Bow Bear is Heaven.
Some locate Heaven so far from us that
the thought is cold. Many think of it
only in connection with the far-off stars.
This may be sublime, but it is as chilly
as a December night—as vague as moon'
shine. There is nothing sunny and invi
ting in it, and we do not wonder that in
experienced mortals shrink at the
thought. The apostle tells us of hope,
an anchor of the soul, which entereth into
hat within the veil: and further tells us
what is separated from us by this thin
wail—Heaven—for here Jesus for us has
entered. Only a veil between us and
Heaven ! How near—Separated by the
thinnest and frailest of all conceivable ma
terial! A tissue only intervenes, a colored
bi eath, which a moving zephyr can bear
away, an infant hand can tear, and time
and moth will consume. This almost
etherial partition is our embodied exie*.
tenee, fearfully and wonderfully woven
from tho frail threads of mortality. The
frailest thing in nature—tho sting of a
jnat, will rend it; an infected breath will
shake and shatter until it drops and falls.
And then, to the soul in Christ, Heaven
comes in more grandly than the sun in
morning through the mists of early day.
In the twinkling of an eye, a heart throb
a flash of thought, and Heaven is opened.
Behold," said Stephen, “I see the Hea
vens openedand this shout rent the
veil, and his unfettered soul went una
bashed into the presence of his Redeem
er, and through Him into the light and
amazement of eternity, David said, “As
the Lord God liveth, and as my soul liv
eth, there is but a step betwixt me and
leath.” But the believer is nearer to
Heaven, for only a veil lies between.
‘ So when our Uteri breath
Shall tend the veil in twain,
By rie« ti we-hall eecsttu.from death,
Aud file eternal itain
Limit your Wants.
Lord Bolingbroke, in his “Reflections
upon Exile,' says :—“Our natural and
real wants are confined to narrow bounds,
while those which fancy and custom create
are confined to none." Young men who
are just entering upon life, and forming
the habits which are likely to adhere to
them to its close, will do well to treasure
up in memory these true and instructive
words of one of England’s finest writers
and most philosophic statesmen :
‘ Our natural and real wants are confin
ed to narrow bounds.” It is surprising
how little it is that is absolutely essential
to man's existence, and, if he will take an
intelligent and considerate view of life, to
bis comfort and happiness. Intellectual
enjoyments as comparatively cheap. The
cultivation of the mind, which affords the
highest and the only enduring satisfac
tion, can be pursued ou an income quite
insignificant for the supply of luxuries.
Our physical wants are very few, if we
preserve our tastes simple, as they are by
nature. To cat, to drink, to exercise, to

