HUMAN SELFISHNESS.

We go our way in life too much alone;
We hold ourselves too far from all our kind;
Too often we are dead to sigh and moan;
Too often to the weak and helpless blind;
Too often where distress and want abide,
We turn and pass upon the other side.
The other side Is trodden smooth. and worn
BY footsteps passing idly all the day.
Where lie the bruised ones that faint and
mourn
Is seldom more than an untrodden way.
Our selfish hearts are for our feet the guido
They lead us by upon the other side.
1t should be ours the oil and wine to pour
Into the bleeding wounds Of stricken ones;
To take the smitten and the sick and sore,
And bear them where q stream of blessing
runs.
Instead we look about-the way is wide,
And so we pass upon the other side.
Oh, friends and brothers, gliding down the
years.
Humanity Is calling each and oil
In tender accents, born Of grief and tears.
pray you, listen to the thrilling call,
You cannot, In your cold and selfish pride,
Pass guiltlessly by on the other side.

Joseph Israel, three brave young Off
GERS, persisted with their men while en-
deavoring to destroy the enemy's flo
tilla. Finally, the brother and rival of
the bashaw was induced by our consul,
Eaton, to take up arms against him,
and Eaton himself, picking twelve
hundred men from a rabble of many
thousands, and reinforcing them with
body of marines, captured Derne,
three of our vessels meanwhile silenc-
ing the shore batteries. Then, for the
first time, the flag of the United States
floated over fortress of the Old
World. About five weeks later the
bashaw signed treaty by which he
relinquished all claims to tribute
and agreed to release our captive coun-
trymen for sixty thousand dollars.
This was in June, 1905, and thus after
four years the war ended in throwing
off an ignoble yoke of piratical states,
while our young navy had gained
great prestige by brilliant deeds of
daring.
The war of 1912 brings us to more
familiar story, opening with the
causes of the conflict, the affair of the
Chesapeake and the Leopard, and that
of the president and the Little Belt,
and then depicts the capture of the
Alert by Porter in the Essex, and the
famous race in which the Constitution
showed her heels to Broke's squadron.
Very soon, too, we get spirited ac-
count of the brilliant victory of the
Constitution over the Guerriere. Mr..
Maclay tells us that three times Lieut..
Morris asked Capt. Hull if he should
return the enemy's fire, which had
made havoc in the American frigate,
and three times received Capt. Hull's
calm Not yet, SIR" But when the de-
sired position was gained, off the enc
