The el ements, evidently, are doing their best to throw a wet blanket over the success of the deposition Uaiverselle, hut all in vain, to judge from the daily list of receipts, winch have av eraged since -iune 1, upwards of 80,- OUUjOUO iraucs. Even Ihe exorbitant demands of the .l’iri-iun hotel and restaurant keepers, who have joined as one man in a base conspiracy against the traveling public, fail to stem the daily increasing tide of stran gers, which threatens fairly to inun date the gay capita). What a curi ous study of nationalities such a world’s fair ailords! although just now tho representatives of every oth er country dwindle into insignificance before the overwhelming majority of English. The nation seems to have crossed the Channel en masse. Ib’oiii the prince of Wales, who runs over by special train every few days— his well-known partiality for the French metropolis, with its frivoli ties and sanx (/cm:, making him, so to speak, the patron saint of the .Exhi bition -down to the honest Yorkshire youth, wlio wonders t udibly in the ait -galleries, .if that is what they call a line picture, where the “streaks of p out ’ are “ ’all’’ as tlti kas his ’and.” The Englishmen, with their imper turbable John Emil solidity, and sto lidity, not to mention their conspicu ously chocked clothing, are as unmis takanle, though not half as attrac tive, as the English women, who, not withstanding their awkward walk, are ready refreshing to look at. They impress one always as having healthy minds in healthy bodies, with their, fresh complexions and Ilyaway -brimmed hats, under which the hair is smoothly brushed back ami gathered into a tight little knot behind The Parisian populace must, of ne cessity, have some idol to bow down to. A few montus ago it was the Spanish students and their mad pranks, and since the opening of the exhibition Ragland's heir apparent has t> > rj prone favorite. But every lesser luminary begins to pale before the orb which hag just appeared iu the Er-Tarn her >n, and N isser Eddiu, Khali of Persia, is, like his national .mas, the Lion and the Ri sing Sue. Five years ago he appeared ou the streets of Paris iu the gorge mis attire of some fabled monarch of the E st. S j resplendent were his jewels that tho effect in the sunlight is do embed as having been positive ly painful to the eye. At that time lie launched into the full tide if Parisian gaieties, and is not above the suspicion of having frequented the Jardiu Mabille and the cafeschan tanls. But now, renouneng the pomps and vanities, His Majesty travels incognito ; which, however, does not signify th it he is not pub licly aud officially received. Having adopted, for the time being, the garb of European civilization he is devo ting himself to a cartful study of its results. He visits the Exhibition al most daily and is going the rounds of the government schools aud mili tary establishments of Paris. lie is, and is said successfully, try ing to infuse some of the fresh, ac tive blood of Western progress into die sluggish veins of the Persian em pire. It is to be feared though that he will scarcely be able to keep up with the forward march of humanity if he persists iu encumbering himself with his thirty-eight wives. ' But we shall not lag- behind as well if we do not hasten to follow the rest of the world to the < xhibitiou grounds. There ar > numerous ways of gi tlir.g there. Suppose we take you in the spirit, I in the body, on board one of the little Seine steam boats known as miucher, which ply up and down the river from 8 in the morning till dusk. Iu pleasant weather, a more delightful trip is not to be found. Here, as in every ar rangement. iu this great c ty th it per fect system reigns, which seems, to the uuiniiiated, like its absence Two men only have charge of a boat capable of carrying four hundred persons, and accidents occur seldom if ever. We glide along almost uoisely under the m agnifi cent stone bridges, which span the Seine at intervals the whole distance. Here and there we touch at a landing pi ic.. A plank is thrown across. Smm leave ; others take thier place. In a moment we shove off again. No confusion or delay, and no shrill, car-reiulmg whistle. Ou weekdays we pay three sous for one trip, on Sum (ays and holidays live.- Lauding at the Pout d’Austerlitz, we find ourselves withiug a few steps of the mim Exhibition building, on the Champ de Mars. A good, if slightly sloppy, intro GAINESVILLE, GA., FRIDAY MORNING. JULY 26. 