Life is full of cares and troubles,
Scarce a bright and sunny spot ;
Not a place within its wildwood,
Where a shadow pierces not;
Not a bright and dancing streamlet
Undisturbed by rod; or shoal;
Not a barque that glides on smoothly
With its freight, a precious soul.
Not a flower but that is hiding
Many n thorn whose sting is deep ;
Not a valley where the -
Withered not by storm winds sleep
There may be a bright oasis,
One small island over green ;
Soon we sweep past flowery shores
Which by us no more are seen.
Though the willows kiss the water,
On our barque is gliding still,
Poet the bright and sunny bower,
Hastening on against our will ;
Though we grasp the slender reedlets
Growing on the shell-lined beach,
Soon the breakers sweep us from them ;
Toss their heads beyond our teach.
Yet we know there is n harbor
In the far-off distant laud,
Whore we'll anchor safely, surely,
When we reach the sunny strand ;
There's a father waiting for us,
Opening wide his loving arms;
Soon will we bo sheltered in them,
. Sure frum earth's deluding charms
Idleness is the nurse of all vices. It
moves so slowly that they all overtake
it. The Germans and the Italians say,
proverblally, that "idleness is the dev
il's pillows." Some affect to excuse
this hydra.headed habit by asking
what harm can a person do when ho
does nothing ? The reply is ready and
plain. He .who is passive in allowing
decay is himself a destroyer. While
standing still and refusing to help he
.obstructs the progress of others. Wo
'are told in Holy. Writ: "By much
slothfulness the building decayeth, and
through idleness of the hands the
house droppeth through." And again
it is said : "I went to the field of the
slothful and by theyineyard of the man
void of understanding, and to! it was
all overgrown with thorns, and nettles
had covered the face thereof, and the
stone wall thereof was braken down."
The words of Cato, the elder, are in the .
proverb, "that one who does nothing
learns to do evil." Idleness has been
well described to be -a moral leprosy,
which soon eats its way into the heart
and corrodes our happiness, while it
unde . rmines our health. Idleness is
costly, without being a luxury. Mon
taigne always wound up the year's ac
count of his expenses with the follow
ing entry : "Item—for my abomina•
We habit of idleness, a thousand livres?!
We toil for leisure only to discover,
when we have succeeded in our object,
that leisure is a great evil. How
quickly would the working class be
reconciled to what they may call the
hardships of compulsory occupation, if
they were doomed only for a short
time to the greater hardships of com
pulsory idleness. They would quickly
find that it is much better to wear out
than to rust out. The idle man is at
the mercy of all the vices. The work
ing man, on the contrary, finds a safe
guard in his occupation, which leaves
no time for temptations nor desire to
yield to them. It was well said, by
the oldest of the Greek poets, that "the
laborer is the sentinel of virtue."
HUNTINGDON, PA
MRS. GRUNDY SPOILS OUR GIRLS.—
Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, who, by
the way, is a good teacher, gives some
good advice about the girls, and it is a
pity his advice could not be heeded.
By-and-by there will bo no girls and
children; they will all be women from
ton to twenty years old. Mr. Beecher
says:
"A girl is not allowed to ho a girl
after she is ten years old. If you treat
her as though she was one she win - ask
you what you mean. If she- starts to
run across the street, she is brought
baiik to the nursery to listen to a lec
ture on the propriety of womanhood.
Now it scorns to me that a girl Should
be nothing but a girl until she is seven
teen. Of course there are proprieties
belonging to her sex which it is fitting
for her to observe, but it seems to me
that, aside from these, she ought to
have the utmost latitude. She ought
to be encouraged to do much out of
doors—to run and exercise in all those
ways which aro calculated to develop
the muscular frame. What is true of
boys in the matter of bodily health, is
eminently so of girls. It is all impor
tant that woman' should bo healthy
and well developed. Man votes, writes,
does business, etc., but woman is the
teacher and the mother of the world;
and anything that deteriorates woman
is a comprehensive plague on life it
self. Health among women is a thing
that every man, who is wise and con
siderate for his race, should more earn
estly sock and promote."
tts„,The world is crazy fin. show.
There is not ono person in a thousand
who dares lall back on his real, simple
self, for power to get through the
world, and exact enjoyment as he goes
along. There is too much living in the
oyes of other people. There is no end
to the aping, the mimicry, theildso
airs and the superficial airs. It re
quires rare courage, we admit, to live
up to one's enlightened convictions in
these days. Unless you consent to
join in the general cheat, there in no
room for you among the great mob of
pretenders. If a man dares to live
Within his moans, and is resolute in his
purpose pot to appear more than he
really is, lot him be applauded, There
is something fresh and invigorating in
such an example, and we should honor
and uphold such n man with all the
energy in our power.

