TOUNG MEN
Who have Injured themselves by a certain prac

ctlecl of which are nightly full, even when
asleep, and l( not cured, renders niarriagv Impos

What a pity that a young man, the hope of his
country, the darling of his parents, should be
snatched from all prospects and enjoymeuta of
life, by the consequence or deviating from me
path of nature aud iudulgiug in a certain secret
habit. Such persons hi st, before contemplating
MARRIAGE,
reflect that a souud mind and body are the most
necessary requisites to promote connubial happi
ness. Indeed without these, the journey through
life become a weary pilgrimage: the prospect
hourly darkens to the view i the mind becomes
shadowed with dcsiair und tilled with the melan
choly reflection, that the huppiues of another
become blighted with ournwn.
a CERTAIN DISEASE.
When the misguided und imprudent votary of
pleasure finds that he has imbibed the seeds of
this painful diaaasc, it loo often happens thut an
ill-tiincd sense of hume, or dread of dUvovory,
deters him from applying to those who, from
educatlou and resimciubility, can alone befriend
him, delaying till the constitutional symptoms of
this horrid disease make their appearance, such
as ulcerated sore throat, diseased nose, noetural
pains la the head and limbs, dimuess of sight,
deafness, nodes on the shin bones aud arms,
blotches on the head, face and extremities, pro
gressing with frightful rapidity, till ut lust the
palate of the mouth or the bones of the nose fall
In, and the victim of this awful disease become
a horrid object of commiseration, till death puts
a period to his dreadful suffering, by sending
him to "that Undiscovered Country from w'leucc
uo traveller returns."
It Is a melancholy fact that thousauds DIE
Victims to this terrible disease, through falling