1878. dnetion in the vast Cosmopolitan Labyrinth is a preliminary stroll I down the Street of the Nations, rnn : ihng between art galleries on the left and the international section o! , the main building on the right. Each nation being represented bv a | characteristic facade, the whole not | only a comprehensive idea of the ex hibiting countries, but also of the space occupied by each. But beware of beepming too interested, for one incautious step lauds you in a mud puddle. We noticed a great deal of uote-takiug under these trying cir cumstances, which might appropri ately be called cursory. Tbe United Kingdom heads the list and usurps here, as in the interior, the lion s share of space. The first in order, solid and trim, rather than ornamental, is a one story brick cottage for the accommodation of the English jury. This is follow ed by the much larger two-story pa vdhou of the Priuce of Wales. An other of our cherished illusions gone ! The abode set apart for the future ruler of the vast domains over which tho sun never sets, is constructed of plebeian sandstone. The invis ible “ divinity which doth hedge a j king,” seems to have been consider- j ed insufficient—an l no wonder in these degeuerite, socialistic days—to keep out the crowds of curious vis itors. A stout iron railing before the door of the pavillion debars the en trance to all not previously provided with cards of admisiou from the Eng lish Commissioner. A necessary precaution, for the completely-fur nished apartments, consisting of a dining, reading, sitting and bed rooms, are strewn with rare and cost ly knick-knacks. The celebrated Doulton A Lam berth pottery works have erected an elaborate little structure of red and yellow bricks, ornamento t with rouud, shining plates of blue enamel. It seems to aim at what the old lady called the “ironical gothieal” style of architecture. Two models of old English country-houses complete the long line of English facades. Tho second, with tho heavy, overhanging upper story, and the curious, small square window panes, represents a cottage of tho time of Queeu Eliza beth. And now comes, most appropriate ly, America. As we despair of find ing a more home-like stopping-place, we will take up our quarters right here under the spread eagle until next time.— Lillian, in iMroit Free Press. A Tower for the Worship of the Un known God. I am going to tell you of a trip to the mountain of Texcosingo, famous iu Aztec days us being the pleasure garden and retreat of the Indian po et-king, Nt zuhuaeoyolt. From Tex coco the trip is wildly picturesque and grandly beautiful. The cu riously constructed bath of Ntz ahuacoyolt is cut from a solid block of granite overhanging the brow of the hill. The block has a smooth surface several yards square and dropping from its center is a circu lar basin some three or four feet deep and a dozen or more in circumfer ence. Out of one side is cut a seat for the ac *ommodation of the bather, while rising from the surface a littlo back is another, having a perfect chair form, with a rest off one side of tbe at m. Protecting the out er side of this iu a wall, a part of the same rock, into which seats have been cut, and various little niches iu the form of miniature steps, which might have been used by the old In dian monarch as a receptacle for his toilet paraphernalia. Following along the still well pre served path, we came to a chamber cut into the side of the hill, now un roofed and in ruins, tho lloor being strewn with debris. At the end of this vaulted chamber was a raised platform a foot in height and several feet square, hewn from solid rock, and on each corner back of this,were niches chiseled out, with fragments of cement still clinging to the sides. We have since learned that between these, above tbe platform, there still remained at the beginning of the present century a large calendar stone which was later destroyed by the neighboring Indians in se reh of treasure. This curious work must have cost its builders a vast amount of labor. i Separating himself from the cares if his kingdom, Nez ihuacoyolt came for retirement to his beautiful moun tain, and here, four times every day for forty days, on bended knees, he offered prayer aud incense to “the all-powerful God, hidden aud un known.” It is said that in answer to these earnest appeals a vision ap peared to one of his servants in at tendance, directing him to go at once to his master with the comfortitig as surance that the unseen God had been pleased to accept his prayers and offerings, ami would avenge him by the hands of his sou, Axoquatziu, a boy of only 17 years. The king could not accept the super-natural vision, which was, however, fulfilled. Nezahuacoyolt, upon hearing of the fulfillment of what he had considered a false prophecy, retired in humilia tion to the garden of his palace, and kneeling on the ground, gave thanks to the unknown God for his sigual benefits, promising to build a temple to his house, to abstain from idola trous worship and human sacrifices, and to alone acknowledge the supre macy of the unknown God. In com pliance with his vow, he built a tower uine stories high, the interior of which he garnished with gold and precious stones, and the exterior he covered with black cement, embel lished with stars. The workmanship was of the most expensive order. In this superb tower were stationed men, whose duty it was, at certain boors of the day, to strike upon plates of tine metal, at the sound of which the monarch fell upon Ins knees in prayer. Lord Beaconstield arrived in Eng land from the Berlin Congress on Tuesday. A great