Slavery In Masaiohusatts.
In 1734 there were nearly four hun
dred and fifty slaves In Essex County,
Maesachueetta, alone. The present
constitution ot Massachusetts was es
tablish od In 1780. The tint article ot
the declaration of rights asserts that
all men aro born free anil equal, and
this was generally supposed to have
reference to slavery, hut It was a point
on vfhlch all did not agree. In 1781,
however, at the court In Wofeiester,
an 'Indictment was found against a
white man for assaulting, beating and
Imprisoning a black. HI* trial took
place at the Supreme Judicial Court,
1788, and the defence was that the
black man was a slava, and tbs heat
ing, et cetera, waa the neceesary cor
rection of hie matter. Thle defence
did not avail; the white man was
found guilty and lined, and thle de
cision was the death-warrant for slav
ery In Massachusetts.

A Goad Tiaebir,
Wo often find boys who have edu
cated themselves In the country,
Rlmost without schooling or teachers,
make the moat Vigorous thinkers,
They may not be quite ae polished' or
cultivated, In eome ways,, bnt they
have something better than polish, and
that Jt mental vigor, originality ot
method, add Independence. They do
not lean upon their echoollng, or
depend upon their diplomas; necessity
has been their teacher, and they have
been forced to act for themselves and
be practical; they know little of theor
ies, bnt they know whet will work,.
They, have gained power by eolvlng
their own problems. Such self-edu
cated, self-made men carry weight -In
their communities because they are
men of power and ’ think vigorously
and strongly; they have learned to con
centrate the mind.
Self-help la the only help that will
make strong, vigorous llveai Self-
rellaneo la a great educator and' early
poverty a good teacher. Necessity baa
ever been tha prtceleae spur which has
called man out of himself and sparred
him on to hie goal.
Grit la more than a match for almoat
any handicap. It overcomes obstacles
and abolishes difficulties. It Is the
mail who nukes an opportunity, and
does not wait for It—the mau who
helps himself and does not wait to
be helped,—that makes tha strong
thinker and vigorous operator.
It Is be who dates to be himself and
to -work by hit own program, with
out Imitating others, who wins.—
