Picture Of the Red Sea.

Hogarth was once applied to by mlserly
old nobleman, to paint on his staircase rep
resentation OF the destruction or rharUai's >
hosts in the Red Sea. In attempting to tix
upon the price, Hogarth became quite dissat-
isfied. The miser was unwilling to give
more than one-half of the real value of the
picture. At last, Hogarth, out of all patience,
agreed to his patrons terms.
Within day or two the picture was ready.
The nobIeman was surprised at the exPedl-
ton, and Immediately called to examine it.
The canvas was painted all over red.
'Zounds = said the purchaser, 'what have
YOU here! l ordered a scene of the Red
Sea-
The Red Sea you have said Hogarth,
still smarting to have his talents undervalued-
But where are the IsraelitesP
They have all gone over.

by the haste with which he paid his BILL

Bless God for Rain.

"Bless God for rain," the good man said,
And wiped away grateful tear;
That We may have our daily bread,
He drops tear upon us here.
Our Father, Thou who dwell'st in Heaven,
We thank thee for the Pearly shower;
The blessed present thou hast given.
To man and beast, and bird and flower.
The dusty earth, with lips apart,
looked up where rolled an orb of fame,
AS though prayer came from its heart
For rain to come and 10 it came.
The Indian Corn with silken plume.
And flowers with tiny pitchers filed
Send up their praise ofsweet perfume
For precious drops the clouds distilieu.

isfaction with the performances of the moon at
B, declaring that there had been no
moonlight now for a week, while in New York
the moon shone brightly eUery night. We
had the story from two ladies present on the
occasion, women Of high order of integrity
and intelligence, who assured us that this
Young lady from the city Of perpetual moon
