Why do we live or die ? Who knows that secret deep? Alas, not I ! Why doth the violet spring Unseen by human eye ? Why do the radient seasons bring Sweet thoughts that quickly tiy ? Why do our fond hearts cling To things that die ? We toil through pain and wrong ; We fight and fly ; We love ; we lose; and then ere long, Stone dead we lie. Oh ! Life, is all thy song Endure an1 die? Rats J?"? ix Them. Chloride of, lime has proved a sure thing to drive rats' "0?.-ri infecteJ by them.

One application of chloride of lime to rat holes has driven them away for a year, when a renewal of it start ed them again. " - England seems likely to get ahead of us in a matter, in regard to which the general impression is, we can defy competition. Mr." Bright recently declared in the House of Commons that the present House is the most corrupt House of Commons ever as sembled; that he had computed the total amount paid by the present members at 1,000,000. Asingle member naupaia ill, -. 000 in law charges and otherwise to oust a member improperly returnad. A benevolent lady went to visit a family who were said to be almost starving. She found them half clad.cold, and not a morsel of food in the house. "What do you most need? sha asked of the mother of the fam ily. "Why. I did a'wostwant a headdress they're so becoming!" This, with a little meat and flour, and a photograph album would have completed the poor woman's happiness. A local editor has iust seen a man whom he thinks pretty well occupied. lie -had his wifo on one arm, a baby on the other, a basket and cane in his hands, a cigar in his mouth and two litttle hopeful heirs at tached to his coat tails.- Some one. curious in these matters has made a calculation in regard to the salaries paid to ministers in this country and the number of sermons says that the average price paid for a sermon, take thj land thro', is only three cents. Eve is said to Be the only woman who never threatened to go to live with her mother; and Adam the first man whoev er went to h ousekeapins without first try ing to board with his mother-in-law. "Are you' near sighted, Miss?" said an impudent fellow to a young lady who did not choose to notice him. "Yes; at this distance I can hardly tell whether you are a pig or a puppy." It is altogether too absurd to say that "man is not perfect" Who is thcrer.who has not met with perfect strangers.some who were perfect rascals, and not a few who were perfect fools? If it is true that when wine is in the head wit is out, does it follow that when wine is out wit is in? If so the inference is, that the graver people are the more funny they appear. j A Mau having stepped on a cat's tail and made her mew piteously, his companion re marked that her cry was involuntary, but the other exclaimed "Oh, no.it was on purr puss." "Well, Pat, why don't you put up your umbrella?" "Because, yer honor, the rain 'ed spile it, bo I kept it under my arm, an' divil a dhrop it's got." A great many young men about town evi dently believe in steam power. They use it daily,and go home at night under a full head of steam. - A high rent a hole in your hat TERMS OF. TIIK JOl'RNAL.