LIFE'S VOYAGE
Idleness.
-PERSEVERE.-
Beware of Pickpockets,
A RAILROAD STORY
"Beware of pickpockets, Joshua,"
said Joshua Harker's mother to her
grown up son, when that interesting
youth was about starting to visit his
aunt Betsy Baker, who lived seventy
live miles off, in the village of ciray
burg.
" res'm," responded Joshua dutifully,
"I'll keep my eyes peeled •for 'em.
Guess if they ketch this child nappin',
they'll rise earlier than they're used
to."
"That's right, my lad; rollers know
ed that you was the smartest of tho
family, Joshua, but I guess When you
come to go about to see things you'll
turn out to be smarter'n ever I tho't.
There's the keers comin'nOw. Look
out, and hold on to your valise !—And
don't forget to be careful of your fath
er's watch, and don't smoke no cigars,
nor drink no orator without lookin'
into it, kaso there was a woman,
hearn Betsy tell about, out there,
drinkt a live Snake ! And do try and
not dirty more'n two dickeys a week;
it'll make such hard washin for your
aunt, and she's got the rumatiz, you
pow !—Now look. out for your pocket
ook ! Tell Betsy to send me that
remote for colorin blue, and midriff that
quince sass— and—lordy ! hero they
be !" and with : a kiss that. made the
very locOmotivo give a snort of amaze
ment, Mrs. Ilarke: tore herself away.
Joshua seated hiMself in tho very
middle of the;car—he had heard it said
that there was less dang er there, and
holding the valise on lis lap, ho put
000 hamlon his watch and the other
on his pocket book, and mentally de
fied pickpockets. 110 bad board so
much about their doings in the cars,
that ho thought it was impossible to
use too much precaution.
At the next station they took on a
very pretty but decidedly nervous
young lady in a blue bonnet and pink
dress. She passed beside Joshua and
asked timidly—
"ls this seat engaged ?"
"No, not that I know of," stammer
ed Joshua, blushing up
. to his hair.
"Want to sot down ?"
"Thank you," and she sat down so
gracefully that her expansive crinoline
spread entirely over Joshua's knees
and valise, and completely enveloped
our hero in an avalanche of flounces,
shawl fringe, &c.
Roth of the young people.seenned
very much frighteneet. — Jostma — tegu
to finger his pocket hook nervously,
shifting it from his pocket to his coat,
from thence to his vest, and finally de
posited it in his hat, wishing at the
same time that he could drop it in his
boot.
The young lady fidgeted, and eyed
her companion askauco—pulling her
bonnet strings, and clutched the han
dle of her reticule. Btlt after a little
while both seemed to get easier and
Joshua screwed up courage enough to
say something.
"Fine day, warm."
"Yes rather cold, though."
"That's a fact. Cooler than it was
yesterday."
"Yes sir, but not quite so cool as it
was last winter."
"No; keel Terrible cold Friday last
winter, wasn't there ?"
"Awful. Was you out any?"
"Out! I rather guess I was out in
a spruce swamp driving old Buck and
Broad all day IL--Golly how the frost
stood on ''em. "
"Yes, I thinks likely."
A. dead silence. .At last with a des
perate effort at sociability, Joshua as
ked the lady.
"Going fur ?"
"To G ray hu'rg ?"
"You hain't! SO be I. Quite a con
tingency, haint it?"
They were beginning to got better
acquainted with each other. Joshua
now took his hand away from his
watch and put it round the back of
the seat.
"Going to stay thoro long, Miss ?"
"A. week, I guess."
"Be you! About as long as I be,"
responded Joshua, lotting his hand rest
on the back of her shawl, and feeling
very much as when Deacon Jones
caught him robbing his pear tree. The
young lady drew back.
"LaW, you musn't do so, sir. It aint
proper."
"I'd like to know what's to 'tender,"
said Joshua boldly.
"Why the folks will sco us," said the
lady.
Who keors," said Joshua. "I'm
twentyono years old. I'vo got my
father's watch in my pocket and ton
dollars besides! Mind, forgetting he
had depiisited his wallet in his hat, he
felt for it in his pocket.
