THE DEATH OF THE FAITH FEE DOG JACK. BT BEV. OLIVER D. D. X am seated In my study, Brain is thick sod thought is muddy, Every nerve is on the rack; Fain would I write glib snd gladly. But we all are feeling badly, We aro mourning sore and sad'y, Mourning over faithful Jack. Jack is dead ! the good old fellow, tirisalcd,’ ted and white and yellow. Foe to foes and friend to friends; True, he had a trick of snooping, Nosing round, and sometimes swooping Djwu among the hens, then stooping, Crouching meek to make amends* It was Bundsy he wss taken. All day long he looked forsaken. Scarcely uttering a round; Vet all night we heard him barking. Though it seemed not worth remarking. Possibly some dog wae ltrking— Larking sly or prowling round. But the dog was sick and dying. We next mornlug found him lying, Breathing quick and heavily; Home said he was mad and shunned him. Home that one had struck and stunned him. But there lay the dog and sunned him— Sunned him, but fit agony. When I spoke be seemed to know me, Looked and tried so hard to show me That he recognized me still, That I could not help but pity, Yet I knew, in all the city. Not a person, wise or witty, Couid assist With drug or pill. Quivered he as aspen quivers, Or as boy half-frozen shivers, With the sleet full In his face; Ho was poisoned, none could doubt it, None who saw him writhe would seout it, But I did not want to flout It, For what man could be so base! But the dog was growing weaker, With a piteous, kinder, meeker Look which cannot be forgot; Yet, as now he fast was failing, And as hope was unavailing, Though it caused a secret quailing, f, reluctant, had him ihot. Bo he died, and consequently— For we could not keep him—gently He was burled with regret; Lone and sad the coachman wheeled him, For unwheeled no man could wield him, And where waving oak trees shield him There was buried Jack, the pet. Do you wonder we are lonely? W here he kenneled now is only Silence, undisturbed and deep; He was always glad to greet us. Always waiting round to meet is. And, when racing, sure to beat us— Beat us and ahead would ke p. But no more will Jack attend is, Watchfully no more defend u *, Day and' night irom tramp and thief; Lone Is now the barn and st- ble— Always there when he was able, Feasted from his master’s t 'o— He is gone and we in griel. Farewoll Jack, who us attended. Farewell now, thy days are ended, Now with all the world at peace; There no pest will e’er infest thee, . There no foe will e’er molest thee, There in peaceful slumber rest thee, Till eternal ages cease!

DOUBTFUL ACQUAINTANCES.

“It is very remarkable,” said my uncle, as Mr. Gregory left the room. “It is very mysterious,” said Lily, with strong emphasis on the adverb. “Tome,” observed an elderly lady boarder, “it appears to be something worse than mysterious; and, without making any assertions, I would at least caution you, my dear, against any closer intimacy with one who seems so often to be possessed of information in a manner of which there is no conceivable natural explanation.” “It reminds me most,” said the Rev. Mr. Briggs, “of cortain cases, undoubtedly well authenticated, in which the existence of the so-called * second sight ’ has been demonstrated in a very singular manner.” “And,” added my uncle, “although many of the professors of Spiritualism have been proved impostors, it by no means follows that all ” “ Yes, yes,” broke in our lady friend, “ but we all know that people once had dealings with familiar spirits, and I never could find any proof that this kind of thing has ever ceased, and therefore, as I said before, I very strongly caution you " “ Hush !” cried several voices. “ Here lie comes.” My uncle, my Cousin Lily and I were staying at a bortrding-house at the seaside, and among a somewhat numerous company was a certain Mr. Gregory. We liad made liis acquaintance on the night of our arrival in a rather comical manner. He was passing our room just as Lily was calling to me in a tone of wot'ul despair that she had broken the key in the lock and could not get out. Through the key-hole he had volunteered his services as an amateur lock-picker, and released us from our imprisonment. ThL introduction had served quite as well as a much more formal one would have doue to inaugurate what promised to be a pleasant seaside acquaintance. Nmv on first sight he certainly present- <'< very little appearance of being a suspicious or dangerous character. He was a young man of some 25 years of age, with a bright, frank expression and a gleam of mischief in his eyes. He was exceedingly intelligent and well informed, and, though rather retiring in the mixed company of our establishment, could, we discovered, sing well, read well and talk well. Without intruding himself upon us, he had made himself very agreeable to us two girls ; and we had surmised that ne was a young professional man suffering from over-work, who had come down to recruit his health. But we are often warned against judging from appearances, and he had during the past few days manifested a very remarkable power of clairvoyance or second sight, or whatever else you like to call it, which had created a great sensation among us. On the previous day, for instance, my uncle had met a gentleman at the' station and had brought him home to dinner. We saw them walking slowly up the garden together in conversation, and Lilv had exclaimed : “ Who on earth is this ?” Mr. Gregory looked and said ? “ His name is Smith, and he is returning to town by the midnight train. ” “ You know him ?” “Never saw him in my life before,” was the answer.

