. Oddities of Impulse and! Habit. ,. »l'oundcd lips. 'master them. _rlver running through it. There are few persons of any liter- ary'liking at all who have not heard or read of Doctor Johnson’s curious habit of numbering and in a manner caressing the posts in Fleet street. He did it frequently, we are told, and if he happened to pass one unnoticed would recollect the omission, and rc- trace hls steps to perform the act, a if in satisfaction of his conscience. What was the motive which instigat- ed, or the feeling which underlay, this absurd practice of the learned doctor? The question may stand over for the present, while we citc other instances of a kindred sort which may perhaps serve to cast some light upon it. Many years ago a fellowstudent oi the writer’s occupying the same sleepâ€" ing roomâ€"a lad w'ho afterwards rose to eminence ill the legal professionâ€"â€" had the habit, on retiring to rest, 01 touching with the forefingers of each hand Certain objects in the room. willing them at the sumo time by t|.e seve'al numbers (not names) be h: d appropriated to them. The objects were ten in number, being articles l 1‘ furniture, one or two books, the locl. of the door, and his slippers. Thir ceremony he performed as regularly as his devotions, and apparently with as much seriousness, and always the last thing before getting into bed. A celebrated Scotch author “'51: rot-a i-rnally moved by some strange impulse to leave his study or firesidt for his dressing room. there to t.kt his razors froln their ('llru, strop then caretully a certain number ot time: and then replace themâ€"having In occasion to make use of them. The late. Rev. Mr. for ovox forty years adissenting minister, wa.» tl‘e subject of singular impulses, which he never thought of resisting at the moment, whatever may have been his thoughts after he had obeyed them. He might, for instance, be discussing some moot point ofthcolog)‘ with a trlcnd durillg a walk, when he would suddenly, in the middle'of a Sentence. start. off at 'a rapâ€"perhaps to overtake a. trotting horse before it reached a particular spotâ€"perhaps to take a flying leap over a gate or a running stream, or it might be a wheelbarrow, or truck, or a bale of goods which caught his attention in the distance. A common thing with him was to challenge his interlocutor, in the midst of an argument, to the performance of some gymnastic feat. which he would himself accomplish forthwith, and then vanish from the field. Going once with a party of friends to see a famous oak, the enormous growth of' centuries, while all were lost in admiration at the huge proportions of the tree, he sudâ€" denly swung himself up on one of the depending branches, ran along it, aud scrambling up the trunk like a men» key, was soon lost to view among the foliage; nor did he deign to elnergt from his hiding-place, or to respond to appeals from the friends below, untll the whole of the party had left the ground. If remonstrated with on these singular outbreaks, he never apoll‘)gized for them or seemed to think that any.explanation was neces- sary. . -, There lived in the neighborhood of Bath for many years an old sea at ficer who went by the name of thc Whistling Purser, a kind-hearted and benevolent man, who bestowed a large share of his income on the poor and needy, and was the unfailing friend of the distressed. This man \‘vas always whistling ; morning, noon, and night, save when walking or at, his meals, he was piping theonc everlasting tune (which nobody cvcl identified as being a tune) from his No accident or event. howevcr surprising or untoward, ill tert'crcd with the flow of very ques- tionable melody he constantly poured forth, and of which it was said, as was indeed highly probable, he Was him- self for the most part unconscious. During the popularly ()llllJXltHIr rule oi the Jcsuils undcr barles tho ’l‘enth, We happened one day to bc prcscnt ill the Church of St. Roche. in Paris, when ll e organist, n ho had t'lllllt‘ lo officiate at a solemn Ccl'c- lnony, was seized with an irrcsislibll desire to play the old revolutionary al-d incendiary tune, “ Cairn," and lfc struck it up accordingly, with a kind of insane fervor, on the combined powers of his instrument. It was a most untortunalo treak for the musi- cian, who was incontinently hauled off to prison, where he pined ill soli- tude tor years, until the revolution oi 1830, which put an end to the rule of the priests, and set him at liberty. Most of us, at some time or other, have experienced a morbid impulse urging us to do something we ought not to do. Sometimes it is an im- pulse to laugh when