112 Jamils For the American Presbyterian; STAND UP FOR JESUS. The following line* were written by a Sabbath School scholar, shortly after the death of the Rev. Dndley A. I yng. They were suggested by the last words of that lamented clergyman. Stand up for Jesus—send the word To earth’s remotest hound, ’Till all the nations of the world Are joyful in the sound. “ Re saw us ruined in the fall, And left his starry crown; ” To save this world from sin and wo, On wings of love came down. Then stand up—stand up for Jesus, Who dwells above the sky; Who gave His lift, that you might live, And not forever die. ' Stand up—stand up for Jesus, - As all the righteous do; ' And then before His Father—God— He will stand up for you. Stand up for Jesus, ye who tread The heavenly paths of peace; Stand up for Jesus, and your lights, Let not their burning Cease. Be watchmen in the way of lift,. To guide the wanderer home; Show him his Saviour on the cross, And sweetly bid him come. Stand up for Jesus, ye who’ve just Begun the narrdw,.way; Be zealous in your hew born love;. That you may ever say J will Stand up for Jesus, Come happiness or wo; And gird the gospel armor ad, To vanquish every foe. Stand up for JesuS, let the sound Resound from every shore; From Jew and Gentile, bond and free, To eease—oh nevermore. And when that last great day shall come, We’ll be received above; Washed and made free from all our sins, Triumphant in His love. “YE ARE NOT YOUR OWN.” BY MARIE ROSEAU.

For the American Presbyterian. GRAND PA’S PETS., CONCLUDED. For a little while the “storm” raged! Un consciously Carrie had touched a chord wbioh vi brated very painfully 1 I was aroused by Grand Pa's Voice. He had missed me, for I had staid too" long and beeti 1 too quiet.' “What are you ■doing, Blanch—darling? Come here!” How self-condemned I felt! The curtains were parted and in another moment a pale tearful face was bid on Grand Pa’s shoulder!—Carrie was asleep. •—She'had grown tired of talking, and the long silken lashes veiled her beautiful eyes. A smile Si her lips. She was very, very beautiful! d Pa threw Ohe arm about me and said, “You are exhausted, .dear child, with excitement I There is no new trouble, is there, Pet ? ” Then he looked at the sleeping child fondly—then at mq! I un derstood the glance and replied —trembling with emotion—“Oh, no! no! dear, dear Grand Pa! Ttm her!—indeed I do! It is not that I” And seizing his hand, I covered it with impassioned kisses! For several minutes he held me tightly to, his heart-—my head upon his Bhoulder. After a while, he said, in a soft whisper—“ Let me see you smile, darling! Then you may go ‘ watch for Alice P ” I could then!—although it was a tear ful one.• Grand Pa was satisfied. He kissed me very tenderly—then I went back to my place at the window. ..Jealous of Carrie? Oh no indeed! Af thousand times No!—I mentally exclaimed, when I had gained my retreat. I knew, I knew that my place in my beloved Grand Pa’s heart would never be filled by another! • I was not only “Little Blanch” to him, but, the child of his own peerlessly beautiful Helen ! His worshipped, idolized, gifted, ehild!--whose wondrous love and devotion to her father, had brought Mm such great consolation amid his fear ful trials!—A love, too, which,'strange as It may seem, had occasioned her intense suffering! No! I was, and would be, “the Best Beloved!” Al though little Carrie would be the object'of much tenderness aad many caresses, I was glad for that ! My precious orphan darling !—Her life should be the richer for my love and care! Thus 1 vowed, as X pressed my face against the gloss, anxiously Watching for my dear friend Alice. , She was a little girl on whose sweet face the light of twelve summer suns had shone. A tall, noble-looking child, with a clear, dark complexion, brown hair, which looked like shadowed thoughts, and large, earnest hazel eyes, wherein you might read the story of high resolve and great deeds! The roses on Alice’s cheeks were' only eclipsed by those in our own garden, and hardly that! There was a sweet dignity in her manners as well qe a true lady-like gentleness! With these traits of character, Alice had still a real love of what I called fun /—but which Alice, herself, persisted In calling pleasure! Her laugh rang through the house so joyously! You would have known in a moment such music came from a guileless heart. Somehow there was a great charm about the child that every one felt and acknowledged! Alice never did anything wrong—at least, I could never disuover it. She bad a great influence over me, although there was nothing inker sweet reproofs like a “ lecture.” Yes! We were great friends! Her sweet temper and her winning gentleness soothed my irritability, while her happy spirit— yet mature thoughtfulness —made her the best possible companion to the wayward, impulsive, motherless child! Her father was a sea captain, and when the Albion was wrecked off the coast of New Pound land "the noble commander made such astonish ing efforts to save the lives of the passengers ind crew, that hot few