?Mmm^^^tan-?--- ------ Better than Gold. Better than gold is thc sweet repose Of the sons of toil when their Ichors close; Bettor than gold is the poor mac's sleep, And the balm that drops on his slumbers deep. Bring sleeping draughts to tho cuwny bed Whero luxury pillows his aching head ; His simple opiato labor deems A shorter road to the land of dreams. Bettar than gold is a thinking mind, That in tho realms-of books can find A treasure surpo.-siug Australian orv, And live with the great and good of yore. * The sage's lore and thc poet's lay, The glories of empire pass away. The world's great drama will thus enfold, And yield a pleasure better than gold. Better than.gold is a peaceful horne, Whore all tho fireside charities oom? ; The sb.?ne of love, the heaven of life, Hallowed by m<?ther or sister or wife : . However humble the homo may be, Or tried with sorrow by Heaven's decree, The blessings that never were bought or sold. And centre there arc botter than gold. ,-- - THE FATAL CARD. SOME years ago the Mississippi River was famous for its "floating palaces," as the large steamers plying between New-Orleans and the port3 above were called. Those'fine hoats, were, in many ways delightful ; but they never ceased to be objects of dread to ..timid people, for there ? as sure to be ono or more en counters, between thc more lawless por tion of the travellers, in which pistol bullets would fly rather too thick for the comfort of a steady-going people. The cause of such disturbances was generally a quarrel over the gaming table. The regulation of the boats usually required that ail such amusements should be con ducted in a saloon provided for that pur pose in the officer's cabin, situated on the hurricane deck ; but thc sporting gentle men where by no means careful to ob serve this rule, and the gaming was most commonly carried on at the diuiog-table, in the main saloon of the steamer, to the great annoyance of two-thirds of those on board. Many professional gamblers used to make these boats their homes, traveling to and fro with, them, fleecing all who were foolish enough to fall in their clutch es. So well, indeed, was the system managed, that the-various members seem ed to have their different steamers marked out for them by common consent, so that no o' ' I trespass upon, the domain of th oilier. Of course these men were warm friends of the officers of the boat, who were too sincere in their friendship, to put a stop to the practice, rr too much afraid of the gamblers to car': to provoke a quarrel with them ; for in chose days it was a common affair for such men to re-' sent any fancied insult with a pistol shot. One of the most remarKable men of this class was named Daniel Sturdivant, a Frenchman, the son of a broken-down scion of nobility, who had settled in New Orleans before the transfer of Louisiana to thc United States. - Sturdivant had been reared a gentleman by his father ; but. on coming of age, andfhding his for tunes very bad. had taken to cards as a means to ' better them. His success in this field was so great thaine was induced to continue it. until at the time of which I write he was one of the most notorious gamblers between St. Louis and New Orleans. Ile was a man of fine personal appear ance, and of great physical strength. Ile was also noted for nis personal courage. As a gambler he was most expert and successful. : There were dark stories of deeds which he had committed while un der the influence of play and liquor; and it was said by some that he had killed half a.dozen men in his lifetime. Yet no one dared to speak those stories openly, for no one dared to bring upon himself the anger of such a man. About fifteen years ago, the time of which I write, he had attached himself to one of the magnificent steamers- plying between New-Orleans and Vicksburg, and had publicly annouueed to shoot any man who encroached .upon his scene ol' operations. Of course this left him un disputed possession of the field ; and he reaped a golden harvest during the one brief year he conducted his operations lhete. it was my lot at the time to be compell ed to make frequent trips between New Orleans and Vicksburg, being heavily en gaged in cotton speculations. I preferred the steamer of which Sturdivant had ta ken possession, inasmuch as it was not only the most comfortable, but also the swiftest, and time was of the utmost im portance to me. lt was known that I carried large sums of money, and I was also apprehensive lest Sturdivant should ask me to play. I had lid ly made up my mind to refuse him, and if hs attempted to draw me into ? quarrel, to shoot him without mer cy, asl knew that the only chance foi my life lay in getting the advantage of him. Strange to say he did not make any such proposition to me; and I gave him no chance to do so. One night we had started out from Vicksburg, and were heading merrily down the river, when Sturdivant 'came t'p to the group which had" gathered around thc stove. He had been drink ing, and was smoking a fine cigar as he approached. All made way for him. " Well, gentlemen," he said, in an un steady tone, "you seem to be terribly dull. Who wants to play for twenty dollars ?" ' There was no reply. All present seeme? to know the man, and no one cared to . volunteer to place