One sits at home, with pale. impassiye brow,
Bent on the eloquene CT lifeless letters,
Noting man S thoughts from Mino's first dawn,
till now,
When Truth scems, Heaven inspired, to
Lurst her fetters,
Another plies the force OF gtaIwart limbs,
And keen wit sharpened by the whirl of
action;
For midnight lore no studious lamp he trims.
0ur:ained and muf1ed from the worlds dis
traction.
Two destinies-conyerging the end,
The glorious issue Of all human labor;
Where in harmonious uniot softly blend
The praise OF God-the ITofs of cur neigh
hor-
Each has his gift-the stamp affixed at birth,
That marks him for the servant Of Master;
The chosen steward Of His realm OF Earth
TIE shepherd watching for higher pastor
Each has his crowr-of earthly here,
Gathered and woven by the hand Of mortals:
And when the Spirit City's towers appear,
Dropped en- his brow BY angels at its por-
tails.
Judge not which serves his mighty Master best.
Iaply thou nlighte5t be true worth's detrao-
tor;
For each obeys his nature's high behest,-
The close pent thinker and the busy actor.

The Revolution in China.

The latest account, says the Pres
byterian, advises US of The continued
success of the Revolutionary party
ia China. The pres sent advices
confirm the previous reports of their
hostility to Psganis m. II is stated
that the Roman Catholic missiona-
ries in China look upon them as
Professionals, and as worthy of con-
demnation. In an accountIof the late
visit Of Sir George Bonha m to Nan
kin, he states, that a sin ular indi-
cation wasseen Of ihe sudden change
effected in the religious opinions Of
the Chihese,fo the river was strew ;
cd With the fl Eating fragments
81 WOODEN idols, like the figure
heads of a ship scatter ed from a
wreck. The Revolution airy party
are distinguished from the adherents
of the Imperial party BY the purity
of heir morals and their love of
foreigners. The result no one c an
anticipate; bat even t be- prospect OF
SO immense a region and such
teeming hordes of population, being
thrown open to the influence of
Christianity and civilization, calls
up feelings of no ordinary interest
and intensity.
The New York Evening Post,
abiding to the revolutionary move
ment in China, says: "Ihe
consequence Of this revolut lion, il
successful. we can hardly estimate;
they will not only affect the three
hundred millions Of the Chinese
population, but largely influence the
trade and politics Of the world
Should the new government. as II
is predicted, prove friendly TO for
eigners, and open the trade of the
country to the CONNIE rec Of Eng
land and the United States, an i'm
pulse W i'll be given to commercial
affairs hardly paralleled sin ce The

There is one invention exhibited
at the New York Crystal Palace
which is real blessing for mothers
and nurses. This is Edmond's pat
ent Neurological Cradle, or Mothq RS
Help. This cradle moves upon the
principle of pendulum of a clock;
in fact, it is wound up by clock
work, and will work for twenty-four
hours without any one going near it
The article is patented, and sells at
various prices, from six to hundr ed
dollars. Instead Of winding up a
clock, the master of a family co n
tents himself with winding up a era

! Breakers Ahead,

Many circumstances lndlcafe IDat
the country is in a condition very
similar to that which preceded the
great commercial crisis Of 1886.
The credit system has been extend
ed to its utmost limit Of tension, con-
-sisten t with the safety Of the bust
ness interests Of the cou ntry. Banks
have multiplied, and paper money
has been manufactured by them to
an extent which has seldom before
been equalled, stimulating the com
munity to an unnatural expansion of
hts business, encouraging speculation,
and increasing prices beyond a
healthy and permanent Standard T.
The Indebtedness Of the country ex-
ceed6 all former precedent We find
i'm one of our exchanges the foil pw-
ing statement of the debts now owed
by the General Government, and by
States, citiesand individuals:
National debt, j.. S65, 1862
State debts ..I...... 2O2, 357!692
Municipal debts. ...... = -. 100000
RailroaIl debts 5O000DOO
Mercantile foreign debts, H.. III. 100000 900
Private domestic debts .939000DOO
Aggregate. ...... j. 81 ,667 ,d89, f54
This enormous amount of indebt-
edness may well alarm the moderate
and prudent man Of business. The
industry Of The country cannot long
bear this heavy load Of debt, and
consequently an explosion must be
the result. The enterprise Of The
country is greatly in advance Of its
means, and is clearly shown by the
vast number of borrowers in the ar
IIet in the shape Of Railroad agents,
md projectors of Iall kinds. 1t be-
looves the business man to take in
sail ana prepare for the coming storm.
ATT present all is sunshine, apparent
y, but a dark cloud is gathering be-
ow the horizon, which will soon rise
md burst upon US. The weary and
