When-yon meet with one suspected . Of some secret deed of shame. And for this by all rejected As a thing of evil &mc; Guard thine every look and action.

Working out his own undoing, With his recklessness and sin; Think if placed in his condition. Would a kind word be in Tain, Or look of cold suspicion ' Win thee back to truth again. Therefore spots that bear no flowers, Not because the soil in bad, Bat the Sommer's genial showers Mover make their blossoms glad, Better have an act that’s kindly Treated sometimes with disdain, Thau by judging others blindly. Doom the innocent to pain. Capita,! Sermon. A writer in the Sierra (Cal.,) Citizen, under the title of “ Young Men and Tree Frogs," gives a better sermon, a better lecture on morality, and a better essay on mental philosophy, all in a few lines, than are sometimes dbuud in as many volumes of standard authors: “ The tree, frog acquires the color of whatever jt adheres to for -a short time; if it is found on the oak, it will hear the color of that tree; if on the sycamore, or cypress, it will be a whitish brown; and when it is found on the growing corn, it' is sure to ho green. Just so it is with young men y their companions telhus what their char acter is; if they associate with the vulgar, the Ucentious and the profane, then their hearts are already stained with their guilt aad sliame, and they will themselves be come like thq vicious. The study of bad books, or the ; love of wicked companions, the broadest and most certain road to rain that young men can travel, and a few well directed ; lessons in either will Iqad them on step by step to the gate of de straction. Onr moral and physical laws show how important it is to have proper associates of every hind, especially in youth. How dangerous it is to gaze on a picture or scene that pollutes the imagin ation or hluuts the moral perceptions, or has a tendency to weaken a sense of Our duty to God and man.” A Thrilling Narrative.—’Twas a fearful night ; the storm king, out of humor, let loose the howling wind and pelting rain and clothed the earth with a pall of darkness as dense and impenetra ble as an Egyptian sepulchre; all iagtinc-' tive life was'hushed, save the tempest bird, whose shrill screams mingled with the crashing blast and made it more ter rible in its mighty frenzy. *Twaa dark - as midnight; the trees, whose huge limbs moaned and sighed pite ously, were rudely tossed about, and even anon great masses of mutilated timber fell to the ground. Before an open window stood, a,bountiful girl ; her glossy ringlets waved like .streamers to the passing wind; her oxquisito ibrm^, which bore the.im presa of nobleness innate, was splendidly erect, and'her flashing eyes, full of exci ted lustre,'| shone brighter still through the impenetAblo darkness. PrOudly she stood, defying the tempest in its. wrath.— See, her rosy lips separate like the leaflet of the morning rose, and with one tremen dous effort she screams out at the top of her voice : .f Jim if youdon’t let thafcpig’s tail go, mam will thrash you like thunder.* ; A Touching Ditty in Pbose. —When Seth; got home from mackerling he sought hw Surah Ann, and found that she, the heartless one, had found another man. And then most awful tight he got, and so he 'went away, and bound, himself for to cht paA gll .dtowp. In’ Rioriday. He pined upon the live, Gat land, he murmured in tt® shades; his; axe grew heavy in his all in the glares. Mois qtfftees hit him no, comfort yiAhn get | and oH, bow terribly ho’d scoM £e got Hit. At last do of-relieL wishing Himself dead, fin weqtinto ‘the woods' a-pieco and chopped off his own head.' The - Slstir,—--There is something lovely in the name, aud its lyiiulsio' call lop vrarm of the gentle! heart, The ' theoghtt- that purde rouudit are aU : gaiety beautiful and 1 pare, i Passion has no place with its asso ciates; , The hopes and; fears of love* those strong emotions* powerful enough to shat ter Mid extinguish life no home there. - The hride is the star, the talisman of the heart, the diamond abovooll price, bright jtod brazing, in the noon-day sun; a sister, the gem ;pf milder; lirfit/cklm as the pearls. s ‘ ‘ ; ■ •* 1 Velocity of Railway Trains. Dr. Lardner has -made eomo, curious! calculations in, regard to the velocity off railway trains, According to these a speedj of seventy ihiles an hour is about Cquira-1 lent to thirty-five yards per second, or! thirty-five yards between two beats of uS ■ common clock ; all objects near the eye ofi a passenger traveling at this rate will pass; by his eyo in the thirty-fifth part of msec-j ond ; and if thirty-five stakes were erected! at the side of the road, a yard asunder,' they could not be .distinguished ope from! another; if painted red, they would ap4 pear con nectively as a continuous flash of red color. If two trains with this speed; passed each other, the relative velocity would be .seventy yards per second and if one of the trains were seventy yards, long, it would flash by in a single second. ; Supposing the locomotive which draws: such a train to have driving wheels seven; feet in diameter, the wheels v. ill rovolve five times in a second; the piston moves; along.the cylinder ten times in a second ;i the valve moves, and the steam escapes ten? times i!a a second. But os there are two: cylinders, which act alternately, there are' really twenty puffs or escapes of steam in a second. The locomotive can be heard to “cough" when moving slowly, the cough; being occasioned by the abrubt emission of steam up the chimney; but twenty coughs per second cannot be separated byi the ear; their individuality becoming lost.! Such a locomotive speed is equal to nearly one fourth: that of a cannon ball; and the; mementum of a whole-train moving at sucli a speed would be nearly equivalent to the aggregate force of a ’ number of cannon! halls equal to one-fourth the weight of the train. OrxT Dinner was spread in the cabin of that peerless steamer, the “ New World,’* and a splendid company were assembled about the table. Among the passengers thus prepared for gastronomic duty, was d little creature of the genus Fop, decked as daintily as an early butterfly, with kids' of irreproachable whiteness, “ neck-tie, and spider like quizzing glass on his nose. Tjie delicate animal turned bid head affectedly aside with; “ Waitah!” “ Sah ?" • “ Bwing me the pwopellah of a fwemale woostah!” S “ Yis sah ?” “And, waitah! tell the steward to wub my plate with a wegpfablc wulgarly called onion, which will give a delicious flavoh to my dlnuah.” I While the refined exquisite was giving; his order, a jolly western drover had lis-: tened with open mouth and protruding! eyes. When the diminutive creature, paused, he brought his fist down upon the] table with a force that made every dish? bound, and thundered out: “ Here you gaul darned ac.e of spades “ Yis sab.” ■ j “ Bring me a thunderin' big plate of* skunk’s gizzard I” ' “Sah!,’ “ And, old ink-pot, tuck ahorse-blanket" under my chin, and rub me down with brick hats tchile I feed !” The poor dandy showed a pair of straight? coat-tails instantcr, and the whole table; .joined ina “tremendous roar.” : .