we are under an obligation to be seriousâ€"sometimes an inclination to blurt out a fact which good manners requires us to be reticent about. Very frequently it is the impulse to rush into danger which common sense and our natural in- stincts teach us to avoid. Nervous persons tell us that in the presence of any sudden and unlocked for peril they can with difficulty resist the temptation to incur it, even when they know the act would be fatal; and they are deterred from expOsing themselves to risk by the fear that this nervous impulse should over- There can be little doubt that many a so-called suicide has been only the acting-out of such nervous impulsesâ€"and perhaps the same may be said of many a crime.â€" Very lately the writer was walking incur the edge of a lofty cliff with a party pf ladies and gentlemen out for a holiday ramble. A turn in the pathway gave us a sudden'view of the vale lying far below, and of the One of the gentlemen rushed forward as if about to plunge headlong, crying out at the same time, “Save mel save me i” lie was caught by a friend before =reamhing the brink, and, in a state of utter prostration, had to be taken’ lmatter in this way: back to his hotel. He assured us that he had no power to resist the impulse that came upon himâ€"that he had long been aware of his complete want of control under such circumstances, and that he would on no accounthave gone with the party had be known that any such trial was in store'for him. The causes of the strange habits and stranger impulses we have touched upon are not by any means obvious to the enquircr. It may be that such habits are partly hereditary and as such explainable on physiolo- gical grounds. or they may be the naiilullconscious expression of a pecu- liar mental condition rendered recur- rent by peculiarcircumstances. The wet speaks of a mood of mind in which “The heart In xuriates with indifferent things, \Vastiug its klndliness on stmks and states, And. on the vacant air ;” a mood, we would imagine, to which few can be total strangcrs even in years of maturity, and the minutes- 'alion of which in little children is their most fascinating charm. However this may be, the causes of the strange, and at times ovcrmaster ing, impulses which lead to acts as strange, nlust be looked for, we think. ill some unrrcognizcd failure or doâ€" rangcmont in the bodily organization, ~lnd consequent detective health. The fact thata dispassionatc man will let suddenly in opposition to what would be the sober dictates ofllis judgment, seems to point to cerebral disorder. One thing, at any rate. is vicar, and that is, that the constitu- tionally healthy and robust are rarely if ever the subjects of these unac- countable impulses.â€"â€"Leisure Hour. A Pious Conflict. A Paris correspondent says: “ In the clerical department we have a fierce battle raging between Mgr. Dupnnlou), the Bishop of Orleans and M. cuillot, the Ultramontanc editor of the Univers. That those two holy defenders of the Papal in- t'allih'llity should fall foul- of each other is a curious and edifying spec- tacle. The cause of thc quarrel is simple. M. Veuillot rushed into a pious passion because during a recent ceremony at Orleans in commemora- tion of the soldiers who fell there during the war the banner iof the Sacred heart, which was the fighting flag of the Pontifical Zouaves, was not hoisted in the cathedral, therefore he accuses the Bishop of cowardice, and goes so far as to call him ‘freeâ€" thinker’ and ‘Freenlason l’ Mon- seigneur Dupanloup now replies in the lo‘ancal‘s with a vehement letter, in which he says it is M. Veuillot who is guilty of infamy, ‘scandal and prof'anation.’ After giving the rash editor a long lecture on his general conduct the fusionislt bishop winds up with the following clincher well worthy of mention: ‘Nobody, sirâ€"- and this is my great charge against yelpâ€"nobody has contributed as much as you have, by your polemics, your insults, and your deplorable confusion of ideas, to the ruin of the work of the monarchial restoration, which only could have saved France bya final wreck l ’ ” Don’t be Discouraged. Don’t be discouraged, if in the outset of life, things do not go on smoothlv. [t seldom happens that the hopes we cherish of the future are realised. The path of life, in the prospect appears sillooth and level, but when we come to travel it, we find it all up hill, and generally tough. The journey is a aborious one, and whether poor or wealthy, high or low, we shall find it a) to our disappointment, if we have built on any other calculation. To en- .iure cheerfully what must be, and to elbow