assemblage of oeo ple awaited his coming and gave him an ovation. Street-cars by Air Power While Professor Edison is working out his phonautograpb, and study ing the effects therefrom, the Second Vvenue Kailroad lias been perfecting a means of obviating the difficulties of the Metropolitan Elevated Hoad. A month or two ago t:e officers of the Second Avenue Company successful ly experimented with a car made un der the auspices of the Pneumatic Engine Tramway Company. The sys'em is based on the fact that at mospheric air is capable of being compressed into very small compass, and giving a reservoir of energy re presenting the mechanical force em ployed in compressing it. This be ing liberated and applied to an im proved engine, the force can be used as a motive power, aud be under the perfect command of even an inexperi enced driver after a few trials. So satisfactory were the results of the experiments that iu a few weeks half a dozen cars will be running in Second aviune from Ninety-sixty to One Hundred and Twenty-uinth street without visible means of mo tion. The eir used for the experimental trips last April has been remodeled, an.* will start again with passengers regularly'next Monday. As fast as possible the whole line of railroad will be supplied with rapid transit, at a speed of forty miles an hour, if necessary, from Harlem to the City Llaii. The old cars will be utilized, and the horse service aud the dan gers attendant on steam done away with at a small cost and great saving. At Kerr’s machine shop, Fifty-fifth street aud First avenue, is a work ing model of the car. Tho foreman of the shop, iu answer to an inquiry, said: Hebert Hardie, of Glasgow, and John James, of Edinburg, are nmv employed by the Company on the utilizitioa of the old street cars. A citizm of New York met these two engineers in Glasgow'last year, and on his representations they came to this country. They intended to give Scotland the benefit of their com pressed air service, but America will first reap the advantages. In De cember last they built their first car at the Depot of the Second Avenue Railway'Company, audit was pro uouuced very sucessful.” “Does it make noise in transit?” was asked. “Very little,’’was the answer. “It is comparatively noiseless. If the Metropolitan Lino were to run these carriages on tlieir road the doctors and Sixth avenue residents would not have much to complain of. Besides, as ei oh car lias its own motor, and as the Elevated runs threo carriages and an engine, 75 per cent, of the noise would be at once obviated by one car running at a time. That is, of course, granting that the noise arising from each was equal to what it is on the Metropolitan lino. Cars then could easily lie run one at a time every half miimto instead of every three minutes. Tho pneumatic force has never been used to c.irry r passen gers by wholesale before. It has, however, been found of great service in England. By a tubular applica tion the General Post-office, Lon don, transmits its mail bags from place to plae?. These heavy weights are uhot along tubes on the princi ple of the air-gun. Often one or two persons have safely ventured to be transported by this means.” “Will you explain the workings?’ was the next question. Taking a tin model iu his hand, the engineer pointed out two long compressed air receivers of steel, t hat are placed under the seats of the ear, and six for idling under the end plat forms. “The eight," ho said, “are connected by cylinders, and are fixed inside of iron frames between the wheels of the car. These are connect ed with an engine situated uuder the ear, between the crank axles and wheels. The air is pumped inside the receiver by a rubber hose attach ed to a compressing engine at the de pots. Anew 500-horse power en gine, especially made for the purpose, will take about one minute to give each car its supply of motive power. This will be less time than is often taken to change horses. The driver stands in the same position as at pre sent to work the starting, reversing and braking gear that is of the old locomotive style. It is a lever, and can be handled by any one, and not necessarily an engineer. In running down an incline the engine is trans formed into an air-pump and creates new power.” “Will there be any pecuniary sav ing?” “Considerable. Mr. Ilardie, the Chief Engineer, has calculated from published statistics that the present cost of horse-shoeing, feed, harness repairing, stable expenses, and re placing of horses alone, amount up in New York to over two million dol lars per annum. To run a two-horse street-car it costs on an average, all told, $lO (50 a day. ’To run the 1,- 500 horse-cars now used cost nearly $0,000,000. The entire expenses of the pneumatic system would be a little over $2,000,000. The total saviug would bo somewhere abjut $3,500,000. It is calcu'ated that the pneumatic system can be worked at least thirty pi r cent, cheaper than steam.” “What other advantages will there be in the proposed method?” “Very many. Animals would not be excited no