IT rs to be feared that many Christians
ink that their whole duty is done when
\ avoid evil. Their duty is negative
-, {er than positive. Says a preacher : A
5-1 . who stays at home does-not commit as
man; sins as he who travels on the road.
Nothing is so faultless as nothing. Ifa per-
son wants to be safe, let him go under the
sod. The grave is the 1001’s paradise. It
is no troub e fora man to break a sheep to
the harness, but let him try a horse if he
wants to know what there is inblood. De-
feat is more honorable in a man that Tworks
; than victory is in a sluglgard. Living just
to get to heaven is sclfis ness, and selfish-
ness in Christianity is one of the worst
kinds of selfishness. A church is good ac-
cording to the work it performs. A rose
will firow just as well in an earthen pot as
it wi in a silver one.

Farewell to May;
Among the falling apple flowers
The mated robins sing;
The hyscinths are fading fast— .
It is the last of Spring; _ '
Its sweet, last day! “Oh, why,
Fairlmaideu May." We sigh,
“Wilt than not linger?” Bush! for June
Delays until she goes; . '
And we must see the violets fade
Before we pluck a rose.
. ’Tis only losing we can win,
And giving we can take;
Our pleasures tarrying too long,
Our sorest trials make.
The hearts that grieve to lose the, May,
Would sorrow mere to have thee stay;
' Farewell, farewell, then, gentle Spring !
Our blessing with the goes:
' Above the withering violets
We see the opening rose! _

WESTPORT.
The Commitee appointed by the House of Repre-
sentatives to look into the Goose Island afialr, met
on Wednesday last. Many citizens of Wesport and

Experience has taught us that there cannot be an

the anélent theory relative to these principles is in-
correct, and that "eighty” has actually been taken
from twenty-five without any remainder. Truly the
19th is a century of wonders.
'Last week we mentioned that Mr. Belden had
from 825,000 to over $00,000 or rather your type-setter
made it so. It ' was a mistake. The item should
have read, from $65,000 to over $90,000. When Mr.

W Ike Bromley, of the Hartford Poet,
thus writes of the joint-select committee on

“It is already- a success.

admirer of the gentler, sex, a friend of the
oppressed and a member of Tammany. Mr.
Thomas Cowles, ofFarmington, a gentleman
whom Goodwin’s Statistics set down as
sixty years of age, but who is as youthful in
his feelings and certainly as gallant as the
youngest member of the House, a gently-nan

are ladies in the House, but who comes out'
strong whenever there’s a flutter 0f muslin
on the front seats is chairmano the part of

Mr. Hall, of Windham, are both gay and
good looking you bachelor lawyers. The

age and condition are omitted in the Statis-
tics, bnt who may :not be considered young,
in view of the fact that he called the House
to order as the olde st member at the opening
ofthe session, and cannot be considered any
thing but young, ju dged by his own wonder-
fully fresh and youthful appearance, is so
well known as a ladies’ man that the ap-
propriateness of his selection will be recog-
nized at once. Dr. Goodrich, of Vernon, a
Democrat, is said to have been elected in a
siren Republican town for the. sole' reason
of hi good looks. Geo. Thurston, of New
London, who at first, declined to serve, but
it is hoped-will reconsider his decision, will
glve great dignity as well as a fine personal
presence to the committee, while Mr. Baker
of Norwalk and Mr, Warner of Oxford are
both good looking men who will fill out the
row, making, when the committpe is in
session, a bench full of persOnal beauty,
elegance of carriage and demeanor, genteel
department, moral, intellectual and physical
worth, sagacity, uprightness and devotion
to woman. To this committee will come
the ladies who ask for the ballot. And we
venture to say the ladies will find them-
selves chcck-mated at the first move. _ For
sitting there in judgment upon their rayer,
this bench full of beauty and chivalIil‘y will
be at once denial and proof that any reform
is needed. For when the petitioners shall

With the ballot would choose wiser and

This preparation is scientifically and chemically

ood sheets are realized immediately after commenc-

system for which the VEGETINE cannot be used with