TKNDERS, who, by the use of that deadly Poi

A MUTUAL RUNAWAY. '
'Your aunt Carlton ftucl Cofisln Jennla
will bo here In tho next train; Russell,' said
Mr. Wilder to his nephew. You had bet
ter bring the pony chaise and bring them
from the ' . . ,,.
'Can'L Am going away myself, sir. .
'The the d 1 you are P responded the
old tentremnn, pushing his spectacles up
over his forehead and regarding his nephew
with an air of surprise and consternation."
'Yes, sir. Charley Jlunt invited roe out
to his place for a few weeks, and I thought
that I might as well po now as any time.
'I should say that U was" n very strange
time to be leaving home. Your onnt and
cousin will consider It a personal affront,
sir. ' , ' :..
'It is not intended at such, sir. Though,
to be frank, considering the ohjoct of Jen
nie's visit, I prefer not to see li'er. And I
must say that 1 think she would have shown
more sense of delicacy if she had stayed
awav.' "
'l'our cousin is a very lovely girl, ilr.
Impudence, and won't be likely to go beg
ging. - - -
'I don't doubt it in the least. But for
all that she won't suit me tor a wife, uncle.'
,'llow do you know that, you conceited
young donkey, when you have never seen
her ?' inquired the irate old man bringing
his cane down upon the floor with startling
emphasis. ' ' "
'Common sense teaches me that no mar
ringe can be happy that docs not spring
from mutual love. And on one thing I am
resolved, that I will uevcr marry for mer
cenary motives.'
'Nobody wants you to marry the girl
unlcso you like her I' roared Mr. Wilder,
his face growing purplo with rngcand vex
ation nt his nephew's perversity. 'All I
ask is that you will stay and see her. And
this is a point that I insist upon yes, sir,
I insist upon it I'
'I am sorry to disobey you, uncle; but
if I should slay it will only give riso to
conclusions that I am anxious to avoid.
But I will tell you what I will do ; I will
relinquish all claim to the properly that
you are so anxious should hot be divided.
As that seems to be tho main object. I
think that it ought to be satisfactory to all
parlies."
A tew minutes later Russell passed by
the window, valiso in hand.
lie nodded good humorcdly to his uncle,
nt lie glanced in, who glared uftcr him in
speechless Tiigo.
'He bhim't have a penny-nota penny!'
he grow led. as, sinking bak in his chair,
he wiped the pn.spi ration from his fora
hend. 'What's the matter now ?' said tho gen
tle voice of his wife Tolly, who had jul
entered tharoom.
'Mailer tnouj.li, I should sny. Russell
has gone actually cleared out, so as not to
see his cousin. Wlial do you think of that?'
'I think you will haw another ultaek f
the gout if you get yourself so e.oitcd,
said tho good lad, aa bho placidly resumed
he knitting.
'What's to bo done now ?'
'Xothiug that I cnu nee. If Husscll and
Jeuuiu had seen each other liefore they had
any notion that you wanted them to marry,
leu to one but they would have fallen head
and ears iu love with each other ; but as
matters are now I don't Micvo it would be
of the least use. From what Ellen writes
me I think Jcnuie is as much opposzd to it
ns Husscll. .She says she can't bear to hear
his name mentioned, aud that it was as
much as she could do to got her consent to
come al all when she heard that Russell
was at home.'
'They arc a couple of simpletons,' said
the old gentleman, testily. i've got half
a mind to make another will and leave my
property to some charitable institution.'
In going to Dighton, whither he was
bound, Russell Wilder had to travel part
of the way by stage.
There was only one passenger beside
himself, fur which he was not sorry, the
(iuv being very hot and sultry.
This passenger was a lady ; there was an
air of unmistakable ladyhood about her
which told him that. He noticad particu
larly tho daintily-gloved hands aud well
lltting boots.
Her graceful form Indicated thatshe was
both young and pretty, but he could not
see her tiice on accouut of the envious veil
that hid it
But as soon as she got comfortably set
tled in the corner, to which Kussell assisted
her, she threw it back, disclosiug a fair,
sweet face, lighted by a pair of wondrously
bright black eyes, which shot a swift, be
wildering glance Into his that were so In
tently regarding her.
The sudden starling of the coach, which
sent some of the lady's parcels from the
seal to the floor, gave Russell an opportu
nity of speaking, as ho returned them, of
which. he was not slow to take advantage.
From this they fell easily into conversa
tion ; and it was curious how sociable they
became.
They talked of the beautiful scenery
through which they were passing ; of the
newest books and latest magazines, some of
which Russell had with him.
The lady inwardly thought her compan
ion to bo the most entertaining nnd agree
able man she had ever met with. And as
for Russell, he often lost the thread of bis
discourse in admiring the red, dimpled lips,
nnd the pearly teeth they disclosed when
ever she spoke or smiled.
Certain it is that his four hours' ride
from V to Dighton were tho shortest
four hours he had ever known in his life.
'Where do you want to be left, sir ' In
quired the coachman as he entered the vil
lage. 'At Mr. Charles Hunt's, Locust Hill.
Do you know where that is ?' said Russell,
pulling his head out of the window.
Certainly, sir; takoyou there inajiffy.'
Whv, there') where I'm going I' said
the lady, opeuing her eyes widely, 'Kelly ,
Mr. Hunt's wilb is my most particular
friend ; wa usod to go to school together.'
'Ami Charley Hunt is my most particu
lar friend, aud one of the tiucst fellows in
the world.'
How very odd.'
How very fortunate,' exclaimed Russell,
with a inclining glance at his fair compan
ion which made the rosy cheeks still more
rosy. 'Might I lake the liberty of inquir

- In a moment, Rusfx ll was shaking hands
with the former, while his companion rush

'Whv, what a happy surprise, Jennie,'
she tuid, after spirit iug her off to her own