the road by the whistling and puffing of the steam cars. The guys, pillars and other paraphernalia of the elevated roads would be need less. Where these now exist they could be utilized, as well as the sur face street rails There would be no escape of hot steam or blazing cin ders to set awnings on fire. It would do away with the aroma of horse railroads and of coal-gas with its sul phuric vapors. The terrible cata logue of diseases cited by the physi cians as probable to result from the noise ot the Metropolitan would be entirely obviated. After all, fifty per cent, saviug on horso-power and thirty on steam would be the most important advantage to be derived from the pneumatic tramway sys tem.” Sunstroke. The following report of the Sani tary Commission of the New 7 York Board of Health upon sunstroke has been approved and published by tbe board; “Sunstroke is caused by excessive heat, and especially if the weather is ‘muggy.’ It is more apt to occur on the second, third or fourth day of a heated term than on the first. Los 9 of sleep, worry, excitement, close sleeping rooms, debility, abuse of stimulants, predispose to it. It is more apt to attack those working in the sun, and especially between the hours of eleven o’clock iu the morn ing and four o’clock iu the afternoon. Oq hot days wear thin clothing. Have as cool sleeping rooms as possi ble. Avoid loss of sleep and all un necessary fatigue. If workiug in doors, aud where there is artificial heat —laundries, etc, see that the room is well ventilated. “If working iu the sun, wear a light hat (not black, as it absorbs heats;, straw, etc., and put inside of it on the head a wet cloth on a large green leaf ; frequently lift the hat from the head aud see that the cloth is wet. Do not check perspiration, but jlrink what w r ater you need to keep it up, as perspiration prevents the body from being overheated. Have whenever pioseible, au addition al shade, as a thin umbrella, when walking, a canvass or btoad cover when working in the sum. When, much fatigued do not go to work, but be excused from work, especially af ter II o’clock in the morning ou very hot d|iys, if the work is iu the sun. If a feeling of latigue, dizziness, headache, or exhaustion occurs, cease work immediately 7, lie down iu a shade and cool place ; apply cold cloths t> and pour cold water over head and neck. If any one is over come by the heat, send immediately for the nearest good physician. While, waiting for the physician give the person cool drinks of water, or cold black tea, or cold coffee, if able to swallow. If the skin is hot and dry, sponge wither pour cold water over the body and limbs, aud apply to the head pounded ice wrapped iu a towel or other cloth. If there is no ice at hand, keep a cold doth on the head and pour cold water on it a9 well as on tho body. If the person is pale, very feeble, and pulse faint, let him inhale ammonia for a few seconds, or give him a teaspoonful of aromatic spirits of ammonia in two tablespoonsful of water, with a littlo sugar.” Howard draws Blood. A dispatch from Howard, dated Head of Birch Creek, July Sth, says that, ho found the Indians at the head of Butler Oreok, and on that day be advanced tw 7 o columns, one under Throckmorton, of two compa nies of .irtillery, one infantry, and a few volunteers; the other under Ber nard, seven companies of cavalry aud twenty 11 ibbins scouts; Howard accompanied tho latter. Bernard’s scouts notified him of tho vicinity of the hostiles, when the cavalry moved forward at a trot over three hills, each over a mile in ascent. The In dians were strongly posted on a, rockv crest. One company left with a pack train; others were deployed and advanced handsomely under a heavy tire. The enemy were driven from its position to another height, in the rear of a greater elevation and crowned with, a natural defense of lava beds. For twenty minutes this position was also stormed from the different sides at once, aud a rapid pursuit commenced of llying Indians, who abandoned horses, provisions, ammunition and camp material. The hostiles made for thick timber crowning the Blue llidge and made another stand, but were again dis lodged and pushed four or five miles further into the mountains. Rough country and tho great exhaustion of men and horses caused a cessation of the pursuit for the day. In the en gagement five of the enlisted men were wounded and about twenty horses killed. It is impossible to state the loss of tho enemy. Their women, children aud best horses were moved before the fight began, apparently in the direction ox .the Grand Rjnde, as the hostiles lied in that direction. Sowing the "Winds. We wonder if it ever occurred to the higher law party of the North that, the examples set, when the South was forcibly deprived of mill ions of dollars worth of property without remuneration, could be fol lowed successfully by others, and that iu sowing the wind they would reap the whirlwind ? If superior numbers and force of arms gave the North the right to deprive the South of its property, it