It is not enough that we swallow truth ;

qualities, and shows its food in every fibre.

Disputes.—lt is an excellent rule to lie
observed in all disputes, that men should
give soft words and hard arguments ; that
they should not so much strive to vex as
to convince au opponent.
Of all kinds of property, money lent on
good security is the most interesting.
Cheerfulness keeps up a kind of daylight

HUMOUR.
Rumour is a pipe
Clown by surmises, jealousies, conjectures:
And of so easy and 60 plain a stop,
That the blunt monster with uncounted heads,
The still-discordant wavering multitude
Can play upon it. Shdkspeare.
A sentimental young gentleman recent
ly made an observation of a tender nature
to a lady during the progress of a quad
rille ; but as he was afflicted with a severe
cold, she could not gather whether he had
been • nipped in the bud,” or “dipped in
the mud.” This state of uncertainty is
most cruel.
A veteran observer says: “I never

somehow this kind of people never get

A Queen's Necklace.—Queen Char

Variation on Hochefoucaulo.
There is something siugulnrly delightful
to us in the growing infirmities of our
oldest friends, notwithstanding that their
age may bo the same as our own. — Punch.
“My son, 1 ’ said au affectionate mother
to her son (who expected to be married
very soon), “you are getting very thin."
“Yes, mother,” he replied ; "when 1 come
next time you will he able to see my' rib.'
TIIE NEW ORDER OF SERVICE IN Dun
dke. —“Mr. Jones,” said a clergyman, on
a pastoral visit, “I don't see you and Mrs.
Jones at church on Sunday evenings.',
“Well, no," replied Mr. Jones; “my wife
has to stay at home to take care ot the
children, and as it comes rather hard on
her. 1 stay to keep tier company." “W by,
how is that; don’t you keep any ser
vants V” "Oli, yes, we keep two; hut
they don’t allow us any privileges.”
Standards of Beauty.—The stand
ards of beauty in woman vary with those
of taste Socrates called beauty a short
lived tyranny ; Pluto, a privilege of na
ture ; Theophrastus, a silent cheat; The
ocritus, a delightful prejudice ; Carneades,
a solitary kingdom ; aud Aristotle affirm
ed that it was better than all the letters of
recommendation in the world.
It is the custom in Paris, when a shop
keeper has either a marriage or death in
his family, to put up the shutters and an
nounce tire cause of closing in a few lines’
addressed to the public, pasted on the
door. In the case of a death the photo
graph of the deceased is generally nailed
above the paper notice. Within the last
few days the cartes of a bridge and bride
jjroom have been similarly exposed.
An Emi’Eroii's Table.—The Emper
or of Germany is the most abstemious of
European momuehs. He takes every day
hut two small meals. After rising he
takes a cup of coffee; at noon some roast
meat and potatoes, witli a glass of Bor
deaux wine ; and at seven in the evening
a supper, supper, consisting of bread; sau
sage, aud a cup of tea. Persons invited
to the Imperial table express their sur
prise at its extreme simplicity.
Impossibilities.—Be not angry that
you cannot make others as you wish them
to be, since you cannot make yourself
what you wislt to be. —Thomas a Kempis.
Secrets of Comfort.—Though some
times small evils, like invisible insects, in
flict pain, and a single hair may stop a
vast machine, yet the chief secret of com
fort lies in not suffering trifles to vex one,
and in prudently cultivating an under
growth of small pleasures ; since very few
great ones, alas! are lot on long leases.
Art of Memory.—The best way to
remember a thing is thoroughly to uuilcr
staud it, and often to recall it to mind.
By reading continually with great atten
tion, and never passing a passage without
understanding and considering it well,
the memory will he stored with knowl
edge ; and things will occur at times
wheu we want them, though we can nev
er recollect the passages or from whence
we draw our ideas — l)r. Tntsler.
Byron’s Daughter.—On one occasion
Lady Lovelace paid a visit, to Newstead
Abbey. In the great library, Col. Wild
man, who had invited her there, read one
of the finest passages of Byron, to Byron’s
daughter, who touched with the beauty of
the verse, asked who was the author. Col.
Wiklman started at her, and said, “There
is the riortrait of the author,” pointing to
the portrait of Byron by Phillips. He read
yet more of Byron’s poetry to her. Lady
Lovelace was mute with astonishment as
new revelations burst upon her. “Do you
think this is affectation,” she said, at last,
when I have been brought up in complete
ignorance of all that regards my father ?”
From that moment a passionate enthusiasm
for everything which recalled the memory
of possession of her. While
at Newstead Abbey, she used to shut her
self for long hours in the apartments he
had lived in, aud whicli still retained much
of the furniture which had belonged to
him. —Lady Clementina Davis' Recollec
tions of Society.
Sleeping Flowers.—Almost all flow
ers sleep during the night. The marigold
goes to bed with the sun, and with him
rises weeping. Many plants are so sensi
tive that they close their leaves during the
passage of a cloud. The dandelion opens
at five or six in the morning, and shuts at
nine in the evening. The goat’s heard
wakes at three in the morning, and shuts
at five or six in the evening. The Eng
lish daisy -shuts up its blossom in the
evening, and opens its “day’s eye” to meet
the early beams of the morning sun. The
crocus, tulip, mid many others, close their
blossoms at different hours towards the
evening. The ivy-leaved lettuce opens at
eight in the morning, aud clover at four
in the afternoon. The night-flowering
cereus turns night into (Jay. It begins to
expand its magnificent, sweet-scented blos
