AND FUTURE.
=, no sad, regretful tears,
es and joys that early metdecav;
not weep for girlhood's gladsome
years,
. That glided Uko a pleasant dream away.
I heave no sighs, no deep, heart-broken
sj-^as.
O'er hopes thut blighted earl v, faded fast;
J raise to Heaven no complaining cries,
As memory to the present brings. he past.
The poetry of love, sweet love, I know,
ijong since its cares and disappointment
knew;
As sitadoW8 did they come. as shadows go,
ve boer, in sunshine, and in shadow too.
? know the hand, the great Almightv
hand,
That moves the mighty universe it made;
-Blotted the fair designs ambition planned,
And in tho gravo my earthly treasures
laid.
"Wisdom can seo tho end, and wisdom
knew,
Tho better why I did tot care to know ;
Showed mo my path ray and my life
work too,
When in thc dust sho laid my idols low.
Showed me a cross, the cross that I must
bear,
Nor e'er when weary, wayworn, lay it
down ;
. And said it must be so, if I would wear
_ A crown of life, a fair and fadeless ci o ?\n.
. I thought tho way alonely, tiresome way,
The cross too heavy to be always borne ;
I thought a heart whose hopes had met
decay,
Must be so desolate and so forlorn.
I took tho cross, tho heavv cross with
dread,
To love, ambition, hopo, I bado adieu,
-Henceforth a cross lo bear, a path to tread,
Unborne, untrodden only by a few.
A chango has come, a pleasant, happy
change,
I scarco know when it came, I scarce
know how ;
-V -?Tis like some mystery both deep and
strange,
The cross is changed, the way not tire
some now.
'Tis still tho way, the straight and up
ward way,
A narrow and at times a thorny road;
The cross though lighter still 1 bear each
day.
And 'neath its weight am climbing up to
God.
But there aro flowers, fair sweet-scented
flowers,
Scattered along thc pathway that I go;
Me thiuks they drop from Eden's sonny
bowers,
They do not bloom on earthly sod I know.
Some buds, sweot buds, just ready now
to ope,
And full blown roses on my path are
strown,
Love's roses these and thoso tho buds 01
Hope,
Which buu and bloom in Paradise alone.
A bow, the bow of promisespans my sk}',
Its brilliant hues with beauty can adorn ;
darksome cloud that often hovers
nigh,
And otherwise would overcast my morn.
A voice, a tender, loving voice I hear,
That whispers of a future home and rest;
'Tis distant music wafted to my ear,
On heavenly gales from mansions of the
blest.
I see a hand, an ever helpful hand,
That though I'm weary forward beckons
me;
Points to that city in a far off land,
Whose spires and domes at times I dimly
see.
Sweet home! sweet rest! my home an?
rest are there,
There tho dear friends I loved so long
and well ;
With them that home, that rest I soon
shall share.
And in the paradise of love shall dwell.
Cr? friend more dear than earth's best
friend I'll see.
And e'en at mention cf bis name will bow;
His life and death give endless life to me,
And bought a crown of life to deck my
brow.
And now the past is not a mourned for
past,
The present hath its streams of pleasure
pure;
The future's joys note?rth-born joys will
last ;
The crown of lifo is fadeless and secure.

The Smali Worries.
The Christian world has long been
ue?sing what Paul's thorn in the
esh was. We have, a book that in
ten pages tries to show what Paul's
ora was not, and in another ten
If?'s^T?ies to show what it was.
Many of the theological doctors
have felt Paul's pulse to see what
was the matter with him. We sup
pose the reason he did not tell us
what it was, may have been because
ho did not want us to know, ile
knew that if he stated what it was,
there would have been a great many
people from Corinth bothering him
with prescriptions as to how he might
cure it.
Some say it was diseased eyes, soire
that it was a humped back. It may
ov?"b??7i neuralgia. Perhaps it was
ut, although his active habits and
a sparse diet throw doubt on the sup
position. Suffice it to say it was a
r thorn-that is, it stuck him. It was
pharp.
'2 It was probably of not much ac
count in the ey PS of thc world. It
frtras not a trouble that could be com
[.pared to a lion, or a boisterous sea.
' lt was like a thorn that you may
rhave in your hand or foot and no one
know it. Thus we see that it le
jtaomes a type of those little nettle
worries of life that exasperate
the Bpirit.
Every one has a thorn sticking him.
The house-keeper finds it in unfaith
ful domestics; or an inmate who
keeps things disordered ; or a house
too small for convenience, or too small
kept cleanly. The professional
linds it in perpetual interrup
iotiBor calls for " more copy." The
' ???ii-school teacher finds it in in
centive scholars or neighboring
achers that talk loudly and make a
great noise in giving a little instruc
tion. One man has a rheumatic joint
which, when the wind is northeast,
lifts tie storm signal. Another, a
business partner who takes full hali
the promts, but does not help to earn
them. These lilals are the more net
tlesome because like Paul's thorn

