Hal. I will teat the quality of the CWHt'i

affection Tor my friend. If he la ton to

her he ought not to compliment AM In thin fasLlon. Strange that thU IcaWaeu-

late Count forwhom I have had aaeta rev-

erence, should stoop 10 lowas to practice the arti of courtship with any etn but

his betrothed. Perhaps It la all a Joke,

and he Is making fun of me. I etta/lta-

bly hope he Is for dear Grace's sake. But woe be to him If he jukes with or faults

me; I will upset his dlth with Grace, and will hunt up evidence of further perfidy

and sweep him oat of the country.'

Beside Grace 1' echoed the Coant to her remark. 'Jsfii petit* ami; belleTe me,

I am more happy to bo beside yon 1'

Pretty talk for an engaged nan I You

are falthleia to Grace 1'

But you compel It; how can I help

my sentiments towards you !'

By being honest and high principled, and keeping your vows to my friend. I

am nothing to you.'

Ah, Dora, but while I admire her, I adore you.'

'Such language to me I You are mak-

ing game of me. You plainly think me a

fool. Just now you called me little,—a

term of contempt; I am not so very small.'

'Your size Is perfection; It it the little

lady that I admire. You may remember

Juan de-Hetta's poem on this subject, my nomme fa-plume.'

My memory Is poor for poems.' replied

Dora. 'I do not recollect It. Can you repeat UP'

With pleasure,' said the Count, hla

magnetic gaze on Dora as be rehearsed, with the Intonations of a master:— "Tin' akylnrk aad the nightingale, though mall

and light ol WIDI,

Yet warble eweeter In the grove than all the blrda lhat sing.

ID Sprier. Tbere'a nought ean be oompared to her throughout

the wide creation. Bo enaugeful, fay and bappy, ao free from all vex-

Tbose are my sentiments, what do you think of them V

*I think you are teasing me!* replied Dora, amused and vexed.

O no, ma petit*. I am In earnest; I

really tblnk you are of faultless size, fea-

tures and complexion, my beau Ideal of a woman.'

'That sounds doubtful,' aald Dora,

biding; her disgust; 'and how am T to

understand It? You are dreaming that 1 am Miss Gynn, or you are rehearsing

your leaaon.'

•Not ao, ma rherc, I admired yon the moment I saw you, and I looked upon

my engagement as moat unfortunate, since it might separate me from the com- panionship of the moat cb arming o, mor- tals. Pity me, dear Miss Dora, advise

me, take me kindly under your protec- tion.*

'0, yon prince of perfidy I' exclaimed

Dora, shocked at tbe result of her exper- iment. 'You are tbe same as married to

my Grace. At this rate you'll prove

yourself a monster 1'

'1*11 prot'Ot you and defend you with

my heart's blood, If need be,' replied tbe

Count, heeding not her words. Trust me, I shall ever wear your Image In my

Inmost heart. I may marry Miss Gynn,

If I moat, but you shall ever be nearer

and dearer than ahe ean be—than a wife

can be! And, ma petite, I will lavish my

heart's love and my fortune opon you, If only you will permit me.'

-You old Turk!' Indignantly thought

Dora; 'I'm thinking It's little I shall al-

low you to give me!'

'Do you know that I am engaged to

Mr. Cameron, the noblest man alive, and

that we shall soon sail for the Eastf

'The fates forbid I Why do you goT le

your afflanccd a mercbantf*

No; he Is a clergyman; he goes to

make his murk In the land that needs a thousand apostles, as a missionary; I

shall be bis assistant. I shall give ap

gladly tbe Idle life I have, led, and settle

down to usefulness.'

Let me advise yoo not to go,' said tbe

Count, sinking back. 'You'll be sluk and

die- All delicate women do, who go on missions to those barbarians. It Is fool-

ish to throw away such a beautiful life.'

After this tbe Coant was more reticent. Dora had silenced aud disarmed him by

her avowal of ber engagement to a man

who planned to live unselfishly and with

a noble purpose, and of her full sympa-

thy with such a life. As they rode home In tbe twilight, lit-

tle was said. Dora felt pained for Grace, and hoped she would bold fast her sus-

picions and 'ship* the false man, for thus

be had ptoved himself In bis conversa-

tion with ber. Before ahe slept, she made a confident

of Mrs. Byington. The-good latly was

shocked, and yet calmly said :

'I am persuaded that Grace will not

fall a victim to that man; ahe pray a too

much, and la too cool and discriminating

for that. This has been a "made match," —not of her free choosing. But your

testimony la Invaluable; write ber Imme- diately!'

'Yes, nuntle; I'll do it this very night.' TO ■« OOBTIBUKD,

cj BE trrand old Herrlmac

"*" la ever ponrlnc lu sur- plus wealth of waters,

nine hundred feet across,

over the dam thirty feet

down upon the Jagged

rocks that make the riv-

er's bed. The world's

Jubilee mljcht envy or

Imitate, but never excel thla melodious 'voice ot

many waters.'

Ou the bridge which epans the river,

near the cataract, stood the Count, as If

llatenlng to, and gazing at tbe wonderful

river. If he had a heart for majestic

aong, or an eye lor acencry, he muat

have been charmed. But he had other thoughts; his mind was lu a turmoil; he

had written Orace that he would visit

her at ber aunt's bouse thla very (lay.

She had received his letter, and Instead

of waiting for him, bad takeu a little

child borne with ber. He learned this

from one of the servants; Mrs. Byington

was out. Full of wrath at the prospect

of being baffled In bla cherished plan of

securing Graoe and ber property, lie ab-

ruptly left the house, and wending his way through street after street, paced up

and down the bridge. Could It be that

hla feint of ambassadorship liad failed?

Be feared so, and that Oraoe doubted

him more than ever. It was not heart,

but pocket fear. Mercenary, like him-

self, he determined to make capital out of the John Brown and Harper's Ferry

tragedy; he would eomehow connect his

career with tbe weal or woe of tbe coun-

try. While planning the uext movement on

bla ensnaring chess-board, MB attention

was atlrscted by two men on tbe bridge, earnestly talking as they stood facing the

fall. It was a stranger, visiting tbe city, to

whom Mr. O'Connor was acting as guide

In showing tbe lions. As the Count approached them, he

overheard Mr. O'Connor saying to Mr.

Grey, tbe stranger: •It's meal!I'll nlver forget the perilous

time we had building this dam!'

•Why so?" asked Mr. Qraj. 'Became of the accident, sir, the acci-

dent 1* The Count, congratulating himself that

Mr. O'Connor did not recognize him, lin-

gered to listen. 'What accident?' asked Mr. Grey.

'It was In October, 1847,' replied Mr.

O'Connor. 'It's yourself must have seen the account, sir; the papers made great

sales out of the accident. I was one of

the workmen and will acquaint you how It happened with great pleasure. We

bad finished 300 feet of tbe dam on the

south Bide, and 100 feet on the north

side,' pointing lelt and right as he spoke,

'mid the water was sweeping over the

part that wasn't finished, five hundred

feet right In the middle, you perceive. Question was, sir, how to tlnUh theatruo-

ture. The water, three feet above Ita

usual level and rising rapidly, made It a

difficult Job. If possible. It must be com- pleted immediately, as the Bay State

Mills were nearly ready for tbe ma-

chinery, and tbo water power would be

needed as soon as it could be supplied.

•But how did you workmen menage to

build the dam, when the water was

rising F ■Well, sir, It was an expeilment; we

were driven to do it. Tbe power was

wanted In the new mills so badly thai

Capt Bigelow, the boas, thought he'd

better risk It, and we workmen strained

every nerve to please him, aud have the

dam built In time.' •If I could IK? allowed to give an opin-

ion,' said tbe Count, verging nearer, 'I

should say It was presumptuous^*

'Faltb, an' It was, stranger!' replied

Mr. O'Connor, scarcely looking at blm, 'but we waa driven to do It. Five hun-

dred feet to build In tbe midst of a fresh-

etl We could not work In the water, so we settled a coffer dam or a box of tim-

ber, In the bed of the river to keep away tbe water so that we could tmtld tbe un finished part on a level with the finished

part. Twenty workman of us had the cofier* dam in Ita place, and braoed as tare as f<M prate, we were pot- ting down flash-boards, to raise the water

high enough to flow over the rtnlahed

part of the dam, and lave the old bed

dry. Capt. Blgelow was the chief engi-

neer, and Mr. L. M. Wright had charge of the wood work. They were helping

us with might and main, and planks and

planks were fastened to place. Up, up,

rose the water, almost high enough to

run over the finished wings, when all at

once, without a moment's warning, a part

of the coffer dam slipped way, and tbe

aectlou on which we were at work, rose

upon the surface like a cork, and away

we went! The rushing flood swept fif- teen of us In the midst of broken timbers,

thirty feet down upon tbose rocks!' •I declare!* cried Mr . Grey. 'All killed

but you, I suppose r'

'No, air; strangely enough, only two

were killed, two badly hurt, and three

slightly Injured!*

'So much for tempting Providence, as

the saying Is,' said Mr. Grey.

'It's mesllf belayed a kind Providence

took oare of tbe matter,' continued Mr. O'Connor. 'In half an hour after our

plunge the whole town had scrambled

down to the rtver-slde, for everybody

was on tiptoe to bavo tbe dam built, stBrt

up the great mills, and business, and

raise the value of property. In a half

hour, before we bad fairly recovered our- selves, robbed open our eyes and got our

clothes dry,—those of us that were alive

and well,—another section of tbe cofler

dam gave way, where thirty men were at

work when our break happened. Had

this gone when ours did, most of them

would have been killed, as they were

busy upon the framework tinder the

crest of tbe dam.'

'That was kindly ordered, certainly,' said Mr. Grey, 'since you would go

ahead In tbe face of Providence.'

That Isn't all,' said Mr. O'Connor;

'there was another Interposition greater

nor that. Sure, an' you remlmber tbe powerful rain up country and all around,

about that time, and the river was swell-

ing and roaring, and looking as grand as

the ocean In a storm. Next morning It

was a sight to see, sweeping like tbe great flood tbat it was, and we discov-

ered that If our coffer dam works bad held, and we bad poured this mighty tor-

rent over the wings of thedsm all tbe

lower part of the town would have been swept away In the darkness of tbe

night 1'

'The accident then was precautionary, and a most happ; one,'aald tbe stranger,

'since It saved life and property. How

true It Is that man proposes, and God dis-

poses.'

'Faith, and you're right, sir,' said O'- Connor; then turning; to the Count, he

regarded him searcttlngly, as the stranger

was talking to a citizen who came up at

the instant.

'It's like I've seen you before, Jlst, or

gome of your friends t"

'What sir?' tuughilly asked the Count.

'Could I be ao bold as to call your name Burc.alrf*

'Hun! No, tbat Isn't within a league of

my name 1 I am Count Still.nK Y

'Bedad, but It's meallf could take me

oath you waa the father of little Mary

Burt, my wife's boarder, you favors her tbat strongly.*

'Never saw or heard of ber,' burst from

the truthful Count. 'You must labor un-

der a diseased Imagination or poor eye-

Bight, seeing resemblances where there

are none.*

'In troth, but it's mesllf Is nlver mis-

taken, and me eye Is keen as tbe eagle's. It's yersetf Is her father, dacent man, If

yer name la Stilling, and ye bez a Count.

The child Is sore alck at me bouse, the

day, with the Infantum cholery, aod

whose money Is to pay the bills, manf

'Nonsense!' shouted the Count, turn-

ing pale. 'If you've picked up a strange

child, and she's sick In your bouae, put her into the hospital where she belongs.

See here, sir, II yon don't quit insulting me I must band you over to the police 1'

and he moved hastily off, as If to execute his threat.

•Bedad, but two can play at that

game,' returned O'Connor, to the Count'a parting words. 'And Ita under arrest

yct'll be presently on the old score. It's mesllf will consult with tbe authorltiea

directly,' and with ihls threat, for which the Count was no wiser, he went bis

way. XXIX.

CHECKMATED.

As the Count reached the opposite end

of the bridge, hi*- attention was attracted

by a jaunty little lady approaching,

whose airy motions and gay coloring seemed familiar.

The butterfly that happened to flit In tbe Count'a way, was our friend, Dora

Lee. He was the last person she expect-

ed to see, aa she thought him In Wash* Ington. Grace gone, and the Count ar-

rived. It was a new situation of affairs,

and Dora admired surprises.

'I am most bappy to meet you.'hesald, hastening to greet ber. In his Insinuating

style. He conld be when it suited him, "The mildest mannered man, Tbat ever ■muled ehlp or ent a throat."

Thank you,' replied Dora to his cor-

dial words, I thought you were abroad

and not to return at present. What a sur-

prise It will i'c to Grace.'

'Ah, yes Indeed. And you seem In the

same dilemma with myself—a little too

late.'

'Yes, sir, I had just reached auntie's, and finding Grace gone, and nobody at

home, camo out for a walk, and to amuse

myself till tea time. I am glad to meet

you.'

'Thank you. Miss Dora; It Is mostop-

portune. I am a lonely, sad man this af- ternoon. Great care, hard atudy, and

prets of bualneas bave worn on my vig-

orous health, and I came here for a few

hours' recreation, hoping to find Miss

Gynn. May I ask If you will accompany

me liia ride?'

'A ride, by all means,' answered tbe

piquant Dora, '1 never refuse a chance to ridel I will go for dear Grace's sake,

and do my best to atone for her absence,

since you are so much Indisposed, sir.'

'Ten thousand* thanks!' besmlngly said tbe Count.

A carriage empty from tbe depot was passing; tbe Count stopped it* and after

a few worda with the driver, assisted Do- ra In, warmly pressing ber little band.

Wnat does the man mean?' thought

she, as ahe took her seat. 'He Is abtent-

mlnded and takes ruo for his adorable

Grace. That hand-pressure was meant for you, darling Oracle, and tbe next

time I meet you I'll pass It over to you

with Interest.'

' Mu petite amfe,' said tbe Count, gazing

at Dora' admiringly, aa tbe hack rolled

away on the Andover road. 'It Is mar-

velous how you preserve a perfect com- plexion. Yours Is the happy blending of

pink and white, the true ciieur-de-rose.

Nature gives you that which others vain- ly seek In art.'

Dora was startled still more, and did

not admire tbe gentleman's taste in this

abrupt onalaugbt of compliment.

'Was the Count a faithless lover?'

'You are fresh from tbe blarney atone,

sir Count,'demurely replied Dora. 'Not so; but I am your sincere and de-

vout admirer, and bave long desired to

tell you so.'

'O, that's a great mistake, >lr; you are dreaming, and think yourself besldo

PULPIT PARAGRAPHS.

Tbe charming weather on Monday drew large numbers of people to the various churches. The sermons preached by tbe venous clergy- men lu the city were very diversified in char- acter as will be seen from the digest giveo.

LAWBBKCS STBKST.

In tbe forenoon the pastor, Rev. C.B, F'abcr, preached a sermon from Matt, all.—12 j " Wherefore It Is iawfnt lo do well on tbe Sab- bath day." Tbo euijorl suggested by the text was "tbe proper Improvement of tbo Lord's day," 1st, of the design of tbe Lord's day ; being 1st to commemorate the resurrection <" Jasui, tbe test fact of Curlstlanlty; 2 nl, a day lor rest; 3rd, a day for worship; l li, s day for spiritual UsiructloD; 5th, a day to lay up strength far the trials of tbe week; 6tb, a day for all holy charities and for aggresatvs work upon tbe ampin ol darkness and Satan. Sec- ondly I Tba best Improvement of tbe Sabbath ; lit, spend it la tbe worship of God with His people; 3d, in family worship and religious In- struction t 3d, fa efforts to reach those without the Influence of tbe Gospel by mission school., Bible reading, prayer, singing and instruction; 4th, In ministering to ths necessities of tbo needy; 3'-b, spend it In doing good to ibo bod- las, souls and lives of men; make It tba day to show love for men In trying to bring them nearer to God and Ood nearer to tbatn. Hon- est efforts to do good to all men will truly sanctify tba Lord's day. Tbe discourse was vary practical and able.

UxiTiXUH.

In Ibe forenoon the raitor of Ibis church, Rev, C- K. llaydon, who has rceenilr beco called to occupy the pulpit, and who Is certain- ly as able and as eloquent aa be was announce,! lobe, delivered an essay on the subject of ibe perfection of the laws made by God for tbe government of tbe universe, suggested by ibe Ttb vans or the xli. Psslm. " Tba law of tbe Lord Is perfect." Tbe points brought out were that tba laws which govern tbe natural world are fixed and unchangeable i that I bey were designed to be so; tbat if the designs of Ood wars frustrated by man God Is Imperrect; the foundation of science rests upan the Immuta- bility of i;,)d'alaws; lo belleva in the possi- bility of their balog changed was an evidence of a want of faltb In God. Tho discourse abounded In beautiful Imagery: it was preg- nant with thought, and gave evidence of a deep attention on the part ot the speaker to the subject. In the evening Rev. John H. Clif- ford, of North Andover, delivered a dlseourse on tbe " losufflctency of ibe church," being an answer to the sermon of the Rev. Mr. Park, of tbe Central Coegrsgailonal church, delivered on Fail Day. Mr. Park's sermon was first re viewed, after which It was commented upon at length, tho speaker taking a stand diametrical- ly opposite lo that taken by Mr. Park on the subject, llu remaiked of Mr. Park's sermon, tbal it was as facile la argument as It was ttsr- lie la iuggestiven.es*, and was a fair specimen of the general rhn of sermons preached by ministers holding similar views. The argu- ment of Mr. Clifford was tbat the world was In advance of tbe church, and tbal tbo church would never draw ibe world lo It; tbe world was the mountain aad tbe church Mahomet, therefore the church mnit go lo ths world.

Tbo discourse waa not very remaika-ile '» depth. The singing by the cbolr during (he day was excellent.

GBACR EriicorAL. There was as usual a large attendaoce at this

church In tba forenoon. Tbe Be v. Dr. Pack- ard occupied lha pulpit, aod preacbod a ser- mon from Psalm exxl.—V: "I will walk be- fore tbe Lord to tbe land of tbe living." The subject suggested was the duty of confessing Christ before men. The speaker took tbe ground that tbe Christian's duty was to show by his walk and cot. v rsatlon his high calling. Tbe conditions of salvation were repentance, faltb, confessing and a holy life. The subject was ably treated.

CaKTB.lt CuXOKEOATtOKlL. The pastor. Bar. Mr. Park, preached the

forenoon sermon at (bis church from the test: Deuteronomy xxxll— 29i "0 that tbsy were wise, that they understood tbls, that they wonld consider their latter end." Tba subject was Death, end suggested tbe following points : Man's unwillingness to consider tbe subject ol death i the origin of death was sin: sin slays tbe race. It Is only for transgressors tbat wo die. Adam was the author of lite and death to tbe world. Tbe positive certainly of death; there Is no escape Trom it; It breaks down Ibe pn'sce or the rlcb, and tba hat of tbe poor. All the wisdom of ibe world cannot tell ibe time of death. To Ibe Christian tbo result* Of death are glorious; for blm to die Is to leave tears, panga, pains and woo, aad fly to tba Di- vine bosom. He referred at some length to the last hoars ot chrlstisns, showing that the glory of tbe eternal world frequently bunt upon than la the boar of their departure. Tbe con- gregation was large,

PSKSBTTBRUM.

la the absence of ibo Rov. John Hogg, tbe pulpit at this place was supplied on Sunday, by Rev. O. M. Clark, of East Boston, who preached a sermon from the text, Joshua, xlv— Hi "He (Caleb) wholly followed tbo Lord God of Israel." The speaker referred at some length to tbe value of biographical literature; much instruction could be drawn from it, while it stimulated tbe reader to follow the ex ample of model man. He tneUnced sack men ai Washington, the old testament worthies, Abraham, Moses aod Jacob, but tbe Ufa of Christ especially was tbo chief example. Tbe history of Caleb, coald not, bo said, be read without benefit; he was lofty-minded and he- roic, and followed tbe Lord wholly. The les- son derived from hla life was: ttt; Following the Lord Implies ibo renunciation ol evil, lha forsaking of all sinful practical. 31; Forsaking all sinful associates, also all ungodly attach- ments; religion relates to the heart as well a* the lifts. We mn*t not only forsake evil, hat follow good. 11; This coarse will procure the appellation of honorable, and secure peace In this world; It will promote the glory of God, and rocare for m a portion In (be good land of which tbe Canaan which Caleb was allowed to enjoy was a type.

RlYKBSIDK M1SBIOK ClIAl'KI,

In the morning tbe usual services wera bald In thla place. J. B. Crosttey, who Is laboring as mhslonary in tbe neighborhood, occupied Ibe d«ik, the subject being 'Temptation," founded on Genesis III- 4, S. Sabbath School la the afternoon,—full attendance and excel- lent attention, lathe evening a praise moat- ing was hold. There was a good attendance both morning and evening.

SOUTH COBOBKOATIOHAL.

Then Is no regular pastor at this church at preseat; tbe pulpit last Sunday was supplied by Mr. A. T. Clark, of Andover seminary, who is on trial for'the office of pastor, and who preached an excellent sermon from Psalms xxxlv-i;: "Tbls poor man cried, and tbe Lord beard blm, and saved him out or a'l hla troub- le*. In tho afternoon Mr. Clark preached a aetmon from Revelation 1—18; "I am be that broth and waa dead, aod behold I am alive foravermoro, Amen; and have tho keys of hall and death." Tha sermon in the afternoon bad •special bearing on tbe last clause of ths verse, "I have tbe keja of ball and death," aad tbe discourse was excellent for ao young a preacher.

UXIVKUAMBT. At tbe TJnivarsaliet church tba usual fore-

noon service wai despensad with, and Mr. Tolles, the Superintendent of the Little Wan- derers' Home, of Boston, conducted the morn ing exercises. Right of ihe "Little Wanderers' were present, and sang acveral piece*. Mr Tolles gave a history of tbe Home, which va established about seveo years ago, showing tbe work It bad accomplished; ths exert lies were vary Interesting. In ibo afternoon Mr. Tolles, with tba llitie ones, visited tba Lawrence street church, and in the evening the Elliot cbnrch, and conducted similar services.

FBKE BAPTIST.

Rev. W. 8. Siockbridge, of Gardiner, Me preached at thla church on Sunday. Hn Is on trial, and wo understand so popu lar tbat be is likely to be called. Owing to a recent cold, which baa affected bis throat, bis articulation I* not so dlailact as It would otherwlae be. II s subject on Sunday was, "Ptllowsblp with Christ," which was dlacouraud upon wlih much acceptance.

FIUST Barrier.

There wsa a very large congregation lo tbe morning. The Pastor, Rev. Mr. Pldge, selected aa bis text, tbo list and ild vorses ol the lOih chapter of Luke: "And Jssns answered and said onto ber, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many (blngs; hut one thing Is needful: end Mary hstb cboien tbat good part that ahall not be taken away from her." Tbe leaaon drawn Trom tbe text was ot (he superiority of spiritual over worldly minded- noes; Manba, careful as she was for tbe com- fort or ber soul, made not ao good a choice aa Mary, who sal at tha feet of Jesue and drank lo bis words of whdom. Manba was a typo of many Christian-, careful and troubled about so many worldly matters as to bare little time for cultivating the Christian graces and parity of heart. Watbootd raibor,l.ka Mary, choose tbo "one thing needfu1," that "cannot be tak- en away" from us.

At lb« close of ibe umal services tbe ordi- nance of baptism was administered to two new converts.

HAVBBBIU STHBKT METHODIST.

An able sermon was p'eacbrd fn the morn- ing by Rev. Dr. Barrows, now the rrgnlar pas- tor of thla church, from Nmubrri xlv. 21: "Out my servant Citeb, becaa'e he bad another spirit with him, and followed me fully, him will 1 bring unto the laod whereunlo be went, and bla seed shall possess It."

ST. Joim'a BrisooraL, la the abrence of Rev. J. II. Lee, tbe rector

of thla church, R«v. KM. M. (Justice, rector of St. Poter'a, Salem, prrached an excellent aer- mon from the text John xx. 27: "Then saltb he to Thomas, Reach blihcr ihy Anger, aad be- hold my hands: and reach hither thy hand, and thrust It Into my side; and be not faith led but believing." Mr. Gushes also officiated in tbe evening.

BLIOT OowauxnATieXAL.

The usuel forenoon disco tine was preached by tbe Rev. Mr. Monger, from tha text: Acts xvil. —23. " For as t pissed by aod beheld yonr devotions I found aa altar with this in- scrlpdon, To THS ITXKKOWN GOD, whom therefore ye Ignorsntly worship blm declare I unto you." lo his discourse he said that dif- ferent nations Lai different conceptions or ibo duty. The habits of a nation Influenced tlteh conception of a supreme being; lha Athenians he said, on Paul's visit had almost arrived at a true conception of Uod as might bo seen from

Panl's address to them; tha discourse touched ably upon tha conception the Christian world had of (bo (rue Ood. The singing during tba day was as usnal of an excellent character.

SECOND BATTIST.

Rev. Mr- DsWlit, (be revival preacher who has accomplished lo much good recently in tbls city, occupied the pulpit at this church during Sunday. His discourse In the forenoon was from Corlntblaos 1.2J: "If any man love noi tho Lord Jesus Christ, let him be Anathe- ma Maren-atba." There waa a large somber present, aod tbe discourse waa vary Impressive. In the afternoon tba sermon was from Isaiah xlv. 8: "Dropdown, ys heavens, from above, and let tha ikies pear down rlgbteOwoaaas; let the earth open, and 1st them bring forth salva- tion, aad lot righteousness spring ap ta«etker | I the Lord hare treated It.

How true the sal Ing, tho way ol ibe transgressor Is bard.

BEBOHBR OH OREBD8-

Thtt Brooklyn Divine Is somswhst

given to extraordinary utterances, but on Sunday morning, he Indulged In a criti-

cism upon the Cambridge Confession of

his own denomination, with even more

than ordinary snd startling freedom.

Tbe Globe has a full, special report of

tbls sermon, In which Mr. Beeeher's anathemas were directed against tbe Cambridge Confession of Faith, declar-

ing, among other things, that be would

prefer being an atheist than follow suob a faith,not withstanding he acknowledged a was tha faith of his fathers, gad the

foundation upon which waja raised tbe

stnretnra of tbo era*, at tbe New Eng-

land Congregational chutwhai. The most obnoxious clause in that confession

appeared to be the following, which the reverend gentleman read with a terrible

empbaals; " By the deoree of Ood, snd for the manifestation of his glory, some

men and some angels are predestined lo

everlasting ruin, and some are foreor-

dained to everlasting death." Ths pain-

fully Intense Interest with which tbe con-

gregation drank In the terrible words, wss hardly diverted by the criticism

whlob followed It, which wss simply,

" Tbat Is rather rough. Is It not!" He went on reading until he eame to tbe fol-

lowing: " These angels and men, thus

predestinated and foreordained, are fixed

loan unchangeable destiny; their num- ber Is certain and defined, and cannot be

Increased or diminished." "That la

whst you may call a tight fit," aald tbe

eloquent commentator. Tbe effect ol the vernacular waa Instantly perceptible.

The mental tension superinduced by (be effort of Judging If they (the Plymouth

Church congregation) were among the

predestinated and foreordained was

agreeably relaxed Into tbat Innocent

merry laughter cultivated In tbe Bethel. Mr. Beeoher added: " If I wore left to

choose between absolute Infidelity and

atheism, and the acceptance of a Ood

who has preordained and predestinated

an Innumerable host of 1ft* areaiures to torments, to pains, and to eternal death

for His praise and Ills glory, why, rath- er than accept auch an infernal deiiy 1

would bean atheist aud I would glory

therein" A murmur of suppressed upplanae fol-

lowed this bold prunuiicUmttnto Mr. Beeoher then turned to the sermon* of Dr. Blnney, preached from the same pul-

pit. In oueof which Dr. Blnney aaUl lhat

there were those sluing before him who

In the eternal ages should Buffer more of

tbe torments of tbe damned than the volume Af all that waa painful, all tbat

was dreadful to the souls then waiting In hell. Mr. Beeoher aald; "It la to a Be. lag like tbls tbat we say, ' Our Father.'

Why- If there were one soul that was predestined by Blm to Buob a hopeless

Inheritance of woe, I would say ' Our Fiend'—not' Our Frther." Tbose words

coming from a man who Is regarded by

his congregation with almost tbe ssme trust and reverence with which tliu an-

cient prophets Inspired their followers,

created tbe most Intenso excitement. It would be difficult to describe- tbe breath- less Interest with which every word was

watched as It fell from the Hpa of (he

great preacher. Th ■ sermon seemed

electric. The boldnesa of the words that Bought to overthrow what had been for-

mally declared to be the faith of the Cal-

vlnlstlc Church only ten years ago, would

seem heretical If tbe source from which

they Issued did not forbid the Idea.

I have a frlMid whose room, not far from mine, I aometlmea vtalt at theelotoofday, Of all 1 know, 1 bave no nobler frland, Nor one whose lire Is higher la Its aim; And often, in tha mellow, waning li«bt, We sit and talk of scenes sad ft leads of old: And be haa aometimee told me of his life.

of itidellulteneat in regard to probable or possible cost, li fairly and we think satls- ractorlly met by tbe Mayor and Alder- | The

men, In their statement publiabed In

ing of necessary power for the authori-

zation of such plans and estimates the

present season as to enable a future gov- ernment to wisely and understaudlngly

prosecute the undertaking, and this cer-

tainly, no one not utterly opposed to the introduction of water upon any condi-

tions, can object to. We are glad to announce this opinion

from the city authorities, as the want ol positive Information was begetting a de-

gree of llmlduess likely to grow Into ac-

tive opposition. There Is certainly, no

oni necessity of our city, so great as that

ni water; nothing would In so widen

To the /nitiihii-iiit.i of Aniiorer: The Memorial Hall Is rapldlr approaching com-

pletion, and will be ready for dedication early in September. It cannot longer be astd that Andover haa ralaed no monumeul Io her sons, who In Ihe

or danger offered Ihe highest **erlrlce for Ihe general good. Tbelr memory la ever freab In our hearts,and the devotion of their romradea who are atlll spared can ucver he forgotten by ua. Hut this solid memorial shall more surely traosmlt lo our descendants the record of their patriotism, anil will be to ua an ever preaent incitement to gener- ous aervlee.

The Truatee*, In entering on Ihe dullra asalgncd them by the town, would eipre** Ihelr anllafacllon that the way ha* been ao thoroughly prepared for ihemby the aaslduoualaboraof the building com- mlltee.

But while we njolco in being able to eongratu late the town on having aceured an endowment for tbla memorial Inatllutlon, through tbe gtrta oT lum ■ ored cltixens, aud ny large contributions from the Inhabitant! generally, It Is still our duly to point lo the urgent need of eOftffmted co operation on the port of tbe Inhabitants, If ihla enterprise ia lo be siecesafully carried forward, and If tbe Library conncclod with It la to accomplish ita Jegitlmate end*, and to eallffy Ihe mmaonaolo demand* of the public.