our way as easily as we can. .lopillg for little, striving for lllllcl‘, is llcrllaps the true plan. But don’t be .lis‘couragcd, it occasionally you slip by title way, and the neighbours trend over you a little ; ill other words don’t let a allure or two dishearten you â€"accidents lippen; miscalculatious will some- tilnrs be made; things will often turn -ut differently from our expectatimls, tnd we may be sufferers. It is worth while to remember that fortune is like the skies in April, sometimes clouded, rth' sonic-times clear and favorable, and t would be folly to despair of again seeing the sun, because today is stormy; so it is equally unwise to sink into despondency, ‘ when fortune frowns, since, in the common course of things she may be surely expected to smile again. And again, don’t be discouraged if you are dccrived in the people of the world; it olten happens that men were borrowed characters as well as borrowed clothes, and sometimes those who had long stood fair before the world, are rotten at the core. From sources such as these, you may be most unexpectedly deceived; and you will naturally feel sore; but to those you will become used; if you fare as most people do, they will lose their novelty before you grow gray, and you will learn to trust men cautiously, and examine their characters more closely, before you allow them great opportunities to injure you. 'Don’t be discouraged under any circumstances. Go steadily forward. Rather consult your own conscience than the opinions of men, though the last is notto be disâ€" regarded. Be industriousâ€"be frugal â€"be honest; deal in perfect kindness with all who come in your way, exer- cising a neighbourly and obliging spirit in your whole intercourse, and if you do not prosper as rapidly as any of your neighbours, depend upon it you will be as happy. â€"-â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€">~Ooâ€"<â€"-â€"-â€"â€"-â€" The Utica Herald says two old la- dies troubled a conductoron the Gen- tral read, one protesting that she should die if the window were open, and the other protestirgagainstshutâ€" ting it, whep an experienced travel- ler advised the conductor to settle the “ Open the win- dow and kill one, then close it and kill the other, and we shall have peace.” An American Hotel in Paris. A Paris correspondent writes of a new undertaking. It is a.‘ gigantic new hotel which is proposed to be', erected on the spot Where formerly stood the Ministry of Finance, burn- ed down by the Commune, and the blackened ruins of which have only recently disappeared from the public eye. The enterprise is undertakcnin a purely American point of view, and looks almost wholly to American pa- tronage, b _ h for its first realization, and subse’ ,etlt success. The new. hotel itself will be called “The Wash; ington,” .ganf’dl will be planned and builtcaud-managed on American prinâ€" spits, and with a'view to the accom- modation of American tastes and re- quirements. The large and apparent- ly ever-increasing American colony in Parts are in fact the patrons on whom’the promoters of the undertak ing chiefly depend for support, and whose constant presence has suggest ed the enterprise. 4»- socâ€"mflu A Mistake. “Foamy part, I don’t believe that all literary people are slovens,” said Critic. A Very liberal lcmark, 01 course; but why need “literary people” he Slovenly at all? That dress lSot minor importance we admit ; that it is of no illll'lql‘ttluce at all, we deny. True. tllcrc'arc certain nloralists in the world who labor under the ilnplessiou that it is no‘vimgt‘ter what pel‘lple wear. or how they put tllcir‘vamlarel’.’ Such people ct‘ii’fifih’ém‘selves upâ€"Ldiey do not dross. No one doubts that the mind is more important than the body, thejewel than the setting; and yet the virtue of the one and the brilllallcy of the other are enhanced by the mode in which they are presented to the senses? Let a woman have every virtue under the sun, if she is slattcrnly, or even in- appropriate in her dress, her merits will be more than half obscured. If, being young, she is untidyâ€"or, being old, fantastic or slovcnly, her mental qualifications stand a Glance of being passed over with indifference. ~t__.