It is restful to escape the din of endless 1 machinery and the remorseless scream of steam whistles, all but innumerable, and to have a full night's undisturbed sleep^-not even an invading fly to attaok the drowsy ear. Sleep over, the first business is break- fast— and. it ,is faultless and now for a book and a shade on the hill. How much one has; to think about 1 I'm sitting under an oak: and wondering what it is whispering about.' It says it was once an acorn and began to: grow atonceand-'thoii kept-right along. It never discontentedly grumbled because it was not a pine or an,apple tree, So hav- ing anchored safely in resistance to storms of trial, having braved the frost and opened; out to the sun it has waxed a great tree and the birds of the heavens build in its: boughs. Afany a Hammond and Rossie girl and boy has done the same, has rightly used the 1 advantages of home, church and school, and now lives an honored life unsubdued by the winds of tetnptation, deligently persuing the true course of life, free from the curse of envy and discontent. Tour country boy matures more slowly than the city boy, but he is sturdier at length both in brawn and brain. A city youth sees more but observes less. He can perceive more rapidly but can neither remember nor philosophize like his country cousin. It is well for the city lad to have a course at a country school and a country lad to get sharpened up with urban life. Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it; with thy might= Be content, social dis- tinctions are small tilings. Seek not grept things for thyself; make thyself great. It is no sign of greatness or goodness that a man gets to Congress or to Albany. If an an- gel from Heaven was ordered to come down and be President for four years I feel as—I sured the other angels would crowd around him in pity and compassion. Don't ache for distinction. Ache and strive for good- ness; no matter whether the neighbors ap. preciate you or not. Garfield was asgreat and as good a man, as canal boy or car- penter, as he was in the Presidential chair. Lincoln had all his good nature and shrewd- ness in the woods and in the lawyer's office or he never would have had them in his high position in Washington. Office adds nothing to a man,'but may take much from him. There are diamonds in the earth unseen as yet by mortal eye, and there is material to-day, for as good presidents, sol- diers, lawyers, preachers, as the world ever saw, and when the emergency come God* will produce the man. The best people don't make the most noise. A good man or woman does not hire a brass band to go before and herald the acts and words of kindness which make the world better. Gravitation is silent, the dew makes no noise in its formation. A good life is per- vasive, persistent and gentle. The heart is, happy and the life is nobler when heart and mind work with fidelity according to theigifta and privileges of providence wheth- er a man is dressed in homespun or is as grand as a fashion plate. The world is not perfect yet, but if every man will-make himself perfect the world soon will be. Just at this part of tile cettj tury we are in danger from the excessive devotion to business. The boys who ought to be trained to succeed the Sumners, the Douglases, the Lincolns, the leaders in iphilanthrophy and in the pulpit are lured; away, more than a generation ago, by >the glitter of merchantile success and all kinds.cf speculation. It is hard and slow work to become a scholar, to have a well equipped mind and an influential character, but ehterprisd, dash, speculation arid the new west promise to make one rich in a hurry, and we are all in a, hurry. But patience and wisdom, if slow, bring the best returns. It takes forty thousand rosebuds to make an ounco of the otto of roses, but you could scent all the town with a single onion. It is best to be prudent and have a good name and a cood character, it is a treasure in the long run; Happy the man who builds, not on the sands of popularity or glitter, but on the rock of truth and right. Not a bare rock around me, but tell? of the Bock of Ages, which can never be moved. The wind has ceased to blow this mo- ment and the leaves to whisper and this pencil must stop also. When the writer returns to Gloversville he will have pleas- ant memories of a few days' rest in a re- gion full of memories both of rejoicing with those who rejoiced and of weeping with those that wept.