A town library, for Ihe free use of all the Inliabt- tnnla, I* the crowning accompaniment of our free school i-i i-i' in. At thla day, end to a reading peo- ple like thai of Andover, uo argument can be needed lo set forth ila value. And we eaunut doubt lhat Ills iho determination of Ik* town to go on with the work, In all It* depailmiuiH, which hsa been so li ipplly Inaugurated.

Accordingly, we now appeal to uur ultiieca for additional gifts, and aollclt douatlon* both for the Ifemorlal Room and for lb* Library. For the for- mer we deilre to receive memorials of the war, of all kind*, alao works of art and other object* of Iotoreat appropriate to auch a place. Kor the Li- brary, we oak donatlone of money and of books; and It .la hoped that thla library may be made the •pedal repoaltory of printed s* well u manu. aorlpt documents relating to Ihe history of Ando-

and of Andover fa mi lie*. Every old or new pamphlet written by any of our clliiene, or touch- ing upon the affairs of this ancient town, will be very acceptable.

In particular, we would direct attention to tho want* of the reading room. For Ihla department f Ihe Library exoluetvcly, a considerable number

of the leading newspapers aad of Ihe more popn- perlodlcals will be needed. Bat no funds have

yet been futnlahsd for thla purpose. (lifts of the kind* designated, will bo welcome a

all time*; but It haa occurred to tb* TrusUna thst tbe approaching eunlveraary of Decoration Day,

Huh of May, will be a peculiarly fit occasion on which to bring together theoe eootrlbnliona for the enrichment of an Inatltutiou which 1* designed to perpetuate the memory of Ihe same heroes whoae gravea on that day are decorated afresh. Slay we not properly Introduce thla new rite among thoae for which the day haa prevlouety been aet apart? And aball not the return or tho day, from year to year, be greeted by our cltlsena a* a favorable opportunity for memorial offerings to thia □all'

Contributions of money may he placed In the hands uf tho Treasurer, Samuel Raymond, at any lime; and he will bo found at thu town hall oa Decoration Day. Book* and other articles may bo depoalted lot the Selectmen's room. Donors are requested to attach their namca to their gtfl*, thai tbey msy In all MSJSJ receive ao acknowledgement from tbe Secretary, wbo will alao promptly re- turn, with due acknowledgement, all gllta which,

Uoveruor YVaatiburn, hag declined an Invitation to deliver tho annunl addred.* before Ihu Society of Inquiry of the An dover Theological Seminary, at the annl. versary in June.

The tilm in of Are on Sabhath evening, waa occasioned by the burning of brush ou land of the Frye siaterg, in North An- dover, near the " Fellows place."

Constable Clark informs us that Charles Cocaneclt, a Gertuau or the Wu. !■,» Isli waa a few itu.y.-i Blnce swindled outol «130 by sotne of his countrymen. It ap- pears that twoof tbo fellows came to his place ostensibly for the purpose of buy- ing his farm, which they bad understood was for sale. While they were there a third party, dressed as a newly arrived iiuiiii-ciiiit, made his appearance and a*k- ed for bread and water and told a pitiful story. taonjr other things stating that he had 94,500 worlli of cloths, which he had Imported and which were In the Boston Custom House, and he wished to ohtuln $1.1(1 with which he could pay the duty and release hla stock. That he bad two valuable gold watches sent by him to his brother and sister In (his country which were worth $.100, and he would give them u.-, security for the amount, and pay $20 for Ita uso one day. Mr. Cocaneck was Induced to go and borrow the re- quired sum for iiim and took tbe watchea for security. The awlndlcra have not since been heard from and the watches left aa security aro not considered worth $10.

An account of the funeral of Dr. Ezra Abbot, a native of this town, at CaotoD, laat week, la published tu the lloaton Tvnntcripi. It was attended by tbe el tl- zena generally. The ceremonies at tbe church were conducted by tho pastor of tho church, Rev. George F. Tiper, and Rev. Dr. Morrison, of Milton.

Rev. If r. Piper baaed his remarks an Col. I- " The Beloved l'hyalalan," and woe a cartful, Jual analysis of the character 0f the deceased, and a feeling and eloquent tribute to his many virtuea.

The students of the Theological Semi- nary arc mnkiug arrangements for a 1'nii! -c of lectuns for the csmlng reason. The course will be ou the plan formerly pursued; surplus funds to be devoted to extra entertainments. They have al- ready fecitred the service* of Mr. Hep- worth, Prof. Cliurchlll, Get).

Mr. Hamuel A. Hitchcock of Urlmfleld, Mass., tas presented to the Treasurer of the Theolofclcal Seminary In this town the Bum of 850,000. llehad previously given $75,000 to the same Institution.

Uev. Robert Collycr, of Chicago, de- livered his popular lecture on "Clear grit," at the town hall, on Tuesday even- ing. Tho lecture was excellent, but we regret lo say tho audience was small. It is somewhat myBterious that ono of tho most distinguished lecturers in the country should draw less than 150 hear- ers in n place with a world wide reputa- tion for Ita literary and scientific advan- tages, and where five hundred persons nt least arc constantly gathered from abroad to receive instruction.

There will be n Younjr PtJO-pIe't Union Prayer Meeting In Ihe lower room of I he Town Hall, on Sunday nit ut half past five o'clock. Mr. Tiltou, principal of Phillips Academy, will conduct It. AH are cordially invited.

•■if- that nature employe In the movement of the greBt irlnciers or lec rivers of lofty mountains. A very instructive experi- mental Illustration of fbls singular prop- erty may be performed by placing a piece of Ice on coarse wire gauze, and submit- ting It to pressure, when It slowly passes through Hie gauze nnd reunites on the other side, forming a solid block, marked with lines of air-bubbles that correspond to the tracks through which the wires bavo passed.

The formation and preservation of Ice In such countries as Bengal, whero the temperature rarely fulls below 30degrees

Is accomplished through the agency of Ice-fields. The principle Involved is to secure the most rapid radiation ond iraporation possible. Tills is done by

placing a thin stratum of water In shal- low dishes of porous earthenware, which are arranged at sunset side by side on a bed of perfectly dry straw; the water in tbe vessels Is quickly cooled, partly by radiation to tlio sky, ond partly by evap- oration through the porous material of which the di.-hf- are made, and Ico soon forms on the surface of (he liquid. It Is said that on nights when the wind Is fa- vorable, and the evaporation and conse- quent cooling thereby hastened. It Is no uncommon occurrence to secure five tons of Ice per acre from these fields.

DUST IN CITIES.

Professor Tyndall states that almost the whole of the dust in rooms 1B of or- ganic origin, nnd prominent among these orgnnic bodies is horso manure. The removal of this ofTensivo contami- nation from the air of Infected localities, lias been the subject of careful experi- ment and investigation by the London Board of Health. Not only have the droppings been taken Irom the streets, but tbo surfaces of the pavements liavo also been purified by jets of water thrown by steam power, whereby nil tho crevi- ces between thu stones forming tho pavements have been cleansed. In Borne districts tho practice has been adopted of covering nil surfaces that are soaked with foul organic materials with a layer of fresh earth. This lias been attended with tbo most satisfactory re- sults. Tho Val do Travors asphalt pavement Is however regarded by Sir, Joseph Whit worth, the grcM. English authority on all questions connected with street economy, nB offering the most promising relief from such organio dust, since its introduction will tend to hnBten tbo employment of hot-nlr engines with India rubber tires for all tho purposes of street trafllc, and tho aourco or cauBQ of the contamination will of necessity disappear.—Scrt'iiier's for May. »«■»—■■♦——

An agreement has atlost been reached by tlio Senate and House on tlio free tea and coffee bill. All importations of either article after tbo first of July, to- gether with tbo amount in bond nt that time, will bo free of duty. Tbo revenue question has been vory much simplified by this net. A general reduction of tbo tariff is impossible if we are to preserve the balanoo between national receipts and expenditures. The reduction or taxation that lias been agreod upon, is ono in the Interest of the people as a whole. It olioapens articles which havo become necessities to nearly every fami- ly in tho country. Our manufacturers need fear no longer that they are to loso the benefits of tho protection they bavo heretofore enjoyed, and working-men may lay aside any apprehensions that tho alternative of a stoppage of factories or a reduction of wages will be presented to them. We should suppose that tho result of tho action of tho House yester- day would puzzle the Cincinnati conven- tion somewhat, adding to the difficulty of determining whether It will bo expe- dient to pass a decided free-trade reso- lution or not, However, that Is ito af- fair and not oun.~Advertiser.

To THE POINT.—Four years ago I commenced business, adopting the one price system. "Knowing ones" ■hook their heads. "Ah, he can never make it pay ; " and they haTe waited for my "going up," that thoy might have ths satisfaction of saving ■ I told you so." Let them wait. Thanks to a discerning public, I am on my feet, and better prepared to do business than ever. I have no occasion for "closing out" or ' clear- ing off" sales, as I sell at low prices all the year round ; absolutely, pos- itively, and unmistakably, one price.

Ladies, send your children or hus- bands if you cannot come yourselves; we serve them all alike. 'J lie little four year old, who can barely lisp " Mother wants a Spool of Cotton," or the great green fellow of a hus- band who don't know the difference between a "pearl" or a "pot" but- ton, buy just as cheap as the most inveterate shopper.

THE COUNT DiaCUeSXD.

BE father of Uraee, Mr. Oynn, was a substanttal Engllahmati, who had

taken a fancy to the

Count, mainly because

he was from the old

country. Heist In the

porch of his elegant res-

idence, at even, smoking; his superb cigar, and

muslDg on the brilliant

prospects of his Idolised daughter. He

wss a lordly, well-fed old gentleman,—

king of his own realm, which comprised the rich mills of Gynnboro, and a beauti-

ful villa.

As the back stopped, he went down the steps to hand out his daughter. He was

BOftened and surprised. •Bless me, Grace, darling, is It you. In-

deed? Welcome home, child. Glad you

love the old place well enough to come a

little sooner than we expected.'

'Thank you, father,' said Grace, as she kissed him affectionately. 'There Is no

place like home. Where's motherf

Ihey entered the pleasant home room,

little Elsae following. 'Your mother Is In the kitchen, teach-

ing her new servant the mystery ol sup- per getting. But what baggage U this?

Where did that ohild come from?'

'O, this Is my little friend Elsae. Come

sad speak to my good father, little one.' But the child hung- back. Fathers were

dreadful beings In her view—Ihe very

name called up horrible memories.

'Humph,* growled Mr Oynn; 'you al-

ways was tugging home some mangy lit- tly kitten I'

-But father, this Is a darling tittle itlrl, and she has come home to keep me com-

pany for awhile. Who doe* she resem-

ble?' 'Let me see. HI 'ave 'ardly taken hob-

scrvatloo.' Mr. tiynn w|l fioni Ymk-

shlre, and at times fell Into hl« old dla-

Ipct. He put on his glasses, drew near the child, and carefully scanned her fea-

tures. 'She bis hof kin to CountStllllng.

child, lit should say, hlf hit were possible

tbat the Count 'ad a child.' 'Well, father, I will see you In a few

moments, flow, little one, I am going to give you some nice supper, and show

you my own pretty room You may sleep with mc, little darling, and to-mor-

row morning, when we are rested, we'll

take a drive In the pony chaise. I'll let

you hold the reins, and, away we'll Su

down the cart-path In the woods, and gather wild flowers, and have lots of

fun!' Saying ibis, she kissed and led

out tbe child, who was only too glad to get away from the presence of gruff Mr.

Gynn, who, although rough *i a chest- nut burr In oiitwitrd seeming,,had, un-

derneath hhi prickly exterior, a genuine

and beneficent heart.

When Elsae had been well cared fur, suppered and.put to bed,Grace returned

to tell her lather and mother the recent

disclosures respecting the Count. Mr. Gynn was at Bret slow to doubt

the Count, but Grace's testimony began

to work, and after a time he was too full

of Indignation to speak) his anger came

at last to be at white heat. As for Mrs. Gynn, although an Ameri-

can woman, she always thought with Mr.

Gynn ; If he favored the Count, she was complacent, If he criticized, Bhe blamed.

'Disown bis children. Tbe uugratefttl

dog 1 Most tlnful and Infamous 1' at length

burst from Mr. Gynn'e stern lips. 'He appeared MI well,' Bald Mrs. Gynn,

'who would have thought him nuch a

brute?' Til have his antecedents Inquired In-

to!' said Mr. Oynn. 'The Impostor! To

palm himself off as genuine upon honest

people!' 'We've been sad]y Imposed iippn,' »e,ld

Mrs. qynp. ■It Is a happy thing tbat Uraoo was on

the alert, and found out about the old

scoundrel,' said Mr. Gynn, 'Yes, Indeed,' echoed the wife 'An

ounce of prevention |a better Hi an a ton

ol cure, In this oaso-' 'I wonder I did not suspeot lilm,' add-

ed the husband. 'He borrowed two thousand dollars when he waa he-e, un- til be conld get fund* from hi* banker In

Dresden.' 'Yes, father, you told me,' replied the

wife, 'and I've wondered Hist he should have the face lo ask you, ofall others.'

He's a base swindler, a shocking scamp,

bnt I'll put the law after him,'was the answer. 'Not content with skinning his

own children, he was trying the same

game with ua.'. 'Oh, father 1'. cried G,race. 'I am so re-

lieved t" 11 ml you understand him BO

well. I haye been In mortal terror lest I must fulfil my promise of marriage. He

may mie me for breach of promise, and

there will be the notoriety of the affair.

But I can bear all that.' 'I 'ope '.'will, hupon my word!' re

piled Mr. Gynn. 'If 'e does, Vll get his haffalrs haired, right soon, mark that.

And hi shall force 'Im to hown 'Is chil-

dren, and remove 'Isgraep from their for-

tunes, has well as tepay me bevcry far-

thing 'e howes me.1

■I hope you will, Indeed, father; and as soon as little Eloae gets wonted to the

house, and loves you and mother, I muat return and look up her sister. I do not

wish to meet the Count ever again!' and overcome with her sorrow, she burst in-

to tears.

'Well, well,,', said Mr. Gynn, 'don't

worry. ' All's well that ends well, and

we must think ourselves happy In discov- ering the rascal In season to escape b|s

plot. I would rather bury you, my

daughter, than h,ivp yon the wife of a

man so base as to disown his ohlldrenl

The tea-bell rang, and Mrs. Gynn led

fruit and brilliant foliage. Anna Stilling

was still slok at the O'Connor cottage. Wild with fever, she ptteously moaned

on tier bed of pain. Her kind friends

watched over her with ceaseless solici-

tude, and were almost as restless as the little sufferer.

Paul had called a skillful physician,

who came twice a day, and gave earnest

thought and prayer to the critical case. At times, Anna was delirious, and told

tales tbe Count would choose forever

sealed. father, father!' ahe cried, as tbe

doctor sat beside her bed, and lit*.

O'Connor and Lizzie stood near. 'Don't,

don't; I won't tell; I won't tell!' There, there, darllngt'sootblngly said

tbe doctor; 'he shall not hurt you. I'll

drive him away,' and he made as If he

turned out tbe phantom.

Sure and he's gone,' said Mrs. O'Con- nor. 'What troubles you, darling?'

'Won't you ever tell I* whispered Anna. Well, Count Stilling la my father, and

he's going to strangle me If I tell. He

calls me Mary Burt, but I'm Anua Still-

ing. Ob, oh, see he's coming again. I

won't tell, father, If only you'll let go

my throat.'

It's meaelf stood fornlnst tbat game

father on the Merrlmac bridge,' said Mr.

O'Connor. 'The child has a look like him, only better, and batln' the evil eye

be wears. I mado bould to speak to him

and charge him with tbe ownership of

tbe poor sick colleen at me house, but

the desateful crathur took oath the child

was no kin to him, and I complained to

the authorities and tbey have arresting

him under consideration.'

'Hush,' said tbe doctor, watching his

patient; 'We must keep her quiet,' and he

gave her a powder which soon soothed her to sleep.

Lizzie, leaving the mill, watched close- ly beside her little friend, and putting

aside her prankeoine ways, seeing It was

a matter of life and death, followed tbe

doctor's prescriptions to Ihe letter. Well was It for the child that she did BO, as

good Mrs. O'Connor, In her loving dis-

traction, was often making 'a nourishing

custard, or a wholesome doughnut, to

kape the hunger from devouring the i-liil.l.' These goodies Lizzie wisely ate

herself, or gave to her little brothers.

Paul proved an excellent watohvr. An-

na knew him even when delirious, and

felt safe In his care, and he could soothe

her fearB when she would not listen tc others.

As Mr O'Connor told him of his meet-

ing Count Stilling, and of that unnatural father's denial of his relationship to his

child, the Erin blood of each boiled with Indignation.

'He disowns tbe like of that!' cried Mr. O'Connor. 'It's vexed to the core, I ber.,

thinking of the tbafe. He was horn tp u

halter, Btire. It's, a, wqndher the arth doesn't open and swallow tin such a mon-

ster, entirely. In troth but the Judgment will overtake blin some of these days,

mark me word I' 'It's meselfbelaves It!'said Paul. 'The blessed child'.' Mr. O'Connor eos'

tinned. 'I'd like fifty such children

Happy Is tbe man, and rich too, the

proste, says, that baa his quiver full of

them. That people aball over-run and

possess the land that have au honest

number of chllders. The blessed chil- dren, the flowering of the arth, the bright

home jewels. It's mane and beggarly

Is the mnn or the woman, that begrudges them existence. Retther were It for

them to wear for an ornament to their necks the millstone that will drown tbem

In tbe depth of the say. Better was It

for them If they'd never been born, as

tbe pradte said on Sunday.'

'Only to think of Itt' chimed In Lizzie.

'I have no patience. I, could see that Count hung. I remember him too, and

his airs In the mill, when he was putting

his little girl toa toll and a burthen he

knew she had no strength to bear. Ho thought the poor, thing would die, and

he would get rid of her. May tbe good

angels preserve her! She's a darling,

every Inch of ber, and I'd rUk my life to

save her!'

'You shall never he the poorer for

serving the child,■ said Paul, tho tears [n his t)ue eypg. i shall settle for her

board, and all the expenses.

'Not a one will I take of yeal' buret from Mr. O'Connor. 'The colleen li sink

and In prlton, and the little matther of

taking care of her, I wish to do a- to the

dear I<ord himself. If He'll be plased to

accept It.' 'Wlshal' cried Paul, his plaiii face glo-

rified with the shining of noble emotions.

'Ycz must not have all the benevolence on your side, honest man, but give me a chance to get my aharo of tbe blessing, for It's mesllf lias an eye to the reward which be that gives a cup of cold water

In tbe name of a disciple arns. It's me-

sllf will Insist on paying the debts of the colleen, and If ye'll plaae tell me the

amount, I'll snnare them the minute'

'Ai-ruli, and \t that yrz wl3b?' retorted

Mr. 0,'Connor, 'Then I'll be quits wld

ycz, and only ask ye? half price, A3.BO

for two witls board. It's mesllf will be happy lo share the joy and the blessln'

wld st z, If It be plaslog to you.'

Paul gladly paid the money, and the

two were faster friends than ever.

XXXII- DORA'S LETTER.

MY DKAH GRACE: I was heart-sick

when, on reaching aunt Bylngton'i I fouud you had left. Aunt was out, and

to enliven my depression I treated my-

self to a walk. As I was crossing Merrt mao bridge I met the Count. I was

greatly surprised for I thought he was In

Washington In the Interests of his embas-

sy. Tbe servants dropped some sugges-

tive news about the man wh\ch grieved

and shocked, me,, on, yo,ur account, more

(han } can deicrlbe. 1 determined to

Improve the opportunity to test him, aud

accepted his earnest Invitation to take a ride. I ani ashamed of my old flirting

propensity, as you well know. It Is mean

and unworthy to trifle with the heart af-

fairs of another, bat I used my art to

probe the state of the Count's regard for you.

'You aee there was one little question I

wished to solve before I gave y on away

"for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer till death should divide" you and

if he was true as steel. If he paid me

lover-like attentions, t he could be won from

you by any silly, in

with money. I tried let me tell yoa If I were

the Count as If he ■ abhor him I I detest

'It is so fortunate thafypu have found out his devices, If IgDOftBt of them you

had surely been h*t helpless victim. Some wise person laytthAt "very much

of the pleasure of courtsUp comes from

constant attentions of the parties to each other." But the Cotuat Is Inconstant,

fickle and trustless, for If he treats me

with undue attention, he will some one else.

You must think yourself happy In find-

ing him out In time. How horrible It

would be to be caught by the pretences

of such a man! What a life of worse

than slave degradation to live with blm!

O, my darling Grace, I am so glad you

have escaped; I was so short-sighted

and presumptuous In advising you to ac- cept him; I begin to think that making

matches Is perilous. I have been read-

lug about corrupt marriages, lately, and

find statistics show that they are frequent, and with all our advancement, this Is

called an "era, or crime." It Is too

dreadful to admit. When will our land

become truly christianized?

'But you have escaped tbe great snare

spread for your feet, and wilt be all the

wiser, as I hope I am, from the lesson;

and, by and by, when you have wrought

out some of your plans of benevolence, and get fairly over the shock or this spu-

rious courtship, you will doubtless mar-

ry a Mr. Great Heart, as you deserve; although, for tbe matter of marrying, you

have ever seemed more Indifferent than

the mass of young ladles whom I meet. It Is not the study of your life to catch a

husband. Yon have resources of happi-

ness within yoarself.and will lead an ac-

tive, useful life; you do not idly wall for

the shadowy somebody you have never

seen, that you may entrust to him your

precious self, whether a true man or a

pretender. I have often heard you say that you would have this matter of your

own marriage "as God wills."

'Now that you are free again, I know

so well what your benevolent heart will

prompt you to do. You will take home those little girls of the false Count,—for I

learn there ate two,—and make them the

nucleus of your Orphan's Home, Did

you not suggest that you would do some

thing of the kind, and that your new res-

idence should be devoted lo shelter and nourish tho homeless little ones?

■Your work and mloewlll not bo so "'J ■e.ut*W,tf X'«vei trdtajti.,) t„ Uhn* for others, which Is thoTOroest purpose of my heart. I must spend a year at Bradford, and drink In some of Miss Hns-

sletlne's good Instruction. What a pity, all these years I have learned so little

that will b'j of use to me. Now I mean to redeem- the time,—make the most of

It. I am busy studying the languages; I

recite t,j Mr. Cameron whenever I can see him and he h«s th# leisure to hear

The late Isaac 0. Barnes once attended

the funeral of a particular friend and

crony. The service was conducted by two clergymen, friends of the family, who,

with their long .prayers and extended

remarks," consumed fully two hours,

during which Mr. Barnes suffered untold

agony of suspense aud Impatience. Hard-

ly bad the seoond minister pronounced

the " amen," when Barnes, In bis squeaky voice, turning to the person sitting near-

est him, said:

" Did you know Kid?"

" Yes air," raid the man addressed In

a low voice.

"Good fellow wasn't be?" continued Barnes.

" Tei sir;" still In a suppressed tone.

"And he was a mighty smart one, too," squeaked Barnes.

"Very smart," also whispered tbe

other, as the company present began to

look '" th<lt direction. " Yes he was," piped Barnes, still loud-

er, with one of his expletives, " and If

he'd had the running of this funeral, he'd

have been under the ground an hour and a half ago."

The Yule College world was somewhat

excited last week over the rumor that a

popular exmember of "7:t had suffered the amputation of an arm. The news was

afterwards confirmed, and further par-

walat, when the stern parent of the girl

appeared, and it was taken off.

A worthy Scotch couple, when asked

" When we began life together wo work-

to dine off a bit of roas,t meat, and some-

Tbe day was very fine Sundiy, and a large number ot people attended tbe varion* churches. At the

LAWRENCE STBZIT

church Rev. C. K. fisher preached a sermon {n the forenoon from Matt, xll.93; "Either m«ke the tree and bis fruit good, or else make tbe tree corrupt and his fruit corrupt, for the tree is known by hb fruit." Also Matt. 111. 10; "Therefore any tree which brlngeth not forth good fruit ia hewn down and cast into tbe fire." These passages, said lbs speaker, ua b us IO

judge men a nd things, customs and traffic by their fruit'. By this simple, common univer- sal rule wo wish to Judge the traffic in intoii- catlng drinks, particularly In beer. To sbow Its fruits tbe preacher presented testimony at length concerning the fraits of beer selling and drinking In Qrest Britain and America. This testimony from England was from both Houses of Parliament; from chaplains of pris- ons, jails, from clergyman, from magistrates, from judge* and from governors or work- houses; In Americt, from overseers, public Institution*, prlrons, and the Has*. Temperance Alliance. These testimonies, though lade- pendent, all go lo prove thai beer selling and beer drinking Increase Intemperance, vice, misery, poverty, and debawment—that their fruit* are all corrupt and only corrupt Hours tho tree Is corrupt. So says Englanl'e great brewer.

The subject of tbe discourse wss temperance, having spe- cial reference to the voting oa Tuesday next, on the question of permitting or problbrttng the sale of beer.

1 Corinthian",xv. 50, 57. "The sting of deaih Is sin, and the euength of aln Is the law. thanks be to God who gl vein as the victory through oar Lord Jetnt Christ." First the sting ol death le sin. The thoughts snggeittd were

that all tbe anguish and reproach ot death Is the result of sin; were It not for sin there would be no death, end we might be translated U Enoch and Elljih were. It la in conse- quence of sin that we are obliged to be con- signed to the foulness and decay o( the tomb, Tbo*s that die need not be afraid of death but of the aln committed In the world. II) In- stanced tbe wicked conqueror, the unfaithful minister, the drunker 1 and the libertine. 2J. Tbe strength of sin Is tbe law. Law Is piti- less and severe, and knows no mercy.

Revival, from two texts in lieu. 3: a, and P«. 83:6. " 0 Lord revive thy work In the midst of tba years; wilt thon not revive na again that thy people may rejoice In thee." It waa an

earnest discourse, appealing for a religious ex- perience which bos a practical outcome. He aald nations, sects and Individuals looked back upon ihe best things in their history, and prayed to hare them revived, ne applied his subject In IU contracted force to bis own church and people, t xborting tbem to a revival which sbonld make their church a practical power of righteousness, wblcb should put it Into the world free from every Incumbrance. Oh that we might all regard this prayer as aa appeal to as personally to renew our sul io be- half of oar religion, to devote ourselves and a'] we hare and do, more to Ibn interests of onr church, that we might see tbe work of the Lord prospering in ourh ands.

Then as a church we have interests aud work In tbe world. How the world suffers for lack or tbe wotk which the church, which Christian people might do In behalf ot honesty, vlrtne, charity and temperance. Last Sunday we had an opportunity to do a little for the woik ol charity in the world in tba money we gave the " Little Wanderers." That money was given for religion. " Pure religion before Ood the Father la thii, to visit the fatherless and the widow In their affliction, and to keep ourselves nnspot'ed from the world." The first part of that religion we practiced last Sunday in a small way. That was a little revival or the Lord's work thai did good. We sent a lit- tle blessing to tbe orphan. This week we are to have an opportunity to do a little to prac- tice tbe other part of tbat religion, thai Is to parity and keep men unspotted from the world. What leads to more impurity than any other one thing? And what makes more or- phans than any other one evil ? Clearly Intem- peianoe. This apol* men more with the lepro- sy of tbe world than anything alee. This mul- tiplies widows and orphans at a fearful ratio. This degrades and rains mankind as nothing else has ever roue. Wbat can we do against It? It la the Lord's work to overcome it. And our trie" are this week to have an opportunity to do something Iu this work, to revive tbo causa of temperance, to SOSf for aobrioty and uaspotteunesi from the world. Let every roan who believes In sobriety do his duty naxt Tuesday at tho polls. And though the women are nut jei raasssvaafts m W»a»,tssep may oa ac- .......

Faxa BAPTIST,

Tbe services at this place of worship were conducted by Rev. Mr. Ward, of Andover. Rev. J. A. Lowell, the lete pastor, being In'the audience, he was Invited to ibe desk, and as- sisted In the devotional exercises of the morn- ing. Mr. Ward selected hla text from Revela- 'i-ins xxll. 171 "And the spirit and tbe bride say come; and let him that heareth say come; and let him that la atbirst come; and whoso- ever will, let blm take tbe water of life freely."

The discourse was an earnest appeal to all claases of people to seek tbe fetor of tbe di- vine being. An Instance was cited ot a person, who, a number of years ago, began to search for tbe truth; he felt there muit be happiness be bad net yet experienced, end to lorn of this hspplnesa he commenced reading tbe scriptures from Ihe beginning. As be pro- gressed be round numerous promisee of blast- ings, but be could not apply tbem to bis onu ease; the sorrows of tbe wicked and sinful were ever before him In their gloomiest atpec, and for htm there seemed DO hope. But with wbat anxiety and brightened hopes did be come to tbe word* of Ihe text, In this last chap- ter of It relation*. Here be found an Invita- tion to all:—"Whosoever will, let blm take tbe water of life freely." This Invitation was so broad that be found It applicable to his own cue, and embracing the opportunity he fonnd Ibe bappines* he so long had sought- Here the speaker alluded lo the universal love that Cod extended to all claatea of people, the high, tbe low, the rich, the poor. His aun sbiae* alike upon tbo evil and the good, Ihe Just and tbe nnjnst; end so In spiritual affilra Ood is no respecter of persons- Tbe text was then made applicable to the audience, and an earnest appeal was male fo accept God'* generous promisee, and or.t. r Into bla glorious work for the salvation of ecu Is.

Rev. W. Wllley, wbo also administered the sacrament, and preelded over a missionary

concert la the evening. The text In tbe morn- ing was from Ps. xlix. 8. Every person will prove God'* word true In bis own penoosl ex- perience.

"Kedemption'of tool it preciout." A thing mar be precious on account of Its scarceness, or on aceoBDt or the great results It prodnces. 1st, Redemption through Christ le precious on account of what It h In itself. 2i, On ac- count of what it cost, Sd, Because ft is the only redemption that will ever be offered, th, On account of the great reenlt* it produces. 3tb, It glorifies Ood.

