Visiting. Thoro nro visits which remain in our memorios as bright spots in lifo, and thoro aro visits whoso only pleasure is that thoy aro over, But visiting ought always to bo pleasant pleasant to both givor and re cciver. Ono of tho best thjngs connected with kcoping houso is tho freedom to roccivo ono's friends, Many a nowly married coqplo, many a small family without chil dren could board with far loss caro and ox ponBO than housekeeping costs them, and almost equal comfort. But tho boardor is dependent upon tho will and and tho con veniens of othors. IIo cannot invito his frionds to como and spond a week with him without consulting tho capabilities, or do ponding for wolcomo upon tho disposition, of somo other host than himself. This pnts him in an attitudo not wholly digni lied not that which a maturo person, man or woman, would naturally choose to main tain. Thus theoretically; yot practically, it somotimos scorns as if tho hospitality of householders is ns really hedged iu as if thoy wero but inmates 01 a strangers houso, Fcoplo who aro ltospitaulo at Heart, thoroughly friondly and woll disposed, do yet mako such a burdon of hospitality that ono wonders how they can And any pleas uro in it. This is a groat pity, for the ox chango of visits aught to bo what it is oapablo of boing, ono of tho groat pleas ures of lifo, a rost, a rofroshment, an incen tive, not a burden. Bnt to ronilcr it so wo need not follow tho rules laid down in tho books, to divest recoptions of thoir terror by being always ready to rccoivo. Is it Rtukin, or East lako, or tauncolot, or onothor, who con demns ostonsion-tablcs on tho ground that your tablo should bo-oqually largo at all times, to indicato that you aro always ready for your friend? Go to, Eautlokoand Lomicelot I Sincerity is tho watohword of tho now dispensation. Wo must havo tho support of our brackets visiblo, ami tho chair-legs as palpably tlrm; but if tho tablo is to indicato that wo aro always ready for our friond, tho tablo becomos at onco a uioco of feousehold artfulnoss, and not of housohold art, for wo aro not at rjll times equally ready. Houosty in lifo must procedo honosty in furniture Wo nocd not diroct our efforts to being always ready to sco frionds, but wo could do much in tho way of tryiug not bo disturbed by their coming when wo aro not ready. If Serena could havo hor own way, sho would prefer Oolcstia's call to bo in tho afternoon, whon tho mid-day meal is ovor, tho dishes aro washed aud romoved, and Sorona is calmly reposiug in tidy dross and com parative loisuro. But if Cclostia must leave town by tho noon train, and rutin in by tou o'clock iu tho morning, when Serena is trimming tho lamps, aud there is much odor of petroleum in tho nir, and Serena's fintrers uro not wholosomo to Colettia's aloioa. shall Sorona bo dismayed und npologiso and montally regret that sho is alwavs "caucht in tho suds?" Not tho least iu tho world, if sho is a sensible and friondly woman. If it is tho proper time for her to bo cleauing lamps, and sho is in a garb propor to a lamp-cleaner, sho lias no can to uo uisiurueu muugii mu Quoen of England in crown and scepter should pay her a morning visit. Sho should not consider hersolf "caught in tho' suds," or as caught at all. Sho is in tho suds of her own freo-will and by tho foro ordination of Houvcn, and if " Heaven it self should stoop to hor," it ought to find her nowhero elso at that hour. It would bo very unbecoming that sho should bo trimming her lamps in a silk gown in tho front parlor. Why not bo entirely frank and at easo, and if her work bo pressing, bid Colcstia to a safe seat by tho kitchen fire, or if sho can conveniently go off duty for a whilo, tako hor pleasant chat to the pleasant parlor ? So far from its being necessary to bo al wavs readv for company, it is ono of tho pleasures of housokeoping tc proparo for company. Swooping and dusting are but dnll drudgery when cleanliness is tho only object; but how pleasant it is to tidy tho rooms whon a houseful of guosts aro com ing at tho end of itt There is an incentivo worthy of toil that transmutes toil into delight. But suppose you havo been ill, or tho children havo had tho scarlet fever, or Norah is gono, and thoro is a chanco for visit from a friend. Must you send her away? Yes, if you absolutely cannot undertake the slight addiiion to your work which her visit necessitates. But remem ber her visit does not necessitate that you should go through houso-cleaning previ ous to her appearance. Supposo the doors are finger-marked, and tho windows not faultlessly clean, and the guest-chamber has not been swept for a month, tho doors will open, and tho windows will let in fresh air, and you and your friend can get immense draughts of