use to hIm, namely. Never 10 lose
anything aud never To forget any
thing" An old lawyer sent him
with an important paper, with Ger
tain instructions what TO do with it
But" inquired the young man,
suppose | lose It: what shall | do

don't intend to- said the young
man, suppose should happen to?"
But l say YOU must not happen to;
/ shall make no provision for any
such occurrence: you must not lose
i.1
This put a new train of thoughts
into the young mans mind, and ne
found that if he was determined 20
do a thing he could do it. He made
such a provision against every
contingency that he never lost
anything. He found this equally
true about forgetting. If a certain
matter Of Importance was to be
remembered, he pinned it down on
his mind, fastened 1t there, aud
made it stay. He used to say :
"N hen man tells me he forgot to
do something, | tell him he might
aS we'll have SAID: L do not care
enough about your business to take
the trouble to think Of 1t again.
| once had an intelligent young
man in my employment who deemed
it sufficient excuse for neglecting

it," | told him that would not
answer. If he was sufficiently in.
tereSted he woQld be careful to re

worked for me three years, and
during the last of the tbrec he was
utterly changed in this respect, Ht

Jefferson Davis.

He stood as some lone column, staunch
and bold,
Amid the wreck of that majestic pile,
Defying times fierce scath; around, the
while,
Palsied with age, his fellows loosed their
hold,
And tottered to their fall. Above the
mould
The tendrilS steal, and the fresh grasses
wave:
He falls-the last-shaft, frleze, and
architrave,
All lvied in bright, immortal fold,
Wjthia the far off years that are to be,
When time anew shall rear these
crumbling walls,
And lift the stones upon their pedestals,
The pilgrim down these colonnades
shall wander,
And DER the vastness and sublimity
Of this one strong-wrought central pill

Gen. Clarke went on to explain
about the high priced meal. 1t was

1868. The Federal army had Just
taken possession OF the town. A
few days before that one Of the Fed :
