'ltt.ertsting
Starting in Life,
:When a young man has thoroughly com
prehended the fact that he knows nothing .
and that intrinsically he is of little value,
the next lesson is, that the world cares noth
ing about him.- He is the subject of no man's
overwhelming admiration ; neither petted by
the one sex, nor envied by the other, be has
to take care of him. He will not be noticed
until he becomes noticable ;'he will not be
come- noticable' until - he does something to
prove that he is of some use to society. No
recommendations or introductions will give
this, or ought to give him it ; he must do
something to be recognized by somebody.
There is plenty of room for men in the
world, but there is no room for idlers. So
ciety is not very particular what a man does,
so long as he does something useful to prove
himself to be a man ; but it will not take the
matter on trust.
There is no surer sign of a cowardly and
unmanly spirit than a vague desire for help
—a - wish to depend, to lean on somebody,
and enjoy the fruits of other people's indus
try. There are multitudes of young men
who indillge in dreams of help from some
quarter coming in at a convenient moment
to enable them to secure the success in life
which they covet. The vision haunts them
of some benevolent old gentleman with a
pocket full of money, a box full of scrip, a
trunk full of mortgages, and a mind remark
ably appreciative of merit and genius, who
will, perhaps, give or lend them from one
thousand to ten thousand dollars, with which
they may commence business, and go on
swimmingly. Perhaps he will take a differ
ent turn and send them to college, from which
they will emerge into ecclesiastical populari
ty, and rise up in a fat bishopric or deanery,
at least.
One of the most painful sights in the world
is that of a young man, with a strong consti
tution and a presentable figure, standing with
his hands in his pockets, longing for help.—
There are positions in which the most inde
pendent spirit may gracefully and gratefully•
accept assistance; may, in fact, as a choice
of evils, desire it ; but for a man who is able
to help himself to seek help, is positive proof
that he has been unfortunately trained, and
that an indolent bias exists in his character.
Let us not be misunderstood. We would not
inculcate the pride of independence, which,
in its sensitiveness, repels the good offices of
friends—what we condemn in a young man
is the habit of dependence which makes him
anxious to accept as a favor those things
which he can readily acquire by his own in
dustrious exertions. A man who willingly
receives assistance, especially if he has applied
for it, sells hiinself to his benefactor, unless
his patron happens to be a man of sense, who
is giving absolutely necessary assistance to
one whom he knows to be both sensitive and
honorable.
When a young man has ascertained the
fact that his success in life must depend on
his own exertions, and that he must look to
himself, and not to others, for assistance, he
is in a fair position for beginning life.
A Permanent Home
To have a home which a man has himself
reared or purchased—a home which he has
improved - or beautified—a home, indeed,
which, with honest pride and natural love,
he calls his own is an additional security
for any man's virtue. Such a home he leaves
with regret; to it he gladly returns. There
he finds innocent and satisfying pleasures.—
There his wife and little ones are happy and
safe, and there all his best affections take
root and grow. To such a pair, as time ad
vances, the abode of - their early and middle
life, whence they have, perhaps, all departed,
become constantly more dear; for it is now a
scene of precio - us memories—the undisturbed,
declining years !. And say—what lapse of
time, what varied experience of prosperity
or sorrow can ever efface the good impression
made by such a home on the tender heart of
childhood? To the tempted youth, to the
wanderer from virtue, to the sad victim of
misfortune, such remembrance has often
proved a strengthening monitor, or a healing
balm. Nor can this kindly influence wholly
fail so long Lis the dear objects of that famil
iar scene retain a place in memory, connec
ted, as they inseparably are, with thoughts
of a father's counsels, a mother's tenderness,
a sister's purity, and a brother's love.
KEEP Goon COMPANY.—lnteicourse with
persons of decided virtue and excellence is
of great importance in the formation of a
good character. The force of example is
powerful. We are creatures of imitation,
and, by a necessary influence, our habits and
tempers are very much formed on the model
of those with whom we familiarly associate.
" I didn't dare to tell you, wife, be
fore we were married, that my teeth are falsef
" I could get along well enough with you,
husband, if your teeth were the only false
thing you carry in your mouth."
1 "I am afraid you will come to want,"
said an old lady to a young gentleman.
"I have come to want already," he re
plied—" I want your daughter !"

lady if he could, but, as be can't, does all
in his power to show the world that he is
not a man.

