It is assumod, in the first place, that adequate guidance for conduct in life, private and public, could be had ; and that a moral code, rationally elaborated by men as they now are, would bo duly operative upon them. Neither of theso propositions commends itself when wo come to examino the evidence. We have but to observe human action as it meets us at every turn, to see that the average intelligence, incapablo of guid ing conduct even iu simple matters, where but a very moderate reach of rea son would suffice, must fail in appre hending with due clearness the natural sanctions of ethical principles. The un thinking inaptitude with which even the routine of life is carried on by the mass of mcD, shows clearly that they have nothing like the insight required for self-guidance in the absence of an authoritative code of conduct. Take a day’s experience, and observe the lack of thought indicated from hour to hour. You rise iu tho morning, and, while dressing, take up a phial containing a tonic, of which a little has been pre scribed for you ; but, after tho first few drops have been counted, succeeding drops run down the side of the phial; all because the lip is shaped without re gard to the requirement. Yet millions of such phials arc annually made by glass-uiakers, and sent out by thousands of druggists; so small being the amount of sense brought to hear on business. Now, turning to the looking-glass, you find that, if not of the best make, it fails to preserve the attitude in which you put it; or, if what is called a ‘'box’’ lookiDg-gla3s, you see that the mainte nance of its position is insured by an expensive appliance that would have been superflous bad a little reason been used. Were the ajustment such that the centre of gravity of the glass came in the line joining the points of support (which would be quite as easy an ad justment), the glass would remain steady iu whatever attitude you gave it. Yet year after year tens of thousands of looking-glasses are made without re gard to so simple a need. Presently you go down to breakfast, and, taking some Harvey or other sauce with your fish, find the bottle has a defect like that which you found in the phial; it is sticky from the drops which trinkle down, and occasionally stain the table cloth. Here are other groups of tra ders, similarly so economical of thought that they do nothing to rectify this ob vious inconvenience. Having break fasted, you take up the paper, and, bo fore sitting down, wish to put some coal on fire. But the lump you seize with the tongs slips oqt of them, and, if large, you make several attempts before you succeed in lifting; all because the ends of the tongs are smooth. Makers and vendors of fire-irons go on, generation after generation, without meeting this evil by the simplo remedy of giving to these smooth ends some projecting points, or even roughening them by a few burrs with a chisel. Having at length grasped tho lump and put it on tho fire, you begin to read ; but, before you have got through the column, you are reminded, by the changes of posi tion which your sensations prompt, that men still fail to make casy-chairs. And yet the guiding principle is simple enough. Just that advantage secured by using a soft scat for a hard one; the advantage, namely of spreading over a large area the presure of the weight to be borne, aud so making the pressure less intense at auy one point; is an ad vantage to be sought in the form of the chair. Ease is to be gained by making the shapes aud relative inclinations of seat and back such as will evenly distri bute the weight of the trunk and limbs over the widest possible supporting sur face, and with the least straining of the parts of their natural attitude. And yet only now, after these thousands of years of civilization, are there being reached, and that not rationally but empirically approximations to the struct ure required. Such are the experiences of the first hour; and so they continue all the day through. If you watch and criticise, you may see that tho immense majority bring to bear, even on those actions which it, is the.bus’mofis of their lives to carry on elFeotually, an extremely small amount of faculty. Get a work man to do something for you that is moro oi loss new, and not tho clearest explanations and sketches will prevent him from blundering; aud, to any ex pression of surprise, he will reply that he was not brought up to it; scarcely over betraying the slightest shame in confessing that lie cannot do a thing he was not taught to do. Similarly through out the higher grades of activity. Re member how generally improwumcnts in manufactures come from outsiders, and you arc at onco shown with what were unintelligent routine manufactures • arc commonly carried on. Examine into the management of mercantile con cerns, and you peroeive that those en gaged iu them mostly do nothing more than move in tho ruts that have grad ually been made for them by the pro cess of trial and error during a long succession of generations. Indeed, it almost seems as though most men made it their aim to get through life with the least possible expenditure of thought. How, then, can there be looked for such power of self-guidance as, iu the absence of inherited authoritative rules, would require them to understand why, in the naturo of things, these modes beneficial, would require them to pass beyond proximate results, and see clear ly the iuvolved results as worked out on self, on others, aud on society ? The incapacity need not, indeed, be inferred; it may bo seen, if we but take an action concerning which the sancti fied code is silent. Listen to a con versation about gambling ; and, where reprobation is expressed, note thegrounds of the reprobation. That it tends to ward the ruin of tho gambler; that it risks the welfare of family and friends; that it alienates from business, and leads into bad company; these, and such as these, arc the reasons given for condemning the practice. Rarely is there any recognition of the fundament al reason. Rarely is gambling condemn ed because it is a kind of action by which pleasure is obtained at the cost of pain to another. The normal obtain ment of gratification, or of the money which purchases it, implies, in the first place, that there has been put forth equivalent effort of a kind which, in some way, furthers tho general good; aud implies, iu tho second