An Aim. 1 Give me a man with an aim ; What ever the aim may be? . , Whether it'? wealth or whethtoifsfame, It matters not with me. Let him walk in the path of right, And keep his aim in sight, And work and play in faith always, With his eyes on the glittering light Give me a man who says, . I will do something well, And make the fleeting days A story of labor tell. . ; Though the aim lie has ho small, t It is better than none at all. ' With something to do the whole year through, He will uot stumble at all. Hut Satan weaves a iinare, For tho feet of those who stray, With never a thought of care Where the path may lead away. Th? man who has no aim, Not only leaves no name, When his life is done, but ten to one, He leaves a record of shame. Give me a man whose heart Ts filled with ambition's flre^ Who rots his mark in the star, And keeps roovinir higher and higher. Better te die lu the atrift, ? The hands with laboit;rife; r i Than to glide With the stream in an ldfe dream. Better to strive and climb, And never reach the goalv Than drift a.iong'with time-*- ,? An aimless* worthless aonl ; : j : Aye, better to climb ancTfall, Or sow, though the yield be small, Than to throw away, day after day,. 1 And never strive at all. SITTING IN TUE SUNSHINE ; OE, HEART MEDICINE. " To sit in the sunshine, calm and sweet, is an excellent thing for at invalid." These words met the eye of Mr. Stephen Strongway, as. he glanced over the pages of a book taken at random from the centre-table ia his wife's parlor. " To sit in the sunshine, calm and sweet. That would be a beautiful existence'','' indeed, even taken only in a physical sense of the word ; while to sit all the time, in mental sunshine-" Mr. Strongway dropped his head upon his hana, and a sigh stole al most unconsciously from his lips at the thought. He was worthy of his name-a strong man, mentally and physically, and with a contempt for weakness, in whatever form it was manifested. ? Mrs. Strongway was a delicate creature, loving, trustful and timid. She was overwhelmed by her hus band's contempt of weakness, and shrank from exhibiting^ her affection towarcr bim-> aid V?e'and *her chiP dren dropped under the chill which the shadow of his stateliness constant ly kept upon their home. Bot now Alicia- his "wire, was ill dying, and; hts ttonjhtf wert? turned to softer ?rs?^n?? a.pc?..the ssnt?ri??, *"' to sit in sunshine, calm, and sweet, is an excellent thing for an invalid," struck home to his inmost. soul. His wife had never had any sunshine of home, or of love, in which to'bask but he resolved it should be so no longer. Alicia's early home among the mountains was for sale, and, if she wished it, he would purchase the old home, as a summer retreat in future years, for herself and her chil dren. In future years ? Nay, what had the grave-faced family doctor -old him only that very day ? He dashed the tears impatiently from his eyes. The doctor must be mistakeu. Alicia could live ! It was not too late to repair the ravages his coldness and unkindness had made. Even as lie thought this, a hollow cough struck upon nia ear, and his wife crossed the hall and entered the parlor. " Alicia, he said gently, " you are very ill." She looked at him and her soft biown eyes filled with tears. " Yes, Stephen." And the brown eyes looked into his wistfully, as if saying : " Do you care ?" " You kn?w this, Alicia?" " I have known it for some time long before he discovered it, Stephen." The question was on his lips now : ''. Do you care, Alicia ?" The solr eyes filled once more. .'Oh. Stephen, I dread to leave you and our dear children. I have loved you so ! I may say it now without offending you, now that you know I am dying." "God forgive nie!" he cried. "Have 1 then, been so unkiml that you have feared to tell me of ? your love till now ?" ,: You have not been unkind, Ste phen," siie hastened to say, " only 1 think men do not quite understand :i woman's heart, some tiroes. It is so necessary for us to love, and be loved, and to show that, love, Stephen, and to have it shown, that-" 'That-I see it all uiv darling, .im! know now exactly l,fiw prent he mischief is, aid how it ktc't.eea rln^e," said ber husband clasping her to his heart. "Forgive me my darling. We will go from here, at once, ro your old home, where we fust knew and loved each other: and I will see il I cann?t bring the lost roses back to these ctVeJcs. the lost light beek to those d^ir l+own eyes. Kiss me.' Alicia, and von shall -sit in sunshine caira and --.wet" in future years. ?:' ! : have til-.' ; o ver to bring it. about ymir path. , . i ? , He ker't his word. And did Alicia die? On the ....ntiwy, she disgraced htrf physician forever by growing >trong mid v. -il. ami-healthy and happy, ?ti the calm ewt-et sunshine of her hus band's lov?-. It never wanted again. And sh?: and her children have lost all their tear of him, in thia strange^ ly altered sf:|te of things : while all who have business dealings with hi rn - of late, can scarcely recognize the once stern and haughty, andy masterf ul man. ." To sit in sunshine calm andsweet," is, indeed " good.for an invalid." It is good for all." Readef; if '' in '-that " blessed heart-sunshine you sit to day, thank God humbly for the gift ; for. some there are' on whose darkened paths no ray .?bf radiance, no glare? of true affection ever falls. By the Mobile Register: " Several mornings since, a gentleman residing -HO ,matter where-?bongjit a fine turkey in the Southern market, and ordered it sent to his home, mention ing the number, as we will gay, 46 is a few doors from our friend's house, and is occupied by. a very pretty and dashing widow of limited means. A little later in the morning, Mrs.--* r? had occasion to go to the market for ; some celery, when the following con fab ensued : Market mau : 1 How did : j'ou like that turkey ?' Mrs--.-' \ '? What turkey ?' Market-man: * Whv, i ine one -your. husband ?ought and ! i .geat home, to No.; j 46. Wasn't ^e < .number right ?'