'And I had no Idea of bomgttble to come
until just before I started. Yon see, mam
uin, my step-mother, you know was
goiug to uncle Wiilard's, and she Insisted
on my goiug with her, to see that hateful,
disagreeable cousin of mine that' they arc
determined I should marry. So when she
was busy packing I Just put on my things
and slipped oft leaving a nolo to tell where
I was going. Was not that a good Joke on
them All V ' ,
I should think it was, said ifcllio, with
a burst of merriment far more than tlie oc
casion warranted. "When I saw who
your, companion was, I thought you wcro
ou your wedding tour." :- i
".No, indeed $ never saw the man until
he got on the stage at . Bat he is
the finest looking man I ever saw, and so
agreeable. Who is ho?" ,. ...
"Oli, I'll introduce you when you come
down stairs. . There's Sarah waiting to Bee
me about supper. You will have only time
to dress. Mind yon look your prettiest,"
And with a roguish shake of her finger
at her friend Nellie, ran awav to sec about
supper.
If Jeunie did not look her prettiest she
looked very lovely as she entered the sup.
per-room, her linen suit exchanged for a
fresh, soft muslin, whose simplicity and pu
rity were relieved ouly by the violet-colored
ribbons in the hair and at the throat.
. Russell hnd also laken great pains with
his toilet, ns could lie seen by the spotless
lincu and carefully arranged hair.
The pause that was followed by Jennie's
entrance was broken by Mr.- Hunt, who, in
response to a meaning glance from his wife
said :
"Russell, allow me to introduce you to
your cousin Jennie ; Miss Caruon, your
cousin, Russell Wilder."
Tho embarrassment which followed the
blank astonishment into which the an
nouncement threw the parties, so unex
pectedly made known to each other, was
quickly dispelled by the turn that was giv
en to the conversation by the host and hos
tess.'" . i .. . , ,,,..-, i
"I suppose you'll want to book yourself
for the next stage V said Mr. Hunt, slyly,
to Russell, who had been taken into his
friend's confidence.
'And you,' said his w!fc, turning to Jen
nie, 'I don't suppose auvthing would tempt
you to remain, stow that you have tccn
mat iiaicim, disagreeable .'
'.Nellie,' interrupted Jennie, crimsoning.
as she remembered her words.
'Woll, I won't then. But you must let
me laugh. Just think of you runuing in
the same direction nnd to the same place I'
The riui'ing laugh that burst from Nel
lie's lips was ton contagious to be resisted
even by those at whose expenso it m
cd.
This merriment wna followed by a gen
eral good feeling, and a pleasauter tc-t par-,
ty never gathered around tho social board.
We need hatdly say that Russell did not
tnk" the stage the next morning, nor did
Jcnuie scciu ut nil disposed to cut short her
visit ou account of her cousin's unexpected
appearance.
When iney ma go tney went as tuey

Mr. ' AY ilder's astonishment was only
equalled by his delight, on looking out of
the wi.iuow, io roe the iwo walking up the
pat'i towards the house, nr;n in arm, and
ajipnrcntly ou tho best of 'ernid.
As for Russell and Jennie, they seemed
to regard this unexpected meeting as an in
dication of their manifest destiny, ac
cepting it ns such, much to the joy of their
unci';, wliohe dar.ing wish '.vas accomplish

IIEMIY CXAY.
Uupabliabed Anecdote or (he Great
Keutucklan.
The course of Mr. Clay on the compro
mise measures was very unsatisfactory to
the South, and his own State denounced
his actiou as freely as any. If was the usu
al custom on his arrival home to spcud the
summer months for a large concourse of
people were to be present to welcome and
shake hands witb him wheu he left the
stage. Now, excepting a few personnl
friends, there were none ; and they had
even talked of electing a Democrat in his
place. Clay got into his carriage, which
was as rickety a concern as can well be im
agined, and rode home iu moody silence.
We kuew he was mad, aud said among
ourselves : 'There will be h 11 to pay.'
The following day he did not go out. Du
ring the second day bis servant went to
his room and informed him that a crowd
was at the front door. 'Begone I' was the
only response. The negro went down and
told the crowd that 'Mr. Clay was quite
unwell, aud tho faligud of travel had greatly
prostrated him. Tho doctor had just left
and forbidden his seeing company, but lie
would be happy to see them as soon as
able.' For several days this went on.
People then begau to call rueetiugs and
send committees. The State olliccrs finally
took it up and iuvited him to give an ad
dress. I never shall forget that speech.
His voice was like a bugle, and swelled to
trumpet calls. His eyes glowed like fire.
He frothed at the mouth, aud dolled them
with the eloquence and power of a demon.
But it took the gallant Kentuckians by
storm, and lie was again elected to the
United States Senate. --
Clay owed 840,UO0 for which there was a
mortgage on Ashland. The interest was
always paid punctually, but he could uevcr
reduce the piiucipal, and this at length
became a source of great annoyance to
him. In IcU4, when 7m visited tho bauk
to pay the iuierest as usual, the old French
clerk handed nut the uote. 'What does
this mean l" inquired Clay, uudnr the im
pression tliat they liad refused jto let it run
any longer ; and he knew no way to meet
it. 'The uote is canceled sir,' relied the
, clerk ; 'you owe this bank nothiug.' 'My
God t' said Clay, 'have I friends as good
as this I' He was olfeuted to tears, which
is said to be the only tiuio ho was ever
kuowu to weep.
John Clay was a wild, reckless fellow,
aud the favorite of bis mother. In these
days it was not beneath aVoman'i diguily
to do somcthiug, aud she would often take
to kniltiug, or pick berries, which she
would semi to town ; and John would soon
be ou a spree with the tuouey. She was
one of that sort who cau never do enough
good in the world and use all the exertions
to uioviate distress and the suffering around
Cue uight it was whispered around among
us boys thai John Clay had gone to light a

