For the Sunday Sentinel.! THE RICH AND THE POOR.
BY LUCRETIA. Riches ahd Poverty sat side by side; The good gifts to one are all multiplied, Heaped with the much from abountlfulhand, Wealth, love and beauty all at her command; Thoughts for the morrow are banished at will; She has no wishes love can not fulfill ; Why should she notice the pain at her side-: I loom enough 'tween them, the world Is m wide! Riches and Poverty sat Bide by side, The rich one has comforts, the poor but her pride; All thiugs are taken, all light from above, Home, riches, and beauty and laut, even love. Cold seemed the world, and dark, yet she felt Ood made me your equal, but sparingly dealt The good things of life these all are for you Precious gift of the heart and promises true. Riches and Poverty sat side by side; A sigh filled the heart of the one who's denied. Hitting close by the rich must she witness her "Wreathing smiles that she may not the fair one annoy. "Forgive me, O Father," she prayed the same night, "Forgive me, and lead me once more to the light; Sorrows of heart made me question Thy will, Meekness now give me Thy law to fulfill." ' Riches and Poverty sat side by side ; The tame Ood hath made them, yet to one hath denied All things in this world that could make her life bright Even treasures of heart fade quickly from sight. But are there no riches for her up on high, The precious soul treasures that never can die ; Like Lazarus now, does she wait at the gate,' To enter at last to a happier state? ALL SORTS. A cousin of Jennie Lind of old time memories, Lars Lind, resides in Sterling, Illinois. He is a carpenter, and a good, faithful workman. A Michigan Indian observes: "Big crop cranberries big whisky; small crop cranberries one glass pop and no boots next winter."

The following recipe, it is said, furnishes a mixture which kills potato bngj and their egg: Steep tobacco stems or refuse tobacco and to the decoction add lye from wood ashes or potash, and sprinkle the liquid upon the yines with a otnm m sprinkler. The Chicago public library contains 51,408 volumes, and is valued at $S0,000. The expenses for the year just closed were $25,!j0. There are 40,ö-5s names on the list of borrowers, and the number of visitors to the library and reading room during the year was 750ooo. Captain Boyton had a narrow escape while descending the Rhone. At Taraseon the peasants, taking him to be a seal or some new sort of marine monster, got out their fowlinz pieces and opened a lively fusilade upon him, compelling him to hoist his colors.

The director of the mint has been instructed by the secretary of the treasury to have two first class medals cast for Colanel J. Schuyler Crosby and Mr. Carl Fosberg, as testimonials to their brave conduct in saving human life at the time of the sinking of the yacht Mohawk, opposite S taten Island. The pages in the sultan's seraglio-are of Greek and Hungarian nationality, selected on account of their beautiful looks. They dress like little kings, and bear themselves in a royally hacghty manner toward the crowd of obsequious servants and personages surrounding them in the imierial household. . The nest of a buiuming-bird is thus described by a Californian: "It is about as large at the top as a half dollar, and is made of spider webs, downy feathers, with fibres of bark and shreds of cotton, all interwoven. The eggs, two in number, were about the size of a small white bean, and the young birds before they were fledged resembled bumblebees. " When George Beers looked through the house of old Mr. Phelps, of Phelps, Dodge A Coj, the young widow said to him plaintively, -Oh Mr. Beers! My husband has prayed in every room in this house." ''I am glad to bear it, my dear madime," replied the gallant Beers, "I hope it will bring me luck." He afterwards occupied the mansion as a gambling hell.- ' ; '- The machinery in the printing office of the Volksfreund, Paterson, N. J., is run by a petroleum motor. . . When the engine first starts it makes queer demonstrations and startling noises with the igniting gases, but it soon goes off with a whirr, and drives all the machinery with the regularity and power of a steam engine. The new engine has been in use but two months, and uses two gal ons of oil, costing 25 cents per day. Concord, N. H.. and that region, seems to be cursed with canker worms beyond all precedent. The apple trees do not blossom thitf year, and it is feared that some of the young trees have been 'fatally injured.