Sure enough his name proved to be Smith, and he returned to' town that night after a long private interview with my uncle ; nor had he, lie told us in answer to our inquiries, ever seen or heard of Mr. Gregory before. On Saturday morning, also, the Rev. Mr. Briggs, taking a walk on the beach, meditating on his Sunday text, had encountered Mr. Gregory, who volunteered information as to the said text, %ith chapter and verse all correct, to the petrifaction of the reverend gentleman. On another occasion, when our elderly lady friend mentioned that she had been out making a small purchase, Mr. Gregory informed us sotto voce that a bottle of liairwash constituted the purchase in question. Thi < communication was very unfortunately overheard. Its correctness was not at the time definitely established, but it was shortly after this that she first propounded her own particular theory on the subject, which she put forward with renewed confidence in the conversation given above, after a fresh display of the unholy phenomenon as she called it. This was the occasion thereof. Mr. Briggs had been seen, coming up the walk in great glee with a parcel imder his arm. “What has he got’there?” said some one. “ All the works of Josephus for tenpence,” replied Mr. Gregory. Immediately afterward Mr. Briggs entered the room and said to the company : “ What do you think I have just bought?” to which the general response was : “ All Josephus for tenpence.” it turned out that he had just ferreted it out from a second-hand bookstall. When questioned about his mysterious powers, Mr. Gregory, always became very serious, and gave go information,

but changed the subject as soon as possible. In consequence of all this, interest, ourioeity, uneasiness, and even alarm, were in varying degrees excited in the breasts of the several members of out company. Most of the ladies declared that they were daily expecting something serious to happen. That those expectations were not altogether unfulfilled will now be made plain. There were two new arrivals on the day on which our story opens. Our company had hitherto been pleasant and select, bnt the lady and gentleman whe now came among ns, and who were named Mr. and Bus. Grice, were executions to this. Showily dressed, and loud in their conversation, they made great efforts to mix with ease in our company, and for some inscrutable reason seemed to make special endeavors to become intimate with our own party; Mr. Grice attacking my uncle, and lus wife devoting herself to ns. We were at no pains to conceal our aversion to their ill-mannered and offensive intrusion, but they seemed determined to accept no rebuff. Lily said that we had met here the most pleasant and the most unpleasant persons whom we had ever seen in our travels. The former class, I presume, mainly embraced Blr. Gregory. Ever since Mr. Smith's visit on the previous day, my uncle had seemed to be unusually worried and anxious. Something had happened at the office, it appeared, which caused him very great uneasiness, and he kept a constant watch for the post Lily and I were troubled about it, but were hardly prepared for his sudden announcement at lunch next day, upon receiving a letter from town, that we must pack up at once and return by the first morning train.

We had no objection to escape from the Grices, but, in spite of Mr. Gregory’s ill-repute for his mysterious arts, we were very sorry to leave liiin, to say nothing of the abrupt and unexpected termination of our holiday. The Grices were sitting next to us when my uncle made this announcement, and I saw a peculiar took of signilicauce pass between them. Blr. Gregory was sitting at the other end of a long dining-table, and quite out of ear-shot, but he came up immediately after we rose from the table, and said: “A very sad thing, this sudden departure of yours! ” “Mr. Gregory,” I replied, “yon are perhaps aware that you are under grave suspicions of being in league with the powers of darkness, and this is another proof. How could you possibly know?” “ Oli, ill news travels fast,” he said, laughing. “But it is a very hot afternoon, what do you say to a little reading ? ” Lily here squeezed my arm vigorously, but I answered, “I fear my uncle will not let us go out of his sight. He feels it his duty to keep special guard over us while we are in such dangerous company.” “ Never mind,” he said, “I will read to him as well. ” We were now in the corner of the drawing-room, near a window looking out on to a covered balcony which overlooked the garden. Bly uncle came up and returned Blr. Gregory’s courteous greeting in a manner which was, I fear, not very gracious.

