His social feelings enable him to wield
a powerful influence over men, through
the friendly and fraternal impulses; hence
he is capable of making many friends and
being very popular.
His large, broad chin -indicates a full

some of the best lawyers and public men

known for his "Pennsylvania Black

to adapt the immortal "Cfumentaries" to
our: modern. law. He was a first-rate law

ciples:
Andrew G-. Curtin was admitted to the
I •
bar in 18,39, and began the practice of the
lake in his native town. He immediately
entered upon ' a large and varied practice
and has ever since been constantly and
aCtively employed in the courts' of the
counties of Centre, Clearfield, Mifflin, and
Clinton His great information, his vig.

became one of the best and most rising

A man with the gifts and temperament
of Andrew G. Curtin could not but be
largely interested and concerned in pub.
lief affairs. Strikingly amiable, - genial,
and warm-hearted, of luminous, quick,
and extensive intelligence, of, the most
engaging address,. endowed 'with a fluent,
fac l etious and . captivating eloquence, and
instinct vvith'old peniisylvaiiia triditiVuS
of policy and patriotism, he threw him
self at once into those political controver
sie which, es Burke tells us, are the no
blet employment of the cuitivatedman.
n 1840 he - took an active part in the
political campaign in behalf of Gendral
Harrison. In 1844 he was a fervid ad
liernt of the illustrious candidate of the
Whigs, and he stumped all central Pen
nsylvania for Henry Clay. In that strug
gle Alr Curtin first acquired his wide
spread renutation of effective and resist
less popular eloquence. There was ,not
a county from the Susquehanna to;the
Allcg,hanies iti which the name of Andrew
U Curtin ever failed to attract the very
largest erriwds, who eagerly gathered to
EEO
~,j,Dy the feasts of wisdom and 'wit, of
humor pittlioS, of poetry, statistics,
argument, and imagery; which he
sprekl out on his glowing and uniittious
periods.
In Is4B he was placed on the Whig
electOrial ticket, and agi.:in traversed
..any -sections of the State in behalf of
General Zachary Taylor. He wm; an orig

On the election of Hon. James Pollock
to the Governorship of Pennsylvania, in
1854. Mr. Curtin was appointed Secre-
tary of the Commonwealth, the. duties of
which office he pGrforMed with signal
ability and discretion.
After his retirement from the secreta
ryship, he again devoted himself to the
practice .of the law, in Boliefont, until
1860, when he was nominated as the
neople's•candidate for Governor, after an
earnest struggle• Made by such competit•
ors as Messrs Covode, Howe, and Tag
gart; and after a contest of unexampled
warmth, he was elected by 32,000 major
thus securing the State for Lincoln
and virtually determining the great i'res
idential election of that year. To no one
man was the great national triumph of
1860 so much indebted as to Guy. Curtin.
He entered the ,gubernatorial chair in
January, 1861, wlien several of the-cot
ton States had formally withdrawn from
the Union. Ho had therefore to grap
ple with the rebelliob from the day be

Young ladies pUst the alge of Mee.,
and from that delicate and interesting
age all the way up to forty,,, and perhaps
even later, are- generally supposed to be,
more or less, on tha.,look•out for a hus
band. Nice dresses and pretty bobnet,
music and dancing, and the polite ad.
complishwents in societies where these
are cultivated, and very much of what 4:
called society, are supposed to have thi'
object in view.
We do not :sap how just ,this bu
such h. undoubtedly the p:tpular
It is believed that Dino out of ten of all
young unmarried ladies would not !objec{
to a good husband.
But the supply of good !husbands is
not equal to the demand. Ounsequen6
we have some. hundreds of thousands ol
old maids—nuns who have taken no veil
or vows, and do not live in convents, bull
who, are none the less living l in a state of
celibacy. Some seem to thipk that thiJ,
is a dangerous and itnmoral, state.' We
are not of that opinion.
The surplus of *omen make the ,eelib
acy of many a nessity. The unwgrthi
nessof men is the cause of a number.—
We see thousands of men !around us,
whose married state is a constant marvel
to us. We cannot conceive how they
ever induced any Woman to have them.
Rough in mutters, - carelesa in their mot:-
els, slovenly in appearance, and filthy in
habits, how can these men be the fit lite
bands of tender, delicate, loving women ?
Still such men do get married. We read
about them in
. the newspapers; Some :
times they' are complainedof for beating,
bruising, or stabbing their Wives. Some
times it is a suit for divorce. But
.there'
are thoulands of such cases 'Olt are nev

