little navy we then had, to look after the
treason of Burr. I accompanied him as
cabin-boy. I had some qualities that I
thought made a man of me. I could swear
like an old salt ; could drink a stifi‘ glass of
grog as if I had doublet] Cape Iiorn, and
could smoke like a locomotive._ I was ~
great at cards and fond ofganiing in every
shape. At the close of the dinner, one day,
my father turned everybody out of the
cabin, locked the door, and said to me:
“David, what do you mean to be i”
'I mean to follow the sea.’
‘Follow the seal Yes, he a poor, miser-
able drunken sailor before the mast, kicked
and called about the world, and die in some
fever hospital in a foreign climc.’
‘N o,’ I said, ‘1’11 tread the quarter-deck
and command, as you do.’
INo, David; no boy cvcr trod the quarter-

become a man.’
‘My father left me and went on deck. I
was stunned by the rebuke and overwhelm-
ed with inortification. ‘A poor, miserable,
drunken sailor before the mast, kicked and
ended about the world, and to die in some
fever hospital! That’s my fate is it? I’ll
change my life, and change it at once. I
willnever utter another oath, I will never

, A “MOMENTUM.”—Taiking about books.
9 there was a. man cameinto my store the
other day, (said, a Chicago bookseller.) lie
was evidently a countryman. Looking
about the store awhile, he pointed to a shelf
of books in bright colored binding, and
said: ~ '
“l glicss I’ll take one 0’ them books,
mister.” .
“Yes. sir. What one would you like
“0, I guess most any on‘em will do—
‘twont make much difference.”
“But,” said the bookseller, “would you
prefei a book of poetry, book of travels, or
what i”
“Wa-a-al—you see," said the countryman,
assuming a cofidential tonc,-“I live up in
the north part of the state, and I’m goin’
down into Indiana to get married. And I
kinder thought I’d stop in Chicago, on my
way down, and buy my girl a book or some-
thing for a momentum.”

Ether-Ial Indulgences. .
Not long ago we mentioned the case of
two young men in this city who took ether
to relieve pain, and experienced the effects
of the wildest intoxication. Now we read
of a young man in Berlin,who has been
through :2 long and thorough course of dis-
sipation with this volatile substance, and
the consequences are not such as would be
alluring to the average human being. How-
ever, men who will drink mean whisky
untilithe most grovclling brute‘ would be
ashamed to associate wiih theta, or inhale
the fumes of opiumuutii they become'fil
companions for the n‘iummies of Egypt, or
indulge in absinthe until the world appears
to them like a vast lunatic asylum, cannot
be safely counted on as avoiding any new
method of going to peruilion.
Anj unnatural indulgence that leads to
certain misery has a fascination for some
persons, and we are not sure that indulg-
once in other may become an irresistible
habit, leading to wretchedness and death.
For the benefit of those who find all the old
vices‘to pail uponthem, and wish fora new
and more horrible form of dissipation, we
will set forth the charms and attractions of
indulgence in ether. .
The young man of whom we spoke was
a youth of fine endowments and an excel-
lent education. I-Iis prospects in life were
brilliant and he had something to sacrifice,
which matte it worth his while to make ex-
periments with his nervous system. He
was studying about ether and its effects,
and concluded he would try it. He took a
gentle dose and was transported to a sort of
ctherial elysium. He had gorgeous visions
and ecstatic dreams. In the short space of
fifteen minutes, while he lay on his sofa in
hence, he seemed to pass through .yeais of
experience like that of a wild dream. lle
thought it was splendid iltus to be trans-
ported from this prosy world through vis-
ions of magnificence and wild thoughts and
emotions like those of some frenzied poet.
So he took it. again and again, but the
dreams lost their splendor and soon faded
out altogether, but in their place was an lil-
satiable craving for the unnatural stimulus,
it brought nothing but stupors or nervous
helplessness, but the appetite was tyran-
nous and strong, and had a hold on him
he could not shake oil". It absorbed all his
time and strength. ills scholastic pursuits
wore‘abandoned,hc had no ambition or
care for anything, but the awful habit that
he had fallen into. 110 became loathsome
to look upon, was turned out of doors and
wandered about with an old handkerchief
to his nose, saturated with ether. He did
the doctors regarded him as a new curiosity
and have just told the story. What is to
become of him l,wc can’t tell, but we
would not recommend the ctherial pleasures
in which he indulged, They cost too much.
He get so as to take two pounds and a half
of other a day, but that in itself is not an
object worth striving for. If any one
should ask us whether it were better to take
lauda’num or ether, we should say “neither ”
Boston Globc.
The falling-off of some of the railroad
dividends in Massachusetts and of some of
the manufacturing stocks, has no doubt
given some people the idea that wehave not
yet got to the “ bottom” of the panic. An
examination of the figures, however, shows
that there is really very little cause for ap-
prehension. The total amount of dividends
payable in Boston on July Isl, as given in
the Transcript, $9,889,548, against $9,117,-
378 payable 0 year ago, or. in other words.
an increase of about three-quarters of a
million, and we find that we have got to go
back to January 1, 1873, before getting to a
period when there was any very substantial
difference between dividends as they are and
as they ought to be.
Tnar’s WHERE San MADE A I‘lIS"AKE.
-—-A ludicrous scene was witnessed on a
Renss‘elacr and Saratoga train the other
day. Anewly-marricd couple entered the
car and took a seat. The husband wanted
to smoke, left his wife and went into the
smoking car. The bride began to doze and
while‘ she slept a stranger entered the car,
and as it was crowded,quietly took a seat
beside the young wife. Shortly she began
to nod, and doubtless imagining that her
husband was still in the seat, gently reclin-
ed toward the stranger and seen her head
fondly nestled on his breast. At this juni-
ture the husband returned. He stood in
mute astonishment in the aisle until the
lady awoke, and, realizing the situation,
drcwback in amazement, suffused with
blushes. Stranger explained, husband was
satisfied, and wife tried hard to appear tin-
concerned.

reason.

Flown—Strikes me I would.

aiming at is to gather the entire civilized

When this is done you 'can' beat‘your
swords into spears and your ploughshares

a paltry commission or two. , It is a labor
of love. I’m trying to elevate the race, and
promote Christian civilization. _
Puritan—It never struck me that way. _
Glenn—Anyhow it’s so. And I ask you,
as a member of the Peace Society, to enroll
your name among those who are carrying
on this great work. Terms as low. as an
other company, and dividends payabG:
semi-annually. Unborn generations will
rise up and call you blessed. We make our
policies payable atany age, or will put in

For restoring to Gray Hair its
natural Vitality and Color.
' ' _. ’ I A dressing
whirh is at
once agreeable,
healthy, and
effectual for
' '- preserving the
hair. It soon

or gray hair
. , . to L‘s original
. /~ ~ color, with me
loss and fi'eshness of youth. Thin
{lair is thickened, falling hair checked,
and baldness often, though not always,
'cured by its use. Nothing can restore
the hair where the follicleslare de~
strayed, or the glands atropliied and
decayed; but such as remaiiican be
saved by this application, and stimu-
lated into activity, so that; a new
growth of hair is produced. Instead
of fouling the liair‘with a pasty sedi-
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling off, and
consequently prevent; baldness. The
restoration of vitality it gives to the
scalp arrests and prevents the forma-
tion of dandruff, which is often so un-
cleanly and offensive. Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and inju-
rious to‘ the hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but not; harm it. If Wanted
merely for a HAIR -DRESSING,
nothing else can. be found so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not. soil white cambric, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it a rich, glossy
lust-re, and a grateful perfume, '