‘ ‘ Blay I trouble you for the paper after you, sir ? ” he said. “Certainly,” was the answer. “But may we not enjoy it all together? With your permission I will read aloud to the company.” Bly uncle looked considerably astonished at this unusual proposal. Lily looked up with open eyes and curious expression, this being not exactly the kind of reading she had intended. But the offer was seriously made and repeated, and my uncle, who dearly liked being read to, gave a dubious consent. Bliss Lily, with filial affection, made him particularly comfortable in an armchair, and Blr. Gregory commenced reading a long, prosy article on French polities. He read with anything but his usual spirit, and in a soft, low, monotonous voice. The oonsequence was—as had possibly been not wholly unforeseen —that my uncle was soon enjoying his accustomed afternoon siesta. The reading, having become gradually slower and softer, now ceased, and the reader, looking up, suggested by a slight gesture an adjournment to the garden. Lily and I tried to smother our laughter and look shocked, but we adopted the suggestion. A book of poetry was quickly produced, and I found that there is a difference between hearing French politics read in a stuffy drawingroom to a middle-aged gentleman, and hearing “ Enoch Arden ” read in a cool, shady alcove, to a pretty, dark-eyed, lovable maiden, with tender bosom heaving in sympathy with poor Enoch’s sorrows, especially when the reader is a handsome young bachelor, with an ex-quisitely-modulated voice, able to do full justice to the harmonious numbers ol the Laureate. At the end of half an hour I was startled by an exclamation from Lily. Looking up, I saw in the garden below, sitting on a seat under the trees wirii their faces toward us, our dear friends, Mr. and Blrs. Grice.

The gentleman was keeping up, apparently, a desultory conversation with his wife. They waved their hands on catching our eye, and beckoned to us to come and join them, which we did not do. Mr. Gregory, instead of going on with his reading, continued to regard them intently, and asked us whether we knew them. We said, “No.” “But they seem to know you,” he said. We explained how they had favored us with their attentions. To our disappointment, he could not be induced to go on with his reading, but he continued to stare at the couple before him ; and when at last they strolled off in different directions,' he said that he must apologize for having an engagement, and he left us abruptly. “A strange young man, indeed ! ” we thought, and we were still more surprised when in about an hour he returned, and asked my uncle to be allowed a short private conversation with him. My uncle seemed startled at this request (and so, by the way, did Lily) but after a short pause he led the way into an adjoining apartment.

The conversation which ensued, as we subsequently learned, was as follows : “I am about, sir ? ” said Mr. Gregory, “ to refer to your private affairs to an extent which 11011 surprise you, but 1 hope to be able to render you a service which will be an ample excuse for my intrusion. You are. I believe, returning to town tomorrow ? ” “ Yes.” “The cause of your return is, I believe, connected with the forgery of a certain check in your name. ” “Sir, how.can you possibly know that ?” “ That check was brought to you for your inspection three days ago by one of the clerks from the bank, a Mr. Smith, and it is now in your possession.” My uncle was speechless. “Hear me further. The accuracy of my statements hitherto may claim credence for what I am about to affirm. Unless lam greatly mistaken, there are now in this establishment two persons who have been employed to regain possession, at all costs, of that forged paper. They suspect that you have it. and already your room arid your daughter and niece’s room have been searched, and it only remains to search your person.” My uncle turned pale. “It is known that you are leaving tomorrow morning, and the attempt will be made between now and then. Will you allow me to offer you my advice ?” I will not attempt to describe my respected uncle’s condition of body and mind at this part of the interview. Suffice if. to say that the proffered advice

