Slurs on Woman. Of nil evils prevalent among young men, we know of none more blight ing in its moral ell'oets limn to speak lightly of the virtues ol women. Nor is there anything in which young men are so thoroughly mistaken as the low estimate they' form of the j integrity of women. Not of their own mothers one! sisters, hut of oth ers, who they frrget arc somebody else's mothers and sisters. As a rule, no person who surrenders to this de basing habit is to be trusted with an enterprise requiring integrity of char acter, l'lain words should be spoken on this point, for the evil is a gener al one, and deep-rooted. If young men are sometimes thrown into so ciety of thoughtless or depraved wo men, they have no right to measure all other women by what they sec of these than they have to estimate the character of honest and respectable ' citizens by the developments of crime in our police courts. Let our young men remember that their chief happi ness in life depends upon their utter faith in women. No wordly wisdom, no misanthropic phylosophy, no gene ralization can cover or weaken truth. It stands like the record itself?for it is nothing less than this?and should put an everlasting seal upon the lips ' that are wont to speak lightly of women. To the Girls. Never marry a man who has only his love for you to recommend him. It is very fascinating, but it does not make the man. If be is not other wise what he should be you will nev er be happy. The most perfect man who did not love you should never be your husband. But though marriage without love is terrible, love only will not do. If the man is disdouorublc to other men, or mean, or given to any vice, the time will oomc when you will cither loathe him, or sink to his level. It is hard to remember, amidst kisses und praises, that there is anything else in the work! to be done or thought of but love-making, but the days of life arc many, and the husband must be a guide to be trusted, a companion, n friend as a lover. Many a girl has married u man whom she knew to be any thing but good "because he loved her so.'' And the flame has died out on the hearth stone of home before long, and beside it there has been sitting one that she could never hope would lead her heavenward?or who, if she fol lowed him as a wife should, would guide her to perdition. Marriage is a solemn thing, a choice for life; be careful in choosing. Hard on the Beast. -See what it is to be famous ! A London journal tells the following story of spoony Butler of New Or ' leans fame: "At a Washington lea party, where Gen. Butler was recent ly a guest, the hostess, glancing over the table, perceived Iiis cup unfur nished with an important implement, of which he was supposed to appreci ate the value. "Why, Gen. Butler," she oxcluimcd, in a little womanly llulter of consternation, "haven't you a spoon?" "No indeed madam!" quickly responded the general, spring ing Iron) his .scat and slapping his pockets one after the other, ??upon my word, madam; if you don't be lieve ino, madam, you may "search me?'' The applause which greeted this spontaneous sally "may bo more easily imagined than described." Spccail Notice.

In 1818 thirteen men gathered to gether, thirteen prayers were said and thirteen dollars subscribed for the commencement of a place of learning for those of the Baptist faith?and then the thirteen men all went home.
