of CrawforduvlUe. Indiana, ten yearn ago. when

the English Uuguage. amt should find u place
throughout th length and breadth of America
wherever the digulty of labor i recognised:
They drive home the cows from the pasture,
l!p through the long, shady lane.
Where the quail whistles loud in the wheat held
That is yellow with ripening grain.
They find, tu tho tin ik waving grasses.
Where the scarfed -ItjHkul amt’.fberry grows,
They gather the naaiaest attoWilroi s.
.And tio tlrst erimson buds of tho rose.
Th*y toaa the hay in the im a low.

Thejk tiuKl whVr. tUediisky grapes pwple
luthe sbfWlnted Octob* r light.
They know where thv apples hang ripest,
And are sweeter than Italy’s wlues;
They know where the fruit hangs the thick' st,
Outlie long, thorny blackberry vines.
They gather tho delicate seaweeds.
And build tiny rattles of sand;
They pick up tho beautitul sea shells—
Fairy barks that have drifted to land.
They wav from the tall, rocking tree tops.
Where, the oriole’* hammock uost swings.
And at night-time are folded in slumber
liy a song that a loud mother sings.
Those who toll bravely are strongest ;
The humble and poor become great;
And from those brown-handed children
Hhall grow mighty rulers of State.
The pen Of the author and statesman.
The noble and wise of the land.
The sword and chisel aud pallette.
Khali be held iu tho little brown hand.
The King And (lir Hidden.
The King was visiting the village
school, and when tho examination
was over ho spoke to a bright little
girl named Christinoben:
“Little maiden, you said your poem
so well that I am sure you go to a
very good sehool; and have an excel
lent teacher; so I must examine you
a little. To which kingdom does
this orange belong?”
“To the vegetable kingdom,” said
the little maid, without a moment's
delay, while Herr Sehunke could
scarcely keep on his feet from
anxiety and excitement.
"And this?” taking a ight. gold
piece from his purse.
“To the mineral kingdom,”
“Right—right, my little maid. And
now iell me this : To which kingdom
do 1 belong?”
He? to which kingdom did he be
long? Chrtstinehen looked at him
with wide-open, solemn eyes, up aud
down. She had had object-lessons on
the camel and the elephant, t he crow
and the magpie; and had ever been
allowed to hold the stuffed forms of
tho last two for a moment in her lit
tle hands; but. a king! She laid
never had such a subject for an ob
ject-lesson : but she .remembered
that she always said his name evory
day in Iter prayers. So she raised her
blue eyes confidently to him,and said,
modestly, hut very clearly:
"To the kingdom of Heaven.”
And the King caught the little maid
en up iu his aims and kissed her, re
membering who had said to what
kingdom she and such ns she belong
ed, and wished he might grow each
day more like to them, and so have
the promised right to belong there
too. As he set her gently down, aud
dropped tho gold piece and the or
ange in her apron, all the mothers
that stood around with clasped hands
sobbed, under their breath, “God
bless him!” ami even the Burgomas
ter blew his nose.

Wai-HUta)millin'.
Lord Macaulay, the great essayist
aud historian, wrote these words:
“Children, look in those eyes, lis
ten to that dear voice, notice the feel
ing of even a single touch that is be
stowed upon you by that gentle hand!
Make much of it while yet you have
that most precious or all gifts a
loving mother. Read the unfathom
able love of those eyes; the kind anx
iety of that tone and look, however
slight your pain. In after life you
may have friends -fond, dear, kind
friends; but never will you have again
the inexpressible love and gentleness
lavished upon you which none hut a
mother bestows'. Often, do I sigh in
my struggles with the hard, uncaring
world, for the sweet, deep security J
felt when, of an evening, nestling in
her bosom, I listened to some quiet
tale, suitable to my age, read in her
tender and untiring voice. Never can
I forget her sweet glances east upon
me when 1 appeared asleep; never
tier kiss of peace at night. Years
have passed away since we laid her
beside my father in tile old church
yard; yet still her voice whispers
float tho grave,anil her eye watches
over me as I visit spots long since
hallowed to the memory of my moth
er.”

Believe in yourself.
It is said that when John C. Cal
houn was in Yule College he was rid
iculed by his fellow students for his
intense application to study. “Why,
sirs,” said lie, “i am forced to make
tlm most of my lime that I may ac
quit myself creditably when in Con
gress. Do you doubt it? 1 assure you
if [ wore not convinced of myabiiity
to reach the national cupftol as a rep
resentative within three years, i
would leave college this very day.”
Let every young man thus have faitli
in himself, and earnestly take hold of
life scorning all props and buttresses,
all crutches and life preservers. Let
him believe, with IVstulozzi, that no
man on God’s earth is either willing
or able to help any other man. Let
him strive to tie a creator rather than
a borrower. Instead of wielding the
rusted sword of various forefathers,
let him forge his own weapons, and,
conscious of the God in him and the
Providence over him, let him fight
his own battles with his good lance.
Instead of sighing for an education,
capital, for friends, and declaring
that “if lie had only had these lie
would be somebody,” let him remem
ber that, as Horace Greeley said, he is
looking iu the wrong end of the tele
scope, for if lie were somebody he
would speedily have all the boons
whose absence he is bewailing, in
stead of being one of the foiled poten
tialities of which the world is so full
—one of the subjunctive lifiroes, who
always might, could, would, or should
do great tilings, is what nobody can
understand—let him bo in the imper
ative mood, and do that which ids
talents are indicative. This lesson
once learned and acted on, and every
man will discover within himself, un
der God, the elements and capacities
of usefulness and honor, “Getting on
in tho world.”
Who Arp Rich?
The man with good firm health is
rich. . ,
So is the man with a clear con
science.
So is the parent with vigorous chil
dren. . . ,
So is an editor of a good paper with
a big subscription list.
So is a clergyman whose coat the
children pluck when he passes them
in their play.
So is the wife who has the whole of
the heart of a good husband.
So is the child who goes to sleep
with a kiss on his lips, and for whose
waking. a blessing awaits.
So is the maiden whose horizon is
not bounded by the coining man, but
who has a purpose in life, whether
she meets him or not.
So is the young man who, laying
his hand on his heart, can say: “I
have treated every womarn I ever
met.as I should wish my sister treat
ed by other men.”
The horrid men poke a good deal
of fun at the pull-back dresses now
worn, but they like to see them for
all that.

