did not lose hia power of retort even in
madness. A hypocrital con oler with
his misfortunes once visited him in the
mad-house, and said, in a whining tone,
'What brought you here, Mr. Hall?'
significantly touched his brow with his
finger, ahd replied, 'What'll never
bring you sir,-too much brain.' A
rapid change from enthusiasm to non
chalanco is often necessary in society.
Thus a person one eloquently eulogis
ing the angelie qualities of Joan of Are,
was suddenly met by the petulant ques

Thersites of Congress, a tongue-stabber.
No hyperbole or conteint or scorn
,could be launcbed against him, but
he coubl over top it with something
more scornful and contemptuous. Op
position only maddened him into more
brilliant hitterness. 'Isn't it a shame,
Mr. President, said he one day in the
Senate,'that the noble bull-dogs of' the
administration should be wasting their
precious time in worrying the rats of
the opposition.' Immediately the Sell
ate was in an nproar, and lie was clam
oronsl callel to order. The presiding
oficer, however, sistained him; and

The luxuries and elegancies of-life are
niot to 1)0 despised. They are to be re
ceivedl with gratitude to Iim who h~as
1.rovidedl them for our enjoyment. 3But
their posses~ions do"s not insure happi
ness. T1ho sources of-true joysare n9t
so shallow. Sonme persons, hille sofNN
reptiles, have the faculty ef estracting
poison from uory tinxg thatlls beamutifulI
aind sweet; others, like tlie beo, Mvill
gather honey fron sources in wvnich we
shtould think no sweet could be found.
TIhe cheerful heart, like thme kaleido
scope, causes most discordant nmtferi
als to arrange themselves into harmony
and beaunty.

With some children it is a strongly do