"Jerusalem !" roared Joshua, spring
ing to his feet in terrible dismay, "taint
there ! Pre been robbed! It's gone
somebody's committed arson to my
person and pocket! Joahnii glared nt
the young lady by his side, who was
now getting as excited as, he was him
self, and was busy feeling first in one
pocket and then in her reticule.
"You've got it !" thundorcd he. "I
ort to have knowed you wasn't re
spectable ! boom marot say a
hundred times that no decent woman
wore ono of thorn Waterfalls. You got
it while I was huggin you. I had no
business to hug anotber gal when I'm
keepin' company with Boggy Ann
Ten dollars that father got for brindle
calf! Hand it over, or by scissors I'll
search ye if ye bo a woman !"
The young lady sprang up-----her face
red and her eyes blazing—she too had
read the newspapers and heard of pick
pockets.
An angry man is a fearful sight, but
can't compare with g. 4 angry woman.
And this ono was raging. She brand
ished her parasol in one hand and her
reticule in the other.
vb.
"You've stolen my portmonio," said
she. You've taken advantage of an in
nocent., unprotected female and played
the part of a pickpocket ! I might a'
known that you was one ! I've heern
say they allers had red noses. Con
ductor ! here ! hero! This white eyed
rascal has got my portmonio and Joe's
miniature—and he hugged me—and
he's got my pocket haadkerchief—oh,
dear! dear! I wish I had stayed to
hum."
"Don't believe a word she says !"
cried Josh. "She's 'yin. She's the ono ,
that's boon stealin. Silo . picked my
pocket .of everything 'there was in it,
everything but my fathoi.'B . watch . and
a plug ortobacker, &cane search her.
Dear suz! I'm ashamed of myself ! I
was so startled that I couldn't cut my
own fodder, and mind my P's and Q's.
How I wish Marin' was here—she'd
know just what to do,'l'll see it I can't
do something," and he began to climb .
over the seat.
The girl seized him by the coat tail.
"No you don't!" screamed she, f'not
by a. long chalk ! You think you're
gettin off with my things do you! I'll
let you know to the contrary ! You'll
wish your cake dough if you don't de
liver up my portmonio. Stop him,
some of you-- 7 he's - goilf to jump off the
car with my valuables, an' I'll die if he
shall. Con•duc•tor ! he's got Joe's min
iature ! Do stop him !"
By this time the whole car load-of
passengers wore aroused to the condi
tion of things, and as is natural in such
things,.there was a division of opinion.
Some took sides with the woman and
some with Josh.
Joshua's senses began to be slightly
muddled. A half score of people worn
heading him off, and that terrible
young lady in a pink dress was cling
ing to his coat skirts, and his pocket
book was gone. He felt desperate.
"Stand aside, every ono of you," ho
cried to the passengers before him, and
just than the ears gave a lurch, a 4 they
are in the habit of doing, and Josh
went head first against the stomach of
a fat woman who had risen to see what
was the matter.
The woman went over, Josh went,
so did the young lady in pink, and the
whole crowd fell on a seat where a

A LITTLE QUAKERESS IN A Iluttay. 7 —
An amusing matrimonial story is told
of the olden time in England. It so fell
out that two young people became at
tached to each other, as young people
sometimes do. Tho young woman's
father was a wealthy Quaker, the
young man was "poor but respectable."
The father could stand no such union,
and resolutely opposed it, and the
daughter dared not disobey openly.
She met him by moonlight, while she
pretended never to"see him, and she
pined and wasted in spite of herself.
She was really in love—a state of sighs
and tears which women oftener reach
in imagination than reality. So the
father remained inexorable. Time
passed on, and the rose on Mary's da
mask cheek. passed
. off. She let not
concealment, like a worm in the bud,
prey on that damask cheek, however ;
but when her father asked her why
she pined, she always told him. Tho
old gentleman was a widower, and
loved his girl 'dearly. Ilad it been a
widowed mother who had nary in
charge. a woman's pride rover would
have given away before the iniportu•
nities of a daughter. Men are not,
however, so stubborn in such matters,
and when the father saw that • the
daughter's heart, Was really set upon
the match, he surprised her one day by
breaking out : "Mary, rather than
mope to death, thou hadst bettor mar
ry as thee chooses, and when thee
pleases."
And what did Mary 7 Wait till the
birds of the air had told her swain of
the charge, or till her father had time
to change - his mind ? Not a bit of it.
