From Mr. Helpk’s.lateat work, “Rcalmah,” we escape finally with the fol lowing bopty »'.<<s '' A : ;f i, 4 > -4No Tjme for.lt.— That seems to be the thing that we all fail to consider sufficiently in this brief life of ours. Now, if we had the length of life that thd patriarchs enjoyed —after we bad learnt eTerytbing that was to be learnt, and had made a few aiscoreries of our own, and bad arranged all our affairs most comfortably, there,, would then.be time, to spare for carding bn> a; good, wholesome feud with any or our neighbors, and for an noying the world generally by vexatious di plomacy and long wars. One could then afford to spend a trifle of time, say twenty or thirty years of our lives, in pleasures of this kind. But with our present short period of existence, there is no time for indulging in these luxuries of mischief. —There is no greater nonsense talked about anything: than about Inconsistency. The truth is, no man ever is inconsistent His ut terances are inconsistent; but, did ,we know mil about him, and about the circumstances which he has to encounter, we should not speak of the man as inconsistent . A curious illustration of what I mean may be given in this way: There shall be a father and a son advoca ting opposite views. The world says, How unlike are these two men! Whereas the op position of their views shows, perhaps, the similarity of their characters. If they agreed now, their ages and their experience of life being so. different, it .would be a proof of great dissimilarity of character. —When the tonnst goes over some old castle or palace, and his attention is arrested by horrible dungeons, tortnro-chambers, and oubliettes, he wonders how, in former days, the inhabitants of that castle or palace could have slept comfortably, or. revelleJ, or made love, having cognizance all the time of the horrors that were beneath them. But there is a similar thing everywhere: to wit: Bel gravia and Bethnal Green. It is wonderful Bow completely people can ignore the ex istence of painful things that are very close to them. —People sometimes contend that the sense of property is a thing that should be dulled rather tban encouraged- But this is, in some respects, a mistake. If “Rich London” had a keen sense of property in “Poor London,” there would be nothing which would have more effect in removing squalidity through out the metropolis. Whereas, not only the sense of propriety, but even of neighborhood, ie greatly lost in this huge city. The squire has a paint ul sense of property in some poor hovel that is on the outskirts of his estate, bat which is his, and unpleasantly reminds him, as he rides by, of Mr- Drum mond’e saying, “that property has its duties as well as :ts rights.” —On sonny mornings in early summer, when the mind is most hopeful, and one is prone to take a favorable view of everything and of everybody, one may be disposed to enumerate eleven persons amongst one's blends, relations and acquaintances, who, we thins, might be entrusted with a whip, if we ourselves were to be classed amongst the lower animals. —On the other hand, in November days, one cannot make out a list of more than five people who can be thus trusted. Probably the mean number is tbe right thing; and a man of large acquaintance may admit that there are eight persons whom he would not much fear uhe were one of the lower ani mals, and whom he would allow to be in trusted with a whip. —Among the astounding things to be seen in this strange world, not the least astonish ing is the fact of such immense power over himself, over the lower animals, and, to some extent, over all those who come near him, being intrusted to every man. And the word “man” in the case certainly includes man, woman and child. —lf there are eight persons whom one would trust with a whip to be used upon one's self, is there more than one upon earth whom one could trust to criticise our works or our actions ? —Prefaces are generally very little attended to; that is the reason why so many Becrets are unintentionally betrayed. The man to whom a secret is told remembers the secret because it is something amn9ing, or interest ing, or scandalous; but he forgets the dull preface which preceded it, wherein ho was admonished “to be sure not, for the world, to tell anybody what he was going to be told” —Our life is a continual decadence of power. From one till three years old, we are Lord Paramount Baby. From three till about twenty- seven,we are subject to our superiors, —parents, masters, college dons, senior counsel, rectors and other authorities. From about the age of twenty-seven to the end of our lives, we are ruled over by those who are facetiously called our inferiors,—wives, sons, daughters, servants, olerka, deputies and junior partners. And