satisfaction out of tho visit, though things aro not as you would gladly havo them, if you will only not fret about them, but consign them to tho insignificanco they merit. We aro afraid of each other, forgetting that our friends have the same kind of experiences that we have. The most thorough of housekeepers is sometimes forced to "let things go," unless she sacrifices something of more importanco than "things." Se rena is distressed because- the afternoon sun reveals to her responsible eyes a little dust under tho sofa. But Cclestia is equal ly distressed becauso her student lamp suddenly goes out during Serena's evening call. Why should not both oonlfort them solves with tho reflection that nothing has happened unto them but such as is com mon unto women, and dismiss their ap prehensions? I know a man who came near bleeding to death becauso thcro was not a cobweb to be found in tho houso or barn to stanch the blood, Bo advised, dear houso-mothor, and do not loso all tho freshness and impulso to bo found in your friend's visit becauso you have no timo to go through tho houso with your broom upsiuo uown. uati Hamilton. Life is What We Make It. Ono of tho most prolific sources of open complaint and secret discontent is tho apparent inequality of tho human lot in lifo. In proof of this, wo aro pointed to tho outward differences so palpablo to nil. Wealth and poverty, health and sickness, education and ignorauco, ability aud feebleness, success and failuro, certainly present very opposite appearances; but that they aro in themselves, tho truo clo monts of lifo's hanpinoss or misery, aro erroneous, though very provalcnt ideas. Tho truth that ought to bo impressed on overy mind, and especially upon tho young, both to prevent repining, and to animato tho energies to their fullest capac ity, is that lifo is what wo mako it. Two men stand sido by side, gazing upon tho same sceno in nature. To one who has a bright and cheerful disposition, it rovcals only beauty and gladness; whilo to tho other, gloomy and sad, tho whole scouu is spread ovor with a leaden pall? It is our own state of mind that creates for us, oven Nature herself, and paints tho samo sceno iu beauty or in gloom. sttn moro is our social worm what wc mako it oursolvos. Tho solfish and cold hearted will ever find coldness and solllsh- nosg in others; tho proud will bo treated haughtily; tho angry and passionato will roccivo rudouoss and violence, and those who dishonor themselves willbcdishouor- ed by othors. But society, to tho good, tno gontlo, and tho bcnovolont, is tlillorcnt. Their example wins others to similar virtues aud dovolops tho gorms of good, which, though thoy may bo hidden, yot exist in ovory heart. From a man's esti niato of society as a whole, wo may gain n very fair knowledgo of his own charaotor, for as ho in, so will othors appear to him. To tho puro, nil things nro pure, bocauso their purity, liko tho mngnct, attracts tho samo quality in others, whilo tho hoart that is itsolf estranged from virtuo, can find uono ohtpwhero. Equally truo Is it, that our world of circumstances and ovents is what wo our selves mako it. Tho luxuries of wealth, tho triumphs of hucccbs, tho scintillntions of genius, and oven tho blowings of health, may bo convortcd into bitter ovils if tho woll springs of nature are corrupt; while tho sovcrost trials nnd temptations can, to a puro and noblo hoart, bo changed into blessings. Tho powor of trial to harm us docs not rosido in itself, but in our own feoblonoss to resist or ondtiro it. Every temptation rosistcd purities and ele vates the heart, aud ovory suffering rightly boino strengthens onr nature. Business lifo seems to dry up somo natures, and lead them away from higher thingri; whilo iu othorn, it creates virtuous independ ence, manlinoss, and integrity. Pleasure. to ono proves a poisonous draught, whilo to anothor it is a healthful lofroshmcnt. Thus lifo is what wo mako it, It is not mado up, in its intrinsic nature, of tho material world, nor of tho society in which wo move, nor of tho external circum stances which surround us. Itisourowu intomal character that moulds or fashions all theso outward things, nnd extracts from them tho bittor or tho sweet that bost astimilatos with itsolf. These out ward circumstances contain tho cssonco of both happiness ami misery both good and evil. Happy is the person who can extract tho sweet and leave tho bittor who can develop tho good and extinguish tho evil. As tho chemist works up tho elomonts into tho' desired condition, and obtains fresh knowledgo from all thodifll enlties thoy exhibit, so in tho moral, ov crything external may bo resolved into good by tho patiout eflort of man, aud all that seems most advorso may bo so ovor como