NEW PROSPECTUS!
Ladies' Companion!

A STANDARD NATIONAL MAGAZINE
Published Monthly in the City Of New York, by
WILLIAM w. SNowDEN.
Numerous EngrauingS IN each Number.
The exalted reputation of this popular magazine
has been so long and so widely established that it
may perhaps be deemed by some supererogatory on
the part of the proprietor to offer q direct EXPOSE
ton of its merits and its claims. The LADIES'
Companion needs no Mandatory pufs to force it into
a precarious existence il has, for number of
years, spoken for itself, and in voice which has
fOand most satisfactory response in the literary
taste Of the nge. Conforming, however. to Gus
tom which seems to demand few words occa-
s'onally from the proprietor to his patrons and the
public. we will simply and succnctlv enumerae
the chief titles which this standard national maya
zine has to the enormous patronage which it has
for so many years enjoyed and to that regular and
uninterrupted advance in the favor Of the critical,
the literary and the refined, which has ever, in
degree peculiar to ITSELF characterized .hs progress
of the work.
On the minor merits of the Ladies Companion,
the mechanical execution, paper, typography etc,
il is needless to dwell. 1t has ever been the object
of the proprietor to place his magazine, even in
these points, beyond competitions; but in doing so,
he has had no disposition to sacrifice the more i'm
porlunt md substantial qualities which ought to
distinguish national and standard periodical. 1t
is its pre-eminence in the literary department,
upon which is based the principle claims Of the
Ladies' Companion. To its pages the proprietor
boldly refers for proof of the assertion that by
none of its numerous rivals and imitators, has the
Companion ever been equalled or even approached
in its

LITERARY CHARACTER

If further proof were needed, the proprietor
would point with emotions of pleasure and pride
to the following list of distinguished names, EN-.
bracing the principal regular contributors whose
able pens have eXerted so much influence through
the pages Of this magazine upon the literary taste
of the day.

MARRIAGE ExTRAoRpINARY.-T la
test, if not the BEST matrimonial case that
has come to hand, is the following one
which we copy from the Missouri Courier
of the 2lst ultimo:
MARRlED-On the 20lh inst, at 5 o'clock
P. NJ, in the town OF Palmyra, Immediately
where Church and Lafayette streets cross, oppo,
site the old Wing office, by James F. Mahan.
Esq, Mr., NELsoN AUBREY to MISS ELIZA Llr
TIE, late of Kentucky.
This operation was performed in the
middle of the street. The circumstances
are little romantic. 1t seems two fami-
lies were travelling westward in company,
with one of which was the fair ady, with
the other the loving swain. who had con-
cluded to marry. The old folks refused
consent. They thus travelled on until the
families with their wagons parted, each Ia
king different roads when the lady con-
trlved to escape from her parents wagon
and follow that of her lover On reaching
town they jumped out of their wagon,
called for the Squire. hitched traces, and
drove on their way rejoicing

TRULY ELOQUENT.

Washingtonianism has given birth to as
brilliant specimens of true eloquence, as
heart could desire. Witness the following
touching appeal to the young, made by an
aged man. at a recent temperance jubilee
at Newmarket, N. H.:
Il have come he confined, twelve miles to
attend this meeting-yet do not value my
time-i feel awarded by what | see around
me. My friends. have seen more Of the
world than most of you. | have tired the
streets OF proud old London; and the winds
of distant India have famed these furrowed
cheeks Of mine. My keel has been upon
every sea. and my name upon many tung.
Heaven blessed me with one Of the best of
wves-and my children, oh why should
speak of them My home was once a par
adise. But bowed, like a brute, to the
killing cup My eldest son tore himself
from his degraded father, and has never re-
turned. My young hearts idol-my be-
loved wife. has gone broken-hearted TO her
grave. And my lovely daughter, whose
image | seem to see in the beautiful around
m2-once my pride and my hope-pined
away in sorrow and mourning because her
her father was drunkard, and now sleeps
by her mothers side. But still live to tell
the history of my shame, and the ruin of
my family. | still live and stand here be-
fore you, to offer up my hearts gratitude to
my Heavenly Father, that l have been
snatched from the brink of the drunkard's
grave. live to be a sober man. And
while live, shall struggle to restore my
wandering brethren again to the bosom of
society. This form of mine is wasting and
bending under the weight of years. But,
my young friends. you are just blooming
into life: the place of your fathers and
mothers will soon be vacant. See that
you come up to fill them with pure hearts
and nnonted lips! Bind the blessed
pledge firmly to your hearts, and be it the
Sibboleth of fe's warfare"

MISSOURI CONFERENCE.

This body has been in session, in this
place for the last eight days. Between 100
and 100 ministers have been in attendance.
Several others, we understand, have been
prevented from attending by sickness
Some % or % Deacons and or 6 Elders,
were ordained. Admitted on trial, IS.
The increase in the church. during the past
year, is 1851 whites; SID coIored; and 210
Indians.
The Districts and Circuits of the Con
ference have undergone a reorganization
and several new Circuits created The
amount of business transacted is said to be
considerable and of much importance to
the Methodist Church in this State.
OF the talent and qualifications of the
various members of this Conference, for
the duties belonging to their profession and
their several appointments, we do not feel
called upon to express an opinion. The
citizens of this place and vicinity have had
ample opportunities of Judging for them
selves. OF most of the public discourses
which we have been permitted to hear, du-
ring the session, we can speak in high
terms.
1t will be seen that the next session is 10
be held 10 St. Louis, on the---of-,
(he day to be fixed by the General Confer
ence) 1914, at the Centenary Church.

ference. to be held in New York, on the lst

The Stars.

4 re OIUTS.
Edla loved the stars. From her child
hood she had held converse with them. In
hours of trouble, in the nome nts of prayer,
in those in which her soul yearned after
communion with higher spirits, she had
often seen the clouds divide, and the stars
beam down upon her. This view had al
ways wonderfully strengthened her. She
attached no distinct thoughts to this star
greeting, but she felt it as the sympathy of
friend as an invigorating glance from the
eye of the Almighty. From the time that
EdIa had believed that she should find no
friend on earth, she had accustomed her
self TO look for one in the stars, and had
never felt her heart deceived. Besides they
were so beautiful, so eIevating Their in
finitude causes the Creator to appear so
great--the actions and passions of men, so
small
TUiligM at the Fueside.
Twilight and snow-drfs, fire in the
chimney, and deep silence in lonely
room, are the most suspicious spirits of
confidence. In the hour of twilight, Mys-
terry, that child afraid of the light, steps
forth from its hiding place; then wheel the
bats here and there, the owls utter their
ominous cry, Come with us! come with
usr' The fear of spectres announces itself
amid its shuddering and terrors. But then
also nobler appartions of the hidden world
come forth from the depths of the human
heart. How gladly does Reconcilemenl

descending sun! How lovingly and re
freshingly descend the dews of Consola
ton l will not speak of declarations Of
dove; between the twilight and the fire they
skip forth involuntariy, and are the lighter
footed the more they resemble will-o'-wisps
The Christ child. too, appears at this hour
In word, it is remarkable how, in the
gossiping hour of twilight, everything
comes to the daylight.
