DO SOMETNING:.
It is truly a melancholy spectacle to see
so many drones in the great and busy
hive of human life. We daily see young
men of education, and who possess more
than ordinary natural gifts, lounging
about as listlessly as if there was nothing
In the boundles universe worthy of their
attention. Row utterly lost to manhood
are many sons of wealthy parents f No
ambition, no hope, no ardent desire, ever
spurs them on to leap from obscurity in
to the broad daylight of lusting renown.
Their lives, which should be full of noble
achievements, are dawdled away in un
holy dissipations. if such is to become
the universal effect of wealth on the
rising generation, It were far better that
poverty should forever be the handmaid
of our sons and daughters. In the name
of common humanity, we call on young
men to do something. Do not sneak
from the cradle of infancy to the coma
of oblivion without, at least, one great
effort to prove you have not lived in vain.
Remember that fame and honor are nev
er achieved with folded arms and 'mas
terly inactivity.' When the sublime
wisdom of common sense taught Colum
bus there was a new world, he did not
preach his belief with Idle hands, and
lack lustre eye. The wonderful discov
eries In science and art were not made
by men who regarded life as a holiday
of idleness. If you would achieve fame,
If you would win the applause of your
fellow men, it you would gain your own'
self-respect, then, in the name of all that
k good and sacred, we call on you to go
to work and do something.
BEGINNING THE WORLD
Many an unwise parent labors hard
and lives sparingly all his life, for the
purpose of leaving enough to give his
children a start in the world, as it is
Setting a young man afloat with
money left him by relatives, is like tying
bladders under the arms of one who can
not swim; ten chances to one he will
loose his bladders and go to the bottom.
Teach him to swim and he never 'will
need bladders. Give your child a sound
education, and you have done enough
for him. See to it that his morale are
pure, his mind cultivated, and his Whole
nature made subservient to the laws
which govern men, and you have given
what will be of more value to him than
the wealth of the Indies. To be thrown
upon one's resources is to be cast into, the
very lap of fortune, for our fiscuities
then undergo a development, and dis
play an engergy, of which they were
previously unsusceptlble. .

The following is from our attentive
friend, J. H. C.,' of Clifton Park, N. Y.
He has a rare budget of gooll stories, of
which we have several ye on hand : "V
was a member co . ; 'the Legislature
of N. Y. when Marcy was Governor.—
The Oov. gave a eper, and the legisla
tors were his pleats. The repast was
of the most stiniptuous kind, and V—
had never before dreamed of anything
so grand/The principal dishes being
disposedof, ice cream was next in order
for tif'e dessert. One of the waiters set
a . rge dish of the delicious cream by
e aide of N—'s plate, intending to
dish it out at the proper time. In the
meantime, V—, supposing it was in
tended for his sole use, took a spoon and
began to taste it. He was evidently die
pleased with it, for he dropped the spoon
as though shot, and called out, 'Waiter!
waiter!' The waiter having approached,
V—leaned towards him in a confi
dential manner and whispered, 'I say,
waiter, ,this pudding's froze.' There
were few sober faces during the remain
der of the evening, and the other honor
able gentlemen were careful not to mis
take ice cream for pudding.

Ludicrous blunders sometimes occur ,
in cases where ignorant persons attemPt
the use of language about the meaning
of which they know nothing.
Not long since, while traveling from
Pittsburgh to Cincinnati, two rather
verdant specimens of the female sex
came on board the boat at one of the
landings, who for the sake of distinction,
we will call Mary and Jane.
Now, Mary, had her eye-teeth cut, or
in other words, was acquainted with the
rules and regulations which govern gen
teel society ; Jane, the younger, had nev
er mixed in society to any extent. Her
language was such as she heard among
her .rustic acquaintances. Mary was
aware of this fact, add therefore caution
ed her to observe how she (Mary) acted,
and govern herself accordingly.
Shortly after, while seated at the din
ner-table, the waiter asked Mary what
part of the fowl she would have? She
Informed him in a very polite manner,
that it was "perfectly Immaterial."
He accordingly gave her a pia*, and
then inquired of Jane what part she
would prefer? .
"I believe I will take a piece of the
immaterial too."
"AmELza, for thee—yes, at thy com
mand, I'd tear this eternal fermament
into a thousand fragurenta—l'd gather
the stars one by one as they tumbled
from regions of ethereal space and put
them in my trowaers pockets ; I'd pick
the nun—that oriental god of day, that
traverses the blue arch of heaven in such
majestic splendor—l'd tear him from the
sky and quench his • bright effulgence in
the fountain of my eternal love for thee !