himself in his clutches. " Umph !" he exclaimed, v/ith-an ex pression of contempt; "?fraid to try your luck with Dan Sturdivant, eh 1 Or nj ay be you want a little coaxing. Some of you must play with me. I can't stand such treatment. Come, let's see who it shall bc." He glanced around the crowd as if to select his victim. For the first time, I noticed thc gaze of one of the group fixed /steadily.upon him. He was a stranger io me, and was dressed in a plain suit of. homespun ; and his face was partially concealed by a broad-brimmed sombrero, which was drawn down over it. He was a small, but powerfully made man ; and In the decided expression of his w?ll sbap&d bead 1- read an' unusual "firmness and intensity of purpose. "Are you Daniel Sturdivant, the gam bler?" he asked, in a calm tone, without rising. Sturdivant flushed darkly and gave the stranger a keen glance. ""Some persona call me so behind my back," he said, insolently; " but no one would care to apply that term to me be fore my face." " Nevepthejesp," ?id the stranger, qui etly,. " I want an answer-?-yes pr no ?" " Well, then, ? am," said the gambler, angrily, "and what of it?" ? ".Simply this," replied the stranger; " I have heard it said that you claim to b9 the best cfird-pl&ygr fe tho South. I West. I.have come two hundred miles to prove ^you a liar." Sturdivant strode forward a step or two, and thrust his hand into his breast, as if to grasp a weapon. "Stop'."said the stranger. u If you shoot me, you will simply prove your self afraid of me. . Take your seat at the table, and 1 will soon make my words good." There was something in the calm, stern manner of the stranger that seemed to render the gambler powerless. He hesi tated a moment, and then said, bullying ly, " I never play with a man whose" face I cannot see." " Never mind my face," said the stran ger ; " if you are not afraid of losing, you shall see it when I have done with you." " But how do I know that you have money for such sport ?" persisted Sturdi vant. " You look seedy enough, my fine fellow." " There !" said the stranger, producing a roll of bank-notes; "I have ten thou sand dollars there. If you can win it you shall do so." With an oath, Sturdivant placed him self at the table, and bade his challenger to do likewise. Those of us who had listened to this singular dialogue now gathered around the table, expecting to behold a scene of more than usual interest. The Stranger iiad not raised his hat-brim, and none o( us had seen his face, but we all felt, from his general air and manner, that Daniel Sturdivant had at last mel his match. It did not take lons to show us that the stranger was an unusually good play er. For an hour or more the playing went on in silence. The stakes were high, and the contest marked with rare skill. Sturdivant exerted himself as he had never done before ; but in spite of all his efforts, he lost steadily. By the expiration of the time indicated above, he had lost over two thousand dollar?. ? noticed the Hush upon his face deepen, and a strange light come into his ayes. At last, with an exclamation of tri umph, he drew towards Jii nv the heap of notes. " That was well done," said the stran ger. " You are an expert in cheating. But go on; lean beat you whether you play openly or dishonestly." Sturdivant said nothing, but dealt the cards again. The hand was played, and Sturdivant was about lo seize Hie stakes again, when the strauger laid down a card and checked him. The gambler uttered a sharp cry and sat motionless, with his eyes fixed or. the card, a worn and faded ace of hearts, with a dark stain across the face. Stur. divant's features worked convulsively as he gazed at it ; and the speciators gath ered more closely around the two, won dering at the strange scene. "In God's name, who are you V asked Sturdivant, with his eyes still fixed on the card. " Look at me," said the stranger,.quiet ly.' . - ? As if powerless to resist, Sturdivaw: raised this eyes to thc speaker. The- stranger raised his hat and sat looking at the trembling man, with eyes which blazed with fury. Sturdivant ut tered a groan and sank baok in his chair, with his face white and rigid. The stran ger with one sweep gathered up the mou ey from the table, and thrust it in his bosom. "The ace of hearts is an unlucky card for you, Daniel Sturdivant," he said, coolly: "you played it once when you thought it to your advantage. Now, beaven help you, for that play is return ed." As he spoke, he raised a pistol which we h.id not seen, and before we could stop him, aimed deliberately at the trem bling man,?and fired. The gambler fell heavily upon the table, a corpse-and the bright blood streamed over it, hiding the fatal card from sight. " Gentleman," said the stranger, rising to his feet as we stood paralyzed with horror at the dreadful scene, " that mau ruined my wife, and tried to murder me. I have been hunting him for ten years." He walked slowly by us down the. stairway to the lower deck. Just as the steamer touched at the landing, he sjnang ashore and vanished in the dark woods. I never l?arned the history of the mys terious affair, for the dead gambler was beyond all human questioning; and .1 never'saw thc stranger again; but I shall never forget the impression it made upon me at the time. Live