THE DESIRE FoR HAPPINEss.-Tbere
are some stars we cannot see at all
when we look straight at them, but
which becomes visible when we look
to one side. So there are things that
we cannot get when we try directly
for them; but which presently fall
into our laps if only we try hard
enough for something else. Every
body knows it is that way with hap
piness. Make it primary object, and
it leads you a doubtful chase, but ig-
more it in the rational pursuit Of some
thing else, and presently you may find
it perched unnoticed on your should
er like a bird whose tail has felt the
traditional influence OF salt.
So, of course, the very first essential
to the achievement Of happiness Of
any durable sort is to rise above tho
necessity of being happy at all. 1t
may be conducive to this sort of
achievement to remember that great
spirits in all times have found in their
w involuntary discomfort a spur to
exalted endeavor. Neither Lincoln
nor Balzac nor Carlyle was a happy
man, but they put the saddle and bri-
die on their own depression and rode
it under whip and spur into immor-
tality. Columbus himself had low
spirits, and Socrates and the judicious
Hooker both had Xantippes.

There is no more a~ggravating per
son in the world than the n who is
eternally forgetting things. "Ifnd it
so hard remember names," walls a
pretty woman, and her sy~mpathizers
arise in scores. Now, why on earth
should it be hard to remember names?
Why should it be hard to remember
any common occurrence? People re-
member what they want to-that is,
when they concentrate their minds
upon a thing it is not apt to elude
them. The trouble is that they will
not do this. 1t requires a certain
amount of exertion, that is true. But
is the gain nothing Unless a wo-
man is i'll in body or mind there is no
reason why she should not remember
anything she wishes to. The mind IS
capable of great concentration and a
good memory depends upon it. If one
had a tendency to forgetfulness she
should at once determine upon sys-
tematic mental discipline. Begin by
forcing the mind at night to recall the
events of the day, logically and in Or
der. Give up making notes Of mat
tiers requiring attention, and compel
the mind to recall these things. Cul-
tivate a habit Of observance Of every
little detail Of surrounding. Learn to
listen carefully to names, dates, events
as they occur, and especially cultivate
the habit of mental review. 1t is
wonderful how soon what was at pre-
sent an irksome task becomes a pleas
ure.

The Execution of George Dr,er.

George Drier. the murderer OF Mrs.
Fannie NJ. McFadden, expiated his
crime on the gallows, in the iail.ynrd
at Eastville, on Friday afternoon.
June 10Th inst, at ia o'clock.
The condemned man maintained
to the last the stoical composure and
rem .rkable fortitude that has char
acterized his demeanor since his inn
prisonment and trial. A few days
before the time set for his execution
he amused himself, after the manner
of child, in playing around the jail
yard.
His last day on earth saw no
departure from his unnatural COM
posure. Even at the last moment he
did not finch. At II o'clock in the
morning he was visited by Rev. W.
Nelson Meade, of the Episcopal, and
Rev. w. e. Lindsay. of the Presby-
terrain Church, who remained with
him until p. M, when the death
warrant was read by sheriff Jarvis
and the solemn march to the gallows
begun. Drier walked without assis
lance to the steps of the trap, said
goodbye to the few witnesses pres
emit and smiled as the black cap was
fitted over his face.
The rope was cut at LA p. IN. by
B. F. Kellogg, of Cape Charles, who
had been sworn in as deputy sheriff.
Twelve minutes later life was pro-
nounced extinct by the physicians in
attendance. Death resulted from
strangulation. In Difference to
Drier's wishes the hanging was wit
messed only by few persons.
The confession written by Drier
shortly before his death is now in the
hands of Governor Mckinney, and
some doubt is expressed as to wheth-
or it will ever be made public.
