Thomas Shrouds, in the Salem Slandarrf, gives the following history of a family quite numerous in Monmouth County: The family of Lippincott, it is said, took its name from Luffencott, a manor and parish at the western extremity of the county of Devonshire, on the borders of Cornwall, England, which remained their property and the place of their residence from the time of King Henry 111 until the second year of King Henry V. A. 1444, or from 1243 or earlier to 1414. One of the family, John Lippincott, between 1430 and 1450, married Jane, daughter and co-heir of John Wyotwry, which brought the estate of Wyberry into the family, which continued their property until about 1775, when Henry Lippincott, the last of that branch, sold it to Charles Cartliff. There is a strong reason to believe that the first ancestor of the numerous family of Lippincotts in America was Richard Lippincott, born in Plymouth, Devonshire, England.

He emigrated to Dorchester, New England, between 1630 and 1640. In 1644 he returned to Plymouth, England, his native land, and about the yenr 1650 he RANDOM HEADINGS. Spanish women are groat H'norns. "Belles" cull a great ninny hhi1c to church. To do business a man must have dollar aud sense.

"Little Tuk" is there too, and so are "The Brave Tin Soldier" and "The Elder-Tree Mother." Of the other contributions to the number, perhaps the most noticeable are H. poem of "The Legend of St. Nicholas," with its exquisite illustration the article entitled "Something About Railroads," and giving details of the history, construction and management of the railway; and the long contribution on "One Hundred Christmaa Presents, and How to Make them."

Tho Lippincott family is one of the most numerous in the State of New Jersey. I will not attempt to follow the different branches further. James 8.

Lippincott, of Hoddonfleld, I have been informed, intends writing in full the large and interesting Lippincott family. The Vice Presidency. Our Federal system suffers no shock in the death of functionaries. Vice President Wilson's official duty was to preside in the Senate.and in constitutional contemplation to become President should President Grant cease from the office for any cause. By law the man to succeed to Mr.

Wilson's duty, and to the possibility of the Presidency, is the Senator denominated President pro tern, of the Senate, and elected such to preside, tern-, porarily, in the absence of the Vice President, or continuously, in the case of his ceasing from the office. Every session the Senate electa a President pro tern, against just such contingencies. Senator Thomas W. Ferry, of Michigan, is President pro tern of the Senate and becomes Acting Vice President of the United States, unless the Senate should choose some other Senator to fill the place, which can be done at any time, and as some seem to think will be done. He is 45 years old; is a lumber merchant ot Grand Rapids, was a House member from 1865 to 1871, and was then elected Senator vice Jacob M.

Howard, term expired. Mr. Ferry is a man of fair abilities, quiet of speech, pleasant of manner and respected by all parties. When an elected Vice President becomes President he serves ont the remainder the term. When a President pro torn, succeeds to the Presidency of the United States, the Secretary of State is required to order popular election for the office for the first Wednesday in Ueoember next suc ceeding, providing the time be six months off; other wisey the election will take place the December unless the usual quadrennial contest should intervene, in which case the Acting Executive will serve to the end qf the term, Should the Presi- cies, and should there bo no mich olucer, then the Chief-Justice of tho Supreme Court will become President, and failing here, whoever the senior Justice of that tribunal in date of commission.

The Pres idency is thus hedged in beyond the possibility of a vacancy in the legal cux. Netr ark Courier. WISDOM. Always speak tho truth. Keep good tjompany or none Live up to your engagements.

Never speak lightly of religion. Be just before you are genorons. Never play at any kind fcf game. Earn your money before you spend it. Never listen to loose or idle conversation.

When you speak to a person, look him iu the face. Kocp yourself innocent if you would be happy. Mako y.o haute to bo rich, if yon would prosper. Save when you are young, to siHsnd lion you arc old. Ever live, mMortnueH excepted, within your lucomo: Do not fasten up your gni-ments until you seo tho water.

Never run in debt unless you see a way to get out again. Tho wise man strikes twice against one aud tho same stone. No chains no unworthy to hold one ns thoso of vain regret. You had better be Doisuneil in vour blood than in your principles. Good company and good conversation are tho very sinews of virtue.

