IHA Thomas?Ule Timej gi?es the fallowing dfc*

but baa never found anything to check its rapid
growth until now. The doctor has the veritable

Died Yesterday.
Every day is written this little sen'ence: “ Died
yesterday,” so-and-so. Every day a flower ia
plucked from some sunny home—a breach is
made in some happy circle —a jewel stolen from
some treasury of love.
Each day, Jrom the summer fields of life, some
harvest disappears—yea, every honrsome sentinel
falls from the ramparts into eternity. Even aa we
write the funeral of one “died yesterday,” winds
like a winter shadow along the streets.
“Died yesterday.” Who died? Perhaps it waa
a gentle babe, sinless as an angel, pare as the
■ephyr’a hymn—one whose laugh was as the gush
ol summer rills loitering in the bower ol roses—
whose life was but a perpetual litany—a May-time
crowned with the passion flowers that never fade.
Or mayhap it was a youth hopeful, happy and
generous, whose path was hemmed by flowers,
with not a serpent iurkiDg underneath—one
whose soul psted for communion with the great
and good and reached for the garden in the dia
tance. But the heart ls still now; he “cjted |tp>-
terday."
“Died yesterday.*' A young girl pure as the
orange flowers that clasped her forehead, was
stricken down as she stood at the altar; and from
the strong aisles of the temple, she was borne to
the “garden of the slumberers.”
A tall, crowned man girt with the halo of vic
tory, and at the day’s close, under his own vine
and tig tree, fell to dust even as the anthem upon
his lips; and he, too, was laid “ where the fore
fathers of the rude hamlet sleep.”
Ao aged patriarch, bowed with age and cares,
even as he looked ont upon the distant hills for
the coming of the angel hosts, sank into dream
less slumber, and on his door post is written:
‘ Died yesterday.”
“Died yesterday.” Daily men, women and
children are passing away, and hourly in some
graveyard the sod is fluug npon the dead. As of
ten in the morn we find tome flower that
blushed sweetly in the sunset was withered up
lorever, so daily, when we rise from the bivouac
to stand against our posts, we miss some brother
soldier whose cherry cry iu the sieges and strag
gles of the past has been as fire from heaven upon
our hearts.
Each day some pearl drops from the jewel
thread of friendship—some lyre to which we have
been wont to listen has been hushed forever. But
wise is he who mourns not the pearl and music
lost, tor life with him shall pass away silently as
an Eastern shadow from the hille, and death be a
triumph and gain.
Cuffee as a Collegian.—The New York World
contains the following sensible remarks on .the
above questions:
“ in this season oi College Commencements the
man and brother is by no means silent. He comes
before the public at Hampton in Virginia, not In
the character of Mr. Bones or Mr. Johnson for
the purpose of discussing difficult conundrums, as
has been his immemorial custom, but as the col
lege graduate, swelling with the pride of intellec
tual achievement, to deliver sophomoric addresses
as it behooves Dim to do in his new condition. In
these the man and brother says many bright and
hopeful things lor the iuteliectnal future of his
race, and many unkind things ot his quondam op
pressors. It is natural and commendable that the
Hampton graduate should bear off his diploma
with rejoiclDg; but that he, of all his colored
brethren, should speak unkindly of the beuighted
white people of his State is hardly just or com
mendable, though it may be natural. He should
remember that the while people of Virginia have
done more for the education of his race than has
been done in any other Btate. For while his car
pet-hag friends further South have generally pock
eted the n onoy provided for his education, a fair
allowance of the school fund has in Virginia been
honestly and regularly applied in his behalf. Be
sides, the Legislature ot Virginia only recently
made to the colored institution at Hampton the
free gift of SIOO,OOO, this amount being one-third
of the land script allotted to the State for educa
tional purposes. But perhaps the ingratitude of
the Hampton graduate merely results from being
taught that the things which have been done for
h’m by the State of his birth are as nothing as
compared with the things which must be done by
the Government whose ward he has become. For
the collegiate Cuffee at Hampton is encouraged to
believe that Congress at its next session will make
such liberal appropriations ol educational land as
will henceforth enable the colored youth to in
dulge unendingly in the innocent pleasure of go
ing to college and making commencement ad
dresses—albeit those addresses be written by other
than the colored persons who deliver them.
“ When Cuffee comes before the public iu this
new and startling role there are doubtless many
maliciously disposed persons to say that he has
gone through college very much as did the afore
•aid Mr. Johnson, who merely entered the aca
demic halls by the front door and waa inconti
nently kicked out at the back door. But that
curriculum belonged to a less enlightened age,and
the colored gentlemen of the present day really
does go through college much less abruptly aDd
muoh more laboriously than of old. He is said to
apply himselft to algebra and Latin and Greek—
studies Which have been a constant source of
trihu’.atim to the ingenious youth of the while
rano for many ceuteries. We decline to ata e how
cuffee lares in these difficult fields of intellectual
effort. * * * * #
“ Iu the South there are some half dozen “colle
giate” institutions, similar but to tne one
at Hamp:op. These may perhaps ultimately do
fpmethihg for cuffee; but his best friends will re
gret that they did not give him less of douljla
Latin and Greek, and more of t*g orthodox plough
and spade, in the curriculum through which he
passes before he ascends the rostrum and delivers
the commencement address.
J. feTE'ABV Mill and His Wife.—A touching
epieode of the life of J. Slewart Mill was the won
derful love he bore his wi e, and the tenderness
with which he cherished her memory. He
his home iu the §qpth ot Trance, near hey grave,
on 4 aII G devotion in his great peart centered in
the little mound that covered her dust. How loyal
was this love, is shown in the dedication of his
haok of es*aya ** On Liberty. There is no*hing
more touching and manly in the annals of litera
ture. It reads: “To the beloved and deplored
memory of her who was the inspirer, and, in part,
the author, of all that is best in my writings the
friend and wife whose sense af truth sr<j
right was my strongest incitement, and whose
approbation was my chief reward—l dedicate this
Volume, Like all that I have written for many
years, it belongs as much to het as to me; but the

and unassisted by her ml} hut unrivalled wisdom."
?oo soon ivr us,' but not for them, we may now
write above the graves of this wonderful pair the
old Virgilian epitaph, “ Lovely in their lives, in
death they were not divided.”— Ex.