* - A Pepular Folly. English journals have been crying down the use of that popular mode of speech known as slang, objecting, and with reason, to its use. It is surâ€" prising to observe how many pcoplel, whose manners are unexceptionable ill all other respects, fall into a slip- shop method of speech. To be sure, persons of real refinement and culti- vation do not catch the infection, even as individuals in firm and perfect health seldom catch contagious dis- eases. Children can be taught to eschew slang, just as they can be taught to avoid ungrammatical and profane expressions, and the most all fective teaching is in the example of their parents. There is no language more vigorous and expressive than pure Saxon, unmixed with hyperbole exaggeratio ' ' " 1’. u '- is, so to speak, an achromatic lens through which we may see things as they are in the pure light of truth.â€" Cicero says that all the great craters of his time learned of their mothers to speak their native tongue with purity, and from the cradle used cor- rect and elegant language. Surely we should not in this enlightened age be a whit behind those Roman mo- thers ill anything. Tobacco at the West. In a recent trip through the West, my attention was constantly drawn to the immense consumption of to- bacco by chewing. This mode of using the narcotic p ison is more damaging than any other. not per se, but because it is susceptible in this way of constant- use. A man smokes two hours a day. lle cths fifteen hours. “Ibo sunken cheeks and tinâ€" happy restlessness ofJbe men of the West are largely attributed to chew- Illg‘. Leaving out for the moment the besmcllrcd lips, beard, and clothing, leaving out the inconceivable filth which covers the floor of the car, hall, pew, sidewalk, everything, leaving out the sickening odor of'the breath, ill brief the unparalleled nastiness of the indulgence, we cannot shut our eyes to the poisonous, destructive in- flucnco of the habit. Tobacco is an immensely powerful poison. If a boy ten years of age, who has never used tobacco, take into his mouth a piece as large as a pea, and simply chews it, without swallowing a drop, before he has finished simply squeez- ing it between his teeth, he will break out into a cold, clammy pcr-_ spiration, his pulse will flutter, he will vomit, and falling down upon the floor, he will seem, for two hours, as if he were going to die. You will have to go far in a drug store to flnd another poison which, in the size of a pea, held in that boy's month and simply squeezed between his teeth, will produce such effects as these. The men of the West, the most vital in the world, having drafted not only the great mass of the choicest young men of the East, but thousands of the most enterprising and deter- mined young men of' Enorpe for its service, with opportunities which it makes 0ne,dizzy to try to measure, are filling not only themselves with this horrid poison, but in numberless ways are transmitting the deadly in- fluence to their offspring. How any man, who knows that every condition of the parent, whether it be an animal or a man, must influence for good or ill the off- spring. can consent to become the father of children while his system is so dominated. by this powerful nar- cotic, that an abstinence of twenty- four hours nearly sets him crazy, I can’t conceive. .Only God can fully measure the lfluencc upon the vast, teeming myri- !ads of the great Nest of the fatal-9.: When the 'man of‘dhe West can escape sufficiently long from the task of adding acres to a serious consider. ation of himself, he will then begin to lay the true foundation». of our future empireâ€"le Lewis. , ,~._._._'-... - “www.mw.” Houses are scarce in li‘rodorich, and - rents are high.

Absolutely pure iron is said to have been prepared by a Russian chemist by means of the galvanic battery. During the process a lar re quantity of hydrogen was disengaged from the ordinary iron used.

At ten mlnutcs of twelve a voice was heard at the door, calling, "' Watchman, tell me the hour ?” To which was replied, “Ten minutes of twelve; time flies.” At this subdued groans, moans and ejaculatious were heard all over the house. Then the question was repeated, and the reply was, “Nine minutes to twelve; time flies.” At each millute the question was asked and answered, and the out- bursts of the worshippers became more vociferous. At three minutes of'twelve the excitement was most fearful. Fbr the last time the inquiry was made. "' Watchman, tell me, what is the hour ?" and the l'espOnse came, “ Twelve o’clock ; time is lost in eter- nity.” For an instant there was al pause, then a prayer, interrupted by shouts and groans and means, excited women shouting “Hallelujah!

Hence it is that dyspep- sia, bilious fever, cllolerasmorbus, lung complaints, gout, dropsy, rheumatism, z“ ., f disorders, and cases of general and local debility, originally mild in type, are frequently rendered chronic and dangerous by dosing the sufferers with the alcoholic hitters advertised as medicinal stimulants.
