Be it a doubt? all doubts bo solves
Qaostions which thought in vain revolves,

Be it a fear? He has the balm,
Which every human fear will calm;

All loases he makea good.
In every losa thoro is aomo gain,
Some need of grace in every pain;
Leave it to Godt

Bo it the heavy weight of guilt?
The blood of Christ was freely spilt,
And ein atoned by blood.
Be it the littleness of faith?
Ask and be full, tho promise saith;

FESTINA LENTE.
BY 3. B.
Two men Bat in tho private office of
one of our largest dry goods houses,
holding a lor g and confidential conversa?
tion.
"There is no nae talking, "Will, my
mind is made np," exclaimed the younger
of the two. "I om not going to bo
plodding along in this hum-drum style.
Why, man, this is the way my grand?
father lived and acted; always keeping
that careful little piece of Poor Richard
wisdom directly in his mind, 'Take caro
of the pence, and the pounds will take
oare of themselves.'"
"Did not your grand-father livo to a
good old age, and leave a handsome
property behind him for his heirs?"
"Yes. I must say the rulo worked
very well with him; yet ho deuied him?
self many pleasures, that I mean to
enjoy, and toiled his life long, for tho
few thousands, of which ho died pos?
sessed. I tell yon, Will, that sort of
here-a-little and thero-a-little doctrino,
bas passed away for people who are up
to snuff. And to think that I have been
living thus for thirty-five years, puts mo
out of patience with myself.".
"Well, I have lived so for forty years,
and expect to continuo the same habits
to the end; never doubting but that I
shall make a comfortable support."
"Yon astonish me, Will; a man of
your business capacity and facilities to
talk as you do. I wish to God I could
command your means; I'd uot talk of a
'comfortable support'-nothing short of
absolute independence would satisfy me.
If I had your facilities, in less than
five years I wouldn't give a snap for any
man'e favor."
"lam onrious to know, Ralph," said
the elder gentleman, "how you would go
about achieving so Budden an 'independ?
ence. Give me a few points, and if I
can avail myself of them, perhaps I
may tum out a John Jacob Astor my?
self some doy. Who knows?"
"I see you are disposed to 6nub my
opinions, - but that don't alter their
utility. You doubtless pity me, Will;
and, from my heart, I am euro I pity
you, throwing* away such opportunities
as you have. Why, my friend, don't
you see that everything is ohaDged?
This is no more the same world we lived
in ten years ago, than if God had re?
moulded the entiro fabric. Then, a
careful, laborious polioy was just as ne?
cessary to success as a bolder lino of
notion is now. Then, it was labor; now,
it ia speculation. You know that thou?
sand of fortunes are won and lost in a
day."
*|Then the aggregate of wealth re?
mains the same, and why should not
you and I be the losing ones?"
"BeoauBO we would be sharp euough
to take care of ourselves."
"Wo might encounter those who would
be equally sharp, or perhaps, sharper."
"I don't fear it," replied Ralph, com?
placently; "I don't think I flatter my- '
self, when I say I am abundantly able to
take oare of No. 1, and I mean to do it.
No half measures for me. Io these days,
Fortune bestows her favors with a libo
ral hand on thoso who have the courage
to strive for them, and tho tact and per?
severance not to heed her when sho says
'no.' For my own part, I shall forthwith
pay conrt to her with suoh assured auda?
city, that for very shume, she cannot. L-jt
smile on me."
Ralph aroso and took his hat, prepara?
tory to leaving, but he could not forbear
ono more essay to move bis cautious
friend.
"Think it over, Will; givo what I havo
said your unbiased consideration, and I
am almost certain you will join me. Tho
risk is very little-nay, I think there is
no risk at all; and*be gaina will be largo.
In thia one transaction, c.whwh will not
affect your legitimate bowpe6S,.you will
seooro a dear profit of $10,000; more
than you will obtain in a whole year;
through tho old legalized, channels."
..Yes, or in two years either; for, as
you know, in oar brnnoh of trade, pro?
fits Wore never smaller than at present.
The merchant who saves himself this
year will do well."
"And you cnn bo content to ineroly
savo yourself, when you might have nny
of tho golden prizes that speculation
holds out to tho adventurous?"
. 'I dare say, those golden prizes do not
look half so bright to mo os they do to
you; for I seo them only uuder tho sha?
dow of that dork cloud, marked-'Fi
nancial Ruin,' that ever overhangs tho
haunts of speculation."
"Good-bye, Will. Think it over nuy
how, old fellow; maybe you'll chango
your mind, after all."