She clapped her neat, plain bonnet on
her bead, walked directly into the
street, and then as directly to the house
of her intended as the street could
carry her. She walked into the house
without knocking—for knocking was
not fashionable then—and she found
the family just sitting to dinner. Sono
little commotion was exhibited at so
unexpected an apparition as an heiress
in the widow's cottage, but film heeded
it not. 'John looked up inquiringly.
She walked to him and took his hand
in hers. "John," said she, "father says
I may have thee." And John got di
rectly up from the dinner table and
went to the parson's. In just twenty
few, minutes they were mart and
"po you thinlg mu guilty of false
hood?" asked Mr. Knott, of a gentle
man ho was addressing. "Sir," said
the gentleman, "I must render a ver•
diet of Knott guilty.'.'

TALKING FlNE. — Ludicrous blunders
sometimes occur in cases where igno
rant persons attempt the use of lan
guage about the meaning they know
nothing.
Not long since, while travelling from
Pittsburgh to Cincinnati, two rather
verdant specimens of the female sox
came on board the boat at one of the
landings, who for the sake - of distinc
tion, 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 genteel society. Jane, the
younger, had never mixed in soCiety to
any exten -iernguago -tsar 'snob
as she-bad hoard among her rustic as.
sociates. Mary Was aware of this fact,
and therefore cautioned her to obServe
how she (Mary) acted, end goVern
herself -Record i ngly. ' .
Shortly after, while seated at the
dinner 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
material." He accordingly gave her
. a piece, and then inquired of Jane
what part she would prefer?
"I. believe I will take a piece of the
immaterial too !"
The . scene that followed this daelar-:
ution is boyond- the power of the pen
to describe. The assembled company
were obliged, to give a spontaneous
vent to their surcharged feelings in
peals of boisterous laughter; whilst
the poor girl, her face suffused' with
crimson blushes,
left the table, declar
ing, as she left the cabin ;" "They won't
ketch me on one of those pesky steam
boats any more." •
A STORY FOR SWEARERS.-A gentle
man once .board a laboring man swear
dreadfully in the:presence of a number
of his companions. He 'told him it
was a cowardly thing to Swear so in
company, when ho dared not do it by
himself. The man said he was not
afraid to swear at any time or place.
"I'll givo you ten dollars," said the
gentleman, "If you will go into the
village churchyard, at twelve b'cloCk
to-night, and swear the. same oaths
which you have uttered, hero, when
you aro alone with your God."'
"Agreed," said the miin, "its an
easy way of earning ten dollars."
"Well you come to Me: to morrow,
and say you have done it, and the
money is yours."
The time passed . on ; Midnight came.
The man went to the graveyard. It
was a_ni,rlitef pitehr darkness. As ho
entered the graveyard not a sound was
hoard ; all was still as death. Thou the
gentleman's words, "alone with God,"
came over him with a wonderful pow
or. The thought of the wickedness ho
had committed, and what he had come
there to do, darted through his mind
like a flash of lightning. Ho trembled
at his folly. Afraid to take another
step be fell on his knees, and instead
of the dreadful oaths he came to utter,
the Wriest cry. went up, '.God be mer
ciful to me a sinner l"
The next day he wont to the gentle
man, and thanked him for what he
had done,.and said he, had resolved not
to swear another oath as long as he
lived.—llarpers Weekly.
BEAUTIFUL LESSON.---SOMO time ago
a boy was discoverod in the street, ev
idently intelligent, but sick: A man
who had the feeling of kindness strong
ly developed, went to ask hitn what-he
was doing there. •
"Waiting for God to come to me."
"What do you mean ?" said the gen
tleman, touched by the pathetic tone of
the answer of the 'boy, in whose eyes.
and flushed face he saw the evidence
of fever.
"God sent for mother and father and
little brother, and took thorn away to
his home up in the sky; and mother
told mo when she was sick, that God
would take Care of me. I have no home,
nobody to give me anything, and so
came out hero, and have boon looking
so long up in the sky for God to come
and take care of me, as mother said ho
would. He will tome, won't be ?
or never told a lie
"Yes, my lad," said the man, wi'er•
come with emotion; "ho has sent me to
take care of you."
You should have seen hiS eyes, flash,
and the smile of triumph break over
face as he said : -
"Mother never told me a lie, sir; but
you have been so long on the way."
What a lesson, of truth !.and how
this incident shows the effect of never
deceiving children With tales. •
FOaTY-EraLcr nouns IN A DAY.—
"Wo propose now to shOw," says the
Scientific American ,
'"that Monday, or
any other week clay, is forty-eight
hours long; wo mean that, during the
whole of forty eight hours, Monday is
on the earth some whore to be found.
