JTHE LESSON Or THE LEAVES.
(in thou ho barest on thy thoughtful faco
i'he wearied calm that follows after grief.
See how the autumn guides each loosened leaf
Tenure repose in its uwn sheltered pluce
Ali. not fprever whirl they in the race
Of wild forlornness round the gathered sheaf.
Or. hurrying onward in a rapture brief.
Spin o’er the moorlands into trackless space!
Some hollow captures each, some sheltering w'all
Arrests the wanderer < *< its aimless way;
The autumn's pensive beauty needs them all.
Aud wmier (inds them vvann. though sere and

sweet call.
And shield new leaflets for the burst of May.

Nevada Miners Dyed Green.
A contract lias been let ou the Martin
White mine, at Ward Nev . and work is
to be resumed forthwith A queer phe
uotnenon is connected with the working
ot the Martin VV hite ore The ore is very
base, and it is necessary to roast the
whole ot it During the roasting process
no deleterious or disagreeable fumes are
observable, yet the hair and the beards of
all the men engaged about the works are
soon dyed a bright and permanent green
Even the eyebrows of the workmen are as
green as grass In scores of Nevada
mines ores of various kinds are smelted
and roasted but at none of them is either

there is less arsenic in theoro of the Mar

suci. effect on the hair, and all declare
that the emerald hue imparted to the hair

The Man of IJcul Force.
Contrary to general belief, then, the
man of real force is never a bully, is
uever arbitrary or unjust, is never pas
sionale, though he may be, and generally
is, aggrosuvo, and may. as occasion re
quire . give exhibitions of temper that is,
nevertheless. kept in perfect control
Force of c:; a racier brings with it self re
liance and an imperturbable manner
Just as tiie r ally courageous man re
mains c. ul in the presence of danger, the
self r;-I kr.it man keeps his temper under
pr-vocation because he feels confluence in
himself The coward grows excited and
loud mouthed to conceal his real feelings
The arbitrary mail, accustomed to force
his views upon others, loses confidence in
aud control of himself when lie fails to
make his usual impression. It is at such
a moment that real force of character be
ginstotell.it is then that the self cpn
t.w ‘J and self respecting man dictates
hi- terms and asserts his power Haiti

TLi :- seaworthiness of the monitors has
bee.i thoroughly tested The old Monad

haved admirably in the long seas of the
Pacific ocean. Soon after the civil war
the old Miantonomoh made a cruise to
Europe, encountering heavy weather,
it:--- seas would come over bow and stern
lour feet deep at times, but pass off
quickly without even preventing the use
of her guns. Eho rolled but 7 degrees,
while tho two ships accompanying her
ruled 20 to‘dO degrees. In tho report of
this cruise by Assistant Secretary Fox we
find “A vessel which attacks a monitor
in a seaway must approach very close to
have any chance of hitting such a low
Lull, and even then the monitor is half
the time covered up with throe or four
feet of water, protecting herself and dis
turning her opponent s fire.”—American

First Fiddle to Somebody.
Ia the grand orchestra of life everybody
is anxious to play iirst fiddle. Nay. almost
everybody does play it; for although the
fiddle absolute may take precedence
<>- all the rest, yet every second fiddle is
first fiddle to somebody. As “fleas have
smaller fleas to bito 'em, and so on ad in
fimtam," so every man who tickles a su
perior has an inferior to tickle him. If it
w ere not for this pleasant arrangement
we should have no social harmony, and it
is only when this system of relations is
disturbed that we experience discords and

a rehearsal of one of his operas he devotes