this is the harshest rule of all, and often the most galling; for the cruelty of the weak to the strong, of the in ferior to the superior, is often very great; and there is an irony about it which is very pain ful, though somewhat ludicrous. —When a man in power asks for time to consider anything, it is generally In order that he may be able to consult his immediate in ferior, without whose sanction he dares not assent to anything. —Any one who is much talked of must be mueh maligned. This seems to bea'harsh conclusion; but when you consider how much mote given men are to depreciate than to ap preciate, you will acknowledge that there is some truth in the say ing. —The man at the head of the house can mar the pleasure of the household; but he cannot make it. That must rest with the woman, and is her greatest privilege. —Wo often suffer ourselves to be put out of all our bearings by some misfortune, not of the most serious kind; which lookß very black at the time, but which from its nature cannot be lasting. We are thus like ignorant hens that insist upon going to roost in mid day because there is a brief transitory eclipse of the sun. —The love of poetry seldom commences before the beard begins to make Its appear ance. Boys, honest fellows! generally pro nounce all poetry to be what, in their lan guage, they call “bosh." The love of poetry is apt to fade away from most men much at the same time as the liking for sweets. Again, , the love of poetry is inevitably checked and somewhat suppressed by the labors and anxieties of middle life. It thus appears that, from careless boyhood up to careful old age, the poets have but a small portion of human existence for them to work upon. Why, therefore, should they often be so laboriously obscure ? —Rapid generalization is the ruin of sci entific research. —Where flatterers fail, is from their vulgar habit of applying the same kind of flattery to all people. They would never be found out, if they knew better. It cannot be said of flattery, as waß said by an old winebibber of port wine, “Sir, there are different sorts of port: but'-all port wines are good.” Now, the “sort” is everything in flattery; that it should be the' right sort, addressed to the right man. fantpus line in Horace,— f'Cul nialiß'sl palpere 'rCcalcltret unique tutus,”— conveys the real truth. It was not that the flattery that was imagined to be addressed to Augustus was bad in itself, bat that it was not a sort which would succeed when applied to him.,. It. is not tote asserted, that any man is proof against flattery;': only that he ia proof against the wrong kind of flattety,- 2 - that is, wrong for him. And even then it must be admitted that tbe great majority of persons are pleased at seeing that anybody cares to flatter them; even though it is clum sily and provokingly done. -111-natured deeds are very rare when compared iWith ill-natured words; in short, the proportion Of the deeds tot the words la as FalstafTs pennyworth of bread to his mon strous quantity of sack. It would be a shrewdly good bargain for the world to agree that ill-natured deeds should be multiplied by teD, if only tbe ill-natured words were to he diminished by one-haJf;: fbr, j though the deed maybe a much'larger and more potent thing tban tbe word, it often does not give nearly as mnch pain. Dependants would mnch by this bargain, for they sel dom suffer mnch from deeds, but a great deal from words. Many a man goes through life scattering ill-natured remarks in all directions, who has neyer done,, to Jhis knowledge, an ill-natured deed, and who probably considers himself a very good-natured fellow, but one, however, who takes a knowing view of all human beings, and of all human affairs, and is hot to be imposed upon by anything or anybody. —Which of the seven supports to human nature, under troubles and difficulties, can be most relied upon and least spared? The seven supports are good spirits, good temper, pride, vanity, power of endurance, hopeful ness and the love of others. To tbe above question a cynic answered: “Without doubt, vanity.” Why? , i Because it is always present Common parlance proves this fact. You can say of a man, bh has lost hia good Bplrita, hia good temper, bis love for others, his pride, his power of endurance, his hopefulness; but whoever heard any one say ofanother, “He has lost bis vanity?” —That' word “gradually” has come to have a wrong meaning in most men’s minds. They do cot think of it as applying to something which occurs by steps, according to tbe La tin derivation, but as something which moves up or down an inclined plane. Now it was the remark of one of the shrewdest men of our time, that almost every mental operation seems to go by steps. In learning anything, this is to be seen. Yesterday