THE EXPOSITOR W-A.YISrjBSI3OK.O, OA., SLBSCRII'TIOX I’RU'K II AIIYAMI: Two Dollars pox* Annum. SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1872. 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.” mi non All the Summer!

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.
