No love like the love of a mother When trials are gathering fast— Though fond I* the care of a brother, Sometimes it will fail *t the last. Should you turn from the pathway of duty, A sister's sflection may fade; But mother love shows its beat beauty When her child to sin is betrayed. A father mar speak stern and coldly If bia son baa wandered astray; But mother will Band forward boldly And help him regain the lost way, nnd speak to him kindly, in warning, With just as teuder a tone As she did in childhood's pure morning, ■ Ere sorrow and crime be bad kuown. Ah, uo! there’s no lore like a mother's So noble, forgiving and true; We may trust ts many another's And vnluo it, that it ia n'-w, To And, when life's sun is shrouded. Ami our pathway enters tbe gloom, Their love for us, too, will be clouded, While hers follows us to tbe totnb. Pearls of Thought. It is vanity to seek after perish* inn riches, uud to trust them. It is \unity to desire to livo ioug, aud not to caro to live well. Perfection ii the point for which all should steadily aim. It is vanity to strive after hon ors, and to'climb to high degno Wo are nil frail, but do thou esteem nouo more frail than thy self. Next to love, sympathy is the diviuest pus-don of the hunuu heart. If you wi»h to remove avarice you mu.it remove its mother—lux ury. Charity and | er.onal forcu tire the only investments wirlU any*, thing. Many wo'di do not satisfy the soul; but u go d life c.mforleth iiind. Who hath a greater combat than he that laborith to overcome him- self?

Its four outer doors weigh 8,200 pounds each, and have every effective and known improvement in defensive dtvicts. A massive wall of ma sonry sat rounds the Ironwork. The vault, which is burglar, fire and water proof, constitutes a dis tinct building in itself. Brevities. Better break thy word than do worse in keeping it.

Two great problems will occu py tbe minds of this nation at no distant day. The first will be that of Mormonism and how to get rid of it. The second will be termed: “The negro: How shall wo rnanago him ?” That tho nepro has got to be managed will surprise some people —that class in tho North who have never sot foot south of the Ohio River, aud who fondly imagine that tho colored man of the North is a true sample of tho race in this country. There is as much differ ence between the blacks North aud South of tho Ohio River as there is between Chinamen and Indians, A negro loafer is a rare caso at the North, even in our cities, feels that he must work or go rag ged and hungry. The negro loui- er of tho 8outh can be met with at every corner. Tho only feeling ho hits is to cscapo work. lie can probably bog his old clothes and ough food to keep him from starving. If ho can’t then look out for his thievish lingers. A Noitlurn negro’s statement * is hardly ever questioned. A South ern negro will tell three lies to one truth. When wc make a verbal bargain with a Northern negro wo rely upon him to carry out bis part of tho contract. A Southern planter may lake a negro before u Justice of tho Peace and swear him, and then oblige him to make his mark to nn agreement drawn up in b gal form to labor for so long a lime at so much per month, and the negro will jump that con tract m believer he pleases without the t-lightefti regard to honor.— Nineterii out of twenty will lie to and steal from tho very nun to whom they nre the most indebted. Freedom and the ballot, coining together. Upset tho slave. As u slave ho worked uud obeyed cer tain rules and ngwlatious - because I he feared tho -penalty. Laft to his (awii planning he Inis no head Left to carry out his own ideas, he ! makes lying, deceiving and trick*- ! cry take tbo place of work, An a firm laborer no one can be Bure whe: her ho will stay a day or a month. The very best of them will quit work whomVtr the whim scix*s. Saturday is n holiday in which lie niuet go to town and spend bis last cent, no matter how the crops are situated. l'i the North tho virtue of the avenge colored woman is unques tioned. in the South not one in a thousiud is credited with it. As a race they do not kuow tho moan ing of ilia term. A colored preacher at Augusta who was aolio iting subscriptions to rebuild a country church swept away by a ejeluno told mo that almost every inan in bis congregation Lit at liberty to desert wife and children und marry ngdn whenever ho so willed. Ho had cburclnd do/.cus of them for h.iving two, three aud four wives. Southern men bavo seen a change in tho negro jc«r by year. Ho has no ambition—no industry. Year by year it is becoming more diflicult to handle him as a laborer. He is deserting tbe country tor the towns, lie is ungratuful ar.d tri fling. For the benefit of Northern philanthropists 1 should like to say that the race has improved. In one way it hat. Most of them