DIDN'T THINK
Opening the door of a friend's house
one day, I made my, way through the
entry to the small back court, where
Ned, the only son, was crying bitterly.
"Ah, Ned, what is the matter?"
"Mother won't let me go fishing.—
Harry and Toni are going to the harbor,
and I want to go." Here Ned kicked
his toes angrily whist the post, to the
great damage of his new boots.
"Whose little dog is this?" I asked,
as a brown spaniel came bounding up
the garden walk.
"It is mine," cried Ned in an altered
tone. ''Did you not know• I had one?"
"No, indeed. What a flue little fel
low. Where did you get him, Ned:"
"Father bought him for me. He Is so
knowing, and I Lew him many things.
See him find my knit ;" and Ned, wip
ing away his Ulan+, t ew his knife into
the clover.
"There, 'Wag," d lie, "now go anti
find my knife." \Vag plunged into the
grass, and after a great deal of smelling
and wagging, he came triumphantly
forth, and brought the knife to his
young truster.
"(Ave it to him," Raid Ned, pointing
to me ; and \VRg laid it at My feet.
"This lea knife worth having," said t ;
"four blades."
"'Tis areal good one," said Ned; "fa
ther gave it to me on my birth-day; and
he gave me a splendid box of tools, too.'-'
Nnd looked.up brightly and forgot his
crying.
"Let me think," said I. "Was it this
knife that you hurt your foot so with?"
"Oh no," cried Ned, "that was done
with an axe; but I've got well now."
"I was afraid you would be laid up all
the spring."
"Well, it was mother's nursing,*
doctor says. Mother and father
very great care' of me. It wail lonely
staying in the house so; but mother used
to leave her work and read to me, and
father often stayed with me."
"I should think you had very kind
parents, Ned." The boy looked down
on the floor, and a slight pout puckered
his lip. "T suppose there are none who
have your interest and happiness so
much at-heart."
"But I want to go fishing," muttered
Ned.
"And can't you trust them, Ned, and
willingly agree to their wishes? You
may not, indeed, know the reason why
they object to your going ; but, from all
your experience of their kindness and
wisdom, are you not sure that they
would not cross your wishes without
good reason for doing so? Aud surround.
ed so, you are by so many proofs of their
love7will you sit there and murmur and
cry, and fill your heart with angry and
stubborn thoughts agaist theM, because
of this one little d ial of, your wants.
Is not this a poor nd ungrateful return
for all their k nduelia?. It is little
enough that a child tan do for a parent,
but that little he ought to do most cheer
fully. I suppose the bcat return a child
can make to parents is a cheerful obe
dience. liew small that seems! And
will you j'rudge giving Mot, Ned?"
Ike l ooked sober. Tears started in kis
eyes "Oh, sir," said he humbly,. "I
aidn't think of It."
"Didn't think" is at the bottom of a
great deal of our Ingratitude and mur
muring against both our earthly parents
and our Father who Is In Heaven.

THE London Globe says a man named
Charlier thinks the notion that horses
need shoes entirely wrong. He himself
does not cut a horse's hoof. He merely
protects it against violent blows and ac

of the Paris pavements, by placing it in
a thin circle of imu, which wards it
from danger without compressing it. In
this way the horse stands on a healthy
member instead of upon one which la

and knife of the smith. Besides the
economy of this reform, It is expected to
make hoof disease , infrequent.

