He alone is independent who can main tain himself by bis own exertions, unaided and alone. In Egypt a woman is considered old at twenty-live, aud very old at thirty. A little girl who was asked to define reading, said, “ It is hearing with the eyes instead of with the ears.” Great powers and natural gifts do not bring privileges to their possessors so much as they bring duties. Beauty cannot inflame the fancy so much iu a mouth, as ridiculous folly can quench it in a moment. The greatest peer that England ever produced—Shakspeare. As it is the characteristic of great wits to say much in a few words, so it is of small wits to talk much and say nothing. A census has just been taken of the members of Brigham Young’s family, which returns him 68 children, of whom 40 are females. His wives number 32. It is not enough that we swallow truth ; we must feed upon it, as insects do ou the leaf, till the whole heart be colored by its qualities, and shows its food in every fibre. Coleridge. A recent writer maintains anew theory, viz : that all angels are not young and love ly, but that many on the contrary, are old, scraggy and shabby looking. An unjust accusation is like a barbed arrow, which must be drawn backwards with horrible anguish, or else it will be our destruction. 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 in the mind, and fills it with a steady and perpetual serenity.— Addison. The man who would be considered wise should never give an opinion until lie has carefully estimated what his opinion is worth. Friendship is more firmly secured by lenity towards failings than by attachment to excellences. One is valued as kindness that cannot he explained, the other exact ed as payment of a debt to merit. The impeaunious market-gardener who wants to know how to start a little nursery, is strongly advised to get married.— Judy. 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 place much reliance on a man who is al ways telling what he would have done had he been there. I have noticed that somehow this kind of people never get there.” A Queen's Necklace.—Queen Char lotte s necklace, of well-matched ame thysts, the most perfect inexistence, was valued, when worn by her, at £2,000; at present it would not command as many shillings, so great has been the importa tion of late years of Germ in amethysts and topazes, which are dug in endless abund ance in the Sicbengebergo on the Rhine. A philosopher says that the true secret of earthly happiness is to enjoy pleasures as they arise; for that man who can keep !rLw e .° n b *% h * Present, while it is ■r 1 taatu s the cup of sweetness prepar ; , but we are P rone look for objects, while we should he S those that are more agreeable. 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.