That Northern man must be cross
granined and very hard to please who is
not satisfied with the conduct of the
Southern whites since the election. They
oave won a great victoiv in breaking the
backbone of the powerful combination of
carpet-baggers and negro dupes which
has long misgoverned their country. I*
the revolution they Lie wrought they
are sustained by the public sentiment
which has triumphed at the North. They
see that they are in happy accord witu
the majority of voters in tho Northern
States, for the first time since the does
of the war. This emboldens them to
speak out their minds freely and tn full
confidence that they will be understood
and appreciated. And they sre doing so
in a way that leaves no doubt of their
sincerity. The tone of the Southern
press is simply admirable. We read no
where in its pages a word of vengeance
on the late tyrants. There is but little
of exultation even ; but we note every
where a remarkable modesty and reserve.
The best men of the South have long been
disposed to forget the ancient grudges of
the war. Only a few Southerners of in
fluence have sullenly cherished the old
animosities. And now wo find the whole
Conservative party of the South generous
ly inclined to forgive and forgot the car
pet-baggers and the negro allies who have
mercilessly plundered them for nearly ten
veers. It is revenge enough to know that
these petty despots are overthrown in
some States and that in others their doom
is near at hand. Tho men of the South
will be content to take the wreck which
carpet-bagism has left to them and rebuild
and refurnish the vessel as best they can.
In the kindness of their hearts they may
go so far as to refrain from prosecuting
and punishing any of the thieving rings
which they have broken ; though we hope
that such magnanimity will not be exten
ded to men who do not in the least de
serve it. When Now Y'ork city voted
down the ring, the next step in order was
to catch the thieves and put them in pris
on, and that fate they could avoid only
by flight. The South seems only too
happy at the prospect of escape ft om car-
bag domination to think of penalties for
her oppieesora. Before the elections the
Radicals asserted that wherever they wf re
defeated there would be an immediate
outcry for a repeal of all the legislation
conferring rights upon tho freedmen.—
This was a wanton misstatement of
Southern Conservative feeling. In their
campaigns the Conservatives pledged
themselves, if successful, to respect the
acquired rights of the negroes ; and on
this promise they received in many places
a large share of the colored vote ; and
since the election they have voluntarily
renewed those pledges in the Strongest
terms. The Democratic State Comm .tte6
of Alabama say in their congratulatory
address: “These duties require of us that
jnstice must be fairly administered accord
ing to the law6 of the land ; that the
rights of all the people of Alabama, both
of person and of property, must be pre
served inviolate; tnat there must be no
oppref 3ion of any race or class of men,”
Ac., and other passages of the address
are to the same effect. The Charleston
News says in the same vein : “The
Southern whites should seize every op
portunity of proving that, as their power
increases, so will they do'more and more
for the moral and intellectual elevation
and the material advancement of the
negro, maintaining him in freedom, ena-
oling him to earn more and live better.”
Senator Gordon (Conservative,) in m
speech at Augusta after the election,
asked that he be commissioned to pledge
anew the fidelity of the people of Geor
gia “to the Constitution and the laws,
their support of all rightful authority,
their cordial friendship for every man and
all men of all sections who will aid in
rostering poa/ie tn the sections, justice to
the States, liberty to the citizens, purity
to tho Government, and the Constitution
to its supremacy." Such is the language
of the Conservative press and platform,
with no exception worthy of remark; and
we point to it as an augury of gre *t good
to the whole country. It ie of the ut
most importance to the peace and pros
perity of the Union that this light feeling
should be manifested spontaneously at
the South, and not be forced ont of her
by the pressure of other sections. The
great mistake of the Administration has
been in using unnecessaiily means to
compel tilt Southern people to do justioe
to the freedmen and to respect the Con
stitution and the laws. The truth is that
they have not been wanting in considera
tion for the colored race nor in obt dier.ee
to the laws, and the compulsory policy of
the Administration was superfluous and
insulting. This is now evident whtn we
nee that in tho moment of Conservative
.success at the south, the leaders voluntar
ily bind themselves to be as respectful of
the laws and of the rights of the hum
blest, as the warmest Radical friend of
the negro could dee ire. One of the ob-

a small sum will supply all these neceesi
ties. The pleasures which are port-, and
which tend to our improvement are with
in the reach of almost eveiy one. But
the wants w hich fancy and custom create,
as Lord Bolingbroke well says, aro con-
fined to no bounds. It is against these
that young men on the threshold of life
should sedulously guard. Beware ol
luxurious and expensive habits. The
gratification of them may cost you much
of the labor and time which, if given to
intellectual cultivation, would be far more
conducive to happiness. It is easy to do
without that winch you have never indul
ged in. It is hard to leave off habits,
however extravagant and absurd. When
you are to decide about adopting a mode
or style of living, consider well whether
it is certain that, without inconvenience,
you will be able always to preserve it.
The only safe rule is, to keep your wants
within narrow bounds.
There is nothing in this world which

Stanton’s Death—A Strange Story
of Suicide.
What Jerry Black has darkly hinted is
now boldly stated in some of the papers,
that Secretary Stanton hastened his
death, during the last days of his de
sponding illness, by a partially success*
ful attempt to cut his own throat It
was one of his customs, runs the now ex*
traoi dinary revelation, to be shaved at
uome, and the duty was pertormed by a
colored barber, who came regularly for
the purpose. In Mr. Stanton's private
Apartment stood an impiovised shaving-
cnair, and to this the ti usty valet wouid
go at the appointed time to peiform his
duty. Mr. Secretary Stanton had been
apparently failing in health for a week,
and had become so despondent as to al
most excite fears of an aberration of the
mind. On the evening of the 23d of De
cember the colored valet called to shave
Stanton. They were left in the private
apartment and Stanton took his Beat in
the chair. The barber had partially fin
ished his task, and laying the razor on a
little table beside Stanton, stepped across
the room for some water. A u.ov, ment
startled him, and he turned just in time
to see the glistening steel flash by the
hared throat, leaving a streak in its wal 6.
Rushing to the side of Stanton, the bars
ber caught the razor before anotuer stroke
could be made. He called for help, and
in a few moments there were at the bed
side the surgeon-general, a few trusty
attaches of the government, and one or
two members of the family. The work
had been done, however, and the life
current reached. At 3 o'clock next morn
ing Stanton was dead. How well tho
secret of hia death has been kept, those
who seed this may know.
He could not stand the ghostly visits
of Mrs. Snrrat and Wirz, as night after
night they stood around hiB bed and
shook their skeleton fingers at him. Ho