was ultimately adopted. On that evening my uncle declined to accompany us when, an hour after dinner, the house emptied on to the promenade. Mr. Gregory also was missing, and had not appeared at dinner. The Rev. Mr. Briggs took us under his care. My uncle was already nodding in his chair as we went out. Twenty minutes afterward two of the company softly reentered the room. This I had from an eye-witness. Their names were Mr. and Mrs. Grice. Mrs. Grice stood at the door and her husband advanced gently across the floor to where my uncle back in his chair, snoring audibly, his handkerchief over his head, his coat thrown open, and a pocket-book just showing in his breast-pocket. Mr. Grice crept up to him, abstracted the book with a practiced hand, put it into his own pocket, and turned to go. Now, as he re-crossed the room, he had to pass before a large lounge, with long hangings in front, and he was, perhaps, somewhat surprised to find his ankles seized in the firm grip of a pair of hands thrust out suddenly from uuder the lounge. As he fell, his amiable partner turned round—into the arms of a detective officer. At the same moment Mr. Gregory entered through the window from the balcony. “This is your pocket-book, sir,” said one of the detectives.

“Thank you,” said my uncle. “It has nothing in it, but I am glad to have it back again.” Mr. and Mrs. Grice were removed at once to another public establishment in the neighborhood, where the company' was very select, the hours very regular, and maintenance very cheap —a style of establishment which it was subsequently proved they had frequented iu more than one part of the country. Amid considerable excitement we promenaded late that night. My uncle said : “ You have rendered me a service, sir, which lays me under the deepest obligation to you. I have no doubt that the original delinquents, of whom these creatures are only the tools, will be brought to justice. Finding that we are on their track, they have made this effort to destroy their guilt, and prevent us from submitting it to experts. Thanks to you, they nave failed. I can only say how welcome will be any opportunity of making any return to you, however slight.” “I shall certainly take you at your word, sir,” was the answer. “And now, Mr. Gregory,” continued my uncle, ‘ ‘ will you pardon our curiosity if we beg you to tell us the means by which you were able to divine the intentions of our departed friends ?” “Oh, Mr. Gregory,” cried Lily, “you must tell us. We are on thorns to know, and will do anything in the world you like to mention if you will tell us.” ‘ On those terms I consent,” said he, with a curious look at Lily, which made her suddenly blush very much, as I could seo even in the moonlight. “You may have noticed,” began Mr. Gregory, “that I am somewhat deaf, and I have been much more so. In consequence of this I have acquired the art, which I believe almost any one can acquire, of reading the movements of the lips in the same way that the deaf and dumb are taught to do, so that I can always understand what people say if only they are within seeing distance ; and my seeing is very acute. I need hardly say that I avoid over-seeing conversation, if you will allow the expression, as much as I would over-hearing it; but I frequently see people speak a few words on accidentally glancing at them. I think that what has puzzled you -will now be plain. Perhaps I ought to confess that I have yielded a little to the temptation of mystifying the company during the last week, especially in the case of Blr. Briggs, who has, like many people who have lived a good deal alone, a habit of talking to himself as he goes along, which he is scarcely aware of. This afternoon, however, I watched the Grices in good earnest. I was very much astonished at what I saw. Your sudden departure had disarranged their plans, and they had a full discussion of past and future operations. It was not at all a bad idea to hold their deliberations before your very eyes, so as to keep up their watch on your movements and disarm suspicion, but they had takeu no precautions against being overseen. The rest you know. ” “But how about the purchase of the hair-wash, that sad proof of occult art ?” I said.

“Oh, that had nothing to do with it. I was in the shop, being shaved, and I saw the transaction in a looking-glass.” Later still, when my uncle had gone in, I heard him quietly say; “So you will do whatever I like to mention?” But these words were not addressed to me, and I judged it best to fall into the rear, and, having no gifts of clairvoyance myself, I cannot tell you the rest of the conversation. I can only add that our return was postponed, and that shortly after these events Mr. Gregory again requested a private conversation with my uncle; that he had again some revelations to make concerning a conspiracy of two, male and female, in this case also ; and that shortly after the first pair of conspirators had been “sentenced for life” by one of her Majesty’s Judges, a similar sentence was pronounced upon the other pair by the Rev. Blr. Briggs.