Never think that which you do for re ligion is time or mouey iuisHpcut Ho who can take advice is sometimes su perior to him who can give it. He who steadies himself between two ships Will certainly be drowned. Your character cannot be etwentially in jured except by your own nets. No one can bo happy without a friend, and no one can know what friends he hsn until he is unhappy. Canting bigotry aud carewiug criticism are usually the product of obtuse seusibili-ties and a will.

WlNTKll EVENINOS. Thoro are other amusements and ndvanbiges tolx hnd even in these hard times. There is a good deal of discussion going on just now about the schools, and the necessity or otherwise of the branches taught. Without entering into any controversy, it may not be inappropriate to remark that the long winter evenings might be.profitably sent hi studying some of those standard works iu English literature which are more frequently talked about than read. No young person can possibly lapse into utter worthlessness who has voluntarily road HhakeKpciue, chu, Addison and Pope.

If, instead of tho compelled reading of the Bible, for its religious teaching, our youth were habitually invited to its peniRiil for its sublimity of thought, its magnificent poetry, its inimitable descriptions of human nature, and its pure English, a love for it in its literary aspect might lead to an embracement of its high morality. At least our church festivals ought to afford tho material for an enlarged view of tho best authors; and readings from Dickens, Irving and the caustic and one-sided Gail Hamilton might well take the place of insipid tableaux; and a feast of (diluted) reason supplant tho display of elaliorate dresses and the gorging of hot oysters and ice cream. In a word, if parents would only perform their duty to their children, the winter season would be one of mental advancement instead of proving, as it usually dona, one of physical and moral dissipation. There js room enough for cheerfulness, for tho gratification of the fancy, for the indulgence of a fine sensibility. Poetry, in words, in action, in family sympathy, in the enjoyment of flowers, pictures and social intercourse, finds easy place where the mind and heart are not wholly absorbed cither in material gain or indefensible pleasures.

RiDK'iiLoi's Blunders. Hera wo have some rather amusing blunders of reporters and compositors. A reverend orutor closed his address with Shirley's well-known lines: "Only the actions oftbejuet. Hruell sweet aud blossom in the dust." Imagine his consternation when having complacently settled down to read the reproduced address in tho morning paper, ho found himself reported as saying iu con clusion: 'All the low actions of the iuat Swell out and blow Sam tn the dust." Chronicling an accident to a trapeze per-1 former, a reporter said "It was afterwards ascertained that the boy's collar lione was broken, but unfortunately Iris injuries are not of a dangerous description. Telling of a man who had lost his life in a riot, a Belfast paper said: "They firod two shots at him; the first killed him, but the second was not fatal." He was not blessed with two lives as was the deaf man, Tuff, "who was run down by a passenger train and killed; he was injured in a similar way a year ago." A lady journalist is rcsjmnnible lor the following juxtaposition of items: "On Monday, April the tenth, five hundred barrels of Cincinnati whisky were landed on the levee at Louisville.

On Wednesday, the twelfth, the Louisville Courier-Journal appeared without a line of editorial. It was a compositor who spoiled the subline peroration of a peace-at-any-price orator, by making him say: "Let ns then unanimously earnestly, resolutely, take our places in that increasing host, Along whose front no sabres shine, No blood-red pennons wsve. Whose banaere bear the almple line "Our duty is to shave. A little in the form of a letter made a venerable preacher who said that "clergymen should work and play too," utter in print the remarkable doctrine, that "clergymen shoold work and play A few weeks since an editorial iu this journal commenced "The mills of the gods grind slowly. When the proof came down from the composing room, the sentence read: "The mills of the god grind shoddy." Departed Almshouse Lira.

The old lady, Miss Van Bnren, a relative of the late President Von Buren, who as stated in the Journal some time sinoo, was at our County Almshouse at Snake Hill, has been taken from that place by her friends or relatives, and is now with them at Albany, New York. Warden Osborne, it is stated was informed by the friends ot the sored lady that it the county would send her to them they would take care of bar, and as the old lady was very anxious to go the Warden at his own expense furnished her with the necessary funds wherewith to make the journey, and the old lady went on her way rejoioing. It seems rather strange that this poor old woman should have been allowed to remain in an almshouse if her friends' outside were able to. support her. She won't trouble any one long however.
