AT LOW PRICES Whoever yearns to see aright, Because his heart is tender, Shall catch a glimpse of heavenly light In every earthly splendor. So, since the universe began, And till it shall be ended, The soul of Nature, soul of Man, And soul of God are blended! —Atlantic Monthly. At the detheatloa of the Hall sin. Alt. Post No. 9,9iettyaburr. Pa., Sept. 2,1297, by WM. R. EYNTER, P. C. Whilst the grand principle of the 'Universal Brotherhood of mankind remains as yet un recognized, man, nevertheless, feels strongly drawn towards his species, and, with strong, indescribable yearning, seeks to join firm knit bands with those he deems most worthy to be admitted into the grand arena of his ideal sphere. We see the workings of this principle in every direction. 'Beyond the stern necessities of mutual dependence there lies in the field of social, political, religious and prac tical life ,certain clearly defined principles o Eclecticism—Optlmism—whlch are ever tend ing toward the aggregation of similar particles. The lumen race has, not inaptly, been com pared to a train of billiard balls, extending In a row, each single ball frozen in tarn to its neighbor. Touch now but one of these balls and each member of the series feels the action. Impel the first one forward and motion is im parted to aIL And this connection and de pendence is an absolute necessity—it arises from "the nature of things"—it is divine fata lism. The manufacturer depends upon the farmer for his breadstuffs—the farmer on the manufacturer for his clothing and his machi nery. The market gardener tills the ground, which produces abundantly ; the green-grocer buys the produce and supports the gardener; the citizen buys the "truck" again,and sup ports the green-grocer ; he becomes sick ; the doctor is called in to cure the citizen, but looses his case, so the undertaker follows the doctor, the grave-digger the undertaker, and thus the circle come.; back to motherearth again: This mutual connection is what constitutes the basis of civilization. As to what true civil ization itself should consist in—there are too many subtle and nice degiaitions to be examin ed and too many broad principles to be dis cussed, to admit of investigation here ; but we doubt if, after all, there Se much better defini tion than one drawn somewhat from the com position of the word—"to live civilly." • • • Meantime, so soon as this universal con nection of each human being with every other human being began to be recognized, there sprung up the idea of Gbvernment Were we perfect beings our relations might be treated to regulate themselves ; but as we are not it appears necessary that these relations be re gulated on certainlixed principles, either t 7 us or for usi ; and, on the wisdom with which these fixed principles are selected and estab lished, depend to a great extent the happiness of the governed and the safety of the govern ors. Government turns also on not only fixed, but what may, further, be called general principles. Private or special legislation is by no means desirable. Laws are made with reference to all, for the happiness of all and the protection of all. The less necessity for the direct application of their assistance, prohibi tions and punishments, to any special in dividual, the more perfect the state of affairs ; whilst the application of public rewards to private individuals, except for value very plainly received _ is to be carefully shunned.— Thus on the one hand legislation to favor the general advancement of trades and handlersf t is not only allowable but highly commendable, whilst, on the other, the fostering of mono polies and close corporations, which shall re dound to the benefit of thefew to the exclusion of the many, is to be looked at with a Jealous eye, and, except under extraordinary circum stances, carefully guarded against. • • Government, then, turns its attention to the regulation of the general business relations of, the hiunan race, views man as man in the' abstract, and seldom comes in constant with , the individual, save through its executive of ficials, when that individual contravenes or comes in conflict with its general laws is per tictdar cases. But for even this there must be a vest expenditure of time and labor, not to mention the outside speculation and ,re-' search to which rulers and leg•islators innst be, given. Yet beyond the rights of persons.and, the rigida ettbins, public wrongs and private wrongs, there remain thousand necteatitiee on which mazes bappineo more 'or leas de-: peqs, but Which by laws and impala= must be stilt untonclied.

THE *E TERM OF NATITRE. BY fazonoss Trurox. The works of God are fair for naught, Unless our eyes, in seeing, See hidden In the thing the thought That animates its being. The outward form is not the whole, But every part is moulded To image forth an inward soul, That dimly is unfolded. The shadow, pictured in the lake By every tree that trembles, Is cast for more than just the sake Of that which it resembles. The dew falls nightly, not alone Because the meadows need it, But on an errand of its own To Iniman souls that heed it. The stars are lighted in the skies ' Not merely fttr their shining,. But, like the looks of loving eyes, Have meanings worth divining. The waves that moan along the shore, The windfk that sigh in blowing, ♦re sent to teach a mystic lore Which Inen are wise in knowing. The clouds around the mountain-peak, The rivers in their winding, Have secrets which, to RA who seek, Are precious in the Ending, Thlui Nature dwells within our reach, But, though we stand so near her, We still interpret half her speech With ears too dull to hear her.

