    Henry Ward Beecher.
A lady of Mr. Beecher’s congregation,
Augusta Monre, has just published a collec
tion of memorable sayings from his discour
ses, with some remarks about the man. We
lake from it the following:
■ “Although Mr. Beecher himself seldom
appears to be in much haste, there is always
an air of being in a hurry about his clothes
and his hair, —they manifest intentions of
going forward, whether he goes or remains
standing still. His neck is so short that he
never ventures a standing up collar. This,
probably, is in consideration for his ears.
One very remarkable singularity in his
face is the utter incongruity between ns front
and its side views. Upon being told that he
resembled Henry Ward Beecher, a relative
of that clergyman replied, laughingly, “I
know that 1 am said to look like him ; but
his such, resemblance as a sheep hears to a
lion.” Now the fact is, were That humble,
minded relative of the famed “lion” a great
deal more like a “sheep” than he considers
himself to be, he might still bear striking
resemblance to bis cousin ; for though when
he turns full towards you, in the beat of bis
discourse, Mr. Beetjther frequently doesVpre
sent the appearance of a lion, it is next to
impossible for a person of on imaginative
turn of mind to vie|v his projlle without br.
ing s'rongly reminded of ovine faces seen
and perhaps loved in the days and the years
gone by.
When not in a “brown study,” Mr. Beech,
er’s manners are the most free and genial
that can be imagined; but every year seems
to render him more and more abstracted.—
People are sometimes hurt and offended by
his indifference and forgetfulness of them,
when lie is utterly unconscious of all outward (
things, intent upon his next sermon or lecture;
for he. makes bis sermons in the streets, in
smres, in lumber yards, on ferry boats or
wherever he may chance lobe. And it is
plain to he seen, that a man in the midst of
sermon making cannot be very thoughtful in
his monners in those who chance to pass or
In pause bes’de. him.
He is unto greater man, not a more learned
inan,_nni a better man, than many other min-
Utcis «bo never ran keep people awake.—
But he is more alive. Why; there is in
tense life in att that, in desk or putpil, lie
dues or says. What wonder that he whn is
so vivid then? should sometimes aog. and
smoulder when 'he excitement of his work is
over.
Mr. B p echer is a sound and vigorous man,
physically ; but he cannot last always—he,
as well as olheis, must die ; and where is the
material that shall live after him that shall
show to the future world that a man once
lived and died ? fie is now forty-six years
o!d, and nnt yet are prepared the witnesses
which shall speak for him after he has gone
hence. Full measure,; pressed down, run
ning over, has his life ever given ; but will
he be of their number whose dying Is but an
endless multiplying of their life? His ser.
mens, matchless as they are, are seldom ful
ly written nut ; and no mortal hand but his
can properly retouch them. Hitherto he has
nut, except in one or two instances, given to
the world proof of what he is. In his pulpit
-■on his own platform—he is seen and known
—known to such as have listened to him of -
en—for no one can judge of Henry Ward
Beecher from one or two sermons. No crys
tal was ever so many sided as be; all sides
so bright and pure; but abroad, where he
goes to lecture, they neilhersee nor hear him.
Henry Ward Beecher came of a goodh
Mnck'j Welch blood, with ils poelry and
music, flows in his veins. He is indeed a
poet; though it is not known that ever in his
lile he made one line to rhyme with another.
Cut get him before a fine painting, and se.-
the poeiie, frenzy that comes mightily upon
him there. ‘ -
He is not much gified with prudence in ihe
use of money ; and is so generous towards
ihose lhai have need of his aid, that as a gen
tleman of his congregaiion remarked, when
there was talk in regard to raising his sal
ary : “Three thousand dollars a year is, as
far as his own interest is concerned, just as
good as len thousand ; for he has nothing
now when the end of the year comes; and
he would have no more then.”
■ J
Brain-wjbrk.
