So simple a way of ridding a placo oi vermin ought at least to bo tried. An Eloquent Extract. “Generation after generation,” says a fine writer, “have felt as we now feel, and their lives wore as active as our'own. They passed liko vapor, whilo nature wore the same aspect of beauty as when her Creator command ed her to be. The heavens shall be as bright over our graves as they are now around our paths. The world will have the same attractions for our off-spring yet unborn as she had once for our children. Yet in a little while all will have happened. The throb bing heart will be stillod, and all will bo at rest. Our funeral will" wnd the way; and prayers will be said, and thonwe shall bo left alone in silonco and in darknoss for tho worms. And, it may bo, for a short time we shall bo spoken of, but tho things of tho world will cieep in, and our names will soon be forgotten. Days will continue to move on, and laughter and song will bo heard in tho room in which wo died; and tho eyes that mourned for us will be dried, and glis ten again with joy, and ovon our child ren will cease to think of us, and will not remember to lisp our names.” The Power of Children. A man was leaning, very much in toxicated, against a tree j somo little girls coming from school saw him there, and at once said to each other, ‘What shall we do for him ?’ Presently said one, ‘Oh, I’ll tell you : let’s sing him a temperanco song.’ And so they did, collecting around him, they sang, "A way the bowl, swny the bowl,” and so on, in beautiful tones. The poor fellow enjoyed the singing, and when they had finished that son said, ‘Sing again, little girls : sing again.’ ‘Wo will,’ they said, ‘if you sign tho temperance pledge.” ‘No, no; we are not at a temper ance meeting; there are no pledges hero.’ ‘I havo a pledge,’ cries one ; ‘and I have a poncil,’ cries another, and, holding up tho pledge and pencil, they urged him to sign it ‘No, no; I won’t sign now. Sing for me.’ So they sang again, “The drink that’s in the drunkard’s bowl Is not the drink for me.” ‘Oh, do sing again,’ said he, as ho wiped the tears from his eyes. •No,’ said they, ‘unless you sign the pledge ; sign, it is for you,’ He pleaded for tho singing, but they wore firm, and declared they would go away if ho would not sign. ‘But,’ said the poor follow', striving to find an excuse, ‘there’s no table here; how can I write without a table At this a modest, quiet pretty little creaturo with a finger on hor lips, and said, ‘Yes, you can spread the pledge on the crown of your hat, and I’ll hold it for you.’ Off went the hat, tho little child hold it, aud tho pledge was signed, and the little ones burst out with, "Oh, water for mo, bright water for me V 9 I heard that man in Worcostor town hall, with uplifted hands and quivering lips say, ‘I thank God for the sympathy of those little children of morcy to me.’ A Wonmu’s Ds fcuor. For myself, I should be thankful to return to the habits of our grand mothers, buy a bonnot which would do to woar ton years ; have throe dress es, two for ever day and ono for“nieo,” a nd wear them year after year, till they are worn out, without alteration; also twiuo up my hair in a plain wad ot the back of my head. I should then have more time for reading and study, and more time to spend in hooks, pictures, and traveling, to say nothing of the unlimited time and money for doing good. And I know I ver y many women who would only . too happy to throw aside the woa -0301,16 shacklos of fashion. But what wou ld bo the result ? With the maid cu, 1,0 more t nux ; with the wife, a cessation of devotion on tho part of er husband—results too dire to be contemplated for a moment. I speak *hat I know and testify what I have soen : and have myself been to parties sensibly and economically clad, and I * as . despised and rejected of men; ?mn, I have been moro fashionably ad expensively attired, and I had ere beaux than I knew what to do with. By the way, why don’t some the wise an( j sensible bachelors court and marry among the vast army forking girls ? They are dressed imply, and are accustomed to habits 0 enonomy. They would be glad B°°d homes, and would ' , e xcollent wives. They are per oaally attractive, and I doubt not.