soms ip. the twilight; it is full-blown at
midnight, and closes never to open again
with the dawn of day. Those plants
which seem to be awake ail night have
been called “the bats aud owls of the veg
etable kingdom.”
Lack of Ettiquette.—The following
illustration is give of etiquette in the time
of Louis XV.:
In the Queen's apartment there were
two chambers. One day the Queen saw a
speck of dust on her bed and showed it to
Madame de Luynes, her maid of honor.
The latter sent lor the valet de chambre,
bed-maker to tlie Queen, that lie might
show it to the valet de chambre, bed-ma
ker of the King. The latter arrived at tire
end of an hour, but said that the dust was
none of his business, because the bed
makers of the King made up the common
bed of the Queen, but were forbidden to
touch Ue Htate bed. Consequently, the
dust must be remor ed by the officers of the
household. The Queen gave orders that
they should be sent for, and every day for
two months she asked if the dust had been
brushed off, but they had not yet found out
whose duty it was to remove the speck.
Great was the scandal thereof, but no one
dreamed of blaiming the absence of tlie
officers ; they only found that the Queen
liad been wanting in etiquette.
Avery old mai once caafe into the
witness-box in the Ohio court. lie was
asked a common question :
“What is your age ?”
“Twenty-two.”
“You probably mistake tlie question
The years of your life—l wish the
number of them.”
“Twenty-two.”
“Have you spent ail your life in Ohio?”
"Oh, no. I did live forty years on the
Eastern Bho’ of Maryland, but I hope the
Lord ain't counted them agin me?”
MACON, GA., TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1872.
It is oue of the severest tests of friend
ship to tell your friend of his faults. If
you are angry witli a man or hate him, it
is not hard to go to him and stab him with
words—that is friendship. But few have
such friends. Enemies usually teach us
what they are at the point of the sword.
•Faithful are wounds of a friend, but the
kisses of an enemy are deceitful."
Miss Burdett-Coutts is well-known as a
woman of large wealth, who loves to use
her riches for noble objects. Her father
founded the bank, which lias proved so
lucrative, aud owed his first success to a
wise liberality.
A distinguished peer had been refused
a loan of ten thousand pounds sterling by
a London hunk. Mr. Coutts heard of it,
sent a request to the lord to call at his
office, aud offered to muko the loan.
“The peer, surprised, said, “I can give
you no security.”
“Your lordship's note of hand will be
quite sufficient,” was the prompt reply.
The peer accepted the loan, and left five
thousand of it on deposit in the hank. The
story soon found a wide circulation. Olli
er peers transferred their funds. The
King's curiosity was aroused, and, after a
personal interview, he was so pleased with
the modesty and intelligence of the hanker
that he made him the custodian of the
royal funds. The Court followed the ex
ample of the King, and the bank became
the favorite of the English aristocracy.
Principle is u passion for truth.— Hazlitt.
Gondolas in Venice.
The gondola is as original as everything
else Venetian, aud is precisely adapted to
the structural features and wants of the
city. It is the most Venetian thing in
Venice—the flower of this lotus of the sea.
More significantly than the lion of St.
Mark it would have adored its escutcheon.
A single oarsman will go through the
Grand Canal and return, a distance of
four miles, in two hours, moving at the or
dinary rate, aud two iu a little more than
Half the time. The gondolas are inva
riably painted black, inside and out, the
trimmings beings of the sann j color. The
wood work is ornamented with carvings
and tracery, and the boat is in all respects
tidily kept.
Didst ever sec a gondola? For fear
You should not, i’ll diseribe it you exactly;
’Tie a long cohered bont that’s common here,
Carved at the prow, built lightly, but com
pactly ,
Rowed by two rowers, each called gondolier ;
It glides along the water looking blackly,
Just like a coffin clapped in a canoe,
Where none can make out what you say or do.
And up and down the long canals they go,
And under the Rialto shoot along,
By night aud day, all paces, swift or slow ;
And round the theatres, a sable throng,
They wait in their dusk livery of woe ;
But not to them do wofnl tilings belong,
For sometimes they contain a deal of fun,
Like mourning coaches when the funeral’s
done.
— Byron.
At least four thousand gondolas are now
in daily use in Venice. They are along
all the quays, at all points in the Grand
Canal, at all the principal bridges on the
branch canal—in a word, wherever a
stretch of the canal is in sight, gondolas
are certain to be seen. The pedestrian is
hailed at every bridge on the public
thoroughfares, aud not unfrequently by
.several gondoliers in chorus, reminding
him of the persistent cabmen ot other
cities. No waterman have ever equalled
the gondoliers in the dextrous manage
ment of a bont. or in the graceful use of the
oar. When Venice was in its prime, with
twice its present number of inhabitants
within the same area, the moving throngs
upon its water streets must have presented
a spectacle singularly striking—almost a
fairy scene.— Harper's Magazine.
Blessings brighten as they take
their flight.—The chief of blessing is
good health, without which nothing is
worth the having; it is always appreciated
at its true value after it is lost, hut, too oft
en, not before. Live properly, and correct
ailments before they become seated. For
diseases of the liver, kidneys skin, stom
ach, and all arising from impure or feeble
blood. Dr. Walker’s California Vine
oar Bitters are a sure and speedy rem
edy. It has never yet failed in a single
instance. lib 142.