A time is o^nlag when the «onl cannot ba redeemed. Tbe day of redemption will pits; Christ will not always invite; want of religions feeling is datknest. These offers not accepted will prove a millstone to drag tbe aonl down; wa oan do nothing for onr own salvation; Infi- nite power provided the redemption. The

heart Is (orsver given up to *ln exc.-pi re- deemed by Ood. Bow enormous Is tbe gntli of neglecting each a redemption. Ia the even- ing Mr. W-iey gave an Interesting account of his connection with tbe Cherokee Indians, with whom he has labored aa a missionary for twenty-five year*. He woe obliged to give np his labors among the Indians on account of the transfer of the tnlsaion from the American Board to tho Presbyterian Board. He believed that the Indian difficult)- can only be settled by Christianity. To christianise Ihe Indian Is to make blm a good citizen, and he believes the government oan make twdntr Christians lor the same axpeass it takes to kill off one.

iTxiTAaiAX. A large audience was present, and listened

to a powerful and eloquent discourse from the second clause or the Tib verse of the 10th chapter of Psalm*. Tho subject waa tbe con- version of the son), aad a continuation of tbe theme of the previous Sabbath, selected from the first clause or the same verse. The speak- er's (Rev. Mr. Hayden) remarks were extem- poraneous, and In a marked degree earnest and eloquent, appealing to the faeatti and minds or hla people. We noticed among tbe audience the Rev. David A. Wason, or Boston, whose 111 health requires bis absence from the pulpit at present.

FIBBT BAPTIST.

The pastor, Rev. J. B. O. Pldgg, aetectod as but text, tbo 31 verse of tbe Otb chapter of Bx- odui—" And I appeared nnto Abraham, unto Isaac, and; unto Jacob by the name of Ood Al- mighty; but by my name Jehovah was I not known to them." To the Hebrews "name" bad alwaye a broader signification than with ui; It wai given a* an indication of character, and often changed to Illustrate a new relation In lire. To hit ancient people In Ihe patriarchal days, when his children met and talked with Ood, be was known only as tbe Almighty One. The words of the text were spoken oa tbe boundary of two ages, when Qod was about adding anew revelation or himself, aa Jehovah lbs Immutable, unchangeable and eternal one. There can be no gain lo u* so great as to trnly understand and know the name, the character, the lovo of Ood. Tho Bible 1* the world's re- ligious spelling book. Ood it revealing himself In higher and brighter degrees; one aide la presented In nature, another Iu revelation; one view io tbe patriarcho, another now. God Almighty, then Jtborah, bat beat or all through Jesus Christ, at " Oar Father; " every Chris- tian oaght to rrjjioe la this revelation; tbe humblest Christian can obtain better Informa- tion or God, than the mis-btlctt philosopher, for he can ace and hear him in hla brightest,

beat revelation as * Our Father."

Tbe pastor, Ecv. Dr. Barrows, preached In Ibe forenoon from the text, Matt. xlll. 45, 46; "Again the kingdom of heaven Is likened anto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls, who, when he bad found one pearl of great price, went and aold all that he bad and bought It." Tbe subject suggested was the mode and man- ner of obtaining Christianity. There WO* a large attendance. Tbe Sunday school mtets at this church 1B tbe afternoon; there Is usu-

The Savionr aald that be mast go away In order that tbe Com forter, tbe Spirit ol truth might come. The world may now be aald to be nnder the dispen- sation of Ibe Holy Spirit. Hit offlce la lo con- vince the world of sin, of rlgbteoumeie and

Wbat a change was wrought In the minds of the apostles through Bit agencr. Prejudices wire dismissed, errors were removed, and Ibe great truths taught in tbe wonderful scenea they bad witnessed, were now ao understood that they comprehended the glorloua plan of Salvation, and la the confidence of a certain feltb, they went forth u Ihe ambassadors or tbo Lord Jesus aad to proclaim salvation to tbe lost,

Ibe seme agenry Is now necessary and for a same purpose; the mind la to be opened to

Rev. J.F. Kyle, of Fall River, preached a sermon from the text, I Cor. II. 3; "For I de- termined not to know any thing among yon, save Jetnt Christ and blm crucified." Wbat tbe self-righteous Jew and worldy-wise Greek regarded aa foolishness, was the wisdom and power of God. Tbe preaching or the cross Is accomplishing what all tbo learning of Greece and Home had failed lo do. Some things lo which Christ and him crucified answered, were considered; 1st, "Christ and blm crucified an- swers to the purposes of God In tbe counsel of the Godbead. 'it, "Christ crucified" answers to the fliat gospel promise given to Adam and Eve after ibilr tall, a* io tbe sacrifice* which were i tiered by Adam and hit tons. 3d,

"Christ crucified" answers to the ceremonies ol tbe Levtilcal economy. The whole Mosaic i MI ii pointed to a crucified Savionr; arido from this fact Iho Lovitical economy would be mean- ingless, t'h, "Cbust crucified" answers to the predictloni of tba Old Testament prophets re- specting the Messiah, oiti, "Christ crucified" answer* lo tbe demands of a violated law; death waa tbe penalty threatened In the event of th? law being ttalated. Oth, "Cbritl ciuel- fied" answers to tbe deina,d«ol a guilty coa- acienco. Bin has produced guilt, or a sense of deaerved punishment. Tho bio d of Christ cleansas from guilt. "Fir if the blood or bulls and of goats, and Ibe asbas of an heifer *nrink1ioff the unclean, eanctifyeih to the pnrl- fving of the ftesb, hew much more ' ball the blued ot Christ, which through tbe eternal spirit off-red himself without spot to God, pnrge yonr consciences from deedwtrhs, to serve Ibe living God."

Su-ject: The iwewSHe* of ibe atlei no o' Christ; two kind.. l*t, Im.rior or. faamun reasons. 2d, Superior or divine reason*

Inferior. 1. The morel plain upon wblcb Cbritl ttood waa ao different from that of bit accusers tbat tt would have been nseless to an- swer them. Difference of language la not tbe only bar io intercourse Men may speak the same tongne end yet not be able to communi- cate with one another. A lack of sympathy, a difference of thought, a greater or leas range or Intensity of perception cut men off as effectually from each other aa If tbey were of different speech. 2. It was tbe aim of these accusers to entangle Christ In talk, thinking be would criminate himself; Christ wiih-held the oppor- tunity. I. Ola silence may have been dee In part to the pre-determlned character of hit trial.

Superior reaioni. It vu a part of Christ's plan to auffer silently, t. Because he tbue mom fully carried out tbe idea of » sacrifice, and to preserved Ita/orm, Any resistance or body would have lessened Its completeness; any use of the occasion for uttering precept* woald have been a perve: tion from Its Intent. Any protest or defense would have subtracted so much from tbe character of the sacrifice. 2. Some moral results follow from the tllenco of Christ during his passion tbat add to Its power- Christ not defending himself makes an appeal to tbe world to pass that judgment upon blm which he conld not pass aptu himself. He throws the solution or bis death upon every man's conscience, 3. Christ let evil do Ua worst upon him without resistance or com- plaint; It was his way or giving the victory over the evil. Sin desires nothing so macb as an antagonist like itself. I. The silence or Christ In bis passion greatly enhances tbe con- trast with tbe glory and power or his resurrec-

tion. The Catholic Oburohea.

Prayer, he aald, was tlie stay and consolation ol the Christian; Christ had asked us to appeal to him as the fountain or grace, and had prom- ised to regard tbe prayers ot all, and supply alt wants, alleviate all miseries and cure all Infirm Itles. He showed at aomo length our relation to Ood, and said tbe necessities of our condi- tion, and the facility with which tho duty can be discharged, compels the obligation apon us to pray. Tbe speaker strongly urged upon bis bearer* tbe necessity of constant prayer oa a weapon against temptation.

LAKCBNY OF SHERIFF'S GOODS-

Breach of trust by a well-known Hher- Itra',Keepar.H-Conipllcltyortwowell known traders upon annex street.— Ooods from the) stores of Oeo. Oor- wala, Mrs. Barnleoat and otliers.-Tbe affair unaartbed by Marabal Pbll- brlok.

A nutter of excitement wae caused

among tbo dealers upon Essex street,

during Monday evening, by the an-

nouncement that Alden Josselyn, Geo.

Gorwaiz and David U, Ilarrimao had

been arrosted upon a charge of embez-

zloment of goods from tho store of Gor-

waiz, which, for the past six weoks had

been in the bands of Sheriff Briggs, in

the interest of Gorwaiz's creditors.

aS KEEl'KR,

Mr. Alden Josselyn had been placed in

charge or the store,—a position he has

been accustomed to hold, in such cases,

for many years, having the fullest con-

fidence of tho sheriff and interested par-

ties up to the present time. Mr. Josse-

lyn is know to nearly alt of our citizens,

and for many years had been supposed

to walk in tbe paths of rectitude. His

earlier lite had been somewhat dissipated,

his besetting sin being a love of strong

drink. Some ten or twelve years ago

he became a strict teetotaler, and has

since enjoyed an excellent reputation

for sobriety and industrious habits, and

has won tho confidence of our officials

to such a degree that he has boen gen-

erally appointed to the care of stores in

custody of the sheriff. Uut It is more

than suspected that of late his associates

have not been just such as conduces to

integrity and virtue, and from evil com-

panionship more than from dishonesty,

his present trouble has arisen.

AS ACCOMl'l.lCKS,

Evidence is abundant that Messrs. Heo.

Gorwaiz and David G. Harrinmti arc

guilty of larceny of goods from tho store.

Mr. Gorwaiz, for tho past few years has

carried on the business of fancy goods,

toys, notions, etc., and has been accredit-

ed with a fair reputation for honesty,

and a good character, and has won many

friends since his advent to the city. His

companion in this transaction, David G.

Hurrlman, is the proprietor of an eating

saloon on Essex street, near the corner

of Araeshury, where bo has beon in busi-

ness but a short time, previous to which

we know littlo of tbe gentleman. Wo

learn that bis connection with the pres-

ent, affair, nroso from being selected to

appraise the goods remaining in Gor-

waiz's plitco oT business.

BUSI'ICION ANI1 ARRIST.

That something was wrong was ovi-

dent from tho (act that Col. 1'hilbrick

received information of various presents

being given to women of not too good

character, by Mr. Josselyn, and upon

tho Marshal repairing to tho store In his

care, he discovered that the stock had

been somewhat reduced Blnce his last > un, iiim miurmou tuu snenn oi me lact.

Warrants for searching tho premises of

tho threo persons having access to the

storo resulted in the finding or a large

quantity of goods at each place, consist-

ing of vases, toys, furnishing goods,

bags, baskets, etc. Tbo parties were at

once arrosted and lodged in the Station

House. Tho following morning reading

of the complaint was waived, and each

of Iho parties were bound over to the

Superior Court in tbe sum ol two thou-

sand dollars, which I hey severally ob-

tained.

GOODS I IHiM of UK II STOKED

Were found in the possession of Mr. Josse-

lyn, who has had access to very many

places within tho past year, but none as

yet have been recognized save a lot of

dry and dress goods from tbe store late-

ly occupied by tho notorious Mrs. Bar-

nieoat. «■>*>>♦

Tbeft of goods rram tbe store or Ed- ward McKay--An Inirenlourt but abortive attempt to get out of a bad scrape.

There ws* a rate in court Wednetday, which from the peculiar circumstance* attending It, demand* tnoro iban the pasting notice It re- ceives in our report of Ihe I'oltce Court pro- ceeding*. Mr. I!dward McKsy.wbo keep* a dry anil fancy good* store on the tbe south side ol Essex street, appeared In court and charged a young man, named Michael Buckley, wlib stealing, from tbe doorway of his store, on Tuotday, a piece ol etllM food* maas- urlng forty-eight yards, and valued at some- thing* like six or seven dollars.

HOW mi-. I.ARCBNT WAS I'.i'lilhnii. Mr. McKay drove over to Andovor, Tuesday

evening, leaving In charge of bis store, Mr. Maraner Chase and a young lady clerk. About eight o'clock, Mr. Chase, who was standing behind the counter, observed the piece of cali- co relerrod to, slowly sliding from the pile of good* placod at the door Tor display. He started out, and on reaching the door saw a man huriiodly walking oir with ihe goods un- der hi* arm. Mr. Chase gave chate and tbe man, hearing the footsteps or tho clerk, turned around, giving Mr. Chase an opportunity to observe his face, Seeing that be was pursued, his best policy was to drop the Roods, and he did to, turning around again lo tee If Mr. Cbaie would follow him further, tboreby giving Mr. Cbete another opportunity to mark his counte- nance. Mr. Cbaie picked up lbs piece of goods and returned to the store, placing li up- on the counter, llu returned lo the door and observed a man looking In at the wiodow, end a* tbe people on ibe street were all looking In the direction which the thief bad taken, and this gentleman gazttl unconcernedly Into the siorc, Mr. Chase came to the conclusion that he was an accomplice, and lhat bo was pursu- ing this line ol conduct to escape observation. lie, therefore, kepi hit eye upon him, and Mr. McKty coming at that moment, he Informed him ol ibe circumstances connected with ihe attempted larceny, and stating that he could Identify tho person.

THE AU1IK8T. Mr. McKay, accompanied by Mr. Cbaie,

then went in tearch of an officer, and on tbelr way met Ihe two, the one who had taken tbe goods and the other who bad bean observed Ltailnr; calmly In at the window during tbe ex- citement. Having pointed out the man who stole the goods, and there being no officer near, Mr- McKsy collared hlmand look bin-, to hit store; he went very r-ulttly until be reached the door. On arriving there he made some resilience, and asked what bo was arrested for. Ho was answered lhat he had not been arrest- ed, hut was simply detained until the arrival of an otHcer. He remarked that there wasn't an officer In Lawrence that could arrest him. Ofuoer Carroll came In a lew moment* after wards and proved to the contrary l.y taking him into custody.

Then, as if feeling the bopeaessneu of inch a course, aaked lo have tbe defendant sworn. This wu done, and Buckley took the stand. He swore he did not steal the goods.

1 sieit OH AND AltMY RBOHPTION.

Pont Pbll aiioridan, of Salem, enter- talced by Pont Needbam, of Law- rence - - Lighting the laat camp fire of tbe eeaaon - - Wide awake.

Tbo fact that Poet Pbll Sheridan, of Salem, wu announced to visit the Post In this city, wu sufficient to bring ont a large attendance of comradoi, for It Is known throughout this section or tbe State, at lestt, ibst tbe Salem branch Of tliit grand organisation 1* one or tbe largest and liveliest Post* In the Department. About hall pa*t teven o'clock, on Wednesday evening, Needbam Post, numbering about one hundred men, and accompanied by the Father Matthew Drum Corps, who had kindly volun- teered tbelr services, marched through Essex ■treet to the northern depot, and there formed the line* for tbe reception or Ihe visiting com- rades, who were soon rolled In by a special train. Over one hundred and fifty member! alighted from the can, accompanied by tbe Salem Bran Band. After the uiual courtesies, tbe lines proceeded to tbe headquarter* of Needbam Post, the visiting band discoursing excellent mutlc, alternated wltb tbat ol tbe Drum corps- Upon the arrival at tbe hall, lltjof Frank Davis, the Commandant or Post Needbam, welcomed tbe Salem comrades In a few welt chosen remarks, wblcb were appro- priately reciprocated by tbe Phil Sheridan Com- mandant, and previous to rtlsmletal or tbe ranks, all Joined in singing tbe familiar old battle song, "Rally round the Flag," which was accompanied by tbe band and drum corps. Tbe union or three hundred male voices, that "knew Just how those army hymns went," ac- companied by a lull band and drum corps, made tbe building fairly quake, and could have been beard over nearly the entire city. Tbli little "opening" was under the director- ship of Capt. (Bob) Dalton, whom It is under- stood Is toald Gilmore In the coming Jubilee.

It required but a few moments for everybody to become well acquainted, and the evening wu enjoyably puied In social Intercourse, the telling or army stories, renewing acquaintances, etc. An Impromptu programme wu soon ar- ranged, and began by some excellent selection* by tbe Salem Brass Band, under tbe leader- ship of Mr. Janie* Faxon, which was followed by mnsic from the drum corps. The Salem boys had brought two excellent dancers, Messrs. Copelsnd and French, who in spangles and clogs, were soon tapping sn accompani- ment to a violin which happened to be present, They bad bnt stepped from tbe platrorm when youog Bhean wu there with AM wooden shoe*. A bone duet was then given by Sboan and Burns. Someone present had espied old Major White, or Haverhlll, who, for more than Ofly years, bat served in the SUte Militia In the capacity of drnramer, and, upon further search, Mr. Frank Kent, an apt pupil ol Ihe Major, wa* round, and tbe two were Induced iu fun over a tew or the old arms- — ru. • accompaniment upou several Dies. The effect wu electrical, and went right to tbe hearts or the comrades.

The commander now announced a little array luncb, which was partaken ot with a keen relish, and then the exercises were re- newed by an interesting incident given by Mr. J. Fred Clark, in which a moral wu shown, to the effect that it is best not to be " Just one minute too late!" Comrade Webber of the Salem Post gave a thrilling recitation of " Sbamns O'Brien," winning frequent ap- plause during its presentation. Capt. Dalton or tbe Salem Cadet* WM next called for, and his jolly race wu soon seen upon the platform. Tho Captain made a leellng. eloquent and pat- riotic speech, and whi -b may be called tbu speech or the evening. Comrade Noonan now favored tbe patty with a song entitled " The old Bog Hole," after which Col. Sherman, In a few pointed remarks, expressed bis gratifica- tion at the present gathering, and alluded to tbe grand object ol Ihe order. The bour get- ting late all present joined In singing America, accompanied by tbe band, and the visiting brethren were escorted to tbe railway station, where the car* were In readiness to carry them to Salem. Kveryone wu delighted with tbe evening's enteitalnment, and a general desire wu expressed to return tho visit or Post Phil. Sheridan at an early day.

May Festival at tbe First Baptist.

A most happy and unique entertainment wu provided for the children connected with the Sabbath school of the First Baptist Society, and we more than half surmise tbst the older people present were large sharers in the festivi- ties of the occasion. A profuse supply of beautiful Msy Dower* added not a little to the attractlvene** of the occasion. Indeed from the Tragranco diffused through the spacious room, one could almost imagine himself In the midst of tbe woodland homes or Ibe sweet flowers, upon a bright May morning.

A choice programme of recitations, and vo- cal and Instrumental muMc wu presented, af- fording tfeait of enjoyment to all present. Tbe assembly wu welcomed In a salutatory by Master Carl Bootbman, arter wblcb an anni- versary hymn was sung by tho children. A beautiful piece wu enaced by a number or young ladies, which represented tbe conetruc- tion of a pyramid, composed of six blocks, and u each one wai placed in Us proper position, an appropriate motto wu revealed, the whole being surmouuted by a beautiful vue of Bowers. The foundation bore the In scrlptlon"K>ckor Aget," the remaining block* representing Peace, Faith, Life, Salvation and Heaven. This wu followed by a pleasing duett, rendored by Muter Ambrose and His* Pratt; the delight of ibe listener* Induced tbe young couple to a repetition of ibe piece. A recitation wai given by Mi** Ella Smith, alter wblch tbe choir of tho church sang the " Sung of Spring." Six little children recited tbelr six little wishes, and turn Meurs. Truell and Scott performed a duett upon the flute and piano. Mis* Gertie Lawrence gave a recita- tion, followed by a " May Morning " cborn* by Ibe rholr. An Intermltslon wu here im- proved by young ladles granting tbe audience ibe prlvilego >>l purcbiting beautiful boqnet* of May flowers, which had been prepared In abundance. Tbe second portion of tbe enter- tainment was commenced by a pleasing char- acter piece, performed by three mlise*. eacb dressed In one of tbe National colors, sur- rounded by twelve misses dressed In white, and esch bearing a small flsg, while In tbe cen- tre of the grcup wa* impended a largo silken banner. After a recitation by the first men- tioned misses, a chorus wu sung by tbe enure group. The piece wu very effective, and finely rendered. A duett wu next performed by Mrs. Klnney and Ml*s Richards, followed by a recitation from Muter Barton, A song en- titled " Come, Little Birdie," wu snng by Ml** Norcross, and then a Monument of Truth, wu erected by a number of young gent*, which wa* followed by a long, " Awake, the flowers untold." A miislonary dialogue wu presented by eight young ladles, alter which " Tbat Hun- dred Dollar Bonnet" wu commented upon by Mis* Lena Feax. Tbe programme wu com- pleted i.y a chorm rendered by the choir wltb fine effect.

THB BOSTORT COLONY IN M1NNB SOT A.

Letter from one of tbe Oolonlste, of this city.—Cobb, Harris, Burn ham and Klmball pronounce tbe Agon to of tbe Colony a fraud.—Tbe otber aide of tbe question.—Contradlctorystatemente.

It will be remembered that a few weeks since Col. Johnston came to this c.ty to seek additions to his proposed Colony or Soldiers to take rarm* In Minnesota, under tbo Home-

1 Act It IIIHII tbat a large number or returned soldiers accepted the Colonel'* propo- sition* and with bim started for the west, under the name of " Boston Colony." A few days ■Ince we noticed briefly a letter in tbe .S(. Paul rreas, signed by Cobb, Harris, Burnbam, and Klmball, of the Colonists, denouncing tbe Whole affair u unsatisfactory. Wa have since received a letter from one of the parties, writ- ten for our column*, which '.we publitb, for the Interest of the many friend* and acquaintances of the panic* who left this city In the Colony. Injustice to the projector* or tbe enterprise, however, we deem It but fair to append lome comment* from various lengthy articles, both editorial and communicated, which have ap- peared in the St. Paul papers, since this matter has been made public.

ST. PAUL, MINN , Msy 3d, 1SI3. ttoiTOU LA'vaxacx A at KBICAJI,—Perhaps It

Efllgbt he or latttM to som* of your readers to learn something of this part or tho country; since so many are contemplating emigration It may be or

to I hem to kaow tbe experience of four pil- grims thsl started last month, and nave seen some of the country.

After a tedious journey of over a week we reached theUudofthe Boston Colony, so called, at De- troit Lake, Becker Co., and lo use very mild terms, we were very much disappointed; w*there learned Ibe meanlog of the old bard who tails ns bow fancy "Displayed every rose but secretes Its thorn," only II was not fancy lhat did It In this ease; but let tbat pass. All tbe truth Is w* did not find there what we were looking for, viz:—good soil, good climate, and good society—so of eourte tamed back to try other plaes*.

Detroit Lake la located on the Northern Paciflo Railroad, about one hundred and eighty mile* west ofDnlulh, and aaout fifty from the Red River or the north, and about thirty east of the location or tbe Red River Colony; the climate does not differ materially at any point along there for s hundred mils*, and som* Idea or it may be gathered from Ibe Tut tbat a gentleman of undoubted veracity tells ns thai on the twentieth day of last July he rod«,-ln company wlthMsJ. Tenner or ihe Red River Ooloay—until 10 o'clock A. M., wrapped In buffalo rob** to keep warm; rather dubious pro*. peet for a com crop,—and jest here let ut atat* a few facts about Isothermal lines that we see on all

these map*, and by which* great many allmalea are Mt forth ID false colors. True thee* line* are taken from undoubted evldeno* aad are the avtragt climate; bnt will this theory aland the proof of practice ? If, u we are told, Fort (Jerry and the British line has Ihe same average u Haw York and Ohio, should we not aspect to* earns crops from lhat region, but do we find them? By no means; of what use then Is lb* similarity of ell. mate; bat the ellmatte are not similar; tbat la tho point; Iheas average* are taken In Ibis way: They mark In etch twenty-four hours the extremes or heat and eold; add them togslher and divide them by two, and that give* them tbe average climate u they call II, but Ilka the mu's at sixty-five that wanted to marry the young lady or twenty-live he- eatue their ages would average about right; tbl* Is raise doctrine.

But to return to my subject; let's see we left tbe pilgrims Jusl turning back from Detroit Lake. Well.we came back to lit. Paul, and nothing daunt- ed by our misfortunes resolved to try the south- weatsrn part of the state; accordingly we visited lb* National Colony at Worthlngton, one hundred and Mveaty-algbt mile* from here on th*8l. Panl and Hloux City Road, and here ws found what we were looking for, and have eaeh accepted tbe gift of a little hundred and sixty acre farm. We have been frequently asked tbe question, how large a piece of land does one hundred and elity seres make, and w* know of BO better way to siplaln than by aUlfog, .1 ml four times u large a* the Law- r*nee Trolling Park Inside tbe track, or In oiher words two mile* around It, a very nice little walk for a man to take before brsakfssl.

Tbe National Colony wu formed lut October by Dr. Miller of tbe Toledo Blade, and Prof. R. F. Husdston of Cleveland, Ohio, and lbs high reputa- tion or both these gent lemen i* a sufficient guaran- tee of good management. Founded on temperance principles, the sale of Intoxicating llqsors it ttrlctly prohfbltsd; (this Is ths only obligation wo reqnlro or Colonist*;} w* have already assured ud settled about eight hundred, while our a thousand have Juiced ihe Colony, and will local* som* time this tpriog; did spau penult I might go on at length to deterib* the beauties of the noun try, soil and socie- ty, but we will not weary yen this time.

There are a great many Lawrence people In and around Si. Paul; Mr. J. A. Btoveneon, who w* all remember so wsll u the active aad obliging dry

UT. II. O. Prinoe la at Hill water; we met him the other day, and were pleased lo learn that b* enjoy* life's richest blessing, good hxslth. We also met Mr. T. 8. Btratton, on* of Lawrence's Urst ssttlsr*; he Is tbe landlord of the Bay Vlsw Houas, Dulutb, ud everybody from there says he knows how to koep a hotel.

We have not been quite long enough In the country to believe lhat ouraelve*, however; we shall not until we aee It, and when we do will re- port- " BIOIJLOW,"

We clip tbe following exirsct from a letter In tbe St. Paul Press, dated April lfltb, written by the Methodist missionary in tbat vicinity. Alter alluding to tbe disappointment of theee gontlemen, be tayt:—

"Had Ihe** eolonlste persevered six milts far- ther In their pilgrimage, they would have rescind not fleetly the delectable mountalne, bnt prairies, groves, lakes and meadows of substantial reality. An unusually severe winter ha* spread all over the valley of ibe Red River—a deep covering of snow- *nd no peraon can safely .judge of Ibis country, Its climate, soil or capabilities. Altsr a year's resi- dence In Bechrr county u a mlttlonary of tbe 21. K. Church, and where I upset to remain, I would advise all exploren not to bs dUcouraged by these disappointed gentlemen from visiting tbe whole country along tbe llns of the Northern Pacific rail- road, especially this rvjeetsd Becker county. The writer la no land Jobber nor railroad agent, and only writes this for these seeking good and cheap homes." Ray. J. (. i-iu.i i.

In another letter to tbe same paper, dated April IStb, and signed by "A Satisfied Colon- ist," arter denying tbe charges of the four dis- satisfied persona, tbe projector of the enter- prise, Col. Johnston, is thus defended :—

" It I* no ditpar*ff**n*nt to the otber gentlemen connected with and Interested In the New England Bnrtan of Migration to say thai Col. Johnston, ihe President, I. satltled to great credit for all he bu done, lo promote the comfort, forward the Interest, and tecure lo every ssau lb* greatest benefit to be derived by associating together men who were ■trangera to eseh other, and harmonising alt la .urn common Interest Into the organisation over wblcb he presides,"

An Interesting letter to ths same paper ap- pears irons, tbe pen of Col. Johnston. Irom wblcb we clip tbe following:—

" We arrived at Detroit Lak* April Bth, bnt alas for th* consistency of Cobb fc Go,, laalead of doing u olber* did who meant business, going to work to select thalrclaims,courage fallad thaa.aad they never vsnlured more than three miles from tbe hotel, their time being employed a* usual, In sow- log discord among tbelr comrades, trying to Induce ihsm to sign a paper agreeing to go to another part of ths state.

Now, Mr. Bdllor, our leeation at Detroit Laks la all we claim for It, but we admit It Is no placa for men of lb* paper collar stripe.

The dramatic entertainment at tbe City Hall. Wednesday nlgbt, by ihe Bid well 4 Wilkinson Dramatic Company, drew a very large audi- ence, Iho floor being entirely filled and quite a number or persons In the gallery. Tbe play presented wu "A Leap in the dark," rounded on a sensational story oy Mrs. Mary Agne* Fleming. The piece la 111 dramatized, and must have been done by unskilful bands; it drags along very heavily, and there are too many side shows Introduced, breaking; ibe con- nection and materially Interfering wltb the de- velopment of the plot. The acting wu good with some exceptions. Mies Llllle Wilkinson hu been cast for the character thatsnlu her better than any other In the play. Miss Dollle Bid well bas not been so fortunate; tbe charac- ter of a youog romping girl, however well she may render It, is not snfted to ber personal ap- pearance, and somecf ihe finest scene* in tbe drama—pathetic ecencs—are more calculated to ttart a smile than a tear. This is said with- out disparagement to the abilities or the lady, which are too generally admitted to be ques- tioned. Mr. Wilkinson, as usual, produced a very pleating Impression. Messrs. Athlon and Jordan are excellent actors, also Mr. Davis. The audience were loud and frequent In their applause during the progress of the piece. Tbe company will slways be sure of a warm wel- come here- Mr. Janverin, the agent of tbe company. Is very popular, and produce* pleasing Impression where be goes.

Tho finest suite of rooms in this city

are thoso about to bo occupied by tho

Masonic order. They comprise tbe en-

tire upper section of S&undera Block,

with tbo exception of Saunders Hull.

There are thirteen rooms and a large

number of closets, some of theBe an

large as ordinary rooms. The main

Masonic lodge room la on the west aide,

and adjoins Saunders Hull; this room

will be elegantly fitted tip; a rich carpet

now covers the floor, and the organ

owned by the order Is placed In this

room. On the oast sido, at the front

and rear of the hall, aro ante-rsoms,

supplied with every modern conven-

ience; these are also handsomely car-

peted. On the extreme east,facing Apple,

ton street, are a smaller lodge room, and the armnrv of the Knights Tompi,u. This lodge room, like tbe main one, is

richly carpeted, and will be elegantly

furnished. The armory of the Knights

Templar, however, is the chief point of

attraction to the lucky visitor who Is

allowed to mako the tour of these rooms.

A black walnut wardrobe occupies both

sides and the rear end of the room ; this

wardrobe is an elegant specimen of

wood work; to describe it and convey

any idea of its appearance, is simply

Impossible; it Is divided into compart-

ments, each compartment designed ns :t

repository for the regalia ot a Knight.

The doors of the compartments are of

glass with black walnut sashes; each

compartment Is numbered with bluck

Arabic numerals OD polished brass

plates, about an inch in length, and half

an Incli in width, and which project al-

most half an inch from the walnut,

slightly tapering towards the outer sur-

face. In tho centre of the wardrobe on

tho east sido is a compartment designed

as a repository for the colors of the or-

der. The carving here la aa perfect in

execution as it Is elegant in design.

