A SKETCH, BY WILLIAM ELDER
•,
When a man's life ,
heroic, and his name
has passed into histiatv, the world wants to
know him personally, intimately. „ The "grave
and reverend chronicler," passing over his
beginnings, presents him abruptly in his full.
grown greatness; melt render the admiration
earned. but the sYnipathetic emulation
awakened is concerned to kncw.how he grew
into his maturity of 'excellence. This curi
osity is not an idleness of the faney, but a
personal interest in the facts that spring out
of those aspirations which put every man up
on the fulfillment of his own destiny. How
came this man to excel—what was io .him 4
what happenedto develope it? "Some men
are born great; some achieve greatness ; some ;
have greatness thrUst upon them." How
came this man by it? Is it within my reach
also? and, by what means? History pro
vokei us with such qiicries as these: Biogra- !
ph) , answers them. !
Doctor Elisha Kent:dia e is not quite thirty
four years old, yet ht has done more than
. cumnavigate the globe; be has visited and
traversed India, Afriett, Europe, South Ameri
ca, the islands of the.. l'acific, and twice pene
trated the Arctic repo) to the highest latitude I
attained by civilized; pan. .He has encoun- !
tered the extremest perils of sea and land, in
e‘ery climate of the; globe ' he has discharg
ed in turn the severest duties of the soldier
and the seaman; 'attached to the United
States Navy as a surgeon, he is, nevertheless, 1
engaged at one tim i r in the coast survey of;
the tropical ocean, lid in a month or two we 4,
find him exploring the frigid zone; and all
the while that his personal experience had
the character of rotaantic adventure, ha- weal
pushing them in the: spirit of scientific and
philanthropic enter Prise.
As a boy, his instinctive bent impelled him
to the indulgence mid enjoyment ot such ad-1
ventures as were beSt fitted to train him for
the work before hini.! His colleiitite studies ;
suffered some postpohement while his physi- !
cat qualities pressed; for their necessary train-,
ing and disciplitie.l.l . ft. was almost in the;
spirit of truancy that he explored the Blue
Mountains of Virginia, as a student of geolo
gy; under the guidance of Professor Rodgers,.
and cultivated, at once, his hardihood of vital
energy and those eleMents of natural science
which were to qualify him for his after service
in the field of. physieul geography. But, in
due thee he returned! to the pursuit of riera
ture, and achieved the usual honors, as well
as though his Coliege,! studies had suffered no
diversion—his muscles and nerves ;were edu
cated, and his bride lost nothing by the in
directness of its•deinlopment, but was rather
corroberated fix nil' the uses which it has
served since. He graduated at the liniversi
ty- of Petinsylvaniatirst, in its icolleginte,

for girls who enter into matrimony purely

may be left in utter indigence , ; for papa is
terribly extravagant, drowned .in debt, and
unable to face his bills at New Year's. Oth

from which they would be glad to escape on
almost any condition. Others aro weak iu

found favor in the eyes of their mammas.—
Yet every one of these may, have her sezret
attachment. Always in the haek.ground there
appears the vision of that slim and early
youth who danced the path so delightfilly,
and whose attentions at the pie-nic were so
marked and gratifying. But, then, Clara is

KEEP THE MOUTH SHUT lIURING COLO WEA-
Tmat—ln the Jour! al to/ Health, Dr. Hall
advises everybody who goes out into the open
air from a warm apartment, to keep the mouth
shut while walkinr , e , or•riding. He says:
'''Before you leave - the room, bundle up well
yes, cloak,:comfortershut your month
befor • Yoli - open, the street door, and keepp it
resolutely closeituntil yon have walked brisk
ly to some ten;Minutes ,• then, if you keep on
waling, or hare reached your home, you may
tal, as much tis you please. Not so doing,
many a heart once happy'and young now lies
in the churchyard, that might have been
young and happy still. But how? If you
keep your mouth closed and walk rapidly, the
air can only reach the lungs by a circuit of
the tiose and head, and becomes warmed be•
fore reaching the lungs, thus causing no de
rangement; but if you converse, large drafts
.of cold air dash directly in upon the longs,
chilling the whole frame almost instantly.
The walking throws the blood to the surface
of the body, thus keeping up a vigorous cir
culation, making a cold , impossible if you
don't get into tk cold bed too , quick after you
get home. Neglect - of .these bring sickness
1 and P remature death to multitudes every
year.' .... -

Divine tornmunication. It is when the storm
of passion has spent its fury—when the pow
ers from beneath no longer move the soul by
an impulse that threatens its destruction.—
When the destroying flame that has filled the
mind' with terror and-dismay is extinguished,
and the elements are all bushed to rest--then,
'the serene and tranquil: Spirit holds commu