NIEDICAL SCIENCE.
The history of "UOOFLAND'S GERMAN BlT
.l.*Eitti,".the most remarkable medicine of the day, and
the many cures that have been performed with it in cases
of LIVER COMPLAINT, DYSPEPSIA, NERVOUS DE
BILITY, and diseases arising from a disordered liver or
stomach, place it among the most astonishing discoveries
that have taken place in the medical world. The diseases
to which these Bitters are applicable are so universal, that
there are but few of our friends who may not test their
:virtues in their own families or circle of acquaintances,
and prove to their own satisfaction that there is at least
one remedy among the many advertised medicines, deser
ving the public commendation. It is a fact that, in the
minds of many persons, a prejudice exists against what
are called Patent Medicines; but why should this prevent
you resorting to an article that has such an array of tes
timony to support it as llootiand's German Bitters? Phy
sicians prescribe it, Why should you discard it? Judges,
usually considered men of talent, have and do use it in
their own families. Why should you reject it? Clergy
men, and those the most eminent, take it; why should
not yout Let not your prejudice usurp your reason, to
the everlasting injury of your health; if you are sick, and
require a medicine, try these Bitters.
These Bitters are prepared and sold by Dr. C. M, Jack
son, No. 418 Arch street, Philadelphia, Pa., and by drug
gists and storekeepers in every town and village in the
United States, Canadas, West Indies, and South America,
at 75 cents per bottle. See that the signature of C. M.
Jackson is on the wrapper of each bottle.