c.tn read and write, but this very im provement bus worked tbtru an injury. The colored man who can read a newspaper or write a letter will not do a stroke of work if he starves as the (tensity. lie is above it and is looking for an office. Ninety eight out of every hundred five like dogs and worra. Right on the plantation where they work they will steal tho own er blind. As for rchools, tho money is equally divided, and they are giv en every chance, but the father whose boy can earn him two bits a day will not send him to school for an hour. Educate a colored girl end she put* on airs, refuses to do work, and runs off to some city to lead a fast life. Replace the negro lebor of the South with white men and her crops would double, but tbo negro keeps the white labor away. He won't work and bo won’t get out. Tbe people of tbe South have borne from the black man what no other people would endure. They poos over bis impudence, find .icons tor hi. luintM, and ijmp*' thizu with him when be comes be fore the law. They pay all hia taxes, burden themselves with his schooling, stand for his doctor bills, and feel far more kindness for him than any of us in tho North. And yet thero must bo u change. The agriculture of tho South must drift backwards, the negro must get out, or there must be some bet ter way of controlling him. Our Northern farmers rout out their hired help at daybreak and push ’em for all they are worth. Tho negro canuot bo routed out. Ho cannot bo pushed. If $5,000 worth of oats were in danger he would not quicken his pace nor give up his trip to town. Bind yourself to give him 81,000 per month and he will jump tho contract the samo as if the figures were $12. And ho is not only a natural tyrant, hut naturally citiul. Ho will knock his mule down will) a club where a white nmn would not speak out sharply. lie will pound his wife as if film were a log, and I have repeatedly seen pinto men inter fere to prevent thorn front crippling th--ir children. Wq all want the negro to im prove. Ho bus become a port mid portion of o»r country, our politics, and our ballads. But let us not dcccivo ourselves. Hu is a far worse problem than tho savage Indian of the plains. The latter we cm force with bullet and bayo net. The former can only l»o pun ished as a law-breaker, and laughs at the penalty.—M. Quad in Dc • trail Free Frees. Women and Men. \j slander” in Detroit Times. 1 wonder where even strict mor alists find their authority for tho univmal practice of allowing a young man nn intermediate time fe in which to sow his wild ? On l he other bund, I won der if anybody ever admitted tho same necessity in tho case of girls ? I often hear it mid that n man should have his amusements, his clubs, cigars, fist horses, flirtations and wiucs! Now suppose the wo men and girls should reek with tho ocor of cigars and whi.-ky ? Sup pose they became openly addicted to taking a “ nip of something” wlicit their spirits were low ? Sup pas*) they sit down among their fcIloAH and gambled nway a f*)r« tuno ju»t to piSH tho dull hours, It is customary to demand so much of excellence at the hands of women that the worst of them are apt to hi better in every way than tho average man, I have known some women who wero social outcasts, but a ho, in (mint of heart, conduct, and general moral icctilude, might I ave furnished material for the making of very upright gentlemen iudood. They have fallen, it is true, hut what a fearful penalty thoy have paid for that fall; while by compar ison, tho kiudred penalties of men are so slight. If a young man gels mixed up in some disagreeable on tunglcrncnt, breaks a heart ami throws a young girl upon the streets, after having ruined her life, people say to him compassion atcly by and by. “ lie was so young when bo did it, and now ho has turned over a new leaf.” But if an iaexpericnced girl, a mere child of sixteen or seventeen, comes to harm in a moment of moral weakness, born perhaps ot too much love and over confidence, who ever thinks of pleading her youth as an excuse? Who ever urges seriously, that a girl has turned a new leaf? Who, in short, ever urgoa upon her attention the desirability or necessity of doing so? A Cyclone Story. ILwkinsville News.) One follow was from Wilcox and tbe other resides in this county, Tho Wilcox county man said; “After our big cyclone, a year or two ago, a large number of birds and chickens wero found from which every feather had been stripped by tbe terrible wind, lu fact they were peeled •• elick as an onion, but the fowls were etUl alive and kicking.” “Ob, that’s nothing,” exclaimed tbe Pulsski man. “One of my neighbors bad bis well blown so crooked by tbe same cyclone tbnl be has not been able to get a buck et down into it since, and be woe compelled to dig another well” At this point the meeting