"Success to you, Ralph. You have
taken, as ouo may say, tho express train
to the land of nQlue?ce; let mo beg of
you, if your velocity permits, to glauco
at tho milo stones on your route, and
read tho inscriptions thereon, such as
.Ho that hnsteth to bo rich, shall not bo
iuuoceut.' 'He that lovcth silver, shall
not be satisfied with silver; nor he that
loveth abundance, with increase. ' "
"Thank you," said Ralph, smiling
good-humoredly; "let mo apply your
((notation by li tushing tho verse: %Tllia
is also vanity.' "
With a pleasant smilo for Ralph's
bright, sanguine disposition always chal?
lenged that, William Arnold saw his
friend depart; but his heart was uot at
ease.
Speculation! That treacherous sen
which had engulfed BO many! Would
Ralph tempt it? Yea, verily. Secure
iu his strength and skill, ho was cugci
to try its stormy waters, utterly forget?
ting how many noblo wrecks slept
fathoms below.
Ralph Somers was the son of a well
to-do merchant, who, by close attention
to business, and careful, frugal habits,
had brought up and educated a largt
family. As each of his children mar?
ried, ho gavo a portion, sufiicieut foi
present competence, and a means ol
futuro independence. Ho carried hit
business intact through the civil war,
and dying soon after, left it to Ralph,
his youngest child, who stands before
you, reader, an ex-Confederato officer,
nud a prosperous, but discontented mer?
chant, thirty-five years old, and hand
somo withal. Just beforo tho com
mencement of tho war, he had married t
young lady of great beauty and amiabili
ty, whoso supreme aim had eveu beon tc
make his homo pleasant, and himscl:
happy. She had succeeded so far, tba1
he was as happy os a woman could muk?
him; but business men have a life out
side of the homo circle, and in that life
he had grown restless and discontented
at the slow sales and small profite. H?
fretted himself into a state of minc
which is ready to grasp at any hazard
that promises speedy and abundan
riches. He told himself his reason fo;
desiring wealth, was to placo his fain i b
above tho reach of possiblo mischance
but tho true causo was, speculation wai
theu rampant, ns it is during, and fo:
some time after, all wars, and he sav
men rising from obscurity to places o
seemingly greater prosperity than tba
occupied by himself. This his ainbi
tious naturo could not brook.
There was about town a mau of appa
rently large means, though whero hil
meiiMH were, no ono had any defiuih
kuowledge. Ho dressed haudsomely
lived profusoly, was always full-handed
talked contemptuously of tho pnltr
sum of a million, and was universal!;
considered a rich man. Ho was presi
dcut or director of some half dozei
stock companies, mutual or otherwise
and his friendly uotice was an honor no
conferred on every one; therefore, tin
moro felt by those whom he, in his con
desconsion, singled ont to bo the resci
pients of it. Latterly ho had distin
guished Ralph Somers, by many token
of his favor. His handsome earring
was often seen before Ralph's door, am
Ralph was often seen in it, as it proudl;
swept around the public drive.
This mau, Weldon was his name, wa
coucoctiug a grand project for makin
money. The names of the old ring wei
somewhat worn, and ho wanted som
uew ones to grace and strengthen hi
new and darling scheme. Ralph Somer
was known to be a solid man, sober, ul
tent ive to business, and not burdeue
with debt. His uame carried consider*
bio weight in the commuuity, aud hi
eager, ambitious disposition, made bil
a ready tool of deeper and more desigi
ing men.
Weldon's great plan was for tho d<
velopment of some homo enterprise, ant
consequently, becamo immensely popt
Inr. Tho company was organized, stoc
issued, and the achene became a verity
Ralph had been fascinated from tho firs
Weldon had talked him into thesmootl
est groove of ready made fortunes; an
he felt that his independence was a
aured. Ho took and paid for sever
thousand dollars worth of stock, aud fe
himself fortunato to get it, as Weldoi
who had been elected President of tl
concern, declared there would bo but
limited amount issued. Tho withdraw
of so much money from his bnsincs
would havo crippled him seriously, hu
ho not boon enabled to borrow for pr
sent deficiencies.
He had been comm'ssioned by tl
President to endeaver to draw hisfriem
William Arnold, into tho scheme, but 1
failed in tho attempt. Meantime, no
withstanding, the company was orga
ized, tho shares taken and paid up,
house rentod and prepared. The Gradit
and Fertilizing Company did not opt
for business; and when people began
talk, a little above their breath, abouti
vestigation, they suddenly awoke to tl
truth, that the President and Ooshi
had not boen seen, tho former for tv
days, and the latter, for the last twont
four hours. They had mysteriously d:
appeared, evaporated but of tho com mu
oily, and with them went two hundred
thousand dollars of the people's money;
besides some fruitful gleanings from
other fields, ?wherein the worthy PreaK
dent had had the range.