lives were loßt. To me, the strangest, saddest part of the story was, that he who had so fearlessly perilled his life for others, should Be among that little hand whose last resting-place should be the deep blue sea. -Alioe-was a baby then, and her mother was one of grdndpfi’S truants- Ar-by&ve, (trhfe-bearted, self-sacrificing woman, with,a world of energy and perseverance, yet, withal, a very sweet, ten der, motherly way about her, that made her an immense favorite with every one. There was One thing that troubled her greatly as the years rolled by. - Alice was growing np, and the means for her education were so very slight 1 Her health; too, was feeble. Dear grandpa ■bad always been fond of-the child, and, with his usual characteristic benevolence, took upon him self the care of this “one flower” of the Widow’s desoihteheairt about 4 ye'arbefOre our story be gins. ' ■■ V - The failing health of her mother rendering it necessary that, from that time, other hands than those most gentle ones should minister to the wants of Alice, a pleasant home had been pro vided for her mother in the family of a near re lative, where she would receive every attention, and then, to my great joy, Alice came to live with me. She attended school at Alaysville, and On Friday afternoon went to see her mo ther, returning to us on Monday, after school. This always seemed a long absence to me, and as?the walk from Maysville was a very pleasant one, I often went part of the way to meet her, walking home slowly through the'long, avenue of elms, and having such talks I For I was a ; dreamer, full of fancies and half-fledged hopes' for the future. And dear, dear Alice was my confidant, adviser, and darling friend! -Those sweet, sunny days of our early spring! those fair, fleeting hours of the sweet summer 1 how my pen loves to linger over the records of their wondrous beauty! How my heart—a weary wanderer —yearns over the precious recollec tions of those delightful scenes, longing—how intensely—to fold its tired pinions once more within the dear ark of its shelter, on the bosom of its beloved 1 Nurse; Katie, and Maggie were already pre paring tea, and I was just beginning to think that Alice was taking a great while to come, when I heard the sweet tones of her voice just outside the door, calling to Rover, the great Newfoundland, my special admiration, the com panion of many a long ramble, and fhe partici pator. in many a scene of mischievous sport. I flew to the door, with the exclamation, “Oh I Alice, do hurry 1” “Has-she come?” asked Alice, in a quick, glad, eager way. “Yesl Hash!” I said, puttings my finger on my lips, and drawing the. child rapidly through the hall into the sitting-room. “Only look how very, very beautiful 1” pointing, at the same time, to the great arm-chair opposite, where the sleep ing cherub lay nestling in grandpa’s arms. It was a beautiful picture, sufficient to kindle en thusiastic feelings of admiration ip less impres sible hearts than that of Alice. That grand, noble head; with its crown of glory, the softly waving, silvery hair! That face, so expressive of .heaven’s peace within, bending, with a look of such deep, yearning love, over the fair child face of the innocent sleeper! The little orphan stranger, in her pure beauty like a fair frail flower from Paradise, or a sweet stf ay bird of Heaven! .. T. M. B. The winsome helplessness of the child,- her happy unclouded face, in strong contrast to the sorrow expressed by the little mourning dress; the deep thought and quiet firm Resolution shown in the' compressed lips of my dear grand pa, now and then lightened by a smile, as in soft tones he murmured gently —“He hath re membered mercy! ” Alice drew me nearer with quiet, steps, and we stood a moment by the arm chair. Then she stooped low and softly kissed the forehead of the little sleeper. Her nobie face shone with the light of the inner joy—and a sweet touching expression of womanly devo tion. Here might be ‘in the great future of which we dreamed —a chance to show forth the deep gratitude she felt toward her benefactor 1 Her beautiful eyes kindled with the fire of a grand resolve! She glanced at the dark dress of the child—then at the sweet fair face, so uncon scious of “the tempest and'the storm,” —then at me,—and instinctively I drew closer to her side. Then her eyes rested on grandpa. He saw that look understood it!' His arm was about her in a moment, her little hand clasped in his, while her dark tresses mingled with those beautiful sil very curls which it was my delight to twine about my fingers. ‘ I stole softly round to'the other side, and knelt down by little Carrie, something prompted me to this act —-I knew not what! For a moment or two there-was perfect silence—- grandpa’s hand was laid upon my head. I felt then as though. I could die for him! Carrie wakened suddenly, looking at us all in half sur prise. One or two bright tears glittered' on her brow. I looked up at Alice—she did nqt'look the least sorrowful —but her long lashes were glit tering with the "dew.” I knew then what were