HAPPIXKSS.
In our Hvos it is strange to ob
servo how much happiness is talked
o? aud how little it is understood.
Ail aro in pursuit of it, but every
one is flying in a different direction
after it. Every one wants it every
one longs for it. Still no one has
caught it yet. Each thinks he dis
covers it in' others, and wonders why
ho cannot gain it himself. They try
to follow the very same course; still
it eludes them, and they begin to
think it is a myth. A myth! how
many hopeless souls have come to
that conclusion. Thoy havo pursuod
happiness, and hko a " will o' tho
vrisp," or a "Jack o' lantern," it has
led them astray or escapod them al
together. But life is mado up of
such disappointments. We havo
them to bear, and those who bear
them the most meekly and with tho
least murmuring, are most surely the
one to moot with their reward. If
you bear tho oross you will most
surely winthoerown. Tho truth is,
there is no such thing as perfeot and
unadulterated happiness. Human
life forbids it. There Is always some
thing in the past that forbids it, or
olso thero is something in the future
that we look to longingly and fever
ishly, audyet doubt that wo will ever
attain it. So altogothor human hap
piness is a very doubtful and uncer
tain thing. Wo think when we are
young 'that life is full of ploasure,
but it is not plcasuro, really.
Wo might with as much roa
son expeetjtho world to be carpoted
with flowers, one continuous carpet
of lovely flowers, or the sky one
broad, unbroken sheet of light, so
that tho long length of years whioh
constitute an oxistenco should be
ceaselessly sweetened with joy. But
no, tho flowers bloom on an earth
varied with doserts, and rocks, and
gloomy caves. The stars sparklo and
scintillate in a shadowy iky,
chequered with clouds and often rent
with storms,-and all our delights only
serve to relievo that consciousness of
being, m which pain and pleasure,
hope and fear, love and hatred, are
mingled roost strangoly togother.
Wc, who aro tho most interested act
ors in the drama of life, are too
much occupied in tho contemplation
of our own fates, to observe, or at
least, to bo much amused by tho gro
tesque appearanco or attitudes 'of
those around us. But could we bo
disentangled from tho toils of inter
est, freed from tho intoxicating influ
ence of hope and the weakening dis
ease of fear, a thousand ludi
crous incidents would solicit our
attention. If, as some of
the ancient philosophers contend,
there aro spirits whoso amusement it
is to watch the ways of the world,
they must find in tho various inci
dents of human life, in tho fruitless
endeavors to ronder earth and heav
en, and the sometimes successful ef
forts to impart to it a resemblance to
: different place, an exhaustless
oouroe of delight, though not unmix
ed with sorrow. As it is with happi
ness, so it is with honor. Something
that all men talk about, but few un
derstand. Perhaps it is even less substantial
and distinct than oven happiness it
self. All of us enjoy a happiness at
times which, though fleeting, sheds
tho niagio of memory over tho past
and the future, that none of us would
willingly forqgo. We all think lov
ingly of tho pleasures wo havo had
in tho past, and would not be with
out those memories for all this world
could give.
A great writer has said that wo do
not seo the things as they really aro
that we judge things superficially.
The farmer supposes that tho citv
must bo the dwelling place of happi
ness, because thero he sees magnifi
cent houses elegantly furnished,
people handsomely dressed, he hears
beautiful music, and' he thinks these
people must bo happy. On tho con
trary, tho denizons of the city envy
those who lire outsido of tho city'
roar and strife whoso habit it is
to roam through tho fields of nature
where tho grain waves, and tho birds
trill a welcomo to tho owner of tho
soil, as ho passes through tho rows of
waving grain that his own industry
has brought to perfection
where the air is over rofroshed
with murmuring brooks and enriched
with tho perfume of sweet flowors
that stud its banks liko stars in tho
sky. But still happiness is delusive.
It is tho seeming lake in the wilder
ness, that allures thirsty travelers on
ly to delude them so this brilliant
mockery lead3 away thousands in
fruitless labor ovor tho desert of lifo.
Ficklo as tho wind, falso as the cloud,
it influences all men, and blesses
none.
Tho city man envies tho country
man in many things and vice versa.
Wo are, none of us, ever really con
tented and wo suppose God never
intended that we should be. At any
rate, wo must try to mako tho best of
our lives lot them be long or short,
happy or otherwise.
TIIK EUYPTIAX COXTE8T.
Tho sending to Woolwieh for ad
ditional guns, indicates that General
Wolseloy does not intend to make
haste very rapidly. A thorough
sifting of the tlispatohes shows that
tho Egyptians have forced most of
tho fighting. Tho English, to bo sure,
have annihilated them several times,
but Arabi bears annihilation with
groat good nature,, and seems to re
gard it as a rather healthful exercise
for his troops. Whenovor it is a lit
tle dull in camp, he sends his armv
out to tho front to bo annihilated.
