Every one must see daily instances of peoplo who complain from a mere habit of complaining; and make their friends uneasy and strangers merry by murmuring at evils that do not exist and repining at grievances which they do not really feet Graves. The fountain of content must spring np in the mind; and he who has so little knowledge of human nature as to seek happiness by changing any thing but his own disposition, will waste his life in fruitless efforts and multiply the griefs which he purposes to remove. Samuel Johnson. When we begin to live out of our selves, to appreciate interests that we do not share, and sympathize with joys and sorrows not our own, to respect knowledge that we have not gained, and wisdom from whatever source it comes, then shall we be released from the cha'nB which keep us back from seeing much that is true, and feeling much that is good, and our lives will be come full and rich to ourselves and 5eci'j- to others."" Paint from potatoes is a new wria kle in the arts and sciences. Kuhiow's Trade Eeview gives the manner of prep aration. 15oil a kilo of peeled potatoes Id water; after niching, dilute with water and" pSs through a fine sieve. Add two kilos of Spanish while diluted with four kilos of water, and the result will be a color of beautiful milk white. Different colors can be effected by the addition of different ochres or minerals. Apply with a brush; it adheres to plas ter and wood very well, will not peel, and hesi of all is cheap.

PAT AND THE EMPEROB. RecoUrrtlone afDom FMro'B Vlalt to SI. Inula la lt?. The published accounts of the revolu tion In 15rall, resulting in the over throw of the Imperial government, the deposing of the Emperor, Rom Pedro II., and the establishing of a republic are of particular interest in this country, owing to the fact that the central figure of the momentous tnovoment, the de throned monarch, was a visitor to the United States in 1S78, and has always been a close student and warm admirer of the American form of government, and also of the States iu general. Dur ing his tour through this country Pom Pedro visited St. Louis, and the discus sion of his overthrow brought up many rominl.HconHes of that visit. The Em peror's democratic leanings were strong ly shown by his studied avoidance of all formal ceremony during his travels, which were conducted strictly incog, and with as small an attendant suite as was possible. His dodging of the for midable committee appointed to wel come him to this city was recalled with a laugh by many, and followed by the story of how Mr. George Ilaln was or ganized by chance into an impromptu imperial reception committee of one to show the august visitor the sights of St. Louis. The story, as told by Mr. Pain himself to a reporter of the Repub lic, is an interesting one. "Of course," said Mr. Bain, "it was known just when Pom Pedro would ar rive, and a formidable and representa tive committee had been appointed to receive him. Unfortunately, however, the committee went to the Southern Hotel for that purpose, while the Em peror went to the Lindell, was register ed, and immediately afterward the en tire party took carriages and began the round of the city on their own hook. I chanced to be on Third street just when the first ;urriasr,containinphi Brazilian Majesty, whirled around - from Oliver street. The driver, Pat Shevlin, knew me, and, being evidently diited to aid Pom Pedro as ma.-b as possible in see ing the sights of St. Louis, hailed mn, with a wild brandish of his whip, shout ing enthusiastically as he rattled around the corner, "llou'd up, Misther Pain! Wan minute, there, Misther Pain! I've tho Emperor of Brazil in me carriage! Come over and I'll inthrajuce ye to 'm! I crossed the street as Pat made a gal Iant stop, and sure enough he swung open the carriage door and said, in his best manner: 'Emperor, this is Mr. Pain. He'll tell ye any thing ye want to know.' I saw in a moment that Pat really did have the Brazilian monarch aboard, and, in spite of the unique introduction, the Emperor acknowledged it very pleasantly, saying in French: "General Sherman told me in Washington, Mr. Ilain. that I must be sure and see your St Louis post-office, and I have accord ingly driven down here for that pur pose. I explained to him that he should have been driven to the new post-office. not the old one, and then invited him to the next corner. H accepted the in vitation, and the entire party, filling three carriages, alighted and accompan ied him. I escorted them on the floor, explained the different features of the trading, and with the exception of Sec retary George Morgan, I don't think a soul on 'change knew that the fine-looking old gentleman by my side and the lady who held my arm as we went in were the Emperor and Empress of Bra zil. They were both very plain and pleasant in manner and seemed delight ed with the Informality of their recep tion. I afterward accompanied them to the Lindell Hotel, directed them as to the best points of interest to visit, and then made my adieus. The Emperor was kind enough to give me a most cor dial invitation to visit him if I ever came to Brazil. The party left St. Louis that night St. Louis Bepubllo.