Of all the victims, Ralph Somers was
the heaviest loser, pecuniarily and other
wise, for his faith in human integrity
was gone forever. After tho audacious
piece of villainy had transpired, and its
disastrous results become known, Ralph
called ou his friend Arnold, from whom
ho had borrowed money to keep his pa?
per nfloat, while Weldon's grand project
was making such heavy drains ou his
purse. Very gloomy was tho face that
looked into Arnold's counting room, that
October morning, two days after the ele?
gant sign of tho unfortunate Grading aud
Fertilizing Compuuy was takeu down
aud cousigucd to obscurity.
"Good morning, Ralph. Walk in. I
am glad to seo you," was th?} cheerful
greeting of Arnold.
"I eau hardly say tho same," replied
tho other, bitterly; "for I eau moko no
provision for the live thousand dollars
that I was to repay to you to-day 1"
"Well, I will have to get on without
it," was tho philosophical answer. "For?
tunately, I am not pressed for money, at
present. But, tell me about that unfor?
tunate speculation. Things aro uot so
bad, I hope, as rumor has them."
"They couldn't well bo worse. I seo
nothing but ruin before me, unless I eau
avert it by some moro fortuuato transac?
tion."
"What do you mean, Ralph?" asked
his friend, iu alarm. "Havo you uot had
enough of speculation?"
"No," answered Ralph, sharply. "That
cursed affair has taught mo how those
things aro done, aud I would bo worse
thau a fool, not to profit by tho lessou.
Just bo patient with me, Will, aud you
shall have every cent of your money
back."
"1 am not uneasy about my motley,
but I am about my friend. For God's
sake, Ralph, givo over speculation. Pa?
tient industry will retrieve your losses
and lead to final success. Let these sud?
den fortunes alone; they aro almost in?
variably sham ones, with 110 stability,
and Hubie at any timo to a destructivo
crash. Write on your banucr-'Festina
lente,' and throw it to the breeze, from
tho loftiest point of your establishment.
Work up to it, and my word for your
success."
"No musty Latin, or slow advances for
me," replied Ralph, impatiently; "hav?
ing seen how money may bo lost, I am
now determined to try how it may be
won."
And so tho friends parted. Ralph en?
tered recklessly into his new career, aud
by successful outside operations was soon
enabled to right his disordered finances.
But old established houses began to
grow somewhat shy of him, and demand?
ed cash, where they had formerly given
one, three or six months' timo, ns best
suited their customer. This incensed
him, and his business relations became
unpleasant. Moreover, his uniform suc?
cess iu his smaller speculations led him
to neglect his legitimate affairs, nod look
to these outside transactions for a more
generous income. As he had said, ho
had learned how those things were done,
and with all his acquirements, he had
learned something of the finesse&n? dis?
honesty of the modus operandi, which ho
did not hesitate to practice. The con?
sequence was, ho made himself obnox?
ious, not only to his friends, but to tho
better class of citizens generally; there?
fore, he determined to wind up his com?
mercial relations aud remove to a distant
city.
Here, ho made quito a name by his
successful oporatious. He grew rich, us
if by magic, bought a magnificent house,
and lived in great style. If this had sa?
tisfied him, all might havo been well; but
ho pushed his good fortune to the extre?
mity, aud she went over to the other
side.
Ho took up tho desperate hazard of
resurrecting a defunct organization, aud
putting a little galvanized lifo into its
broken dowu stocks. But hero ho had
to deal with meu fully os sharp as him?
self; and in the course of putting thc
conceru on its legs again, ho was de?
tected in some nefarious proceedings
that led to his arrest for swindling. He
was tried, convicted and seutenced to
two years hard labor in tho peniten?
tiary.
This calamity fell with crushing force
on his loving and high-minded wifo.
She never held up her head again, but
gradually faded out of tho lifo that had
once been so bright and full of promise
to her. The warder at tho prison used
to bow instinctively with a deeper reve?
rence to tho white faced woman, who
crept ia every day, aud asked permission
to speak to No. 322. It was long before
she could ask it, without that choking
sensation iu her throat aud that blind?
ing mist before her eyes; but as thc
world and its mortal associations faded
from her memory, her coming was more
like an angel visitant to that dark nod
moody captivo. And when, ero tho first
year had expired, abo was translated tc
that land where trouble never enters
she doubtless carno daily and nightly, in
spite of warder nut! keys, to minister tc
him, who, in bitter shame, was working
out tho hurd sentence of tho law.
Ono day, about a year after Ralph's
incarc?ration, ho heard two officials neat
him talkiug of an old offender, who wai
to bo brought in the next day, ami
assigned to tho coll adjoining his own,
Tho man's case touched Ralph's sympa
thy, for it was similar to his-aman whe
had preyed upon the world, uutil th?
world, to be rid of him, had shaken bia
into that dreary hole, there to end bi?
miserable days.
Ralph looked forward with the deopes
interest to the coming of his fellow
captive; bnt when he met him face tc
face ho staggered like a drunken man
for. notwithstanding his shaven beac
ami prison garb, ho instantly recognizec
his old acquaintance, Mr. Weldon.
