RELIGION OF THE DoG.-The Rev. Henry
Duncan, in his Philosophy Of the Seasons, re-
lates the following original anecdote Of Burns;
81 well remember with what delight | list
ened to an interesting conversation which,
while yet a school-boy, | enjoyed an opportu-
nifty of hearing in my fathers manse, between
the poet Burns and another poet, my near re-
%lation, the amiacle Blackjack. The subject
was the fidelity of the dog. Burns took up
the question with all the ardor and kindly
feeling with which the conversation of that
extraordinary man was so remarkably imbued
1t was a subject well suited TO call forth his
powers; and when handled by such a man,
not less suited to interest the youthful fancy.
The anecdotes by which it was illustrated
have long escaped my memory; but there was
one sentiment expressed by Burns with his
own characteristic enthusiasm, which as it
threw a new light into my mind, | shall new
er forget. 'Man, said he,'' is the God of the
dog. lie knows no other; and see now he
worships him! With what reverence he
crouches at his feet; with what love he fawns
upon him, with what dependence he looks up
to him, and with what cheerful a~lacrity he o.
beys him. His whole soul 10 wrapped up in
his God; and these powers and faculties arc
enobled by the intercourse. 1t ought to be
just so with the christian: but the dog puts the
Christian to shame"

EPITOME OLE WAR

A fair exhibition of war in its origin, its
progress and actual results, would be a S tart
ling condemnation of the whole custom as a
piece of suicidal folly and madness. The
Ettrick Shepherd, in his Lay Sermons, tells
the following story quite to the point:
"The history of every war is very like a
scene once saw in Nithsdale Scotland. y
Two boys from different schools met one
fine day upon the ice. The eyed each other
awhile in silence, with rather jealous and
indignant looks, and with defiance on each
brow.
"What are We %glowrin' at, Billyl"
whats that to you, Donaldl I'll look
whar ives mind, an hinder me if you daur."

A SCENE WORTH CONSIDERING.

Years ago, the Office of the old Gazette
was In Hanover-square, near the corner OF
Pearl street. 1t was a place of resort for
news and conversation, especially in the ev-
ening. The evening of Feb. Is, 1915, was
cold, and at a late hour, only Alderman Ce-
bra and another gentleman were left with ia
Their Lang, the genius of the place. The Of
ice was about being closed, when a pilot
rushed in, and stood for a moment so entire
y exhausted as 10 be unable to speak. 'He
has great news y exclaimed Mr.. Lang. Pres
emily the pilot, grasping for breath, whisper
ed intelligibly, 'Peacei Peqcei' The gentle
men lost their breath as fast as the pilot gain
ed his. Directly the pilot was able to say,
An English sloop of war is below, with
news of a treaty of peace They say that
Lang exclaimed in greater words than he ev-
or used before or after. All hands rushed in
to Hanover square, crying peace! peace !
PEAcE!' The windows flew up, for families
lived there then. No sooner were the in
mates sure of the sweet sound of peace, than
the windows began to glow with brilliant il
Nominations. The cry of Peace! peace !
~PEAcE!' spread through the city at the top of
all voices. No one stopped to inquire about
free trade and sailors rights No one in
qnired whether even the national honor had
been preserved. The matters by which pol
i~ticIans had irritated the nation into war, had
lost all their importance. 1t was enough that
the ruinous war was over. An old man on
Broadway, attracted by the noise to his door,
was seen to pull down Immediately a %placard,
TO Let which had been long posted up
Never was there such joy in the city. A few
evenings after, there was a general illuinina-
ton, and although the snow was a foot deep
and soaked with rain, yet the streets were
crowded with men and women, eager to see
and partake of everything which had in it the
sight or taste Of peace.-[N. y. Journal of
Commerce.

MISCELLANEOUS.
A TRUE STORY.

"James," said his employer, "James you
are an excellent workman; | am quite satisf-
ed with your conduct; during the ten years
you have been employed in my factory; you
have gained every ones esteem and friend
ship; but you see how it is, we have nothing
more to do, business is at an end. But you
must keep up your courage, my poor James;
ms soon as any thing offers; | will let you
know but at present, | have no occasion for
your SERVICE"
The workman heard these words, which,
although uttered in a tone OF feelingness and
pity, sounded in his ear like a sentence of
want and misery pronounced upon his wife
and children. His eyes were mournfully,
fixed on the ground as he stretched forth his
hands to receive the amount of his weeks
wages and a certificate of character.
Unable to answer a single word, he slow
ly took the road homeward. Big tears drop
ped from his eyes, and sobbing, he exclain-
ed my wife, my poor children!"-for he
was the father Of a family-a son six years
Old a daughter Just learning to walk and

THE CROWN OF LIFE.

There's a crown for the monarch, a golden
crown,
And many a ray from its wreath streams
down,
OF an iris hue from a thousand gems,
That are woven in blossom o. jeweled stems,
They've rihcd the depth of Golconda's mine,
And stolen the pearls from the oceans brine;
But the rarest gem, and the finest gold,
On a brow of care lie heavy and cold.
There's a crown for the victor of lotus flow
erS,
Braided with myrtle from tropical bowers;
And the golden heaths of the nymphGa CLEAN
From their snowy hills with a mellow BEAM;
They have stripped the breast OF the sacred
Nile,
And rayished the bowers Of the vine-clad isle,
But the sweetest flower from the holy flood,
And the vine will fade on a brow of blood!
There's a crown for the poet, a wreath of bay;
A tribute of praise to his thrilling lay;
TIL amarinth twines with the laurel Dough,
And seeks a repose on his pensive brow,
THEY'VE searched in the depths of ~ltalia's
groves,
To find out a chaplet a poet loves
But a fadeless wreath in vain they have
sought,
1t withers away on the brow of thought.
There's a crown for the Christian, a crown
of life,
Gained in the issues of bloodless strife;
IT'S a halo of hope, of Joy, and Of love,
Frightened by sunbeams from fountains a.
bove-
They've gathered its rays from sources afir,
From seraphim's eyes, and Bethlehem's Star;
And the flow of its light will ever increase,
For a Christians brow is a brow of peace.

him mutter the words: "Robberl highway

him mutter the words: "Robber! highway
robbcr!'
Day light appeared; James did not go out,
he seated himself in the window to breathe
freely. 1t was already ten; but his wife had
not dared to say a word to him, 50 gloomy
and detected did he appear. From the win
d W where he sat motionless, he perceived
two men-one of whom wore a cloak with
scarlet lining! He mechanically drew bac X
into the room and ran towards the staircase.
The two strangers were already coming up.
His self-possession left him, despair was
imprinted on his features, his complexion as
sumed the lividness of death; he folded his
wife and children in his embrace, and pass
ed into a closet in the adjoining room, he
closed the door after him.
Meantime some one knocked, and James
wife saw two strangers enter. "Madam,"
said one of them, ''you are poor, ! have
brought you some assistance" "Ah sir,
heaven has sent you! Oh! yes, yes, we are
indeed poor! James! James! come here; |
told you 50; | said we should not WANT
But James answered not. His wife rushed
into the closet-nobody was there!
At the same instant frightful cries resoun-
ded in the street; a large crowd assembled
round the door, they raised a man who had
just thrown himself from the fifth story
it was the mangied and ~lileless body of
James.

Too GOOD TO BE LosT.-.4 Thanksgiving
Aory.--"Come Charles, my son." said Dea-
con Alworth, stake one of them turkeys and
carry up to parson Moody for thanksgiving.'
mo father, | don't do that again, | tell
you"
"What do I hear now, Charlesl These
five and twenty years | have sent the parson
a turkey. and Joe has carried them-and Tom
and Jerry, and you, without ever before re-
fusing. What is the matter nowl
"Why father, he never thanked me for
bringing it to him, besides he took me to do
awhile ago, because | started out of meeting
too soon.''
''Well son, you know it is the custom for
a minister to go out before any of the congre-
cation starts, this is done as a mark of re-
spert."
''Respcct or not he is nothing but a man;
and as for creeping for him | won't do it,"
"Well, let it pass, and carry him the tur-
key, and if he don't thank you | will"
Charles shouldered the fowl, and in a short
time was at the house of the minister. who
was seated in the parlor surrounded by a
number Of friends, who had come to pass
thanksgiving with him. The lad entered
without knocking; and bringing the turkey
from his shoulders heavily upon the table,

better!"
Show would you have me do t." said
Charles.
"Sit down in my chair" said the parson,
"and | will show YOU"
Charles took the chair, while the divine
took the turkey and left the room. He soon
returned-took off his hat-made a very low
bow, and said. ''Mr. Moody, here is a turkey
which my father sent you, and wishes you
to accept of it as a present."
Charles rose from his seat, and took the
turkey, and said to the minister at is a very
fine one, and | feel very grateful to your faith

ces he has contributed to my happiness. If
you will just carry it into the kitchen and re-
turn again, | will send to Mrs. Moody to

The parson walked out of the room-his
friends laughed at the joke, and made up a

GRACE DARLING OUTDoSE.-Amost inter-
esting story is told in a late German paper of
a remarkable woman Of Pillau, Prussia,
whose heroism of character certainly rises in
to the gigantic, or whose intrepidity, to say
tho least, appears to be unprecedented. This
woman of a truly generous daring, is tho
widow Of a seaman, with whom for upwards
Of twenty years, she maize long sca-vOyages;
and since his death, she has devoted her life,
for his memory's sake to the noble, and peril
Gus task of carrying aid 10 the drowning.-
Her name is Katherine Klenreldt. When
ever a storm arises whether by day or night,
she embarks in her boat, and quits the har-
Dor in search of shipwrecks. At the age of
forty-seven, she has already rescued upwards
of three hundred individuals from certain
death. The population of Pillau venerate
her as something holy, and the seamen look
upon her as their guardian angel. All heads
are uncovered as she passes along the street.
The Prusian, and several other governments
have sent her their medals of civil merit;
and the municipality of Pillau has c%onferr-
ed on her the freedom of the town. She is
described as possessing an athletic figure
and great strength, seeming to he furnished
by nature in view Of a capacity togo through
wild scenes and high deeds. Her physiog-
nomy is somewhat masculine, with the ex-
preston so!tened BY a look Of gcntleness and
goodness.

Tasso being told that he had an cpportuni-
ty of taking advantage of a very bitter enemy
Il wish not to plumber him. said he, 'but
there are things which | wish to take from
him--not his honor, his wealth, nor his life,
but his i'll ,riN.'
Lawyers find their fees in the faults of our
nature, as wood-peckcrs get the worms out of
the rotten parts Of trees.
The mistakes of a layman are like the or-
rors OF a pocket watch; but when a clergy
man errs, it is like the town clock going
wrong; it misleads a multitude.
To become eminent requires three things
nature, study, and practice.
MARRIAGE.-Of all actions of a mans life,
his marriage does least concern other people;
yet Of all actions of our life, il is most med
died with by other people.

THE DEATH BED.
ny THOMAS HOOD.

We watched her breathing through the nigh
Her breathing soft and low,
AS on her breast the wave of life
Kept heaving to and fro.
So silently we seemed to speak,
So slowly moved about,
AS we had lent her half our powers,
To exc her being out.
Our very hopes belied our fears,
Our fears our hopes belied;
We thought her dying when she slept,
And sleeping when she died.
For when the morn came dim and sad,
And chilled with early showers,
Her queit eyelids closed-she had
Another morn than ours.

TO JESUS.
BY THEODORE PARKER.

BY THEODORE PARKER.
Jesus. there is no name so dear as thine,
Which time has blazoned on his ample scroll;
No wreaths nor g%arlands ever did entwine
So fair a temple of so vast a soul;
There every angel set his triumph seal,
Wisdom combined with Strength and radiant
Grace,
In a sweet copy Heaven to reveal,
And stamp PERFECTION on a mortal face:
Once on the Earth vert thou, before mems
eyes,
That could not half thy beauteous brightness
see,
Fen as the emmett cannot read the skies,
Nor our weak orbs look through immensely;
Once on the earth vert thou-a living shrine,
Wherein combining dwelt-the Coon, the
Lovely, the DIVINE.
Dear Jesus, were thy spirit now on Earth.
Where thou hast prayed and toiled 4 world
What vast ideas would sudden rise to birth,
What strong endeavors 'gainst o'ermastering
Sin!
Thy best beatitudes again thou'dst speak;
But with deep-hearted words that scorch like
WOuldst thou rebuke the oppressors of the
weak;
Or, turning thence to Prophets that aspire,
How wouldst thou cheer the men who toll
to save
Their Brothers smarting meath a despot's
rod,
To lift the Poor, the Fallen, and the Slave,
And lead them all alive TO worship God
Bigots wouldst thou rebuke, that idle stand,
But send thy Gospel-fraught Apostles con-
quering through the land.