tho jewels on little Carrie’s forehead. The solemn seal of a great vow— ; born that hour in the heart of one of Christ's little ones, and registered by angel hands in the holy book of his remembrance!. Dear, dear, grandpa! could the shadowy cur tains but for a moment have been drawn aside, and in the future, the far away future, could’st thou havejseen the ripe grains—golden—waving to the breeze of heaven—not more triumphant could thy tones have been than those which which fell upon our ears—that even when with heart of faith and lips of love; we heard thee repeat these glorious words of precious promise, “ He who goetli forth weeping, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again, —bringing Ms sheaves with Mm!” Dear little readers; —this is but a little sketch of those who made the home of my, childhood the sweetest spot on earth!” Should you at some fu ture day care to take another peep at our “bird’s nest,” and see how much the nestlings enjoyed the balmy breezes of the summer time, the young life which God had given! How after awhile they tried their wings for 'a flight “far away!” How the love of Jesus followed them every where, and how at last he brought them, with those they so loved and reverenced, throughgreen pastures and by still waters, unto rest. If you care for this, I say, we shall meet again! Until then, my little darlings, Good bye! India, The bright blue sky was obscured by clouds of a dark, gloomy, leaden hue. The northeast wind blew chill and disagreeable, and the rain was fall ing in torrents. Every place looked desolate and cheerless; with a melancholy voice the cattle were lowing, and the sheep bleating upon the hill-sides, and the birds were driven to seek shelter from the rain. Little Sophie Lester was standing by the window with her face pressed close against the. glass, and gazing out upon the muddy road, she was vainly trying to see some object that would interest her. At last she turned around to her. elder sister, who was sitting near, and said:— “ Sister Alice, don’t.you hate the rain ? “Hate the rain! 0 no, my darling!” said Alice, looking up from her sewing. “Well I do, Alice, I can’t tell how much !” ex claimed Sophie, stamping her foot to give empha sis to her words. - “But that is very wrong, Sophie; you know that God sends the rain, and therefore it is right; and besides that—" . “Yes,, but I don’t thinkit is right,” interrupted Sophie; “I can’t help but hate it. When the pretty, bright sun shines nice and warm, I run about in the garden and in the field, and never get tired. I can chase the butterflies, play with my lamb, and gather flowers, and' O so many things I love to do. But, Alice, when . the naughty rain comes down I must stay in the house all the day long, for the grass is wet, and the road is muddy, and there is nothing that I love to d'o in the house. Alice, do tell me haw you eau say it is right, or be contented ou a rainy day?" Alice laid aside her work, and drawing Sophie to her side, said:— “Now listen to what. I say, discontented little Sophie, and then see if a rainy day was, not.or dained for a good purpose by the All-wise Creator and Upholder of the universe. You love to see the beautiful wild flowers which bespangle the earth in. Spring-time and early Summer. You love the delicious fruits which the trees bring forth at Autumn; and - again, you could not live unless at harvest.,time, the fields produoed.corn and wheat*, from which, as you well know, food is made. Now, none of these comforts and pleasures would you have if it were riot for these much de spised rainy'days. , It is the rain,-which moistens the-earth, and makes the grass,; flowers, and grain grow. Without it the: sun’s rays would soon scorch up every vestige of green; the earth would, soon lose its beauty, and we, the inhabitants, die of famine. Now,.dear Sophie, you see. that it is wrong to complain of a.rainy day, for, as I said befoie, it is sent in mercy by our Heavenly Father,; to give both nourishment and pleasure to Hib children here. You know that all Heroes is right. Ho cannot err even in the smallest thing, THE BAINY DAY. §mf tit an ftf mu ml Gtntfitt tfaitgdisit. and it is finding fault with God’s actions to com plain thus of what He sees fit to-send. Sophie had listened attentively while her sister was speaking; she stood for some trore gazing thoughtfully out of the window, then 'turning, Sm '“Yes, Alice, Ido see that it is right for us to, have rainy days; and I will try and not complain at them. Still they are lonesome, and lam afraid I can’t like them any how. ” . “ You will never like them, Sophie, while you/ make up your mind so determinedly not to. You rise in the morniDg, and find it is raining, and with a frown of dissatisfaction upon your counte nance, you determine to be unhappy during the day, and you are so. Time -after time has the rain caused me to meet with disappointments, but I was not unhappy on account of . iti- Now, my little sister, bring your chair and sit beside me, and see if a little sewing will not amuse you, for I have a great