A MISTAKEN IDEA.

There is mistaken idea, preva-
lent among the youth of this coun-
try, that it is duty, not only to
avenge an insult, but to he on the
alert to see an insult IN any &C.
casion. Many deadly duel has
been fought and many q promising
life has been sacrificed, because OF
this over sensitive notion that man
must not miss an opportunity to
avenge fancied wrong, says the
Rome tribune.
This idea il altogether at variance
with every noble sentiment and
every instinct OF reason and com,
mon sense. Every breach of good
manners does not amount to a dead
ly affront and neither does every
rude remark rise to the dignity of
an insult demanding a summary
revenge. These matters should be
weighed carefully brfore they are
acted upon.
Ut course men, young or old, say
and do things, on the impulse o.
the moment, that they should not
say or do if given time for reflection.
Therefore they should learn to con-
troll their impulses. 1t is much
easier to perpetrate wrong than to
remedy mistake, and the way to
live agreeably with your fellow men
is to be slow to anger OF to resent q
fancied wrong.
Be not overready to take ofense.
Cultivate spirit of forgiveness and
learn to overlook things that may
worry and annoy for the moment
but the effects of which soon pass
away and are forgotten. This is
much better than to be eternally
engaged in feud or a wrangle over
some trivial matter, which neither
dignity nor honor demand that you
should resent.

Shout In the Animals Ear.

Apropos of 4 he resent remarks on
tho question of assisting fallen
horses on to their legs, one of my
readers mentions the old plan of
suddenly shouting in the prostrato
animals ear, the shouter having
first placed himself out of reach of
the animals legs. This plan is, no
doubt, very effioaoious in the case
of q quadruped that can get up and
won't, but I fear that it would be of
little service to the poor beast that
wants to get up, but can't.
A Hungarian correspondent also
tells mo that in this country drivers

him the rug with which they cover
him when standing still. have seen
the same expedient resorted to here,
but man can often only put rug

AT MY COTTAGE DOOR.

Weird and gaunt are the swaying branches
OF the leafless trees on the hill,
And the frost hath woven its tracefy
On the sedges beside the rill.
From the forest have flown its songsters;
Their minstrelsy no more
Greets the rosy dawn's uprising
AS ope my cottage door.
In the warmest nook Of the barn caves
Sit the swift winged dove and mate,
Talking and nodding as grsvely
As sages Der matters Of state,
And the sheltered kline are munching
In yon shed their autumn store
How the dawn lit rafters glisten
Seen from my cottage door!
No longer is heard from yonder branch
The robins sweet roundelay.
Fen the swallows that housed in my chin
ney
Have ceased their noisy play.
Soon his white robe, ample and spotless,
King Winter shall fling DER
The desolate, barren landscape
Outside my cottage door.
When the gathering shades Of evening
Rob the day Of golden light,
And brightly DER field and mountain
Rises Luna, queen Of the night,
Imuse over Joys departed,
And friends that have gone before,
And wonder when I, like the year, shall
fade,
And be borne from my cottage door.
And as I am waited by memory
Up times everflowing stream;
Not somber all, like the fields without,
Are the scenes Of my waking dream.
Oft, too, seem to catch O glimpse
OF that bright and sinless shore
Where summer and roses never fade,
Far beyond my cottage door.

weekly Market Review.

Cotton-The market was again quiet and
devoid of any special features. Early in
the week there was some tendency to-
wards slightly lower prices, but later
firmer tone prevailed so that although
there was a little show of weakness again
at the close, prices leave off about IL
points higher than the week before. The
firmness was due to a moderate decrease
in receipts, more noticeable in interior
towns The amount coming in sight was
a tri1e above last years figures, but con-
siderably behind those of the same week
two years ago. So far the crop in sight
is about 100000 bales more than up to the
corresponding date last year. If the
movement from now on equals last years,
the crop would be only about ~ 900 bales.
Considering the early picking and mar
keting of this crop, it is hard to see how
any one can expect an Increase in the
volume to be received henceforth. Yet,
am influential part of the trade persists in
asserting that probabilities point to
crop Of something like 100000 bales. There
seems absolutely no grounds whatever
upon which to base such an expectation;
a possible few hundred thousand bales of
top crop will not bring the result mate

the yield from official data. AT present
the popular guess appears to be about
S,5o0,O00 bales; when the trade finds that
over a million must be knocked off from

be looked for in the market. attended by