Pendant from tho ceiling is & bronzi

chundelier with a female figure In the

centre. Passing from this room, wo

aBcend to the banrjuet ball, which Is yet

in nn unfinished condition. It is large,

airy and commodious, and extends Ihe

entire depth of the building with win-

dows on Appleton, Essex and Methuen

streets; flanking the banquet hall are

the cooking and clothing rooms, the

former fitted up with all tho modern ap-

pliances for the successful cultivation of

the culinary art. Tho carpets for the

various rooms, which nre rich In quality

and chaste in design, were supplied by

Sharpe & Co., and were laid under the

personal supervision of Mr. Sharpe.

Owing to the peculiar architecture of

Borne of tbe rooms, this process was not

unattended with some difficulty, but this was successfully overcome and the

work accomplished to perfection.

CALISTHEN1C BXBBOISBS.

An Afternoon at tbe High School.

Tbe tysti m of modern education alma at [hyst- eal as well at mantal and moral cullers, and there la little doubt but that a cartful regard to lbs fur- mer goes far In promoting- Ihe Istter. Whatever strengthen* tbs physical ayatem has ths same Bleat upon the menial. A hsalthy body is suldom associ- ated with an un heal L by mind, and this fact was doubtless held In view wben It WU decided to in- corporate physical training with the edueationof tbe young. In many or the schools in Canada a system nf calisthenics baa been taught for a long lime, and the result* have bun very marked, es- pecially on female*. In a superior physical and mental growth. In England the ay stem has long been In practice, and It la now rapidly bslsg Intro- duced mio tbs schools In Hoot land. Il Is soroe- whst strange that In lbs latter country, whlob hu always been oouepleaous for ths attaaUon given tc manly aporU, that this aystsm wu not earlier, o at least mors generally Introduced. The following •Streets from * letter published In a recent volume, shows tfast the Introduction of lha syalem bsd been snggeated a long time ago. Tbe letter la from an old country schoolmaster to a young friend I '* My frlead Blalr la very much taken op with the aehool, and wants me to Introduce some Improvements In- to what ha calls " my mstbodof tuition;" he any* that the body needs exerclaeu well u the brain, and urges me strongly to Introduce " gymnaalies" Into my course of Instruction. At first I thought themsawu clean daft; wnylnevar In my lira beard o'tnch a thing. Whit, team my soholars tho tricks or Mountebanks I " Ulster Blalr," said I, " il would pain me esoceulngly if 1 thought that a want or rsapeot tor a man of my years prompted yon to Indulge In such pleasantries I" " Want o' respect frlen' Oordon, tbe Lord turbid I why msn the thing's geltln' lo be eommon In Knglsnd; tbsre'i hardly a school between the Tweed and the Thames, lhat hun't Ita gymnealuas, at least a aohool o'any consequence, snd I think ysu consider your scbeol o' sums consequent*." " Ooaseqnsnce here or sequence there sir. Dlair," said I, " It'll he a Iang lang day, before I learn anybody's halm with aach tricks aa you talk of."

" And I hope you'll change ynnr mind before lang, Domtnle, and when M do, Just Ut ms hear o"l, and I'll gls you what light I can on ihe sub- ject." "Never, never, I'm Arm on last Ja"r. Itlalr," said I, " If ihur.''« anylbl ng new yen have to com- municate In Geometry, Geography, or even a aim- I'll fl "1 method of communicating a knowledge of the rulu of Grammar,—though after all Llndlsy Murray's hardly to be surpassed,—I'll talk wltb you un the sahjeol, without losing my temper, but tms flying In tb* fsee of Providence by teaching the bairns, whom God bu placed me her* lo gulje aright, the jumping trtcke of showman and llount- ebsnks, Is enough to make a man for gal the rolea or boepltallly."

tl la possible that if tbe old schoolmaster Is It*. log to-day he bu changsd his mind. Being Invited to the High School In IhU city on Monday after- noon, to witness the ezerslaee of the pupils ol Dr Clsggett, we careful ly observed Iho ayatem Be prac- tised by him, and have tittle donbt but lhat It Is well calculated to produce Ihe rosalta hoped for. Dr. Claggett's system it umawhst different from others we have observed; It la a lighter system- thai Is II does not neceullate etrong physical ese tion; tt has the great merit if Imparting grace I carriage and elegance to manners. Its sffoets are already being observed In the pupils. To thoss who have not learned to dance It will be of much value when Ibey begin lo learn, and it will give gracefulness and ease to those who aro acqaainted wlih the terpslohorean art. The eierclaes on Mon- daj luted sboni two hours. Tbe lighter ess raises consist mainly In walking around the haU,k*sptag lime with the muelo or tbe piano. In these . clara the bead Is kept erect, shoulders thrown back, the bands resting on tb* hips, and the fool firmly brought to the floor, The poplla went through these very gracefully, and it was observa- ble lhat with Tew exceptions lbs almost attention was given lo the instruction of lbs teacher. Tbs dumb bell exercise wu psrbapslha most to bead- mired as II Is full of graceful positions, and the pu- pile appeared to antor Into Iho spirit of II, keeping sxeetlant time to the mnalo, and going throngb 11, uayoutog lady observed," Ilk* one man." The eierclaes with tbe rods and rings, which necessi- tate a "were it rain upon th* physical system were also well performed, very few ol th* pnpll* tvlno- fog fatigue. The system seems to be admirably adapted to the cultivation of physical health, and to the development sf the mnseular system while, ss we have already observed. It cannot fall ts pro- due* other not Inilgnlneant advantages In Impart- ing grace and elegance to Ihe deportment. We un deretand the Superintendent of ichools and tbe various teaahers are Tavorably Impreeaod with Ibe advantages of Ihe ayatem, and Ita Introduction as branch of education.

LADIES,

To THE POINT.—Four years ago I commenced business, adopting the one price system. "Knowing ones" shook their heads. "Ah, he can never make it pay ; ** and they hare waited for my "going up," that they might have tho satisfaction of saying " 1 told you so." Let them wait. Thanks to a discerning public, I am on my feet, and better prepared to do business than ever. I have no occasion for "closing out" or ' clear- ing till'" sales, as I icll at low prices all the year round; absolutely, pos- itively, and unmistakably, one price.

Ladies, send your children or hus- bands if you cannot come yourselves; we serve them all alike, the little four year old, who can barely lisp " Mother wants a Spool of Cotton," or the great greeu fellow of a hus- band who don't know the diiTr.rencs between a "pearl" or a *'pot" but- ton, buy just as cheap as the moat inveterate shopper. Remnants « specialty. Call and see me. T. LETI.AND, 381 Essex St., Lawrence. Dry and Fancy- Goods.

DENTIST,

Office, 417 Essex St., Lawrence.

Twenty yeats ago professional duty took me Into Germany lor the first time. I cannot forget my first Impressions nt the sight of whole nations growing up in full enjoyment of syetematlc, organized. I (iilglit almost Miv in tifi'i, i tiiifiitiiiii. I had iili'eitily become uctiimliited with eurue theories and forms of education;! hud read Plato** description ot the aatrfaM training for a nation: i was familiar w lih education to England, in Scotland mid In France; I was familiar with elementary school teaching, bad enjoyed the privil- eges of university education, and the itlll higher education of the workshop. I had myself taken an sctlve part In schools of art and mechanical Institutions, but I confess to have been profoundly aston- ished, I may say humiliated, at the sight of nations whose rulers had chosen to un- dertake the systematic education of their people, and of people who bad chosen to bear the burdens and make tbe sacrifices necessary to obtain It.

I do not know to what men or class of men in Germany the forethought, organ Izutlon and patriotism are to be attribut- ed wblcb made them lay aside personal ambition, political animosity, religious sectarianism and State parsimony, In or- der to unite all classes of the people In a unanimous effort to raise every rank In society to a higher condition of personal excellence and usefulness, and by diffus- ing equality of education to extinguish one of the most grievous of class distinc- tions.

The problem now plainly put to us Englishmen Is (his: Do you choose, among the educated nations of Europe, to remain ao ODeducated nation, or will you, tbe eduutted men of Great Britain, you, tbe political governors of England, you, tbe aristocracy and wealthy mer- chants and traders of England,—will you consent and agree that (ho education of the rising generation shall be ns good as that of any other educated people P That we may understand wbat we undertake before we give our answer, I propose to describe the organization by which the best educated nations of tbe Continent have reached their present distinction.

The first remarkable characteristic of continental education, as distinguished from our own, Is Its comprehensive meth- od, Its systematic development, and the admirable manner in which Its details are fitted to the special alms of practical life. There are English scholars, merchant

anufacturersand worklngraen that bavfl risen by personal merit to a rank which has no superior In any other country. But the intelligence which only educa- tion can give is, far mote widely diffused through every rank In life, stretches far wider and descend much lower through all clauses of society In the systematical- ly educated countries of Europe than In our own. It Is this general hUtt) level of civilization that gives rank to a nation; and it Is this broad character of general education which forms the elevated plat- form from which are to spring still high- er, tbe exceptional men of mark and dis- tinction.

The whole education of a nation may be divided Into two great cl asses: 1. That which cdiica(e8 nnd matures the man, and which we call generpl education; and l, That which specially qualifies the citizen for fulfilling that narrow rcund of duties whloh the subdivision of labor in civilized communities Imposes on the In- dividual as his special contribution to tho Commonwealth, and which we may call special or technical. The first object, therefore. Is to decide how much time In tho life of a youth shall ho occupied in studies (hat aim nt maturing his power-, and how much In obtaining the special 'nformatlon aud skill flint fit him foi special place In life.

Beginning wltb the longest term of education, the complete time occupied Is fifteen years. This term Is divided Into five periods, each of three years. Tho first begins when the pupil has reached his il'.h year, and occupies his 7th, 8th and nth years; In this period be receives primary education. Tlic second period occupies the 10th, 11th nnd 12th years, upon more advanced secondary studies. The third period corrcspsnds most nearly to the English Grammar School. The fourth corresponds to the upper forms of tbe public schools; and the fifth period, ending with the pupils' 2lst year, corre- sponds to the university period. The po* cullarity of this system la that It pervades tbe entire national education, and knows no distinction of social rank. At a given ago the rich and poor receive the ele- ments of education alike; the difference consists in the length of period during which the student or his parents can af- ford that he ehonld live without earning his living; and In special cases even that is no obstacle, for the man who shows distinguished ability or tpecial aptitude Is reckoned an honor and a gain to the community; to let him stop short, I* reckoned a public calamity j and without coining tinder tbe burden of obligation, or bending to tho humiliation of charity the distinguished son of a poor man eon - thiue.a bla cduoatlon at public cost.

EHCII course of thrte years Is perfectly organized by Itself, and In each period a co.irse Is begun and completed. The suc- cessive school periods perfectly (It Into each other, and so the education of life becomes an organized whole. To the end of the second period there Is no din t iiriioii between Hie education of one child and another; but at tbe age of twelve a difference may commence. The boy may have to earn his bread, nnd can no longer devo(e hU time to the studies of the third period; an expedient Irt pro vlded which (hies for hhn all (hat these hard circumstances will admit; a school in aid, or aii«fTiary school 1< provided for the students of tliU period. It occupies a limited number of days In the week, or sometimes a given number of hours iu the day, which are settled b.v the local authorities In conformity with local con- venience, nnd the poorest boy's cduea tlon Is thus continued, so its both to main tain his previous acquisitions, and add to them somo portion of the studies of the third period. TBIi brings him to hlsiOdi year, in which tm receives religious oor, lit tu.Hi.HI, and after which, If inevitable, his education may cuaiu.

But even now, at sixteen, M.i ■ young man's education need not altogether cease; If he Is to be apprenticed to a skilled trade It does not caase. There is an auxiliary school of tho fourth period to aid him in becoming a skilled work- man; this workman, or tradesman, or apprentice school not only keeps up bll former knowledge, but helps him to go beyond it. The (lute so occupied la again suited to local circumstances; sometimes it occupies an hour before work in tho morning, and an boor lu tha ivenlng^ or two hours In the morning and none In Hie evening; or Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning; and thus, In one shape or other, all that can help hhn to b come a good cltlseii a«d a skillful workman U accomplished, wltti an admirable stend- lasfness of purpose, to (he end lu view, and a rare flexibility In the means of do- ing It.

This brings the workman Io the end of his 18th year, and the period, It may be, of his military service. The German mil- itary service has nil Ihe good points of our university and public school systems, for the development of tbe physical pow-

ers,'or the luiiti.tiinii t.l t'tiaiaeiur at. lanners. It forms habits ot m<'thod and

order, and Is practically realized as [lie fifth period of national education tor (he working; man; lor In the schools which arc established In every mllhary depot. the highest degree of education is afford- ed which their preparatory schooling ha.- lilted them (o avail tht mselves of.

Boys who eontiuiie at school through the tbird period, and then at tbe age of fifteen go out Into irutle or buttness, have provided lor th«m ■■ kind of (rade or com- mercial r-cliuol, lormed iu (he evenligs, at.d alto on Sundays and Sa(urduy6. Tims llielr education continues until they have learned their business and reached the age for military service. The fourth period Is from fifteen to eighteen, and here a separation of destinies seems to render a separation of courses of study Inevitable. Everywhere, In educated countries, from (his time forward, two entirely different systems of education are provided,—one In which the elements of a liberal education are given without reference to the profession or trade of the pupil, the other Is strlotly technical. What the gymnasia and universities are to the learned professions, the technical colleges and universities are for the modern professions.

The filth period comes In some degree substitution for military service, s

large portion of which Is dispensed wltb In favor of tbose <*bo bave qualified them- selves by private military Instruction.

It Is easily understood that the fifth pe- riod completes the education of the youth and commences the work of the man; It Is plain that the tecbnlc university Is as Inevitably the end of education for mod ern life as the learned university for the three ancient professions. Tbe wonder will soon be, how the English nation could have so long remained comfortable' under the knowledge that out of the dozen professions for which tbe whole of her youth were destined, there were only three for which It was thought necessary to provide methodised means of Instruc- tion. It Is much to the credit of the Ger- man character that they should have out- stripped us by a whole generation or more In foresight and farsight, and should have taken measures to promote the ap- plication of all the discoveries of abstract science to the speediest, wisest and most economical solution of tbe practical prob- lems of dally life and business.

Tbe Nomination at Cincinnati.

Tho singular termination of the Con- vention nt Cincinnati is in exact keeping with its curious character; tho clans assembled there, no less than their Indi- vidual allies bad but one feeling In com- mon, to inaugurate some scheme to de- feat the election of Gen. Grant; the free traders of tho west, tbe fathers of tbe Missouri movement, had their ends to servo; tho protectionists, the revenue retormers, the ex office holders, tbe dis- appointed place seekers, and tho odds and ends generally, possessed but ono common impulse,—opposition to Grant; mistrustful of ench other, jealous of all candidates but their own, they could be expected to agree only ao long as tbe ono mutual hatred could be kept upper- most.

The Adams men became enraged witb Davis; tbe supporters of the latter were determined to delcat Trumbull, and nfter three days of contontion, in a moment of wbat puzzles everybody to know whether madness or burlesque, turned their votes over to tho sago of the Tribune. Mr. Greeley's honesty, no man questions; ho in able, In earnest and bns many bright qualities. But It Is a lamentable fact, that no public man has been so ex- tremely unfortunate in his surroundings, or susceptiblo to so muny intriguing in- fluences, and he Is so full of crochets that ho has never been able to command any considerable following within bis own party. The Democracy must now decide whether to endorso him, or go into tho fight alone; if tbe former, predict that jn choosing between tho two, three democrats in tbe country will rote for Grant to ono republican for Greeley; if the latter, then every vote for Greeley will be a vote to divide tbe republicans and let the free democracy win, and as tbe people vory readily see through a movement of tbat sort, Mr. Greeley would be suddenly without fob lowers.

It would be a rich Bight, indeed, to see tin: democracy enrolled under th> banner of Horace Greeley; how our city hall would resound with his praises from the lips of tbe three Johns. Tbe effect of the nomination is to create every- where, a laugh, which no one can enjoy moro heartily or s:tfely than Gen- Grant; If there was ever an hour when the llb- inii movement possessed a formidablo- ness, it passed with tbe nominations and settled any possible doubts of Gen. Gram's re-ekctlon.

ONDERFUL news!

Have )i>u read tht tfljaltrfulnans from

China! Surely tbr

' oelestlal" t-nri* ol the earth are geUlny ready to admit tht

light ol truth.

'I have been talk- Ins? with my dear

friend, and my heart

Is stirred. The hea- then world, aa never

before, Is calttag tor help; every breath

from over tbe ocean bring! the cry,

Come and help as! We are dying un- tsujrnt and unsaved! We, the400,000,000

of China, have not one teacher to many millions! American cbrlstlani, what

will you do for aa? We shall soon be at

jour very door—brought near by the

power of steam, only one month's dis- tance,—nearer to you than your western

states were thirty years ago!'

We are In trouble!" err the 300 000,-

000 of women and children In China.

"Come and help us; the debasing blight

of long ages of paganism and cruel rites

crushes us In the dust; ourcustoma make mothers murderers of their new-born fe-

male children; we hear a rumor that

there Is a way of deliverance from thla

dreadful sin and sorrow. Show us that

way; we are stricken at heart; we mourn

the losa of our murdered babes,—killed

before our eyes by tbe bloody bands of the lather. Let us bear tbe Gospel tbat

we may spare our daughters! Help us save the.ru; they are dear to us; we love them; our hearts yearn lor them. May

tbe curse of the God of heaven and earth

rest upon tbe Idols tbat have infused this

savage spirit ot child murder. Ob, Is

there no one coming to help us? Will no

one show us the way of escape from our

sins and oar sorrows?"

'I seem to hear, dear Grace, this cry of tbe hundreds of millions of suffering

women and children In China and the

Eaat. Ground Into tbe dust by the re-

morseless heel of Idolatry, which exists to pay wicked priests and degrade Its su-

perstitious devotees. We have been try- i-.« t. avrm a*, t.i... of inii mana ** •*'"" * lng mothers ana etiiidieu. n tnoy could file past me and I count one a second,

sixty every minute, 3,000 every hour,

twelve hours a day, the twenty years' work would blanch my cheek and silver

my hair ere it was done. 'Do you wonder tbat 1 vent to go to

China? Somebody says there Is room for

a thousand Pauls to build obrlstlan foun-

dations In that empire. 'My dear friend Is to be one of these

workmen, and It is my ambition to be his

belper; but what a work I have to do to

lit myself to be anything but a hindrance.

Mrs. Dr. Bridgeman does well to lavish her money on that hopeful Held; tbe t20,-

000 given to found girls' schools will tell

In a few years; my own little fortune

shall freclv be used In the same way. I have made ihe acquaintance of the dear

lady Just iiioted, and think missionaries

the happiest people. Hsppy, supremely happy, because tbey live for others, and

do nut need to mix In tbe vexations of

worldly buatness. 'You remember prayer Is omnipotent;

'-It moves the arm that movea tbe uni-

verse." You prayed about the Count,

and In season to save you (rom a fate

worse than death, his true character was

expoud. So, by-and-by, In snswer to

prayer, you will go to China, the help*

meetof Dr. Great Heart,and you and I will establish and auptrlntend semina-

ries to our heart's content. Yes, we will help plant happy homes, and dispel tbe

habitations of cruelty. Adieu, till we

meet. DOBA XXXUI.

It waa a Mauncbauseu boast ihe Count made his daughter Anna, when he said

that he owned mill property. It was true only that he had thought of puicbaslng

a Bliare in the Pemberton, whtn sold the.

not buy a portion of the mill, was the same that Influenced many othera, be

could not by any manner of means, mus-

ter tbe funds needed. Still, on the score of this might-have-been partial owner-

ship, he was fond or loitering and stroll-

ing over the mill; and to own and super- intend Its operations, was one of bis fa-

vorite air castlea. In truth, It was a grand and Imposing edlfloe; tt struck tbe

eye pleasantly; tbe proportions were

width. A cautions architect might ask

how the Iron rods tbat ran across the

building could hold It If tbe pillars failed.

It waa five stories high, 380 feet long by

84 feet wide. Tbe first story devoted to

weaving, the second to carding, spinning

and drawing, third to spinning, fourth and fifth to dressing, warping, spooling,

winding and reeling.

The Count admired Its many large windows,—they gave a brilliant look to

tbe building. Tbe cautious architect, If

asked to criticise, would say tbat there

was too much of a good thing—tbat they

honeycombed tbe walla and made them

weak. But our German Count, aa be

paced the mill In his favorite third atory,

nuw looking out upun the Merrlmac, and then upon the city and its background

hills, thought bow finely tbe light fa- vored the work of tbe laborers, and what

a grand thing It was In dark or short

days In the saving of gasl

It Is not recorded that tbe Count planned thla mill, but It Is nevertheless

true that It was after his own heart. Saving expenditure, deemed needless,

was a cardhi.il point wlihtilm. Cautious

architect queries. 'What were the wise

and good people thinking of, when they

planned this edifice?* Is It said It whs aa

well made as other mllls^-tben tbey are not strong enough, and are liable to fall.

So wide was tbe building that It must

have a fiat reof, whloh In winter was of-

ten piled with many tons of snow.

Then In regard to the pillars—so vital In supporting floors that are sometimes

loaded with the crushing weight of one

hundred and fifty ions or steam moved

machinery,—It Is related that two com- petitors applied for Ihe Job of furnishing hem. Tbe party tbat offered to deliver

■ In in for one eighth of a cent leu per

pound, had the contract. A hundred djpl- tars or so was thus saved. The Iron ap-

peared good, and the pillars looked fair, nut they were cast, tc Is said, in moulds

ulaced horizontally —the pith did not

#oik well, and the largest part of the

iron settled to the under side, leaving the other side very thin; the moulds are usu-

ally placed vertically that the pillars or

hollow cylinders may be of equal thick-

ness throughout. In which case one part will strengthen another and make Ibem

In effect, stronger than If solid. Over*

loaded floors and Intufllalent pillars may

have decided tbe fete of the Pemberton.

Somehow on this Identical tenth, the

uneasy Count seemed to haunt tbe mill

more. If possible, than was his wont; it Is true there was unusual stir In hoisting

by tbe elevator more machinery Into the already closely packed spinning room,

and there were four ponderous flya, of many tons weight- moved In tbe atory

below.

As the bell tolls for work, at one p. u ,

the Count Is on band, Irom an early din-

ner, and watches tbe operatives hurrying

to their posts. There Is tbe swashing of

of water In tbe basement, let In from the canal upon the machinery, and the hiss-

ing of steam;—belts begin to move, and

flyers to rattle, while picker, drawer,

speeder, spinner, warper and loom, all

up through tbe lofty five stories, begin at once to pick the cotton, form the rolls,

and apln and weave the cloth—the won-

derful result of marvellous mechanism.

The Count at length steps Into tbe ele-

vator as It descends, after disgorging its heavy freight, to make further acquain- tance with tbe workings of the Washing-

ton and Duck mills; be still cherishes

tbe fancy that he Is to marry Grace,

despite the very decided rebuff* he has

met, and the criminal suit In prepara- tion to arrest his movements. If he mar-

ries her be plans to step Into mill owner-

ship, and deems It wise to become posted

In regard to the wisest mansgement of such property; he tarries In the counting

rooms, questions tbe superintendents, nan llUitra <M aarHw, — -. past four Is again ready to ascend to the tblrd stof of tbe Pemberton, In tbe ele-

vator, and go on with his Investigations; he admires the skill displayed In tnat

well-filled bee hive of a spinning room.

'No Idle space here I* he exclaimed In

tbe din, as he alighted, and again beheld the closely-packed, whirring machinery.

'I don't believe Gynn, the old fogy,

half occupies bis floors; wait till I come,

air, and I'll show you how mouey Is made, and I'll put some life Into your

concern!' and he chuckled at the Idea of

bis prospective administration of affaire.

At this moment, Mr. O'Connor pasaed tbe

Count, who was at tbe south eod, on bis way out of tbe mill. The Count did not

choose to recognise him, but with an eye

to business, sought Mr. Jackson, tbe overseer ol the story, who was some

eighty feet nearer tbe centre of the vast

apartment, giving directions about a new

machine. In tbe low, exhausted tone com-

iiiou as the dav declines. The machinery waa as fresh and tire-

less as ever, whirring, rattling snd rum-

bling in the stones above, clamoring,

clanking and thundering in the rooms below. Suddenly, as if an earthquake

shook It. the spacious building trembled beneath Its load; a sickening horror

seized the occupants. A crash! The floor

ol tbu third story near the south end

gave way, and twenty-four spinning

frames, with tbelr operatives aud the

Count himself, went down 1 Girls rushed frantically In every direc-

tion,—for the windows, for the elevator,

for the stairway, when the mammoth

ill), with one crash, crumbled to Ihe

earth, toppling down Its huge piles of

machinery, broken timbers, bricks and

mortar, and crushing hundreds of

writhing victims. A great cry of an- guish went up to heaven. Never was

such a wall board In all tbe land. Calls

for help, shrieks and dying groans came ceaselessly from the gory, widespread ruin, covering an aoro of ground, while crowds of anxious citizens hastened to

seek their missing relatives and friends. With superhuman speed and strength,

heavy shafting and rubbish were cleared

away. A few near the top of Ihe ava-

lanche were one after another easily res- cued, some sightly, others bsdly wound-

ed. Three young girls were seen In the

wash room In tbe fifth story, a section of

which was still standing. There was

great excitement and many plans sug-

gested for their rescue, but none suc-

ceeded until some daring fellows were enabled to reach them by placing ladders

upon a fallen roof, and one by one

brought them safely down.

The twilight soon gave way to tbe

deeper gloom of darkness, and by the

light of bonfires ihe work of tesculng the

sufferers went on. A man shouted for help beneath a great timber, and when It

was lifted, four crushed and bleeding

bodies were found and carried to the

City Hall, which had been thrown open as a hospital; bloody fragments of bod-

ies were continually drawn out, aa the

earnest workers sought to reach the liv-

lng, whose cries for help, In some cues,

came from tbe depths of the debris; the dead, the badly wounded and tbe dying

were constantly being borne to the Hal), followed by groups of people seeking to

recognise friends.

Mr. O'Connor had scarcely reached

home when the mill fell; he Immediately retraced bis steps as be beard tbe appall-

ing roar and din; soon a messenger

brought tbe news ot the catastrophe to

Mrs. O'Connor. Anna Htllllng, scarce- ly able to leave ber room, listened, and

learned that Count Stilling was In the

Pemberton when tt fell; the Hit le girl, in

that dread hour, bad all tbe child's love

for a father return, and, under Its Inspira-

tion, threw on a woolen dress, hood and rubbers, and unwatcbed slipped down

stairs and followed the excited family to tbe scene or the calamity- The affection,

that tinder the father's cruelty seemed

dormant, burst Into flame, and tbe trail girl, Inspired with wondrous strength and

energy, mounted the lofty ruin, and ran here and there over toppling timbers,

leaping the gulfs, and calling,,'Father I

father 1 Where are yon?'In despairing, heart-broken tones. Ah, no one knows

how much she loves tbe one who bas

sinned against ber until he Is In peril, and

needs her old. She reaaooed, *U he Its *■ hurt, and I help him out and take care of

him, he will be good and love me, and I

do so want my father to love me!' But voice made answer to her call, and

although she was untiring In the search

all over that field or blood and rubbish.

she found no trsce of him; still she held rast her brave hope and said, 'It may be

be lives deep down In some room under

tbe timbers.' Lanterns and torches lighting small

portions or the ruin, only served to make tbedatkuess more appalling. Alas! the

worst was to come! A lamp was over-

turned by a workman, and tbe flames catching the oiled cotton, spread like

wlld-flre; then, Indeed, did Anna's heart and many thousands as well, sink In de-

spair. A deeper and more dreadful cry

of anguish arose from the vast wreck,

and from frantic friends.

But all were not sad;—ibere was joy

even there! A group of Christian girls, la the depths of the ruin, knowing that

they muat die, bad dying grace given

them, and met the grim messenger,

chanting one of ihelr loved Sabbath hymns, and Anna and many others heard

them slog:—

"My falher'a bonee la built oa hlfh. Far, far above tbe atarry eky; When from tbla earthly priaoa trot, Tbat heavenly man.Ion mine .hall be.

I'm solas home, I'm folnjr bomr, I'm tolnt borne to die no more,"

And tbae, In martyr-like triumph, tbey

passed away to appear glorious In the

land where there Is no sorrow, and where

none shall hurt or destroy.

Thrilled with horror by the fall of the

great factory, ihe whole country around

was In the wildest excitement; tbe houses

of tbe city were lighted, stores kept open, and the Inmates were at tbe ruin, or on

the street questioning passera-by. Every effort was made to rescue tbe perishing.

By means of ropes, bsrs and ladder*, sev- enty-five were 'plucked as breads from

the burning.' Those In the weaving room, mostly men, escaped, the stone

estimated that some five sixths of "the seven hundred operatives, most miracu-

lously escaped or were drawn out. Bet all this Anna did net know; It

seemed to her tbat almost all would per-

ish. Yet she saw at a little distance a man held fast by timbers, and, as the fire

approached, he seized hold of a fireman,

who, In his efforts to got away, dragged the man out. She saw a young girl of

her own age held fast by a beam, crying

heart rendlngly, and the flames so hot and fierce, that tbe men bad to leave her to her fate. Anna sank fainting at the sight,

and Mr. O'Connor, coming up at the

Instant, bore ber home, accompanied by

his wife, who had a wouoded brother In

charge. Oa rushed the fire-fiend, unchecked by

the pouring of many engines. Time falls

to tell of the deeds of the aog.-l of charity In woman's heroism and man's bravery, —how, when no one could be found to

help remove a threatening portion of tte ruins a woman rushed forward and seized

bold of the rope, and men springing to ber assistance, many lives were saved—

of tbe wonderful escape of Olivia Bridges, who, bearing the crashing of the build-

ing, ran to tbe holstway, and dfsoendlng

five stories, by tbe ohaln, escaped. 'The flre spread on In the ruins,' aaya

an eye witness, ispplng up the dead and

allva alike, while the flre department poured on water, and dug at the pile

with auperbuman endeavors, and alter two days and two nights ol toll, the thou-

sands or laborers were obliged to give way before the lire, and such as still re- mained In the mountainous ruin were

consumed to ashes; tbe cries which had

been growing weaker and weaker, were

at last drowned by tbe bluing and roar- ing of tbe terrible flre; and scragged,

blsckened wreck of Iron and brlok was

all that remained of the great cotton-fac-

tory, wblob, by tbe adoption of a short-

sighted policy, was lightly and weakly constructed by cheap labor.'

After tbe excitement of the flre, Anna

was very feeble; It was so dreadful to

think of the awful death or her father, and ahe was brooding over It In tears the

third day, when Miss Grace Gynn waa announced.

'Dear Anna,' she said, stooping to kiss

her, 'I have come to take you home with me to see your little sister.'

O, thank you I thank you! la my El-

ate Indeed with you? Can I go now?

Shall I truly And my darling sister?' were the overjoyed exclamations of the child,

as the dark cloud over ber showed Its sil-

ver lining. •You shall go presently If you are

able,' waa the cheery reply.