woman, dies of a brutal husband, and the
world never knows it. ,
Until the
_standard of husbandry vb..

the struggle of life without their help.
There is too mueli marrying in haste;
and 9f donsequence;"too much repenting
at leisure.. Marriage, which develops, all
that is lovely in woman, Sometimes brings
out the worst qualities of men. Many a
woman at f rty exceeds the promise of
her girlhood ; but how very few, are the
wen who do not fall very far short of the
hopes of youth.
Probably_ the chief motive to many
marriage is never avowed and, scarcely
suspected . Women are such angels of
charity, that they marry men out of pare'
Isenevolenee, in the hope of making them
better. They know how much men need
their society, and influence, and how
much worse they would be without them;
and so they give themselves up. for bet
ter or worse, - sacrifices ob the altar of
charity.— Wide World.

A IBRAVE BOY:
W I hen I was a boy, I lived among the
Green' Mountains of Vermont ; in winter

Tlin prairie was covered with flowers, 'and I
th many clear lakes arannd abounded in
fieli and ducks , but onr principal food
was hoe.eake and salt-pork. '
One of our neighbors had had no meat
for t some time, and being out of powder,
the l y :had no game. So one day they sent
up their oldest son, ti boy about ten years
old, for a piece of pork. As he was car- I
rying it homewards, and going through a
piece of woods - by Silver Lake; he heard
a rustling 'of the leaves in a thicket by
the 'readside. .He stopped and listened
—6ll was still. Again he pushed for
ward, ; again the leaves. rustled behind !
him, and he thought he heard a stealthy '
I step. 'Again he stopped; everything was
still, except the gentle'dash of the waves
upon the pebbly beach, and the rapid
beating of his own heart.

Again came the stealthy step behind !
him; nearer and nearer, until he saw al
gatint.- savage wolf creeping after him ;1
and as he hurried on, still clinging to his ,
, I
meat, the wolf was coming nearer and!
nearer, - and he might at any moment'
spring upon him..
Still the boy, though he trembled in
every limb, did not lose his presence of,
mind. Be remembered having.beard his
father say that if 'any one faced a wild
anitaal, and looked it square in the eye,l
it would not dare to attack him: He

I i
bommenced walking backwards to
wards his home, still a long wild and a
halt away. As the woods grew darker,
the' wolf came nearer, showing .his wimp
reedi, with the hair bristling upon 'his
back.
The courageous boy knew that if lie
gave up his piece of pork, he _was safe,
and could run home numolestect; hat he
knew there were hungry ones at home
awaiting his return. Su backwards lie
wen , step by steb. As the wolf c am e
near, die hit him a square bloiv upon the,
head l oith a atone, when with an angry I
yelP, the wolf sprang into the thicket,and
set ;UP a long, dismal howl. The boy
listened to hear if there were - answering
howls, and hearing none took courage;
but ',Soon the savage beast, maddened
with hunger, came at him again. . With
his elhb he gave him a Well drected.blow
betviebn the eyes, which sent him howl-1
back again into the thicket.
Again aid again was the Contest re•
Dewed. Many times did the savage an
imal Make a spring at the lad, and many
titueS did the brave boy beat hint off, un
til ad last he came near the log-'cabin of
his parents, when the disappointed wolf,
withr a long and Wailing Sound, dashed
away, into the woods. Trembling with
excitement, and wet with perspiration,
the boy dropped the meat upon the floor,
crying -
"Mother, I've got it,? and fell 'exhaus
