Young Genius.
Mr. Disraeli has, in his Coning tby, this
s'riking passage :—“Genius, when young, is
divine. Why, the greatest.captains of an
cient and modern limes both conquered Italy
at twenty-fi VP -! Youth, extrema youth, over
threw the Persian empire. Don John of
Austria won Lepanto .al twenty-five —the
greatesi battle of modern times: had it not
been for the. jealousy or Philip, the next year
he would have been Emperor of Mauritania.
G ision de Foix was only twenty-two when
he stood a victor on the plains of "Ravenna.
Every one remembers Conde and Rocroy at
the same age. Gustavus Adolphus died at
' thirty-eight. Look at his captains —that won
derful Duke of Weimar, only thirty-six when
he died. Banner himself, after all his mira
cles, died at forty-five. Cortez was little
.more than thirty when ha gazed upon the
golden cupolas of Mexico. When Maurice
of "Saxony died at thirty-two, all Europe ac
knowledged the loss of the greatest captain
and the profoundest statesman of the age.—
Then there is Nelson and Clive ; but these
ore warriors, and perhaps you may think
there are greater things than war. Ido not.
I worship the Lord of Hosts. But take the
most illustrious achievmenls of civil prudence.
Innocent 111., the greatest of the popes, was
the despnf of Christendom at thirty-seven.—
John de Medici was a cardinal at fifteen, and,.
Guicciardini tells us, baffled wiih bis craft
Ferdinand de Aragon himself. He was Pope
ns Leo X. at thirty-seven. Take\lgnatius
Loyola and John Wesley ; they worked with
young brains. Ignatius was only thirty w hen
he made bis pilgrimage and wrote the Spirit
ual Exercises. Pascal, (the greatest of
Frenchmen) wrote a great work at sixteen,
and died at thirty-seven. Ah, that fatal
thirty-seven ! which reminds me of Byron—
grea'er even os a man than a writer. Was
it experience that-guided the pencil of Raph
rel when he painted the palaces of Rome 7
lie died tit ihirty-seven. Richeliu was Sec
retary of State at thirty-one. Well, then
there are Bolingbroke and Pitt, both ministers
before other men leave off cricket. Grotius
was in pracicc at seventeen and attorney
general at twenty-four. And Acquaviva was
General of the Jesuits, ruled every cabinet in
Europe and colonized America before he
was ihirty-seven. What a career! the se
cret sway of Europe! That was indeed a
position! Bui it is needless to multiply ins
tances. The history of heroes is the history
of jfaut b."
A ceriain lady, remarking upon the dress
nf n recently bereaved widow, said that
“block silk became her extremely well, but
bombazine would have shown a deeper sense
of her loss.’’
We once knew an old German Professor
who had collec'ed a valuable cabinet of curi
osities, which he highly prized. One morn
ing a friend came to tell him of a very un
pleasant circumstance—that he had seen a
man go up n ladder into a window of the Pro
fessor’s house.
“Into what window?’’ cried the philoso
phcr.
“I am very sorry to say,” replied his
friend, “it was your own daughters.”
- “Oh, man,-* said the other, “you almost
frightened me; I thought it hadhe*n in. the
cabinet -
Street Education. —The city missionray
visited nn unhappy man in jail, wailing his
trial for a slate prison crime. “Sir,” said
the prisoner, tears running down his cheeks,
“I had n good home education; it was my
street education that ruined me. I used to
slip out of the house and go off with boys in
the sheet. In lljtT street 1 learned to lounge;
in the street 1 learned to swear; in the street
1 learned to smoke; in the street 1 learned to
gamble ; in ihe street 1 learned to pilfer. O.
sir, it is in the street the devil lurks, to work
the ruin of the young.” Is this so 1 Deware
then, boys, of a street education, and stay at
home. And let parents see to it, that home
training is pleasant, and sltong, and sound
enough to grapple with and conquer the bad
and dangerous influences of street society.
Influence of a Shilf,. — A beautiful
smile is to the female countenance what the
sunbeam is to the landscape. It embellishes
an inferior face, and redeems an ugly one.
A smile, however, should not become habit
ual, or insipidity is Ihe result; nor should
ihe mouth break in to a smile on one side,
the other remaining passive and unmoved, fur
this imparls an air of deceit and grolesqueness
to ihe face. A disagreeable smile distorts
the lines of beauty and is more repulsive than
a frown. There are many kinds of smiles,
each having a distinct character. Some
announce goodness and sweetness; others
betray sarcasm, bitterness and pride; some
soften the countenance by their languishing
tenderness, others brighten by their spiritual
vivacity.
Mothers for the Kingdom of Heaven.
—ft is much easier for a woman 10 enter Hie
Kingdom uf Heaven than it is for the rest of
the world. She fancies she is leading the
children, when, after all, the children are
leading her; and they keep her, indeed,
where the river is the narrowest and the air
the clearest ; and (he beckoning of a radiant
hand is so plainly seen from the other side,
that it is no wonder that she often lets go her
clasp upon the little fingers she is holdng,
and goes over id her neighbors, and the chil
dren follow like lambs to the fold, for we
think it ought some where to be written,
“VVhere the mother is, there will the children
be* a Iso.”
Ti
iie Way to Make Pies.—An old lady
in the country had a dandy from the city to
dine with her on a ceitain occasion. For the
desserts there was an enormous apple pie.
“La< ma’am!" said the gentleman, “How
do you manage to handle such a pie I”
“Easy enough, ’’ was the quiet reply ; “we
make the crust up in a wheelbarrow, wheel it
under an apple tree, and then shako the fruit
into it.’'.
A young woman who hod been disappoint
ed in love, attempted to commit suicide at
Pittsburg a few days since, by jumping into
the Allegheny river, but was unable to sink
on account of her hooped skirls. As she
.floated calmly-down the stream she was
rescued, and went home quite ashamed of
herself.