-My good Mrs. O'Connor, can you get

this darling little girl ready to go back

with me? I'll see tbat she has new

clothes, if needed.' 'It's a grief and heart-scalding It will

be to me parting with the pretty-spoken

colleen,' replied the kind woman, with

tearful eyes. 'But If she pines for her

sister, 'twould be selfish to withhold

her.'

Just then, Paul entered, and Grace, greeting him warmly, offered him tbe

situation of her father's coachman.

'And wonld 1 bo driving the purty col

leens, God bless them, and see them ev- ery blessed day?1

And on Grace's aasnrlng blm that he would, he joyfully agreed to accept tbe

aitustlon and to accompany ber home.

There was a joyful meeting that day In

Gynnboro; Grace was quite In her ele- ment, and tbe children's love lor ber had

s rapid growth.

At bedtime they happily prattled them. selves to sleep In their own beautiful

room which opened from one of Grace's

apartments.

'I have been praying that I might see

you, darling 1' cried Anna, kissing her sister anew as she folded her arms about

her neck.

'And I prayed to see you ever so nany tlmea! Mover said we could pray for

what we wanted,' ecbodfttbe loving little one.

Truly, oa Tennyson says, 'more things are wrought by prayers than thla world dreams of.'

Oannax ST. METHODIST.

RBV. L. P. Catbmao, pastor, preached from Oal.vl, H; "God forbid that I should glory save ta the cross or oar Lord Jesus CbrUt." The term "the cross of Christ" Is used In the Scriptural with a variety of significations; sometimes It refers to lbs wooden cross on which the Lord Jesus was crucified. But thla was not the cross in which Paul gloried. Such ulorvlng would have made him a papist, or an idolater, bat not a Christian. By tbe phrase "the cross of oar Lord Jesns Christ," Paul doubtless mesns the doctrine that Christ died upon tbs cross to purchase salvation for the race. The preaching of this was a stnmbllng Mock to tha Jaw and foolishness to the Omsk, bnt to the Apostle, a subject or rejoicing sad glorying. Why r 1. Because or Its antiquity. True, tba oldness of a theory Is no evidence of Its truth. Perhaps error la coeval with truth; nod yat it la also true tbat any opinion which affects the foundation of religion, as the condi- tions of the sinner's acceptance with God, can- not be true if it be new. All of these mnst be as old as tba rail; It waa then that tbey were all settled. The first sacrifices were Its types. Abel, as he lilted up hi* bleeding lamb upon hi* new-made altar, referred to It, patrlarcba and prophets taught it. S. Ha gloried In the "cross of our Lord Jssns Cbrlit;" that Is, tbe Justification of guilty man through a propitia- tory sacrifice, because it affJrds tha only sure grounds of confidence to a penitent sinner. 3. Re gloried in tbe cross of our Lord Jesua Christ became of the divine energy which marked lbs promulgation of It, Everything rose up to oppose it. All the adverse preju- dices and bad passions or Ihe people; all their ancient institutions, yes, and the cruel sword, too, was lifted up, and tbe whole world were together up In arms against It t and yet It pre- vailed till at length tha apostle* could say, "Now thanks be unto God who nlways esnseth us lo triumph In Christ, and maknth manifest tba savor of his knowledge by as la every place, i. He gloried In tbe cross of our Lord Jeans Christ because of Its social snd moral re- sults. There are moral triumphs which sur- round tho cross of Christ with a glory which neither philosophy, legislation nor arts can presnme to equal. 5. ne gloried in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ because all was glo- rious around it. There wa. a glorious Saviour, a glorious object In view, a glorious work ac- complished.

ST. Joint's SriscoPAL.

There was the usually good attendance at tblschnach, During tba morning service, after the singing of the Tn Deum, the ordinance of baptism was administered to seven children and two adults. At the conclusion of tbe ser- vice, tbe rector, Rev. James II. Lee, preached irom the 13th verse of the 10th chapter of Mark | "Yerily I say unto yon, whosoever shall not receive tbe kingdom of Ood as a little child he shall not enter therein,"—drawing a most beaatital Illustration from the simple faith of the little children who had Jut beea brought to him to receive the sacrament or baptism, and urging upon his hearers the necessity of receiv- ing the kingdom or God as allllle child,and sub- in itting themselves lothtir Heavenly Father. Those who believe In Ihe revelation of Christ shall be saved. We cannot merit this by our acts; It Is only as we believe and accept tbe Uospel of Christ as s little child that we can be saved.

Tha Sunday School service was held In tha church In the afternoon, consisting of Evening Prayer, with a lesson from the Catechism and tbe collect for tba day-

la the evening ibe bouse wss very full. After Evening Prayer the rector took for bfa tent, Kph- lv. 13: "nil we all coma in tbe unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of ibe Son or Ood, onto a perfect man, nnto tbe measure of tha stature of the fulness of Christ." This re- lated to the completion of our Lord's wotk upon earth and hi* ascension Into heaven. IIs fought the battle of llle that wa might come an to ihe perfect man. Tbe way of attaining nnto the peifect man l* la the unity of the faith and of tho, knowledge of the Son of God, wblcb Is Identical with knowing ourselves, We can never know ouraelvea aright until we know the Son of Uod, Follow, then, tbe voice which is within you. Follow tbat wblcb is best and no- blest, because It Is lbs vote* of God leading you nmo tba perfect man- We find the only source of salvation la Jesus Christ, Wo reverence ibo one perfect man, tbe Sun Christ Jssai. We racogolts la blm our Saviour, our Lord, our Head. Than Is oo other way whereby we ceo be saved.

On Sunday morning Mr. A- T. Clark of the Aodovar Bemloery, prasched a sermon at thla church from Luke ail.

HavanRiLL STUNT HITHODTBT.

The forenoon sermon wa* preached by llev Dr- Barrow*, from Kitklel xxxvii. 7. "Sol prophesied ai I was commanded, sod a* I prophesied there was a noise, snd behold a ■baking, and tha bones cams together bone to his bone." Tha preacher considered first the object presented to tbe prophet's vision; the Honaa of Israel was presented under the figure of s valley of dry bones. There were three peculiarities to the vision; tba bones were des- tltute of sll tbe appendage* of life, destitute of skin, flash and sinews, and very dry, Indicat- ing a destitution of nil spiritual life In the peo- ple. They were also vsry numerous, indicat- ing the widespread nature of ilo; tbe valley was full. Iletbtn considered Ibe duty en joined upon tbe prophet) ha was to take a thorough vlsw of them, and lo afford him thst view be was carried out In tbe Spirit and set down In the midst of them. This indicates that we are to become thoroughly acquainted with the world, and all Its sin and corruption. After he examined tbe bones he was called upon to give an opinion ol them. " Will they liv*?" He wa* commanded to pray tbat they

might" coma O breath and breathe upon these slain." He next considered the remits of tbe prophet's discbarge of duty. There was an ex cltement among bones which suggests the af- reet produced npon ihe world by the promul- gation or truth. Pint a noise, then a shaking which indicate* tha knocking down ol raise creed*, 4c, among men. Than oot or tbt* there grew order, bone returned to his bone a* order is drawn out af tbe chaos or the moral world by the preaching of the Divine word. But with order there came not life, oot until he prayed " come blow O breath," showing thai nothing less thai God's Iloly Spirit can give that lite which I* lbs essence of Christianity- lu conclusion be said tbe prophecy was an In- dication of tbe final restoration of the Jews and their conversion to the true faith. The exercises at the Sunday school in the afternoon were very interesting.

CKMTIAL COXOaBOATIOXAL. At this church Rev. Mr Park preached a

sermon from the test, Lake x. 38 to 43. The ■urject was the character* of Mary and Mar- thu. Tbe preacher began by saying that tho dealings of our Saviour wltb this family form an Interesting picture of him In hi* domestic relation*. Although homeless himself he had tha natural longing for a home, which doubt- less led 10 his Intercourse with this family. Mary and Marios each loved the Saviour, bnt each manifested thst love la different way*. Martha showed ber affection by bustling activ- ity; too much pains could not be taken to gratify their guest. Mary sat still and contem- plated tbe Saviour. One ahowed blm affection by deed*, the other by feeling and thought. Mary and Martha were retpeetlre tf pea of two great classes lo ibe church ; tbey expressed tbe spiritual question snd tbs material, tbe inward and outward religious life; the whole influence or tbs Monastery and lb* convent belong to tbe school of Mary. Tbi forelgs- Mlnlonary, tbe Sunday icbool teacher, the olty Mission, tba Jail aud prison reformer, the practical re- ligious worker of every description follows tbe school of Martha. It Is not well for either of these classes to deiplsa each other. Tbey are respectively the head snd hand of Ibe church. Religious principle develops Ood- wsrd and manward; tbe true Christian inoald show a proper element of both.

UrllVIESALtST. Rev. Mr. Weaver, the pistor, preached on

Tba Death by gin.—from Rom. o;l3. "Where fore, is by on* man, sin entered Into the world and death by sin; and so death passed upon all mentor tbat all have sinned "

Ha aald the theme bed been suggested to him by tbe report* In the AitnniOAX two weeks ago of a Catholic and a Protestant clergyman aayiog, tbat "tin bronabt death Into tbe world," He knew that to be tho doctrine of their chnrches, but betlaved it to be unicrlptn- ral, untrue, and morally unwbolesome- Tbe goapel strive* to abolish tbe natural fear of death, bnt thf* doctrine tnteaslfles It,—make* death ibe curse of God, the dire punishment

bringing death Into Ihe world by sin- Bnt this 1* the letter which dsairoy* ibe true sense ir we do not look deeper. It was not physical death, but something which that represents. Tbe speaker gave a number of passages of tbe same construction, and said tha latter of them all was borrowed from Motes, who m*ke* Ood ray to Adam, " la tbe day thou eatest thereof thou shslt surely die." But Adam did not die a physical death at the time of hi* transgression, but lived a long life after It. He passed through a great change of condition which is called death,—a change from iono cenceto ml It, from righteousness lo sinful- new, from bspplness lo misery.

Physical death wei in the world before Adam. Aalmats had died for ages before be lived; the rocks below hit feet were full of tbe remains of dead animals. la his physical con- stitution he was ao animal made to return to the dust from whence he come. Before be sinned be at;, and breathed snd slept to sup port bis physical life. If either of these sources of support had been cnt off, he would have died. Adam's sin then did not bring physical death into the world, bnt gnllt, shame. anguish, debasement. And all the passage* borrowed Irom Ihe Rdeo story of Adam's I'esth by sin, tescb thst sin brings guilt, sorrow, degradation to every sln.-er. This Is tbe death that has passed upon sll men (or tbat all have sinned. Paul says " to be carnally minded I* death." He says also, " Sin, taking occasion i.y the commandment, deceived me, and by It slew me." And sgalo be *ayi, " I wai alive wlthcnt ibe law once; hut when tbe command- meat came, lin revived and I dial." Sin bad made him deal in carnal mindedness. So all the Christiana or his time bad beea dead in trespasses sod sin*.

Fain BAPTIST,

services were conducted by A, L. Honghtou, of Lewlston' Ma. Averypowcrrulendeloquer.t discourse was presented morning and after- noon, eliciting tbe closest attention or an un- maslly large audience. Tbe text of the morn- ing *ermon was Irom Matt, x: 34,—"Think not thst I am corns to sand peace on Ibe earth, I c*me not to trod peace, but a eword."

Theme; Through wir be peace. The advent of Christ brought disappointment even to those most expecting him. The angel* bsd sung or peace and good-will to the shepherds, sad the

Jews expected tbs peace of a triumphant tern poral reign. Christ came oot to deliver tbelr country from Rome, but to free tbelr souls from sin; he could not btiog peace world, for that waa In *ln; his Is a kingdom of rlghteouinesi, snd righteousness and sin ore antsgoalatle. The final object of Christ's mission was peace, bnt thla peace woe to be galaed through conflict; this i* not the peace or compromise, but the peace which corns* from conquest over evil. Christ came to in- augurate war, ibat bs might establish peace; thf* Is in harmony with our experience la all moral reforms; agitation always attends these; tbe whole history or tba church exhibits it; John the Boptlit was an agitator, and men feared that Christ sad the apostles would sub- vert ail their cherished Institution*. Luther, and Zaingle wars agitators, and tb* saviors of Ibe church. The lesson for as, Is, to learn what is true, and to do what Is light, la spits of all opposition. There Is no excuse In onr age for servility of thought or action; to the bold soldier of Christ come* the peace fore- told by prophet*, mag by bard*, and chanted by the angels.

prasched a sermon from tha following: —" He ross again tbs third dav according to the scrip- tures;" 1 Cor. xv: 4, "Who Is gone law heaven and is oa the right band of Ood;" 1 Peter HI; 23. It was necessary that the event or tbe resurrection of Christ Jesus from the dead, should ba amply and most convincingly proved, and It la, as a fact, supported by every speciM of testimony that tbe most cautious seeker for tbe truth could demand. It was at- tested by angel* from heaven, by hi* dldptes, not credulous men, wba were convinced by bis being with them, eating and drinking wltb them, and showing to them tbe wounds io bl* bauds and feet and side, by tha soldiers who were terrified oy tbe appearance or tba ang< I* and tba accompanying earthquake, and who fled Into tbe city to tetl tbe woaderlul story to tha Chief Priest*, and by tbe anemias or the Basionr la the fabrirstlon of tba most Int pro' a ble of all .torles, that while tbe guard ofalxn men slss-t, Ibe aiiclple* came and stole uwtt the booy.

Altsr remarking upon oilier reasons lor our estimating Ibetsct of Christ'* resarreotioo a* Io tb* highest de- gree Important, the preacher passed to coo-ld ■ ar tbe ascension of Jetui, commemorated on Tbunday last.

There was a visible departure, a real removing In their ■Igbt of that body of Christ which wo* before •<rM,»n».i,rai, which Is taken np from yon Into beaveo, aball so come lo like manner a* you have a*sn him go Into heaven." Tbe as- cension of Christ Jesus was necessary to fulfil the various typo* and prophecla* prefiguring and promising it under tha patriarchal and Jewish dlspeasetiaus, but It was specially nsc- esssiy for tbe full exercise of tba various offices which pertain to bis medlatership, and ihe effectual discharge or Ihe work* ha had under- taken, at prophet, priest, kiog of bis church and peoplo.

MAY FESTIVAL —The M»y feBtlvil In

abi of the flHUbllshmcnt of a State Hom-

eopathic UoiplUl, belt) at the city ball on Monday evening, waa of a very at-

tractive character. Tbo festival wag pro-

Jectctl some time ago> and the arrange- ments for Ita consummation have lor some time been going onlculi]ilnailng~ last

evening In one of the most delightful parlies wc have witnessed for some time.

The Platform ol the ball was gaily dec-

orated with evergreen \ In the centre waa placed lh» throne of the Queen oi

the May, which was also (tally adorned.

The Festival was participated in by

twenty-three young ladles, and after the

singing of eouie choice music, Mlsa Car- rie Cutler was chosen Qjeeu of the May,

tbe floral diadem was placed upon her head by ber slater Ml<s T.'llie Cutler,

whose appearance rendered her charm-

ing enough to have equal claims to the distinguished honor conferred upon her

sister. Miss Nettle Bueil then presented

the QoflM with her sceptre, alter which

the retinue of her llsjaity sang a song In

herhotior, and circling around the throne,

laid their floral tributes at her feet. The •paetaolo was a very beautiful one,and

i witnessing one could scarcely smother pang of regret that a custom so beni-

tllul and so attractive to youth should bo fust dying out Tbo dance around tho

.May polo, which wai placed In tho centre of the hall, followed to the delight of tbe

spectators. This concluded the hall was leared, and the older people proceeded

to take part In the feailvni. Dancing was

kept up with spirit unlll about twelve

o'clock. Tl.e young ladles participating

In the festival besides those already men-

tioned were: MUsei Ella B*»0, Carrie

Whlttler, CUM Eaton. Annlo Ilrown. Llwle Halsbury, tienle Menill, Fannie

Herrlll, Mary Lfttbrop, Clara Weaver, Fannie True, Helen I'atker, Annie Per-

kins, It. 11'- Flanders,Cora I'otter, Emma Sanborn, I.'z7.le White, Nellie Stoddard,

Ella Bailey, Joalo Endley and Mary Ley-

land. During the evening Ice cream and coft'ee were served with cake. Carnej's

hand famished the music, which was generally spokan of as being excellent.

Altogether the affair was. highly success- Inl, and gnve much pleat-ure to nil wbo

attended. It U a matter for regret that

the »![• ndnnce was not larger; as it Is,

however, something over llfty dillars,

will be cleared for tbe object in the aid

of which the Festival was held.

as to whether she could get along with

Fine—About i o'clock Tuesday morn-

log an alarm was sounded from Box i:i, and although this hour B tbe most unfa-

vorable of the entire twenty-four for

promptly turning out the tire depart- ment, yet the entire force was present In

a very short time. The tire was at Not.

I'it'- and 408 Common street, and was Ig-

nited from a lighted lamp being left upon

a table In a room where two children had retired for the night, the lamp

communicated damca to the table cover-

ing, which In turn eattght lira to tbe bed clothing. A cry ol fire brought police-

men to tbe scene, and In a moment offi- cer Vandyke threw tbe burning bed from

tbe window and tbe dames were arrested

without the aid of tbe firemen; as usual

the fire alarm wai worthless la defining

the locality of tbe Are; It was sounded from Box 13, and while tbe Catholic

church bell and the Paclllo bell sounded the number correctly, tbe city hall bell,

tho heaviest of the three, struck the num- bers 22. 23 and 24 Such a condition of

the tire telegraph is worse than the old

method, and If our city government can-

not correct this evil tbe Are alarm tele-

graph had far better be dispensed with.

In this connection we would suggest that a box be located In the immediate vicinity

of ttic Are of this morning. Here Is one

f the most densely settled portions of

lie city, tbo buildings almost entirely omposed of wood, with two large sta-

bles in their midst, and In cue of lire no

alarm can be sounded rearer than tbe

railroad station, the PactAo Mills, at the

corner of Oik and White streets, or the

corae'r of Lawrence and Eis^x streets,

whence the alarm was sounded this morning,—a full charter of a mile from

tbe scene ol tbe lire. This mutter should

be remedied at once.

1 forgot that It waa wathlng day; I forgot thai spring wardrobes needed attending lo; I forgot that atocklogf are ever holey, or fhlruever button leu; I utterly Ignored Ibe batcher and the baker, I even pat out of my contcloniDeee the fact that I was a mother, and remembered only that the sun waa fhlning. tbe graai growing, the blrda tinging, and that nature generally waa getting Into a glorified elate. 11 my morning In the I'atk did roe good— and moat aaeuredly It did—I owe the refreshment lo the fact tbat I forgot all the above mentioned. It doea a woman vary little good to go to tbe Park If she take* her houae and all It* eon ten U with bar. Now If I had carried along my wssbcrwotnan.all tbe material for Ibe cblldren'a new lulls, the house cleaning, which nut be done pretty soon, several ea.Hr* or family discipline, the new girl, the death of my cooaln'i baby, the unfortunate marriage or my aunt,- the plump widow that waa, and revere! other anxieties that I could mention, why you could eee with half an eye tbat I should have reeelvcd very little beoafji. No, I knjw loo much for that. When J shut my front door I aliut In all thoaa petty wort lea, and opened my whole aoul to Ood'i new creation. In Ihla receptive alaic [ heard and aaw wondarfnl Ihlngi.

A) I those carload* of wrary looking mtn and women. Evidently they had not left their trouble* behind. Ah, no I Well Street waa written on feme . 1 their faeaa In gre*l, uneven, nervous lettere. On oibrrs 1 saw dabt as plainly a* I *aw tbe noae; on other* there were ac- count* like poor little l)ora'>,ilial wouldn't "add up;" oibere were degraded by a foul aecret; othera at allied by Ibe beglnnUgiof falaehood* | and others oarrowea and Hoed by little earea, each a tilOe ID itaelf, but a-l iwrd lo enter tbe aoul, bad destroyed It* bert growth*.

Being only a poor lonely little dwarf, ebe bad prob ably given herself to Ood with all her imill Inter- erts, and in relurn be waa helping her carry her basket. It I* a great deal easier for a dwarf to go Into the kingdom of heaven than a man or woman »o tall tbaldivluehelpla left out of tbcqnettlon.

Well, I reached the Park at last. It Waa vary ■till, for being Monday morning, probably most or tbe oltlieneof our glorlona metro poll* wan wash- ing one kind of dirty linen or another,

made moat of tbe nolae, and they aecmed lo be un- nauallywlde awake. Their convenatlon seemtd to bo mostly about love, and I heard one young, pretentlon* robin, with a very ted rreeat, any som*- thing about the freedom of love. I waa on the point of asking hi* opinion on tbe subject, bnt be- fore I could apeak half Ibe birds la t ha Park were lo an uproar, telling that all their neits would go to smaab before they were built up If aver he ottered such wordi again. I'm sure tbe poor fellow didn't mean anything wrong, bnt he had uo chance to ex- plain hlmaelf, and flew off, evidently disgusted. Tbat controversy summarily settled I looked round me. The mowers, I found, bad been In the Park already. The turf looked an velvety a* In midsum- mer ; and the dandelions, bleaa their honest hearts I how they did smile from ont their coiy nooks In tbe grass. Dandelion* ara not generally appreciated; bat In their place I think that they couldn't be bet- tered. Tbey remind me of a jolty lutle dairy maid, and what I* better than a dairy maid, with her arm* In the eurd up to her elbow a.

1 will DOW consider the great institu- tions which foreign nations hare prorid- ed for the technical training of their yonth. It will be highly iostrnctire to notice how these great educational col- leges extend over all the divisions of so- ciety, high and low, embrace erery kind of occupation, and aid erery branch of industry. As the example of an educat- ed nation, I might hare taken the sym- metrical and perfectly organized institu- tions of Prussia, or those of a country boasting a personal freedom, equal to, or greater than our own, like Switzer- land. But I think it may be more use- ful to as to see bow much more is done than in our country by some ol the smaller, unpretending states; by some one of those little kingdoms, of which we English know little, care less, and rather despise.

The nation which I select shall be Wnrtemburg. I select It as a model nation on a small scale, and therefore more easily studied, and more readily comprehended. It contains only a pop- ulation of 1,700,000, or one twelfth that of England. There is at the summit for professional men :—

1st, The Polytechnic University, at Sluttgardt, which Is meant to edu- cate the highest class of professional men. Among these are the modern professions of civil engineers, mechani- cal engineers, and architect*. There is a course for the mercantile and commer- cial classes. There Is a course of chem- istry, with its applications of the chemi- cal arts and manufactures, and there la a coarse of general superior scientific and literary education for professors, lecturers, and men of leisure.

The building appropriated to this par- pose forma one of the piles of finest mod- ern archltectore in StattgardL There are no less than fifty-one professors and teachers, and besides the usual lecture rooms and studies, there are a chemical laboratory, a physical laboratory, min- eraioflcal museums, laboratories for constructive experiments, pi aster-modcl- ing rooms, rooms for drawing, a botanl- ctl garden, and an astronomical observ- atory.

d, A second, and even more remark- able educational institution. Is the school for the building trades, alao in Stult gardt. It is now one of the most re- markable and meritorious schools on the continent. The men whom It was especially designed to help In their trades, were stonemasons, bricklayers, and carpenters, to be trained for future master-builders; lower class builders to be trained for master-builders, construct- or;! of public works, subterranean works, and constructors of reservoirs, construct- ors of water works, river works, and mill works, and land surveyors of the first and second class. The general workmen whose education it undertakes are plasterers, tilers, roofers, Joiners, carpenters, glaziers, turners, decorators, ornament sculptors,, moulders, engrav ers, smiths, gold and silver workers, gardeners and husbandmen. For young men who are much employed in winter, and less in summer, it provides summer courses of study, and gives ibem vaca- tion in winter, and race rerso. It has claaaes In the early morning, the same at mid-day, and the same orer again in the evening; and the hours of the dif- ferent, classes are so timed lhat the pu- pil may attend many or few hours of the day, and still obtain the studies he re- quires. This school Is presided orer by the most distinguished architect of War* temburg, with no fewer than twenty- eight professors and masters under him, and is crowded by exactly that claas or men whom it was intended to benefit.

3d, The next class of institutions, are schools for country occupations and trades, and are distributed throughout the districts, and are called "agriculture and forestry establishments." There is first, a great institution with twenty-one masters, divided into the farming school, the gardening school, and special agri- cultural courses. It has under it, three practical farming schools. In three dif- ferent districts, and each school has un- der its care tOO square miles of territory, and there are subordinate schools dis- tributed throughout the country There are also winter evening schools in the villages, so that last year, in 5L'3 places, 12.010 persons enjoyed the privilege of agricultural instruction. Supplementary to the agricultural education, is an in- stitution for the anatomy, physiology, training, and diseases of animals; it is the Veterinary college of Sluttgardt. Attache.1 to it. are an hospital, in which --'■j animals were treated; a dog hospi- tal. In which JM animals were treated; a smitliv, in which (-'»•'' animals were shod.

With such upper schools for the tech- nical training ol the people, ail of which require preliminary qualification, tested by an entrance examination, the prepar- atory schools aro"indispeneible. There are accordingly eighty-eight public schools, separated into classical and science schools. Immediately below these are the public elementary schools, and establishments for private instruc- tion ; and. auxiliary to these, technical school-, ol the humblest kind. In which girls are taught their bnsineas aa boustj- •.•'!"!-. .u.il Tjuya ..*■• lratno.1 tn i>...

simplest duties of life.

The first remarkable circumstance in this national system of schools is, the number an.! atlon of the teachers. The second, is, the thorough- ness and extent of the courses of edacs- Uon. The third, is, the extent of the material organisation for teaching, the argeness and beamy of the buildings,

the nature of the museums and libraries which are attached to them, and the provisions for practical instruction in the nature of workshops, farms, hospi- tals and muuuius. The last Is. the na- ture, character, business, and number of the students who attend these Institu- tions, and their regularity and proficien- cy. In answering the question whether all this admirable and systematic organ- ization for the teaching of a whole peo- ple has been attended with any sensible result upon tho character, manners, and works of the people ol those countries, I begin by saying, that when I compare in the same country the persons who had attained maturity before this system was institute.!, and lhat younger gener- ation which has gone through it, and come out Into the world of practical experience. I say without hesitation that they are more cirilized, and that they set about their work la a wiser shorter, leas waaletal way. When ! meet an ordinary agricultural peasant, I find bim more intelligent and better inlormed, than a peasant of the same class at home, lie will talk politics with me, becsuse be has read it in his newspaper; he will talk theology, for he studied it at school; he will discuss the Italian question, the Austrian ques-

tion, and the French question, because i __ _. __ . _ at school, la the second period, he stud-' J(, ^ j\l (j V A Li ied their geography, because he la up in J their political history, and he knows all | that has taken place in his own country from it* earliest invasion.

In the street, in an educated country, I see the absence of rude and rough manners, and I recognise a general as-, pert of superior intelligence. It ta no- »»" torious that in Germany and Swltzer-

M. J. OHAPIN'S OEHRBAL

J land their railways are made cheaper and better than ours. The experienced traveler can read as he travels the work of a superiorly educated class of men, and we everywhere feel that we are in the hands of men who have spared no pains, and who have applied high pro- fessional skill to minute details. The one thing In which our railways excel theirs, ta In high speed. Theirs are cheaper, more durable, more sate, and in all their appointments more beautiful and more eonrenlent. In erery country where technical education has taken root, and had time to bear fruit, I find unquestionable proofs of the rapidity with which increased intelligence and enlarged knowledge bring increase in employment and remuneration. I hstvo seen large branches of commercial trade leare one country and plant themselves in another, because the workers of the one were educated, and those of the other uneducated; and I bare watched nations rising into importance and pow- er in Europe, by education, and by the order, organization, and efficiency which education bestows; and other nations lagging behind and losiog their place by reason of their unwillingness to edu- cate either the higher or the lower class- es of their people.

Recreation After Business-

The opinion bks been very generally expressed that the last Legislature worked harder, did more business, and terminated Its session earlier than any previous legislature since 1802—3; when the session closed the House held Its usual mock session, and the pleasantries that were Indulged in. the rich jokes tbat were perpetrated, and the genial humor that pervaded the assemblv of law-mak- ers, went far lo compensate for the hard work of the session. After the election of the speaker Ihe House proceeded to the transaction of buslQess,and one of the bills Introduced was an act to harmon- ize proceedings In this Commonwealth; one of tbe sections was tbat the language u*ed In drawing Indictments shall be In Latin or Choctaw; this was a pleasant piece of satire, as the passage of an act with such a section could scarcely make Indictments less Intelligible than tbey are now; another section forbids tbe use of English words excepting when an attor nej desires to swear. An act relating to obstructions of the public streets caused much amusement; It provided tbat co horse should be driven at a rate less than four miles an hoar. The penalty for vio- lation being that the driver should chance places with the animal; an act to length- en the sessions of the Legislature was both witty and satirical; It provided that the session should be long enough to ex- haust tbe credit of members at their ho- tels; It should never be so short as to preclude tbe possibility of a tall man get- ting Into It; It also provided that tbe pay of members should be |8 6J per day, sixty-two cents per day for board, and the fire dollars for contingent expenses. Bills were Introduced to regulate tbe practice of drinking providing that there should be no drinking between drinks; to encourage tbe culture of useful dogs, one of the sections of which provided that uo dog abeold eawaM a eat between tbe hour* of or> and seven p. M. ; It alao provided that a eat was not bound to run If chased bj a dog; to renovate the Bu- reau of Labor statistics In which It was provided that the chief of the bureau should partake of every article of food before Issuing a certificate of Us purity; to give additional safeguards to personal liberty, providing that any member of the legislature assaulted In tbe cars should have tbe right to move, the pre- vious q-jesilon; to provide statutes for dlsllngul.hed Massachusetts—Ists, in which it wss suggested that the subjects of the statutes should be some prominent citizen of the Garden of Eden and some resident of Nosh's Ark, as typifying tbe two points In the history of tbe common wealth, popularly designated tbe crea- tion and Hood. Various funny amend- ments were made to tbe bill* as they were read, and a season of much humor-

erjoyroent was passed.

