Drifting with the Tide. Many <i wieck on the shcnils we see, As along lite'* voyage we glide; They had launched on the wave without anchor or oar, And drill along with the tide. Living, unci yet with no purpose to gnin, And trusting that others would guide, They sought but the pleasure the present can give, And drilt along with the tide. Our ltiture awaits us, lor evil or good, ?no inr tihnsilf innst decide, Let each flrnily stand for truth anil tho right, Nor drilt with the wind and the tide. And il we would anchor at last trom the storm? At last with the true and th? tried? Then steadily row lor the evergreen shore, Xor drilt with the wind and the tide. "MI NIECE FLOEENCE." I never will marry her, ILirry, and she may as well set her heart at rest upon t'.mt subject. I don't wish to deprive her of the fortune, but as neither of us can have it alone or in part unless shared with the other, why, she will have to forego it, as I shall. What a confounded * I 1 ~ C ly stupid will tins aoiins om uui-ib m mine did make! I wonder if we could not get it set :iside on the ground of his insanity or incompetency.'1 "I don't see that you would be benefited in doing so. "S'ou don't need the fortune, and the world's condemnation would f:ill upon you for an attempt in which you probably would not succeed." " Well, 1 have no thought of attempting it. 1 simply will not marry the girl, ami then tlie long catalogue ol benevolent institutions named in the will can divide the fortune among themselves." "But how can you decide that jou will not marry her:' You have never seen her, have you ?" "Never, and do not wish to see her." "Hut perhaps she will save you the trouble of declining her hand, by first signifying her own refusal of the advantages attached to the proposed marriage. I think I would have the grace to give the lady an opportunity of first accepting or declining the propositions of the will." "True, perhaps I ought, and I will wait until the year granted us for reflection and decision draws to a close, to see if she will forestall me in a refusal. But there is no danger of that, Waltham. She, a little country girl, brought up, as 1 have been told, in narrow circumstances and entire obscurity, will be glad to grasp at such a fortune?" "And such a husband. I suppose you would add, if you dared,"said Waltham, laughing, yet looking admiringly upon the handsome face and line person of his triend Derby. "But tell me if the attractions of some charmer, met in your late travels, have not contributed to the philosophical eagerness with which you are ready to decline a noble fortune? If it lie so, surely the lady will have ample evidence of your disinterested attachment to herself." Derby reddened and turned away. His friend had proposed a home question, and one that he was not quite ready to answer, inasmuch as he had been guarding a secret and silent love in his heart for months?a love that, until it was breathed to its object, bethought far too sacred to be whispered to another. Waltham regarded his friend for a moment with amazement. Ilis question had been a random one, and it was only by chance that he had elicited the secret so long and successfully hidden. Alter gazing thus, with astonishment depicted upon his face, he uttered a low, prolonged whistle, indicative of the puzzled condition of bis thoughts, and strode from the room. Derby was left alone to his thoughts. Before him lay the letter of his dece;isea uncle's attorneys, received a week previous, which informed him of the provisions of the will that made his possession of the large fortune involved dependent upon Ins marriage with the old man's " niece, Florence, the only daughter of my beloved sister, Caroline," according to the wording of the document, " within one year from the date of my decease; and, in case either party declines such marriage, then the aforesaid bonds, mortgages, real estate, bank and railroad stock, etc.. etc., to be equally, share and share, divided among the institutions, or their trustees, hereinafter named." The vision of a fair face, framed in floating, chestnut curls, of eyes of deep violet hue, tender and appealing, of a orm of fairy lightness and grace, a being clothed in all the attributes of beauty to his eye, rose constantly between him and that hateful document. Not for the wealth of the Indies, not for whole streets of houses, nor for whole fleets of ships, would be yield the chance of winningthe fair girl who, three months before, had crossed his pathway only to disappear. lie had met her at Lynn Beach, with her invalid mother. The visitors were few. and thus so dependent upon each other as tomimrlein unusual sociability, lie h:id early been introduced to Flora Hastings and her mother, and though he knew nothing of them, except a few most Mattering remarks uttered by the . departing friend who had mingled the introduction with his farewells, he had often thought since that they seemed to De much better informed respecting himself. But he settled the matter in his own mind by the very agreeable supposition that they had heard of him from some friend who had passed a winter in New York, where his social successes bud iriven him a