"It Can't be Helped."
"Can't he helped," is one of the thousand
convenient phrases with which men cheat and
deceive themselves. It is . one in which the
helpless and the idle take refuge as their_last
and only comfort ?—it can't he helped 1• Your
energetic man is for helping everything. - If
he sees an evil, and clearly discerns its cause,
he is fir taking steps forth With to remove it.
Ile busies himself with ways and means, de
vises practical plans and methodS, and will
not let the world rest until he has done some
thins in a remedial way. The indolent man
spares himself all this trouble. Ile will not.
Ile . sits with his arms folded. and is ready.
with his unvarying, observation. "It can't
be helped !" a, much as to say—"lf it is it
()light to be, and we need not bestir ourselves
toalter it." Wash your face, you dirty little
school boy, you are vile and repulsive, and
vicious, by reason of your neglect of cleanli
ness, "It can't- be helped !" Educate your
children, train them up in virtuous habits,
teach them to be industrious, obedient, frugal
and thoughtful, you thoughtless communities ;
lb: they are now growing up vicious, ignorant,
and careless, a source of future peril to-the
Lion. "It can't be helped !" But it can be
helped. Every evil can be abated, every
nuisance got rid of, every abomination swept
away ; though this will never be done by the
—can't be helped" people. Matt is not help
less, but can both help himself and help others.
Ile can act individually and unitedly against
wrong and evil. Ile has the power to abate
and eventually uproot them. But, alas ! the
greatest obstacle of all in the way of such
beneficial action is the feeling and disposition
out, of which arises the miserable, puling,
ejaculation of "It can't be helped !"
STRANGE MEANS FOR. TILE RECOVERY OF A
DROWNED MAN.—The first mate of the British
ship Ifircat/e vi as drowned at Panama on the
night of the 2nth of July, while attempting to
get on board his ship. The body had not been
recovered at the latest aril:ices. s ‘ln the ac
count of the search for it the Panama Star re
cords the followinz siirrular incident:—"The
_remark was made by SOIIIC one that the most
probable way of finding him was 'to bait a
____book___witb a piece aEpofk and tbmw it over
board.' Dila, whether accidentally or inten
tionally, was done from the Pacific :Mail steam
ship Sonora, and during the morning a shark
took the bait, was hauled on hoard, and when
cut open, much to the astonishment of all, in
the monster's stornach was found - half a pig.
with the right arm of the missing man, with
part of the , shirt sleeve still remaining, by which
it was easily identiftetUtrbc that of the mate.
The arm appeared as though the flesh had been
cut through to the bone, about midway be
-----tween-the elbow and shoulder, and there the
bone was forcibly torn from the shoulder joint,
leaving the upper half quite bare."

