    CLEARFIELD, PA. APRIL 8, 1868.
. LIFE IS BUT A SPAS'.
Life is but a span of horses ;
One is "Age," the other "Prime,"
Up and down the hill our course is :
"Go in," ponies, "iuake yonr time."
Boyhood plies the whip of pleasure ;
Youthful folly gives a stroke ;
. Manhood goads them at hia leisure ;
"Let 'em rip, they're tough as oak." .
"Hi yal there !" the stakes we'll pocket,
To the winds let care be lent ;
Time 2:40, 'whip in socket ;"
"Give 'em string and let ,em went."
On the sunny road to fifty,
' "Prime" is drowned id Lethe's stream ;
."Age" is left lame, old, unthrifty;
. Life then proves a "one horse team."
"Age" goes on, grows quite unsteady,
Reels and slackens in his pace ;
"Kicks the bucket," always ready,
"Gives it up" death wins the race.
What Are Tou Doing?
Thoughtless and indolent persons will re
g
ly "Nothing," or "Nothing in particular."
Jut they are mistaken. Though not en-
eaeed in any regular employment, they are
forming character. There is no standing
still in life. We advance or recede grow
ing in grace, or going to waste, A thought
ful or industrious person will reply, "I am
trying to improve 'myself, that I may be
more useful to others, and thus increase my
own happiness." A thriftless young man
will "wait for something tourn up," in
stead of going to work and turning some
thing up. One "waits for dead men's
shoes," while another more enterprising earns
his own shoes. What are you doing ? Are
you improving in mind or in pocket ? You
should do both at the same time. We can
, work and think, or, machine like, work and
not think.
Elihu Burrett, the learned blacksmith, is
said to have studied many languages more
than fifty while working at the anvil. Shoe
makers have become legislators and states
wen ; and a good tailor may be promoted to
a high office. Gen. Grant was a tauner and
currier. All great men, or men who rise in
life, have been real workers and hard stu
dents. Nor is it wise to be over nice as to
the calling, so that it be useful and honora
ble. Too many, who are not fitrbr them,
aim for the learned professions, not realizing
the fact, that it is better to be a good me
chanic, farmer, or merchant, than a poor
lawyer, doctor, or preacher. The question
should be, "In what calling can I do the
most good ? be most useful? succeed the
best ? But if you would not become a de
pendent pauper, a miserable vagabond, go
to work and do something make brooms or
baskets, fish nets or fanning mills, and thus
call the faculties into use, and develop them.
It is wicked to be idle. What are you doing ?
Another Subterranean Wonder, At
La Crosse thejhave been boring an artesian
well. At the depth of two hundred and
eighty feet the workmen at the well became
sensible of a remarkaMe change going on
. within the bore ; the drill had been working
through a substratum of dark porous rock
for five hours, and had been making rapid
progress, when suddenly the machinery
stopped, the rods became violently agitated,
and & deafening explosion ensued; followed
by a stream of boiling water, gushing with
mighty force through the tube from the
'depth below. The startled workmen were
blinded by clouds of steam. ' George Hayes,
the workman in charge of the drill at the
time, had a very narrow escape. He receiv
ed a jet of boiling water on his neck and
breast, but was partially protected by heavy
woolen clothing. Others were more or less
injured. The upward pressure is supposed
to be not less than two nundred , pounds to
the square inch. The mean temperature is
e about 183 of Reamur's thermometer.
ALad in Luck. The Cleveland (Ohio)
Plaindeahr says : Lemuel Jones, a lad
about sixteen years of age, yesterday met
with extraordinary good fortune. He was
engaged in the task of walking from Erie to
Chicago, being a ventursome lad, and hav
ing some vague plan of seeking his fortune
in the latter city. Between Euclid and
Cleveland, he picked up a large wallet, tight
ly tied with a piece of red tape. Upon open
ing the wallet $6,000 in greenbacks were
disclosed to the glistening eyes of the boy,
who had not expected t find his fortune in
bo short a time after leaving home. There
were no papers in the wallet indicating to
whom it belonged, and it is possible the boy
will remain in undisputed possession of the
money. The wallet had been exposed to
the weather and was considerably damaged ;
some of the greenbacks, too, were somewhat
injured, but not to affect the value of any
of them. ' ,
AlX There. A whole family in heaven!
Who can picture or describe the everlasting
day ? No one absent ; nor father, nor moth
er, nor son, nor daughter, are away. In, the
world below they were united in faith, and
love, and peace, and joy. In the morning of
the resurrection they ascended together.
Before the $irone they bow together in uni
ted adoration. On the banks of the River
of Life they walk hand in hand, and as a
family have commenced a career of glory
which shall be everlasting. There is to be
hereafter no separation in that family. No
one is to lie down upon a bed of pain ; no
ona to wauder in the arms of death. Nev
er, in heaven, is that family to move alone
in the slow procession, clad in the habili
ments of woe, to consign one of its members
to the tomb. God grant that, in his infin
iff mercy, every family may be thus united.
Poultry. The yard should be cleared of
all but the stock intended to be kept over.
For farmers the Brahma, Dorking, or other
medium or rather large bodied breeds, are
the best. The eggs are larger, and the fowls
are more satisfactory when served on the
table, t resh meat, variety ot food, and
good quartets, will coax quite a'supply of
eggs from tne poultry this month. A few
broods of very early chickens will be splen
did for the table, or profitable for market
An auctioneer at a late sale of antiquities,
put up a helmet, with the following candid
observation : ''This, ladies and gentlemen,
is a helmet of Romulus, the Roman founder,
but whether he was a brass or iron founder
I cannot tell."
