Battle often-three times week-every

have clear head, sweet stomach, a
cheerful disposition; put your carcasses
under the water every day, and when you

The Christian idea of Women

Rev. w. II. Milburn, Chaplin Of the q.
8. House Of Representatives., delivered AN
eloquent discourse last evening. in the
Sands Street Methodist Church, Brooklyn,
on the "Christian Idea Of Womensp He
spoke Of the position occupied by women
under the, old Jewish dispensation; Of fhs
place awarded her in cultured Greece and
martial Rome, and said that there they
were but mere playthings or dradges Of
man. He drew strong picture Of the
fair but frail Aspasia. who, by the combin-
ed charms Of her manners and convsrsa.
tion, completely won the affections Of the
great Pericles. But though Aspasia was
the most beautiful and accomplished Of
Athenian women, and acquired for herself
great renown, and was finally made .
Hpriestess Of Diana Of Ecbatana, yet was
she nothing more nor less than brillient
courtezan. The speaker also alluded to-
Sappho; but she, too, fell far short Of his
idea Of the true woman. Il was not till the
dawn Of Christianity that womsn's infu-
ence WAS justly recognized and made
available. In speaking Of woman 9 props

nently by her nature, by her physical and
moral conformation. is she made, for home.

on Alioe's awe struck ear brought deep

sound of some large ship careering swiftly

she cried. with one piercing shrek; then
burying her face in ber hands. her whole
soul was absorbed in the one suppllca.
ton, that she might not see anything su.
pernatural. She had no doubt Of the Ia /.
ture OF that fearful visitation; she felt her
brain reel under the weight Of the horror
and misery which had fallen upon her in
one overwhelming blow; and she felt that
she could bear no more. That wild cry
had summoned others to her assistance;
they found her insensible, and it was long
before she recovered from her deathlike
iainting. When her returning strength

know it; but we shall no, be parted long"
For awhile her mother strove to com.
bat the impression. and tried to induce her
to regard it as a fearful dream-bu; to no
purposes; and few days afterwards came
the dreaded intelligence of the total de-
struction Of the ship Fair Alice and her
crew by fire. on the same hour Of the same
night so indelibly imprinted on Alice's
heart She never entirely recovered from
the effects of that awful night Calm and
gentle as ever. her face paler and thinner;
but her great fear was still lest she should
repine undeS the trial which had been sent
her. and she strove more and more to ex
ert herself for the sake of her mother, but
her strength was not eqoaIto her will.
At her dying request, an alteration was
made in the portrait left her by Edward
before his departure on the fatal voyage.
A small miniature OF herself was placed
in his hand; and the Fair Alice. in the
distance was half shrouded in smoke.
through which the red tongues of flame
rose high agains, the sky.
Such is the legend of the "Altered Pic

dread. as if that burning ship. and that
lovely face. with its melancholy eyes. had

EARLY SCENES.


Early scenes-how sweet their memory
Where in childhood we have played;
Craggy steep and ragged mountain,
d Fairy glen and peaceful glade.
Early scenes-,he gushing fountain,
And the cottage in the vale
Flowers a.sister's hand have planted,
Breathing odors to the gale.
EARLY scenes-the weeping willow.
Aged elm and lowering pine
Sturdy oak and creeping IVY -
Where the woodbine loves to twine.
Early scenes-the village school-house- :
Obi that old familiar spot,
Wakessa thousand tender feelings,
WhiGh csn never be forgot.
EArly scenes-the village church.yard,
Where the friends we love repose-
There the lonely star OF midnight,
Silently lis lustre throws.
Early scenes-how Oft remembered,
When in distant lands we roam
How the Strangers heaving bosom
Siehs TO view his childhood 50 dome.