place, that those from whom the money is received, get, directly or indirectly, equivalent satisfactions. But in gambling the opposite happens. Benefit received does not imply effort put forth ; and the happiness of the winner involves the misery of the loser. This kind of action is therefore essentially anti-social; sears the sympathies, cultivates a hard egotism, and so produces a general de terioration of character and conduct. Clearly, then, a visionary hope mis leads those who thiok that in an imag ined age of reason, which might forth with replace an age of beliefs but part ly rational, conduct would be correctly guided by a code directly pased on con siderations of utility. A utilitarian system of ethics cannot at present be correctly thought out even by the se lect few, and is quite beyond th men tal reach of the many. The value of tho inherited and theologically enforced code is that it formulates, with some approach to correctness, the accumulat ed results of past human experience. It has not riaen rationally but emperi eally. During all past times mankind have eventually gone right after trying all possible ways of going wrong. Tho wrong-goings have been habitually checked by disaster, and pain, and death; and the right-goings have been contin ued because not thus checked. There has been a growth of beliefs correspond ing to these good and evil results. Hence the codo of conduct, embodying discoveries slowly and almost uncon sciously made through a long series of generations, has traiißcendant authority on its side,— Herbert Spencer. ♦ A Serviceable S.vake— .This snake story comes, well attested, from Wash ington county: A fanner challenged a visitor to find in his crib a single grain of corn bitten by a rat or mouse. The visitor, having given it up after a pro tracted search inquired tho reason, and was shown a large cow snake reposing quietly in a corner of tho crib. This snake, the farmer says, has lired in his crib for the past two years, and has destroyed or frightened away all the rats and mice that onoe infested the lo cality. Such snakes ought to be en couraged. —Lebanon (Ay) Standard. “The Expositor” Adv. till HIM FXJBX.XSKCI33D EVEKV THURSDAY, UY Frost, Lawson, Corker & Gray, AT $2.00 PER ANNUM. IN ADVANCE.

Prosjjt ctiis fur I >7^—SSixtli Year, THE ALIMNK, | An Illustrated ALunthly Juurnal, universally admitted to be the Handsomest Periodical in the World. A Representative and Champion of Ameiican Taste. Not for Mule In Hook or News Stores. THE ALPINE, while issued with all the regularity, has nono of tho temporary or timely interest characteristic of ordinary periodicals It is an elegant miscellany of pure, light, and graceful litornturo ; and a collection of pictures, the rarest specimens of artistic skill, in black and white. Although each succeeding number affords a fresh pleasure to its friends, the real valuo and beauty of The Aldinc will be most ap preciated after it has been bound up at tho close of tho year. hilo other publications may claim superior cheapness a red with rivals of a similar class, The Almne is a unique and original conooption—alone and unapproachcd —absolutely without competition in price or character. The possessor of a complete volume cannot duplicate tho quantity of fine paper and engravings in any other slinpo, or number of volumes for ten times its cost ; and then, there are the chromos, besides! ART r>EI>AR.TIva:EISXT. Notwithstanding tho incroaso in tho price of subscription last Fall, when The Aldinc assumes its present noblo proportions and representative character, tho edition teas mure than doubled during the past year j proving that tho Ameri can public appreciate, and will support a sin cere effort in tho cause of Art. Tho publishers, anxious to justify the ready confidence thus demonstrated, have exortod thomsolv'os to the utmost to develop and improve the work; oral tho plans for the coming year, as unfolded by tho monthly issuos, will astonish and delight oven the most sanguino frionds of The Aldine. The publishers are authorized to announce de signs from many of tho most eminent artists in America. In addition, The Aldine will reproduce ex amples of the best foreign tnastors, selected with a view to the highest artistic success, and great est gcnoral interest; avoiding such ns have be come familiar, through photographs, or copies of any kind. The quarterly tintod plates, for 1873 will re produce four of John S Davis inimitable child sketches, appropriate to tho four seasons. Theso plates, appearing in tho issues for January, April, July, and Octobor, would bo alone worth tho price of a year’s subscription. Tho popular feature of a copiously illustrated “Christmas” number will bo continued. To possess such a valuablo opitomo of the art world at a cost so trifling, will command tho subscriptions of thousands in every section of tho country; but., ns tho usefulness and attrac tions of The Aldine can be enhanced, in propor tion to the numerical increase of its supporters, the publishers propose to make “assurance doubly sure,” by the following unparalloled offer of Premium Chromos for 1813. Every subscriber to The Aldine, who pays in ad vance for the year 1873, will receive, without addi tional charge, a pair of beautiful oil chromos, after .1. J. Iltll, the eminent English painter. The pic tures, entitled “The Village Belle,” and “Crossing the Moor,” are 11x20 Inches—are printed from 25 different plates, requiring 25 impressions and tints to perfect each picture. The same chromos are sold for S3O per pair in the art stores. As it is the determination of its conductors to keep The Aldinc out of the reach of competition in every depart ment, the chromos will be found correspondingly ahead of any that can be offered by other periodi cals. Every subscriber will receive certificate, over the signature of the publisher uaranteeing that the chromos delivered shall out! it the samples furnished the agent, ort i will lie refunded. The distribution of picture sgrade, free to the subscribers to a five do’l t, periodica!, will mark an epoch in the history of Art; and, con sidering the unprecedented cheapness of the price for The Aldine it.-ylf, the marvel falls tittle short of a miraclo, even to those best acquainted with the achievements of inventive genius and improved mechanical appliances, (For illustrations of these chromos, see November issue of The Aldine.