A man on West Hill has brought peace into his family circle forever. Last week he moved into a new house containging a bay window and 23 closets, and he bought his wife nine miles of clothes line, a cord of clothes line props and 124 dozen clothes pins. And the angels just come down and sit around on the side fence and envy that woman's perfect happiness. Burlington Hawkeye. John Stevenson, an ex-convict, who was confined until quite recently in the Illinois penitentiary for the crime of burglary, committed near Jacksonville, Illinois, four years ago, has confessed that he knows the present whereabouts of Charley Ross. Stevenson seems to be so earnest that a large number of people believe his story, and steps are to be taken to test the truth of his assertion. He says that he is perfectly familiar with the details of the abduction, and that very recently th child was in Louisville, and in April was within twenty-five miles of his old home. The following story is told of ex-Mayor Blood of Fitchburg, Massachusetts, who has i'ust failed: A poor woman who hid lent um about $400, all the mony she possessed, heard of his financial troubles and called to see if she could not save her money. "What if I don't pav you?" asked the debtor. "Oh, then I shall pray for yon," answered the poor woman. "What if I pjy you?" he asked. "Then I Bhall pray for you," was the reply. "Then 1 will pay you to-morrow," said the debtor; "for you are bound to pray for me, and I want your prayers on the right side." The sale of his horse and carriage is said to have provided the means for liquidating the popr woman s claim. LITERARY NOTES. 1 Mr. Francillon, the author of the new novel, Olympia, is about thirty-five years old, and has done a great deal of good work In a yery short time. ' It is authoritatively stated that Miss Elizabeth Stuart Phelps is not to introduce into her new story a special discussion or the woman question. Mrs. Charles, author of "The Schoenberg Cotta Family," will shortly begin the publication of a new story, "Lapsed, But Not Lost, ' a tale of Roman Carthage. Mrs. Helene D' Apery, known to the liter ary world as "Olive Harper,' has left the Bohemian world and settled for lire at Val hermoosa Springs, Morgan county, Ala. ' Mrs. Celia Thaxter, poet, was born on Apledore island (Isles of Shoals) where her ather resided as a half hermit, and she never went to the main land until she was nearly 12 years old. Gail Hamilton began her literary career as a contributor to the lioston Congregational ism She takes her pseudonym from Gail, the abbreviation of her second name, Abigail, and Hamilton (Mass.,) the place of her irth. The Literary World is authority for the statement tht the Spra?ue collection of manuscripts still awaits a purchaser, and that the prospect is increasing of its being broken up under the hammer, or of its trans fer to Lugland. Edmund C. Stedman has, it is siid, de ferred the completion of his translation of Theocritus, on which he has beii toruetime engaged, to devote such leisure as he may have to original composition. He has reserved the remainder of Theocritus for the years when he shell be no longer young. The publishers of Paul de Musset's biography of his brother Alfred having re opened in Pans the subject of the dead poet s relation to George band, and the ciuse of their estrangement, i dozen ad ditional revisions of the erratic entangle ment are speedily to be launched into the world of print. When authors have their heads turned by flattery at the success which a new work of theirs may have achieved, they should curb their vanity and try to humiliate their pride by remembering that Tupper's "Proverbial Philosophy" has passed through 60 editions in England and sold over 600.000 copies in this country. It was a singular time the recent discus sion of the liquor qu.stion in the Massachu setts senate for the decision as to whether the proposed bill should have the word drank, according to Webster's dictionary, or drunk, according to Worcester s, and the senate resolutely stood by Worcester's dictionary and refused to entertain the substitution of drank for drunk. Mr. Edgar Fawcett, writing about his young brother poets, sayj that Mr. Aldnch "has written very little that is not surpass inglygoodof its kind;" that Mr. Paul II. Hayne's verse has some resemblance to Shel ley's; that lt. W. Guilder's book is full "of noticeable conceits, and exceedingly devoid of true poetry," and that Mr. Lanier s poems are "a mixture of genuine beauty and exaadoi 9A lMaAManAca ' - ' Charles Dickens's last speech In public, that at the academy dinner in 1870. was per haps his best. What could be more exquisite than such a touch as this? "Since I first en tered the public