TED FAMILY SEWING DIACLIINES.
.New Styles—Prices from $5O to $125. Extra
Charge of $5 for Hemmers.
495 Broadway, New York.
730 Chestnut street, Philadelphia.
These Machines sew from two spools, as purchased from
the store, requiring no re-winding of thread; they Ilem,
Fell, Gather, and Stitch in a superior style, finishing each
seam by their own operation, without recourse to the
hand-needle, as is required by other machines. They will
do better and cheaper sewing than a seamstress can, even
if she works for one cent an hour, and are, unquestionably,
the best Machines in the market for family sewing, on ac
count of their simplicity, durability, ease of management,
and adaptation to all varieties of family sewing—executing
either heavy or fine work with equal facility, and without
special adjustment.
As evidence cf the unquestioned superiority of their
Machines, the GROPER & BAKER SEWING MACIIINE CO:SPARE
beg leave to respectfully refer to the the following
TESTIMONIALS
"Having had one of Grover & Baker's Machines in my
family for nearly a year and a-half, I take pleasure in
commending it as every way reliable for the purpose for
which it is designed—Family Sewing.”—Mrs. Joshua
Leavitt, wife of Rev. Dr. Leavitt, Editor of N. Y. Indepen
dent.
"I confess myself delighted with your Sewing Machine,
which has been in my family for many months. It has
always been ready for duty, requiring no adjustment, and
is easily adapted to every variety of family sewing, by
simply changing the spools of thread."—Zers. Elizabeth
Strickland, wife of Rev. Dr. Slrickland, Editor of N. Y.
Christian Advocate.
_
"After trying several different good machines, I pre
ferred yours, on account of its simplicity, and the perfect
ease with which it is managed, as well as the strength and
durability of the seam. After long experience, I feel com
petent to speak in this manner,
and to confidently recom
mend it for every variety of family sewing."4—Mrs. E.
13. Spooner, wife of the , rditor of Brooklyn Star.
"I have used a Gnovmt. & BARER Sewing Machine for
two years, and have found it adapted to all kinds of fam
ily sewing, from Cambric to Broadcloth. Garments have
been worn out without the giving way of a stitch. The
Machine is easily kept in order, and easily used."—Mrs.
.4. B. Whipple, wife of Rev. Geo. Whipple, Xew York.
" Your Sewing Machine has been in use in my family
the past two years, and the ladies request me to give you
their testimonials to its perfect adaptedness, as well as la
bor-saving qualiti s in the performance of family and
household sewing."—Bobert Boorman, New York.
"For several months we have used Grover & Baker's
Sewing Machine, and have come to the conclusion that ev
ery lady who desires her sewing beautifully and guickly
done, would be most fortunate in possessing one of these
reliable and indefatigable 'iron needle-women,' whose com
bined qualities of beauty, strength and simplicity, are in
valuable."—J. Morrie, daughter of Gen. Geo. P. Illorris,
Editor of the Home ‘Tournal.
.Extract of a letter from THOS. R. LrAvrrr, Esq., an
American gentleman, now resident in Sydney, New South
Wales, dated January 12, 1858:
"1 had a tent made in Melbourne, in 1853, in which
there were over three thousand yards of sewingdone with
one of Grover & Baker's Machines, and a single seam of that
has outstood all the double seams sewed by sailors with a
needle and twine."
"If Homer could be called up from his murkyhades, he
would sing the advent of Grover & Baker as a more be
nignant miracle of art than was ever Vulcan's smithy.
He would denounce midnight shirt-making as 'the direful
spring of woes unnumbered.'"—Prof.-North.
"I take pleasure in saying, that the Grover & Baker
Sewing Machines have more than sustained my expecta
tion. After trying and returning others, I have three of
them in operation in my different places, and, after four
years' trial, have no fault to find."---,T. H. Hammond, Sen
ator of South Carolina.
"My wife has had one of Grover Sr, Baker's Family Sew
ing Machines for sonic time, and I am satisfied it is one of
the best labor-saving machines that has been invented. I
take much pleasure in recommending it to the public."—
.T. G. Hams, Governor of Tennessee.
"It is a beautiful thing, and puts everybody into an ex
citement of good humor. Were I a Catholic, I should in
sist upon Saints Grover and Baker having an eternal holi
day in commemoration of their good deeds for humanity."
—Cassias M. Ciay.
"I think it by far the best patent in use. This Machine
can be adapted from the finest cambric to the heaviestcas
&mere. It sews stronger, nester, and more beautifully
than one can imagine. If mine could not be replaced,
money could not bny it."—Nrs. J. G. Brown, Nashville, Tenn.
"It is speedy, very neat, and durable in its work ; is ea
sily understood and kept in repair. I earnestly recom
mend this Machine to all my acquaintances and others."----
Mrs. 3f. A. Ibrrest, Memphis, Tenn.
"We find this Machine to work to our satisfaction, and
with pleasure recommend it to the public, as we believe the
Grover & Baker to be the best Sewing Machine in use."---
Decry Brothers, Allisonia, Tenn.
"If used exclusively for family purposes, with ordinary
care, I will wager they will last one 'three score years and
ten,' and never get out of fix."—Tohn Erskine, Nashville,
Tenn.
"I have had your Machine for several weeks, and am
perfectly satisfied that the work it does is the best and most
beautiful that ever was matle."—Naggie Aim son , .dash
rifle, Tenn.
"I use my Machine upon coats, dressmaking, and fine
linen stitching. and the work is admirable—far better than
the best hand-sewing, or any other machine I have ever
seen."—Lucy B. Thompson, Nashville, Run.
"I find the work the strongest and most beautiful I have
ever seen, made either by hand or machine, and regard the
Grover & Baker Machine as one of the greatest blessings to
our sex."—Mrs. Taylor, Nashville, Tenn.
"I have one of Grover & Baker's Sewing Machines in
use in my family, and find it invaluable. I can confidently
recommend it to all persons in want of a machine."—G.
Thompson, Nashville, Tenss.
"I take pleasure in certift•ing to the utility of the Gro
ver & Baker Sewing Machines. I have used one on almost
every description of work for months, and find it much
stronger and better in every respeCt than work done by
hand. —Mrs. D. 11: Wheeler, Nashville, Tenn.
"I would be unwilling to dispose of my Grover & Baker
Machine for a large amount, could I not replace it again at
pleasure."—Mrs. H. G. Seovel, Nashville, Tenn.
"Our two machines, purchased from you, do the work
of twenty young ladies. We with pleasure recommend
the Grover & Baker Sewing Machine to be the best in use."
—IV. Stillman c 6 Co., Memphis, Tenn.
"The Grover & Baker Sewing Machine works admirably.
I think the stitch and work far superior to that of any
Sewing Machine I ever saw. On fine work. I think the
Machine would be hard to beat."—.T. Davie, Memphis,
Tenn.
4, I find the Machine easily managed, very durable, and
take pleasure in recommending it to all who wish conve
nience, economy, and pleasure."—Nrs. F. Taus, .11emphis,

satisfaction that we cheerfully recommend them to all who

other machine I have seen."—Mrs. B. B. Mitchell, Mem
phis, Tenn.
"I am happy to give my testimony in favor of Grover
& Baker's Sewing Machine and of the perfect satisfaction
it gives in every respect. It sews neatly, and is by no
means complicated, and I prefer it to all others I have
seen,'.'—Hrs. Bryan, wife of Bev. 4. M. Bryan, Memphis,
Tenn.
"It affords me much pleasure to say, that the Machine
works well; and I do not hesitate to recommend it as pos
sessing all the advantages you claim for it. My wife is
very much pleased with it, and we take pleasure in certi
fying to this effect."—R. a Brinkley, Memphis ' Tenn.
"lt gives me pleasure to find the Grover d; Baker Sew

"Having seen, examined, and used many other kinds of
Sewing Machines, I feel free to say, that the Grover & Ba
ker Machines are far superior to all others in use."—N.

not take five times its cost, if I could not supply its place.
With it I can do all my family sewing in about one-fourth
the time I could with my hands."—M. J. Scott, Nashville,