or ondurod as to provo a greater blessing than tho most apparently favor able ovents. This viow of lifo will load us to put a justor estimate upon tho complaints that aro so rife among all. If lifo is what wo mako it, wo must luok within and not without, for tho sources of disoontout. Wo complain of socioty, of oircumstauccs, of everything oxtornal, but iu u most lit eral son so they aro all what no mako thorn. In proportion as wo aro lovely, wo shall boboloved; and oven in tho most trying situations, and tho sorost trials, tho main point as to thoir severity is tho spirit in which thoy aro rcceivod. Pat ion t, faith ful ondoavor novor results iu continued unhappiness, and is novor ultimately un successful. Misory chielly arises from in sufficient effort and consequent ill-success. If then wo would find lifo good, wo must fill our hearts with goodness; if wo would have tho world shino brightly upon us, wo must kindlo a light in our own souls and cause it to shed a radiance all around. Telegraph Wires. Many persons have noticed that a humming sound a low mimcal note sometimes proceeds from the telegraph wires as they hang stretched upon the pscs, which II caused by the wind playing upon them ai upon the strings of an Italian harp, fc.ven when the wind is light, the sound can often be heard by applying the car closely agajnst the pole, borne persons have erroneously attributed this sound to the electric current. Hut it really proceeds from a vibration of the wires, strung as they arc, maybe proved, when there is no wuej, by punching the pole with the cud of a cane or umbrella so as tojar it slightly, and the same KMind may then be heard given forth by the trembling wires, A very strong wind sometimes, by tightening the wire, stops iu vibration. The power of the wires to carry Uieir own resonant sound to a distance enables an operator at an office sometimes to hear men working upon the wire miles distant. It is related that at the time of the completion of the telegraphic line to the Catskill MounUin House strong winds prevailed for a few days, causiug a peculiarly loud humming noise of the stares. At length the wind died away, and the telegraphic .talian harp was mute, bevcral days thereafter the proprietor of the Mountain House, on his wsy to Catskill, reined up in front of the llalf.way House to water his horses, when he was accosted by the Kiskatcm landlords "How's things on the mountain! Lively," was the response, "Ain't doin much telegraph in', are you I "Oh es, the line is quite well patronued." "YVell.f didn't think so, ain't JUrnl a.rfupatcA oo vp in Aru nrour da)l " The Angel in the Block. "It is related of Michael Angolo that, whilo walking with somo frionds through an obscuro streot in tho city of Florence, ho discovered a block of lino marble lying neglected in a yard, and half in dirt and rubbish. Begardloss of his holiday attire ho at onco fell to work upon it, clearing away its filth, and striving to lift it from tho slimo and mlro iu which it lay. His companions askod him iu astonishment what ho was doing, aud what he wanted of that worthless pieco of rock. 'Oh, thcro's an angel iu this stono,' was tho answor, 'and I must get it out.' Ho had it ro moved to his studio, nnd with patient toil, with mallet and chisel, ho brought tho an gel out. What to othors was but n rude, unsightly ttouc, to his educated oyo was n buried glory of nrt, nnd ho discovered at a Blanco what might bo mado of it. A. ma son would hnvo put it in a stono walk; n enrtmnu woulil unvo used it in filling in, or to grado tho streets, but ho transform ed it into n creation of gonitis, and gavo it n vnluo for nges to come." A "beautiful story this. And now ns to anoltier appli cation of its moral. Every human being may bo likoned to n block of niarblo just as it comes from the quarry. Parents, teachers, nnd surroun ding circumstances nro tho artist who chisel, hew, polish, discipline, und devel op tho character of tho child. And ovory child is born with tho attributes of both angel nnd dovil. If tho angel bo hoi de veloped, wo inquiro why not? If tho dov il perverted passions aud propensities bo developed instead of tho angij moral aud spiritual sontiments thon somebody is to blame. 'Do children tako nftor their pnronts? Is thoro anything in hereditary descent? Can a child create his own will, spirit, disposition, tendencies, and charac ter? Children aro blocks of niarblo right from tho quarry, and tho niarblo in tho quarry is coarse or fluo. From a lino quarry we got lino niarblo, from a poor quarry poor Btono. Puro nnd healthy pnronts will hnvo lino children, with nil golio tendencies predominating. Low, coarso, impure, drunken, disoused parent should not expect much nngol iu their children.
