ODUM AND ENDS.
Gold is the fool’s curtain which hides
all his defects from the world.
There is no fault in poverty, but the
miuds that think so aro faulty.
Mature your mind with great thoughts.
To believe ia the heroic makes heroes.
A contemporary wants to know, since
w-or-k is pronounced wirlc, why p-o-r-k
is uot called pirk ?
He who spends all his time in sports is
like one who wears nothing but fringes,
and cats nothing but sauces.
It is the pale passions that are the fier
cest; it is the violence of the chill that
gives the measure of the fever.
When a man is hideously ugly, the
only safety is in glorying in it. Let
him boldly claim it as a distinction.
The harsh, hard world neither secs,
nor tries to see, men’s hearts; but wher
ever there is the opportunity of evil,
supposes that evil exists.
Goodnoss of heart is man’s best trea
sure, his brightest houor, and noblest
acquisition. It is that rayof the Divinity
which dignifies humanity.
Herodotus informs us that the ancient
Persians had a custom of devising their
political schemes when inebriated, and
of executing them when sober.
Great efforts from great motives is
the best definition of a happy life. The
easiest labor is a burthen to him who
has no motives for performing it.
Anew proverb—Blessed is the wo
man who compoundeth a pudding in
silence, for she is more to bo envied
than sho who niaketh a tart reply.
A middle-sized boy, writing a com
position on “Extremes,” remarked that
we should endeavor to avoid extremes,
especially those of wasps and bees.”
The word love, in the Indian language,
is “schemlendamourtchwagcr.” How
nicely it would sound, whispered softly
in a lady’s ear—“l schemlendamourtch
wager you.”
Who sedulously attends, pointedly
asks, calmly speaks, coolly answers, and
ceases when he has no more to say, is
in possession of some of the best re
quisites of man.
The created world is but a small
parenthesis in eternity, and a short in
terposition for a time, between such a
state of duration as was before it, and
may be after it.
There is no virtue that .adds so noble
a charm to the finest traits of beauty as
that which exerts itself iu watching
over the tranquility of an aged parent.
There arc no tears that give so noblo a
lustre to the cheek of innocence as the
tears of filial sorrow.
It may be justly said that the pride
that apes humility is the most objection
able, as in addition to the bad qualities
inherent in a false unfounded estimate
of self, it super adds that of hypocrisy
—and no combination can bo more odi
ous than that of hypocrisy with pride.
How to Cure a Balky Horse. —lt
is Bimply to place your hand over the
horse’s nose and shut ofl his wind until
he wants to go, and then let him go. So
says one who states that he has long
tried it. The remedy is simple, al
ways at hand, and a merciful one to
the beast. Try it.
A gold miner in Pike’s Peak took his
gun and strayed a short distance from
the camp, and shot a cub, not observing
at the same time the old hear, which
was near at hand to avenge the death
of hey offspring. The hunter approach
ed his game with an exultant air, glow
ing in his success, and anticipating the
astonishment of his companions to see
him march into their midst with an am
ple supply of his tender bear meat, when)
to hie surprise, he saw a large bear
hounding towards him, very much
determind to demolish him at one meal.
Our hero dropped his gun, and started
off like a frightened deer dowu the hill.
His companions saw him coming through
the bush, and sang out to him, “What’s
the matter?—“Gi-gi-gi-git out your
guns—ready for a shot,” stammered he,
almost out of breath, “I am bringing
her right into camp.”

“The Expositor”
For the Campaign!
•
The approaching Campaign will doubtless be one of
the most interesting and exciting that has occurred within
the present century; and we offer The Expositor for a
sum almost, nominal, that every citizen of Burke, at least,
may be fully informed of its progress and developments.
From now until the first of December we will furnish it
to subscribers for Fifty Cents in Advance ; and we trust
that in this way it will reach every reader in the county.
Tiie Expositor will contain full and accurate Crop Re
ports, Prices Current, Foreign and Domestic News, and
every Political Item of interest from Maine to California,
with extracts from all the leading Newspapers in the
United States, and Synopses of important Speeches by
the most able and eloquent Orators and Statesmen in
the country. We appeal to our people to patronize and
sustain their COUNI'Y PAPER. In doing so they not
only enable us to live, but add to the character and polit
ical importance of the county itself. Almost the first
question an intelligent stranger asks is : “Is there a
newspaper published in your county V and in an age
like this it would surely be humiliating to answer, “No!'’
Every honest man is authorized to act as our agent;
and upon receipt of subscription price, the paper will be
promptly forwarded. Address, JAS. E. FROST,