WOT CAH'T HE Do BETTER?— A young man named Frederick Billings, with a fine,open, intelligent countenance. was before tbe police court Saturday, charged with tbe larceny of a lamp, val- ued at about fifty cents. It seemed bsrd to believe that a young man ot his appearance could be guilty of such a charge, bat all doubt on that point was set at re.t when he pleaded guilty. It seemed to bare been his first offence, but Ihe lad was reminded tbat he had occupied a cell in the Lowell police station not long ago, when intoxication rendered bim incapable of liking care of himself. It appear* that on Friday evening officer Harris observed Billings coming down the street from Broadway, carrying the lamp referred to, and watched him enter the pawn shop of Mr. John Glidden. Harris followed him and asked himwb-re he got the lamp; he could not give any explanation, but denied having stolen it. Ho w«* tautMtwio 1 W * 1.—ijoa-wwd pleaded guilty In tbe court to having stolen it. He was fiu«-d in tbe sum of $10 and tbe costs, or to be imprisoned for sixty days at tbe House of Correction Verily tbe wsv of the transgressor is bard. If the boy had only been smart enough to have stolen a thousand dollars, his yonth, his frank open countenance, would have pleaded for him, and be might have been placed upon probation, and allowed a chance to reform.

WABHINU ON SUNDAY.

Peacon Fllnthaddecldtdto move; hid decided to commence moving at precisely 5 o'clock, Monday morning, July 13; and so on (hat Identical Monday morning you might, had yon been an early rleer, have seen the deacon divested or bis Sunday dignity, shaking the beet room carpet In the back yard.

There U no need of saying what he did next, or what Mrs. Flint was doing tben. They went through the tearlng-up process very much as other people do; and not being endowed with an over-abundance of this world's goods, the lust load or fur- niture, coiiftlating ol the descon's wife and baby, the twinn, and the beet room look- Ing-glaap, was on Its way to (he depot at ;> o.elock, P. II.

'HltH.-rtl be nothing!' txcltilmed the tired little woman, ns the deacon helped her out of the wagon. ' If we had been Squire Runtorn'o folk*, Samuel, we shouldn't have been more than a quarter through now, would we? Sly I bow my poor bones would have ached through this time to-morrow night. I'm glad tbe Lord knows whal's best for me,' she ad- ded, taking the baby from the deacon, and looking around for the t*vlns.

It waB but n few hours' r<do to C, and just In the coolest dusk of the July twi- light they walked up the street to their new home, very tired, and thankful they were not Squire Ransom's folks, but juit themselves, If ihey did have to work late that night putting up the kitchen stove and unpacking dishes and bedding.

Tuesday was a dty of many troubles. The babies were tired and fretful; day- light revealed a coating of dirt on doors and windows, the depth of which they knew not before; and the heat was Intense. But Ihedeaconposiesslng untIrlngenergy, and Ills little wife the sunniest of tempers, ihey succeeded so well that, byThursdsy nli>ht. ns he came Into the kitchen with an armful of wood, where his wife was washing dishes, she commenced singing:

1 The deacon iblcki Mi work !■ almoat done, But I feel •« If mine had Jmt begnn.' 1 Did you hear that, Samuel?' sbo said,

laughing and turning around to look at him.

It was prayer-meeting night, and Ihe deacon went to prayer-meeting for the iii'-i time In C, took an active part, and after meeting walled to shake hands with the minuter and some of the brethren, answer their Inquiries and present their letters. He had the sstlsfact ton of feeling, on his way home, that he had made a good Impression; It pleased him; It would have pleased Us; and he told bis little wile that night, In his grave way, that he' hoped, coming as be did In the midst of a f-trange people, t here might never beany occasion ol remark »galnnt him while he remained among them.'

' I'm sure, I hope not, Samuel,' she said, looking innocently up in his fttce, and adding, as she nettled up her little brown head on his shoulder, »I don't feel much alarmed about It.*

The next day, Friday, the dencon wen: back to ttie old home, having some busi- ness settlements to make there. 'Can't tell certainly when I shall be back; prob- ably not ill) Monday noon; gut si (here's enough woodFplltlolsettlll then. Good- by,' ha said, and was gone.

The wee woman went singing batk to her httU-wathedfcdlnuer-dlshet*, and with one foot on the cradle-rocker, she scoured the ktdves, while she told Ihe story of - Jack and Gill ' to Ihe (wins. When Ihe kettle was washed, (he kitchen stove and tnble biushed and flcoured to ttie u-uul i-hadt olblsckand white,the baby asleep In her nest of a cradle—' bless her I'—she washed Ihe prelty twin faces till they btushid like red peppers, and then set- tled liiem in their trundle-bed (or a nap

Dear little woman! she did look so tired ns she come out from the bedroom, mid stopped to brush a lly from under the muskeeto-net over ihe baby; it would have made your back ache to 1o: k at her. Rut the cheery heart In the weary body as- serted Itself, and she smiled with (lie thought of all she would do btfore the deacon came back.

' 1 must slick my h ilr over a littld so If any one should come I wouldn't spoil the dencon's rrputatlon,' she Bald to herself, going up to a little glass that hung be- tween Ihe kitchen windows. Just then a gem of a sunbeam (lashed In at Ihe win- dow, and seemed to tangle Itself all up In her wavy brown hair, ' Oh, how pretty,' -!.!■ said, with a bluih and a laugh like a child's, 'Guess II somebody had been a( home I'd had a kisi, then!' and off ahe Hew to her woik.

How like magic the while curtains went up and tbe cobwebs came down; how the beat room looking glass shone after its polishing, and the old daguerreotype of " Samuel In his best daya " never ahone through IO clean a surface as It did lhat day. So the time flew, bringing the dea eon's return nearer.

One morning she awakened early, en- tirely free from a wretched headache she had the day before,' t want all done; the kitchen cleaned up and my dress changed before Samuel cumes at noon.' Quietly dressing so aa not to awaken the children, she slipped out Into the kitchen, built a flro and commenced operations. How ahe did work! every step told of some- thing done, and at hall-pattlO, despite all her hindrances from baby, who was cross, she was hanging out the clothes, io inowy white tbey dazzled her eyea as the sun shone on them. One end of tbe clothes- line ran nearly out to Ihe front fence through the side yard, and the whitest, nicest clothes were hung there of course. 'How many penplo are passing,' she thought to herself, 'and how tbey all stare at me; guess It must bo the clothes though, initead of me,' and ahe tenderly pinned the rear of one of the deacon's shirts to (lie line. Haik! wai lhat Ihe front gate? Before the had time to turn around, the deacon'i energetic stride! had brought 1dm close to her; but what was the matter?

' Martha — rendition — Flint!' he ex- claimed, ' what In the world are you doing?' Come straight Into tbe home I'

With a look that defies description, the little body straightened Itself up aa high as It would go, as ahe said, 'Not unill you speak to mo different from that, Sam- uel, and tell me why,' her lip quivering.

' Don't you see the people all going to meeting, and you a hanging out shirts? It'd Sunday morn'ng!' Such a laugh as rang out then on the Sunday air, I'm sure the good people never heard before. ' Oh, Samuel,' she aald, holding her aides,' It's io funny ! no wonder the folks stared "at me and my clothes. Oh, oh, oh 1' and she sank down on (he grass In a convulsion of laughter.

The poor deacon was scandalized. ' Martha I' he said, In auch a sadly anx- ious tone she only laughed the more, and It was not (III she looked up In his face that she realized how he was touched; then she stocd up soberly and walked in- to the house. i'be door close if' behind them, she went up to him with a little caress, and said, 'Samuel kiss and for- g.ve me, and I'll go to woik and ravel It out. I truly will,' and she laughed again with the thought of what she had been guilty of, till the deacon kiised her and laughed too. In spite of himself. Then he walked to the window and looked out

• You're not going Io let Ihem clothes hang out there ail day, are jau, Mattha Flint?'

' Of course I am; you don't suppose, now I've got them out, God's going to grudge me the sunshine to dry tbcm with, because it's Sunday, do you? Why It would be wicked to bring them In before sundown. But see here, Mr. Deacon, it's about time I calltd jou to account, I think. How came you to be traveling to-day? Guess there's a little Sunday- breaking on bcth sides Isn't there?'

The deacon turned slowly around, and Bat down. 'J'hvn perching hcrselt on bis knee, she took his honest brown face In her bands, and snld,' Be I good, boy, now, and tell me all the truth; remember George Washington, dear.' The deacon MIL 11 nl. Just a trace of trouble In his smile, and taking the hands (hat held him cup live in his own, said,' Well little woman, 1 had everything up last night, ready to. ■tart for home on ihe ."> o'clock train. Somehow I must have been aaooinuofl tired, or else It was the heat, leastways I dropped asleep In the depot, and missed the! ruin. Then 1 (bought I'd take (bet) o'clock and get home at midnight, so you wouldn't be lonesome Sunday, but we broke down, and just got here half an hour ago. Tben to think, after walking through town from the cars, aud folks a locking at me on their way to church!'

1 To think, Stmuel,' «hw broke in, ' af ter that dreadful tilal, )ou should walk In at jour front gate m,d tlnd your wife hanging out clothes In your fron' yard, and you a deacon of good standing In the church I dear! dcai! w hat do you suppose the Lotd will do to me for thinking It was waRhlng-day? I don't think,' she uddtd, 1 he'll be very hard with me, because yes- terday was my Sunday, though I had such a slek headache, It seems I didn't know much about the day. I'll tell you what, Samuel, I'll stay at home with the babies tonight, and you can go to meet- ing, and then piece out your Sunday to- morrow; won't that doF'

But tiie deacon couldn't get over It; hie heait was heavy ; and while his wife, was busy In the kitchen he put on his hat, and with his hands clasped reverently be- hind him, (his Sunday way) slowly and solemnly ho walked out to the clothes- lines. Most of ihe clothes were dry, for tbe sun was very hot, and one by one he dropped the snowy thing* into the basket, unconsciously bumming to hlmsef,' Have pity, Lord I O Lord forgive '

Mrs. Fdnt WAS washing dishes, and nearly dropped her best glass dish, when (he deacon walked In with [h« clean clothea. ' I could not stand it, Martha,' ho said In explanation.

' Guess t muBt sprinkle and iron them, to-day, Si'imi'l,—would you?' ate said archly.

The deacon merely ejaculated a disap- proving 'My dear!' and went Into the other room to read his Sunday paper.

By and by the people began to come from church. What a Bitdden suprlsed In- to tat they Bccmcd to have taken In his household premises: they gazed, and stared, and looked back, and gazed again, but the deacon wai a hutublti man, It did not flatter him; he read his puper and sighed, opened his Bible to read, and sighed again, and then fell to thinking. A little while after two arms stole softly around his neck, and a dear voice said, 'I',)!get all about It, dear, and 1*11—' a knock at the door interrupted, and she went to open It,

She had brushed her brown, wavy hair, and dressed In a coo] white muslin dress, with far between dottlngs ol pink, and looked not a bit like the guilty little washer-woman she was. She opened the door, and Deacon Frost and Elder Cum- mins Introduced themselves and walked In with stately bows. Deacon Flint rose from his open Bible, and more Introduc- tions followed, whereupon Elder Cum- mins cleared his (hroat, ar.d In a piping voice, said: —

' You uiii-i excuse, Deaon Flint, our coming on such a day, but we thought It belt that some explanations should be made before our people again gather for evening service!'

'Oh I know what you mean, I guess.El- der (■iininilng.you want to know why I kept yesterday for Sunday, Instead of to-day, don't you? Well, the fact wai, the deacon was away, and I made a discount of the daya somehow, and I was go busy setlle- lug, and BO yesterday was my Sunday, though I was in bed all day wltb a sick headach.', and io didn't dud out my mis- take at all. Then wasn't It funny? 1 got up at 0 this morning, and went to wash- ing, thinking It fas Monday, and I'd get all through before the deacon came home; I declare I've laughed so about It that I fairly anhe.' and the liule feminine offen- der laughed again, and ao contagiously that the three la ughtd with her.

' I've been so good, though, elder, the rest of tbe day, I'm mre the Lord has for- given me for It,' aud she smiled so sweet- ly, they both were completely won. When they rose to go Deacon Frost said to Deacon Flint, ' It Is our missionary meeting, to-night, brother, and a little explanation from you there will net (he matter right, I guest.'

=9= WHOLE NO. 864.

I'p spoke the feminine again. ' Oi. yea, Deacon Frost, Sam-iel wai Intending to explain, to-night. I only wish I coul.l be there' but I can't leave the babies.'

If you have no objection!, Mrg. Flint,' replied the deacon,' my Susie will come and stay with them, and let you go, she would be so delighted.'

Oh, thank yon, that would be to nice, you are very kind 1' and she bowed them outof the door.

' Ain't you glad yon married me, Sam- uel, Initead of Abigail Howe?1 aald the small woman, smiling up to him. No matter what the deacon said and did.

As she was letting the tea-table, that night tbe broke Into another merry laugh.

' What's the matter now, dear?' aald Ihe deacon,

'O, Samuel, I was thinking how you must have looked, coming up the atreet with your Sunday walk, your hands clasped solemnly behind you, till you got to the gate and saw me hanging up your shirt in the front yard, then how sudden- ly you broke Into your week day stride! Ha! ha!' and they laughed together till the (ears came.

Supper over, dishes washed, b-tby asleep, Susie telling stories to the twins, the deacon and his wife started for church. Don't be too humble, Stmuel,' she whis-

pered at the door,' woik In a little spice, If you can, and I'll tread on your corns when It's time to itop.'

The meeting wasopened as usual; then Brother Dean was called upon for are- port from India.

A little wiry, black eyed man ruie and said, "Brethren, It's not much uae re porting Irom heathen countries, when right In our midst deacons travel on Sun- day, and deacons' wives waBh and hang out clothes before our very eyes as we walk to the house of God! I call for an explanation.

Deacon Flint tried to tlte, but some- body pulled him down, and the next min- ute the whole congregitlon was electri- fied by the sound of a sweet, womanly voice, sajlng—' Now, O Lord, stabllsh thy word unto thy servant, at) shall I have wherewith to answer him that reproach- elh me, (or I truit In thy word.' Then turning to Mm, she snld, ' Hy brother, you shall have an explanation,' and In a Blmple, almost child-like way, she told tbe story of her mistake, and the deacon'i delay, then added, 'My brother, judge nothing before tha time until the Lord come. ' For we shall all stand before the Judgment-scat of Christ, and every one shall glvo an account of himself to God; let Dj not, therefore judge one an- other any more!' Your sleep, my brother, will be sweet, to-night. If your heart Is at peace with Ood, ai mine Is, for ' 1 am persuaded i hat neither life nor death, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor bight, nor depth, hor any other creature shall be able Io separate me from the love of God which le In Ubrlet Jesus our Lord.''

The next morning Hev. Henry Brown and hi-, wife called very unceremoniously on ihe new deacon. ' We knew It wouldn't be washing-day here,' laughed Mre. Brown, ' so we came here early. 1 could hardly wait to get here to talk over that funny affair. Henry said after you sat down, last night, he felt like Inviting yon into the pulpit.'

' Why, bless me!' said the aitonlshed little body, blushing like a girl, ' 1 felt so aihsmcd of myielf after I got under tbe deacon's eoat! 'Twaa the ttrat time I ever spoke l.i my life.'

11 hope It wou't be the last, Mrs. Flint, if you always speak ai much to the pur- pose as you did, last night!' aald tbe min- ister, coming forward.

'Y>»,' broke In his wile, 'Henry said he'd advocate women'a speaking in meet- ing alter (his.*

' It was capital,' said Mr. Brown, re- crosslng the room to where the deacon Itood. ' That's what Joe Dean has need- ed for a lung time, a good reproof, but no one had Ihe courage to give It to him. Your little wife has done just what the whole parish will thank her for.'

' Everybody I've seen Is just enraptured with you,' said his wife to the laughing heroine, who had been rehearsing all the funny passages to her. ' You have made yourself famous; look out hi plenty of calls, this week!'

1 Oh, well,' she said tossing (he baby, 'the wuihlng Is. done, and I shall have plenty of time.'

Mrs. Brown laughed, aud said, 'I think I will send you word next Saturday night* that the next day will be Sunday, and you had better no: wash till Monday.'

' Mrs. Flint,'said the minister, 'I think you are fully competent to manage your own affairs, without any of my wife's In- terference,' and, so, laughing merrily, they atarted.

1 Samuel,' said his bonnle wife, as she reached the door, ' don't you think I've Introduced you pretty well ? Will you ever call me Martha—l'endlelon—Flint again when I am hanging up your ablrt In the front yard?'

Somebody waa chased out In the kitch- en just then, and laughed so loud H wak- entd the baby.—Chicago Advance. »■»■»>♦ _-

Jlit. (IKKKI.KV FoBOETrCL,—Horace (ircclcv has professed to oppose Gen. Grant on the ground that, in bis view, no President should hold the office longer than one term. Such a ground of oppo- sition had not occurred to him, sixteen mouths ago, when bo himself proposed to have Gen. Grant nominated lor second term. January, ft, 1871, at a political meeting in New York city, he delivered a speech in which he praued the administration, and uttered these words: "While aliening the right of every Republican to hit untrammelled choice of a candidate for next Freiident, until a nomination is made, I venture to suggest that Gen. Grant will be far better qualified for that momentous trust in 1872 than he waa in 1868." Men call Mr. Greeley honest, and we don't believe he has ever been a thief. But, Is it honest to talk ai he does now of the "ono term" device, and "forget" that he has ever talked otherwise ? Certainly, there waa a time when he propoied a second term for Freiident Grant, and gave a good reason for do- ing to.—rforcegfer Spy.

FiaiT BAPTIST.

Tbe nans] servlcea were held at this church on Sunday, tbe Rev. Mr. Pidge preaching a airmen In Ihe forenoon from Romans, Till: It "For the spirit itself btarsth wllneaa with on •plrlt that we are ihn children of Ood." Tbe discourse was a fine presentation of the truth or tbe Christian religion, tbe comforting, in- structive and elevating InRuences of tbe Holy Spirit, and tbe value of religion In hours of trial, sickness, and death. In introducing his ■abject, tbe preacher said that Christians were apt to look at religion is something gloomy rather than bright, that is, tbey allowed them- selves Io brood over the tbreatenlngi of God against sin, Instead of looking at the glorious promises to the believer. He believed this to be due to (he fact tbit tbelr conceptions of Qod were not yet sufficiently elevated to enihle tiiem to regard him In tbe light In which be had minlfeited himself. And here lbs preacher presented a very beautiful Idea < f the gradual manifestation by the Defy of himself, to tbe human race, Pint, as omnipresent, all pow- erful, embraced In that mignldeeni Hebrew term "Jehovah." S.'cond, is Ibe Ood of love, is revealed In Ihe incirmllou, and list In the confining, strengthen I ua Influence Of the Holy Spirit, given aa tbe Kit mi cry of his presence wltb men, the last being the crowning step in the revelation of himself to ibe world.

UltivsaiALiaT.

Rev. Mr. Weaver preached from 1st John, Mi "He Is a propitiation for onrslni and not for ours only, bnt for the sins of the whole world." His subject was" Christ the Propi- tiation." He said a Proteilant and a Ca'.hollc clergyman were reported la tbe piper* as rep resenting Cbriit'i death as a " proplilitorv lacrlflce," made to appease G-jd's anger. Thli hid called bfa mind to this theme. Propitia- tory sacrifices were pagin. The hcitben god* were supposed to he ingry with men, and to ■dpeise ibis anger, gift* and »atrIflces were made to them. Tbey were suppjaed to gloit lathe sufferings aod blood of anlmita and men, to be reconciled by them. Tbe Jewa borrowed the notbn of propitiatory sacrlflco* from the pignos. All the old religions and the religious language ol tbo world were framed upon tbe Idia of angry gods and pro- pitiatory •acriflce*.

Cbrlstcame into tho world in tbo midst or such Ideas and the use of such language, and suffered and died, and it was hardly possible, that bis death should be expressed [n other than tbe propitiatory language of the times. He wai obliged to ppt his new wine of relig- ious truth Into tbe old bottle of religions lan- guage rather than the spirit of the new truth. The letter was sacridclil end propltia'ory, tho truth was educational and reformatory. Yet it is inrprlslog that In this age the old loiter wntch kllleth should hold men to a belitf in a propitiatory sacrifice. Three proposltians will set this matter clearly bofore us.

1st. The ii JII which Christ taught men to beliere In, had no anger (o be appeased, lie is love; lie loves men when tbey rebel against him i loves them when Hi punUhea (hem; so loves them thitlls sends His Sin io live and ale for ihem.

2J. Tbo rcfjrm which ChrUl earn* to iffect did not rela'o to Ood, but O min.

Chrid cumo to work a change, to root out •la, to banish error; but Ood is not a sinner that be should be reformed, |j not in error thit He should be Instructed; is not wrong that He should be corrected.

"I. The sins which Christ camo to cure can not be removed hy any propitiatory sacrlflco. These BIDS ire fo men; they aro of u morn! na- ture—the bpse ind fjtie use of a Ireo will and ■n Instructed Intelligence. Propitiatory ta.-ri- flecs made to Ood by a third party, cannot touch man's free soul. lie tnutt be Inatruiled and roused to fsel bis sin, to see Gad's trub, and apply bn gnce before he can l>s led to change his life in J love and obey his Mikcr. Const came to man and for man; died for him; bis propitiation was msde to man, to lObdori lilm and reconcile htm to Uod.

Nothing will do but a pereonil aretptmce of the heavenly remedies of tho go?pol. These

from tin wilb but little knowledge of the theory of how it is done. Sealng, then, that Ood has sent the remedy for our suut maladies, how quick should wo letuaimlylt and be saved.

FHEE l'\ri I-I

In tbe absence of a regular pastor, ihe morn- ing service! were conducted by Hev. C. U. Dun- nlng, City Missionary, The discourse wiis se- lected Irom the *th chapter of Pro vet lu -J3d verse: "Keep Iby heart with diligence. Tor out or It are the |i sues of life." The speaker'* re marks were decidedly practical, and presented to the nudi.'ncj in ■ moil forcfhlc minncr. The soul of m.n w» represented is embody- ing three greit faculties: tbe Intellect, the heart and Ihe will. Tho intellect was tbe pow- er of reason and knowledge; the heart present- ed tbe sense of feeling, of love, end of sensi- bilities; tbe will, the power of appljing tbe In- tellect ind Judgment, and the love of tho heart toachrlstian life. Ot then faculties the speak- er dwelt upon Ibo power cf tbe heart ns the seat of all vital ilr, From tbe heart omlcatcd all or life's idiom. As Ibo lander feelings ol the heart were nurtured, so was tho course of man's life shaped. Too frcquei'tly was the in- tellect the only olject of care. How often did It occur that young men were sent forth to OB* tain a collegiate education w.th an shnndsnee of facilities for Iba completion of their studies, and yet with their effects tbo fond parent had neglected to place a llible. Man'* Intellect was eubiervlent to tbe heart's lenslhllities, hence Ibe necessity of an early tnorit training. If tho heart wu wrong, tbe intellect would certainly be led astray. Teach one's heurt to love tbe Bible, the Cbntch and the Sunday Scln.nl, and bii Intellect would aid to tho advancement of a glorious otijact. Tbo Ir.telltct was simply tbe door lo the heart. Man's thoughts must lend In eltber of two directions: to eeiflah and vi- clous actions and moiives, or to hill and no- ble aimi. Tbe speaker alluded lo the flashy litersture so extensively circulated in our city, ■nd isserttd thit il wis Impossible lo read such matter and keep the mind pure. Tho lover* of the New Yoik Ledger, and such papors, could not love the Biule. It waa impossible to keep the heart right and attend circuses and thea- ters. The speaker thought a love fur vatu amusement! was ono of the greafcit hindrance! to those who should become Chriiiians.

In ibe afternoon an lutcrebtlng session wsa held with tbe Little Wanderers, in charge of Kev. Mr. Tolet.

An Intensely Interesting service wu held it this church hy Rev. Mr. Tolesand his L'ttle Wanderere Trom ibe Home in Boston. Tho reverend gcntlcmsn gave in entertaining ac- count of tbe management of this Institution, of tho targe amount of good that was being ac- complished, and gave minv interesting inci- dents connected with lha work of love. One of the most giitiljing features of tbo Home was the results obtained In Raving tbeao liniu children from vice and crime, end causing them to attain to positions of u>cfulnen, not only to themselves, hut to the community at large. Numerous cases were cited where such httle walff bad risen to high positions. Homo were preachers of the goipel, some sought verlcai priif.-s.'ijm, and msny became prominent and wealthy citizens. The eemres were msdo more entertaining by excellent singing hy the little people from tbe Home, of whom them were seven boya and flvo gltts. Douhtlcss the inclemency of the weaihor deterred mnny from attending services, and the pecuniary raarftl riu'd cot have been as satisfactory us tailed.

Un- frultfulnesi il peculiarly hstt f.il to Uod. In bis condemnation of the fruitless fig tree, Christ inches lhat nothing bis ■ right to a place In his kingdom which docs not bear trait to tbe advancement of his kingdom. I. Why men

ELIOT C'JKUUKOATIONAI..

Text Pa. rxxxix. I—S- "O Lord, thou hail searched mi?," &e. Subjett: the tnmV uses of tho doctrine of tbe divine omniscience. Ai'ir a Tull analysis of the Pialm, tbe speaker went on to say that this perfect, interior knowledge ii foreign to us. Our entire, human life II based upon tho fact that wo ire, lo a great ex- tent, ignorant of each other. Tbe mind Is hid- den with tbe boriy, through which It givee out onlyhlntaof what It knows and feels- Tho will helps tbls concealment. We talk of know- ing each other, but such knowledge Is very it.i peif;ct. None of us wear windows In our brcasti, and hut ono ot a thousand or onr thought! finds utterance. This seclusion of tho mind is necessary In the early atsga of our ex- lltonee. It nourishes individuality, and forms (ho basis of self-bond. This helng our natural ronditlon it la difneait (o realize the fact or tbo d.vine omniscience of n«. When reallawd. It mayjleld two results: I. Aaemeof awe and kulcmnity. The •poakar then dwelt Upon the Impossibility of the tinners escaping this knowledge liy chance of plica, by fiijjht of Hm", or by intermission of its exercises. II. It y Ii-lJa iiixi a sense of comfort to all wc'l meaning minds, int. Uecemo sunb knowledge IK complete. Most of ui would riiher he knnwn thoroughly than rattlelly, since ihen hotb sides of conduct are weighed,—the palliation and struggle and repentance, ■■ well m tbo exter- nal act. 31. K aosuree us of the irmpuhy of Ood. Tftu degree of sympilby wo can com- mand is the meataro of our baapiHSf. But how lUtls can we gtt from otheti.

The ru'-juit of the dlicoutio WAH " A Time and plir-j for everything." Ttie preacher began hy sutlng that In ill tho worm 11 Old there Wat order. That order was munifoitcd In tbo plinciry »ys- 1 iii- It was seen in lha rciruUr and unvary- ing revolution of tho glulto we Inhabit, around liio fun, and In tho rtgnlarlty of tho aeaions; in tho physical ami menial lormatlon of mm- hind, in all living creatures Irom tho t-melkst nn'nialculo to tho hlgbei'. archangel. First bo argued that tbe exlaience or intelligent belnga has n specific purpose: To glority*Oad; fear- ina him nd keeping Ills com mend men!'.. 2d. The duties involved ara numerous, but tbey •II centre in this one Idea. Everything pro- poiing Itself a% Idftt* mutt feminine bare; but Ifcsy spread everywhere. To Nctnmpitih ibe whole duty of ni'in two things are necessary. 1st, the hnowlldgeof Godrau<t be rc-eived; Sad, 1*. mn*t he Imparted, The dm rtrptlres Intelligence, tho mcoO'l cxettinn and action.

A lime for action, a lima for preparation, a time for conversation,

and a time lor the conversion of others, and a time to die. In conclusion be urged that what- ever must he dope should be done in time, or it will probably net be done at all. If done out of fta lime It violatei Ibe law of or- der, which la the flrit law of heaven.

R:v. T. Oatbarry, assltted by Rev. J. p. Oil- more as deacon, Rev. T. Field as iuh-doicon. Tho music on (hi* occaiion was excellent, Miii C. Walsh preifdiog at Ihe organ wi.h grand effect. Min Rosa D'Rrlnasnng at tbe offertory Ihe "Alt Maria," and at another part of Ibe man, "Panii Angelical," Tbe beautiful voice cf the distinguished Irish lady re-echoing through the grand church, won the admiration of all present. After Ibe gospel the Rev- Wra. Harnett preached the sermon on tbe eplatle of tbe feait: Acta II: 1, II. Subject: The de- ■cent of the Holy Ghost on Ihe •poetics. Con- trast b< tween the old law and the new, that was one of fear, tbb, one of lova- In the old law, as well as In the natural law, the coming of the Holy Spirit was felt as lha sound or whispering of a gentle wind, but In the new law ha Is given as a "mighty wind, which fills the house," because be is given In great abundance for all the works, ministries, and stitei in the church. Reference wai made chiefly to the change wrought in Ihe apostle*, and by ihem In tbe entire world, through the power commu- nicated to them by the Holy Ghost. Owing to tbla power, the voice of tho anrient philoso- pher Is lilent now, while tbe voice of I'eicr, tbo flchcrman of Oilllee, fi heard In the person ol Ilia successor, even to (he extremities of the earth. Conclusion: The Ho'y Ghost will nol enter into a malicious sou1, nor dwell In a body sulject to sins,

MEMORIAL DAY.

Arrangements for the observance of

Hi; ■ t!»y of tender tnil patriotic metuorlea

are progressing; satisfactorily, ami the

services will be sure, as heretofore, to

awaken the sympathies and enlist the warm co-operation of all our people.

Circulars have been sent to the various churches, whose alel haa been so pencr-

ously given In Ihe years gone, asking Tor contributions of flowers ami willing

Angers on the morning o: the services, to ale) In their preparation. Special contribu-

tions, Intended lor particular graves,

should bo carefully marked, and will be

taken In charge by Dr. Geo. W. Sargent,

Surgeon of Post 39. The general programme, already pub-

lished, has been changed, so as to have the exerclfes near the cemeteries, as

heretotore. Instead of upon the Common, at before arranged, the services at the

cemetery will consist or prayer, singing,

and an atlJresa by ex-Major Frank Da-

vis, Commander of the Post. It Is prob- able that the mllla wilt be closed during

the latter part of the afternoon, and Ihe cxerclics will be delayed In order to al-

low all our people to participate, the line

of march by the Post being taki promptly at 3 1-2 o'clock. It Is hoped

the flag* in tbe city will be generally dis- played, and business suspended In the

afternoon.

named Joint Manser— i.ot a Man, sir, but a boy as we have eald. Col. Phi)brick

charged him with creating a disturbance

on the Common, but no warrant was Is- sued against him; ho was brought Into

court simply to receive a lecture from bit

Honor. When the other case* had been

disposed of his Honor looked severely

the young pi-ace disturbar, and then

icteded to tdueate his young mind to a proper understanding of the enormity

of the t ffence he had been guilty of. Ills

Honor began by a description ol the

Common, Hie beautllul tiees, the green

grass, tho pond with Its thouuudi ol gold and fcllvcr fishes, the sbady walks,

and was so clorinent aud poetical in his

remarks thai everybody *TM delighted,

and melt order was maintained that we

might easily have heard the unfolding of

a latVd cambric handkerchief. Then his Honor proceeded to show that this

Common waa set apart for people who

wlKhcd to enjoy a quiet it roll, and it such persons H8 John Manser were allowed to

create disturbances and annoy rer-pec-

Ublet people, the object for which tho

Common was designed would bo defeat- ed. Having received a reprimand and a

warning against committing such of- fenoealn fdtnre, the boy wai allowed to

depart, and he departed.