follows that supe rior numbers and force of arms give the millions of white slaves at the north the right to deprive the moneyed aristocracy of theirs. Since this eu vious class of political vampires used the working men as instruments for cue oppression and robbery of the South,.and taught them that theirs was God’s service, it will be no won der if they turn those teachings and experience to their own advantage by the confiscation of tueir oppres sor’s goods and the enactment of a bloody revolution. Before tho abolishment of slavery the South furnished an effectual bar rier against any formidable attack upon the government or the rights of property. The Southern States were the very balance wh el which, by its conversation and freedom from “strikes” and popular uprisings, ren dered impossible any very serious interference with property or politi cal rights. Now, however, a prece dent has been established, men have been taught that might is right, and the time will come, unless relief is soon afforded by wise legislation and timely remedy for the real grievan ces of the starving millions, when some bold, unscrupulous man will head two million of tranipi or un employed men and Mexicaiize our country. Tim’s Kit. It surprised the shiners and news boys around the Post-office the other day to see “Limpy Tim” come among them iu a quiet way, to hear him say: “Boys, I waut to sell my kit. Heres two brushes, a hull box of blacking, a good stout box, aud the outfit goes for two shillings !” “Goiu’ away, Tim? ’ queried one. “Not ’zactly, boys, but I want a quarter the awfullest kind just now.” “Goin’ on a ’ecursion ?” asked an other. “Not to-day, but I must ha\ 7 e a quarter,” he auswered. One of the lads passed over tbe change and ’took the kit, and Tim walked straight to the counting room of a daily paper, out down his mon ey, aud eaid: “I guess I kin write if you’ll give roe a pencil.” With slow-moving fingers he wrote a death notice It went iuto the pa per almost as he wrote it, but you might not have seen it. He wrote: “Died—Litul Ted—of scarlet fe ver; aigod three yeres. Funeral to morrer; gone up to Hevin; left won brother.” “Was it your brother?” asked the cashier.

Reports received by Surgeon Gen eral Woodworth, of the Marine hos pital service, show that during the week ending July Gth there were 93 deaths from yellow 7 fever at Havaua and G from small pox, a large in crease in tho former aud a decrease in the latter disease. Advices re ceived from Matanzvs show an in crease of yellow fever to have spread to nearly all the vessels in port, though but few deaths occurred. At Key West, up to the 10th iu9t, , 5 eases of yellow fever. The first threo cases were iu shipping from Havana, and the last two were not connected with the shipping. The city is healthy aud t here are no fears of au epidemic. The report of the board of medical officers of the navy desig nated to investigate the causes of the appearance of yellow fever on the Vermont, at New York, lias been re ceived at the navy department. The board is of o union that it originated from the ballast of the bark Juniata Clara, which left Havana May Ist. This ballast, quarry clippings and sand, was deposited on the dock on either side of tho Vermont, about one hundreds yards distant from her. It contained the germ of the disease, which was aggravated iuto fever by the excessive heat. No new cases of yellow fever have been reported in Brooklyn, aud the three sailors ou board of tho U. S. snip Vermont, who are down with tho malady, are convalescing. It is believed the spread of the disease has bsen checked. Aii Arkansas Cow. The yield of milk from northern dairy cows is incredible to the people in regions where cattle are raised mostly for beef and hides. Judge Grant was in Little Rock, Arkansas, in attendance on the Uni ted States Court. One morning he saw a farmer with a slouch hat, and a genuine butternut suit, trying to sell a cow in the market there. It was a large, long horned animal, and a planter was informing a man that the cow would give four quarts of milk a day, if fed well. Up stepped the Judge. “What do you ask for that cow ?” “About S3O. She’ll give live quarts of milk, if you feed her well,’’ replied the planter, and he proceeded to de scribe her good qualities. S tid the Judge: “I have cows on my farm, not much more than half as big as your cow, which give twen ty to twenty-five quarts of milk a dav.” The planter eyed the Judge sharp ly for a moment, as if trying to re member whether he had ever seen him before or not, and then asked: “Stranger where do you live? ’ “My home is in lowa.’’ ‘ Yes, stranger, I don t dispute it. There was heaps of sogers from lo wa down here during the war, and, stranger, they was the all firedest liars in the whole Yankee army. Mebbe you mougkt be an officer in some of them regiments?” Wliat is t!ie Bible Like ' It is like a large, beautiful tree, which bears sweet fruit for those that are hungry, and affords shelter and shade for pilgrims on their way to the kingdom of heaven.