lists, a very young man indeed, it has been my constant good fortune to number among my nearest and dearest friends members of the Royal academy who have beeu its grace and pride, , lhey have so dropped from my side one by one that I already begin to feel like the Spanish monk of whom Wilkie tells, who had grown to be lieve that the only realities around aim were the pictures wtiich he loved, and that all the moving life he saw, or ever had seen, was a shadow and a dream." However mixed or however select his audience, Charles Dick ens always fixed its delighted attention. -A Berlin cprrespondent of the Literary World, remarking on, the German criticism of current light American literature, says the critics are not content with being amused, by Bret Harte, T, li. Aldrich and Mark Twain; they see an ethical or esthetical pur pose in everything, without which they would regard the perusal of such works a waste of timej They assume, too, that Harte with perhaps trilling exaggerations, depicts the everyday state of society and family life, not alone in California and Montana, but throughout America. As. to comparative merit the critics do not, all agree, the most considering Harte the (greatest American genius; while others award this glory to Aldrich.A well known Gerdau critical journal, comparing these tw writers, tomewbat ludicrously a'lds: "'But while Har e,is mtraly -a paiuter of externals, of manners, Aldrich reminds one continually of Richter; L Uepictj tlic ieJx il th.e soul."

Far. on the brink of dav. Thou standest as the herald of the dawn. Ere fades the night s last nickering spark away In the rich blaze of morn. ; Above the eternal snows. By winter scattered on the mountain height To shroud the centuries, thy visage glows , With, a prophetic light. Calm Is thine awful brow ; ' As when thy presence shrined divinity, ' Between the flaming cherubim, so now Its shadow clings to thee. Yet, as an ange! mild, Thou, in the torrid neon, with sheltering wing, Dost o'er the earth, aa on a weary child, A soothing Influence bring. And when the evening dies, Still to thy frlgned vesture cleaves the light, The laut sad glimmer of her tearful eye. On the dark verge of night. So, soon thy glories wane ! Thou, too, must mourn the roue of morning shed; Cold creeps the fatal shadow o'er thy train, And settles on thy head. And, while the wistful eye Yearns for the charm that wooed its ravished Raze, " The sympat hy of nature wakes a sigh. And thus its thought betrays. Thou, like the cloud, my soul, Dost, lu thyself, of bauty naught possess; Devoid the light of Heaven, a vapor foul, Tho veil of nothingness. John B. Tabb, in Harper's Magazine for July RELIUIOl'S INTELLIGENCE. Four-fifths of the audiences at the Moody and Sankey meetings in Boston were women. Mr. Spurgeon is again suffering from ill health. He has been compelled lately to give up several preaching engagements. A Baptist minister of Charleston, Massachusetts, about to leave for the west, was tendered a dinner by the neighboring Catholic clergymen. , . It was the late Dr. Taylor Lewis who aptly characterized Matthew Arnold as "that man in England who tries to" ride high church, broad church and infidelity all together.". The general assembly of the United Presbyterian church, at its late meeting in Spar ta, Illinois, decided against permitting the use of musical instruments in public worship. , . In his address to the Scotch pilgrims to Rome, the pope expressed the purpose of reestablishing the Catholic hierarchy in Scotland., I Since 1827 there have been three Scotch vicarates, the eastern, northern and western. . Bishop Andrews, who has been making a tour of the world, inspecting the Methodist Episcopal foreign missions, expects to embark for America on the 25th of Julv. The last two months of his stay abroad will be spent in Germany, Denmark and Sweden. The revival in Seneca Falls. New York, began under the preaching of the Rev. K. P. Hammond on the 14th of April. He continued there for three weeks, and after be left the work begun still went on, and has been kept up to the present time. Over G50 persons have professed conversion. Ebers, the well known German Egyptologist, gives a different explanation of the name of Moses than that commonly received. He says that instead of being derived from two words which signify "rescued from the water," it is the very common Egyptian word nies or mesu, meaning "child" or "boy." The managers of the Women's Christian Temperance union of Philadelphia have opened a home for intemperate women of the upper and middle classes. The discipline of the hofne will be Christian. The best medical attendance will be provided. The home is for a class of women for whom other reformatory