Over-work of the brain, against which we
hear so many people cry, and which we hear
so many cozy-looking men deplore so com
placently in their own persons, is not by a
good deal so dangerous as under-work of ihe
brain, that rare and obscure calamity from
which nobody is supposed ever to suffer.—
The Rov. Onesimus Howl drops his chin and
e evates his eyes, upsets his digestion wiih ex
cess of lea and muffin, and supports, Upon
the doughy face he thus acquires, a reputa
"tion for the great strain on his brain caused
by the outpouring of a weekly puddle of
words. His friends labor to prop up his
brain with added piles of muffin. Paler be
comes his face, and more idiotic his expres
sion, as he lives from New Year’s day to
'New Year’s day ratiling nbout in his emp'y
n-.id the few ideas of other men he has con
nived 10 borrow, and tranquility claims all
ill" s«eet« of indulgence on account of the
j-'iain pul upon his wits. Dr. Porpice is
wheeled.about from house to house in his
bioughim; prescribes his cordials and his
mild aperients; treats, by help of what
knowledge gathered from a past generation
may happen to have grown inlo his habit of
practice, all the diseases he sees; now and
ihen turns to a book when he is puzzled, but
more commonly dozes after dinner. Yet
very gladly does ihe doctor hear the talk
■ihoiil immense strain on his mind, large prac
■ great responsibility, and ihe wondenno
'hat one poor head can cany all he knows.
He seldom passes a day without having ta
ken cure to confide to somebody that he is
overworked. Once a week, indeed, if his
practice be large, be.may be forced into some
effort 10 use his brains; but that he does re
ally exercise them once a week, f am not
certain. The lawyer elevates his routine in
to a crush of brain-work. The author and
ihe merchant flatter themselves, or account
themselves flattered, by an application to their
labors also of the same complimentary con
dolence. The truth is. that hard work of the
brain, taken alone— apart from griefs'and
J
fears, from forced or voluntary stinting of the
body’s need of food or sleep, and the mind’s
need of social intercourse —doea infinitely
more to prolong life and strengthen reason
in the worker than to cut or fray lbs thread
of either. Men break down under the grind
of want, under the strain of a continuous de
nial to the body of its half a dozen hours of
sleep a day, its few necessary pounds of
wholesome food, and its occasional exercise
of tongue and legs. If an author spends bis
whole life in bis study, bis mind fails under
the pressure of the solitary system. If a
great lawyer refuses himself month after
month the necessary fourth part of the day
for sleep, he wears his brain out, not by re
pletion of study, but by privation of some
thing else. Under all ordinary circumstan
ces no man who performs work for which he
is competent is called upon to deny himself
the first necessaries of life, except during
short periods of encroachment which occur
to men in every occupation, and which sei
dotn are of long duration, and can almost in
variably be followed by a period of ease suf
ficient for recovery. Healthy men, while
they have bed and board assured them, while
they can eat, sleep, stir, and be merry, will
have soutid minds, though they work their
brains all, day, and provide them for the other
five or six’hours with that light employment
which is the chief toil of Dr. Porpice or the
Reverend Onesimus.—Household Words.
JIoLEFUt Times in the Western Cocn
tbv. —The traveling correspondent of The
Madison (Wis.) Journal gives a very gloo
my pictures of his experience in the country.
He writes;
“To travel round among the farmers as
we have done for the last four weeks, and
hear times’ repeated forty times a day,
as excuse for not taking a paper, or paying
up old scores ; to see men, women and chil
dren in threadbare and tattered garments ;
paper pasted, boards nailed up, or old hats
or clothes stuffed into windows where should
ha glass; to find country s’ores closed, or
doing very little; men working for their
board, or a mere trifle; promises to pay,
whether verbal or written, of no account ;
men even denying their own notes; to see
the closest economy practiced by all, those
whose large houses and barns indicate con
siderable means, as well as those living in
cabins; to hear the dolorous complaints of
taxes—one realizes the severity with which
the finanical pressure is fell.”
.... A brakeman by the name of Tuttle, a res
idehl of Owego, was killed on Friday near
Big Flats, in consequence of falling from the
top of a freight car in passing from one to
another. It is a singular circumstance that
he had but recently taken the place on that
train of a brakeman who was killed in a
similar manner at about the same spot.—Cor.

Physicians recommend it mostly for complaints of

TO THE LADIES!
A New Kind of Soap
has recently been invented, which promises to su
persede all other kinds ofhard soap. It is used ex
tensively for washing clothes, and possesses the re
markable property of extracting dirt without boiling
ibe dollies and without the use of (he rubbing board.
The process of washing requires less than half the
time, and only about half the labor, by using (bis
Patent Soap. This article is peculiarly excellent,
and superior to any thing else called Soap; because
while it saves time and labor, it never rots or in
jures the clothes. It is just the article it is repre
sented to be, and never disappoints the expectations
of purchasers. It docs not lake out stains. For