Kaiser Wilhelm as a Figurehead.

Personally the Emperor of Germany is a large-limbed, good-natured, not-too-quick-witted man, charming as a study of character. He is, in his warlike aspect, a little more real than our lamented King George, who had so often described the event that he died in the unshaken belief that he had led a charge of cavalry at the battle of Waterloo. The Emperor William has actually heard the distant roar of artillery, and has looked upon the smoke of battle when the firing had ceased. We all remember the pretty knack he had of riding up to the great battle-fields of 1870 just as all was over, and dating, from amidst the slain, blood-red telegrams to his “ dear Augusta,” praising God for this new victory. I don’t mean to say that he would not have joined in the fray had need been or etiquette permitted. He comes of a soldier family, and his sons showed during the same campaign the stuff' of which the old tree was made. But there being no need for him to draw his sword, he was kept out of the range of bullets, and his movements carefully timed, so that he might come in with the flourish of trumpets that announced a fresh and heavier defeat of the Erench. In war Von Moltke did the fight’ng and the Emperor wrote the telegrams from the battle-field. Similarly in politics Bismarck plots and schemes, ana often wins, and, when all is ready, the old Emperor is trotted out at “interviews ” which take place in the face of the world, and whereat the harmless old gentleman ponderously plays his puppetpart, and thinks he is moving the world. The real Emperor of Germany is the heavy-looking, burly man who not so many years ago, in despair of his future, declared that heaven had intended him to be a farmer, and that wliea he left his country home to dabble in politics he was flying in the face oi Providence. Bismarck has a profound and unfeigned reverence for his imperial master, as is frequently shown in the volume of his “ Early Letters,” which, with characteristic and amazing frankness, he half a dozen years ago permitted the world to read. But he plays with him with the skill and coolness that a marionette is handled by its proprietor. Probably the last man in tlie world to suspect the autocracy of Bismarck is the Emperor William. Yet every one else knows that in Germany the Emperor reigng and Bismarck governs.— Hard,iff Times ,

HEALTH INTELLIGENCE.

[From Dr. F e o«e’» Health Monthly.] The population of York City s asylum for male insane is increasing a the rate of one hundred a year. Db. Oswald says children ought not to have hot porridge, and that hot and cold drinks are more injurious to the teeth than-sweetmeats. Db. Squan believes that many weaklooking girls suffer in the morning from a pain in the back, due to a sagging of the bed, and therefore advises placing a pillow under the spine. Prof. Billroth, of Vienna, has at last succeeded in removing a cancer of the stomach sucessfully—that is to say, the patient recovered; but many similar attempts have proved fatal. A hospital in Madris, India, is ventilated by fans operated by steam power. Several New York restaurants are similarly provided during the summer, but our are not yet up with the times in this respect. Dr. Hyrtl, Professor of Anatomy in the University of Vienna, says that in the eyes of an anatomist the most beautiful feet afe large, long, and broad, and that the greatest beauties of Europe—the Italians—have such feet A physician who was preparing himself to avoid sea-sickness by taking “bromides,” took so much that tempporary insanity was induced and he threw himself overboard and was drowned. “Bromides” are neither a safo nor sure preventive of sea-sickness. In a Parisian hospital the itch is treated and quickly cured by a half hours’ rubbing of the body with soft soap, followed by a bath, and that in turn followed by the use of au ointment composed of lard, 100 parts; sulphur, 16; and bicarbonate of potash, 8 parts. If men will use tobacco and thereby make their breath offensive, it would at least be a kindness to their friends if they would adopt the suggestion of a Chicago physician who says that the use of 20 or 30 drops of bromo-chloralum in a tablespoonful of water forms an excellent deodorizing mouth-wash. The trichinae parasites were discovered in man twenty-five years before their importance was understood. They were considered harmlesss curiosities until 1860, when Dr. Zenker, of Dresden, Germany, found them to be the cause of a case of trichinosis, and traced their origin to diseased pork. The Viscountess Harberton Is President of the “Rational Dress Society,” which has been formed in London, “to promote the adoption, according to individual taste and convenience, of a style of dress based upon considerations of health, comfort, and beauty, and to deprecate constaut changes of fashion, which cannot be recommended on any of these grounds.” Charles Darwin, writing for Nature about inheritance, tells this story: A gentleman, who, when a boy, acquired a deformity of the thumbs following the result of exposure to cold, had four children ; and two of them, the first and third, inherited the peculiarity. The first, a girl, when married, had four children, and again the first and third exhibited the peculiarity of the thumbs, but in the third generation it did not appear.

