UNCLE SAM'S ADDRESS TO HIS

johx r. Toixn, fcninn.J
Come Northern boys, nnd Southern boys,
And boys from Knst and West,
By friends. shike hmids, nnd go to work;
You've hud enough of rest.
You've voted Tor that enndidato
That each thuught test to rule the Slalo.
El
oetion's over now, my boys
The Provident selected
And liko him well, or liko him ill,
What udds, since ho'x elected ?
A President j-lmuld always bo
Tho choico of tho majority. .
You've bad n jolly time, my boys
Performed mhho wondrous fottsi
Ilavo carried lights, 011 stormy night.',
Tlirongb all the public streets ;
Yon'vo worked with all tho scholar's toil.
And greased your coat with "midnight oil."
And now to woik, to work, my boyj !
You'vo ha I enough of pluy j
And, as tho winter's coming 011,
Let's gather in the hay.
Nor eeafo our labors till the sun
Doth tell ui that our work is done.
What care 'yMi" who's president,
Or what care you who's king '!
You've got tho bono mid muscle, boys,
And all that sort of thinir.
The North and .South and Kust and West
Can buy half earth, and whip the rest!
Shake hands, my boy? ; forgive, forgot ;
All nngry'feclings smother.
Remember that your .ill my boys,
AndciKh ooai li n brother,
(tick to your stores, your workshops, farms,
And thus defy a "world in arms."
Then go to work, my honeH boys,
And prove your noble birth
By struggling- not nmong yourselves
But with tho sturdy earth,
AVhoso btsom doth more trensnro hold
Thnn politits a thousand fold.

THE BURCH DIVORCE CASE.
This caso which bus boon on li iul nt
Nnpiersrille, Illinois, for tho lust two
Nt k, 1ms attracted considerable alien-
tion throughout the country. The pur
ties on both bides nro very wealthy. Mrs.
Rurch is a niece of tho llor. Krastus Cor
ning, rreiident of tho New York Central
Kail Koad, wl.oso family connections
wield great inlluence, both in New York
nnd Illinois. Mr. Rurch is a wealthy
Rankor in Chic.igo, and, we believe a strict
member of tho l'resbytcriun church. The
parties havo been married about l.i years,
and nro tho parents of four children, the
youngest about three years of nge. In
18i7, Mr. Rurch came to the conclusion
that his wife was too intimate with a Mr.
Stewart, of Chicago; and so informed her.
She however claiming to bo innocent of
any such reproach. This, however, is tho
pretext in this trial for a divorce.
The trial of this case is another tlemi
onstration.tr society, in a twy wlt state
of refinement and civilization. Reicw we
publish two loiters which wc.ro given in
evidence ut the trial, which lo'l a story of
their own, What the lesult of the trial
will be, is hard to determine at this stage
of the C.laC.

Iniring tho reading of tliia loiter a pto
found silence prevailed in court, nnd the
sconce was most lleeting. After reading
the letter to Judgo Skinner, Judge l'iek
ens examined tho immaterial points. Jlu
ry Spaulding mul Fanny Rurch were rc
culled. Tho only point, elicited was tho
admission by tho ..hitler, on tho erons-exn
animation, that sho had told Mrs. Skin
noiShai she i.ever Lelicvod Mrs. Rureh
guilty till sho heard from her unclo
that she had confessed. The counbelof
tho complainant then closed tho case, nnd
offered to hand in tho confessions. Tho
counsel fo; tho defence objected, offering
j to produce evidence that tho signatures
been obtained by duress, coercion or
! hand. A long debato ensued till the close
; of Court. No (lecinion will bo made