To p?ul the thorn was as dis

I have been a practical dispeptik
for 27 years and four months, and it
would have been munny in my pock
et ii I had been born without enny
stummuck.
I have prayed upward of one thous
and times to be on the inside like an
ostrich, or a traveling colporter.
I have seen traveling colporters
who could eat as much as a goose.
I have seen a goose eat till they
could not stand up enny more, and
then set down and eat sum, and then
roil over aud eat sum more.
1 have tried living on filtered wa
ter and goiug barefoot iorthe dispep
shy aud that didn't hit the spot.
I have soked at water cure estab
lishments until I wus so limber that
I kouldn't get myself bak again in
side ov my Baldwin apparel.
I bought a saddle horse once, who
was got up expressly to kure the dis
pepshy in 90 days or kill the horse.
He was warranted to trot harder
than a trip-hammer, pull wusser on
the bits, and stumble safer down hill
than enny other boss on the fut stool.
I rode the hess until I was ov a
jelly, and then sold him bridle and
all, for sixty-eight dollars, and got
sued * . th-? purchaser, and had tc
pay ?iJi 00 dollars and some sents
damage because the hoss had the
"Kimshys," a disseaze I knu nothing
about.
The hess and fixings cost me 450
dollars in gold.
I kontracted eleven cords of hick
ory wood, kross grained, and as phull
ov wrinkles as au old cow's horn and
sawed away three months on it and
the pile seemed to grow bieger every
day.
I finally gave away the saw and
what wood there was left to save my
life and Ba" down discouraged, a
square victim to the everlasting dis
pepshy.
I have lived at the seaside and
gamboled in the saline flood until I
was az a number one salt mackrol.
I have dwelt at Saratoga, and tak
en the water like a mill-race and still
the dispepshy.
I have walked 2 miles before break
fust, and then et a slice ov dry toast
and half of yelk of a pullet's eg, and
felt all the time az weak az a kitten
that has just cum out ov a fit.
I have laid down more than 2 thou
sand times, and rolled over once a
minnit ail night long, and got up in
the morning like a korpse, and there
didn't nothing seem to ail me enny
where in particlar.
I have read whole libarys on the
stumtnuck and liver, and when I got
thru, I knu a great deal less what
was the matter of me than when I
begun.
1 hav drunk whiskee with roots in
it enough 'to carry off any bridge or
saw-mill dam in the country.
I have worked on a farm for my
vitiles and board, and dieted on fried,
pork and ri bread until I was as thin
as the sermon ov a 7 day Baptist
preacher.
I have dun all these things, and
10 thousand other things just a3 ri
dikulus, and I have got the old dis
pepshy yet just as thick as the pim
ples on a four year old goose.
If you get a good holt ov the dis
pepshy once, you can't never lose it
entirely ; it will .cum around once in
a while like a ghost, and if,, it. don't
scare you so much az it did^nj?e, and
make you think you are going to die
to-morrow, it will make you feel just
HS sorry.