“Don’t Know Half Their Value.”

“They cured me of Ague, Biliousness and Kidney Complaint, as recommended. I had a half-bottle left which I used for my two little girls, who the doctors and neighbors' said could not bo cured. I would have lost both of them one night if I had not given them Hop Bitiers. They did them so much good I continued thenuse until they were cured. That is wliv I say you do not know half the value of Hop Bitters, and do not recommend them high onough.”— 8., Rochester, N. Y. See other column.— American Hural Home.

A Husband’s Love.

It is easy enough to win a husband. Blost any attractive little dumpling with a bright eye and coaxing voice can gather in a noble husband, but it is pretty difficult to retain him. Noble husbands are thicker than hair on a dog, but the grand difficulty is to draw chit their true nobility and secure it at borne. If the wife only understands her business slie can introduce the soothing racket in her new field of operations aud walk away with the whole business. Blost men like to be loved and soothed. There is something in the man’s great, rough, earnest nature that can be won quicker and easier with gentleness aud pie than by the logic of the broomhandle and a bilious course of reasoning with bread-and-milk diet. We have seen a girl who understood her business take areformed road agent by the nose, so to speak, and lead him through life in such a way that he wouldn’t know but that lie was boss of the ranch. So perfect was the delusion, that when she asked him to bring in a scuttle of coal, or get up in liis night-shirt and kill a burglar, that he knew was nothing but a bob-tailed cow four blocks away, he always went, and ho felt as though he counted it a mark of special favor that a poor unworthy worm of the dust, like him, should be sought out and delegated to go and elia-e a lame cow across nine vacant lots with an old barrel stave, aud clothed in nothing but a little brief authority and a knit undershirt. We cannot exactly describe this magic Cower of a devoted wife over her lmsand, and we do not intend to try it. It is an unseen motive, a nameless leverage that makes the husband get up in tne dead hour of the night and set the pancake batter near the parlor stove. A man need not think that because he gets up and looks for burglars in the night and is otherwise obedient, it is because he has no backbone. It is simply because he is the husband of a woman of whom he ought to be proud.— Boomerang.

Wounds of the Heart.

It is generally supposed that wounds of the heart kill immediately, and a correspondent has sent to use a stag’s heart with the left auricle practically annihilated and the upper half the left ventricle torn completely through by a bullet; so that three fingers can be readily passed through the wound into the cavity. Notwithstanding the extent of the injury, “ the stag ran about sixty yards, the first ten yards up hill.” The fact is that wounds of the heart are but seldom immediately fatal, if ever so. We know of no case of absolutely instantaneous death from a wound of the heart, in any part or however extensive. The experience in the battle-field corresponds with that of the sportsman, who never saw a deer shot through the heart that did not run some distance. Wounds of the apex kill comparatively slowly, in from one hour upward ; and in one case mentioned by John Bell, in which the apex was completely severed from the rest of the organ by a sword cut, the man lived twelve hours. Indeed, out of twentynine collected cases of injury to the heart, only two were fatal within fortyeight hours, and in the others' death resulted in periods varying from four to twenty-eight days. Recovery may take place even when the wound is extensive, for a bullet has been found imbeded in the substance of the heart after a lapse of six years from the date of the injury, the patient having died from a disease of an organ in no way connected with the lesion. Some little time elapses before the blood wholly escapes from or fails to enter the cavities, and the walls continue to contract and propel some of it into the vessels for a much longer period than is usually thought to be the case.— Lancet, The King of Denmark is .truly a paternal monarch. Finding that during the recent seme weather the royal foot guards were suffering greatly from Coaid and Coughs,-this good Did gentleman ordered a supply of Dr. Bull’s Cough Syrup for them, and now the sentries tre happy,

The Leading-Strings Fallacy.

