THE AYE STERN . DEMOCRAT, . G II A R L 0 IT E ,.- N . C . HUMBLE LIFE. ' Tell me not that, he's a poor man, That bis dress is coarse and bare; Tell me not his daily pittance Is a workman's seanty fare. Tell me not his birth is humble, That hi parentage is low; Is'he honest in his action? That is all I want to know. Is his word to be relied on? Has his character no blame? Then I care not if he'B low born- Then I care not whence his name. Would be from an unjust action Turn away with scornful eye? Would he, than defraud another, Sooner on the scaffold die? Would he spend Lis hard gained earnings On a brcther in distress? Would he succor the afflicted, And the weak one's wrongs redress? "Then ha is a man deserving Of my love and my esteem, And I care not what his birth-place In the eye of man may seem. Let it be a low-thatched hovel Let it be a elay-built cot Let it.be the parish work-house In my eye it matters not: And if others will disown him, As inferior to their cast, Let them do it I'll befriend him As a brother to the last. executor's Sale.

Self Dependence. Many ao unwise parent works hard aud, lives sparingly, all hia life for the purpose of leaving enough to give. his chil dren a start in the world as it is called. Setting a young man afloat with the money left him by his relatives is like tying a bladder under the arms ot one who cannot, swim; ten chances to one he will lose Lis bladder and go to the bottom. .. Teach him to swim and he will not need the bladder. Give your child a sound education. See to it that his morals arc pure; his mind cul tivated, and his whole nature made subservient to the laws that govern man, and you have given what will be of more value than the wealth of the Indies. You have given him a start which no misfortune can deprive him of. The earlier you teach him to depend on his own re rcsources and the blessing of God the better. Dr. J.