A wise son uiaketh a glad father, and a prompt paying subscriber caus eth au editor to bogh. Folly is a joy that is destitute of wisdom, but delinquent subscribers cause smYering in tnc house of news paper makers. . j All the way-i of mau are clear ia his own eyes: except the way the de linquent subscriber has in no: paying for his newspaper. Better is a little righteousness than a thousand subscribers who cheat the printer Better is the poor man that walk eth in integrity, and pays his sub scription, than the rich mau who telleth the collector to call agaiu. Judgments are prepared for scorners, stripes for the backs of fools, and lasting punishment for him who payeth not for his newspa per. Hope deferred maketh the heart sick, is a proverb sadly realized by the publisher who sends out bills. A righteous man hateth lying, hence a publisher wS&'®d wroth against a subscriber 1 who promises to call and settle on the inonC w an( * calleth not. Beautiful Allegory. Mr. Crittenden, of Kentucky, was at one time defending a mau who had been indicted for a capital of fense. After an elaborate and powerful defense, he closed his effort with the following striking aud beau tiful allegory : ‘•When God in his eternal council conceived the thought of man’s crea tion, he called to him the three min isters who constantly wait upon the throne—justice, truth aud mercy — and thus addressed thorn : Shall we make man ?” Then said justice, O, God, make him not, lor he will trample upon thy laws. Truth made answer also, God, make him not, for he will pol lute Thy sactuaries. But mercy, dropping upon her knees and look ing up through her tears, exclaimed, O, God, make him, I will watch over him with my care through all the dark paths which he may have to tread. Then God made man, and said to him, O, man, thou art the child of mercy ; go and deal merciful ly with thy brother.” The jury, when he had finished, were bathed in tears, and against evi dence, and what mint have Coai* over their own convictions, brought in a verdict of not gu lty. Gen. Toombs says of G >m nanism ; No, we have nothing to 1 ar at ent from it. Bit if the Government be unjust and laws oppress!v ,C on munism may come, aud I say let :i come.

You ask nie if S tcial ism is a species of Communism The former in France aud Germany has been practiced aud agitated among the intellects and cultured men of the realm. Why Robespierre, you know was a gentleman, and even Nobeling, who attempted to kill Em peror William, is a scholar. Com munism, on the contrary, begins on the lower walks, and is generally agitated among laborers and disaffec ted people of the poorer classes. They are both the outgrowths of un just systems of legislative and to rani cal administration. An intelligent farmer of DesM fines county has invented a henophoue, modeled on the principles of the telephone, by which one old leliable hen occupying a central olli -e in the heuery sits on all the nests ab mt the establishment, leaviug o lor fowls free to lay eggs, scratch and cackle. As soon as anew nest contains enough eggs it is connected with the office by a copper wire, and the busi ness is settled. The only trouble with the machine is that it sits so hard it hatchei out the porcelain uest eggs with the others, so that one chick in every nest is born with glass eyes, and the farmer has to buy and train a dog to lead it around. Th s makes it expensive. The following special telegram seems to indicate that there is at least one cool place on the continent: Lookout Mountain, July 20 — John Smith, G. T.

Stewart, the millionaire, once came to the conclu sion that, although advertising was a good thing as a ladder, it was of no great benefit to him, as his name sold the goods. Asa test, one de partment only of his establishment was advertised. Its business ever topped that of the others so imme diately and bo largely that Mr. Stew art concluded that to get the full power of his name it must appear in printer’s ink. His advertising mana gers say, “from that time he adver tised more largely than ever in the papers.' ‘ Floating Pe&thiJß. Newspapers are used for teit booktf in western schools.

Bless him by your loving words and acts. Lord Shaftesbury, while presiding at, a meeting of one of the London Charites, said that he had lately lost a servaut who had been in his family over fifty four years, and that he had still in his house a nurse who had served him forty-nine years. This person, he said, ruled almost su preme in the house, and any member of his family would as soon think of taking a leap into the Red Sea as of retiring to rest without bidding the old servant good night. Reputation and character are lwo things which must never be confoun ded. The one is external, the other is internal. The one is determined by what other people say of ns; the other is our utmost and real self. The one may vary with the caprices of the people; the other remains un affected by the breath of applause or the mask of hypocrisy. Sometimes a man, from certain circumstances, may have a very good reputation, though his character is radically bad, and there have been cases in which the noblest man in point of charac ter have baen, just because they were acting out their principles, m very poor repute.
