MY RESTING PLACE. 
Oh! lay me not when I am gone, beneath the cypress 
shade, 
Nor yet beside the lonely yew would I in death be laid; 
No mournful symbol of decay above my head should 
wave, 
No monument or weeping urn be placed upon my grave. 
I would not rest neathcity turf, beside the dusty street, 
Resounding with the careless tread of idle passing feet; 
I would not lie where stranger eyes might rest upon my 
bed, 
Where ruthless hands might pluck the flower that bloomed 
above my head. 
But lay me when I go to sleep upon the rivulet’s side, 
Where underneath the wild rose shade, the sweet blue 
violets hide, 
Where gay voung shrubs and wildwood flowers o erflow 
the lap of spring, 
And waters dance to gladsome tunes the joyful songsters 
sing. 
And Summer's breath that wakes the flowers at mom’s 
first rosy beam, 
And scatters dewy fragrance forth o'er hill, and wood, 
and stream, 
Shall mingle with the evergreens in fadeless youth that 
bloom, 
And whisper mong the darksome pines that shade my 
quiet tomb. 
And when the last red tinge of day has left the western 
sky, 
And twilight puts her mantle on, and lights her lamps on 
high, 
Beneath the pale sweet beam of stars and Luna’s silver ray. 
The lonely whippoorwill shall come and chant her evening 
lay. 
And often as the crystal stream reflects the starry sky 
Upon.its sweet and placid face in perfect imagery, 
As often as the dewev leaflet breathes the evening air, 
The hearts that loved me best on earth may meet my 
spirit there. Kate Woodland. 
RICHES. 
It is the mind that maketh good or ill, 
That maketh wretch or happy, rich or poor; 
For some that hath abundance at his will 
Hath not enough, but wants in greater store; 
And other that hath little asks no more, 
But in that little is both rich and wise : 
For wisdom is most riches; fools, therefore, 
They are which fortunes do by vows devise, 
Since each unto himself his life may fortunize. 
[ Spenser.

SELF-MADE MEN. 
I have no belief in self-made men. Take 
away all that a man has gained by associa¬ 
tion with the living or the dead, and I will 
not give much for what remains. Lot Web¬ 
ster, Fillmore, or any other man of emi¬ 
nent position you please, have been reared 
in a country whei’o tho arts of civilization 
were unknown, let his only companions 
have been a few clownish creatures, whose 
chief caro was the supplying of their ani¬ 
mal wants, or rather let him havo been 
shut out from all converse with mankind to 
the age of thirty years, then transported to 
the city of Washington, and what kind of a 
sensation would he have created, think you ? 
We hear much extolment of so-called 
self-made men from a certain school of phi¬ 
losophers, and a proportional amount of 
half-laughing, half-serious clamor against 
such as have the means and the inclination 
to seek partial preparation, for the duties 
of life within the walls of a college or uni¬ 
versity. Not to enter upon a discussion of 
the evils, which are many, and, both in them¬ 
selves and their consequences, serious, wo¬ 
ven into the systems of education adopted by 
our higher schools of learning, it does seem 
a little ungenerous, not to say cynical, to 
indulge in sneering remarks upon those 
whose tastes have directed and whose cir¬ 
cumstances have permitted them to enter 
upon the higher walks of Literature under 
tho guidance of masters. Scholars become 
scholars mainly through their own exertions 
in investigating, with the aid of those who 
have gone before them, the laws of the uni¬ 
verse; all tho masters in Christendom can¬ 
not transfor from books to tho heads of 
their pupils the acquired wisdom of ages, 
without strenuous effort on the part of the 
latter. And what is the great difference 
whether ono applying himself to scientific 
pursuits, to the study of Law, Medicine, 
Theology, Philosophy, or Economics, havo 
recourse to the lettered page alone for in¬ 
struction, or sometimes ask the aid of a 
present, living interpreter between tho de¬ 
parted or inaccessible author and himself ? 
In either case it is an adding to one’s self the 
proper treasure of another ; a sort of bor¬ 
rowed growth, like that of a stone, by ac¬ 
cretion ; not like that of a plant or tree by 
the development of its inner life. 
In this connection we may mention fur¬ 
ther, that by an unworthy prejudice which 
has gainod great prevalence, the child of 
penury who struggles against adverse cir¬ 
cumstances and finally wins his way to con- 
soquence, is constantly pointed out to youth 
as an example of persevorance and success¬ 
ful mastory of difficulties, perhaps, after all, 
more easily overcome than those disadvan¬ 
tages attending the possession of great 
wealth, above which many individuals have 
risen without exciting particular attention. 
Finally in our crusade against the perni¬ 
cious notion that, in the attainment of hon¬ 
orable distinction, whether in a literary, po¬ 
litical, theological or other sphere, wealth 
as a means is indispensable, lot us not fall 
into tho romantic but equally delusive error, 
that poverty offers its subjects in compen¬ 
sation for extreme leanness of purse, extra¬ 
ordinary capacity for mental progress, and 
that opulence involves tho doom of its heir 
to hopeless mediocrity, however inflexible 
of purpose, and however assiduous of ap¬ 
plication to intellectual culture he may be.