there was a great difficulty; to-day it is overcome by some sudden apprehension of the mind, which may be compared to a step. So, ia tbe moral workings of our nature, every movement seems to go by steps. He noted this especially as regards re trograde movement A good resolve ia termed, but, as he said, it is gradu ally let down like a boat in a canal, by suc cessive locks. This is admirably illustrated by one of Miss Ferrier’s or Mis 3 Austen’s novels, where a son, left very well oi£ is en joined by his father, on his death-bed, to pro vide for his sisters. The son begins by think ing that he must allow his Bisters £l,OOO a year; bat by Bnceesßive locks he gradually lowers bis generous Intention till It comes down to a determination to send them some fruit, flowers and game occasionally, whioh, as he, or his wife, says, is all that his good father could have intended. —What an immense respect one has for a man who is just dead, thinking that he may have suddenly come into such a vast estate of knowledge! This feeling goes ofi after a time, when one thinks that he lb on'y one of the majority; bat at first it iB a striking,—nay, an almost appalling thought. And the newly dead man may be what we call an ignorant peasant,which adds much to the dread nature of the thought —Let ns see who are the people who make society disagreeable. First, there are managing people. The managing people are of three kinds. They are either imperious pereonß, or very good natured persons, or very conceited persons. And eometimes the three motives which cause a man or woman to be troublesomely man aging are combined in one and the same per son. Now, the objection which most people have to being managed is, that they have an unconquerable wish to manage for them selves. But there is another and a very potent cause why people often reject themoßt excel lent proposals for beißg managed. It is, that the managing person does not know some se cret, but very strong, motive of the person to be managed, and therefore all the manager's wise suggestions are beside the mark. Let us take a familiar instance which might occur in real life. There is a young man (we will call him Mr. Amans) in the same house with one of the tribe of managers. Mr. Amans is asked by what train he is returning to London, and he-says by the ten o’clock train. This is in the smoking-room, after the ladies have gone to bed. Up jumps the manager, whips out his “Bradshaw,” and tells Mr. Amanß that it is positive insanity not to go by the nine o’clock train. “If you go by the ten o'clock train, a very slow train, yon will not get into town till four o'clock in the morning,—a most uncomfortable time; whereas, if yon go by the nine, you will be in by twelve at night, and have a good night’s jrest. Do let me order the carriage for half past eight o'clock!” The young man looks rvery sheepish, stammers out some foolish objection to the nine o’clock train, but holds his ground, and will not be managed. And iwby ? Mr. Amans thought that there was a faint return on the part of Miss Amata to the iwarm pressure of his hand when he bade her good-night that evening; and he would lose fifty nights’ rest, and tightly too, in order to {ascertain whether that faint return of prea jßure will be repeated, or, perhaps, increased, ten the ensuing morning. Now, the famUy breakfast is not till nine o’clock. j The above is an instance of a trivial and familiar nature; but the same thing runs through life. When the manager thinks any of us unreasonable, he may reflect perhaps he does not know all the motives which, however unreasonable, determine us to a course of action contrary to that which he so ably recommends. Then there is the class of people whom I venture to call the observantluea. They muat make remarkß about everything; and there are a great many things in this life which had better pass without any remark. Then there are the objective people. Let any one say anything, however wise or fool ish, important or unimportant, they must in stantly take an objection. They really do not mean to abide by their objection; but they must take it. Nothing should be done without being well argued over; and it is their business to see that objection is made to whatever is proposed. Then there are the explanativo people. Now, even the cleverest man, and the most adroit talker, utters many sentences which aro needless. You see at once what he is go ing to Bay. But the explanative person will not let you off one single jot of explanation. His talk is like the writing of a stupid book lor children. Then there is the discursive talker. Yon are discußßmg the effect of the large importa- BULLI&TIKr-PHILADELFHIA, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 1869. tions of gold from Australia.
