AN INTERESTING ESSAY,
Which ermbokrahoaldread,on " TAe.idayea.
lion of Nature to the &whim t lankued,"
delirezed before the Towanda Ly ceum, by .
• Gen. PAITOIL
After complimenting the eSsays
previonsli delivered by Mi. Bus r,
Miss Lvoir, and Mr. Eutorr, and re
ferring to the erroneous riews_oi the
ancients concerning the form andmo
tion of the earth, he pioceeds ris fol.
At the head of the animal kingdOm
stands Man, in the image of his Cris'.
tor, "monarch of all , he surveys ";
with dominion over all the creatures
and products of the earthi, and 'en
dowed with fi ve wonderful phySical
senses of seeing; hearing, 'smelling,
tasting and feeling; and each of them
an avenue of pleasure and pre - fit
f to
' - - -
If confined, however, to these alone,
he would be kept down to the level
of the brutes; but his Creator, with
paternal kindness; has lavoied and
exalted him above every other living
Creature, and made everything' else,
on earth, subservient tolls will and
tributary to his power and pleasure;
by stiperadding to his five animal
senses, the extraordinary faculty of
reason, with its auxiliary powers 'of
speech: so thatlie has not only all
-the sources ho could desire, of physi
cal, but of mental enjoyment also.
In his physical formation, his
breathing apparatus - , his alimentary,
digestive and other organs, are won
derfully eonatineted,.and admirably
adapted to the performance of the
functiims assigned to each; and the
mechanism of the whole machinery,
is of the nicest, most intricate, com
plex and delicate character--supply
mg itself, as it were, with its own oil,
and fuel, which keeps it in active, un
ceasing motion- for nearly a century',
without repair.
,In the poetic language of. Doctor
Wutto: 1`
"Our life contains a thousand opting,;
If ono dies—it is gone:
Strange that'a harp, of a thousand strings,
Should keep in tune so long."
Through hi:4 some string, with
the aid of two little orbs, placed be--
neath his forehead; of singular and
delicate constriction; and with self
supplyirig lachrymal humidity, to
keep them bright and dear, he can
see over an area of millions of acres;
and, through the etherial world, to a
distance of millions of miles. He can
see the twinkling stars in the firma
ment, hung out from the curtain of
night, as lamps to his feet—and each
of them a world in itself. He can
see the silvery Moon presiding im the
queen of night, and the golden Sun
as the monarch of day. He can lee
our mother Earth clad in her wintry
garments of snow—in her spring robe
of flowers—in her- summer mantle of
green • and, in her autumnal huitiuct
tic- dr ess, beautifully variegated by
the frosts of , - - , '
Through his organ of hearing, he
can hear every variety of sound, and
locate the spot from whence it pro
ceeds. He can awake to the sound
of alarm, or listen, with rapturous de
light, to the sweet sounds of enchant
ing harmony; whether imparted .by
nature'scharming vocalists, or by in
struments of art that discourse to him
notes of sweet concord:` rough it
he can tell the loud rumb li ng of thun-:
der, athwart the , skies, from ,the rat
tling of a wagon on our streets-Lthe
sharp crack of lightning from the pu
ny explosion of a pistol—the roar of
the lion from the braying of an ass--
the' loud hoirf of ' the wolf ( froni the
squeaking yelp of the little prairie
dog—the cry of the panther from the
mewing of a cat—the scream of the
eagle from the whistle of a quail--;
the gobbling of the strutting turkey

litical services of Gio. Cass: In

love; the disinterested efforts of his
life to a party' whith has taken good

than cheap complimenbi in return.
His rival has held many a post of hon
or and profit, conferred upon him by
the DeinoFiwy, but there has always
been nothing to give the to the dis