institutions would be wholly unsuitable. ; "How do you know, vrith certainty, the truth of your religion?" said an inquirer to a humble but faithful disciple. "Just as I know the sun shines," replied the other, 'because I see its light and feel its heat." Add so there are thousands, competent and faithful witnesses, who know from their own experience the truth of Christianity because they have felt in their own hearts and lives its transforming and comforting and sustaining power. ; Missionaries in the northeastern provinces of China give painful accounts of the famine re vailing there. The struggle for existence s very severe. The people devour potato stalks, bark of trees, turmn leaves, or whatever can be eaten. In some towns, during the cold weather, large pits have been due, in which crowds huddle to keep warm. Chingchow has four such pits; in one of them 240 persons were packed. As fast as the dead bodies were removed from it there would be struggle for the vacant places. The Jews have 1M synagogues in this country, of which New York has 33, and Maine, the next larger number, 23. In Pennsylvania there are 14. in Illinois 9, and 7 each in California, Ohio and Vermont. The board of Jewish delegates reports that it has received statistical returns from 174 congregations and Utf societies, from which partial data it appears there is a Jewish population in the Union of 189,576. The total Jewish, population in the country the board estimates at 230,000, of whom 60,000 are In New York city. There are in all 311 congregations, with property valued at $5,897,400. - ' ' THE IiIIXAPIJSD CHILD. The Way the Old ling- Treated Mary 91 asteroii. The Philadelphia Times has the following account of the return of little Mary Masterson, the kidnapped child, who was recovered here: .At 8 o'clock yesterday morning Detective Umstead returned to this city from St. Louis, having in charge the little girl Mary Masterson and her abductor, the woman Fannie Brown, alias Peele, alias Pollard. It will be remembered that the little girl was stolen from her home on Charles street, a' small thoroughfare running from South to Bainbridge, between Fourth and Fifth streets, on , the 11th of April last. Nothing was known of their whereabouts "until the 5th instant, when a dispatch from Chief of Police McDonougU, of St. Louis, informed the chief of police of this city that he had the woman .13d child in custody. The kidnapping woman had a hearing before Alderman Carpen ter at 2 o'clock. She is about 60 years old, and her features are weazened, iuring the hearing this Madame . Frochard kept' her eyes closed, except when some particular point in the evidence was given. Ann White, the grandmother of the child, testified to the abduction, the particulars of which have been published.' The little girl, a bright, dark eyed, intelligent child, then gave her testimony in a clear and' distinct manner. She said that she met te'prisoner after leaving school, who gave her pennies and candy, and induced her to get into a street car with her. The first night they stopped in the city, and next morning went to An napolis, thence to Washington, where the prisouer said she had a brother living. Mrs.' Brown forced 'the witness to beg in the strsets, fsle-pirs in the sonp house at
night. After-two or three days they went to Baltimore and slept at. the station house. Tbey begged everv day testified little Mary, the old woman whipping her when she refused to ask for money. They stayed in Baltimore one week, and then a kind gentleman gave them a pass to Indianapolis. On the way the conductors gave them food. From Indianapolis they went to St. Louis, traveling on foot part of the time and getting pasws over the railroad the rest. The child said she was treated kindly . by the farmers and others on the way, but thafc on many occasions the old woman would whip her. On reaching St. Louis they Btopped with the Sisters of Charity, who gave them supptr and lodging every night. While it was light the child was forced to beg, and told to say that her name was Mamie Brown, and, if aiked, that her father was dead. The old woman had told her that her grandmother and father were no more. Patrick Masterson, the little one's father, gave his testimonjT, which was not material to the case. Detective Umstead detailed his trip and said that on arriving at St. Louis, in company with Detective Ilennessy and P. F. Lawlor. of St. Louis, he had discovered the truth of the girl's statement. At the conclusion of the testimony the alderman committed the prisoner in default of $3,000 to answer at court the charge of enticing the girl from her home. The little one was trken charge of by her father, and grandmo -r, her mother being dead. .,. Rl'SSIA.