A Story for Our Own Times
A venerable Hollander, after having occupied
all the offices of one of the principal cities of the
republic with great honor. and having amassed
a large fortune in the most unexceptionable
manner. finally formed the resolution of going
to terminate his days tranquilly at his country
scat. Ent, before retiring, he wished to take
leave of his friends and count-coons, and :record
inglv invited them all to a feat at his house.
The guests who expected a.most sumptuous
ref :est. - were much surprised, on entering the
eating roonr; to see there a long oaken table,
hardly covered witry a coarse blue cloth. On
-being seated, they wet' served on wooden
plates, with salted herrings, rye bread and -hu
Ter, with some cheese and, curdled milk. Wood
en vases filled with sinall beer, - were passed
round fur the guests to serve themselves. - The
extreme oddity of the old t*entleman caused se
. cret mnrtnet ins among the company but out
of respect to his age and wealth. instead of
showing diScontrAt, they pretended to relish
their frugal fare : and some of them compli
mented him upon the cordiality of those good
old times which he bad brought to remem
brance. The old man . --who was not duped by
this feigned satisfaetion—did not wish to carry
the joke further, but, at a given signal which,
he gave. some servants habited as country
women entered, bringing the second service.
A white cloth succeeded the brown one, and
some pewter Plates succeeded the wooden_ ones
Instead of rye bread. herring and cheese, they
were served with good brown bread, fresh beef.
boiled fish, and strong beer. At this unexpect
ed change, the secret murmers ceased ; and po
lite invitations on the part of the old man be
.came 'n►ore pressing, and the guests ate with
better appetite. Hardly hail they time to, taste
this, the second service, when they saw a but
ler enter, followed by half a dozen servants in
brilliant livery, bringing the third. A superb
table of mahogony, covered with a beautiful
flowered cloth, replaced the ad oaken one. A
sideboard was immediately covered With the
richest plane and the most curious china, and
the sight of profusion of .rare and exquisite
meats. The most, delicious wines were freely
,passed around. while a melodious concert was
heard ,inr an adjoining room. Toasts_ were
drank, and all were merry. But the good old
man, perceiving that his presence hindered the
guests from giving themselves up to their full
joy, nose and addressed them thus
"I give you thanks, ladies and gentlemen,
- for the favor which you have granted me.--ft
is time I should retire mySelf, and leave you to
your liberty. But before the ball commences,
which 1 have ordered to he prepared fur those
who love the dance, permit me to - acquaint you
with the design I proposed
_to myself in invit
ing you to a repast, which appear , d so odd.—,
I have wished to give you an idea of our. Re
public. Out ancestors rose to their state, and
ac q uired liberty, riches and power•, by living
in the frugal manner which you Sow in - the
first service. Our fathers preserved thesegrea t
blessings only by living in the simple manner
of which the second service has retraced an im
age. IT It is Permitted to an old man who is
about to leave you, and who tenderly ktv..s
year, to•spe:ik clearly what he thinks, I must
say. I fear that the extravagant profusion which
you may have remarked in the last service, and
which is the present style of liviug, Will-de
prive us of more than our ancestors have ac
quired by the sweat of their brows, and our
fathers have t►anstnitted to us by their indus
try and wise administration."
A DA Nny AND UN T171:11" KY.—Justice 'Mar
shall was in the habit of going to market him
self, and -carrying home his purchases. Fre
quently he would he see - n - at sunrise, with
poultry in one hand and vegetables in the
other. On one of these occasions, a fashiona
ble yomig man front the north, who had re
moved to Itichniond, was swearing violently
because he could find no one to carry home
his turkey. Marshall stefiped up and asked
him where he lived. and said. on being told—
" That's on my way, and I will take it fur
you."
When he came to the house the young man
nquired : shall I pay you ?"
. "0, nothing„" said the Chief Justice; "it was
on my way and no trouble."
"Who is that polite old man who brought
home my turkey ?" inquired this man of a by
stander.
"'flint," replied he. "is John Marshall,
Chief Justice_or the United States,''
"Why did he bring home my turkey ?"
asked he.
‘To give you a severe reprimand and teach
yon to attend to your own business," was the
reply.
True genuine greatness never feels above
doing anything that is useful, but especially,
the truly great man will never feel above help
ing himself.