more than any other living man to

HOW TO_BE__HAEDI3OIO.
Most people Ince to be handsome.
Nobody denies the mater power any
person may have who has a good face
and who attracts you by good looks
even before a word has been Token.
And we see all sorts of devices in men
and women to improve their looks—
paints and washes and all kinds of
cosmetics, Including a plentiful an
nointing with dirty hair oil.
Now, not every one can have good
featurea They are as God . made
them.; but almost any one can look
well with good health. It is . hard to
give rules in t very short space, but
in brief these will do :
Beep clean—wash freely and uni-
Tersally with. :cold water. All the
- wants is leave to act freely and
'it will take care of itself. Its thous
ands of air holes must not be plugged
up.'
Eat regularly and simply. The
stomach can no more work all the
time night and day, than a horse, it
must have regular rest.
Good teetl are a help to goo '-
links. Brush them with a soft brush,
especially at night. Go to bed with
.teeth dean. nOf course to have white
teeth it is needful toilet tobacco a:-
lone. Every woman knows that.—
Any powder or wash ,for the teeth
should be very simple. Acids may
whiten the teeth, but they take off
the enamel and injure them. .
Sleep in a cool room, in pure air.
But more than all - in order look
well--wake up the mind and soul
When the -mind is awake, the dull,'
sleepy look pasves away from the
eyes, _we do not know that the brain
expinds but it seems to. • Think,read
—hot trashy 'novels, but books , that
have something in them. Talk with
people who know .something; hear
lectures and learn 'by them.
This is one good of preaching. A
man thinks and works and tells the
result. And if t we listen an hear and
understand, the mind and soul are a- -
Wakened; If. the 'spiritual nature is
. aroused so much the better.
We have seen a plain face glorified
by the love of God and man which
shone through it.
- Let us grow_ handsome.
Men say they cannot afford books
r and sometimes , they don't even pay
for their newspaper. In that case it
does them little good—they must
feel ad mean Whilelhey are reading
- But men can'afford what they
'ally chamie. If all - the money spent
in self indulgence—in hurtful incltd-
Mee—littB spent in books and self
;improvement, wo would see a change.
~ 1*34 would grow handsome, and wo
tmen;.too. The soolAvould shine out
`through the eyes. We are not meant
to be mere animals.
Let na'have books and read them,
and lectures and hear them, and heed
them.' • . •

Were addressed.
Many foreign letters are not de
livered on 'account4 insufficient ad
dresses. The geographical-client of
the United-States and Territories be
ing asi , yet unsettled, and the constant
arrival of emigrants 'in search of
honies in remote regiOns, and the
continual, changing of places of abode
in a thinly settled country operate to
increase the difficulty in the • delivery
of foreign letters, bearing only the
name, and addressed " United Stales."
'Many are addressed without any des-,
tination being attached, other are
not stamped, and a great many are
stamped with United States internal
revenue stamps. From ap il e of let
ters are selected the fo ll oynng addres
ses,_ some o f which betray ignorance,
but the majority gross carelessness :
"Mister Makarti, Rare of Mister
ifuldoon, forninst the Protestant
Church, New York." " James Prince,
'ESq., California." " Harry C. Everzer,
treasurer of the RTeAsior, base ball
club, Illinois,! M. Favie, Rue &Fre

Philadelphia." " Mikal Kelly, hods
man, Sins:lie" "Rev. Edward Cart
wright, England " Mr. Edgar Smith"
.(no city or Sinasgiven). "To the
members of Congress from Ohio."
Many others might be given, but the
above are fair specimens. In a small
room 'adjoining the main office is con
tained a large collection of valuables
of all kinds, which have Been acen
mulating for some time. During the
war a large number of soldiers' pho
tographs were received = the
mails, all of which have bee • -
ed in portfolio form. Among =
number on hand, nearly ev day
some are recognized and returned to
those having upon them.
Among the lilt of valuables is a
package of cocoons and raw silk,
which , was . mailed from San Francis
co fo Paris,' andsent to the Dead Let
ter Office on mount of the non-pay
ment of postage, the person to whom
the package was addressed refusing
to pay the same. A. great variety of
other articles are also to be seen, con
sisting of embrotypes pictures, teas,
coffee, soap, apparel of all kinds, dolls,
jewelry, and, in fact, ahnost, every
thing for which the mails are consid
ered a safe means for transmission.
Every year or twoa sale of niecello
-mous articles of value,' for %licit no
owners can be lound, is advertiaed in
the pnblic'prints, . and the announce
ments invariably attract large throngs
of purchasers, some of whom hepelto
make good bargains, While - Others de
sire to secure only curiosities. The
prices received are generally fsir,and!
in some instances the bidding is
brisk on certain articles which. are
valuable only as curiosities or relics.
Many- of the articles, especially of
clothing, stationaiy,perfumery, jewel
ry, ' &c., are- really valtuible and
