MADDENING MECHANISM OF THOUGHT.
Our brains are seventy-year clocks.
The Angel of Life winds them up once
t'or all, then closes the case and gives the
key into the hand of the Angel of the
Resurrection. Tic-tac! tic-tae! go the
whe e ls of thought; our will cannot stop
ttein: they cannot stop themselves; sleep
cannot still them; madness only makes
them go faster; death alone can break
into the case, and seizing the ever
swiugi'g pendulum, which we call the
heart, silence at last the clicking of the
terrible escapement we have carried so
long beneath our wrinkling foreheads. If
we could only get at them, as we lie on
our pillows and count the dead beats of
thought after thought and image after
image jarring throngh the overtired
organ! Will nobody block the wheels,
uncouple the pinion, cut the string that
holds these weights, blow up the infernal
machine with gunpowder? What a pas
sion comes over us sometimes for silence
and rest—that this dreadful mechanism,
unwinding the endless tapestry of time,
embroidered with spectral figures of life
and death, could have but one brief holi
day? Who can wonder that men awing
themselves off from beams in hempen
lassoes?—that they jump off from para
pets into 'he swift and gurgling waters
beneath?—that they take council of the
frrim fiend who has but to utter his own
peremptory monosyllable, and the restless
machine is shivered as a case that is
dashed upon a marble floor? Under that
building which we pass every day there
are strong dungeons, where neither hook,
nor bar, nor bed cord, nor drinking vessel
from which a snap fragment may be shat
tered, shall by any chance be seen. There
is nothing for it, when the brain is on fire
with the whirling of its wheels, but to
spring against the wall and silence them
with one crash. Ali, they remembered
that—the kind city fathers--are nicely
padded, so that one can take such
exercise as he likes without dama
ging himself. If anybody would really
contrive some kind of a lever that one
could thrust in among the works of this
horrid automaton and chick them, or
alter their rate of going, what would the
world give for the discovery? Men are
very apt to try to get at Ow machine by
some indirect system or other. They clap
on the brakes by means of opium, they
change the maddening monotony of the
rythm by means of fermented liquors. It
is because the brain is locked up and we
cannot touch its movements directly, that
we thrust these coarse tools in through
any crevice by which they will reach the
interior, alter its rate of going for a while,
and at last spoil the machine.--0/irer
- Wendell Holmes.
THE FASHIONS.
Hiram Green, the humorous contributor
of the Troy Budget, thus takes oil the
fashions:
"Whoops is discarded and cut off with
a shillin, like the prodigal sons who roll
em in the parks. It is a safe bet to say
that hoops has gone back to their legiti
mate okupashun of embrasin the form of
crth's fairest flowers.
"In gentlemans shoes gimlet holes have
been worn poorty extensively in the toes.
These, we suppose, is vents to carry off
the bad air.
"Waterfalls, owin to the late freshets,
haz riz a good eel. It takes now about a
4-yeers ofl6 canawl hosses tails to supply
fust class bells with this article of lied
geer. Ladies, to balance their waterfalls,
are sometimes forst to stoop forword.
This produces the grisbun bend.
"Steal trimmins haint so fashionable as
they used to be with the wimmin fokes,
but amongst the men, if the newspapers
don't lie, it is gettin to be adopted pooty
lively. Unlike any other fashion, draw
backs seem to give the steal fashion a
hist. Especially is this the case among
the fashionables in the New York Custom
House.
"Men's trowsers are worn 1-16 of an
inch longer in the limbs, and cotes about
the same distance shorter than they were
worn last year. Every fashionable young
man possesses his own private spile driver
with which to force his fragile form into
trowsers, and a patent jack-screw to raise
his habeas corpus up under the abbrevi
ated extremity of his best cote.
"The lastest stile of neck tize is worn
with a not tied under the left ear. These
are not generally worn as yet, but I cood
name a few of my ackquaintances whood
look `gallus' Brest in this stile. The buty
of them is that a person will never ware
any other as long as he lives. They are
becomin with a black cap drawn pooty
well down over the eyes, to give a feller a
bully appearants."
MRS. STANTON in her .ReroltiVon, hits
the mark squarely when she says "This
wholesale shooting of wive's paramours
should be stopped. If Gens. Sickles and
Cole had been sentenced to pass the re
mainder of their days in Sing Sing, as
they should have been, McFarland would
never have desired the same kind of noto
riety. Suppose the women should decide
to shoot their husbands' mistresses, what
a wholesale slaughter •of innocents we
should have ! I wonder how long justice
would halt in our courts in their case, and
how long public sentiment would sustain
such action ?"
VIE publication of a humorous satirical
paper, after the style of the London
Punch will soon be commenced in New
York. The best talent in the country will
write for the newspaper, and it will be
profusely illustrated.
BRAIN-WORKERS AND SUSOLE-WORK-
The I'hrouilogie«l Jou riot protests
against the incorrect idea that those who
gain a livelihood by the exerele of their
minds, are less entitled to the / honorable
appellatio 1 of laborers, than those who
employ chiefly their arms :
It is thought by some people especial
ly those who have but little edut Ltion, and
are obliged to work at some laborious call
ing, that all the professions are very easy;
and they often say that the lawyer, the
minister, the teacher, the physician, earn
their money with little or no lahor: Such
persons seem to think that the man who
does not raise a bushel bT corn, make a
horse-shoe, or work trees up into cord
wood or lumber, is Inot a producer, and
therefore is a pensioner upon the bounty
and leniency of the world. We hold that
the thinker, the brain laborer, end especi
ally the teacher who instructs the young
in all that pertains to literature and sci
ence, is as really a producer io he who
uses his knowledge toward the accomplish
ment of businws purposes. The teacher
who instructs the pupil how to keep ac
counts, and qualifies him for commerce,
banking and other business, contributes
as essentially to the acquisition of proper
ty as he does who keeps the accounts,
plans the business, and works out the re
sult. One might say that the grindt,tone
is not a producer because it never cuts
down trees, or hews timber, or mows
grass, or planes boards ; but the axe the
scythe and the plane are useless without
the sharp edge which the grimistone im
parts. So the human mind sent out into
lite without the sharpening influence of
education, cannot hew its way to success
with facility. Let the teacher then feel
that he is the main spoke in the wheel of
the world's success, and while doing his
duty faithfully and nobly, let him stand
erect as one of the world's noblemen."
