He builds temporary contrivances: and never comes to the right place ; to remove them and put ir the per-- 1 manenc;es;sn his premises are a sort of ramshackle ode to shift!csnes: ' His wife, perhaps" the brightest girl of the town, ,oon retrogrades into a slipshod slkcrn, and maybe a scold. His children are street Arabs, and juvenile bullies, and nine i times out of ten, his neighbors pity him for a poor, mistreated, unap-preciated man, whose wife leads him a dog's life. He keeps an eye to the main chance ("theoretically), but usually misses it, and consoles; j his family and regales himself with the great things jusl ahead. "' Such men seem mainly useful to swell crowds, to help fill up the cen-- ! ' sus rolls, and to run errands for larger fry. j To be Continued . ' Wil.iT MANNER OF MEN WE ARE. Cofiiri:ute4 o the kicistfk. It lr.if be very true that It takes ' all kind to make a world," but men ; are cf font general kinds, with mix-- l tares of all conceivable grades be-- ! teen. j There is some good use for every J man alive if it could only be found; I out the pity is, sonic spend their wlude lives in trying to find out wh.Vi. they are pood for, and die be- - fore they pet there, f I ct us consider the ordinary man, .he coinmon-jfdac- e man if you jdcasc. h.;; manner, and uses. Hff'ik'tVe man who prefers his own business to other people's. If lie be a mechanic, he sticks to his trade, fur nothing lie has not ;rned, and is content with a reason - :.!)!e share of this world's gowii. lie provides for his family am! lets pol- - j hicians ravc,''htoi'ks rise and fall, and the sun rise and set, and still he goes on the even teno' of his way j j '.1st as long as some gloomy wrong is not thrust under his nose, or some t iilty's fist shaken there. If he'be a fanner, he rises early r.ml works late; he lives in a plain l: t Substantial house; eats plain, s;dis(intial food; wears plain, sub-stantial clothes! 'and drives a slow, strong team c ri a wagon of the cor-responding kind. He sows at the right time to a day, cuts his hay just at the right stage, weans off the calves and colts at the most advantageous time, and feeds them with tin; regularity of clockwork. He goes reg.tbrly to church, 'even when he lias r.O deep-Si-atc- d Veligious convictions, because regularity is part of his life. (live him good health and 110 great cala.mitiest 'and he will jog along through life ''in comfort and contentment, minding his own busi- - i.ess and expecting others to do the sah'.e; paying his honest 'debts and jiving a little to the ribor; making .o great stir in the world, but giv-ing its heavy wheels a long, strong pull, and bearing a liberal share of its actual burdens. ,1 A 'ouf 'matter of fact man is a good piof.eer; he ttigs down hillsides to tnake room for wagon wheels; he builds bridges over streams and gul lies; cuts down logs and notches up walls for dwellings for himself an 1 liii animals. He breaks up the ' '.mfitfriwe'd Jilain fo.r his farm, and Stretches Wty line's o,f fence to in- - close his clatim. He digs wells and 1 cellars", and constructs canals to bring the rev iving water to his thirsty fields;' He teaches his boy's 3 trade, and haves his girls to 'their mother's training. ' " If this sam mother is a sensible, energetic wdmah, ho prospers and out in a steady, slow go-ifn-uneventful way; enjoys; hard labor and sound sleep; and thihks he has achieved all this himself alone. He never sets a river on fire but he keeps his hearthstone warm, he never grows very wealthy but always ruts enough and some to give to the toor. He is the wheel horse in the team, the very Atlas who bears the world on his shoulders it could not roll a day without him. Then there is your g ' enthusiastic man, who loves change, ' excitement, bustle; who stagnates if there be not a destructive storm or fire occasionally to arouse his fail-ing pulse, a great bankruptcy or defalcation to startle society, a crash to drive men to suicide, ;tn execution of a felon, to make "a spectacle fat a gaping multitude, or ' a political revolution to turn things topsy turvy. ' The annual Fourtb of July is a great escape valve for strh men, " and the year of the Presidential Election makes them raving happy. They can pull the party wires or think they do shout campaign rigmaroles from barrel heads.absorb unlimited beer, and hurrah for our side until they are hoarse; and call -- it having glorious times. Such men hatch booms to swamp smaller capitalists and fill their own coffers from their small hoardings. ' They blow bubbles to glitter in K other people's eyes while they get their hands, into other " ' ' people's pockets. ' They' rush here and there where the porridge stems to rain thickest, and if heir own dish gets broken, thty freely use that of someone else, if they ever remain still, it is as a spi- - :der lies low to catch an unwary tly. Tie has the traditional "oily tongue" which can persuade you that crows are white, and that trie thing which will be profitable id t,im is just the thing his dupe is most anxious to do. It depends on the grade and cpiali-1- y of his intellect whether he dupes others or :gets fjuped. If the latter, he learns nothing by experience, only gets oiit of (me snare to fall in-to another, believing of each in suc-essio- n that it is a' ''sure thing this time." He buys lottery tickets which are always blanks, and birds in the bush which always tly. He gives up the business with which he is acquainted, to engage in some-rtin- g like a mountains!

Meilstrup, Ephraim, Agent, Ni:V 7KA1.ANI). CuntrihtitcU. Among the thousands of iwuids which dot the mighty Pacific Ocean, and are noted for their beautiful scenery, tropical cUmate and beau-tiful verdure, let New Zealand be rated among the first. Where the dark-skinne- d Maori' once roamed unmolested, each tribe plying their warfare and cannibalism with the other, now rise the spires of church-es and cathedrals, he.ivenward, sur-rounded on every hand by beautiful dwellings, lawns and gardens. The busy hum of industry 'has reared its head above anthropophogy and the savage native now tread the streets of the cities and villages with a cosmopolitan air. But how different fifty years ago! Then might have been seen the dusky warriors awaiting the word of the priest (Tohungaj whether to go out to battle with the nearest tribe, or remain quiet for a few d.tys. If his incantations were heard by the Maori (rod, Maui, and favorable omens, or visions of success shown to the dusky priest, then would they arise in their might, and the majesty of theit strength, and go forth to meet the enemy, carrying home their victims as trophies of their y.iccess and valor, in war. Then- viould the air resound with whoops and yells of the savage con-nibal-in their "haka" or war dance to the god of war. The lifeless forms or tneir captured victims could be seen roasting upon a copper niaori, or to be a little more explicit, upon the heaps of heated stones or cob-bel-which served them in their cooking and prepared 'food for their feasts. These were fca Us of no ordinary kind. On numerous occasions has the writes been told in glowing and eloquent language by some old surviving cannibal how he relished human Hesli. ' And while thus engaged, he would siimc-- his lips, as if he longed for another meal. It rivalled, he would say, the flesh of any domestic animal he had ever eaten. But y the habits and customs of half a century ago have waned into insignificance, and the light of civilization rears its bfty head among them but, sorry t j say, not without a blight. How many times has the writer not seen the effects of civilization among them? Whisky by the hogs-head sdd to them, and in return their land given in payment. But gospel influences are now having the desired effect, and ere long, the Maori will stand erect like a man. George Washington's Estates at Mount Vernon consisted of nine thousand acres of land and his dom-estic and farming establishments consisted of nearly one thousand pertons.