Clay to come from his study and lead the

pression of the Old man's face. ' lie had a
terrible eye when aroused, and now it flash
ed tire, lie seemed to rise to the height of
two ordinary men. . Ho took a stop back
ward and with his hand raised to tho full
length of his long arm, nnd with his fingers
quivering toward heaven, said with a voice
which went through me like an electric
shock : 'My dear woman, if John is right,
In God's nnmo let him fight, by God 1' The
poor woman went back to ler room to

room, whercTic alelns toast and drank his
tea in silence, and then returned to his
study to road. Whatever his feeling ns a
father might be, they were not shown in
his. coutitcnnnco or appearance. 1-have
seen i"orrcst, Macrcatly and Booth, but
they ttre tame to the'vo'ice, gesture und eye
of Cln'y on that occasion.
In tho fall ofl843 Longworth of Cmcin.
nati sent to Mr. Clay a demijohn of native
wiue. Mr. Longworth had imported the
grape seed from wino makers iu Italy, and
prided himself on having n splendid thing.
It was a five gallon deniijohu, ihu stopper
was covered with wax, aud stamped wil'j
the letter There were six of us boys
in the family, averaging some sixteen or
seventeen years old. We used to study in
the evening in our room, and would bor
row the cellar key of Mrs; Clay and bring
a pitcher of cider and a hat full of apples
to, help us along in our lessons. One uight
it was proposed we hhouli! tuste ofthe Cin
cinnati Wine. We found a corkscrew, and
carried up a pifehcrful. It was capital,
and before many days we fuund the demi
john empty. We knew Clay was liable to
want it at any time, nnd it must be tilled.
On the following night we took a servant
who toted the big bottle on his head to a
store-room two or two and a-half miles
away, kept by a negro, where he had it
filled with wh sky at fifteen cents a tyllon;
which, with a quarter we gve the boy for
helping us along, cost us a dollar. We bad
hard work getting this demijohn back to
the house it was not shaped right for easy
carrying but at length it was safe in the
cellar. We had previously made some wax
about tho color of that which was on the
stopper, and had carved a letter "I' out
of a piece of bark. The bottle was duly
sealed, stamped and deposited in its proper
place. In 1841 the prostcts were that Mr.
Clay might be President, aud ho thought
so himself. IIo gave a grand diuner,
among his guests being John J. Crittenden
and Tom Corwin. Kvery one was in the
best of spirits, nud after the ladies retired
the merriment was even higher than before.
We remained, never being excluded from
lo . (rmnl dinners. As tho party were about
rising, Clay said : 'Gentlemen, I have some
of the finest wiue in the world, and the fW
native American ever manufactured ; and
thetc can be no nioro filling opportunity
for testing its merits than tho present.
John, do you know whereabouts in the cel
lar that bottle of wino is, which was sent
mo from Cincinnati ?' 'Yes, sir' replied
t lie servant. 'Do you think, John, you can
bring that demijohn, uuder your a, nnd
not shako it up i" 'Yes sir.' 'Well-go.'
In a few minutes John cau-e Lack with
that big r.ve-:a'lon demijohn under his
arm. "Now, John, set it down and take
out tho cork." The cork came out pretty
easy it had been out before. 'Now, John, '
lake thai demijohn in under your arm j
r.gain, and lilt out a little in all the glasses.' I
J hn again took the demijohn under his '
