The vulgar and useless idler, whose Energies of body and mind are rusting for want of exercise—the mis taken being who pursues amusement as a relief to Lis enervated muscles, or engages in exercises that produce no useful end, may look with scorn upon the smutty la borer engaged in his toil. But his scorn is an honor. Honest industry will secure thp respect of; the wise and good, and yield the rich fruit of an easy conscience, and give. the heat self-respect, which is above all price.

A very sad-affair, says the Hamilton, 0. Intelligencer,-transpired at Princeton, near our city, on Thursday last. A Mr. Daniel Elliott,' who lives in Princeton, butchering beeves and selling them in the neighbor hood, hung himself in his slaughterhouse. He was in an exceedingly good humor dur ing the day and evening, and naturally of a playful disposition gave vent to it by many playful things. He hid bought some cattle, had extended his business, was doing well, and felt lively and en couraged. He so expressed himself to his wifeand friends. Going from the house to his stable he fed his horse, and taking his little girl and a, neighbor’s little boy“ some thirteen years old, be went on about twenty-five yards from his house to the slaughter house. Here was a machine for raising dead cattle—a rope with a large hook in it Tup over a large ’'reel, and at tached to a Windlass with a ratchet. Ad justing the Tope in a noose around his neck, he playfully bid the little girl to go tell her mother “ somebody was hanging out there who looked like" “ Dan Elliot* then showing the boy exactly how many, notches he bid him, still laughing, to draw him up. Once up he could not, because of the ratchet, get him down, and when in an swer to the little girl’s anxiety Mrs. E. came out, her husband hung dead, his feet touching;the floor, and the hook pres sing hard against his jugular. From all the eircumstapces, it is not doubted that the act was done accidentally in a burst of playfulness Curious. Thomas Jefferson and John Adams both died on the 4th of July, 1826- John Adams (lied in his ninety-first year and was eight years older than Thomas Jefferson; ffhomas Jefferson was eight years older than James Madison; James Madison was eight years older than Jas. Monroe; James Monroe was eight years older than John Quincy Adams. The first five of the Presidents—all revolu tionary men—ended their terms of ser vice in the sixty-sixth year of their age. Washington, born February 22d, 1722, inaugurated 3789, term of service ex pired in the sixty-sixth year of his age.

