March 23th, 1876. “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 reasonable rates, and solicit a share of 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.

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.