ad journed to tbe nearest saloon. Burning Widows. A8 polygamy ia allowed among tbo Hindoos, it frequently happens that more than one widow immo lates herself on the dead body of her husband. Oue of the- most horrible scenes ever enacted in tbe East was the burning of forty-sev en widows at ouce, the wives of the Prince of Marata. lie died above the age of eighty. A deep circular pit was dug in a field without the town; in the middle of it was erected a pile of wood, on the left of which, on a couch richly ornamented, lay the body of the deceased Prince in his finest robes, After nuraber/oss rites wero per formed by tho Brahmins, the pilo was set oil fire and, immediately, the unhappy women appeared, sparkling with jewels and adorned with flowers. The»o victims walk ed several times aroung tho burn ing pyre, tho heat of which was felt quite a distance. The princi pal widow, then holding the dag ger of hor lato husband, thus ad dressed herself to the Prince, his successor: “Here is tho dagger tho King made use of to triumph over his enemies; beware never to employ it to other purposes, nover iuibruo it with the blood of your subject*; govern them as a father, as ho has done, and you shall livo long am] happy as ho d d. Since he is no more, nothing can keep me longer in tho world. All that re mains for mo is to follow him*,” With theso words sho resigned tbe dagger into the Prince’s baud, who took it from her without showing the leu*L sign cf grief or compos sion, Tho Princi-ss now appeared agitated. One of tho domestics, a Christian woman, hud frequently talked with her upon religion aud, though sho never surrendered her idols, hud made so.no impression her mind. Perhaps they now revived. With a most expressive look she cried out: “Alas ! what U tho end of human happiness? that I shall plunge myself headlong iuto hell.” Ou these words horror was visible on every countenance, while, resuming cour- ugo, sho boldly turnod hor face to tho burning pile and, calling upon her gods, llong herself into the midst of the flames. Tho secoud widow was the bister of tho Princo of the blood, who was present ana assuL d at the sacrifice. Sho ad. vanced to her brother An<l gavo bint the jewels wborewith she was adorned. 11 is feelings gave wty, lie bunt into tears and foil oo her neck in tender embraces. She, however, remained unmoved, gsz lug upon tbe fire and then upon tho as-istant. Then loudly cryiug: “Chivu I Cbiva 1” tho uauio of one of her gods, a ho jumped into tho fiameu as tbo former had done. The others soon followed, some with bowildercd, downcast and aor< rowful looks. One of them shriek ed above tho rest, ran to a Chris tian soldier whom she behold ameng the guards, and hanging about his neck begged him to aave her. Tbo new convert, stunned with surprise, pushed tho unfort- unato woman from him, aud, shrieking aloud, she fell into the fiery trench. The soldier, all shivering with terror, at once re tired, snd a delirious fever ended his lifo tho following night— Though many of the unhappy vic tims at first showed tho utmost intrepidity, yet no soouer did they feel the flafhes than they screamed out iu the most dreadful manner, and, weltering over each other, strove to gain the brim of tbe pity bat in vain; the assistants forced them back with their potea and piled new fuel upon them. The next day the Brahmins gathered tbo bones and tbro# thorn into the sea. Tbo pit was leveled, a temple erected upon the spot, aud the dc* ceased Princo and bis wives were reckoned among tbo deities.— Brooklyn Eagle. A health journal says that yon ought to taka three-quarters of an hoar for your dinner. It would be wdl also to add a few vegeta bles and a piece of meat It is said that water composes tbrve fourtbs of the human body. This may bold good In some com munities, but io others water does not enter largely into man’s com position. Marriage is at the end of many a man’s trouble, but it would be imprudent to say which end. A Woman'! Pair of Mew Shoos. When a woman has a new pair of shoes sent home sho performs altogether different fromj a roan. She never shoves her toes into them and yanks aud hauls until she red In tho face and all out of breath, and then goes stamping snd kieking around, but pulls them ou part way carefully, twitch es them off again to take a last look aud see if she has got tho right one, pulls them on again, looks at them dreamily, says they are just right, then takes another look, steps suddenly to smooth out the wrinkle, twists around and surveys them sideways, exclaims, “Mercy how looso they are,” looks at them again square in front, works her feet around so they won’t hurt her quite so much, takes them off, looks at the heels, the toe, tho bottom, and then in side, puts them on again, walks up and down the room once or twice, remarks to