Not on this earth. Mis. 1 ilia S heeler Wilcox singt against tho proposition, ami claims that nno is loving, the other loved; that ouo tliinka of the world tho other of love, and that one lii-oawsko through the Highland weens, wh.lo tho other rol s over and soundly Bleeps a rather winiah, but a Very nat ural proceeding, it must bo confessed. Mrs. WiIcok Is correct, if not original. Tliero la an old 1 rem it saving that has almost become an axiom: "ll y a ton jours l'tin qui baii, I'sutre qui ten-l Is jotio," ml, n Mrs. Wilcox amgs, "This is tho yrny ol it tho wide world over." Dim aister love brother? 1 ho brother loves in return, but coldly anil mechanically. Jioca w lu lovo a husband? llo is run (ess. in ilillcrvnt, unapprcclutive. loe a husliund Jove a wife? Mio is petul.in:, domineering. Vuiul islled aud usuiilly dons, ua-Upbor rally, thoso furcatnd girments which are tho lieculiar aiiparid of m.tscuhu- ity. And so it goes. Lovo is never ro quitod with lovo. 1-ovo is never satisllod Willi lovo. Love, like J lead -Sea fruit, turns to ashes on tho hps of lovo. Mutual love may exist if ono is demonstrative, tho other reserved; if one is active, tho other passive; it ouo is noisy and bustling, tlio other silent and profound; if ouo is stirred by passion, tho other calmed by prudence; if in nno animality and in tho other spir ituality iireUotuiuates; love iu equal quan tities, trough in diiluruut qualities, (may exist, but nut otherwiso. Iive slavs love. lxvu is a tryaut that must roign sovereiuti, arbitrary, autocratic, alone. Lovo kills love, then weeps and frets nnd fumes nt the grave of dead love, and culls love back to life with passionate, piteous cries that the slaughter uiay bo repeated. What a wonderful tiling is human lovo! How weak, how strong! How evanescent, how n hiriuul How broad and comiirelu-iiMve. how cramped aud narrow! I low pure ami holy, bow mixed with tho dioss of carihly weali::uss and wickcdnctn! Tlio various systems of taxation in vogue nro really amusing. In Mexico every thing is taxeil imports, exports, com merce, agriculture, manufacture, capital and labor, everything that can be taxed is taxed. In many State.) ami cities in America the M--xic.ui rule is a. looted on the false and foolish plea of "equalizing taxation met making cadi boar a portion of the border." l.iku thu undent chan cellor who, ha ling tiiat the tax on hands could not bo collected from an impover ished populace, divided tho amount Ull-1 levied a tenth of the sum on lingers and thumbs for the puri-oso of making the burden easier to bear, Mate and county and municipality each levy a tax upon the lingers an I to s, upon tin) liea-is iiml hands and lu-ar:s ol every enterprise as though it were illegal or criminal to indigo iu these pursuits.