verv r>]p!Lsin<r notoriety. Not one word of love had passed between Miss Hastings and himself, though there had been some eloquent glances on his part that called the bri<rht blush he loved to see to the lady's fair cheek, when she was suddenly summoned with her mother to the death-bed of an uncle. So sudden had been their departure, that Derby, who was taking a morning stroll upon the beach, knew nothing of it until they were miles away. Mrs. Hastings had left a note for h!.n, with some books that he had lent to herself and daughter; but though the volumes reached him wifely, the note, through the carelessness of the servant to whom it was intrusted, was lost And Derby was thu9%;ft in uncertainty in regard to their wishes for tile continuance of the acquaintance, and without the knowledge of their address. Flom Hastings seemed to have vanished <\.,a 1 i uu"i i.y li win titia uutiu, uuc iic was uutermined to search for her, to lay liis heart at her feet. But month after mouth passed away, and Derby was unsuccessful in his s<Mich for .Miss Hastings. Not once had the ungenerous-, suspicion ciossed his mind that she was not all that he had first supposed her to he, though his friend Walthani, to whom he had at . length confide^ his secret and his perplexity, had once ventured to hiift that she, together with her mother, must have had some discreditable re:ison for concealing from him tiieir place of resilience. lie would not. believe the omission to be accidental, ignored the possibility that the lost note might have supplied the desired knowledge, and, with that harsh judgment of women too common among mm of the world, was ready to attribute their silence to some unworthy motive. His hint however, was received by !>crl?y with such a storm of rage that ho had no inclination to repeat it. But lie did not lend his aid toward the search with sufficient good will to vender it availing. He regarded it as i^uixoue, ann oeueveu mat n a consummation wore long enough delayed,Derby would become discourgedand accept the bride and tiie fortune proffered by his uncle's will. He calculated upon the proverbial fickleness of his sex. But Derby was iUJwle of other stuff than the mere danders of fashion, male coquettes, and his heart was true to its lirst devotion. At leneth the time approached when, by the terms of his uncle's will, the marri.ign must be concluded or declined. He fo'lt thar, as a gentleman, he owed some attention to the lady named in the words of the testator, "my niece Florence." lie resolved to write to'her, but here a nr.v difficulty arose. lie did not know t!r- lady's surname. It was not men ti< : ?! in the copy of the will which had Ijtvii forwarded to hini, nor in any of the letters of the attorneys, Messrs. Pounce an;! Tape. Nor had he ever, as he could re: ii cm her, lieard the name previous to his ancle's death. Mr. Derby, the testatoi. was the halfbrother of our friend's father, and younger by some years. His mother jiad a daughter by a previous marriage, wiio was the "sister Caroline" mentioned in the will, but as she bore no relation to the father of our young friend, who had seldom seen her in his father's ! linnsp lin lrnpvr little of lier. and had j J scarcely ever named her to his son. And ! I this accounts for Derby's ignorance oi j T I her name and residence. , Pre He wrote to Messrs. Pounce and Tape, 1 ing ! requesting the young lady's name and ! froi address. The reply contained the :id- Stai dress but not the name, the attorneys stol not comprehending his ignorance of so gre: essential a fact, impatiently lie wrote the; again, and this time the answer was a. pi j written by a clerk. Messrs. Pounce and thei | Tape were both out of town, for the lan; summer vacation. Another delay; and thr< ; when the dose of the week brought no gua i letter, Derby's feverish impatience had moi j risen to such a height that lie resolved to , reqi : proceed at once to the town where his elot ! uncle had lived. lie knew that the , mat | "sister Caroline" did not reside there, : resi ( but expected to be able to discover her nnd j name from some source. chil He started accordingly, and, as if to stol fill the climax of this game of cross-pur-; j poses, the letter of Mr. Pounce, contain- j P mg the desired information, passed him j the I on the way. ; S:*tl I Arrived, he went at once to the office ; c0.:t of the attorneys, and was so fortunate as wit i to find Mr. Tape there, who had been ?f * called unexpectedly to town by some j hav pressing business. He stated his busi- j ness to the smiling attorney, and received . J)01' for his answer that the ladies, mother)1S t J anil daughter, were in town; that he | suh purposed calling upon them at their ho- | day j tel as soon as he had dined, and would usei be happy to accompany and introduce J11'.'1 1 Mr. Derby to them. j y.ru " 1 :un very sorry," said Mr. Tape, 11011 | "that you should have boon so annoyed, 1 P':w 1 sir. Of course, we could not suppose j con i you ignorant of the name of the young S 00:11 i lady?your cousin. Is she not? Alt, i tlirt continued the voluble attorney, " only a as 11 1 connection by marriage! I comprehend. ! i And so you have nerer seen her!