The Eaib of the American Institute.— From
The South, of New York, we clip the following:
“ The forty-eecood Exhibition of the American
Institute of the city of New York, will be held in
the Exhibition Buildings this year, commencing
September 10.
“ We hope to 6ee these exhibitions made truly
representative of the entire country. To be so,
or even only approximately so. the products of
South, as well as North and vVest, must be dis
played, and in proportions consistent with the ex
tent and importance of the producing ares. Some
time ago occasion was taken iu this journal to
draw attention to the lamentable absence of ex
hibits at the last show held at New Y ork, to the
fact that literally nothing whatever coming from
the South was shown at all. One has only take
the map of this Continent and observe the geo
graphical dimensions of the South, whether it be
in the vast pine country, sweeping round the
southern extremity, or Florida reaching a giant
arm to the Indies, or Texas, an empire in itself;
to note the serpentine course of that mighty river
that rolls southward to the sea, whose tributary
net-work holdß the heart of the country in its
grasp, to be convinced of the vast importance of
the section, and remembering the prodigal luxuri
ance of the semi-tropical climes, to feel how rich
mast be the quota that the South might con
tribute. And yet in the show of 1872, from all
this vast region, not a single product! For all
that this so-called exhibition of America’s resour
ces, industry and inventive genius had to show
ot it, the South might have been only a vast sandy
desert, witnout an inhabitant.
“ Everywhere are noticed the wonderful changes
taking place in all the territory whereto these
people gravitate. They bring their energy, their
industry, and often capital to make our idle fields
productive. The majority of them, for want of
information, are swept into the current that is
rolling westward. Few go South. The reason
for this is that while every possible inducement
has been held forth by men interested In the appre
cla'ion of Western lands.lhe South has been inert.”
Do Fairs Benefit Farmers !-Yes, sir! Just
af'er the fatigues of a laborious season we come
days in visiting and getting acquainted with each
other, and having an old-fashioned harvest jubilee
—that pays ; next, to try and improve the stock
in our country, which we have done—and that
pays; and give our good wives and daughters a
chance to show their skill in fancy work, or in
fixing np things for the culinary department, fit
to tempt the palates of lordly men, thereby prov
ing they are deserving of becoming the worthy
partners of the best men—and that pays; or to
go back home feeling jolly and good natured,
without a cent in mine pocket, but fully deter
mined to beat somebody nest time—and that
pays.
But for a very small part of a man to go and
take a grade bull and .jow him as a full blood
and get beat—then you don’t get pay; or to go
Intending to take all the premiums aud gat none,
and then go home mad, feeling that all your
friends were on the other side—that won’t pay;
or to go to a fair, believing you are the centre of
atrractiou, and to find others there more popular
than you are—that won’t pay.
Statistics or Population.— Of the great
centres of humanity throughout the globe, there
are nine having a population exceeding one mill
ion souls, coming in the following order; London,
8,231,000; Soochow, 2,000,000; Paris, 1,850,000;
Pekin, 1,648,080; Teddo, 1,554,000; Canton, 1,-
236,000; Constontinoble, 1,075,000; Siangtan, in
the province of Hunan, 1,000,000; and Tehan tchan
foo, in the piovince of Fokien, 1,000,000. Al
though London ranks first, the Chinese empire
can boast f more populous cities than all the
civilised countries of the West. The number of
cities possessing a population of from half a mil
-lonto a million is twelve, namely: New York,
Vienna, Berlin, Hang kaow, Philadelphia, St. Pe
tersburg, Bombay, Calcutta, Fouchow, Tehehiug,
Bangkok and Kioto. Twenty cities have a popu
lation of trom 800,000 to 400,000 Inhabitants;
thirty-three of from SCO,OOO to 300,000, and ninety
of from 100,000 to 200.000 inhabitants. Europe,
alone, possesses one huudred and seventy one
cities containing more than 50,000 inhabitants, at
me bead of which stand London, Paris, Constan
tinople, Vienna, Berlin and St. Petersburg,
Homh and ITS Quben—There Is probably not
an anperverted man or woman living who does
not feel that the sweetest consolations and best
rewards of life are fonnd in the loves and delights
of home. There are very few who do not feel
themselves indebted to the influence* that clus
tered around their cradles for whatever good
there may be in their characters and conditior.
Home, based upon Christian marriage, is toevi.
dent an institution of God, that a man must be
come profane before be can deny it. Wherever
it is planted, there stands a bulwark ot the state.
Wherever it is pure and true to the Christian idea,
there Uvea au institution conservative of all the
nobler instincts of society.
Of this realm woman is the queen. It takes its
cue and hue from her. If she is in ihe nest sense
womanly—U she is true and tender, loving and
heroic, patient and self-devoted, she consciously
and unconsciously organizes and puts iu opera
tion a set of influences that do more to mould the
destiny of the nation than any man, uncrowned
by power of eloquence, can possibly effect The
men of the nation are what mothers nuke them,
as a rale, and the voice that those men speak in
the expression of power is the voice of the wo
hors and bred them. There can be no
substitute for this. There is no other possible
way in which the women of the nation can or
ganine their influence and power that will tell SO
beneficially upon society and the State.
