    Don't flatter yourself that friendship authorizes you to say disagreeable things to your intimates.

Man's mind, stretched by a new idea, never goes back to its original dimensions. Sin has many tools, but a lie is the handle which fits them all. The right to swing my fist ends where the other man’s nose begins. To be seventy years young is sometimes far more cheerful and hopeful than to be forty years old. Man has will, but woman has her way. Pretty much all the honest truth telling there is in the world is done by children. Fame usually comes to those who are thinking about something else.

    established here a large depot of supplies designed for the use of the Federal army while on its march toward Vicksburg, but General Earl Van Dorn, with a brigade of cavalry, surprised the post at daylight on the 20th of this month, burned the supplies and took 1500 prisoners. Holly Springs was the home and is the burial-place of Edward Cary Walthall (1831—1898), a Democratic member of the United States Senate in 1885—1894 and in 1895—1898. In 1836, being in that year the Phi Beta Kappa poet at Harvard University, he published his first volume of Poems, which afterwards reached a second edition. Among these earlier lyrics was “ The Last Leaf,” one of the most delicate combinations of pathos and humour in literature. His collected poetry fills three volumes. In 1856—1857 a Boston publishing house (Phillips, Sampson, and Co.) invited James Russell Lowell to edit a new magazine, which he agreed to do on condition that he could secure the assistance of Dr Holmes. By this urgent invitation the Doctor was equally surprised and flattered, for heretofore he had stood rather outside the literary coterie of Cambridge and Boston. He accepted with pleasure, and at once threw himself into the enterprise with zeal. He christened it The Atlantic Mont/fly; and, as Mr Howells afterwards said, he There were characters and incidents, but hardly a story, in the A ulocrat and the Professor.

    "Man wants but little here below."
    Little I ask; my wants are few; I only wish a hut of stone, ( a very plain brown stone will do, ) That I may call my own; - And close at hand is such a one, In yonder street that fronts the sun.
    Plain food is quite enough for me; Three courses are as good as ten; - If Nature can subsist on three, Thank Heaven for three. Amen I always thought cold victual nice; - My choice would be vanilla-ice.
    I care not much for gold or land; - Give me a mortgage here and there, - Some good bank-stock, - some note of hand, Or trifling railroad share, - I only ask that Fortune send A little more than I shall spend.
    Honors are silly toys, I know, And titles are but empty names; I would, perhaps , be Plenipo, - But only near St. James; I'm very sure I should not care To fill our Gubernator's chair.
    Jewels are bawbles; 't is a sin To care for such unfruitful things; - One good-sized diamond in a pin, - Some, not so large , in rings, - A ruby, and a pearl, or so, Will do for me; - I laugh at show.