deal h'ere that you could do for me.” Sophie ran joyously for her thimble and her little chair, and pleased beyond measure at the novelty of the thing, sat down beside Alice to talk and sew. Alice could always find ways and means to amuse children, and she now entertained Sophie With-a variety of anecdotes, all of which tended to improve and instruct the little girl; Thus occupied, the time passed so quickly that Sophie was utterly amazed when,.they were sum moned to dinner: At night Alice said: “ Well, Sophie, has this been a long, dreary day, and do you- feel very unhappy to-night ?” “ 0 no!” she exclaimed; “the day was very short, and I have been so happy. I never will complain of a' rainy day again if they are all like this one!” • “ And they all will he; my darling, if you spend j them the same; and I do not think yon will' ever, forget the lessons you have learned to-day. ” Sophie never did forget them; her eyes'Nero as bright and her smiles as joyous on a rainy day as on a dear one, for, with the assistance of the ever-oheerful Alice,; she found abundance of em ployment and pastime. A CAPITAL TRICK THAT ENDED WELL. Here is a good story which we have just heard, A young man (a brother to “Sly Boots ” perhaps, for like her he enjoyed a good joke,) was studying in College. One afternoon he walked out with one of his instructors, and they chanced to see an old pair of shoes lying by the side of the path, which appeared to belong to a poor man at wbrk close By. “ Let us have a little amusement at his expense,” said the student. “Suppose we hide these shoes, and conceal ourselves in the bushes to watch his perplexity when he cannot find them.” “I can think of a better trick than that,” - said' the instructor. “ You are rich, and suppose you put a silver dollar in the toe of each shoe and then we will hide.” The young man did so. The poor man finished his work-soon, and went to put on his shoes. Ifou can imagine his surprise, when he stooped down to take out a pebble, as he supposed, from the toe, and found it-to be a hard dollar, and then his absolute per plexity and astonishment, when he found still another in the other shoe. His feelings overcame him; he fell upon his knees, looked up to heaven, and uttered aloud -a fervent thanksgiving,' in which he thanked a kind Providence for sending some unknown hand to save from perishing his sick and helpless wife, and his children without bread. Do you wonder that the young man stood in his hiding-place deeply affected, and his eyes filled with tears? Young friends,.and you, Miss “Sly Boots,” when you want to enjoy real fun, real pleasure at witnessing the perplexity-of others, see if you cannot in some way imitate the student, tricks are worth performing. - SUCCESS. Mr. Smiles, the biographer of George Stephen son, has written a book called Self-Help., in which he has collected' a wonderful number of stories showing liow men get on in the world. The literary merit of the work is very great, and few authors have so successfully surmounted the diffi culty of weaving into a connected and pleasant narrative a long string of anecdotes. But as the volume must be read to have justice done to it, and as we could scarcely notice its contents in de tail without extracting pages of quotation, we wish to -pass over the book itself mbre lightly than it deserves, and merely refer generally to the great subject of which it treats. If the golden calf was interesting, as we may suppose it to have been, to the Israelites, success must be interesting to 'Eng lishmen. How sPme men do what thousands of others long to do, is a problem worth solving. Mr. Smiles solves it with tolerable fulness and accuracy. Men succeed'because they take pains to succeed. Industry is the secret of success, as the experience of numberless successful meri amply proves. Patience, said Buflbri, is genius; and those who are marked out from. their fellows are much more Often distinguished-by unusual resolu tion arid perseverance than by unusual "gifts. If any bne wishes to 1 know why other men succeed more than he does, let him begin to get up at five o’clock. The first morning or two nothing can be easier. The excitement of novelty, and the buoy ant hope which springs from the consciousness of a great aim, will enable him to turn out as cheer fully and determinedly at five as at nine; but the third morning and the fourth will begin to tell.. There will be no visible effect produced by his ex ertions. No one will care whether he is grinding over a hard book near a fire, which, as he proba bly lit it himself, is very unlikely’to burn, or Whether ho is snoozing between Iris Warm sheets. If he perseveres, early rising will become a habit, and then it will'be as easy to him to fgot up at one hour as another; but there is a preliminary weari ness before a habit is formed, and after the first novelty is over, which, with v the vast majority of men, puts a quiet extinguisher on ambition. Certainly it is not necessary to get up early in order to be very .industrious, but some equal sacri fice must be made. If