Let tlicm laud the notes that In rt lisle float,
Through tho blight and glittering hull;
While the amorous twirl of the hair’s bright'

Rouud the shoulder of beauty (falls.
But dearer to me 1s the song from the tree,
And tho rich and blossoming botigli,

Aa he follows thu Good Old Plough.
Full‘many there bo that dolly :4o soo,
With a selfish and hollow pr|do,
Who tho ploughman's lot, Ip his humble cot,
With a scornful loolt deride;
But I bad lather tako, aye, a hearty shake,
From his hand than to wiiaith I’d bow;
For tlio honest grasp of bis band's rough clasp,
Has stood by tho dood Qld Plougli.
All.honor bo then to these gray old men,
When at lost they are bowed with toll,
Their warfare than o'er, they battle no moro,
For thcy'vo conquered tho Stubborn soil.
And tho chaplet each wears, is his silver hairs;
And ne'er shall the victor’s brow,
With a laurel crown to tho gravo go down
Like the sons of the dood Old Plough.

The red flames of tho fire oast an .unearthly

vealod with fearful distinctness tho features
of a strong man who had emerged from tho
depth of tho wood and stood leaning upon tho

Tho rnsh of tho steed was heard, tho under

horseman bolted In front of tbo burning man

around him.
It was McDonald 1 tho affianced of Marlon

“ Tako that old gray headed dog lo tho first

horso through the gate, and urged him for

Haifa dozen men sprang forward to obey;
and the old man was released from his hone,

- Origin of Tea Being Vied,

the son of an Indian king, came Into Chhm,
about the year 619 of tho Christian era, pure
ly to promulgate Ids religion; and to gal* R
tho bettor reception, lio led a very austere life,
costing only vegetables, and spending moat of
his time In contemplation of tho Deity. Tha
nights, especially, were devoted to his exer
cise, pursuant to a vpw ho had mado against
sleeping. After continual watchings fbr aeve-
ml years, sleep overcame him: but, on hla
awaking, such was his remorse and grief for
having brokon his vow, that in order to pre
vent a relapse, ho out off hts eye-lids, as tha
Instruments of his crimo, and with Indigna
tion throw them on'tho|grouad; but the next
day ho found them metamorphosed into two
shrubs, now known by tho name of Cbaa or
Tea. Datum, oatlngsorae of the leaves, felt
himself not Only more sprightly than usual,
but such was tho vigour imparted to hla mind
by these leaves, that his meditations beoaare

Extravagance in Living
•'Ono cannot wonder that tho times occas
ionally get hard,” said a venorablo citizen tire
other day, "whenono socs tho way In which
tlio people llvo nnd ladles dies*.” IVe thought
there was a good deal of truth to what tho old
gonttomin said. Houses aro at fivo hundred
to a thousand dollars rent; brocades at threo
dollars a yard; und shawls, cloaks, tec,, from
fifty dollars' up, are enough to embarrass any
community which Indulges in such extrava
gances as extensively ns Americans do. For
Itlsnot-only tho'families of realized wealth,
who can afford it, that spend money In this
way, but thoso who are yet labouring to mako
a fortune, and who by the cbanco of trado,
may toll of this desirable result after all.—
Everybody almost wishes now a days, to live
as If already rich. Tho wives and daughters
ofmen not Worth two thousand dollars a year,
dress ns richly nearly as those of men worth
ten or twenty thousand. Tlieyoung, too, begin

Tho folly of this Is apparent. These sums,

tise ofa wise economy, most ftmllios might, in
time, entitle themselves to such luxuries; apd
then Indulgence in them would not bo repre
hensible. If there are two men, each rual
