HELEN GRAY.
BT CHRISTINA O. BOMITTI.
SAW mill CORN KLL
For Sale on Consignment.
Because one loves yon, Helen Grey,
Is that a reason you should pout,
■ . And like a March wind veer about.
And frown, and say your shrewish say ?
Don't strain the chord until it snaps,
Don’t split the sound heart with your wedge,
Don’t cut your fingers with the edge
Of your keen wit; you may, perhaps.
Because your’e handsome, Helen Grey,
Is that a reason to be proud?
Your eyes are bold, your laugh is loud,
Your steps go mincing on their way;
But so you miss that modest charm
Which is the surest charm of all;
Take heed you may yet trip and fall.
And no mau care to stretch his arm.
Stoop from tout cold height, Helen Grey,
Dome down, and take a lowlier place,
Come down, to fill it now with grace;
( omi! down you must per force some day,
For years cannot he kept at bay,
And fading years will make you old:
Then in your turn will men aeem cold.
When you youraelf are nipped and gray.
A Good Epitaph.—A surgeon in General Sherman's
army copied the following inscription from a tomb
stone in a grave-yard at Cheraw, 8. C., while on the
march through that State :
My name—my country—
What are they to thee ?
What, whether high or low,
My pedigree?
Perhaps I far surpassed
All other men ;
Perhaps I fell below them all!
What then ?
Suffice it, stranger,
Thou seest a tomb!
Thou know’st its use ;
It hides—no matter whom.
IN GENERAL,
-Only a German could have patience to coant the
hairs of the human head, which have been commonly
supposed to be “without number.” The results are
sufficiently curious to reward the investigation. The
hair from-the heads of four women, weighing about
fourteen ouuceB to the head, was taken, and on the
head ol' the blonde were found 140,419 hairs; of the
brown-haired 109,440; of the black-haired 102,000 and
cf the red-haired woman 83,740.
—A Lyons manufacturer has lately tnmed out from
his looms an admirable likeness of Lincoln, woven in
silk—black and white. The resemblance is striking,
and, at the distance of a few feet, it is impossible to
distinguish the picture from a fine engraving.
—The Lafayette Journal learns of a Teutonic indi
vidual in that city who threw himself outside of eigh-
ty-seveu glasses of beer and two glasses of whiskey in
i me day. After performing the feat lie dryly remarked
that tie "could have taken a great deal more, but did
not feel particularly thirsty that day."
—The defence of Dr. Newland, on trial in Indiana
tnr killing Evans, the seducer of his daughter, will be
made on the grounds that the Doctor did the deed
while under mental alienation consequent apon the
intense excitement caused by the confession that
nigh t, from his daughter’s lips, of the guilt of Evans
and.of her own ruin.

A Glorious Result
H.
There are as many roads to fame and fortune as
there were gateways to ancient Thebes. Your am
bitions warrior is for carrying his way with the
sabre; your aspiring politician for scheming his way
by intrigue and consummate alt. But there is one
grand broad path to the goal, along which nothing
base can travel. It is the path set apart for the
march of talent, energy, and noble purpose an
though fall of obstacles, it contains none that a brave
man cannot snrmonnt. This fact has been exemplified
n innumerable instances, but in lew more forcibly
ban in the rise and progress of DB. .HOOFLAND’S
GERMAN BITTERS. For over fifteen years Its course
has been onward and upward, scattering blessings at
every step, until it now stands on the topmost rounds
of the ladder of fame, as the
