Oh! let the soul its sluiuliers bre'nU
Arou.e its seimes, and awako
To see how soon
Life, iii itx ploriis, jrlides away.
And the stern footsteps of dec:iy
C'oues stc.ilii.j- on.
And while wo view the rolling tide,
lluwu nliieh O'lr f.owitij minutes glide
A way eo find.
Lot us the prcfciil hour employ,
And deem eueb future dreutu a joy
Aindy piil.
I.- t no vnin ln.j.e deceive the mind,
Nu buppier let uu hope lo lind
To morrow linin to-diiy ;
Our (.'il'lui dreae-.s of ywre were height,
Like them the preeent eUnll delight
Like thviu dueay.
Our liven like lmsteninx streams must he
That into ono oiif-iillinx sea
Are doomid to lull
The sen of hearh, wliunc wavrs roll on
O ur kin and kinjc d-ini, cruwu aud throne,
And swallows all.
Alike the river's lordly tide,
Alike lite huiulile rivulet's glide,
Te flint end wave I
Ileatli levels poverty aud pride,
And rh-h and poor le'p side ly fide

Our birth is but a starting place;
Lii'e is the running ot the ruoc,
Aud dealli Ibe goal :
There all our glittering toys are brought
T uat pt'h alone, ot nil unnuuht,

Pee, then, l;ow poor and little worth
Are nil those glittering toys of earth
Ttult lure u here;
Ilrejms of a sic. p th.vt death must break
Ala.! Iiefure it bids us wake,
We disappear.
Iiong ere tho dump of earth ran blight,
The olieeh's purr glow of red and while
Ha pus.o'd away ;
Youth siuikd, and all wns heavenly faro
Ago came, and laid his finger then.
And a here are they ?
Where is the strength that spurned decay.

Senator Ferry and Political Disa

recent speech delivered by Mr. Ferry
a Unit' d States Senator Iroin Con-
ncclicul in reply to mo prosenpr.vc
policy urged by tlio vindictive 51or
I ton lie) in Indiana :
Iiul, says the Senntorftom Indiana,
history is against tbo Senutor from
Connecticut ; history shows that you
can do dotliiii; by conciliating a van
(iiished Jieojile. Does it sir ? W hat
liltle 1 know of statesmanship I have
leurn.d Irom history. 1 believe it to
ho God's handw riling on the faco ot
this earth of ours ; and what does il
tell lis? In tbo first place what does
international luw tell us is tho first
duty of the victor und tbo solo right
yes sir, the right of the vanquished ?
Clemency. What does history t -ach
us of the effect uf disabilities und test
acts in other countries with whose
story we uro familiar? Why, sir, we
ought all lo be fuiniliur willi 1'iat old
Eit.'lislt slorv. It baa como down to
I na reoin tin. I ooks of our boyhood.
What lias England gained by five
hundred years of disabilities and lest-
oaths for tho people of Ireland ? Has
it created or raiscil up llicro u loyal
gencniliun lovingthe crown und ready
to rail- around Hie union jacK f .mi,
sir. Ireland tells the story to-day of
the effect of disabilities and test oaths.
What havo they dono for England
herself ? They were tried idler the
revolution of lCf-'8. Go look at the
statute-book ol the reign of W illiam
111. On every other page is a disabil
ity bill or a test act ; und tho throne
of William and Anno and tho Georges
tottert J year by year i:iou its foun
dation Hit- two generations, and twice
the eruption broke forth in 1715 and
174". Cannot wo learn something
from history ?
W hat did Austria make Ly tier
pains and penalties and disabilities in
Hungary'. Nothing but smothered
rebellion; nothing ;Ut outbreaking
revolution. At last she gave Hunga
ry a tree Constitution ami ireo icpro-
seiilalioii. and peace l'eii'ns throti'di
out the land. 1 might go on, sir, but
such u inonalioua pui-vcndon of liieto
i.i s "'
tlio senator
from Indiana seems lo mo to need no
fill liter I'clutation.
On account of these historical cita
lions, and tho advocacy of a more pa-
cifiu policy than ilia, adopted by the
prosciipliotiists, Senator Ferry has
been denounced in unmeasured terms

That is the fact, and I wish that

general disorder and confusion.

Attriuutes or Women. I havo ob
served among all nations, that the
women ornament themselves more
than tho nun ; that w herever found,
they are the same kind, civil, obliging,
huiiiuno, lender beings; that they are
ever inclined lo bo gay and cheerlul,
timorous and modest. They do uot
lie-itate, like men, to perform u hos
pitable or generous uclion ; nor
haughty, nor arrogant, nor stiprrcil-
liotis, but full of courtesy, aud fond of

nious; more liable In general lo err

Cost or LoAFr.msM. Docs the
young man who persists in being a
loafer ever, reflect how much less it
would ens l to bo a decent, respectable
man! Docs ho imagine thai loafer
ism is more economic! than gentili
ty? Anybody can bo a gentleman,
if ho chooses to he, Jjilhout much
cost, but it is mighty cxpeiisivo being
a loafer. It costs time, in tho first
place days, weeks, months, of il
in fact, about all the time ho has, lor
no man can be a first-class loafer with
out devoting nearly his entire alien
lion to it. The occupation, well fol
lowed, hardly affords time tor eating,
sleeping, dri wo had utmost said
drinking, but on reflection, wo will
except that. Tbe loafer finds timo to
drink when invited. It costs friends.