From the moment a born he is treated on the principle that all his instincts are essentially wrong, that nature must be thwarted and contetfocted in every possible way. He ia strapped up in a contrivance that he would be giml to exchange lor a straight jacket, kept for hours in a position that prevents him from moving any limb of his body. His first attempts at locomotion are checked; he is put in leading-string, he is carefully guarded from the oiißltfor world, from the air that would invigorate his lungs, from the sports that would develop his muscles. Hence the peevishness, awkardness and sickliness of our young aristocrats. Poor people have no time to imitate the absurdities of tlieis wealthy neighbors and their childr**?* profit by what the model nuise would undoubtedly call neglect. Indian babies are still 1 letter off. They aro fed on bullbeef and kicked around like young dogs; but they are not swaddled, they are not cradled and not dosed with paregoric ; they crawl aronnd nuked and soon learn to keep out of the way; they are happy, they never cry. If we would treat our youngsters in the same wav, onlpr substituting kisses and bread for kicks and beef, they would be as happy as kids in a clover-field, and, moreover, they would afterward be hardier and stronger.— Popular Science Monthly.

A Talented Negro.

S. A. Butler, the head of the Shanghai Navigation Company, is a remarkable man. He is a negro, reared in the United States, being the son of a preacher in Washington. He was educated in Paris, and became master of tlie French, German and Italian languages. Having attracted tlie attention of Ansen Burlingame, he became tliat Minister’s Private Secretary and accompanied him to China. Then he soon left the embassy, was employed by cn American trading lions ', and later by tlie Shanghai Navigation Company, At length the steamers of that company were bought by a number of Chinese merchants, who took Butler into their employ, and authorized iiim to reorganize the steam service at his own discretion. He managed affairs so successfully that at the end of two rears the company had a net profit of 000,000. The corporation now owns thirty-six steamers, and is becoming a formidable rival of European steamer owners, with whom it is about to contend for the supremacy of the Pacific. All of which has been accomplished by tie genius of a black man.— Virginia (Nev.) Chronicle.

RESCUED Fito3l DEATH. William J.Coughlin,of Somerville, M ss., say*: In lb* fall of 18715 I wae taken with bleeding of the lunge, followed by a severe cough. I lost my appetite and flesh, and was confined to my bed. In 1877 I wae admitted to the hospital. The doctors said I had a hole in my lung aa big aa a half dollar. At one time a report went around that I wae dead. I gave np hope, bnt a friend to'd mo of Dr. William Hall’s Balsam for the Lung*. I got e bottle, when, to my surprise, I commenced to foel better, and to-day I feel better than for three yean past. I write thia hoping every one affl cted with diseased lunge will take Da. William Hall's Balsam, and be convinced that consumption CAN BE cured. I can positively say it has done more good than all the other medieinee I have taken since my sickness.

It is a curious fact, which bas not escaped masouliiiß attentfan, - that while > l|diM aiteoften seised with a passionate diaSl to put their hnshank’s :in otdW| mwn belongings is less sedulously cared for. One author noted the inoonatQtency, and points out that Mr. Pepys haa observed it two hundred years ago. She oitesiaii extract Ilia diary under the dated‘October 13, 1669: “Home, where I was angry with my wife for hpr things lying about, and in my passion I kicked the little fine basket I bought her in Holland, and broke it, Which troubled me aftqy I had ft. “ Some close sanasT ssss -MS? She admit where a young woman is not naturally orderly, where slm has an instinct, when she cotn» frit* the house, to put her hat on fabio# life sfiSwl on a sofa, her gloves somewhere else, and to try each day a new place for her rubbers, that to overcome this iemlcaoy involves efforts equal to those made when striving for heroic virtues. She deems it no more di file flit for such a person to acquire habits of order than to perfectly learn a foreign language, which, however, is one of those feats we can not now remember to have ever seen accomplished. It is with melancholy satisfaction that we find the writer dwelling on the sad truth t hat the little disturbances occasioned by disorderly habits are not so uuimportant as they appear, and that it is a great deal easier to express impatience and discontent a second time than it was the first.