RADICAL NEWSPAPER VISIMPL
The nevelittleitary hellos' eir Deihr yeas
The following extracts from Northern
Republican papers on the course and ac
tion of Congress at this time, afford mat
ter for serious reflection
New. V. A Ft ctimq P , Af, nrp,l
• * Mr. Johnson, by the choler of
the people, is the Chief Magistrate of the
nation ; is such lie is responsible for the
execution of the laws, and has a dear
right to choose the subordinates by whom
the laws are to be euforead. He must
submit his appointments to of to the
oonfirmation of the Senate, but is other
wise independent of Congress. The ten
ure-of-office act, by which the Senatehas
been made to control the Prealdent's
power of removal, is not according to the
Constihrtion. Mr, Stanton believes that
it is not, and yet he avails himself of
ibis law, which he says Is not a tonsil
tutional law, which Is voidable and ills.
organizing, to resume a placelu the Cabi
net of President Johnson whleh he Sus
been especially desired to resign. It
seems-to us necessary only to state a case
like this to a man who iespeets himself,
to be certain of what his wurse will be.
It is not enough to reply that a large ma
jority of the member+ of Congress have
signed a letter requesting him to resume
the duties of Secretary of War.
Members of Congress have nothing to
do with the control of the executive de
partment of the government, which, in
all sound theory as iu the express letti4
of the organic law, it is desirable to keep
distinct; and Their interference is as
revolutionary as it would be to resolve
the President out of office. If Mr. John
son does not do his duty, If he refuses to
execute tile laws, or execute thilo in
such a manner as to defeat their purposes,
the remedy for hitt-course is pointed out.
It is not to invade the sphere of the ex
ecutive functions by legislative entoaele
ments, which will be a precedent for
other times, but to impeach and remove
him if guilty. But the plan offinpeach-,
meat has been tried, and after ayear's
Incubation It has hatched oat nothing.—
Ashley's vggs.wcre all a)iffied ; and now
an illegal course is to he pursued to attain
an end which coulti not be attained by
the law. Mr. Stanton is made the cats
paw of this / dangerous and wicked
policy. /
-
Whatever Mr. Johnson's designs may
be, he ixtinswerable to the people ; and
he isatitiwemble only in the way that
the/constitution prescribes. Congress
may. not like his individual peculiarities
or his political principles, but lie is none
the lees as much a part of the govern
ment as Congress itself, and what is
more, lie represents nearly as large a part
of popular opinion as Congress dors. It
may be distasteful to admit it, but it is
true, that the political sentiments of the
President have a large following--not
among the rebels only, as the cry has It,
but among the loyal people of the Korth.
He Is supported in the most of his posi
tions by the great opposition, or Demo
cratic party, and,that support is extend
ing and growing rapidly unddr the fost
ering care of Congress. 'Thousands who
have no liking for the President, per
sonally or politically, who think that he
has managed his opportunities with an
utter want of tact and skill, and to the
detriment of the public interests, are
yet unprepared to see the established or
der of the constitution assailed in his
person, and all the limitations and bal
ances of the government, which are the
bulwarks of liberty, overturned in the
hot frenzy of partizan zeal.
From Me klpringiletti (.111aac) Sepoblinnw
The only defensible reason for recon
structing the Southern State govern
ments w
,
the purpose to °outer suffrage
on the eedmen, in order to the protec
tion their rights. Those governments
w • •• well enough In every other respect.
this single purpose had ooutrolled in
the matter, the process would have been
eoinparatively simple and unobjectiona
ble. But party objects were allowed to
be mixed in. It witaAtiught it would
be a good thing so to 6audpulate the
Southern governments as to secure the
votes of the reconstructed States for a
Republican President. To accomplish .
this the right to vote and hold office wg.s
taken from all the Southern Whites who
had held office requiring r n oath to sup
port the constitution of the United
States. This excluded at once from poli
tical life the most intelligent classes in
the South, and those at the time best
disposed to accept any terms of reconcili
ation that should be offered. This made
reconstruction by the white population
of the South impossible, for tbey natur
ally felt that it would be dishonorable to
abandon the leaders who shared with
them the guilt of the rebellion. Reeow
structlon was thus thrown into the
Lauds of the negroes, led by a few North
ern white men and Southerners who did
not scruple to take any oath required of
them. That they' should seek to retain
1 power by the same policy which gm e it
to them Is a matter of course, and the
first new constitution framed virtually
excludes nearly every white man from
suffrage and office. 111srao utterly inde
fensible on any, principle of justice and
equality that its. frittnere fear Its rejection
by the registered voters, and are begging
them to accept it in the hope that Coo
greats will strikeout its objectionable pro
visions.'
The course of things in Congress just
now does not tend to sustain any such
hope. It Is essential to the programme
that the whites of the South shall be in
the minority, and the determination
seems to be to put It through at all haz
ards. The last remains of civil govern
ments in the South are swept away upon
the declaration that they are not "repub
lican In form," though the forms are Just
what they always have been. The false
reason has some value, however, as show
ing at least an appearance of respect for
the phases of the constitution. But we
have not come to the end of this busi
ness; we cannot even see to it. The
governments of the minority in the
South, and that minority black, will and
It necessary to he more and more repres
sive, and will need a strong military
force to maintain them. Is anybody so
insane as to predict reconciliation of
races, true republican or even moderately
just government, and restored peace and
loyalty se the result of such a system ?
If so, about how soon? No, the system
is fundamentally wrong, and will inevi
tably wax worse and worse. And men
are already asking how soon "political
necessity" may lead Congress to interfere
with certain Northern States and compel
them to take the "republican form" of
negro suffrage and white disfranchise
ment.