rental!' Reality.
Here is encouragement for those
who grieve over the thought that
female beauty soon fades.
“History is full of accounts of tho
fascinations of women who were no
longer young. Thus Helen of Troy
was over forty when she perpetrated
the most famous elopement on re
cord; and as the siege of Troy lasted
a decade she could not have been
very juvenile when the ill fortune of
Paris restored her to her husband,
who is reported to have received her
with unquestioning love and grati
tude. Pericles wedded the curtesan
Aspasin when she was thirty-six,
and yet she afterwards for thirty
yearsor more, wielded an undiinished
reputation for beauty. Cleopatra was
past thirty when Anthony fell under
her spell, which never lessened until
her death, nearly ten years after;
and Livia was thirl y-tliree when she
won the heart of Augustus, over
whom she maintained her ascend
ancy to tho last.
“Turning to more modern history,
where it, is possible to verify dates
more accurately, we have tile extra
ordinary Diane do Poritiers, who
was thirty-six when Henry the Sec
ond (then Duke of Orleans, and just
half her age) became attached to her :
and she was held as tho lirst. ladyand
most beautiful women at court up to
the period of that monarch’s death,
and tin: accession to power of Catha
rine of Me.dicis. Anna of Austria
was thirty-eight when she was said
to be tho handsomest queen of
Europe, and when Buckingham and
Richelieu were her jealous admirers.
Ninon tie l’Eiielos, the must, celebrat
ed wit and beauty of her day, wns
the idol of three generations of the
golden youth of France, and she was
seventy-two when the Abbedo Berais
fell in love wit h tier. True it is that
in thi‘ ease of this lady a rare combi
nation of culture, talents, and per
sonal attractions endowed their pos
sesor seemingly with the gifts of eter
nal youth. Blanca Capelin was thir
ty-eight when the Grand Duke Fran
cisco fell captive toiler charms and
made her his wife, though he was
live years her junior. Louis the
Fourteenth wedded M !m *. do Main
tenon when slm was forty-three
years of age. (lathrine the second
of Russia was thirty-three when she
seized l lie empire of Russia ami cap
tivated the dashing young General
Orloff. Up to the time of her death,
fat sixty-seven' she seemed to have re
tained the same bewitching powers,
for the lamentations were heart felt,
among all those wiio had ever known
her personally. Mile Mars, tho cele
brated French tragedienne, only at
tained the zenith of her beauty and
power between forty and forty-five.
At that period the loveliness oflier
hands and arms especially was cele
brated throughout Europe. Tho fa
mous Mine. Reeamier was thirty
eight, when Burras was ousted from
power, and she was without dispute
declared to he the most bautiful wo
men in Europe, which rank she held
for fifteen years.” Exchange.
Woman's charm ol ivecillc-work.
There is something exquisitely
pleasant and touching—at least, of a
very sweet, soft and winning effect--
in this peculiarity of needle-work,
distinguishing men from women.
Our own sex is incapable of any such
by-play aside from t lie main business
of life; but women—be they of what
earth I v rank they may, however gift
ed with intellect, or genius, or endow
ed with artful beauty have always
some little handiwork ready to till up
the tiny gap of every vacant moment.
A needle is familiar to the lingers of
them all. A queen, no doubt, plies
it on occasions; the woman-poet can
usoit as adroitly as her pen ; the wo
man’s eye that has discovered anew
star turns from its glory to send a
polished little instrument, gleaming
along tho hem of her kerchief, or to
darn a causal flaw in her dress. And
they have the advantage of us in this
respect. The slender thread of silk
or cotton keeps t hem united with the
small, familiar, gentle interests of
life ; the continually operating influ
ences do much for the health of the
character, and carry off what would
otherwise be a il.ingerous accumula
tion of morbid sensibility. A vast
deal of human sympathy runs along
this electric line, stretching from tho
throne to the wicker chair of the
humblest seamstress, and keeping
high and low in a species of common
union with their kindred beings. Me
thinks it is a token of healthy and
gentle characteristics when women
of accomplishments and high
thoughts love to sew, especially as
they are never more at homo with
their hearts, than when so occupied.
—Hawthorn ’ “Marble Fawn."

It is only by thinking that a man
can know himself. Yet ail other
know legs without this is ignorance.
Not a glance merely, but much close
examination will be requisite, for the
forming of a true opinion of your
own powers. Ignorance and self con
ceit always tend to make you over
rate your personal ability— asa slight
degree of knowledge may make a
timip mind pass upon himself too
humble a judgement. It is only by
thinking, and much impartial ob
seving, that a man can discover his
real disposition. A hasty temper
only supposes itself properly alive;
an Indolent iridulger imagines he is
I active as any one; bnt by close and
severe examination each may dis
cover something nearer the truth.