the work is to come after dinner, the enjoyinerit of dinner must be propor tionately diminished. If every odd and end of time is to be employed in the daytime, the aspi rant must have the fortitude to rrisiSt-ail the wills of friends, visitors, love-making;’ creditors, arid other persons who waste or occupy time. Nor is. hard work a mere affair of will.: The body has to be taxed as well: as the mind, and body is apt to display an ignorant impatience of taxation. A man who requires sleep, but cannot sleep if his mind.is excited, may bid adieu to the steep ascents of unusual advancement, while .the man wilP eau do without sleep is at once raised above his fellows if he chooses to exert his faculties. Lord Brougham it is said, once kept awake from a Monday morn ing until Saturday evening again brought round the day of profound slumber. Hpw .can a person who is never fresh unless he gets from eleven at night'*'till eight 'the next morning compete with such a wakeful prodigy ? Bo great are the capaci ties of body and mind which enormous work re quires, that in all-probability extreme.labor is very rarely undergone, simply, for. the rewards it • will lead to. The capacities exist, and.it is the plea sure of exercising extraordinary faculties much more, than tlie prospect of eventual distinction that impels men to absorb their lives in continual industry. When, for instance, fire hear of a violin player being asked by a disciple how long it would take to learn that instrument, and replying, “ twelve hours a day fPr; twenty years;'” we 1 may be sure that the delight of fiddling, and riot the . hope Pf being a fiddler, had lured him pn to pro fioieney. But whatever may be the motive: to’un usual effort and industry, and to the devotion of • a life to particular objects, it is indisputable that , men must spurn delights and live laborious days ' who desire to excel. The second great requisite of suooess is a large ness of aim and view. Patience is genius, not only in the sense that patient industry leads to excellence, but also in the sense that, the industri bus man must be patieritrand be prepared to bide his time. “The successful man,” said Jbsbph'de Maistre, “is the man who knows liowi to Wait:” The'necessity of )his kind of patience exhibits itself at every turn of a man’s, life. One indus trious man is so anxious to learn 'that he devours what is set before him without reflection, and has never made his own what he has read. Another goes slowly, but surely, and what he acquires be comes a part of his own' mind. Then the tenacity of an industrious man. is often tested by small certainties of success being thrown, in his way, which may easily tempt hiinTo abandon the' larger hopes of the future.. -Alter a certain quantity of exertion has bccn gouc through, and while the avenues of great'success.still seem all closed, it is sweet for the moment to be gently put on a small, comfortable shelf; but, a little later, 4t becomes evident that by this process the real value of the preceding work has been thrown away. The pa tience of men is also assailed by, the sight of others' who succeed to some limited extent by the .use of petty arts. That flourishes in the world is never more than partly true.. It does flourish, but it is rated, riven at. the hour when its bay-tree is the greenest, ait a lower level than the success of genuine effort aud high-minded inde pendence. The world is, in most respects, a just world, and it never puts the quacks whom it pa- ; tronizes on an equality with'its true men. But there are moments in the life of every: struggling' man: when it seems foolish and Quixotic to aim at a high and impossible success while iplausibility, and intrigue, and pushing get so very, handsome a share of the loaves and,fishes. There is a story , of Abernethy which illustrates the audacity of self-denying independence sometimes required of and exhibited: by U Man who ultimately dnaSes the world bend to him; instead of himself bending" to the world. When Abernethy was canvassing for the office ofsurgeon.tp, St. Bartholomew’s' hospital,' he rich grocer, one. of the Bhioi-s. The grocer pompously began, “ I pre , sirj you wattt my vote and interest at this intbris epoch If your life ?” '..'Abernethy, ; humbugs, and felt nettled at the time, re plied, “No, I don’t; I want a pennyworth of figs. Come, look sharp and wrap them up; I want to be off.” Most men, if they will' candidly reflect what they.Jheraselves would have said to the gro cer under the circumstances, will own the superi ority of Abernethy., Everything great, too, re quires time. To conceive a great work or a great plan of life, and to execute it, requires a large power of looking before and after, which is oi& of the rarest of qualities. When we see what some men have done, both in these and in other days, we catch a glimpse of the scope of man’s intellect, and of 'the extent of activity, bodily and mental, that some men possess, which by a mere anticipa tion we should never have guessed at. No better instance could be given 1 than the noble and