The 'Zan -Monkey in Brazil.
The captain of the French nhooner Adrienne,
who last summer was stationed at Pernambu
co, Braisil, gives the following sketch of a tame
monke`• :
"A short time ago dined at a Bra - zilian
merchant's. The conversation turned upon
the well tittered chimpanze of Mr..Vanneek
's.
a creole gentienian, w hose slave had hi ought
him the monkey, which lie had caught in the
woods. Every one praiscit the acemnplished
anima!---giving :Ai:counts of its talents so Won-
derful .that 1 could not help expre:,sing some
incredulity. My host smiled—saying that I
was not the first who would not believe in
these results of animal, education until he liad
seen with his own eye:4.-11e therefore pro
posed to me to call with him on Mr. Vanneek.
I gladly consumed, and on the lbllowing
morning we ,set out. -The house of the creole
lies on the road to Olinda, about an hour's ride
from town. We proepedvd along sillena
hedges of,eactus shaded by banmas and pall'
trees, and at length observed its churl/ling villa
A negro received us at the entrance awl took
ns to the parlor—hastening to tell his waster u
our visit,.
The first object ivitich caught our attention
was the monkey"seated on a stool and sewing
with great industry. Much struck. I watched
hint attentively, white he, not paying, any at
tention
. to us, proceeded witTi'llis-Work. The
door opened :Mr, Vaimeck, reclining - on an
easy chair-, was wheeled 9n.- 7 -Though his legs
are paralyzed he seemed blight and cheerful,
and welcomed us moat kindly„ The monkey
went on sewing with great zeal.
I could not refrain from exclaiming. ''llow
wonderful !" for the manner and process of the
animal were those of a practical tailor. lie
was sewing a pair of striped pantaloous, the
narrow shape of which showed that they were
-intended for himself.
An old negro now appeared—announcing
31adame Jasinin, whom Mr.. Vanne:k intro
duced as his neighbor. Madame Jasinin was
accompanied by her little daughter, a girl of
twelve years, who imniednifely ran to the
monkey—greeting hinras an old friend begin
ning to prattle with him. —Jack furtively
peepwl at , his master ; but as Mr. Vanneek's
glance was stern, the tailor went on sewing.
Suddenly his thread broke ; and he put the
end in his mouth, smoothed it- with his left"
paw, and threaded the needle again. Mr. Van
neck then turned to hint, and speaking , in the
same calth Lone in.which he had conversed with
us, said :
‘‘Jack, your work put aside and sweep the
floor."
Jack hurried to the adjoining room and came
back without delay, with a broom in his paw,
and swept and dusted like a clean housemaid.
I could not perfectly make out his size, as he
always walked upright, not on his four paws.
Ile was about three feet high, but stooped a
little. lie. was clad in linen pantalcums,
colored shirt, a jacket, and red neckerchief.
At another hint from, his master, Jack went
and brought several glasses of lemonade on a
tray. Ile first presented the tray to Madame
*Jastoin and her daughter, then to us, likt!.
well.bre - a footman. When I had emptied my
glass he hastened to relieve me from it — ln a.
nog it back on the tray. Mr. Vanneck took
out his watch, and showed it to the monkey ;
it was just three. Jack went and brought a
cup of broth to his toaster, who remarked that
the monkey did not know the -movements of
the, o'at'h, but that he knew exactly,the poi
tion of _thehands when they pointed to three,.
and kept it in mind that it ryas then his mas
ter required his lunch. If -the watch was
shown to hint at any other hour he did not go
to fetch the broth : while if three o'clock was
past with-Fug the lunch being Called for, he got
fidgety and at last ran and brought it : in this
case he was always rewarded with some sugar
"Yon have no notion," said Mr. .Vanneck,
"how touch time and tronhlc, and especially
how much patience I have bestowed in the
training of tliis animal. Confined to-my chair,
however, 1 continued my task methodically.
Nothing was more difficult than to accustom
Jack to don his clothes ; he used to. take off
hisyantaloons again and again, until at last I

Aid them sewed to itn shirt. When lie tvarkT - :.
out with me he wears a straw hat, but never
without making fearful grimaces. Ile takes a

chief." The monkey drew it from my pocket
and handed it to toe. "Now show your room
to my guests," continued his inakter And he
opened a door at which lie stepped aside to let
us pass, and then followed himself. Every
thing was extremely tidy in the small room.
There was a bed with a matress, a table, some
chairs. drawers. and various toys : a gun hung
on the wall. The bell was rung : Jack went
and reappeared with his master, wheeling: l in
the chair. Meanwhile I had taken the gull
from tlic %rid!, Mr, Vanneck handed it to the
monkey, who fetched the Pdwder flask and
shot Img, and in the ‘vhole process of loathing
acquitted himself like a rifleman. I had al - -
ready seen so much that was astonishint-, that
hardly felt surprised at this feat. Jack e now
placed himself at the open window, took aim
uand discharged the grin, witimut being the least
.tattled by the report. lie then went through
the sword exercise with the Sarni: Atil.
It would he too lotig'to jot_„down all Mr.

appearance the very reverse of rogues. Three
confidants generally play the games, hot two
can 'do it. When they sec a person called by
them a. "Sucker," who appears to be a fit sub
ject to play upon, they learn his name. and
something abOut him. such as the place where
he came from, &c.. (they have various ways of
•doing this, one of which : is by searching .the

"Well. this is really a queer 'thing : I wonder.
what it can • be used for," and pressing it all
round. toThis apparent surprise, out he pushes
an interior plug. (that is, a plug within another
concealed plug.) With well assumed wonder
he says, "Alt', what is this?" and polls it. out
entirely. - unscrewing its lid.
."A nice little
box : well, now, this is ingenious : and it has
something in it, too." Ile then takes out a
piece of w bite paper, :-hows"Sucker" the empty

like aside to "Sticker," "I can stand this no

he to the afflicted safe loser, "I think 1 know

says "Roper,"." that is a:capital idea. I suppose
you have it made to hold something." "Oh.
yes, there is a box inside of it, and a paper in
its chamber now." "I don't believe that,"
says "Roper." (and aside to "Sucker" he
whispers. - I'll bet him no that piece of paper.")
"I'll bet there is no paper in it." "Ilow much