Within Your Means. We dou't like stinginess. We don't like economy when it comes down to rags and starvation. We have no sym pathy with the notion that a poer man should hitch himself to a post and stand still, while the rest of the world moves forward. It is no man's ditty to deny himself every amusement, every luxury, every recreation, every comfort, that he may get rich. It, is no man's duty to. make an iceberg of himself, to.shut his eyes and ears to the sufferings of his fel lows, and to deny himself the enjoyment that results from generous actions, mere ly that he may hoard wealth for his heirs to quarrel about. But there is an econo m)r which is every map's duty, and which is especially commendable in thc man who struggles with poverty-an economy : which is consistent with happiness, and which must be practiced if the poor man would secure independence. It is almost : every man's privilege, and it becomes his duty to, Jive within his means; not to, but within them. Wealth does not make the man we admit, and should never bc ' taken into the account of our judgment 1 of men ; but competence should always ' be secured when lt can be by practice of 1 economy and self-denial to only a tolera- '' bl? extent. It should be secured not so 1 much for others to look upon, or to raise 1 us in the estimation of others, as to se- 1 cure the consciousness of independence, ' and the constant satisfaction which is de j rived from its acquirement and posses sion. AN Irishman a short time in this conn- ' try, was eating boiled green corn. After eating off all the corn he passed the cob ' back to the lady who sat at the head of 1 the table, saying, " Would you piase be 1 so kind as iq put some more beans oh * tho stick ?" ' Josh Billings correctly remarks: "Sue- * cess in. life iz very apt tew make us for- j get the time when we wasn't mucli. It iz just so with the frog on the jump ; he 1 kan't re me rober when he was a tadpole [ -but other folks kan,-* " Von night -de oder day, ven I vas t been avakc in my shleep. I hears som tings vat I tinks vas not jus right in my barn, und I ust out shu mps to bed, und . rim mit te barn out, und ven I vas dere coom I sees dat my big gray iron mare, be yas been tied fuse and runs^mit te ( stable off, and every p?dy who vii him i back bring I ust so much pay him as vot j i bia customary," ie A Fearful Story of Murder and Revenge* A shocking story of brutal m urde md swift lawless punishment, among jarty of miners travelling on foot ov< ;he Rocky Mountains to the Sweetwati ?nines, is reported in one of our Westei exchanges. Hess, a Frenchman, ai Armstrong, a Nova Scotian, had qua relied, but apparently became reconcile when Armstrong reopened the disagre ment, and threatened Hess for takii some of his tobacco. During that du the party entered a dangerous and dil cult canon, through which they worn along a narrow ledge of rock, sever hundred feet above the bed of the streai which ran along at the foot of thatfearf precipice. At the point of the greatest dange where the party had to travel in sing file, and several yards apart, Armstroi watched his opportunity to dodge behn a ledge of rock unobserved, and thus fi behind the others. Hess was the fir man in the file. As he drew near ti place where Armstrong was secreted, tl latter stepped forth and followed his coi pariions without seeming to notice hir Presently he knelt down as though to t his shoe, and Hess," unable to pass, sto ped within a few feet of him. The ne moment, turning about to pick up li bundle, which had been thrown ash upon the ground, by a sudden, change movement he seized the unsuspecth Frenchman ami hurled him over the edj of the terrible abyss. Some twenty or thirty feet down fro the luce of the precipice the wretch* mau lodged in the. branches of a scragg hemlock tree., which grew outofacrevii in the rocky wal!, and might from them have been rescued if assistance had bet nigh. But there was none. How.ll murderer could summon the hardihot to stoop down and watch the fall pf h victim from the dizzy height we cann imagine. Yet Armstrong did look dov the cliff, perhaps to assure himself th his murderous work, was. well done, ar saw poor Hess still desperately maintai mg his hold upon life, instead of lying shapeless mass at ihe bottom of tho cano The fiendish spirit manifested itself sti further. He got fragments of rock ar cast them down upon the poor man unt his lifeless body toppled over the yaw: ing abyss below ; then Armstrong aroi and pursued his journey. The whole aot was seen from a distant by another of the party, who was apa .hunting for game ; and after they had gt into camp at night he told the story, whe Armstrong was seized and charged wil the murder, and he did not deny it. , part of the company were in favor < taking him with them through to the-se tlements to be tried by thc civil author ties, but the majority wore determined t allow the murderer no chance for escap and so about an hour before midnigl Armstrong was conducted to thc top ( a cliff which rose like a wall to thc heigl of one hundred and eighty or two hur dred feet, half a mile in thc rear of th camp. Having bound his hands and fee they cast him over into the black abys: out of which no cry returned. Adventures of a Dressing Gowu. ? lady was anxious