The Monday of this city is; of course,
twenty-four hours long, but, before
and after our Monday there is Monday
in seine other quarter. When Monday
begins in New York there have been
three hours of Monday in London, and
for throe hours after our Monday ends
there will be Monday in San Francis
co. Thu 4, between theso places Mon
day lasts eighteen hours. Now, if thi
daily line were at one antipodes, Mon
clay would begin tiler!) twelve hours
before ours,and end twelve hours after
ours. Thus, for the. space of forty
eight hours the earth is not rid of Mon
day..
The fact may be, illuitrated in
another way. Suppose we are at the
day lino. Monday begins there, and
in twenty-four hours, along Comes
Tuesday. But just west, [half an inch
if you please,] Monday began only an
instant before it ended cant of the lino.
The Monday oast of the lino is twenty
four hotirs long, and west of thp lino is
the same length, and, in all, Monday
lasts forty•eight hours!'

I looked at my neighbor with con
siderable curiosity. His face indica,
ted a man of not over thirty years—
a period at which men are still young,
but his hair was as white as fresh
fallen snow. One seldom /3008 eveik on
the heads of the oldest men, hair of
such immaculate whiteness. He sat
by my side in a car of the Groat. Wes,
tern Railroad, in. Canada, and 'was
looking out at the window. suddenly
turning his head he ea - ught me in the.
act of staring at him—a rudeness of
which I was ashamed. I was about to ,
say some Words of apology . , wheii .ho
quietly remarked : •
"Don't mention it,sir; I'm need to it."
The franknesi of this observation
pleased me, and in a very little while
we were conversing on terms of famil
iar acquaintanceship, and before long
he had told me the whole story.
"I was a soldier in the army of In-.
dia," said he, "and as is . often the ease

good liquor. One. day I, got : drunk
and was shut up in a blaek hole for it.
I slumped down upon the floor of the
dungeon, and I wasdroppinCoff to
sleep, when I felt a cold, slimy shape
crawling across my right hand as it
lay stretched out above my, head on
the floor. I knew at once that it was
a snake ! Of course my first impulse
was to draw away my hand, but know=.
ing if I did so the poisonous reptile.
would probably strike its fangs, into
me, I lay stili with my- heart beating
in my breast like a `trip harainer. Of
course my fright sobered me instantly,
I realized all my peril in its fullest ex,
tent. 0, how I lamented the hour that
I had touched liquor , !.lnc every glass
of liquor they say there is a serpent.;
but it doeenot come to everybody in
the shape it came to me: With a slow;
undulating motion the reptile dragged
its carcass , across my face, inch by
inch, and crept down over my breast,
and thrust its head inside my jacket.
As I felt the hideous scraping of the
slimy body over my cheeks it was on
ly,by the most tremendous effort that
I succeeded in restraining myself from .
yelling loudly with mingled terror and
disgust. At last I felt.the tail wrig
gling down.towards my chin; but im
-agine what I felt at heart, it you can
imagine it, as I realized that the
dreadful creature had coiled itself up
.under my jacket . as flay and had seem
ingly gone to sleep, for it intS' still as
death.. Evidently it had no idea that
I WAS a human creature;
if it had it
would not have acted in this mannet`,.
All snakes are cowardly, and , they
will not approach a man unless to
strike him in self defense. Three hours

bosom, and each minute was like an
hour to me—like . a year ! I seemed to
have lived a life time in that brief
space. Every incident of my life pass.,
ed across my mind in rapid succes
sion,as they say is the case with drown
ing mon. I thought of my mother,
away in old England; my happy home
by the borders of the Avon ; my Mary,
the girl I loved, and never expected
to see them more. For no matter how
long I bore this, I felt that it *would
end in death at last. I lay as rigid as a
corpse, scarcely daring even to breathe,
and all the time my breast was grow

lay against it, with nothing but a thin
cotton shirt between my skin and its.
I knew if I stirred, it would strike ;
but I felt I could not bear this much
longer. If I succeeded in lying still
until the guard came, I expected that
his opening the door and coming in
would be my death warrant all the
same; for no doubt the reptile wonld
see that I was a man, as soon as the
light should be let in at the door. At
last • 1 heard footsteps approaching.
There was a rattling in the lock. It
was the guard. He opened the door.
The snake—a cobra di capello I no'
saw—darted up its huge hooded head,
with the hideous ringsaround its eyes,'