The programme of the grand jabllee

concert to be given next Monday even-

ing, by our Choral Union, is such as to insure one of tbe best entertainments of

the year. The Society will be augmented by those of Andover and Mtthuen. and

all being In excellent training bV tbelr

Jubilee practice, will Insure the grandest of chornses, and a most enjoyable even- ing. The.object Is one In which every

parent Is Interested, and with tlie splen- did treat offered, should crowd the bouse.

Theft or Money a-wd Speedy Arreat.

Wednesday morning Mr. Albert Morrison of Wlndham left home for ihe purpose of attend- ing a funeral, Mr- John McKeony, who bad been in his servlca as a laborer for nearly a year, being left In charge of the farm. On re- tnrolnr, at noon, Mr. Morrison found MtKen- ny bad left, first having pillaged a burean and taken from one of the drawer! J100 in monev, deposited therein; Mr. Morrison having learned that McKenny took the train for ibla city, came directly here, and informed Stale Con- stable B:al of hia loss; he then took tbe 3.40 train for Boston, to searrb lor tbe thief.

Col. Beal thinking McKenny might walk from this city to some neighboring depot, rode over towards Andover, and on the road he dlscov. ered a pedestrian answering to the description ol tbe thief, though clad in ai entire new auii or clotbea. So well satisfied was the Colonel, that be took tbe fallow Into coitJ-ls, drove to the Andover station, where, when the train for Button came along, the prisoner was at once rccogn isd by Mr. Morrison

McKenny had purchased in this city a new suit,—coat vest, pants, and boots, a vallsa. In which his old clothes had been placed, and a revolver with IJW cartridges, and waa on bis

Sr JOUR'S DecoaAiioK FIND Coscaar— Tbe concert In Sanaders Hall, in aid of 8 . John's Cburch Decoration Fund, on Friday evening ls«t, was unusually excellent. As pre- viously announced, some of those Included In the original programme eiii not appear, bat their places were tupplled with excellent talent. The concert began with the "March or the men of Harlecb," which wss (riven by the boy cbolr of St. John's Cbnrch; It was well rendered, and being of a stirring character, was well received by tbe audience. This was followed by a duett, "On Mossy Banks," by Mr. Abercromble, and Mrs. BODloa Weft, a soprano of tine ability, and Justly celebrated for her musical accom- plishments. Full Justice was done the piece, and the audience eahitiied much approval at ihe manner In which it was rendered- Mrs. E. II. Sawyer, who possesses a remarkably rich contralto voice, sang aa aria, "Non Fu S jsjno," with much acceptance. Mr. Boothman, long and popularly known in thla city as a Hole player, gave an excellent solo, with variations on that instrument. Mrs. UonHon West again appeared and sang "The Messsac," which was jsteorew. Mr. John Edwards, well known for the possession of a remarkably rich and powerful voice, saig "The King and the Mil' ler," la an excellent manner, lie was followed br Mrs. West aa 1 Mrs. Siwycr In e duett, "I Know a Bank," which elicited an encore. Tbts condoled Ibe Brit part of tbe programme The second part, in which all the above ap- peared, with ibe addition of Mr. Howard M DJW, in a piano solo, wa> given in inch a man- ner a* t J create a large degree of enthusiasm in the anlience, repetitions or new songs being fre fluently called f jr. "Mv aln Fireside," by Mrs_ Wast, was rapturouily applauded, and she was enrortd, npan which she sang "Miry of Ar- cyle." The boy choristers received a heart/, encore OB tho second patt, and appeared a sec- ond lime. Mr. A'-ercromhie received a double. mtnrt. and the audience war; hardly willing lo forgive tbe deception whi;b occasioned tbe re- moval of hi* i:Iove from tbe piano, having an- ticipated anoiber song. Mr. Dow was also re- called, tut on account of Indisposition cculd n a appear. Altogether Ihe concert waa anc of the moat neeaasfisl wc bave littered to, and Judging from the sin of tbe audience, man have added substantially to tbe fund in the aid of which it was given.

We claims ours BEST for the following

reasons, wlilcb wo nl:inil roatlj to PROVF.

to all who will give til a call —

First—They arc not HI complicated

that they require, a mechanic to keep

them in order, as they have 20 less parts

than the simplest machine in the mar

kct, therufuru 30 le;n times liable to get

out of order,

8ccond—They are the Btillent running,

having the silent Teed.

Third—They have the largest sales of

any Family Mnchints in the world.

Fourth—They are the hiyhe.it speeded.

Parties advertising other machines as

higher speeded, make a falsa statement

Filth—They will do a larger range of

work than any otner machine

Sixth—They will do heavier work than

any other Family Machine.

Seventh—Tln-y have the lioul stitch

and tension.

Eighth — They have the glass foot,

with which the natural eye can see to

guldo the work, being much easier than

with a steel one.

Ninth—Thoy i\o not oil their work.

Tenth—They do not have holes to

thread in their shuttles, as all other \.OQY.

Stitch Machines do.

Eleventh—They will uao I.IXF.N and

all kind* of thread* and silks.

Our Gooltory Column.

We observe that our eotemporaries. with scarcely an exception, supply their readers with cookery; ail periodical) are alike ID this respect. They may ap- peal to the head or tin heart, but they attack them through the stomaeb, In order not to be out ol the fashion, wc offer our reader- a few perfectly original re el pea:

Htswsi>cnxatiii re —Tafco a quart ot iii -'mi>. If thi grooar objecrs 10 your taking them, you had better pay lor them to prevent litigation ; burrow a stew pan If you haven't got one; if you havo got one, don't lend It; put fie chestnuts Into It, and stew them; accounts can be cooked lo the same way, a la fiiianctere

To MIXCK BciF.—Half a pound of oyster shell s, two ounces of slate pencil, a pound of Isinglass, half a gallon of mock turtle soup, candled psel to taste; put tbeui all In the fry Ing pan. and place !■ In the oven with a <i tick fire; as soon aslt begins to b>ll turn It out.spreadlt on the pasteboard, go over It gently with a rolling pin, and cut it Into fqiiares; or, another way : put the above named in- gredients Into the copper, lull of cold water; light the tlie, and throw Into It ballapoiind of best gunpowder; Ibis will save a good deal of trouble In serv- ing up.

lteusT HAHK—Take a nice clean gridiron; rub It gently with garlle; pour Into It a pint of clear cold water, and put It on Ihe fire to simmer; nex*. catch your hare, and get i. shaved at the nearest barber's; this is easier than plucking it; as soon as the gridiron boils, hire a sook, with^a goad character from her !*»■ place; tell her to roas: the hare,and get out of the kitchen as quickly as you can.

To ROAST POTATOES.— Tako several potatoes, peel them, wash them, and put clean collars on them. Then with a hard pencil write on them "murphies," "taturs," and such other opprobrious epithets as occur to you; then throw them away.

SOUP FOR INVALIDS—To a pint of warm water add three tahle-spoonfuls of cod-liver oil. shako them until they nro thoroughly incorporated; takes a clove or garlic that has been steeped Tor some twenty-lour hours in senna ten, and shretl It into the liquid. Season with rhubarb and magnesia. Some add force-meat halls of thu same size, and of the same materials, ns anti-bilious pills. Brown with a salamander, and servo up.

WELSH KAIIBIT.—Skin it and truss it, or, if you can get it, trust from tlio near- est poulterer's; open the head nntl take out tho brains, which chop up with a leek, nnd replace; boil it gently in a Diite'h oven, nnd serve on toast.

To MAKE TEA.—Take two or three good birch brooms, mince them before a brisk lire, get up early next morning, and go into the next hoti9o while tho servant is sleeping the carpet, collar the ten leaves, and go, brush them over wlih a weak solution of Boot. For green tea substitute verdigris for tho soot. Mix well, ami then brew with milk and sugar to taste.

Keeping a Pout-Office.

From ihe earliest period of recollection I've had n desire to keep a post-cilice, or have tbc P. O, keep me; I didn't care a continental which. For years I have tolled for the "poslsh " of P. M . and last week I succeeded. Ilut note 1 write after my name, ex-P. M.

I'll tell you bu'.v It came about. The postmaster here resigned, and, with the aid of a graveyard recommendation, 1 succeeded him. It's nobody's business if I did rob thu tombstones for names for my petition; and I can't see why the rela- tives of the Ussfunct chaps won't quit throwlnj; it up tc a fellow.

Well I wrote P. M. after my name Mrs. I.ipmock embraced me with Ihe ten derness ol a she-hear when I rushed Intt the room wavlnj' my pelltion over m-

head, aud my appointment bt ought sundry oilier hugs. I WHS a happy man.

Mrs. I.. and I sat up till midnight writ- ing my name with P. M. sftsr It. Oh, It looked grandly. I wouldn't have swap ped it for PrCS.,LL.r».. or A. B. The next day I entered upon the discharges of my dalles, and yesterday Uncle Samuel discharged me.

Immediately upon bis successor (which was me) being qualilkd. the ex P. M. left, and I wan left alone. The mail came, ar.d I distributed It thus wlee. My motto lias always been 'First come Ilrst Served,' and I acted upon It to the best of my know! edge. I gave a letter to each caller as long as Ihej lasted, aud then 1 ciMtimcn cetl on the pnpers.

Wife said that tbc thing would act like a charm. I'nder the old reifimie some p*0| le never got A letter, while now tb< Hist porscn In the e fllce, after the dUtn button of the mall, would got Ihe biggest fitttestletter that came.

The idea was original, and I pride my- self on its If. v< nt!■ -ii. TlicLIpmnck brain was ever fertile.

The morning following -'mall day" I left my bouse for the poi-t office—the at- tainment of longohcrished ambition. As I turned a corner I discovered two well- known c It liens about to lest ihe virtue in clenched hands.

•' I never note a letter lo your wife, vociferated die.

'• You lie!" jelled the! olhrr; "your letter yesterday wan banded i« me. My wire Is In Birmingham, and wrote a sweet letter to you, Mpmuck's noble motto ol "First come ft ret served," played In my hands "—and a moment later at It thty went.

I hurried on. I had ytitt cr.tcnd the P. n when

woman rushed lido the building. " Von villain '." she yelled, knocking my

hat to ihe Hour, und burying her eager talons In my hair ' Von gave my letter to Mag Fitstongue, the biggest old slan- derer In town. And she'd telling every Where Itiat I've been writing to a married* man."

Well, I now can't boast of us much hair as I con! I n week ago.

Scarcely had my persecutor left wbena Crowd rushed into ihe office. The meth- odlst preacher beaded it. I think he swore as he i-rn-nl the threshold.

"Villain!" he yelled, ''yougave Bird I.yer one of my letters, and he's blowing everywhere that I've got a wife In New York and another In Maine."

"Kill him! kill him!" yelled those be hind him.

I saw a di ,■■ 11 ii t- and clubs Hearing me, and I retreated.

111 l.ui; the scoundrel!" cried th women, and I If and Ibat the command would be executed.

I went through the window, and now I'm In another town.

I'm an ex-P. M. now, and a chap whose motto ain't "First comi:, lirst served" stands at the goal of 111 y late ambition.

My brief P. M. ship lias not been un- productive of; 1 11.; ■■. That M K. preach - er has left Ida charge, and a New Votk woman Is hunting him. Twenty tdjr, di- vorces stare our next eouit In the face, and through my bilel otllcial career,"nine men walk on crutches, and lour women have spoiled facea.

And I? Why, my cranium is hairless, and 1 dare not go back to Skulltown on pain of death.

My ambition Is satiated now, and I havedlschartrtd that motto: •' First come, first served." It don't work In a post- office

I wouldn't be a P, M. asaln for all the benzine In the world.

balance the past account, which made up a pretty sum total of sugared speech- es and half uttered deHaratlona, by cred- iting than all to friendship. There was an air of Indifference about him which she greatlv mistrusted; but she would not allow him to slip through her Angers so easily. Publicity of private affairs was the bugbear of the Greaterex soul; had she not received enough fragrant notes and letters from Birt to answer her purpose? Not that she would de- scend to the vulgar necessity of a breach of promise, but where was the harm ot making him understand that he was com- promised?

'I have I ten reading Madame Kevljrne'e correspondence,' said she; 'and It strikes me that you resemble each other In pos- sessing the tecret of flue letter-wrlilng,

hen roost people run Into twaddle.' 'I don't know how to bear myself tin

der such a buiden of praise; 1 feel lhat it Is imdeservul-'

'In order to convince you of Its truth, perhaps [ hud better allow you to rcpe- ruse a low specimens that I have from one Mr. Berthold Greaterex. Seel hero they are;' unlocking a cabinet and show- ing a goodly parcel tied with ribbon.

'Did I write you all those?' said Bert, aghast. 'Let me see them?'

'What are they?' asked Caroline, wllh- drawing her alttntton from the styles for an Instant. Oh! love-lettersr'

'Love letters?' repealed Maria. 'I don't know.—Were they, Mr. Greaterex?' aside.

'1 don't rrmctnber,' said Bert. 'I.H me read them, and I'll decide.'

'I don't dare trust you. People have a way of burning up their old letters II they can lay hinds upon them. Now per- haps I'm silly and Bentltnenlal, but mine are worth something Id me. By-ihe-way, Mr. Greaterex. did you evor go into court when there was a bi each-of promise case on? Jerome took us In once, when they were reading the love-letters, and It was so tunny I Evtry body was convulsed. They were very nice letters tool'

Bert turned a little pale. He vaguely remembered lhat at different periods he had bi lit v d himself seriously ' smitten ' with Marla'a chnrins, and had. no doubt, urltieii In aatralii becoming a lover, but how atdenlly or how explicitly he could not recall. He knew that there bad been a breach-of-promlse case away back In the trxperiencc of one of his ancestors; and though tbe cafe had not goue against him, j et he had never folly recovered the lone ol his sensibilities, nhlch hid re- ceived such a shock.

'Where have you been,B,ert ?' asld Caro- line; 'the carriage has been waiting this hall hour.'

'I curried some apples to the widow Small's,' answered the guilty Bert. Mother sent them.'

'Oh, did you? Has she any children?' 'There were half a dozen or more play-

Int: about (he premises,' answered Bert, smiling.

'Poor folks always have such a lot. Does she have to take care of them lier- Bt'llf'

'That seemed to be her occupation.' 'It roust be disagreeable to be old and

poor too; to lose your color, and see your ej es retreating Into your head, your skin growing yellow and wrinkled, and your hair getting gray. Is she an awful old (right, Bert?'

'You had better go and see lor your- self.' laughed her brother, 'your tasto la so different from mine. That new panler, Tor Instance, whlcli you wore yesterday, and ihought so stylish, Is Blroply hideous to me.'

"Oil no; I hate the ncigborhood of pov- erty and trouble; iqualor gives roe a qualm. No; I will send her some ot my old gowns—without pniilers—If you think she'd like them, but don't a>k roe to go ami nee her."

And ili< ii they drove round and ctlled on the Uplou girl'', and Caroline lost sight of the ponr widow and her large family In discussing the new polonaise and the latest style of chignons. But Bert miide amends fur his sister's short- comings; all the time that he chatted with Mini i Upton, holding her scarlet yarns and saying gallant nothings, he was comparing her with the widow Small, and lludlng fliiivsln hpr beauty and demeanor; only yesterday he had thought Maila Upton the prettiest girl In tin' win Id, with whom \l would nut be d.ill. nil to get madly in love, tni jusi now She seemed lull of affectations.

•\\ li„i is on you* mind?'she asked, sud- denly, 'Excuse roe, but you dou't up- pear quite like y ouraelf.'

'Nor you either,' he might have replied. So much the better, perhaps,' he said In-

stead. 'All iw me to judge about lhat. Come, bat good have you done since yester-

day?' 'Good? Oh yes; I carried a basket of

summer sweetings to the widow Small. Isn't that good?'

'ttweetings are good; she's quite an antiquity, this widow. Isn't she?'

'Don't ask me; a lady's ago Is a sacred subject.'

'How consideratel poea she wear a false front piece and glasses?'

•Is that au Index of sgcf I know a hesp of folks whom I never supposed aged who wear false Ironta, If It meana that they smile when they would rather frown, and say "I am glad to see you you" when ihey wish you In Ihe Red Sea.'

■Oh, how provoking t-ou are, Mr. Great- erex! But perhaps you will tell roe If this widow Small needs asslstauce—If she would like to go Into the Old Ladles Home which our society la about to es- tablish?'

'How benevolent minded you arc, Miss Maria 1' Bert laughed. 'I almost wish myself an old lady to be provided for by tour charily; but 1 don't believe that Mrs Small would lake kindly to U.'

And then tlic talk wandered Into other channels. Yesterday their flirtation had been In danger of falling Into a more lender strain) to-day the widow Small preserved tbe equilibrium. But Miss Upton had no mind to give up ground once gained. She fancied that be wished to withdraw from the half conclusions

| of the days before—that he desired to

' Will you give me any ihlog In return of tqual value? Will you give me the nosegay hi yropr button^hole?'

' It Is beginning to fade. Mo, Miss Up- ton.'

' Crme Into the garden, and I will give you a fresh one.*

1 Thanks.' He lollowcd Into Ihe garden, where she

made a selection, and throwing; Mrs. Small's gift aside, put her own in Its place Wheu ahe finished he picked up the faded flower and pressed It Into his pocket-book.

' Oh,' said Maria,' a aeuvenlr ot some —' The words broke ofl In her throat. ' Who gave it to you?'abruptly.

1 The widow Small,' said Bert, smiling- ' Ctirue you are teasing me. You shan't

see a single letter; and they are ever so Interesting!'

1 How could lluy he otherwise whi you were their subject?'

And then Caroline called to them that she was going heme, and the conference ended

So It happened that Bert temporized with l hut dreadful hint or his letters being read In court for the diversion of the towns-folk hanging over his head. Had he beeu quite certaJn, of their contents he might hayo defied them | but be was aware that a young man In tbe first enthrall ment of laucy allows his enthusiasm to run away with his prudence. But all thla did not pi event him from going dally to Mrs. Small's f>>r his bouquet, which by- the-way 1m sometimes carried to Maria Upton, a sacrifice lo NemesUj and these dally calls at Ihe cottage In Lovers' Lane became like dally bread to the hungry. He lived for them, counted the houra till It was time to set forth, prolonged them till the hostess was fain to spread her llt- tl*teft>labli and 'invite her guest todrli.k

r In.in china and lo taste ambrosia made. Sometimes when the nlghla warm they took lea In the little ar-

bor, with roseB nodding In at the arch- way, and honeysuckles climbing the lat- tice, and mignonette spicing the dewy air; and there the moon would find them, listening tothe aleepy notes of thrushes In the hedge, or talking; ol the dim de- licious future as If It wore some enchant- ed lard toward which they were Journey- ing together.

One evening, as she bade him good- night on her door-step, be felt her band tremble In his.

' What Is ii':' he asked. ' Did you gee a ghost among the plum-trees?'

'Something startled me. I saw—I thought f saw a face among the shrub- bery.'

> Whose facef 'Oh, perhaps I was mistaken. It was

a afaadow projected Irom my fanoy, may- be.'

' You are getting nervous, little one. You must not live here alone.'

And the next evening, when Mr. Great- erex loitered to the cottage, he found she had followed hla advice; the doors of the house were closed, and placards ' To Let were In the windows. Tbe widow Hmall had vanished like the genius In a fairy story. Mr. Berthnld Greaterex was be- itdaj himself, and ready to brave any thing In Maria Upton's power. Mfhat did a breach ol promise signify In comparison with losing hU love? Let those laugh who win.

Somebody had seen a person answer- lag to tbe description of Mrs. Small take the noou tralo for New York that day- Bert followed without more delay, walst- ed a week In banging about the city be- fore he betook himself to the house of his friend Mrs. Aberneib, In the suburbs. One afternoon, aa he was turning over some engravings In the parlor wttb Kate Abernetb, little Charlie burst Into tbe room In tears, gobbing out that.

1 Miss Van Orme's gone and dead her- self—In the school-room I Charlie didn't do It I Charlie only said, 'Mr. Qreaterex Is courting sister Kate In the parlor, Miss Van Orme;' and Mary aald, ' Hush, you silly boy;' and Charlie was mad, and told that ma said so herself, and threw tbe primer at Mary; ana then Miss Van Orme looked all white like and ghat her eyes, and won't talk; ami Mary said, 'Now you've done It, Charlie!' Did Charlie?1

Oii. you horrid boy!' erled Kate Ab- eint th. ' You are alwaya In mischief. I suppose Miss Van Orme has fainted. Go and tell mamma.'

' Who is Miss Van Orme?' asked Bert. 'Only tbe nutSery governess. We do

have such a bother with them. One has a temper, another has headaches, and now, when we thought we had got a ]e-- el, here she Is fainting 1'

' I think we ought to try and revive her,' said Bert, taking Charlie's band, while Kate led the way. But when they had reached the school-room Mlaa Van Orme had recovered her senses, and was sitting In an arm-chair, while Mary vigorously fanned her pallid face.

1 For mercy's sake, what made you faint, Miss Van Orme?' cried Kate. ' You almost threw Charlie Into convulsions.'

Miss Van Orme stood up ai.d looked beyond Miss Aberncth to Mr. Greattrex, standing In tbe doorway, who came for- ward to her relief Instantly.

.' You must not stand,' he said, leading her back to her seat. ' I think I have found a friend of mine '—turning to Kate. ' Why did you run away from your frlenda?' he questioned, relieving Mary of the fan.

'I ran away from my enemies, if you please.'

'Do y ou call me one?' ■Perhaps we had better withdraw,' aald

rrtmr Kate, tossing her head lo conceal hi r chagrin. 'Come ohlldreo 1'

■Tbat.k you,' Bert answered her; 'I should like a few minutes alone with Miss Van Orme If you please.'

'Oh, j t« had better go back to Mhs Kate In the drawing-room,'said Ml is Van OIIDC, vihen the door had closed upon lb-in; 'It will be a shame to disappoint Mis. Abermtli; anil lodoed, loan get ou very well without ycu, sir.*

'But I c-.ui't get along without you.' 'And yet you know nothing at all about

me?' 'I am satlrfled with my knowledge; I

know that you are charming, and that I love you.'

'You love a woman sailing under an alias? I am neither Mrs. Small nor Miss YsnOrme.'

'I don't care a fig who you are; I will mvry you to inufnm, u ,U1, Juncm*. under whatever name you chooie.'

'Generosity Is catching; I will tell you my story.'

'1 will not listen to It except from the lips of Mrs. Berthold Greaterex.'

'Please yourself ' 'Thank you; then I will come for you

to-morrow, and we will be married In church.' But when he returned to the drawing-room and told his story to Mrs. Aberneth, she Instated that the wedding should take place at her house.

Everybody was taken aback at Greater- ex when Berthold wrote that he should bring his bride home the following week. 'You may have seen her,' be wrote, 'when shu was Mrs. Small, and lived In the cottage In Lovers' Lsne. You re* member, perhaps, that you onoo sent her some summer sweetings; I owe my hap- piness to those precious apples. Caro- line will remember the ocoaslon, because she offered to psrt with some of her ward- robe to the paor widow.'

'Oh! obi' cried Caroline, 'he has mar- ried the widow Small and all her chil- dren: How could he? She's old enough to be his grandmother. Oh, dear! dearl dear I I shall never want to see another summer sweeting as long as 1 live I wish you would order Spades to cut down the tree, mamma. No wonder an apple brought trouble into the world, and shut folks out of Paradise! It keeps Its repu- tation up finely I To think that the heir nf Greaterex should marry a hideous old widow 1'

Guess her surprise when ii'itln.hl opened the oarrlage door, and there de- soended a little person, who threw aside her veil, and disclosed a dazzling skin of rose and Illy hues, eyes like summer brooks, brown and liquid, hair a ilpple of sunbeams—the sembiance of an angel in flesh and blood 1

Where—are—the—ihe children?' cried Caroline.

'Yes,' laughed Berthold, 'and where are the wrinkles, and tbe gray hairs, and the sunken eyes? Is she an awful old fright, Carrier

'Summer sweetings are not so sour al- ter all, mamma.' aald Caroline, later, i guess Spades may spare the tree.'

The next wet k Berthold overtook Ma- ria Upton In bla walk.

'I sar Mrs. Greaterex In church,'said ■he.

'Did you see an antiquity with a false front piece?'

Vow don't be disagreeable; how con hi I know? By-tbe-way, I have some news to tell you; I am engaged.'

Allow ma to congratulate your lover. I suppose you mean to entertain htm with those precious old letters of mine?'

Your letters? I haven't tbe ghost of one left; I curled my hair on them long ago; It H'IIH only the empty envelopes with which I teased you. But tell me about Mrs Greaterex i I hear It Is like a story.'

'Yes; perhaps you have heard of the Pnnlhomme heiress? I remember when the affair was much talked of, and think- ing it sad enough. You see, Pauline was the last of her family — she, and a cousin who Inherited ID case of her death. The common report waa lhat her loneliness and sorrow worked upon her mind till she was proaounctd Insape, aud carried to an asylum; and the cousin, being guar- dian and next heir, was left In Irresponsi- ble charge of the fortune, which waa very large.'

'Yes, I know It,' aha answered, glibly; 'the Prudhommeg lived In great magnifi- cence while they did live.'

'Well, Mrs. Greaterex was Pauline Prudhomme. It appears she was no more craay than you are; but having re- fused to many her cousin, and be, fear-

lag that she might maJ wilt tbe fortune away represented her at physicians to serve patched her to the asj made her escape, and tbe name ol Mrs. Si port herself by bar oi Ingthe title of Mrs. protection than that respectability.

'Luclen Thornton!' riled Miss Upton, turning deadly pale, mid supporting her- self on the arm o< Mr. Greaterex. 'I thank you There .:m be bat one Luclen Thornton.

Many a fond mother's heart, far away In quiet, country homes, is yearning anx- iously over her absent son, or weeping In sorrow over his Impending ruin; for surely a young man Is in great danger when separated from the gentle, loving attentions of fond sisters, tbo Instructions and restraining Influence of a fond fsther, and tbe wise counsels and pure example of a good mother.

Awsy from homo and friends, alone among strangers, longing for sympathy, struggling day after day for bread, sur- rounded on all sides by evil lafluencss, with no safe social attractions, no win- ning voice of friendship to warn off the dangers ihat beaet his path at every step, proud, sensitive, smbltloui,—has he not a large claim on tbe sympathies of wom- an?

Do not coldly say, -'Ob, he Is a strang- •rl he la nothing to me!" Vice, with her alluring ohariqg, beckons him to her haunts; pleasure, with ber seductive face tempts him on every side. Tben stretch forth a kindly hand and help him along Invite him to your happy, pleasant homes; cxerelse your social talents; spend your time and attention, and USA your purest Influence to elevate him.

Do not greet him with s severe good- ness, cold reserve, frigid piety, solemn fsoes, or harsh pharlsaical words, for by these meana you will only drive blm Into the very path from which you would save. Be cheerful, kind and social; ex- ert those blessed home Influences that warm and touch tbe heart, while they ennoble and restrain.

Mother*, wives and sisters, you know not the good you may do; put lorth your most earnest efforts, and may be, In after years, you will see these same homeless strangers whom you befriended glorying lu all the strength of i high, pure and true manhood, kept from falling Into temptation by your kindly sympathy and Interest, and your purifying Influence.

Would not this be a sweet and blessed result? MART I. HERRON.

FISST BAITIST Tu.' morain* discourse, by the pastor, It.v.

Mr. Pldge, was rounded on tho l«t verse of tbe 1-1 chapter tt the Sd Bplatle to the Corlntbiaas: 'The Father or mercies."

In the Bible, alone, do we nod a view of God meeting the necessities ofournaluresi in na- inro we see only (be trail of Jehovib'a gar- ments, beautiful though It appear*; bat la the Bible Qod'a face appears. Tbe Hebrew saw only God** power, bis wisdom aad his glory;

it the skrlntn" ■«--»» V*- *-**-«v yearning for as. God, It was anciently

shown, was net In tbe whirlwind, the earth- qaske or the Are, but tbe still, small voice. Mercy Is Ihe crowning attribute or God; no other view meets the demands of our humanity. To preach a gospel without Cbrlit Is like of- fering to a man perishing from thirst, a beauti- ful, rich aad costly goblet, but empty, asking him to drink, ai If tbe massive vessel wonld answer In place or the water be craved. Tbe text speaks of God as tbe Father of mercies; It alto suggests something la man. The slolese

igels Blag ever or the holy God; thry know nothing of bis mercy t bat the isiats, throngh iternlty, shall add the glad song or bia mercy. Bio make* mercy a necessity; we ask not Jus- tice from Gcd, bat mercy. And most tally Is God's mercy shown in his repeated forgiveness of oar aloe; It I, bard lor us ta forgive a friend, bat while we are continually sinning against God, he enfolds ns in thearmiof his mercy and receives ns sgaln. Bui tliii mercy la only for tbose who accept; the beacon on a dangerous coast Is valueless UDlets the pilot heeds It* light; OoA bss done nil, and it only remains for as to accept through Christ. Beyond tbe tomb is no hope; after death the Judgment; bat God's mercy Is ample if wa will bu*. accept It.

Fens BAPTIST, Bav. N- L. It-iwell of Mancheiter, supplied

the dohk In the morning;, taking the text of his discourse from Exodus xxxil. 201 "Wbo is ou the Lord's slda V Tbl* question was asked by Moies of the children of Itr>el, aHir his abieoce trpm them, and durlog which tlaie Ibry had forgotten tbelr past deliverance, and many blessings bestowed by God. Upon Moses' re- tarn be found tbe people bowing down and worshipping the golden call, and standing within tba gales he aiked,"Who Is on tbe Lord's aide}" The present time could be com- pered to tbe time referred to. Two kingdoms were now arrayed against each other, and lbs people mnst e*poo«e one of ibem. They matt either follow God, or woik In the Interests of evil spirits; there was no neutral ground. A third party might exist in politics, lint not so with religion. Christ mast be fully accepted or absolutely rrjec.ed, and he who, bv taking a pasilve policy, smillogly approving of religion, but not endorsing auch approval with earneat erToris In Its bcbalf, could.iu t be esieemed one of God's cbosen people. The acceptance of Christ did not of tea emanate from Impulsive feeling, or from tbe cooler |udgment of the in- tellect alone, but was irom the depth of the heart, and from lovo to Christ ibe heart was thoroughly rcnewid. Tbe speaker noticed ev-

■tueiivaa «i !><.■•>■ uu me i/mi a »iuv, ma, uiau- llonlng persecution. The Christian bad been an object of bitter persecution elnce the estab- lishment of his religion. Numerous Incidents were givgo. Tbe speaker considered a severe persecution a good certificate of Christianity. Another evidence was Christian activity. God required solid work from his followers, and not mere professions. Whatever talent a man has should be eerneitly devoted to God's cause. Tbe discourse was closed by an earneit appeal to Christians to greater interest ID proving Ihemselve* on tbe Lord's ilde.