Tba 1'ecliuc AmouK the INtople Abont the War. An English correspondent writes from St. Petersburg, May 25: In a hasty journey from the southern part of Russia northward, I made such notes as were possible of current sentiment. The enthusiasm appears to me to have been much exaggerated. The sham subscription to the internal loan was the first proof of this. . The large public and private donations to the war fund afford no real contradiction to the fact The former are but voluntary on the surface, obligatory in reality. The latter bring their own reward in a variety of ways reputatioii,ofiire, decorations. Often and often have I heard, not from an ignorant moujik, but from a well-to-do tradesman, the remark, "Nobody can tell me what the war is for; it seemed as if we had much to remedy at home ere we sought to carry civilization . beyond our frontiers." If this ignorance exists in the middle, or what represents the middle class, it is certain to , be yet more Erofound in a lower grade. The czar told is people the grand duke told his army that the amelioration of the lot of the Christians under Ottoman rule was the reason for the war. From no one I have heard, or overheard, the Bulgarians mentioned save in terms of contempt From no one olficer, soldier, merchant or trades person have I heard a word betokening belief in such an object. The personal honor of the emperor is beyond all question, lie abhors the war. From family tradition he looks upon this year of his life with dread. There is no individual in all Europe to be more pitied Alexander II. is the lord, emperor and autocrat of all the Russias, but be has been forced to act against his Own feeling, his own judgment by unscrupulous advisers, aided and abrtted by some members of the imperial family not by public opinion, for it do;s not exist, or can at any rate find no expression if adverse to the views of the government. Nobody with any knowledge of Russia joins in the wonderful nonene that is talked about secret societies, Nihilists, and what not. There are secret societies in Russia, but they are nothing more or less than the instruments of the government, and are one and all unde r the direction of the chief of the secret Klice. There may be a desire to form liberal associations, but any attempt at practical fulfillment would "inevitably entail Txmseq'iences too terrible for even onr imagination. I say that there is but a very lukewarm enthusiasm for the war. I almost say that there is no enthusiasm for it at ail, biit great dislike and dread for the consequences. There is, however, a certain desire for a favorable issue now that the matter is in progress. But this I emphatically declare, that neither public opinion nor public feeling, nor secret societies, nor Nihilists force t he bands of the government. Not a man in Russia who does cot understand how serious is the situation, not one who did not foresee it. Think you that the 30.000 people who on the morrow of the declaration tied from Odessa were anxious for the war, or the bankrupt traders, the ruined families, the starvii g laborers? What, then, were the causes of the war? They were three: First, unconquerable ambition; secondly, impending bankruptcy; thirdly, the existence of a constitution in the Ottoman dominions. The latter was, perhaps. the most urgent. Although coercive measures may be taken and are taken every day to repress any discontent, it would have been impossible to prevent all Muscovy from feeling that it at least was entitled to the same representative form of government which is enjoyed by every European nation down to the "brutal, savage, ignorant Turk." The secret police and Siberia might have postponed a crisis; but the effect of such a sentiment could not fail to be injurious to the sole rem lining representative of aristocracy. The Golos hinted at this and was punished, as is every journal not servile to the government The war diverts men's thoughts into other channels. Its results will occupy them equally. So much for the causes of the war. Now, what is its object? It has never varied; it was and is Constantinople. Nobody attempts to deny it now. Nobody attempts to put another object forward. One oi the most prominent of the "pro-Christianf" Russians admitted it undisgtiisedly to me the other day. The proof is clear. If Constantinople is not the object, let Russia lay down a point, a boundarynorth of the Balkans, south ol the Balkans, it matters not but au immutable line, to advance beyond which would constitute in itself a ccunis belli. But to no such course will Russia consent. Nay, she is already seeking to pacify and ameliorate Bulgaria by laying Asiactic Turkey in waste. It has often been said, but I repeat it, this is a war of conquest The emperor is powerless. Unless we take early steps to defeat it, the object of the war will be attained. It is Constantinople; and the defense thereof begins not at its walls, but at the Danube. MOXTEXEOKO. Tbe Country and the People.