BY AUCB CABY. . True worth la In being, not seeming In doing each day that goes by Some little good—not In the dreaming Os great things to do by and by. For whatever men say lu blindness, And spite of the fancies of youth There's nothing so kingly as kindness Aud nothing so royal as truth. We got back our mete as we measure— We cannot do wrong and feel right - Nor can we glvepain and gain pleasure, For just d' avenges each slight. The air for the wing of the sparrow, The bush for the robin and wien, But alway (lie path that Is narrow straight, for thcohildrcn of men, ’Tis not in the pages of story Tho heart of its ills to beguile, Though he who makes courtship to glory Gives all that he hath for her smile. For when from her heights he has won her, Alas I it is ouly to prove That nothing's so sacred as honor, Aud nothing so loyal as love. We cannot make bargains for blisses, Nor catch them like Ashes iu nets, And sometimes the tiling our life misses, Helps more than the thing which it gets. For good iietll not in pursuing, Nor of gaining of great nor of small, But jußt m the doing, and doing As we would be done by, is all. (ting. Through envy, through malice, through ha- Agaiust the world, early and late, No Jot of our courage abating— Our pait is to work aud to wait." And.slight is the ating of his trouble (Those winniugs are less than his worth ; For he who is honest is noble, Whatever his fortunes or birth. A GREAT WORK. How Obstructions arc Being Removed from llie James Ri ver. The Richmhnd Tffiig givos an inter resting account of I’rofossffr Maille fort,s operations on James river. Af ter describing tho sensation produced by tho shock of an explosion under water, which was followed by tho up heaval of broken timbers, mud and stone, and resulted in the removal of two “cribs ,’’about two hundred yards distant from each other, it says: “The surface of the river in every direction was by this covered with fragments of huge timbers, which for nearly ton years have obstructed navigation and perpetuated tho enegy and earnestness of our Confederate engineers. Where there were only three foot of water be fore, there are now eighteen feet. There wore originally twenty cribs placed in three rows across tho chan nel ; of these nineteen have boon re moved by Prof. Maillefert, and only one remains, viz: that on which rests tho reck of the Confederate Gunboat Northampton. This, although not in the contract, will be removed at an early day. Those cribs are pens 18 feet by 25 feet, and are 28 feet .deep. Their wooden frames, which wore 8 ife ly secured by strong iron rods, were constructed of timber 24 iuchos by 18 inches, and were filled with stone— tho estimate for each crib being over 400 tons. It usually requires four explosions to a crib, although yester day throe were found sufficient in one instance. These suffieo not only to break up tho wooded framework but to create four craters in tho bottom of the river immediately at the angles of “tho crib” into which the stone is thrown by repeated shocks, thereby preventing it from bocoining an ob struction in tho channel. All of tho floating timber and other dobris is re moved to the shore, and such logs as are sobbed and sunk are fished up and similarly disposed of. In addition to the obstructions nainod, Prof. Maillo fort has removed from tho Drewry’s Bluff tho wrecks of tho Cur tis Peck, two schooners, two barges and one ‘lighter,’ all of which, except the steamer were filled with stone be fore being sunk. The contract re quired him to complete this important work, which was to give us eighteen feet water in a channel two hundred and fifty foot wide, in ninoty days, ending the 20th of the present month. And, although tho weather has been such as to occasion all sorts, of delays, he will be able to complete it as prom ised. The work at Drewry.s Bluff, for example, not including tho remo val of the wreck of the Northampton, will require, it is estimated, two days more: that at Graveyard Bend’ about tho same time, and that at ‘Worwiek,s Bar’ perhaps le*ss- Iu this connection, we are gratified at being able to state by authority that the work of onlarg the Dutch Gap Canal is now under contract the American dredging Company becoming tho contractors— and operations will bo commenced early next month. Tho Canal is to he one hundred feet wide at tho bottom and one hundred and fifty feet wide at the top, with a depth of fifteen feet.” A young Hoosier once said to a Hoosieress, ‘-Sal is there any body courtin’ you now ?” And sal replied: “Well, Sam, there is ono feller sorter courtin’ mo and sorter not, but I reck on it is moro Borter not than sorter.” A West Virginia paper reports that the people of that State are emigra ting to the West to “a fearfnl extent, ’ and that everybody seems to wish to go out because nobody is coming in. It appeals to the Legislature to take immediate measures to attract immi grants. The “most married' 1 woman of which there is any rocord, was un doubtedly the Harlem woman, spoken of by Evelyn in his diary, whose pro pensity for marrying hail finally to be checked by law. She married her twenty-fifth husband and being now a widow, was prohibited to marry in the future. DAWSON, GA., THURSDAY MARCH 2, 1871. Nearing the other Shore. When, after a weary voyage that I first made across the ocoan, sick and loatbsomo, I arose one morning and went upon the deck, holding on, crawling, thinking I was but a worm, I smelt in the air somo strango smell, and I said to the Captain, ‘Wlmt is the odor ?’ ‘lt is tho land-breeze from off Ireland.’ I smelt the turf, I smelt tbe grass, I smelt the leaves, and all my sickness departed from me; my eyos grow bl ight, my nausea was gone. The thought of the nearness of land came to mo, and cured mo better than medicine eould euro me. And when afar off I saw a dim line of land, joy came and gavo mo health, and from that moment I had neither sickness or trouble; I was coming nearer to tho land. Oh ! is there not for you, old man, and for you, wearied mother, a land breeze blowing off from heaven, wnft ing to you somo of its sweotness ? Bo hold, tho garden of the Lord is not far away ; I know from the air. Be hold the joy of home ! Do I not hear the children shout ? The air is full of music to our silent thought. Oh, how full of niusic when our journey is al most done, and wo stand upon tho bound and precinct of that blosssed land ! —Hold on to your faith. Be lieve more firmly. Take hold by irajer aud. faith. Away with trou bles and buifetings. Bo happy, you are saved. In a few hours visions of God and all the realities of tho eter nal world shall be yours, and you shall be saved with an everlasting sal vation. Manners. Young folks should be mannerly. How to be so is tho question. Many a good boy and girl feel that they can not bohave to suit thcmsolvos in the presence of company. They feel tim id, bashful and self-distrustful the moment they are addressed by a stran ger, or appear in company. Thore is but one way of getting over this feel ing and acquire graceful and easy manners, that is, to do tho host they can at hope, as well as abroad. Good manners are not learned from arbitra ry teaching as much as acquired from habit They grow upon us by uso. We must be courteous, agreetthle, civ il, kind, gentlemanly and womanly at homo, and then it will sooif becomo a kind of second nature to bo so every where. A course, rough manner at home begets a habit of roughness, which wo can not lay off if we try, when we go among strangers. The most agreeable people wo have over known in the country are those that are perfectly agreeable at home. Home is the school for all the best things, es pecially for good manners. lloiv Old are You ? There is a good deal of amusement in the following magic table of figures. It will enable you to tell bow old the young ladies are. Just hand this ta ble to a young lady and request ,hor to toll you in which column or columns her ago is contained,, add together tho figures at tho top of tho colurns in which her age is found, and you have tho great secret. Thus suppose her ago to be seventeen, you willjfind that number in the first and fifth columns, and the first, figures of these two col ums addod make seventeen. Hero is tho magic table: 1 2 4 8 10 32 33 5 9 17 33 5 6 6 10 18 34 7 7 7 11 19 35 9 10 12 12 20 30 11 11 13 13 21 37 13 14 14 14 22 38 15 15 15 15 23 39 17 18 20 24 24 40 19 19 21 25 25 41 21 26 22 26 26 42 23 23 23 27 27 43 25 26 28 28 28 44 27 27 29 29 29 45 29 30 30 30 30 4G 31 31 31 31 31 47 33 34 36 40 48 48 35 35 37 41 49 49 37 38 38 42 50 50 39 39 39 43 51 51 41 42 44 44 52 52 43 43 45 45 53 53 45 43 40 46 54 54 47 47 47 47 55 55 49 50 52 58 56 56 51 51 53 57 57 5< 53 54 54 58 58 58 55 55 55 59 59 59 57 58 60 60 60 60 59 59 61 61 61 6l 61 02 62 62 62 G‘2 63 63 63 63 63 63 Mrs. Emborling, of Prairie City, Illinois, a few evenings since, followed her husband into a village saloon, armed with an ax. Finding him en gaged with several others playing cards, she smashed the table with her ax, scattered the cards, piled up the astonished players, and carried off her husband, who had not the pluck to in terfere. Mark Twain, whose horse was so thin that he had to lean against a tree to think, was considerably beaten by a long cadaverous specimen of human ity just in from tho country, who said that he had a brother living in Cairo so poor that the sun would shine through him, and that ho had to put on an ovorcoat to make a shadow- At a California fair sevoral bottles of strained honey were put on exhibi tion, when a chap put a bottle of cas tor oil with the rest. Several old la dies sampled it with the samo result. Tho opinion of all who tried it was, that the bee who laid it was a fraud. One old lady said oven tho boes bad got to cheating now-a-days.