her better-half that she won’t have thorn at any price, tilts down tbo mirror so she can seo how they look, tarns in every possible directioo, and nearly dislocates her neck trying to seo how they look from that way, backs off, steps up again, takes thirty or for ty farewell looks, says they make her feet look awful big and will never do in the world, puts them off and on three or four times more, asks her husband what he thiuks about it, and pays uo attention to wbat ho says, goes through it all again, and finally says she will take them. It is a very simple matter, iudeed,—Chicago Tribune. A Solid Homo Virtuo, Economy is a virtue which is needed everywhere. No matter if persons arc rich or have largo in comes, they should be economical. To waste is wicked. Thero arc belter ways to spend monoy and goods than to wasto them. It is tho poorest use they can be put to. Many people would bo economical if they knew bow. It is an art to practice economy. To do it well, ooo must kuow tho art. All can have it if they will. It is an arith metical art. It is tho conclusion of uuinbers. All must live and ought to live well, but bow to live tho best at tbe least expeuso is tbe wjrk cf figures to tell. We must count the cost of ways and com pare them. Many peoplo aso ex pensive articles of food and dress when cbeapor ones would bo in cv*» ry way better and more servicea bio. Espocially in regulating tho table expenses is there a great want of economy. A little useful infer motion concerning the qualities cf food, tho amount and hind of nu> trilion matter they contain, tbe wants of the human system and the bist way of cooking, would often live fully one third, and, in many instances, half the expense, A wi«e economy in table expenses is favorable to health, and in ibis way saves time, drugs, expenses and doctors’ bills, flcsb| strength and happiness. If we well knew how little others enjoy, it wculd tescue tho world from one sin; there would be no such thing as envy upon earth, The reason why borrowed books are so seldom retarned to Ibeir owners is that it is much staler to retain the books than wbat is in them. Gntitade is the homage the bean renders to God for tlis good ness. Christian cheerfulness is the external manifestation of that homage. Only the true man can really bo brave, only tbe righteous man walk through the darkness, and face with a serene soul the mystery of life. That silence is one of tbe arts of conversation Is allowed by Cicero himself, »bo says; “There is only an art, bnt even an eloquence in it.” ^ What ladue are Attractive. All ladies know their faces are mors attractive when free from pimples. Parker’s Ginger Tonic is popular among them bscanse it banishes impurities from blood and skin and makes tbs face glow with Mr. Jndsh P. Benjamin’s role In law was said to be: u Pint I charge a retainer, then I charge a reminder, next I charges refresher and then I charge a finisher.” Heap otit of Debt. A debt is a fetter. It outs bard into the neck; it binds you when you lie down to sleop; it rises with you id tbe morning; it clings to you through the day—therefore, keep out of debt! It is a vampire that socks out your heart’s blood and consumes your beauty; there fore, keop out of debt. Tho debt or is not himself; be cannot look his creditor in tbe face; he cannot look the market man in the face; thorefoi e, keep oat of debt “Bun* ning in debt,” says an old minister “is the 6rst sin; lying is tbe sec ond siu, for running in debt lends to lying.” It leads to many other sins, it leads in a great many in stances to self destruction; and of the very largo and lamentable number of suicides that havo oc curred of late, tbo majority bavo Imen caused by running in debt. If needful, wear your old coat longer, live on simpler diet, take a plainer house, rise earlier jo the moruing, do any thing fair and honest, if you must savo yourself from running in debt. For debt is a tyrant goadiug you, tantaliz* ing, torturing you, and still, un- pitying us the grave, pursuing and harassing you until you pay the uttermost farthing. Therefore, os you love serenity of mind, as you love liberty, as you love sweet life itself, keep out of debt. Zt Made the Engineer Cry. Yes, hidecd, we have sotde queer incidents happen to us,” said tbe engineer. “I was running along ono afternoon pretty lively when I approached a little villagi where tho track cuts through tbe streets. I slacked up a little* but was still making good speed, ^rlicn suddenly, about twenty rods ahead of me, a little girl, not more than three years old, toddled on to tbe track. There wus no way to save her. It wos impossible to stop or even to slack much in that dis tauce, as my train was heavy and the grade descending. In ten seconds it would have been all over, and, after reversing and ap plying tho brake, I shut my eyes. I didn’t want to seo any As we slowed down my fireman stuck his head out of tbe eab win dow to eco what I’d r topped for, when be laughed and shouted to me, “Jim, look hers!’’ I looked, and there was a great big black Newfoundland dog bolding that little girl in his mouth, leisurely walking toward tbe bouse where she evidently belonged. She was kicking aud crying so that I knew she wasn’t hart, and the dog bad savtid her. My fireman thought it funny and kept on laugbiug, bnt I cried. I just couldn’t help It. I bare a little girl of my own at homo.”— Chicago Herald. Sleep. About one pint of air is inhaled at a breath. A person breathes stout 18 ttaes a minute during slee|)| or two and a quarter bogs* heads in so boor, or 18 hogsheads in a night. Every particle of air is used up in a room where there is no veniilatrvn, In eight hours, and tbs sir becomes so vitiated, that it is no longer fit for breath 1 ing In an hour or two. Hence tbe great Importance of vootilatlon If refreshing sleep Is to bo enjoyed. The bed chamber should bo on tbe second or third floor, aud its win* dows should face the east or south, so o« to have the drying and puri fying influences of sunlight. There should be no curtains to the bed or window*, nor garments hanging on the walls. Have uo heavy cover ing on the body, bat ouver tbo Iset and lower extremities abundantly, so that tbe blood is withdrawn from tbe bead and dreaming pre vented. Never go to bed with cold or damp feet Retire at a regular hour, not later than ten, and tire as soon as you wake in tbs morning, A remedy for balky borers, which works wall, is to pot a small stone or taml In Um horse’s ear. Generally tbs bores will start off at ones at a lively gait, unlres he balka from (aUgue. The sirls in Britany are not al lowed to sell their hair. In this country tbs girls don’t have to, as it’s a sell itself. Food for Thought.; If yon desire to be held wise, be so wiso as to bold yonr tongue. Trust not tbe praise of a friend nor the contempt of an enemy.: He who cultivates a taste for reading in hjs youth plants good seed. When credulity comes from the heart it docs no harm to tbe intel lect. Never build castles in tbe heir. They are ever liable to be over* thrown. The world is a comedy to those who think, a tragedy to those who feci. He who can conceal bis joy is greater than fio who can conceal his grieis. Much of the charity that begins at home is too feeble to get out of doors Ob, banish the tears of children! Continual rains upon the blossoms are hurtful. Old age has deformities enough of its own, do not fcdd to it the do. formity of vice. Our happiness and misery arc trusted to pur conduct, and made to depend upon it. It is easy to love our fellow-man. Do good to them, aud you will bo sure to love thero. You may depend upon it tbafe he is a good man whose inlimato friends nre all good. Poetry is tho utterance of truth, deep heartfelt truth. Tbe trao poet is very near the Oracle. The beam of tbe benevolent eye giveth value to the bounty which tbe hand dispenses. A miser grows rich by seeming poor; an extravagant man grow* poor by seeming rich. We are never made so ridiculous by the qualities wo have, as by those wo affect to have. He who is the most slow ia mak« ing a promise is tbo most faithful in the performance of it. Tho mao who can’t be angry is a fool; tbo mao who will not allow himself to bo is wise. lie who loses money loses much} be who loses a friend loses more; but be who loses his spiritq loses all. I** is a most dungerous habit to character to bo able to cork up raptures whenever raptures are tho rage. We cannot conquer fate snd m* cessity yet ws can yield to them ia such a manner as to be greater than if we could. Of all tbe anguish in the world there Is nothing like this,—tbo same of God w ithout tbe setae of nrarmos to him. Greater mischiefs happen oftener from meanness, folly and vanity, than from tbe greater sins of arera ice and ambition. Tbe heartiest, gladdest singing in this world is in Christian lands, in hearts to which Gbrist hat brought peace and hope. God’s comforts are no dreams. Ho would not put His seal on blank paper, not deceive His afflict ed ones that trust iu Him. Tbe death of a child occasions * passion of grief and frantic team, such as your end, brother reader, will nersr inspire. Poetry is the blossom snd fra grance of all human knowledge, human thoughts, human passions, emotions, language. Nothing is truly infamous bat wbat is wioked; and therefore •bsmt can never disturb on inno cent and virtuous mind. Truth—tbe open, bold, bones! truth—is always the wisest, always . the safest, for every one io any and all circumstances, , Whoever lends a greedy ear ter slanderous report la either himself of a radically bad disposition, or a. mere child io sense.