( i Do I understand you quite rightly?" j jJ!.Dl ; j ejaculated Derby, who only found "his 1; tongue at the close of the lawyer's j liatl harangue,' for he had been stricken with ~ 1 amazement at mention of the name j M Florence Hastings! Could she be the : ^Tv1 Fiont he had known? As he asked him- ,''js 1 self this question, a dread quenched the i j joy of his hope, and his heart ce.ised to j ?? j beat, while he grew pale with fear. I r ('v j Mr. Tape was profuse in his offers of P01/ 1 service, and pressed Mr. Derby to home with him and seek some repose, |: r" ?cvious to calling upon the ladies. But j Derby's previous impatience brooked I j : no sue 11 delay, it was linany ueciuuu i J that the two gentlemen should dine L. ! ?t a restaurant, and that, as by that time I .. I the hour appointed for Mr. Tape's visit i to the ladies would have arrived, the I * j two should proceed together to the hotel. I f i "And while I am talking to the E ; mother, sir," said Mr. Tape, "you will i ^ej have ample time to become acquainted I ^ _ with Miss Hastings?a beautiful crea- i i ture, sir. beautilul! Really, if it were i I not for Mrs. Tape and oursix interesting I q ! children. I should be inclined to envy j q]^ ! y?u' sir-" ! atio "But, perhaps,"faltered Derby, whose | seve ! hopes and fears had lisen to agony by i rigo j this time, " perhaps the lady may not any accept me. I do not wish the fact as- subj J sumed that I am to be the fortunate hun | possessor of such charms.

Proud* Young men out of business are sometimes sadly hampered by pride. Many, young men who go West take more pride than money, and bring back all the.pridd and no money at all. A young man that ' " works for his board," no matter what I honest work he does, has no reason for shame. A young man who cuts the bread of idleness, no matter how much' money he has, is disgraced. Ail young , men startjng in life ought to aim?first of | all?to find a place where they can earn I their bread and butter with hoe, ax,. \ spade, wheelbarrow, curry-comb, blacking-brush?no matter how. Independence first. The bread and butter aucs- _ tion settled, let the young man perform I his duty so faithfully us to attract, and I let him constantly keep his eyes open for >' a chance to do better. About half the poor, proud young men, and two-thirds \ the poor, discouraged young men, are al- ?< ways out of work. The youngman who * pockets ins pnae,. ana curries an upper ? lip as stiff as a cast-iron doorstep-scraper, jj need not starve, and stands a goodchance " to become rich. , 4 illalnrla Dlwuined of Its Terror* " Malaria, that fell atmospheric poison, is disarmed ol its terrors, and health insured to thousands residing where the-noxious exhalo^ I tion periodically infects the air, and engenders intermittent and remittent levers, by Itoslot- jj ter's Stomach Bitters, the most popular, as it u is the best, of preventives, alteratives and _ tonics. In numberless localities, where the demand lor sulphate ?t quinine was formeflyinrmense, the hurtful alkaloid has been almost h( entirely supplanted by this sate, agreeable and p, effective substitute, which is genial in action >u and unobjectionable in flavor. It nullifies the $ influence ol miasma by giving a more active p impulse to every vital function, quickening '*j and enriching the blood, overcoming a tendency to biliousness, and promoting digestion, it A f'irKt-Cla.s? Institution. Tho Wealeyau Academy at Wilbraham, Mass., is one ot the oldest and mast popular institutions in the country. Its buildings, grounds, facilities for instruction, and all; its i other appointments are among the finest in the world. Few institutions can boast of such a long history of educational efficiency.