arm aud went around tilling all the Kinases. ;
while we looked on iu woeful Hiteucr. 'Now i
gcutlemcn,' continued Way, 'we will dtiuk I
tins sunuiug, to the health or my friend
Longworth of Cincinnati.' He raised the
fcl.tss to his lips, stopped and gave a look
about the table. We six were just going
out of the door ; in singlu file, just as fast
as out legs could carry us. We heard the
word 'Boys I' in the lion-voice of Clay, but
the remainder of the sentence was drowned
in the shouts of laughter from his guests.
Formerly a very large, well-known, and
somewhat noted billy goat roamed at large
in the streets of Washington, and the news
paper boys, boot blacks, aud street imps
generally made common cause against him.
Clay never liked to see dumb animals
abused or worried, and on one occasiou
while passing down tho avenue a large
crowd of theso mischievous urchins were
al their usual sport. Mr. Clay with his
walking-stick, drove them away, giving
them a sound lect tre in tho meanwhile.
As tney scampered nud scattered in every
direction, Billy seeing no one but Mr. Clay
within reach, made a charge on liim. Clay
dropped his cano and caught his goatsliip
by the horns. The goat would rear up,
being nearly as high as the tall Kentuckiau
himself, and the latter would pull him down
ngain. This sort of sport becaino t iresome,
and he could conceive of no way by which
he could free himself from tho two-horned
dilemma, so in his desperation he sang out
to tho boys to know whnt to do. One of
tho smallest iu tho crowd bhouted back ;
Let go nnd run you d d fool !' Clay al
ways maintained that though he signed the
treaty of peace at Ghent, yet tiiat ragged
boy knew more than he did.
.Travelling iu Siberia.
Lovers of good sleighing van be satisfied
to the full in Siberia, aud have a ruuge of
thousands of miles without fear of a thaw
or of bare ground. But it is very cold, and
one must wear thick clothing to keep
warm. I frequently saw tho thermometer
forty degrees below zero, and sometimes it
gets below sixty. Every tiling that cau be
frozen becomes solid. We carried some
soup, frozen into cakes like small bricks,
and we had a piece of roast beef that look
ed and fell like red granite.
The horses used to become white iu a
short time no matter what their original
color was ; the long hair round their nos
trils usod to be covered with frost from
their breath, and sometimes they resem
bled the rows of spikes that farmers put
around th noses of weaning calves. In
the coldest morning there is generally a
fog, or ftCRt-cloud resting near tho earth,
from the freezing aud fulling of all the
watery particles of the atmosphere. In
the coldest nights tho stars are very brilli
ant, aud tho brightest of them seem to burn
like diamonds.
For my winter journey I had a suit of
clothing made from a pair ot blankets. On
my foct I had my ordinary wooleu socks,
men a pair of squirrel-skin socks, then
some sheepskin Blockings that came up to
my kne, nud then some boots of reindeer
skin reaching as high up as -bools could
possibly go. My leather boots I packed
away in my sleigh, and had no use for
Ihein while? wa traveling.
Outside of my ordinary clothing I had a
sheep-skiu coat, with the fur iuside, nr.i
buttoued arouud me ; and outside of this
I had a docr-skin coat that touched the
ground when I stood erect, and was large
enough iuside for a man and a boy. Iu
collat as a foot wide, and, when turned
up io front, r completely concealed my
head.

Hi. WW
Life. Life is what we make it. To
some this may appear stning.as all are
apt to look forward to llfo as r. peruelual
sriison of sunshine, little thlnktn- t-f'those
dark and troublesome days, the shudnw ( r
which sooner or later overtake thr ni. The
school boy, with rosv cheeks, laughing "s
find Jn ful step, in life's early morn' t.nuks
the school the happiest spot in hi i;u'i
world ; hd enjoys the recreations, w! .! :;is
less favored comnaniou is imvc'op'-d in
those gloomy shadows. To one lir .in
deed beautiful ; to tho Other it ! I :t i
lime of trials, passing through life n: U- '
wo may. We soon become aware th;-.'
ter our school days are over, at. d r,- v .i
ttire forth upon the arena of life, It is ;, :
that we fullv realize our duty; 'lis . .
that we sec life in nil its reality. It, is :
of many that their life has beeu one of con
tinual light, or a pathway strewn with ri
ses ; while ou the other hand wo may f.nii
those whom nature hns lavished her nif: 3
upon we think nothing but happints Is
theirs, yet oftentimes wo are mis' .!: -j
Their sky is darkened, ns it werr. n
cloud dark and heavy, svjem roady to hi .. .
upon them. To such a person lite is In .
dreary, unless waste of time. A wii: :
once said :
"The world's Vast heritage Is Ms
Who most eijjojs.mosl loves,imd rrloft fj elves."
We nrc not placed in Ibis beavjliful .l'.l
to make ourselves miserable by wih!i.(, i'-r.-that
we have nol constantly looking n:
the shadowy side, and forgetting there i.i
never a cloud without a silver lining. Ku
joy life while we may ; be happy, sjieak a
kind and loving word to the downcast or
nfflicted ; ever have a smile of encourage
ment for the little one. Such kindness
costs nothing and yet we cannot tell how
much good it can do. Never repress the
innocent lnughter of childhood, for we
know not what may be in store for them.
"Mirth Is the medicine of liTc,
It cures its ills, It culms lu strife j
Ii softly smooths the brow of eure,
And writes a ihoitnd graces there."
We can look out upon this lovely land
scape and say I see no beauty in the works
of nature. Lvery thing, from the smallest
blade of grass to the loftiest tree ofthe for
est, speaks of God's love 1 1 us. He has
adorned the earth with beauty for enjov
ment. Though the cold shadow of misfor
tune may cross your path, do not indulj,::
in morbid faticies. Exert yourself to use
those talents which have been given you to
win the love of your fellow mortals.
Life's pathway may be darkened. f.t:
may assail yon, aud yet though nil r:y.r m
bcr the darkest hour is just before dawn.
We shall see life in all its beauty and love
liness when we learn the spirit of rj;

There's Nothing is the Paper..
"There's nothing iu the paper," is a remar'c
often beard. As to what a parer shorn i
publish or be seasoned with, readers dil'o!
as much in opinion as they do in thesaucs
and condiments they use at tueir meals, for
what is keenly relished by ouo is rejected
by another. One has a troublesome neigh
bor who is his pet antipathy, and wheu the
latter is guilty of some slip in his morals
the former tsikes care the reporter shah hear
it, and when he does not see it in the i ven
ing issue, he throws it nside with a "Pooh !
there's nothing iu the pa;.er." AnutLar,
who shirks paying bis taxes, takes no inte
rest in the election nnd choice of try olli
errs, throws the burden of his own inert
ness un other men's shoulders, and then, if
the mt'.uicipr.l machine does noiruu smooth
ly ho wants the printer to regulate it,expceta
him to write and publish leading articles
upon the grievance and if he does not,
'there's nothiug in the paper." A case
gets into the Mayor's court, the il. vils of
which are humilfuliug to our comn.u i hu
manity. If those details arc not tbi Incom
ing in tho local column "there's noihiug
worth rt-adiu there."
But few readers have an idea of the
strange and unreasonable requests made of
the editor. He is asked to prim that which
would involve him in litigation, possibly
for the balance of his lite ; he is jHilitely re
quested lo publish articles that would give
grave offence to esteemed friends ; poetry
that has neither sense, sentiment, nor
rhyme ; essavs that have nonoiut : snuibs.
carrying slinging personalities ; correspon
dence kerning with inuendo, and religious
cant savoring strouglyof blasphemy or hy.
pocracy, and when these nrs not published
according to order, "there's nothing in tho
paper."

Who can elevate its diguily 't Nol to makfl
laws, nut to lead armies, not to govern

achieved. Such is her destiny ; to visit

brethren and disciples flee, to renviin un