SOMETHING ABOUT PIC-NICS, 
We wonder who first invented pic-nics.— 
They must have been adoptod soon alter 
folks first moved into their Iramed houses, 
as memorials, periodically observed, of the 
time when they lived in tents or dwelt in 
shady woods, without a roof. But whoever 
their inventor may bo, the pic-nic has won 
its way both into the dictionary and into 
tho hearts of citizens. 
It is very pleasant to carry ono s dinner 
twenty miles from homo that he may eat it 
in a wilderness, off a table six inches too 
high—sitting on a bench six inches too low. 
It sharpens tho appetite to find that tho 
bread must be consumed butterless, the 
radishes without salt, and the beets without 
vinegar. Tho ice-cream is all tho better 
that you have to eat it with your jack-knife 
from off a pie platter, and the stewed pears, 
that you take them by tho stem, and tho 
quahaugs by tho shell, with fingers for 
forks. It rather helps tho flavor of wa¬ 
ter-melons, that you have to break them 
over your knee, and scoop out tho ruddy 
pulp with a clam shell. It dont make you 
nervous at all to see a great spider let him¬ 
self down into your cup ot coffee, or a big 
black ant waddling through tho butter, that 
melts in a pint bowl where the sun strays in 
between the leaves. 
Then it is worth something to soe the girls 
as they tako out from their baskets tho cake 
and cheese, and cold mutton and boiled 
ham, all wrapped and covered in the whitest 
of napkins. To see whether they seem as 
much at homo among tho substantial, as 
you know that they are among the dainties; 
whether their fingers move as freely among 
the crockery and the edibles as along the 
keys of the piano. That young poet, who 
was so helpful at first, has fairly seated him¬ 
self, while unconsciously his eyes follow eve¬ 
ry movement of the lithe lass with flaxen 
hair. IIo is dreaming how she would grace 
a smaller table, in a ceiled room, or on the 
back piazza, of a cottage, with one living 
witness, and none else, but the shadows cast 
before into tho little chairs of possible chil¬ 
dren. 
Many matches are made here. Many 
bargains are concluded, and properly soal- 
ed, and the fees of tho clergy are sensibly 
increased by their aid, when frosty weather 
sets in, and tho coal burns bright in the 
grate, and thoughts of domestic comforts 
swoll within, and burst tho dry hearts of 
bachelors. Wo like a pic-nic, as tho old ne¬ 
gro liked to be sick, because it feels so good 
to get over it, and have our meals in our own 
house again, sitting at a comfortable table.

KIND WORDS-USE THEM. 
Because they fall pleasantly on tho 
oars of all to whom they are addressed, and 
it is therefore one of tho ways of promoting 
human happiness. 
Because they give an impression in your 
favor, and thus prepare tho way for your 
greater influence over others for good. 
Because kind words powerfully contribute 
to soothe and quiet your own spirit, when 
ruffled by the unkindness of others. 
Becauso they show the difference between 
you and tho rude, malicious, or revengeful, 
and aro suited to show them their wrong. 
Because they ax-e suited to stir up the 
kind affections of their own heart. There 
is sweet music in such a voice rightly to af¬ 
fect the soul. 
Because they are so uncommon, use them, 
that there may be more of such bright stars 
in our dark firmament. 
Because they aid in carrying out the di¬ 
vine injunction, “ be courteous,” ‘’be kindly 
affectioned ono to another.” 
Because you cannot conceive of any 
truly benevolent being who would not use 
them. 
Because you have heard such words from 
your God, and hope to hear such words for¬ 
ever’ 
THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE. 
Prof. Grimm, ono of the most eminent 
Continental philologists, in a treatise on the 
origin of languages, read before the Royal 
Academy, Berlin, thus speaks of the English 
language : “ It possesses through its abun¬ 
dance of free medial tones, which may bo 
learned indeed, but which no rules can teach, 
the power of expression such as never per¬ 
haps was attained by any human tongue.— 
Its altogether intellectual and singularly 
happy foundation and development, has 
arisen from a surprising alliance between 
the two noblest languages of antiquity—the 
German and the Romanesque—the relation 
of which to each other is well known to be 
such, that the former supplies the material 
foundation, the latter tho abstract notions. 
Yes, truly, tho English language may with 
good reason call itself a universal language, 
and seems chosen, like the people, to rule 
in future times in a still greater degree in 
all the corners of the earth. In richness, 
sound reason, and flexibility, no modern 
tongue can be compared with it—not even 
tho German, which must shake off many a 
weakness before it can enter the lists with 
the English.” 
If “Do as you would be done by” were 
made the “ Common Law,” much less parch¬ 
ment would be used. 
COUNTERFEIT BANK NOTES. 