In tbe afternoon Mr. Davis of Andover sup- plied Ihe desk.

At Ibe regular morning service la this place s sermoo was preached by J. B. Cro>siey, from the words four,d in 1 Kings xvlil: 21. "Aad Elijah came unto all the people and said, How long bait ye between two opinions r If the Lord be God, follow him : but If Baal, then fol- low him."

The trial—"The (1x1 that an- swereth by (Ire, let blm bo God." The vain reperltlons of tbe prophets of Ba.1, the success- ful prayer or Elijah, "Hear me, O Lord, hear me, that tbe people may know that tbou art tbe Lord God," The Ore dcaoended, the sac- rifice consumed, the cry of tho pnople as they fell on their faces, "The Lord be Is God."

Because tbe followers of Baalcoold be count- ed by tbe thousand, and Elijah alone remained a prophet of tho Lord.lt did not follow that Baal waa God. Truth and right doss not al- ways go with tbe majority. Wrong ways of- ten outnumber ihe right, hut there will come a time wben the Lord will prove blm elf to be Gad, and Ibe right aball prevail, however strong ibo wrong may tie In number^.

UaireagSLiST. Rev. Mr- Weaver preached from tbe Sod

chapter of Mark, tha 27 th verse. " The Sab- bath was made for man, aad not man for the Sabbath." ^^

The Pharisees thought that the Sabbath was of more Importance than man; bat Christ could not carry oat hla work breaking their rales, aad therefore tangbt the Importance of man above tbalr Idea of the Sabbath. Wbat Is tbe proper use of tbe Sabbath? Christ held as firmly to the observance of tbe Sabbath aa Ibe Pharisee*, but differed as to the ate to be made of It. By whem was the Sabbath made? Christ meant for m to andersteud that God made It for man's ass, and whatever respect we may have fir Chritt should tinge our re- gard for tbe Sabbath.

One of Ihe most Important questions of our time Is ibe tight use of ibe Sabbath. There li a variety ot opinions on Ibis question- Few woald rote. If tbey hsd the opportunity, to ab- rogate tbe Sabbath, bat on tbe use to be nude of It there would be a variety of opinion. New England Is, undoubtedly, tbo spot where tbe Sabbath la most properly observed. Ii hat been prosrerous, and that prosperity la due largely to tbe use made of the Sabbath. It baa been strict, but go to other lections and that strictness will be appreciated. New England bas not risen by copying from toreiga customs, bat by studying fundamental principles and carrying out tbose principles. We must not

other nations for light; tbey are la dark- aesa.

The Sabbath la not merely a day or rest; reat alone is a worldly matter; there i* noth- ing Christian about it. Bat wbea the eplrlt Is lifted up by moral and Christian rt Auction Iben it Is truly a day or res'.. Tbe Sabbath Is violated wben used to make up ttie loia of the

GaACa BriaooFAL. The Rector, Rev. Dr. Packard, preached from

St- John 8: S. "Verily, vsnly I isy anto ibee, except a SBJSJ be born of water and of the Spirit, be cannot enter the kingdom of Gud"

Tbe interview of the Siviour with Ntcode- mus bas many points of Intereit The Ian that be was a Ruler or the Jnw», one of the S uihi ilrim or great council of tbe Natoa di -- tlnifolibed him from ■ lhat >■<-. m ■ follow- ers of tbe Lord Je<ns Hi* coming to Je>ui by night w«s snoiherdlatingulsblng feature with as. Neither the Saviour nor the KvangelUt attribute to blm Improper motive* for that com Ing and why should we r It ui«ln have been, that he wet engaged in ibo duila* ot hie office daring ihe day, or that be wl»bed to aee tbe «»..i-— naaacj — -"M-a^a fcy «■» awowrt that usually surrounded him, and whea he could more freely converse with tbl* great Teeeher of tratb, or he miabt have felt that tbe Influence be might be called to ase in the Sanhedrim woald be or greater weight, if It were not known by bis associates, that be favorably re- garded tbe claims and teachings of Jesni.

But tbe most interesting and Impoitint Ita- ture of the Interview la the character of tbe In- structions which the Saviour gavo to this man of rank and power. At once and without any preparation tbe Saviour laid before Ibe mlod of Ibis inquirer aftei truth Ihe two greet fun- damental and distinctive doctrines of the plan of Silvatlou. 1st, the agency of tbe Holy Ghoet In Imparting and Urea gib cuing spiritual life, and lbs lifting op or tbe crucifixion or the Son of Man, aa lbs means of salvation to every eon and daughter of Adam's. Upon tbe former, the preacher dwelt particularly-upon wbat waa meant by being born of water and being bcrn or the Spirit.

That these three persons a-e really distinct, though but one find who cre- sted, redeemed and sanct fled IS, and that this ono Gud tubsttta In a Trinity it pertons t»*cntlal, equally ancient, uterual, immciiMi mid powerful, la an eduieble mystery of holy faith. Tbe Trinity proved from tbe Old aod New Teatament. At the baptism of oar Hiviour, the heavens ripened and ihe Triidty ii confessed; tbe Father'* volco I* beird exclaim- ing tin" li my beloved Son, and the Holy Ghost is manlfeited by a visible deiceat In the form of a dove.

Lave It, therefore, Hi ■ fountain of Iruilfulneas and source of tbe divine person* and ol tbelr enjoyment. Conclusion. Beg of tbe most buly Trinity, on thl* solemn festlvsl, that God the Father, Son end llolv Gboit may Inspire u* wlib true Christian ten Unseats, that they may Mil cur hearts end Influence our fouls with the fire of divine love, and grant us the gift or Onal perseverance, that after this oar exile is ended, we may Inherit those mansions whera love shall be tbe joy and occupation of the blessed forever.

O'Urien of Tennetieo, Mr. Chamberlain and Wendell Phillips, or tbli stole, cordially endorse hi* po- sition, and gives the following- terse extract Irom a lelter by Mr. Phillip*, wbo write* :—

" Yoa know 1 am neither a Republican nor a (Irani man. Whom I shall vote fir, or whether I shall vote at all, I do not know. But certainly aa against Greeley I am for Grant. We have bad oaa Andy Johnson; 1 wl 1 not ran the ritk of getting another in Horace Greeley. 1 went a man with some decided principle*. Greeley never bid iny. Besides, I consider Greeley a secession candidate. I be - Move tbe plot lo nominate him was batched by Southern white rebels more than a year ago, aod has been mainly nursed by them. I ad- vise any one whn means to vote for blm to Dud ont Dm what agreements have been made by Mr. Greeley'* frltndi with Jiff Davis and hi* italT a* to office- and patronage, I am per- fectly certain that there is a distinct mutual understanding, If not a positive conlraet be- tween tbem. IT Horace Greeley inters the White Houao, JeJT Davi* will bo ai truly part of the administration as Seward wai in Lin- coln'» day. No negro cau vote for Greeley wbo values hi* tire or property, or cares for bis race. If, by a frown of providence, be I* elect- ed, I shall advise every Southern loyalist to load tb* revolver* that Grant's arrest of North Carolina Ku Klux hai allowed to be laid aside. It be la elected, let the negroes live in ►quails of fifty, whom no coward will dare shoot down, and show no properly after sunset. Lonely men will be shot, snd no black will own a mule forty-eight hoars, If any rebel knows tba fact.

A* for Adams, 1 do not fesr him—an aristo- crat by binb and a Democrat from pervcrse- neis—the love of money mikes inch a union possible. He ii a Democrat, bat afraid to con- fess hi* creed, or wear Ui uniform. If any party a.lowa him to hud it, be will lead It to Iti grave, as all the Adamses have always done. Old Joba Adams' vanity, bigotry and bate of Hamilton put tbe federal party Into Its tomb. John Qulocy Adams' ad ministration

HAY TRAIN1NO,

Tiie annual training of the companies compoalng tbe Sixth Maaia.cliua.Uta Reg-

iment was had Wedneaday. All thu com- panies were present excepting those from

Aeion and Groton. Colonel Beal In- spected the companies to-day upon tbe Common, after which they were drilled,

and they acquitted themselves very cred- itably Indeed. In his Inspection Col-

Heat found the arms and accoutrement* In an excellent condition, without excep-

tion. After tin' drill the companies went the City Hall and partook ol aoollav n. The Wnktfleld aud Lawrence

bands were respectively entertained at

isx'a and Crowell's. In the afternoon the regiment paraded for drill, and a large number of spectators were) present

to witness their evolution!. The men ac- quitted themselves well and gave evidence

srelul training. Tbe regiment present- ed a very line appearance, eliciting com-

plimentary continent* from all who were

prIrUt-gtd to see It.

The Fourth Light Battery also turned

out to-d*y In large numbers. Never

has there been a bolter attendance of

ihene artillerymen than there was on

this occasion. They were inspected by

Ctipt. Geo. S. Merrill, after which they

were drilled, proving themselves very

efilcicnt. This afternoon there was a

review of tbe entire command, and the

nppearance of the, Brigade was as much

complimentary to the men as it was to

the city and vicinity. Rov. Mr.Weaver,

Chaplain, Dr. Sargent, the Assistant Sur-

geon, were present, and Quarter-master

Abbott. The officer* of the different corps presumed n very tine nppeanuioe.

Terhaps the remark of a by-stander,

while the ruviow was going on was not

without wisdom. "These May train-

ings," said he, "should be quarterly."

WE HAVE no fear that In this commu- nity, the AUKRICAN or its editor can bo successfully misrepresented, by how- ever frantic an effort, In relation to any personal assault; we have only words of condemnation for tho attempt at forcible rcdroes of individual wrongs; blows aro not arguments, or excusable under even severe provocation. But wo have, at the satuo time, only contempt for the poltroon who, after weoks of the meanest personal attacks, and under, as he vaunts, "only s slnglo blow," bel- lows so loudly fur help, aa to arouse tho neighborhood for two blocks around, bringing in scores from the adjoin- ing street, and whoso ashen cheeks, bloodless lips and quaking form, as ho walked like a shivering ghost for hours thereafter, evidenced to every beholder how absolutely the iron of fear bad taken possession of bis cowardly frame,—and who, with a meanness unequalled, at- tempts to malign and misrepresent an- other, by an effort to fasten npon this paper ami its editor the res[>onsibility of the affair.

Alihoagti ice observance of Memorial Day within onr own city was not attended with as extensive iparada sat) ceremonies as have for- merly marked tbe occasion, vet the hearts Of onr cltir'Qt beat as warmly with love for those noble comrades who were martyrs to their country, and no leel asal and liberality has heen displayed In bringing forward and ar- ranging flowers to be used la tbe beeuilml and sacred ceremony of decorating tbe graves of our suldiera. At an early hour ladles and children began brlnjlng flowers and evergreen to the Grand Army bawd-qaartcra, and soon an tfneient corps was eiraestly engaged In tbe la'; or of love—eni win lug wreaths, forming garlands, boqneu, basket', etc-,—plying their busy fingers till near tbe hoar of assembling of the comrades. lathis coanect'oa perhaps it la appropriate taallado to the deep Interest and generosity or Mr. Warner Daltey, whe so directed hta eflVrt* aa to secure to the Post • large amonnt of flaweia at s very low price and who iiurallj striped every fljWer, bud and green branch from bis private hot boats and garden, and made a free itlf. of the tame to the Pott.

Ma. CflalllMiN, FBLLOW SOLDIEBS. LAOIES AND (JlNTLEKSK:—The horrors of war arc very quickly obliterated by the busy scenes and quiet enjoyments of peace. We remember the great fact that there haa been a war, but the sights and aounda and feelings which made war we very -.inin forget.

In my remarks to you this day it will be my purpose simply to remind you of a few of Ihe expediences with which we were all so familiar during the four dark years of the Kobelliou.

At times, after the army was disbanded, I en- deavored to place myself back again, in imagin- ation, in tho midst of war time. But it waa mi possible. I could not make the old scenes Uve again. War had been on episode ao strange, so unnatural, so contrary to all tormer experimca that in the vacation of peace those y ars did not eccm to belong to my life. 1 ney seemed rather like a vague, dwordcred dream. Now, however* after mcuting one and another of my army com- rades, after rebearaiag the various incidents of our army life, going over our bloody fields, one alter another, calling up our comrades, in sue ccoaion, wbo fell here and there, those years are gradually coiuiog I'Bck and taking their place in my life cxperieucc.

It was eleven years ago that tho war broke upon ua. A vague gloom was everywhere felt. '1 he face of every one who could at all compre- hend the situation wat heavy with anxiety. Men were drumming for recruits The martial spirit was even where. It pervaded even the sports oi the children, liott with drums ia their bands and military caps on their heads were parading the streets. Boon there began to flow from the hills of New Eoghvud, and from the plains and mountains ot the far west, streams of young, vigorous and earnest voluniccts, to join in com- mon struggle upon the great hatUe fields of the bouth. 1»" you remember what total change of life your soldier boys were now entering upon? They left quiet rural homes where every waut bud becu provided for, where life had been pcacctul and regular, They learned what it waa lo lead a wandering, irregular, uncertain life, to live without shelter, and upon coarse food. Many ot them learned what it wtu to sutler hunger even to starvation.

Look about yuu. New England life is to day what ii was eleven years ago. The sounds which are so familiar tu you that you do not notice them are the hum uf busy mills, the peaceful rurublo of vehicles through ibe streets,—the rudi uf the steauicar. Yout aoldicrsevchaugcdihcaesounds fur the hoarse rattle of gun carriages, thcclaiter ol army wagons and tho tramping of troops. You L'O out upon your morning walk. You hear tIn- cheerful notes of birds. the music of bappy domestic voices greets you everywhere.

The soldier in the field becomes familiar with far different sounds. The birds are frightened to silence. He is awakened in ihe morning by tin.- fife and drum. Perhaps he is startled from his alu'i'bers at dead of night by tho long roll. He liccomcs familiar with tho wicked whistle of kre^/A.TiUtfiuMkwr; ar&JLbm.&sy&r Not, however, that thcae arc the only features of a soldier's Life. It has a brighter aide. There is much that it grand and umpiring in army ex- perience. When you hear the sudden crack of a thirty-poundor upon the top uf a mountain re-

Tbe banner and fljg presentation was a most plcaalag feature of the occasion. Fur a f;w weeks several ladies.—Mimes I.. B, Lowe, 8. K Lowe, Abby Davis, Katie Chard, Ueorglo [(.■an, I., F. Ashton. Kile Creasy, Hattie Wa son, and Mrt.

Tne banner Is composed ol fiao silk, sixty by forty Inches, with bluo drapery, trimmed with heavy gold fringe ot flue quali y, and heavy gold tassels. The front Is of wbltu ground, hearing a coal of arms, finely painted. Ua Ibis side are the words " Need ham Pott, Ho. JJ," upon the drapery above tbe eoat ot arms, end noneatb

Tho soldier has hia hours of uulet and leisure. He has hit gomes and his hilanty. His jokes ore without number, lie iudutges also in song singing, and when "John Brown" is started by a soldier, it is caught up by tho company and carried ,oa through the regiment, through the brigade, and on through an entire line, miles in length, and the effect is grand and pathetic. A very noticeable feature of tbo soldier's lile is the effect which the scenes of nature huvo upon him. We look out upon our peaceful hills and our pleasant grecu slopex. \\ c,havc a mild sunlight and a kind »ky above our heads. The effect of viewing these acencs day by day is not less powerful because it eludes onr notice. But it is almost lost upon the eoldicr in the field.

The most beautiful sight I remember to bavo seen in the South wot the bombardment of the city of Vicksburg by night. The abolla with their lighted fuse shot far skyward, poised for a moment, then descended foster and faster until they burst over the unfortunate city. It was a beautiful sight, but it was a beauty beneath which lav ilestructioa aud niiaerr. Womcu were hiding ia caves ia the hill-aides, aud nun and in-n-.ti were dying.

The march of an army it a grand sight, but your picture of an army is never complete unlest you see it in action, rushing on over tho dead and tbe dying.

But if all uaturc ia ominous and threatening to the soldier, there was one spot which wat always green. That spot was in bis memory, and it was the memory of LU home. Every it.- milliar tree whether in Ihe yard, the old otvhard or tho lorcat, every friendly rock, even* scene of boyhood aports, tbe old bouso itself ore ull tinged wllh a halo of beauty to llio soldier, which would never have entered bis dreams un- less he bad plunged himself into the vicititudes of war. Your volunteer never understood ihe strength of home ties until he went to the war

There were hoys weary and worn with hard marching, boys suffering from wounds, burning wilb fever, starving in Kobe I prisons who yet would not go home until the last shot bad been fired, until tho war cloud had been lifted, aud lifted, too, from a country whose honor was impaired by auy coin promise with traitors, v at the same time looked upunthc friendly skies and peaceful homes of the North as upou a par- adise, and to stand once more upou the old licarth-stune would have aecmed to tbcm almost like stepping upon the thrcohold of Heaven.

A peculiar picture of the war cloud waa feeliug of uncertainty which settled down upou the lllc of a soldier. You lie dowu at uight with a sense of security; you rise in the morning with a sense that the day is yours. You expect to live Many years uf activity and of enjoy- ment arc piobalily before you. You go about your tiusincst with peaceful confidence. '" very different with the soldier ID ibe field, night be writct bis letter borne. Ho feels that it may be his last, lluforc tho sun rites be may be called to arui.i, and before the sun shall set his name may bo tent home with the long list, " killed in hat lie." This feeling Is always pree- eat wilb the soldier. It gives a ccrtaiu somb c- i.csa to oil bis pleasures, and lends a pathos to the songs he sings.

Tbe t'ccliugot uncertainty sometimes deepens into wliut really seems liao premonition, lwcll nmember a tall, manly eoldicr who was tbo means of laviug my own life, who ai a certain period of the war, aecmed to lull into despond cucy. He became discouraged. The war fot the Union he feared would not be successful, fjouic ill omen seemed to cast its shadow upon him. At length, while standing bravely in his place iu haiilo.the bullet which he seemed al- iuo-1 to have been expecting, came, and in a few hours be waa luiil in a loldier a pravo.

Army life in uoi a favorable condition for the appreciation uf tbo beauties of nature. For lAts we uccd the rcpoao and calm of peace. The soldier looks at everything through tac medium of iv or. That green slope which would dcligbt his eyes la the nonheru sunlight, is now but i favorable spot for an army to intrench iteclf fot defence. Yonder siretch of woodland, which would be exceedingly beautiful at other times and iu other ciicu instances, is now but a con- venient screen lor a lurkiug enemy. The south- ern sunlight is a icorching blaac, aud the sky ilself seems lo wear a s:crn, steel aspect.

lini vieiseiiuaee of war are exceedingly strange. Every soldier wbo goes to Ibe Held Is an actor In a living '.ragedy, which sometimes exhibits strange features and develops unex- pected retutte. You send your tlripbug to the war. He marcomo back strong limned and unharmed, tho strong and robust may be the first to succumb to ibe beat or tba fever. War, wiib grim Impartiality, strikes down Its victims, ununtnif.il of rank, of valor, or personal gilts. So it boa happened, my tellow toldiers, that In the inexplicable lonanes ol war oar comradee, our tcboolmetes, oar bosom friends have isi- len, and that we are here to- lav tu buaor their memories, end to tcatterour flowers upon tbeir giaves. Ihey are lost; we survive, Uod only

btowa npon oar quiet homes. It snatched Its irom our firesides It lett its vacancies

never cast be oiled. While, tbeo, we j-itn In an effect tone ta remembrance ol our 1*1- ii-ti comrades, we wilt also extend oar warmest sympathies to those whose hoarta ore aiill bleeding tor borne clrclei which bare been rudely broken, and who will carry with Ibem to tbe gravee era shall vitit to-Jay, tbe harden of an Irrecoverable loss.

Bnt there is something more which calls for onr remembrance to-'ay. Wo shall do poor honor to the dead It we forget toe cause for which they died. That flag Is the emblem of onr national honor. It procialma to all toe na- tions of the earth to-day, not only that the honor of onr country la unsullied, bet that a greet victory has been won, that there baa been - triumph over e ssoat powerful and deedly

iiault. The blood el onr fallen comrades bat added a new In sire and authority to that en- sign In every land ami epoa every sea.

I believe tbat evety surviving aoldiere heart is Wonted u> the stare and sinnci more closely than It aver could have been bnt for the peril which boa thraauetkad ft, and but for the coat cf planting It anew, aed holding it np where rebel hands had tore It doera. And I believe, dread- fut at wa know war to be, by experience, that should danger ever again ibreauo our flag, the old aoldiere of tho Union weald be tbe first to fly to Its rescue.

Wo, at least, have earned tbo right to pro- tect and defend In some boar of danger ihe flag which o«r forefather* raised, and staked their lives to uphold, upon their shores.

lint tba memory of the dead shall carry on thought to-day beyond the mere uniiy of oar country. Tne Union has been preserved. Bnt we are not yet wholly free trom danger. We have a duty to par farm as citlions as sacred a* that which wvpetierasedaa soldleraj tbeo let tbe inspiration of this day lead na to everv wi so effort to sweep atray ell corruption and every lurking seed or discorJ, to preterveour national Integrity and parity.

I have bet one more word to say; when we go to the araves of oar fallen solders to-day, let ns uot pass lutes ay with a merely formal M r> vice. Could oar fathers, oar sons, nod oar brotbera speak to-twy they would desire a sin- gle heartfelt rest ten bran'. ■;; far more eagerly, and would regard a sm-l" aspiration alter a bii:her and more dtlrlotlc !lte, tor more fatgbly than all ihe tnpertctol houora which we may render ibem. When bare we lay oar flowers unoa their grave* to-day, let at remember how they died and why tber died.

Tbe "oldest inhabitants" will recollect the ridicule heaped upon those who early emigrated to Ohio.

The following is the conclusion to which tho oommittee arrived:—The title, then, to the whole tree, is In tho proprietor on whoso land is tho trunk. But the proprietor who permits his trco to overshadow or draw nourishment from his neighbor's land, does that neighbor an injury, and per- mits a nuisance, for which there are obvious and easy remedies. It was re- marked by Justloe Croke, ■■i>nr may cut down boughs if they bang over his ground." Tbo court of Connecticut, In the case of Lyman vs. Hale, held the same decision. The suggestion of Judge Croke la also quoted as good law by Mr. Chitty, an Englsh law writer of high authority, "but" he adds, "it should seem that there ought to be a previous request to the neighbor to abate the nuis- ance, before I proceed to abate It my- self,''

How can the parents of children In the public schools of Andover expeet much of the schools when a large por- tion of the scholars are absent every day? Tbe co.nuilitee visited the Phil- lips school Thursday, and lound 30 of the 0:1 pupils absent. In one of ibe Vale scbooU one ihlrd of tbe whole number were absent. In another one eighth were absent. The teacher* say this I* not un- usual. Tho effect of aucb Irregular at- tendance on the usefulness ol the schoo)i Is deplorable.

Second—They are the stillest running,

having the silent feed.

Third—They have the largest tales of

any Family Machines In tho world

Parties advertising other imiehities att

higher speeded, mako a false statement.

work than any otnor machine.

Sixth—They will do heavier work than

any other Family Machine.

Seventh—They have the best stitch

and tension.

Eighth —They bavo tho glass foot,

with which tho natural eye can see to

guide the work, bcring much easier than

Ninth—They do not oil their work.

Tenth—They do not have holes to

thread in their shuttles, as all other Lock

Stitch Machines do.

Eleventh—They will use LINEN and

all Wnds of threads and silks.

Pious SPEOTJLATIOHS —Aproposof Mr. Daniel Daw's contract with Duncan, Sherman, and Co, to deliver to them live millions of dollars of Erie ttock during the year 1872 at ii.",, we have I his anrcdoto of tint' eminent speculator \

Not lung tines he met a Methodist el gyman In Now Jersey, anil having rather a lancy for him, liked him If be wouldn't like to make a little money. The mini Ur replied that he never fpeculaied nor gambled In stocks not believing It to be right; besides lie was only worth some llfteen thousand dollars, and coiltd not afford to perli it. Mr. Drew, after Hume further chat, said he could suggest mute- thing that would be perfectly legitimate, and proposed If the pats in would let up- on his suggestion, to guarantee him against ItMl, while the prospect for a ii Mi'l- ■ profit was quite promising. The arrangement was accordingly made. Some weeks Liter tho divine came over to New York and called at Mr. Drew's office to ascertain the result.

••Well," said Uncle Daniel, "the fact U, that thing I told you about has busted ; but I promised to guarantee you against loss, and I will keep my promise."

Ho, figuring up the amount invested, with simple interest, Mr. Drew IrXntlel over a check, and the pastor congratula- ted himself upon the result.

" B it," sal 1 ha—and here Is where Un- do Daniel's |oke comes In—" but, Mr. Drew, 1 told onj of my elders what you had agreed to do with mr, and he went and buught a little stock."

'Did be?" said Uncle Daniel. " Wny, how sorry I am! I'm afceid he has lost some money."

" Yea," combined the good man, "and he fold another of the trustees, and he. went anil bought some."

■' You don't tell me!" "Yes, Mr. Drew; and the brethren

Results of tbe Drawing? Schools.

The « biblUon in Horticultural Hull, Boston, o** specimens from tho public drawing schools of the state, has attract- ed general attention, evincing thus early, great advance in this art nnco their es- tablishment. The board of examiners, consisting of Messrs. Chas. C. Perkins, Wm. Ware and Waller Smith, apeak highly of the exhibition, which repre- sents the results obtained in the free evening drawing schools held during the past winter In llaverhill. Lawrence, Lowell, Lynn, New Bedford, Newton, Northampton, Springfield, Tnunton, Worcester and Boston. There are no works of the classes in Cambridge, Charlestown, Fall River, Fitchburg, Nu whurjport, Pittsfield and Salem. We understand that no classes have as yet been organized In the other towns included) within the scopeof the statute— Chelsea, Gloucester, Holyoke, North Adams and Somerville. The exhibition consists of about 600 drawings, compris- ing exercises from thu blackboard, of free-hand, geometrieal, mechanical, isometrical and constructional drawing in outline and tinted—drawing in light and shade, and color of lollage, figure«, animal forms, macbino drawing, and ar- chitectural tinting, deigns for buildings, for carpets, etc., natural objecte, geo- metric solids In shadow and color, and many other branches of industrial art study.

The examiners say of the school In tliia city, lhat "Lawrence sends thirteen drawings, chiefly mechanical drawings and proportions. We gave the mark of excellence to one, and an honorable mention to four. Tho school shows evi- dence of good and careful instruction, although within a limited field." Tbo works specially distinguished by marks of approval deserve high praise; the following is the award for our school :—

GREELEY VS. QRBELEY.

The awkward iaconsiatenr-y of Hor- ace Greelcy'd posllioa, reaching after tbe democratic nomination, is made ab- solutely ridiculous by quotations from bis own speeches and writings within a year past. Here are two or three gems of this sort:— "A Democratic national triumph means

a restoration to power of those who de- serted their seats In CongreBS, and their placea under the last Democratic Presi- dent, to plunge tho country into the Red Sea of Secession and Rebellion. Though you paint an inch thick, to tbis com- plexion you must come at last. Tho brain, tbo heart, the soul, of the present Democratic party Is the rebel element at tbe South, with Its Northern allies and sympathizers. It is rebel at tbe core to-day."— Tribune, Feb ,1871.

How much have the democracy changed since then, that Mr. Grceley can carry their SagP Can ho hope to paint them more than "an Inch thick?1

In mi address last Autumn, in Ohio, Mr. Oreeley said :—

"I saw, tbe other day. a suggestion that I wooia ,,r<ii..ttiiy be me oest Demo- cratic candidate lo run against Gen. Grant as President, I thought that tho moBt absurd thing I ever beard or read. If the Democratic party were vailed upon to decide between Grant and my- Hi'll, / };ii'>ir that their regard for what they must call principle, would induce nine-tenths of them to vote against »»ie."

And so they will, Horace. Little more than n year ago, the New York Tribune, referring to the canvass now about to commenco, and the hopes of tho followers o( tho "Lost Cause" in the possible event ot a Democratic success, Baid: "Whatever chastisement may be deserved by our national sins, we must hope that this disgraco and humiliation will bo spared UB." Would the "dis- grace'1 be any less, Horace, because you lend the column?

WnATi.vi-.it MAY nu said in humor concerning Dr. Livingstone, aud the remarkable faculty ho possesses for los- ing himBelf, the fact cannot he denied lhat his Sin- has been consecrated to the nromotiun of knowledge, and therefore any iutclligcDce of him cinnot fail to In- terest our readers. A special dispatch from London to tlia Now York Herald, to tho enterprise of which paper the civ- ilized world Is Indebted for news of Dr. Livingstone, contains tho following: — Our correspondest at Zanxibat writes that Seyd Ben Mujid, one of the princi- pal Arabs oi Ujijl, left that place on the i 'ili uf January last, and arrived at Unyimwcmba on tho iitli of February. He reported to Sheik Hen Nasil), an im- portant personage In Unyemwemba, tnat Stanley had renchod Ujiji fifty days before. He (Mitjid) left by it circuitous route, which he was compelled to take on account of the troubles on tho regular caravan routu. Atthetimo of Stanley's arrival Livingstons WUB not at Ujijl- He had been traveling in thu neighbor! ing country, and wns at Myoraba, twen - ty il.ty.-i march from UJuJi,between Likes Tanganyka and Victoria Nyanza. But at tho time of tho departure of Seyd Ben Majid, Livingstone bad arrived at Ujiji, and he and Stanley Were together, Bheik Ben Nasih sent this news from Unyemwemba, to his brother Abdullah Ben Nasib, at Zanzibar, by his trusty slave, Saado, who lelt Unyemwemba on tbe 8th of February, and reaohed Zanzi- bar on the 2d of April. Abdellab Ben Nasib and tbe slave Saade were both seen by the Herald correspondent at Zanzibar. Some consider It strange that Stanley, If at Ujiji when Seyd Ben Ma- jitl left, did not send letters by him to Unyemwemba. This is fully explained by the circumstance that Seyd Ben Majid did not it.tend to go to Unyem- wemba when he left Ujiji, but atarted with an armed forco to fight against a native chief, named Miaambo, between these places, and only came to Unyem- wemba because his fighting operations brought him near."