Hints to Husbands.
Here is something which should be cut
out, preserved, and carefully read at least
oneo a week :
Never wish for dishes your mother pre
pared for you when n boy. There is
nothing of which a wife is moie jealous
than 11 mother-in-law's cookery; besides,
there is scareoly a doubt that tho very
dishes so much longed, would fail to
please yon now. When a boy everything
was relished with a boyish est ; out now
even your mother, noted for the cookery
of her old fashioned dishes, if you have
become accustomed to the more modern
styles, would bo ituiid faulty. Rut sup
pose sho was, und is no'v, a perfect house
keeper in all respects, is it kind and gen
tlemanly lo put your nicther, with her
years of experience, in competition w ith
your young nnd inexperienced w il'e ? You
must bear and forbear, as very likely your
father did beforo you, or you will never
have a housekeeper m your wife.
Do you not remember, if you have been
married a few year?, many times to have
found your dinner spoiled, wife out of
tune, nml yourself seriously nnnoyed
j wnen )'ou "-omU; without injury to busi
ness, or oven trespassing on Iho laws of
courtesy, have been punctual to tho mo
ment ? And again, when for important
reasons, yon desirj tho dinner prompt,
you have found it far from ready, have
you not found fault, und been lenroachod
with such want of regularity yourself as to
makoit impossible to keep up a proper
system in tho family.
If not, you lire a pattern husband, whoso
example H would bo well tor many to copy
If your wife has no servants, or not a suf
ficient number to do tho work of tho fam
ily, her timo is its precious s youis, and
tho moments wanted for you, must be
made up by extra exertion thioughout
the diy, or taken from tho hours neccssa
ry for repose nt night. You little think
ot this, or your praetico would b diller-.

Description of a Boa Constrictor.
The fo'lowirg is tho last piece of shows
nun eloquence : .
"Gentlemen: Thia u the celobrntod
boa constrictor, tho finest, largest, longest,
strongest, and prettiest animal of its spec
ies in this country, llo was caught in
South Africa (as ho lay torpid after swal
lowing t'o oxen nnd a drova of sheep,) in
a wire net, his enpturo ntibrding a beauti
ful illustration of sucsosful wire pulling.
It was supposed that the eand whero ho
was found, was hot enough (o boil eggs,
and that liis skin w:;s nt least ''well done"
there is proved by its highly finished up
penrance. His color is supposed to ooiu
bine all tho buss that ever hissed or bit,
from tho "old serpent" t' a conger eel.
His si.j is variable, a.j liko most other ob
jects in nature, he expands with heat and
contracts with cold. For every riao of
fivo degrees in tho thermometer, ho gets
a foot of longitude. In his nutivo Bands
he's a hundred and fifty feet long. 'J'ho
warm season of our own country stretch
him twenty live feet. Last January when
tho thermomctes full to sixteen degrees,
he shrank into nich trilling dimensions ns,
to bo invisible through a microscope. Ilk
present length you can feu for yourselves.
His tm pern mo principles aro of tho
Goughest kind. Ho is a dozen cold water
societies rolled into one. His drink nt his
present dimensions ii three gdlons of
w tor icr wp.k; li s feed -threo moro
gallons. He has great natural talon t for
politics which ho shows by changing his
ro.it four times a year. Trice of aduiis

are busy with toys j m youth with pleas
ure; in inanhoad with action; and so
may dispenso with tho delights of rending
with little consciousness of1 loss. Rut nt
hist when wo nre too wise lo bo charmed
with baubble8 ; too earnest to bo tickled
with straws ; too obi to enjoy tho pleas
ures of sense ; loo fond of repose to cti
duro tho noise of tho bustling world ; then
it is that books nro felt to lie tho truest
and most agreeable of friends , compan
ions wdio neither contradict us with nrro.
gance, insult us with laKl manners, nor
lovo us with prolixity. Tor wo can chers
ish tho entertaining, r eject tho dull, and
snub tho long-winded without giving
pain. How pleasant when lifo is in tho
"senr and yellow leaf,"
"To turn again our earlier volumes o'er,
And love them then, bocauso wo'yc lovod
beforo ;
And wily bless tho waning hour that
brings
A will to lean oneo troro on single things;
If this bo weakness, welcomo life's do

If this bo second childhood, bo it mine! "
