I " When the cruel war is over" j No we never can forget, j, How our noble boys once sang it Ere our star m Kloom had set ; k i And its echoes sadly lingrer 1 In the halls of memory lair, i From the past its sad notes bringing'. And the bright-dreams buried there. M When this cruel war is over Oh ! our lost ones brave and true! Br the old songs we're reminded ; Of the debt we owe to you ; And the peril, toil and danger Met before our flag went down. Won your country's love forever. And a victor's fadeless crown. ; Though the "cruel war is over," Tender eyes are dim with tears ; For a father, son or brother, Missed from out the passing years ; And we lay the sweet spring flowers. O'er each quiet, lowly bed. Thinking of the dear ones sleeping With the unknown, nameless dead. God knoweth whemhis own reposes- The soldier true who wore the gray Though no immortelles of roses ! Deck his lonely grave to-day ! ; Far beyond the din of battle. Up above earth's care and pain. There in peace and love eternal Gray and Blue may meet again. Beaufort, N. t' 188. .JOHN PLOUGHMAN'S TALK. T The old knows the trap of old. You don't catch him so easily as you would i a cub. He looks sharp at the sharp teeth, and seems to say, ! "Hello, my old chap, I spy out vour trap. To-day will you fetch me? j Or wait till you catch me? The cat asked the mice to supper, butonlvthe young-ones would come to the feast, and they never went home attain. "Will you walk into my parlor?" said the spider to the fly: and the silly creature did walk in, and was soon as dead as a door -nail. What a many traps have been set for some of us.- Man traps and wo man traps; traps to catch us by the eye, by the ear, by the throat, and by the nose; traps for the heart, day traps, and night traps, and traps for any time you like. The baits are of all sorts, alive and dead, male and female, common and particular. We had need be wiser than foxes, or we shall soon hear the snap of the man trap and feel its teeth. Beware of beginnings: he' who does not take the first wrong step will not take the second. Beware of drops, for the fellows who drink take nothing but a "drop of beer," or a "drop too much." Drop your drop of grog.. Be ware of him who says, "Is it not a lit le one?" Little sins are the eggs of great sorrows, Beware of lips smear ed with honev: see how many flies are caught with sweets. Beware of evil questions which raise heedless doubts, and make it hard for a man to trust his maker. Beware of a bad rich man who is very liberal to you: he will buy you first and sell you afterward. Be ware of a dressy young woman, with out a mind or a heart; you may be in a net before you can say Jack Robin son. "Pretty fools are no ways rare: iWise men will of such beware." . i Beware of the stone whicn you stumbled over the last time you wen ihnr wav. Beware of the man who never bewares, and beware of the man whom God has marked. Beware o writing your name on the' back of a bill, even though your friend tells you ten times over 4,its only a matter of form, vou know." It is a form which you had better "formerly decline," as nnr sehool-master savs. If you, want to be chopped up, put your hand to a bill: but if vou want to be secure nev er stand as security for any living man, woman, child, youth, maiden, cousin, brother, uncle, or mother-in law. Beware ot trusting all your se crets with anybody but your wife. Be ware of a man who will he, a woman who tells tales out of school, a shop keeper who sends in-hjs bill twice, a crentleman who will make your for tune if vou will find him a few pounds Beware of a mule's hind foot, a dog's tooth, and woman's tongue. Last of all, beware of no man more than o yourself, and take heed in this matter many ways, especially as to your talk Five words cost Zacharias forty week's silence. Many are sorry they spoke, .1.. i iit but tew ever mourn tnat tney nei their tougue. 'Who looks may leap, and save his shins from knocks: Who tries mav trust, or foulest treachery find He saves hia steed whokeenshim under locks: Who speaks with heed may boldly speak his mind." "Hut he whose tonsrue before his wit doth run Oft speaks too soon and grieves when ; he has done. Full oft loose speech hath bound men fast in pain: Peware of taking from thy tongue the rein. 7 HOW ENERGY PAYS. During the business depression of five vears ago, a man called one morn ing at the basement door of a house in the upper part of the city, with a bas ket on his arm. The servant who an swered his knock, supposed he was a beererar. but something in the man's appearance when he asked for "the , lady of the house" forced