It was a respectable looking color
ed man who brou "ht his washing
home.
" Your wife is a good washerwo
man, isn't she ?" said the young bach
elor to the polite and obsequious man.
" Yaas sir ; she commonly always
gives satisfaction," replied the hus
band of the laundress.
" Well," resumed the young bach
elor, in his blandest and most insin
uating manner, " you can tell your
wife that I esteem her very highly
as one possessing many womanly and
Christian virtues-a domestic gem
aud household ornament-a social lu
minary and moral beacon-an ex
exemplary Christian-a gentle, lov
ing wife-a washerwoman among
10,000, and altogether lovely ; but
there's one objection."
" What's dat, sar," enquired the
?smiling African, who had been show
ing two rows of spotless ivory and
a cavernous opening of the head while
his wife was being so extravagantly
eulogized.
" Whut's dat, boss?"
" She put3 all the starch in my
socks, and none in my shirts ; she
washes or irons all the buttons off,
;ind forgets to replace them ; ex
changes my clothes for those of some
other patron, and if you'll look at
this (holding up a garment,) you'll
see how inconvenient it would be to
wear either pantaloons, cuffs or col
lars with such a shirt as she sends
me. It may be that she cuts off the
sleeves and collar to make the tail
longer, but I can't see what the deuce
she should want to ruffle the edges
for !"
The darkey looked a little disgust
ed as he wrapped the garment up to
take it home, and he only said : " Idea
sendin' a man dat kin' o' shirt !"
Snake stories are generally suppos
ed to be synonymous with pure fic
tion, but the one which a Pennsylva
nia wood-chopper relates is vouched
for as true in every particular. Mr.
Allen Rogers resides on the Blue
Mountains, about three miles from
Reading, and his son, a little boy of
eleven summers, has lately been in
the habit of leaving his father's house
e.ery morning and not?eturning till
noon. The parents of the boy ques
tioned him several times as to where
he went, but they could get no satis
factory answer, and so the father fol
lowed his son one morning last week,
and saw him enter the woods about
half a mile from the house, where he
seated himself upon a . rock. Soon
the father was horrified at seeing a
monster black snake crawl upon the
rock and put its head on the boy's
lap. The father states that the snake
was the largest he ever saw, being
fifteen feel, long and as thick as his
arm. The boy had taken bread with
him and was feeding the snake, which
at short intervals, would st ck a large
tongue out as if hissing for more to
e*t. Then it wouid coil itself aroiuid
the n?ick and body of the boy. and
play with the boya hands. As the
terrified father i unit du? leave hw
boy with his deadly cutupauion he
Bick, and tue snake, hearing j
t once uncoiled itself and i
body hom the rock and
looked in all direction?, and then it
returned to the boy's lap, aud the
father returned home and awaited
il.e boy's return, which was, as usual,
at noon. When told that he had
been seen playing wirb the snake, the
boy said the first morning he met the
snake he liked to play with it ; then
he took it. food, and he was so much
pleased with his companion that some
thing told him that he rams meet the
::uake every morning. One morning
he said he was late, and when he
reached the place the snake was
standing up, and it came out to meet
him, then followed him to the rock.
Next morning the father and two of
thc neighbors went to the place with
guns, and at the usual time the
snake made its appearance, when
all fired at one time, killing the char
mer.
Hon. Thomas H. Hendricks made
a speech at Zanesville, Ohio, lately,
in which, in speaking on the financial
question, he said: 81 The general par
alysis of business and employment
and the distrust of useful investments
because of shrinkage in values, as
well as the condition of our currency,
have brought about differences of
opinion among Democrats. I think
these differences may be adjusted. I
have heretofore expressed the opinion
that a wise statesmanship may avoid
the extremes of a contracted curren
cy, cramping enterprises and labor on
the one hand, and ot' an inflated and
depreciated currency on the other;
that they are the extremes of glut
tony and starvation, and health and
strength will come of neither. I
have an unshaken confidence that the
national council of our party will so
adjust these differences as to main
tain our ancient doctrine in favor of
a sound and stable currency, shaping
our politics in accordance thereto,
with a return to specie payments al
ways in view, and at the same time
avoiding the disasters which would
immediately follow contraction."
THE NEW BELL FOR INDEPENDENCE
HALL.-Mencely & Kimberly of this
city, who are making a bell of 13,000
pounds for the tower of old Inde
pendence Hall in Philadelphia, have,
upon application to Gen. Magner, and
upon endorsement of the War De
partment, received permission to se
lect several cannon from those now
in store at the Watervliet Arsenal, to
be cast in the bell. The selection
will be of cannon which did service
in the Union and rebel armies during
the late civil war. It is the purpose
of the donor of the bell (Henry Sy
bert of Philadelphia) and of the au
thorities of that city to have the bell
in position in Independence Hall tow
er duly 4, 1776. It will thus have
both a national and centennial sig
nificance-that of a country grown
in a century from a Union of thirteen
States to thirty-eight, and a popula
tion increased from 4,000,000 to 40,
000,000. TLe object of the special
cannon used in the casting of this
bell will be to carry out the idea of
peace, in the blending of North and
?South, and quite in keeping with the
spirit of one of the Bible inscriptions
which will be cast i -on the bell
" Glory to God in the highest, and on
earth peace, good will toward men."

In the report of the Interview with
Gov. Chamberlain which we publish
ed last week, that gentleman says :
"I confess, however, that I am not
so much interested in what is past |
and gone as I am in what is present
and coming."
In that expression the Governor
sets the precedent that tne omcfels-wf-|
one administration are not interested
in punishing the rascals who? have
robbed and disgraced the State un
der a previous administration. In
other word?, if the officials of Mr.'
Chamberlain's administration should
prove equally as great rascals as those
under Moses, the succeeding admin
istration would not feel any interest
in bringing them to justice. If that
course is to be followed, we see no
chance for punishing official rogues,
but on the other band it seems like