For the tmehilotiophicsl and unreasoning man, health, food, raiment and a small a mount of liberty would be ,sufficient to con stitute happiness; and, if he were bothered with but a moderate amount of foresight, a fair prospect of the continuance of these would ensure his present contentment. He is even willing to toil, and toll hard—fig I doubt if successful work be naturally repugnant to any man. But man thinks. From the divinity within comes a longing for something better and higher ; he must raise his standard and with it that of his fellow mortals. He muse have a hope of something in the future ; or the god like within will 'shrivel and die. And, to the thinking man, there comes, before long, a sense of his own weakness. / there may be those who feel placed beyond- the pale of ne cessary dependence and the 'Want of outside assistance ; but be sure, they are monsters— in some direction then want much to com pensate for their over developement in the others. • • * • And man is social. True be may toil wears. ly and alone through the sweltering day ; bnt hs has before him the prospect of a reunion, before long, with others of his own species. — The dreariest punishment is that of solitary confinement. By common consent the type of mournful wretchedness is Alex. Selkirk— monaro of all he surveyed, yet out of hu manity's reach. Further, man is eclectic in his nature.— "Sweets to the Sweet !" "Birds of a feather flock together. " "A fellow feeling makes us wondrous kind." The reckless thief would hardly be interested in the formation of a Morrie Insurance Company ; but the author, publisher and bookseller make common cause with the inventor who cheapens the cost of paper.— Art associations, trades, unions, literary ,cir cles, sporting clubs, all bud and blossom vi,gor ously. The true history of mankind is the history of social relations--using• the word social as relating to the intercourse of man kind Irrespective of so much of it as is re gulated or compelled by government and its laws. And in that history you will find the records of more than one organizltion, fulfill ing more or less perfectly the ideals which caused its foundation. Leaving out of so , count those formed for the protection of any one particular trade, we find that the mass of organizations---erpeclally those so called "Se cret ones"—have looked towards the benefit of their members in one of two directions—either their benefit through political influence, or through what may be called direct social means. Of these the Carbonarii on the one hand, the Masons and Odd Fellows on the other, may be instanced as examples. The G. A. It, to a certain extent, belongs to both claims. Not that it is a political organi zation in the usual acceptation of the phrase. It is founded on no hungering and thinning after the loaves and fishes of office ; but it has, nevertheless, inscribed on its banners the cheering watchword: "Patriots to the front!" It seeks not—nay it rather turns from inter mixture with the hollow political schernts of the day ; and yet it recognizes the fact that he who bee entered its carefully guarded portals is surely pre-eminently worthy of any position to which the people may call him, and for that worainess.they freely advance shoulder to shoulder in his support. In thiS they are de fensive and not offensive ; in this they but keep their troth with honor truth and justice. The professional politician of the crafty, schem ing, cold-bloojled type, great for spoils, little for country, nowhere in the hour of danger and-the clash of arms--such'it would totally ignore or entirely disown. Solidity, truth, courage, patriotism, intelligence—these are our jewels—these, culled from the flower of the citizen soldiery of the Republic, represent the Gra* Army of the Republic. Between their fraternal association and the bonds - of political organization there is a world wide difference. Let us now look briefly at some of its direc social features. It gives to its members. who may find them selves in a strange place, admission into a ftaternity,'the worthiness of each member of which is speedily vouched for, not alone by the hurried repo, of some careless commit tee—but by the record of the rolls. It proposes to take this strange member and assist him—as it does the members of that particular Post—in whatever way it can. By means of an employment committee it would keep in vie* supply and demand in the occu- Lion market, and see that to the very verge of possibility membens of the G. A. R. have a titir opportunity honorably and honestly to gain their living. Is the bomrade sick? It proposes to visit him in his sickness, to watch over him, to do all for him that may be practicable and neces sary. It proposes to assist by every means in its power the widowd and orphans of the Repub lic—considering them a rich legacy which we are bound in every way to cherish. It seeks to create, and when the objects of the society are carried out, it must create, a social harmony amongst its members, which must, in every way, redound to their advan I=l It would contribute to the mental and mor al advancement of its members both in nega- tive and positive ways, both by example and exercise; would train them up as worthy freemen, Intelligent voters, thorough reason- ens; world keep burning brightly the fires of patriotism and love of country, and finally, mould - sacrifice, if need be, its last drop of blood In defence of our glorious nation.

II A Seam:nous Doo.-The Milwaukee Sentinel relates the following : Dog stories have come to be considered stale, fiat and unprofitable, but an instance of the - vonderful sagacity of one of these animals, which came under our notice yesterday, is worthy of mention. A large and noble looking Newfoundland dog, while crossing Spring street bridge, dropped his muzzle, but not seeming to wish to part with such a firm friend, he picked it up in his teeth. Coming to the corner of Wisconsin and East Water streets, he laid hid muzzle down before a number of gentlemen standing there, and as plain as actions could speak, be sought them to replace it over his nose. He placed his proboscis in its proper place, am% with a wine and a pleading look sought to at tract the attention of some friend who could aid him to re-muzzle himself. Observing a couple of policemen coming along the street, he seized s his muzzle and in an affrighted manner ran across the street, where he renewed his importunities to paw em-by, keeping, meanwhile, &jealous eye up on the "stars" who were loitering near. The police once more came near him, which caus ed him, with a growl, to run to another cor ner out of their reach. About this time, an. old friend of the does—probably his master —came along. To him the dog addressed himself as beforee, pleading to have the muz zled replaced. The gentleman at first paid no attention to him, and was just crossing the bridge when the sagacious animal plac4ll him self directly across the pathway, and refused to let him peas, at the same time showing, by unmistakable signs,what he wished. The gentleman, rightly divining what was want ed, {eplaced the muzzle on the dog's head, and passed on. The joy of the animal knew no bounds at this happy result, and he leaped and frisked about in the most frantic man ner. The "stars" had tie longer any terror for him, and he passed them by with a defi ant growl, evidently well knowing that they were enemies of his race, but that he, for one, was Safe from their destroying power. ' 7, SCOLD INC. —lf laughter begets fat, it Is no less true that scolding is the parent of meagerness. Who ever saw a plump termagant? The vira go is ;scraggy--scragginess is the badge of all her tribe. It would seem that the attrition of a fierce, exacting temper gives sharpness to the human frame as inevitably as a gritty grindstone puts a wiry edge on a broad axe. Artists understand this fact,and govern them selves accordingly. They invariably repre sent ladies supposed to be given to "the rampage" as remarkably high in bone.— Shrews are thus depicted in comic valentines, and all the illustrations of "Curtain Lectures" have presented the "rib" of Mr. Caudle with out a particle of fat. Lavater, referring to fe male fire brands, says flatly to their faces that their noses are sharp.