south, armies are gathering, that every block house has its guns shotted, and that, eager for the fight, along the whole frontier a rampart of bold hearts and strong artns awaits the slightest movement of the Turks. Here a strong reserve is collected, with many of the oldest chiefs, men and chiefsrequally inatient at the delay. There is nothing to do but study the people and be in readiness for tbe alarm when it cornea Headquarters uro in a little summer house of the prince, in which are quartered the staff, a portion of the perioniks (a select gendarmerie and guard), the tabKlalas (boily guard selected from the better familhs, a noble guard in fact), and such of the sirdais and voivedoes 3 are not ou the frontier or charged with special duties elsewhere. In the common people one sees more clearly tbe divergence from the Serb type jm seen in other provinces, and what is still more interesting, the relation between the prince and his people. Judged by the standard of dress they are a mass of tatterdemalions. In the ranks a majority are more . or less ragged, and the battalions do not trouble themselves much with being in aiact line or keeping any particular position, bat no army drill could secure more absolute obedience to any order. On the eastern and southern sides of the house extends a broad terrace, large enough to form two. or three battalions on, and there a portion of those who are for a moment here, with the perioniks and body guard, pass most of the day either in recounting the exploits of tbe war or in athletic sports When in the morning the prince comes out, a line is formed instantly, and all uncover while he takes his morning walk up and down the terrace. As he .. ttlks along the line, now and ' thn a man runs forward, catches the hand of the prince, and kisses it, dropping back into his place, and then another and another, the prince accepting the homaee with a manner which has a great fa?cination for the simple minded folk with a smile, a word of interest, in some uises a question as to their affairs; for he knows, it is said, every head of family in his dominions personally ahd by name. There is nothing servile in their manner, even to him, but the most unbounded reverence and devotion. It is a favorite amusement of his to wake up the emulation of tbe men by talking to some one of them of some heroic deed lie has done, and provoking comparisons, when a contest of pretensions to equal or greater merit begins, every man considering himself entitled to push his claims, which he does in no vain glorious way, but by recounting what he has done. As they are surrounded by witnesses of the deeds, no man dares exaggerate his exploits, and the crowd con arms. It is Homeric boasting without a Thersites, and, so far as I can endure, without envy. When you add to this snpreme devotion the military courage carefully stimulated so many generations, and the military discipline and system the whole people live in, there is little reason to wonder at the reckless courage shown in their wars with the Türke At the battle of Re gam i tho Tnrk8,'With 10 battalions, sunported by 17 pieces of artillery, had succeeded in carrying by surprise the hill which was the key of the position, and which was in the first attack only held by 50 men. Bozo Petrovicn, who commanded the whole district, arriving at the battle field, found the position so frongly held . tbat he despaired of driving the Turks out, and, . calling Martinovics, comtuauder of the Cettinje battalion, said to him. "I must retreat; we can't hold the position.' The battalion commander said simply, "Give me the order and in fifteen minutes I will be in the position jT dead." ''Go," said Pozo, and. yataghan in hand, the living bolt shot against the ten battalions of Turks and drove them from the hill and held it until two other battalions came up on the right, and left and drove the Turks in panic across the river. Tere were few houses in Cettinje where bereavement did not fall that day. But the total force of the Montenegrins engaged was four battalions and one gun against 10 battalions in the attacking column, two more of supports within musketry range, and 17 guns. The difference was made up by the yataghans and the absolute indifference to death of the mountaineers. Under the eye and command of the prince himself, there is no enterprise, even involving total destruction, that they would hesitate at ' A Medicine of Many Vae.