The immonse number of counterfeit bank 
notes constantly in circulation throughout i 
tho country, is sufficient evidence of the ab- t 
soluto necessity of a complete and thorough i 
reform in the system of engraving and < 
printing them. Those who havo never had i 
a “peep behind tho scenes” are astonished 1 
that the counterfeits can bo so perfectly ex- s 
ecuted, even supposing the right to make ] 
and issue them were recognized as lawful. ] 
Bank note engravers and Bank directors < 
have rested in security on tho secrecy of 1 
their operations, and tho expense and elab- 1 
orate finish given to their work, but these < 
are, at this day, no safeguards at all. In a ] 
work befoi’o us, published by W. L. Ormsby, i 
tho steel and copper plate engraver, No. 12 < 
Vesoy street, the whole subject is laid bare < 
in a simple and straight-forward manner.— 
Bank directors, certainly, should pause be- 
foro ordering new and expensive plates on 
the present plan, and read and “ inwardly 
digest ” this valuable book. 
The great evil exposed and to bo guarded '■ 
against is tho “ patch-work,” comprising the 
present issues of bank bills. To understand 
this, let tho reader remember that each sep- | 
arate portion of the engraving of a bank 
bill, originally comes from a separate plate. 
That is, the figure in the corner, the vignette 
in the centre, the end pieces, etc., were each 
in the first place engraved separately, and 
after they were once so produced, the same 
engraving has been made to serve on the 
bills of hundrods of different banks. To get 
up a new plate now-a-days, is merely to 
make up a new arrangement of these old 
engravings, stereotype them, by means of a 
press constructed for the purpose, and go 
on with the printing. Stereotypes of very 
many of theso engravings have, in the course 
of time, got into the possession of counter¬ 
feiters, so that they can imitate genuine 
bills so closely as, in some cases, to defy de¬ 
tection. In fact, their work is quite as gen¬ 
uine as that produced by tho bank note en¬ 
gravers. 
Tho remedy for all this, proposed by Mr. 
Ormsby, is that each bank should adopt an 
original vignette of the full sizo of tho bill 
itself, and that the lettering should be cut 
into or embodied with that vignette. In 
this way each different denomination would 
have a distinct and entirely different ap¬ 
pearance from its neighbors, and tho coun¬ 
terfeiter conld ouly imitate a single issue 
with a single plato. No alterations could 
bo made which would adapt tho same plate 
to tho issues of another bank, and hence tho 
counterfeiter would find the expense of his 
plate far over-balancing the profits from the 
limited issue which ho could get into circu¬ 
lation.— JY. Y. Sun. 
KEEP THE HEART ALIVE. 
These words of Bernard Barton are good. 
Often good and wise men in other things 
havo rendered their old age cheerless and 
unlovely, from a want of attention to them : 
Tho longer I live, the more expedient I find 
it to endeavor more and more to extend my 
sympathies and affections. The natural 
tendency of advancing years is to narrow 
and contract theso feelings. I do not mean 
that I wish to form a new and sworn friend¬ 
ship every day, to increase my circles of in¬ 
timates ; those are very different affairs.— 
But I find it conduces to my mental health 
and happiness, to find out all I can which is 
amiable and loveable in those I come in con¬ 
tact with, and to make the most of it. It 
may fall very short of what I was once wont 
to dream of; it may not supply tho place of 
what I have known, felt, and tested ; but it 
is better than nothing ; it soems to keep the 
feelings and affections in exercise; it keeps 
the heart alive in its humanity; and till we 
shall all bo spiritual, this is alike our duty 
and our interest. 
Repose of Manner. —Gentleness in the 
gait is what simplicity is in the dress. Vio¬ 
lent gesture or quick movement inspires in¬ 
voluntary disrespect. One looks for a 
moment at a cascade—but one sits for 
hours, lost in thought, and gazing upon tho 
still waters of a lako. A deliberate gait, 
gentle manners, and a gracious tone of voice 
—all of which may bo acquired—give a me¬ 
diocre man an immense advantage over 
those superior to him—to the boldly tran¬ 
quil, to speak little, and to digest without 
effect are absolutely necessary to grandeur 
of mind or proper development of genius. 
— Balzac.

Two Ways of Working. — Make your 
wo'-k a pleasure. There are two ways of 
seeing the sun rise—one with a dull com¬ 
plaining spirit, that if it could, would blot 
out the great luminary, with its wishy-washy 
flood of eternal complaints, the other with 
a joyous seeing along the western path, gates 
of gold, and palaces of ivory. So there are 
two ways of doing work; ono that depress¬ 
es tho soul by its listless, formal, fretful par¬ 
ticipation, tho other that makes labor a 
boon and a blessing, pursues it not only for 
gain, but the highest exaltation of the men¬ 
tal and moral boing. 
To succeed, a man, especially a young 
ono, should havo inward firmness, steadi¬ 
ness, and intrepidity, with exterior modesty 
and seeming diffidence. lie must modest¬ 
ly but resolutely assert his own rights and 
privileges. He should have an apparent 
frankness and openness, but within, caution 
and coolness. All these things will como 
by frequenting with and observing good 
company. 
With evory exertion, the bost of men can 
do but a moderate amount of good : but it 
seems in the powor of tho most contempti¬ 
ble individual to do incalculable mischief.—