INISOLEACS BIZIVILED.
A short time since, says the Evansville
Courier, the G. A. 11. had a celebration
of some sort at Madison, Indiana, at
which General Nithan Kimball was one
of the principal speakers. It appears
that this blustering hero in his speech
declared that any one who had been a
soldier and does not belong to the Grand
Army of the Republic is a traitor to his
country and recreant to the cause for
which •he fought. 'rhe editor of the
Madison Free /Wee, who was:in the war,
conies back at the doughty General In'
the following severe but Just style:
GEN. NATHAN KIVISALL.-1 3 41* geittle
man whose name heads -this , artieJe Is
making notoriety for himself. Pity, Geri- .
eral, to sully a fairtrillltary retord by
defaming those who may see lit to differ
from you In politics. General, we under
stand you to say that "any one who half
been a soldier and does not belong to the'
Grand Army of the Republic is a trotter
to his country and recreant te-the cause ,
for which he fought." General Kimball,
if you made that remark you lied, and
you knew you -lied,wheu you made It.--
It Is easy for You, General Kimball, who
entered the service as a Colonel, with
the pay of $2 per month, well supplied
with transportation and every luxury
that your rank could commitud, with or
derlies to put pp your tents and numer
ous servants to do your bidding, and soon
promoted to the rank of Brigadier Gen
eral, to receive increased pay and greater
emoluments, and then come home and
receive the political office of Treasure.rof
the State, to denounce theme whdcarrled
on their backs what they ate, what they
slept on, what they rooked In, and what
they did their fighting with, as traitors
because they do not attach thetuselvea to
a secret. dark-lantern association.
You ought to know, General, thit
treason is the highest crime known to
the law. You, in a public speech, take
the opportunity to denounce as traitors
those who prot,bly did a,-gond fighting
as yourself. "These be hard wordsonas.
ter." There was uo occasion for yon to
thus insult those of us Who do not vote
ae you do. And we here reiterate our as
sertion, that If you say all soldiers who
do not belong to the Grand Army of the
Republic are traitors you are a liar, and
coward if you do not 'resent it. You
cannot make the excuse, General Kim-'
ball, that we are unworthy of notice.—
No such coward's plea as that will suffice.
We had the honor of belonging to and
commanding as noble a regiment of In
dianians as ever left our State, and our
record le too well known to ofthr such a
plea to skulk off on.
This is plain talk. The time has come
when Democratic soldiers must no long
er sit "with bated breath and whispered
humbleness" and be denounced as worse
than common felons. It has been ex
pected that slander and abuse can be
heaped upon us because we. do not sell
our principles for the blanblahnients of
those in place and power with impunity.
We, for one, will hurt back such epithets
and cram them arm's length down the
lying throats that utter them.
We could remind General Kimball of
a little incident that occurred at Lexing
ton, Indians, a year or two ago (In which
our friend Colonel Tom Shea was en
gaged,) when he (Kimball) was parading
his sores before the country for a politi
cal office, but we think what we have
said will suffice for the present.
