AMBITION.
BY JOHN 1». DONKLAN.
If on fame’s mountain I should descry,
A seat of glory I could call my own,
Why should I not with proud ambition fly,
And flap my wings upon her lofty throne.
What tho’ my fellow creatures Jeer and
When from her airy height my
shine,
If on her dizzy sphere I pleasure quail',
I care not then, for happiness is mine.
Is man but placed upon thc earth to die,
And leave no lustre of his name behind,
Whilst endless charms seductive to the eye,
Allure him on tho cherish’d prize to find.
p
Away with such a low, degrading thought,
Tlie spirits of the past ray song shall aid,
For by ambition they have glory sought.
And left on earth great names that will
fade. " *'

Charles Dickens’ Creed.
Dickens preached—not in a church
nor from a pnlpit, but a gospel which
the people understand—the gospel of
kindness, sympathy—in a word, hu¬
manity. His creed may be found in
the following beautiful extracts on the
subject of death: golden hair lay
“Even when the in a
halo on a pillow, round tbe worn face
of a little boy, he said, with a radient
smile: ‘Deat papa and mamma, lam
sorry to leave you both, and to leave
my pretty sister; but I am called, that
I must go.’ Thus the rustling of an
angel’s wings got blended with the
other echoes and had in them the
breath of Heaven.”— A lale of Two
Cities, book 2, chap. 21.
“The dying boy made answer, ‘I shall
soon be there ’ He spoke of beautiful
gardens stretched out before him, and
were filled with figures of men, and
children, all with light upon their
faces; then whispered that ‘it was Eden,’
and so died.”— Nicholas Nickleby, chap.
58.
“It’s turned very dark, sir. Is
there any light a-coming? The cart is
shaken all to pieces, and the rugged
road i8 very near it’s end. I'm a
of gropin’—a gropin’—let Hallowed me catch hold
your hand* be thy name.”
‘ Dead ! my lord aod gentleman. Dead;
men and women, born with heavenly
compassion in your hearts. And, dving
thus around us, every day !"—Bleak
House, chop 47.
“He slowly laid his face down upon
her bosom, drew his arm closer round
ber neck, and with one parti ig sob be¬
gan the world. Not this world, ob,
not this 1 Tbe world that sets this
right."— Ibid,chap. 65. while
“If this is sleep, sit by me I
sleep. Turn me to you, for your face
is going far off, and I want to be near.
And sbe died like a child that had
gone to sleep .”—David CopperfielaL,
chap 9.
“Time, and the world were slipping
from beneath him. He’s going out
with the tide. * * * And it being
low water he went out with the tide.”
— Ibid, chap 30.
“Don’t cry I Is my chair there ? In

full of pity and grief, that would ap¬
peal to me, that solemn hand, upraised

Ancient Home.
A correspondent of the Philadel¬
phian, writiog Irom Rome, says : Ex¬
cavations at Ostia have been made
during recent years on a large scale,
and in an intelligent and judicious
manner. value, They are of peculiar historic
as the story of the city being so
well known, they cannot be used to
support theories or vague conjectures,
but become illustrative evidence of
fixed history. Ostia was also a purely
Roman city. Its remains are tbe re¬
mains of a purely Roman civilization,
unembarrassed by any Etruscan or
Felasgic admixture, and they reveal
in vivid form a perfect picture of the
daily life of ancient Roman society.
Excavations have been made which de¬
velop not only temples and batbs and
public buildings and detached walls,
but long lines of streets entering into
each other, and in one portion running
down to the once busy wharves.
Yon can walk on the streets in
which these people walked, and en¬
ter the houses in which they lived—
see the frescoes on tbe walls which
their eyes enjoyed, and go up the
stairs by which they ascended to tbe
upper floors of their dwellings. Going
down to the wharf you find their com
mission houses and shipping offices.
All around you, in vast quantities, lie
fragments of pottery—the remains of
tbe vessels and utensils they used
This pottery is generally coarser and
embellished with less ornamentation
than that found in the ruined Aztec
cities of New Mexico and Arizoua
You may tread the forum where they
met for business and exchange ; the
temple where they gathered for wor¬
ship—too bare, however, of altar or
image to know whom they wor¬
shipped; the theatre where they sat for
pleasure or relaxation. You may go
further back up tbe hill and meditate
for half a mile among the tombs where
they buried tbeir dead.
Of coarse but a small portion of tbe
vast city is excavated, but enough is
laid bare to give you a full idea of its
daily walk and manner of life. The
streets run in the same curving, irregu¬
lar lines as those of Rome to-day, and
are equally narrow. The ceilings are
high, just as in the palaces of Rome
to-day—the seme climatic conditions
producing the same results. The
warmer the and higher more delightful the cli¬
mate the ceiling everywhere
and the colder and moister the climate
the lower the jeeiling, as in Holland,
England and other Northern countries
Tbe colors of the frescoes here are as
bright as at Pompeii, tbe rooms higher
and the stairways quite a marked fea¬
ture, the Gieek traditions which condi¬
tioned the architecture of Pompeii not
conducing to high buildings.

a brother. Another reason, not to be
lightly considered is, there is just
the faintest suspicion of military rank
connected with tbe title. It is true, it
is only a bare suspicion. But unless
a person has been intimately asso

remain a shred of belief that possibly,
in the remote past, the reputed

without exception. With the excep¬
tion of doctors and preachers, every
citizen is liable, some time or o'her, to
be styled a “Colonel.” The slishtest
notoriety of any sort is quite sufficient
to convert a very modest and peace¬
able citizen into a full blown "Col¬

A Catechism for Plain Women,
When a woman loses her desire to

thing is more conducive to beauty than
cheerfulness and good humor, and no
morose or unhappy woman can be
good humored or cheerful. Then there
are vast numbers ill-tempered because
they are ugly. They do not know
what is the matter with themselves;
neither do their friends know. But
the incessant neglect and indifference
with which they are treated finally
does its work of embittering their feel

Census Incidents.
Interviews /with some of the enu
meratora, as they came in with tbeir
final reports, brought to light a large, num
ber of amusing incidents. A
red-faced Irish woman was found iu a
tenement house surrounded by a brood
of children.
tbe “Can you read and write ?” inquired
enumerator.
“lndade I can,” sbe replied. if
“Then write your name here, please” ^
said the young man, offering a pencil.
“Oh, but I don’t feel loike it, sir,"
waa the reply. will
11 Then you tell me what your
husband’s occupation is?”
"He’s an asemder and a descinder.”
“A what?”
"Och 1 thin, he's a hod-carrier 1”
with a great deal of disgust.
Another woman, the mother of seven
children, asserted that her husband
was a clerk; but ou further question¬
ing she said he worked in a wood
yard. When asked what he^ age was,
sbe replied it was forty-six; her oldest
son was thirty-tour. Alter her at¬
tention was called to tbe fact that ehe
must have been only twelve years old
atthetime of her m^rrmuft. she said
she was sixty-six.
East Broadway, between Catharine
and Pike streets, is,mainly inhabited
by Polish Hebrews and Irish. Most
of tbe rooms in the houses present
scenes of squalor and filth. In one of
the tenement houses in this district a
mother was found with a family of
three sous and thirteen daughters.
She said that none of her daughters
were married, and she thanked God
that she had them all yet. Although
