Trust In God.

One evening ia summer, a carriage drove up
to village inn. A stranger stepped out and
directed tho landlord to prepare him supper,
aud also to feed his horse.-Tbe last rays of
the setting sun were visible on the Aeecy clouds.
and on the vaDo of an antvuated church, which
stood on the opposite side of the way. The
stranger looked about him for few moments
and then directed his steps to tho church. that
he might mediate while the landlord was full
filing his directions.
He entered tho gate which opened into the
grave yard, and walking around, he viewed the
grassy beds, beneath which tho sons of other
years lay silently resisting from want, and toll.
and pain. While no was reading the various
inscriptions on the tombstones, his attention
was drawn to corner of the yard by the sobs
of child. He went Immediately to the spot,
where two ragged children sat, weeping upon
a newly made grave. A piece of hard bread
was between them. The stranger, being SEN
sbe TO the sorrow Of others, sat down upon
tho grave, and inquired into tho cause of their
distress. The little boy. whose name was
Henry, began to toll him that his sister Mary
was naughty, and would not eat the piece OF
bread which ho had begged for her She in
terupted her brother here. and told the man
that she had some bread yesterday, but her
brother had eaten mono since the day before,
and she wanted him to eat this.
The boy then proceeded TO tell the stranger
that about year ago his father left tho village
and went to sea, and that in o storm he was
drowned. sand poor mother cried SO hard.
and said that she must soon dio too; but that
we must love each other. and God would be
our Father. She called US to her bedside
kissed both, and then died. Now we have no
mother; but we have come to her grave TO see
if we can find our Father. Mother said he
was in heaven Can you tell US, sir, where our
heavenly Father can be found.r'
The stranger listened to the tale Of sorrow
until his eyes were filled with tears, and he was
moved with compassion for the wanderers
He exclaimed, as he rose from the grave,
Come with me. my chilren. God will be your
Father. He has, no doubt, sent me here this
night to befriend you"
He took them to tho ion, and had them pro-
vded for until he returned home. Then they
were received into the bosom of his family.
where they wero well fed. clothed, and instruct
ed and the stranger, in his declining years,
witnessed them useful and pious members of
society. His hospitality was rewarded en-
hundredfold.
Let all the children who may hear about
Henry and Mary, put their trust in God, and
he will raise up friends for them when their
fathers and mothers die. Let parents instruct
their children in tho knowledge of Christ, that
when death shall make them orphans, they may
find q Father in heaven. - Presbvterian.

Washington, Feb. l6.
The House had tusrel to day on the Mile
age. IL is grim specter, which they would
ike TO exercise But it seems not likely to
down at their bidding. Mr.. Marshal of Cali
forna, who stands six feet in his stockings, Ia
brother of Tom Marsha) and who has not boen
shaved since he started for the digging, made
striking effort in defence OF his $4,000 mile
age. Ills arguments were quite as unique ~
his peron oil appearance. He declared that the
cost of his electioneering campaign was quite
enough to absorb the whole of his mileage.--,
And he went on to enumerate the items such,
as mulo feed. which he reckone1 at S5 day
whiskey at so cents "drink' that
he had sometimes to treat hundred at lick;
and SO on. He also demanded of the House
that no reduction of his mileage should take ,
place as the expenses of triumphant organ
iza,ion of the .'Democratic party" were very
great and ought 10 be considered by the major
ity Of that body. a lgasd ls1ss oIn
Thaddeus Stevens remarked here in an un-
dertone, that the charge for drinks ought to
be allowed. for it was impossible to organize
the Democratic party without whiskey. Mr..
Marshal added, however. that no went to Cali
fornia on high mission" and that he totally
disrerarded filthy lucre. He Informed the
House that he was lawyer, and had received
as much for two hours plea as other lawyers
of the House had received for a whole years
service. Ilo had thus learned to disregard
gold. In fact he had been lucky, and had 8
made his "pile." But he had another new idek
about mileage. lie thought the expenses Of
going to California for the purpose Of coming
back as member, ought to De covered by
mileage. He remarked that il cost him nine
months time to go there, and three months to
be elected. beside the drinks" Now for
man who values his efforts as high as Mr..
Marshall seems toby the charge he makes
for his forensic displays, it would be small bns-
mess, indeed, indeed, to receive less than @4,.a
600 mileage. On the whole. the remarks OF
the honorable member displayed a degree OF
smartness. of vanity. and concei,, that rendered
his 6rst appearance quite piquant entertain