His soldiers apparently enjoy the
sport, and will instautly forsake
Egyptian chuok-a-luok and sovon-up
to engage in it. According to Gen
eral Wolseley's dispatches,, tho moon
of Egypt, nor the moon of any other
country, never looked upon a more
ghastly sight than that presonted by
the scene of the moonshine battle at
Kassassin. Tho Egyptian dead lay
piled in bleeding heaps, the groans
of tho wounded startled the sand-fly
from his lair, and battered arms and
torn and dusty colors strewed the
ground. Multiplying tho number of
acres whioh tho dead 'covered
by tho number of men piled three
or four deep which an acre can hold,
and tho terrible slaughter may bo
faintly realizod. Yet Arabi is as vig
orous as ever. Ho holds all of the
interior lines of communication; is
daily strengthening his position at
Tol-el-Kebir, and when any fighting
takes place, it is not the' English but
ho who forces it. Wolseloy has been
ten days in getting from a littlo sta
tion a short distadco from Alexan
dria, to Kassassin, a distance less
than twenty miles, and was lately
waiting at the lattor placo for tho
Woolwich soigo guns, with which to
batter down the Egyptian fortifica
tions at Tol-el-Kebir. From pres
ent appearances Johnny Bull
reckoned without his host when
he imaginod that Wolseloy
would havo a walk over in Egypt.
All the dispatches reooived from the
seat of war come through English
ohannols, and while they are fulsome
and full of sickening praise of tho
English troops, still it requires not a
very vivid intellect to discern that
thoy aro glossed over to hide a re
pulse or a dofeat. The Egyptians
can not bo conquered without a sac
rifice of much blood and treasure,
and it is more than probable that
England will havo to withdraw tho
army of oppression from Ireland to
help conquer Arabia. Thon will
spring up Ireland, opportunity, which
wo hopo will bo taken proper advan
tage of.
The ConatrfConvention.
The Democratic Convention will
meet at Seheifl'elin's Hall this after
noon, and we hope that wisdom will
inspire its actions. If the delegates
will forsake personal predjudiccs and
heed not tho vaporings of cranks and
fools they can place before the peo
ple a ticket that all Domoorats and
many Republicans can support.
Above all thejjshould Bee that none
but bonafido Democrats received a
nomination. It will not do to hu
miliate and insult tho rank and file of
tho party by nominating for any of
fice, men who never voted a Demo
cratic ticket. There are plenty of
able, honorable men within tho Dem
ocratic ranks who aro able to bear
the banner of the party to victory.
Above all, a spirit of unity should
guido their deliberations. The man
who receives a majority of votes
should become tho unanimous choice
of the body. As in all deliberative
bodies there will bo favorites and
warm partisans, but the members of
tho convention should not allow per
sonal favoritism to go too far, and
individuals should (subordinate their
personal wishes and submit to tho
wisdom of tho majority, Tho con
vention will undoubtedly name the
next officers or Coohiso county, and
the delegates should remember that
they who sorvo the puWic interests
best, serves thoir parly best.

The Htnr .Route Thieves.
Washington, Sept. 13 At tho
opening of the court this morning
Judgo Wylio presided for the pur
pose of argument of tho motion en
tered upon on Monday last for tho
arrest of judgment in regard to
Miner and liedell, and the increase
of bonds for tho defendants as to
whom the jury failed to agree.
Brady, Vail and J. W. Dorsey were
present, and as soon as 'tho court was
called to order, Eeredoll and Miner
entered, escorted by two sheriffs.
Tho court said the matter ol bonds
would bo taken up first. He held
that subsisting bonds would continue
in force for the defendants as to
whom tho jury failed to agree wore
concorned. Merrick concurred, but
insisted that tho court increase Vail's
bonds, which tho court did, from
$5,000 to $10,000. Henkle argued
that the verdict was inconsistent,
and should be set aside. The court
said the jury were instructed that
two or more must bo found guilty.
They found two guilty and acquitted
one, Turner, who was not really
prosecuted, and one who was dead
and disagreed as to three others. It
was a mystery of the jury room what
courso tho jury travelled in reaching
a verdict, but it was a verdiot never
theless. Though there we're some
moro prominent conspirators and
some tools yet all of these were
found guilty are equally liable. The
Court might in apportioning punish
ment distinguish between dupes and
leaders. Henkle said the Court said
during the trial that Brady was the
key to tho conspiracy. The Court
replied that if thero was a conspiracy
Btady was tho key stone. He was
not essential to it. The verdict was
consistent with the theory of the in
dictment. Henkle promised to pre
sent in argument for sotting aside the
verdict and then urged that tho de
fendanis be released on bail until
motion for new trial was disposed
of.
