“It is marvellous with what liberality
Providence atones for the partial dispen
sations of Fortune. Independence or the
vigorous pursuit of it; affection with its
hopes and its rewards; a life only ren
dered by art more susceptible to stature
—in which physical enjoyments are pure,
healthful—in which the —oral faculties
expand harmoniously with the intellec
tual, and the heart is at peace with the
mind; is this a mean lot for ambition to
desire, and it is so far out of human reach
'Know thyself,” said the old philosophy.
,Improve thyself,” saith the new. The
great object of the sojourner in time is
not to waste all his passions and gifts
on the things external he must live Im
hind—that which he cultivates within all
that he can carry into the Eternal
Progress. We are here but as schoolbys,
whose life begins where school ends;
and the battles we fought with our rivals,
and the joys that we shared with our
playmates, and the names that we carved
high or low, on the walls above our desk
—will they so much bestead us hereafter?
As new faces crowd upon us can they
more than pass through the memory
with a smile or sigh ? Look back to thy
school days and answer.” —Buhoer Li
tton ( Gaxton .)
“Bub, did you ever stop to think,”
said an East Boston grocer recently, as
he measured out half a peck of potatoes,
“that these potatoes contain sugar, water
and starch ?” “No, I didn’t,” replied the
boy, “but I heard mother say you put
peas and beans in your coffee, and about
a pint of water in ever} quart of milk
you sold.” The subject of natural phil
osophy was dropped right there.
The clerk of the United States Dis
trict Court of Atlanta takes twenty-five
cents out of every witness and juryman
to pay for the stationery used in sum
moning him.
The late cold snap has done no little
damage to the early and tender vegetab
les. It is said that the early bird
catches the worm, and these unexpected
cold snaps catches the early vegetables.
A good conscience seats the mind on
' a rich throne of lasting quiet.
JOB PRINTING.
We would cdll the attention of the
public to the fact that we are now pre
pared to do all kinds of job printing at

their patronage.
swEvysrs wtei, ir.w york.
In another column will be found an
advertisement of this famous institu
tion. It has long been a favorite resort
for Southerner’s, and is one of the best,
hotels in New York. We can conscien
tiously recommend it to our readers,
having tested its merits on several oc
casions.
THE IRISH CITIZEN.
The attention of our readers is called
to the advertisement of the Irish Citizen,
published in New York by Mr. L. Kane.
The Citizen is a well edited journal, and
advocates Irish Nationality, the Ro
man Catholic religion, the interests of
labor and and the rights of Irishmen,
in this country.
Prompt Reinforcement.
When the physical energies are overtasked or flag
through weakness or disease, they need prompt rein
forcement. Renewed vigor is most speedily supplied
through the medium of a tonic stimulant, and among
medicinal resources of that class, Hostetter’s Btomach
Sitters assuredly deserve a pre-eminent place. Weak
ness, whether constitutional or arising from disease
or over fatigue, canno* be better compensated for
than by a resort to this prime strengthening cordial.
The enfeebled invalid, the convalescent, and the aged
and infirm, find that it is an unfailing source of vigor
and comfort. Its combined tonic and alterative pro
perties also cons itute it an invaluable remedy for
indigestion, weakness of the organs of urination, con
stipation, torpidity of the liver, and many other
irregularities and disabilities, and render it an inval
uable protection against malaria, as well as disorders
of the stomach and bowels.
IRISH CATHOLICS SHOULD READ THE
IRISH CITIZEN.
It has a Magnificent Illustration each week; Twice
as much Home News as any
Other Paper in America;
Original Irish Stories by the best authors; Thrilling
Poems, Wit, Humor, Anecdote, Literary Miscellany,
Ball, Temperance and Society News, Fashions, Person
als, Answer to Correspondents, Religious Items, and
everything else that can possibly interest Irishmen
in America.
Its editorials are crisp and to the point. They ad
vocate Irish Nationality, the Roman < atholic Religion,
the interest of Labor, and the rights of Irishmen in
this country.

APPLETON’S AMERICAN
GYGLOP/EDIA.
Nov Revised Edition.
ENTIRELY REWRITTEN BY THE ABLEST WRI
TERS ON EVERY BUBJECT.
Printed from new Type, and illustrated with sever
al Thousand Engravings and Maps.
The work originally published under the title of
THE NEW AMERICAN CYCLOPAEDIA was completed
in 1863 since which time, the wide circulation which
it has attained in all parts of tho United States, and
flie sigual developments which have taken place in
overs branch of science, literature, and art, have in
duced the editors and publishers to submit it to an
exact and thorough revision, and to issue a i\ew edi
tion
The American Cyclopaedia.
Within the last ten years the progress of discovery
in every department of knowledge has made anew
work of reference an imperative want
The movement of political affairfi has kept pace with
the discoveries of science, and their fruitful application
to the industrial and useful arts and the convenience
and refinement of social life. Great wars and conse
quent revolutions have occurred, involving national
changes of peculiar moment. The civil war of our
own country, which was at its height when the last
volume of the old work appeared, has happily been
ended, and anew course of commercial and industrial
activity has been commenced. Large accessions to
our
GEOGRAPHICAL KNOWLEDGE
Have been made by the indefatigable explorers of
Africa.
The great political revolutions of the last decade,
with the natural result of the lapse of time, have
brought into public view a multiiude of new men,
whose names are in every one’s mouth, and of whose
lives every one is curious to know tho particulars.
Great battles have been fought and important sieges
maintained, of which the details are as yet preserved
only in the newspapers or in the transient publica
tions of the day, but which ought now to take their
place in
Permanent and Authentic History
In prepairing the present edition for the press, it
has accordingly been the aim of the editors to bring
down the information to the latest possible dates, and
to furnish an accurate account of the most recent dis
coveries in science, of every fresh production of liter
ature, and of the newest inventions in the practical
arts, as well as to give a succinct and original record
of the progress of
Political and Historical Events.
The work has been begun after long and prelimi
nary labor, and with the most ample resources for
carrying it on to a successful termination,
None of the original stereotype plates have been
used, but every page has been
Printed on New Type,
Forming in fact a uew Cyclopaedia, with the same
plan ana compass as its predecessor, but with a far
greater pecuniary expenditure, and with such im
provements in its composition as have been suggested
by longer experience and enlarged knowledge,
The Illustrations
"Which are introduced for the first time in the pres
ent edition have been added not for the sake of pic
toral effect, but to give greater incidity and force to
the explanations in the text. They embrace all bran
ches of science and of natural history, depict the most
famous and remarkable features of scenery, architec
ture, and art, as well as the various processes of me
chanics and manufactures. Although intended for in
struction rather than embellishment, no pains have
oeen spared to insure their
Artistic Excellence.
The cost of their execution is enormous, and it is be
lieved they will find a welcome reception as an admir
able feature of the Cyclopaedia, and worthy of its high
character.
This work is sold to subscribers only, payable on
delivery of each volume. It will be complete in Six
teen large Octavo Volumes, each containing about 800
pages, fully illustrated with several thousand Wood
Engravings, and with numarous colored Lithographic
Daps.