Why Ladies should Head News papers.—lt is a great mistake in female education to keep a young lady’s time and attention devoted only to the fashion literature of the day. If you would qualify her for conversation, you must give her something to about—give her educa tion with the actual world and its trans piring events. Urge her to read newspa pers and becomfc familiar with the present character and improvement of our race. History is of some importance, but the past world is dead, and we have nothing to do with it. Our thoughs and our con cerns should be for the present world to know what it is and improve the condition of it. Let her have an intelligent opinion, and be able to sustain an intelligent conver sation concerning the mental, moral, po litical and- religious improvement of our time. Let the gilded annuals and poems on our center tables be kept part of the time covered with weekly and daily jour nals. Let the whole family—men, women and children—read the newspapers. LidOß Johnson.’? 1 Writon-fir the “Altoona Attuna” -J Reminiscences of College Elite. The life of a student is'pleasaut in more respects than one. He finds pleasure in the pursuit of knowledge] in associations with his fellow-students j ih the enjoyment of numerous diversions y in daily contact with superior minds; in the influence which is exerted around him j in the hopes which inspire him 5 and from, many other different sources pleasure is derived. He has many advantages in li% and many opportunities for storing-his mind witn useful knowledge. ; : But amid all thdlo enjoyments of, a character so happy, sorrow:often comes to cast a deep shadow over all and make his pathway dark. His life has its sorrow as well as its happiness. One of the means of causing the heart to feel: sad and to put a stop -to the out-gushings iof mgrrimeut for a season, is the death of a beloved as sociate and friend. It not 1 only stops for the genial flow of pleasure, but it casts a gloomy pall over the soul and gives the bereaved a shock from which it often re quires mouths and sometimes years to re cover. To see a young man, almost ripe Tor usefulness, torn from friends and deprived of the accomplishment of 'great good to his fellow-men, and when the realization of his bright hopes are just within his grasp, seems hard to be endured and diffi cult to understand. Such hi bereavement was experienced—such a loss we suffered one session at College. A promising mem ber of the Junior class, a consistent mem ber of the church of his choice, and a faithful friend to all, was stricken down in our very midst by the strong, unsparing, arm of Death On Friday he took his bed and on the following Wednesday he was a corpse. Ills disease was pronounced to be the Brain Fever. His sufferings were intense, so much so indeed that it was. with great difficulty that we could keep hiui in bed- during the first two days of his illness, but after that time be became too weak to-raise his head from the pillow. He had very few lucid moments from Sa turday till he died. A short time before his spirit took its flight he s&id in audible tones ; “ I can’t endure these pains much longer I only want to go to Jesus; death, is welcome —it has no terrors when Hea ven is just beyond,” and with a smile on his countenance while the. clammy sweat stood upon his brow, he shortly after fell asleep. That was the first time X had ever seen a Christian die; and as I witnessed his resignation aqd happy frame of mind in the presence of death, while sufferin'* untold agony, I thought that if religion icas worth nothing in this or the future world, it had one power worth its possess ing, and that was to make men die happy; and if it was a delusion, it was a glorious • one, and I thanked God for it. We missed our departed brother much.— “ Death loves a shining mark?' He could not have gathered to his pale realms ano ther of our number better prepared to go. I can truly say that our brother left be hind him a character without a stain. He was a humble Christian and .devout. He ; was an earnest one too, no lazy laggard in the service of God ; but he labored with a will, showing his devotedness to his Master.. Although.be did jnuch foe His cause, by distributing good; boots and tracts among nearly all classes of people in this and one of the adjoining States during his vacations, yet he looked anx iously forward to the time when his sphere of usefulness might beonlarged. He was also a model of honesty;, a hfm, unflinch ing friend of truth ;ia lover of virtue; a servant of God. Thus he lived, and thus ho died; yet not dead, only “ gone before/’ for he sleeps in Jesus and lives the hearts of his friends. I cannot pass a fit* ting encomium upon the character of the 1 deceased, for it is so elevated, so lofty, that I can do no more than offer to his memory the tribute pf a tear. J About one hundred and fifty students followed his body to its last resting place bn earth, the distant cemetery, where, no it has long since mingled with its mother dust; It was a long time before jwe were as blithe as formerly ; but, alas! tod soon the impressions of that death-bed. sccno were effaced from the memory of niany; hut I will never forget my departed- fnend; the fervent prayers he used to bser up, the sufferings he endured and theltriumphaht death he died. Oh, that my hist moments may be like his I landlord of & hotel at Brigh ton? entered in an angry mood, the sleep tog apartment of a boarder, and said, v ' “Now, sir, A want you to pay your bill, and you must. Fve asked you ftp it of ten enough; and I tell you now, that you, don’t leave my house till you pay it I” “ Good:!” said his lodger j “ just put that in make a regular agreement of it j l’ll stay with you as'lohg as I live.’’ “ Coff> why didn’t you kick that dog ?’?

The fdHdwihg is Martin Luther's description of a Christian: “ A Cfaristian is a child of God, a brother of Christ, a temple of the Holy Ghost, an heir of thd kingdom, a companion of angels, a land of the world, ana a partaker of the divine nature.' The Christian’s glory is Christ in heaven, and Christ's glory is the Chris tian on earth. He is a worthy child of God, endued with Christ's righteousness; walking in holy fear and cheerful obedi ence before his Father, shining as a light in the world, a rose among thorns. Ho is a wonderfully beautiful creature of Qod* over which the holy angels rejoice, aiw, attended and ministered unto by them wherever he goes.