won derful book which Mr. Darwin has recently published; and when we have read this work we begin to understand all that Buffon meant when he said that “patience is genius.” Both these requisites of success—industry and largeness of' Atly illustrated by Mr. Smiles, whose profusion of biographical anecdotes seems inexhaustible. But there is a third requisite of success, on which the plan of his work leads him. to bestow less attention. Those who wish to succeed must never be above their business. De ficiency in this requisite probably accounts'for very-many of the'flnst-anceS in which the sons of successful fathers and men of high education have failed to succeed. Both descriptions of persons are accustomed to live with persons already at the top of the tree. They pass' over, in their imagi nations, the earlier steps ofsuceess, and habitually fancy themselves vdierc they think they ought to be,..and where thajp. with whom, they are most familiar actually- are., A father has perhaps, made his fortune in life.' He used to get up early and take rest late. He studied grammars arid dic tionaries at odd hours—he kept a model in one pocket, and a scheme for a patent iri another. He"succeeds, and his son grows up in comfort, and with all the ’appliances of learning. He mixes with his-fathef and his fathet’s friends, and hears that the model has long been working, and the patent has • brought- in:-, oceans" ,of money. It seems to him as if successful' models and patents grew up -udMI-jBawMS. apd as if he could gather as mlny as he pleased. 'Anything like practical labor in the direction of his father’s success would seem to him equally disgusting and contemptible., He ,is not going to walk about with a little ill-cut machine in his pocket when he knows the look and action of the big machine that has done so much Tor his father. In the same way high education tends to make men retirefrom active life. It is not that they are too conceited to take low work, but they are too accustomed to the life to which low work ultimately leads. They do not relish so great a downfall as the mean, plod ding beginnersofprofessional industry. ' They do not like to take up iew, subjects and go into de tails to which thpjp are wholly unaccustomed. The consequence is,.‘that they do not succeed. A sort of coarseness, which is very often , allied to high animal spirits, is ah important if ndt an in dispensable Clement of success, and they either could not obtain this,' or would not if they could. If these three things are 1 united—if a man is capable in body and mind of intense industry, arid uses his capability, if he looks patiently for ward to a great .end, and if he does riot despise or shrink from small, mean, and coarse beginnings . —the world is so that success is as much a. certainty for .h'umasany thing in human affairs is a certaint* Nothing can be more ab surd and delusive than the assurances so often given to the poor that if they educate tltemselves they will entirely .filter their worldly position. • Those' who succeed will always, be the exceptions. But if the necessary conditions are fulfilled, suc cess is a mere matter of calculation. But then comes the why should success he sought? Of course, where there is a very high faculty, or a special taste, or anjextraordinary aptitude, there is au excellent reason for exertion. The work is sought for the worlds sake; and, as we have said, we think all the highest work .is done for its own sake,. But, if we cpme down to a lower kind of success, and look, only to that species which lies in the acquisition by honorable means of an ho norable place in society, we may feel some little doubt, not 1 whether His a good-thing, but Whether there is not something better for some people. Generally speaking,] however, success is a great gain. The qualities 'that must be cultivated for success are very variable qualities. The hope, the energy, "the - liveliness the mind by the struggle for, success are most important advantages to the.Jndiyidqal; and numbers of steadyf manly characters, .that would otherwise have frittered away, their liyep, are made useful.to their generation by |he hope #f worldly advance ment, and by the. desire, of each to do his part as a good'citizen, and|o receive a good citizen’s re ward. But we cannot avoid remarking that suc cess is often held'u| as a blessed thing at which it is a duty to try to-arrive, and that this doctrine is exclusively modejfn, and almost, if riot quite, exclusively English.’ Jt seems also rather strange that to succeed in this world should have come to be looked at as the -ultimate fruit of the Gospel. And yet the practical advantages of success are so many, so elevated, and so palpable, that; the doe-. trine of the blessedness of success holds water much better than might have been expected. To a great number of persons it is an inward as well as an external gain to advance to a station of honor and comfort; and we cannot deny facts be cause they are mot quite what we might 1 have ex pected. ■" ‘ ' ; / - Possibly it is a question, of individual character. Some men cab do justice to themßelves and their neighbors without the stimulus of ambition; and where this is the case, it is by no in cans clear that the' balance oftfappiness is -on- the side*of ;the successful iaanV i HmeSs aspiring friend has many enjoyments from which the restlessness of ambi tion andthe desire ol promotion,exclude,the aotive and the rising.,m,an,;i After ail/it ; is pliant,n^ to get up. at is pleasant io : shave"time tq speed in the Jbosom jof a. family—it is" pleasant .to taste the differences/between Winter and Spring, fine sunsets and storms, town and country. If occupation is sweet/so is leisure. There earthly happiness Bke that of Companionship, with near dnd deaf" friends, and tire successful man has to out this find of happiness very short. But we may- go much further than this if we lodi to the highest upsuceessful men. They are the salt of modejtn sooiety, the most useful— or, at any rate, the least to he spared—of the citi zens of an old state. The men who are content to miss, the prizes of life so that they keep up the standard of cultivation to the highest point—who rieVer bow to the mob; who sacrifice their fortunes if truth requires it, who dare not only to think on high subjects, but to proclaim what they think, who try to arrive , at definite conclusions on the weightiest matters of life, and to discountenance the vague idols of thought that so often take the place of definite conclusions —-are the greatest benefactors of mankind., We reserve our reve rence-for such men, and derive froth them the indirect hints for life which shape our conduct in our best moments. They ennoble the struggling lot, of humanity, and if they have no adequate re ward in this life, they have one approxiinately, adequate in the quality of tHe minds over which they’ exercise influence, and in the depth of the influence they exercise. * THE ODDEST PAINTING IN THE WOEID. f When Napoleon asked a. painter for what he was painting, he replied: “For immortality, sire 1” ; “But how long will a painting last ?” inquired the Emperor. “Three 6r four hundred years, if preserved with care, and no accidents happen.” “ Arid that is what you call immortality,” said the Emperor, bitterly. 1 We were reminded of this the other day on seeing the statement that the oldest painting in the world is a Madorina and. child, painted A> D. 866. The oldest in England is said to he the portrait of Chancer, painted in panel in the early , part of the fourteenth century... .Such is file immortality of, the artist. HoW insignifi cant, when compared with that which awaits the Christian l HOW TO GROW PEACHES EVERY YEAH, The following, by a correspondent of the Ohio Cultivator, is worth a trial by all, lovers of delicious fruit :- “ Procure your trees grafted upon the wild plum stock. The tree partakes of the nature of the plum, being hardy, and will never winter-kill, and, putting out late in the spring, will never be injured by the frost, and it is a certairi preventive against the workings of the peach grub, while the natural lifetime of a tree is beyond that of our own; so you may depend upon peaches every year, and for a long period of time, without the destructive and discouraging influences attending the growth of the common peach. They, can .be obtained from fifty to seventy-five cents per tree, and you had better pay five times the amount than not to obtain them, and be certain.-of peaches every year. Try it, and our word for it, you will 'be sa tisfied with the result.” The BiSle and she Nations, — There' are 2,500 different languages arid dialects spoken by mankind. The 1 Bible, up to this time, has been translated into 150 only. When shall all inen read, in their own tongues, of the wonderful works of God ? . Progs.— An enterprising citizen of New Jersey has prepared ponds for the purpose of raising frogs, for the table. There these amphibious vocalists are advanced from the tadpole degree to the maturity of froghood, when they are subjected to a rap on the head, which effectually retards, their growth and im pairs their musical powers. The posterior limbs are then divested of their natural covering and sent to market, "where they readily command the price of one dollar per hundred at wholesale. Frogs are be coming a common article of food. “ Degustibus&o. The Italians. —E. C. Delavan, writing to the Ballston Atlas, from Naples, under date of January 10, speaking of the.affairs ,of Italy, says:—“As far as my observation has enabled me to form an opinion, the Italians are an industrious arid quiet people. The great difficulty in'bringing- them under, our govern ment, is that each principality produces the same commodities, (having ahout the same climate,) and in quantities sufficient to supply each its own wants. The trade is for the most part domestic; the people care butlittleTSr Toreign products. ’There is m fact but little dependence one Upon another—nothing to bind them together socially, politically or commer cially. . - THBAMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN .
