A Well-drawn Likeness.

We give below an extract from discourse
on Worldly Ambition, from volume of sermons
by arch deacon Manning, published in London
in the year 1913. Our readers can apply it to
tohomSoeUer 1t may concern.
" How few men, with the bats of power, ee-
vation, applause, before them, can resist the
allurement Of indirect means, such as comprom-
ses, abandonment of pledges or obligations, and
the like 1t is a melancholy and most instruct
i've fact that there is hardly one of the worlds
great men in whose private history there is not
to be found some sitting of conscience, some
departure from recttude, stern fidelity, and de-
termined abiding by truth and right, in the teeth
of danger, or at the cost of failure in their ru-
ing passion. In the earnestness with which they
seek their aim, they grow precifitate, unscrupu-
lous, reckless, obdurate; and that in proportion
as the end nears, and the strife thickens, and
success or failure are in the crisis. One last
step, the last act which secures the desires Of
life, is often one that henceforward makes life

the point is won. But at what a cost? At the
price of their hearts faith in the power of truth
and right. They have in some way struck a
bargain, or chartered with lie, and put their
trust for success in u falsehood, which if it be
anything, is an unclean spirit. They have with
drawn their faith from the supremacy of right
eousness, they have forsaken the cause of truth
and goodness, because these appeared to be des-
pissed, disarmed, and exiled, because the world
seemed too strong for them, and because the
dictates of faith and truth pointed to paths that
seemed to lead away from the desired end,--
And yet, if wrong and fasehood can at all bring
success, by whose strength do they prevail p
Who is he that works by them in the world, but
the same that said, All these things will give
thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me ?"

A Cure for Neuralgia,

Of Importance to communicate to our readers
Neuralgia affections are, of all others, the most
imperylous to the art of medicine. NJ. Desterne,
profoundly convinced of the science in those af-
tections, so common and so terrible, has devoted
himself zealously to researches upon the physio-
logical action Of the nervous system. Taking for
the starting point in his researches the remarkable
results of thee ure of Neuralgia by the cauteriza-
ton of the "helix," he has discovered a method
of curing instantaneously, and without disturb
ing any organ, all Neuralgic affections of the
head, attacks of mogrim, and pains resulting
from teeth in an advanced state Of decay
What renders this discovery truly marvellous, is
the promptness at once of the cure, and its per-
feet success in more than two hundred cases
which have presented themselves since the POD
of December, last, the date of the first expert

The Partial Cat.

The story of "The Religious Dog" in the
Congregationalist of September 9th, brought
to my remembrance a scarcely less remarkable
cat, that recently beloged to an aunt of mine,
from whose lips had the following, and many
other interesting details.
Puss at one time, had very interesting family
Of kittens. They were all bright and active, but
one of them was observed to have greater re-
semblance to its mother than the rest, and was
indeed the prettiest kitten of the whole, and the
mother showed peculiar attachment to it. A
neighbor begged one of my aunt-and being al
lowed her choice, selected this favorite and car
ried it home. All this occurred in the absence
of the feline mother, who, on her return, evident
ly observed with concern the absence of her
pet. She Immediately commenced searching
the house and out buildings, and when satisfied
that it was not on the premises, she instituted
similar search through the neighborhood. Hav
ing explored the premises Of all the near neigh
bors, she at length entered the last house in the
village, where she found the object Of her long
and persevering pursuit. She caressed it with
every manifestation ofmaterlal fondness and de-
light fed it, and then much to the surprise Of
the lady of the house, departed, leaving the kit
ten behind. She was not, however, long abb
sent. In few hours she returned, bringing one
of her other kittens in her mouth, which she
placed on the floor beside the newly found
All thought the lady-so am to have the
mother and all the progeny quartered upon me.
This, however, was not the intention of the cat,
for after caressing the kitten she had just
brought, for few moments, she took the other
in her mouth and carried it to its former home
and never afterwards visited the one she had
given in exchange for t.-COngregatiOnaIiSt

The Criminals Tribute to Virtue

The Criminals Tribute to Virtue.
The following touching letter left in his cell,
for his wife and children, by One Eyed Ihomp
son, the notorious felon who lately committed
suicide in prison, in New York, is a more torce'
full tribute to virtue than half the sermons ever
published.-ED.
NV last act may appear seIfsh-to leave you
alone to fight your way through rude world );
bnt it is not SOL know and feel that ultimately
it will be to your advantage. Love is strength,
and the power of kindness most efficient. With
thrust for cut have fought the world, and been
a loser even when victorious. My judgement
has been at fault, and my philosophy erroneous.
II was the fault of my organization and educa'
ton; your nature is fortunately different--it is
mild and affectonate. You conclliate and make
friends of all who approach you and when the
dragon is out of the way, friends will not fear to
prove themselves so.
The little of happiness that have known, |
owe to you. In your presence alone have |
found life endurahle. My offences against you
will not ask you to forgive and foget-you
have done so.
Our children, my boys, hear the words and
heed the advice Of dying father-be careful
of your mother; obey and be directed by her.
NV sweet Rebecca, make your mother your
model. My children all, remember that have
used every effort 10 instll into your minds a
love of truth-that, no matter how the world es'
Inmates me, you know me to be an afectionate
and careful father. TO you have neveruttered
an untruth, and if you prove worthy of the care
have bestowed upon you, have not lived II
vain. Love one another. have never allowed

Extraordinary Somnambulism.

Last week respectable young man IA clerk
in an Office at st, Helen's) rose from his bed at
six o'clock, and, after Ottiring himself in his
Sunday clothing, he left the house, and proceed
ed through the town to Southport, twenty-five
miles, by way of Rainford and Ormskirk and
not till five o'clock in the afternoon did he awake
when he found himself fjolting among the sandhils
of the village. After some inquiries as to his
whereabouts, he Immediately started back to
walk home again, where he arrived about one O
clock next morning, not little fatigued, and with
out breaking his fast, for the best of all reasons,
he having, when changing his garments in the
morning, omitted to transfer S., which were in
the pockets of the clothes he daily wore.-Liuer-

A Relic.

A gentleman Of Mobile, Ala has ring which
was thrown up by party Of laborcrs who were
excavating, few months ago, a piece Of ground
at Coosada, Antauga county. 1t is said to be
composed of light metal, SO hard that no i'm.
preston could be made upon it by cutting. 1t
is massive, shaped like ordinary rings, worn by
gentlemen, and instead Of a stone set, it has a
dattened square surface, on which is engraved
a skull and cross bones. 1t was found buried
l2 or IA feet under ground and is supposed to
have belonged to one of De Soto's party during
their wanderings in those regions in 1888 and
1889.

New Application of the Daguer-
reotype.

Mr.. Hiram Hayden, an ingenious artist of
this village, has shown us three landscape views
taken by the usual Daguerrean apparatus upon
a white paper surface, all at one operation,-
This is the first successful attempt to produce a
positive picture by this extraordinary medium.
The pictures exhibit the effect of light and shade,
similar to fine engraving, bringing out the
utmost minutia, with the fidelity of the ordinary
Daguerreotype For many purposes this i'm
provement will be of great Importance as it will
enable the operator to produce views and por-
traits of any size that may be required and at
a cheap rate. We understand that Mr. Hayden
has made application to secure patent upon
the mode of preparing the paper previous to its

Education of Idiots.

We think we have stated sometime the past
year, that school for this supposed HOPELESS
class of our race, had been established at Bos-
ton. Some of the results of this ntersting ex-
pertinent, may be gathered from the following
article in the Commonwealth of late date.-ED.
The Massachusetts House of Representatives
was crowded by members of the Legislature
and others, to hear the lecture of DR.. HOWE
upon training and instructing Idiots. The sub
ect of the lecture was well illustrated by the
exhibition of three children upon the platform,
who, under the direction of their teacher, Mr.
Richards, gave good evidence Of what can be
accomplished by patience and perseverance for
this class of unfortunates The children were
from seven to ten years of age-have been in
the school about two years-and the least intel
ligent managed to spell some words which would
be difficult for children of much greater capaci'
ties. The larger hoy had head not unlike the
Aztec boy on exhibition in Boston some time
since.