At dinner her husband saia : 'My dear, will you have some of the roa3t heef ?' Mrs* _: ?No, I'll tate turkey.' Hils; band : 41 don't see any turkey. Where is it?' Mrs.;-: 'Why, it's ra No. 46, just where you sent it, and you bed better go right there inov?; ?nd-1'-get your dinner.' .The blushes of the culprit were hidden hy a ecene which occurred at this juncture. His ph)Bician says he doesn't think the mark o? the plate will remain permanently over his eye, but all the efforts of dermatology will never restore hair that has been removed by boiling coffee. Served him.tight He should follow Sams advice, aud beware of vidders."J A Woman on the War Path. [From the Rochester (AT. Y.) Democrat.] Qu Saturday .evening, W. Trescott, a yxjungdentist af 'Macedon, ?eceived ?onje nujjfety odd'blows frqm/a raw hide in the hands bf a young lady he .hpdtjilted. The dentist, three years ago, opened an office in a building which contained.- two sisters,,- who oc cupied rooms as; dress makers. J An acquaintance followed, then the den I tist began payingtpecial attention to a pretty seamstress who worked for ' toeisisters; -andfinally tbeynverfc en gaged. Christmas was to be their wedding day, and in making rangements the lover went eo far as to accompany his fiancee to this city and to assist her in the selection of her trousseau. Soon after the dentist suddenly disappeared. It seems he went to Wisconsin, where he married another. Last week he returned with his bride, apparently perfectly unconcerned about the broken en gagement and-the blighted affections of the young lady he had dented. He reappeared in his office, and there on Saturday he received a visit from the seamstress. She asked him for" a reason for his conduct," and fol: a letter^ of1 her s'iii his possession. He made an insulting answer, when the young lady seized a window shade rod and rushed toward him. He re treated into a closet, and thence through a window upon the roof of a shed, and so to the street. This slight encounter soon became known, and as everybody .sympathized with the young lady, there was not want ing those who encouraged her in her Surpose of chastising the heartless enlist In the evening he was seen on the street, and immediately poe I sued by the seamstress, who nal armed herself with a rawhide. He entered a drug store, and retreating to a back room held the door from the inside. Half the ripple, of th. .vill?ge followed into the store, the r?oot.w^ai pi^ediintf'aiicj a)c?tjjb which tne^gdiv*'. "fad gra^perr wis, taken from him. The seamstress then beat him about the head and face with the rawhide tilVher strength failed,-and she fainted from exhaustion. The dentist contented himself with shield ing his face with his arms as well as he was able," and then bore his pun ishment like a martyr. He is a lit tle man, and probably thought it better to fall into the hands of the forsaken fair one than of the jeering crowd who looked on. The people of the village all speak of the good character of the young lady, and agree that the dentist was properly punished. [Fcomthe New fork Times, Jan. 25.] Slavery Indemnification. The cable announced yesterday that the committee of the Spanish Cortes on the abolition of slavery in Porto Rico had recommended 140, 000,000 of reals as the gross indem nity to be paid to the slave owners. A. cable dispatch .of this morning j slates that the average indemnity to tie owners is $250 per slave. A6 140,000,000 of paper" reals, or rsal vellons. are equal to $7,000,000, the number of slaves to be enfranchised in Pcjrto Rico nuist-ampunt to:28,000 According to the cens?a of 1866, they numbered 31,000. In Cuba, at the time of the enumeration of 1857, there were over 370,000 slaves. Sup pose that there remain 300,00? whose freedom has to be purchased, the money required fir this purpose, ac cording to the Porto Rico average, would be $75,000,000. When, we try to discover where this money is to come from, the probable amount of protest necessary to drive Spain into negro enfranchisement in Cuba be comes rather formidable. THE PRESIDENT AND CABINET TO SWING AROUND TUE :>OI'TIIERN CIR CLE.-The President to-day assured a delegation of Georgians that after the business of Congress was over, he should, in company with the mem bers of his Cabinet, make an extend ed Southern tour, proceeding to New Orleans via Richmond, Raleigh, Co lumbia, Charleston, Savannah, Mont gomery and Mobile.