to make her bus band a present on the occasion of hi birthday, and it happening to fall in th w.nter she thought a dressing gown wolli be a most useful acquisition to his dc mestic comforts. So she went and pur chased a fine Persian pattern, one wei wadded. Not remem bering the cxac height of her husband, she thought it bes to purchase one rather too long, than twi short, to make sure of its usefulness The? day was wet, her husband returnet in the afternoon, and she presented hin with a new article of comfort; and hi fancied it indeed a great comfort after hi had put off his wet garments. But i was about ten inches too long. " Oh ! never mind," said the affection ate wife, " I can easily shorten it to sui you." They had a party in the evening, and were very merry ; and every one admir?e the beautiful dressing gown. After they had gone to bed the wind and rain mad* such a noise that the wife could not sleep ; her husband, however, snored musically. She arose without disturbing him-took the dressing gown and commenced her work, cut.tingoff about the. length of ten inches to make it suit her husband's stat ure and then went to bed again. In the morning she was up early to some ar rangements with the house-keeper, as several friends were expected to dinner that day. Scarcely had the lady left the room, when her sister-a good natured old lady win lived with them-stepped in on tip-toe, in order not to disturb the sleeper, touk thc dressing gown, and has tened to her own room, ont off about ten inches, as she knew it was too long the night before. An hour alter, the gentle man a"voke, and was now anxious to sur prise his affectionate 'wife. Ringing for the servant, he was tobi to take the dress ing gown to the .tailor and have it made shorter hy ten inches. The good wife was detained longer .than she expected ; and scarcely had the dressing gown re turned from the tailor's, when she came in the room. Her husband had just risen, and proposed now lo surprise his wife and enjoy his comfort. But how surprised was his better-hajf to sec hcrJiusband in a fine Persian pattern shooting jacket in stead of a comfortable dresshtg gown ! THE VICTIMS OF A' MANIAC.-A horri ble incident recently occurred in the City of Trebizoud, Turkey. In the space of :i few minutes seventeen victims fell un der the knife of a madman, each victim receiving but a single wound, which in nil cases was aimed at thc heart. The assassin commenced his butcheries at sight o'clock in the morning, armed with i knife sharpened on two edges, the blade i)f which was about six or seven inches in length. Having fastened thc knife to Iiis hand with a cord, keeping thc blade beneath ins arm, thus prepared he com mended walking slowly up the street; seizing his opportunity to stab every one whom he found within hi.s reach, ar J quickly conoealing his weapon after each murderous blow, left his surprised vic tims totally unconscious of the hand that lealt their death wound, and unable to ienounce the assassin. An end was finally ?ut tq the bloody work by a baker, who succeeded in felling the assassin to the ;arth with a well aimed blow from a reavy stick of wood, when he was im nediately seized, disarmed and handed )ver to the authorities. The excitement md horror created among thc entire pop ulation of Trebizoud was "sb great that he government was obliged to Hasten he execution, and aftei a summary trial he culprit was taken into the public i ?quare and beheaded in the presence of ? he whole population of the city. Ax UNGRATEFUL WIFE.-Mr. Patrick ! ^'Flaherty said that his wife was very ] mgratefiil, for " whin I married her she ladn't a rac t0 Pl,t 011 ner back, but now. ihe is covered with 'em." Who are Masons^ At a late Masonic celebration, the Rev. \lr. Alger declared that four qualifica ions were indispensiblcfor a good Mason, [first, he must be no scoffer, but a man if a reverential spirit; second, he must oe no dry poser, but a man of a living imagination; third, he must be no bigot, but a man of liberal mind ; fourth, he must be no selfish worldling, but a man of a generous -heart. Whether genuine Christian men, consistent American citi zens, have reason to fear and oppose Ma sonry, or to trust and befriend ir, the speaker thought would appear clearly enough from a glimpse at the chief'char acteristics impersonated in its worthy disciples. These characteristics he illus trated with some detail under four heads. First, every true Mason is a pilgrim in search of light, traveling toward the goal of his destiny. Secondly, every true Mason is a warrior, fighting for innocence and charity against every form of evil. Thirdly, every true Mason is a patriot, bound to love and serve his native land, pledged to revere her laws and promote her weal.. Fourthly, every true Mason is a spiritual architect, required to build an indestructible house of character out of the rude material of his being. Under the rollah outworks the moral edifice goes up, little by little, until it is complete. Then death tears off the scnffoldhg of flesh and bones, and the puce temple, not made with hands, mounts to God. A Had ?cal paper says .tho. -niggers in the Alabama convention were in excel lent spirits," and closed their service? by singing. '; We're goin to Hebin a relin an a rockin."