her to ask ' her mistress, who was in the kitchen. to step to the door. I he man remov ed his hat, and then uncovered the contents of his basket delicious white, round codfish balls, ready for frving. He told his story. He was a book-keeper, but the firm had failed, and he was without a position, and had been for months. His wife, New England girl, was an excellent cook, and had decided to make two dozen codfish balls, if he would take them around and try to sell them. Here he was. The price was five cents a piece, and they cost about four; if he sold the two dozen he would make twenty five cents, and that was more than he had earned in . YY 1M All months, nan or tne quantity was bought at once and a note written to a neighbor urging her to become a cus tomer for the balance and a partner in' drumming up other customers if the fish-cakes proved to be as good as they looked. The man went away, with the promise of help if his goods m n a TT .a 11 a 1 deserved it. ne was to? can me next day for his decision. The two women reserved a part of theiiri purchase to cook and distribute toT their friends and neighbors, on the ground ; that "the proof of the pudding is in the eating." The fish balls were delicious, ; and immediately after breakfast each wo man cooked the balance of her pur chase, deposited the fish balls in bas kets and went about among her friends to got orders for the man. The result was that the third week delivery in the neighborhood was from a hand cart pushed by a stout German boy, while the proprietor attended to his customers. In two months he had to deliver certain davs in certain districts. he had so many orders; besides he kept a stock on hand at his house at all times. In one year the lower part of the house was given up to the busi ness, and restaurants, as well as pri vate families, were his customers. A friend of the first man, in the same financial condition, whose wife made good bread, came one morning with the seller of the cod fish- balls having small loaves of bread which he sold at five cents per loaf. He, too, made so many customers by the su- f priority of his bread that .six months ater found him delivering bread and rolls from a wagon. The bread re mained the same delicious home-made bread, made by his wife and women whom she trained; twice a week he delivers tea biscuit. Both men have m five years time bought the houses in which they live. A PLEASANT SCHOOL.-R003I A pleasant school-room is one of the most important requisities for the suc cessful performance of tb-e duty as tinned to public schools. This work of elevating pupils to a higher plane of thinking acting, and being, cannot thrive in a high degree unless school life is made pleasing and the school room a pleasant place. To speak nothing of decorations, there are many other requisites that tend towards reaching this desired end. First of all, there must be a teacher who regulates the emotions of his pu pils, one that is always cheerful, cour ageous and honest. It is in the hands of the live teacher to make the school-room such a place where pupils delight to go and avail themselves of the opportunity given them. If the teacher is affectionate, pleasing, happy and brim full of en thusiasm, there will be a generous re sponse of affection and delight on tbe part of pupils. The teacher should be the guiding spirit. His hands must strike the chords of affection and awak en responsive melody. Not only must there be a teacher, able, anxious and ready to impart instruction, but also scholars that take an interest and de light in school work, scholars among whom the principle that knowledge is power and greatly to be desired, and that virtue is both right doing and right thinking, and, above -all, that duty is the true aim and purpose of life, grows stronger day by day until earnestness and intelligence are ac quired. Earnestness is one of the leading qualifications of a school full of hap piness and at the same progressing. Good order is essential; for without its harmonizing influence all progress would be lost. There must also be plenty of pure, fresh air and seats comfortably arranged with reference to heat and light. Freedom is a necessary element for obtaining a pleasant school-room. Prompted by a desire to progress, both teacher and pupils should be free to act as far as rights permit. Teachers and pupils are under the same obliga tions to each other to be kind, patient, charitable, forgiving and happy. The current of school-life must thus be made cheerful and profitable and then men and women will arise that will become a blessing to this noble Republic.
