Words of Wisdom.

Death and to-morrow are never hei they are either not cpme or gone.

Death comes to a good man to relieve him it comes to a bad one to relieve society.

If a woman is truly beautiful, let not her beauty be made dim by the flash of diamonds.

He who despises praise will not be ikelv to practice the virtues that would entitle him lo it.

Tranquil pleasures last the longest. We are not fitted to bear long the burden of great joys.

The wasp attacks the ripest fruit first, BO will slander attempt to wound the most honest fame.

The face of truth is not the less fair for all the qoiihterfeit vizards that have Jeea put upon her.

The misery of idleness is nearly as manifest in high life as in rags and filth of extreme poverty.

Accustom yourself to some emplov•nent for every hour you can prudently snatch from business. lu t(he time that men waste in bewailing the perverseness of their fortune, they could gain a competency.

Hethatthinks himself the happiest man really is so^ but he that thinks himself the wisest is generally "the greatest fbol.

Sorrow comes soon enough without despondency, it does a man jno good to carry around a lightning-rod to attract rouble.

The violet erowsiow and covers itself with its n\u tears, and of all flowers, yields the sweetest fragrance. Such is liumility

If you asli an obstinatl man to incline his ears to reason* he is very likely to incline them backwards, like ajiorse bent on mischief I. £ove cannot Sully admit the feeling that the beloved object n'mjr die all passions feel their object,to be'as eternal as themselves.

The great see the world at one end by flattery, the little at the other end by neglect the meanness which both discover is the same.

You may gain applause by one great, wise, or fortunate action to avoid censure, you must pass a whole life without saying one bad or foolish thing

Whenever you find a great deal of gratitude in a poor m|ri, you may takr it for granted there MHjnild be as much generosity if he were a rich man.

Phantasms oi iho Brain. |T The ancients believed that at the point where man's rule and power over the forces of the world ended, there destiny began and if a ship was wrecked at tea, or if a country was devastated by epidemic, as su'.'li catastrophes werl vlenrlv not brought about by man's wishes or desires, they thought ihht they could only be caused by some toys* terfous.'iuperhuman power who meddled with, and ruled over, hurnftn affairs. We caaftot certainly be surprised that such should have been the views and opinions of persons who were ignorant of the fact tliat a storm or an epidemic is but a natural effect resulting from Autufal causes, and that its occurrence is governed by laws as certain and hi variable as that, of'gravitation. In a country where there wore supposed to be gods of the sea and gods of the woods, rulers of the wind and deities of the river, there manifestly was but little room in which man's free will could assert itself. But nunv, since wo know that we have in truth only to contend with natural forces, and those, too, of a constant and uniform character, we can by studying their laws render them subservient to bur wishes, ajid make them become our ministers, instead of allowing them to be our masters. The electric current which in the form of lightning was once the fiery sword of angry deity, has now become the frilling messenger of man, and carries his commands to the uttermost parts of the earth, ^hus one of the most marvelous and tearfbl instruments of Destiny, as it appeared to the inhabitants of Rome and Athens som twenty centuries ago, has iii these iaier days lost much of its.-:-terrible character: »and to the great disgust of Juplterand the other lords of Olympus, little Mr. Dillettante at his scientific, seances can give you as mncii lightning as you wish- Hie fancy and imagination are nlore powerful and less subject to the dictates of reason, in the night than they are ih the day-time the land of darkness may be considered as their proper and natural habitat and like ttie bate, they are most busy when the sun has left us.

Slorenly Manuscript.

Fortnightiy Review.

that would fill thirty of these pages, and yet from beginning to end there is no indication that it is not to be read in a single breath. The paragraph ought to he, and in all good writers it is, as real and as sensible a division as the sentence. It is an organic member in prose composition with a beginning, a middle, and an end, jt»t as a stanza is an organic and definite member in the composition ode. "I fear my manuscript is rathe? disorderly/' says another, "but I will correct carefully in print," Just so. because lie is too heedless to do his work in a workmanlike way, he first inflicts fetigue and vexation on the editor whom he expects to read his paper second, he inflicts considerable and. quite needless expense on the publisher and thifdh he inflicts a great deal of tedious and thankless, labor on the printers, who are for tbe most part far more meritorious persons than fifth-rate authors. Le is true that Burke returned such disordered proofs that the printer usually found it the least troublesome to set the whole afresh, and Miss Martineau tells a story of a Scotch compositor who fled from Edinburgh to avoid a great living author's manuscript, and, to his horror, was presently confronted with a piece of copy which made him cry, "Lord have mercy? Have you got that man to orint ftr I" But most editors will cheertully forgive such transgressions to all contributors who wiil guarantee^ that they will write as wteil as Burke and Carlyle. Alas, it is usually the cage that those who have least excuse are the worst offenders. The slovenliest manuscripts come from persons to whom the difference between an hour and a minute is of the very smallest importance. This digestion is to be excused, partly by the natural desire to siiy word* against one's persecutors,

A STRANGE SCEJTK.—A well-dressef man walked into one of the saloons the other day leading a little boy oy the hand, ana calfed for a drink of whiskey. The little fellow burst into tears and begged his father not to drink, and the saloon keeper, to his credit be it said, refused him, whereupon the man jumped behind the bar and seized a bottle of the article in question. The bar-keeper attempted to take the bottle from -him, and a scuffle ensued, during which the liquor was spilled, and the stranger ejected. A man of family who was present was so struck by the conduct of tbe boy, that he left the saloon and made an oath that he would never drink another drop. What a scene for an artist's gencil! A wonderful battle, in which a little boy conquers the bar-keeper and the man of family present. br.t cannot prevail over his own beloved xit besotted father!
