INTERESTING LITTLE TlLE.
THE ELEVENTH. CoMz1AmDMEDsg 2

T. S. Arthur tells a good story about a loving
couple in New Jersey, who belong TO the Meth
dist church. A new presiding elder, MIR. n,
was expected in that district and as the min
listers all stopped with brother W. and his wife,
every preparation was Hsade 10 give him cor
dial reception. The honest couple thought that
religion, in part, consisted in making some pa
rade, and therefore the paTlor was pot in order,
nice FIRE was made, and the kitchen repIpnish-
ed with cake, chickens, and every delicacy,
preparatory to cooking.
While Mr.. W. was out at his wood pile, a
plain looking, coarSelv dressed, but qurt-like
pedestrian came along and inquired the distance
to the next tnwn. He was told that ii was
three miles. Being very cold, he asked per-
mission to enter and warm himself. Assent
was given very grudgingiY, and both went in
10 the kitchen. The wife looks daGgerS at this
untmely intrusion. the stranger had on cow
hide boots, an old hat, and threadbare, but
neatly patched coat. At length she gave him
chair beside the Dutch oven which was bak-
ing nice cakes for the presiding elder, who was
momentarllg expected, as he was to preach the
next day at the church mile or tive beyond.
The stranger, after warming himself, prepar-
ed TO leave, but the weather became more in-
clement, and as bis appetite was reused by the
vlands about the fire be asked for some little
Tefreshment ere he set ont for cold walk to
the town beyond. Mrs. W. was dispieased, but
on consultation with her husband, some cold ha-
con and bread were set on an old table, and he
was then somewhat grutily told to eat Ii was
growing dark, and hints were thrown out that
the stranger had better depart, as it was three
long miles 10 town. The wife grew petulent
as the new preacher did not arrive, and her
husband sat whistIing the air of ''Aud Lang
SyRes" while he thought OF the words of the
hymn-E'When can read my title clear, and
irt as if he could order the stranger off without
any further ado.
The homely meal was at last concluded-the
man thanked him kindly for the hospitality he
had received, and opened the door to CO. But
1t was quite dark, and the clouds denotng a
storm filled the heavens.
''You say it is fnl three miles to D."
81 do" said Mr.. w. coidy ~ said so
when you first stopped, and you ought 10 have
pushed on, like a prudent man. You could
have reached there before it was quite dark"
''But was cold and hungry, and might have
tainted by the way"

AUTUMNaL MUSINGS.
BY MARY MORRISON.


Nature's scenes are ever changing,
As the restless ocean wave;
Now adorning, now deraaging,
Forming beauty for grave.
Man exults in hope, then grieving,
Finds his hopes ruin made;
So beanteous morn and MONDAY bright ming,
Soon decline in deep'ning shade.
Spring IS fresh with life and gladness,
Fragrant flowers aud balmy air;
Now fond hope dispeiling sadness,
Views Earth robed IN verdure fair.
Summer comes with glowing brightness
Golden harvests-sylvan shades;
Confidence in her uPrshtness-
Now iorgets-Earth--beau fades.
Autumn rich in fruits and treasures,
Calm in modest homely grace;
Storing goods for winter leisure,
Greets humility and peace.
Fall has still vernal feature
Beauteous flowers while leaves are dry;
So Hope, DER weeping nature,
Views the rainbow in the sky.
Faith discerns through winters sadness,
Beauty shining through decay;
Confident she breathes in gladness-
"Night foretells coming day"
Thus to Reason Natures lesson
Taught as by eternal love;
Proves all change is hidden blessing,
Leading rs to God above.

The Hour Of Prayer.

Ny God, is any hour 50 sweet,
From blush OF morn to evening star,
As that which calls me to thy feet
The hour ofPFayer!
Blest be that tranquil hpnF Of morn,
And bfe>t that5soiemn hoeT of eve,
When on the wings OF faith apborne
The world leave
For then day spring shines on nae,
Brighter than morn's e'heria glow
And richer dews descend from thee
Than earth ca4fsRfcsas
Then is my strength by thee renewed;
Then are nay sins by thee forgiven;
Thea dost thou cheer my solitude
With hopes of heaven.
Words cannot tell what sweet relief
Here for my every want find,
What strength for warfare, balm for grief,
What peace of mind.
flushed is each doubt. gone every fear,
My spirit seems in hPaveu to stay,
And e'en the penitentlai tear
Is wiped away.

tones Of the preacher filled the crowded room

Brother w. had bent forward to listen, but
now be had sunk back in his sral. This was
the Eleventh Commandment
The sermon was deep, searching, yet afFec-

nothing that could in The least wound the broth
and sister, of whose hospitality he had partak-
en-, but hr said much that smote upon their
hearts, and made them painfully conscious that
they had rot shown as much kindness to the
stranger as he had been entitled TO receive on
the bread principle of humanity. But they saf-
E1ered most from modification of feeling-
To think that they treated the Presiding Elder
Of the district after such fashion was deeply
Illuminating; and the idea oi the whole affair
getting abroad, interferrd sadly with their de-
eotonal feelings throughout the whole period of
service.
At last the sermon was over, the ordinance
administered, and the bpnrdiction pronounced
Brother w. did not know what it was best for

life. Then Mr.. n. descended from the pulpit,

shook hands with him, but still he fingered and

"Whese is brother w ~ he at length heard

ElGRDIR AND SUICIDE.

A shocking affair, by which man and Wifi,
named Smith, were sent into e;-rnty, occurred
in the village of New Windsor, about four
miles from NewEurg. on Saturday night last
The husband had been for some time in de-
pressed state Of mind, and finally wound mp his
earthly career by numbering his wife, and then
taking bis own ilir. TIE first that was known
cf the occurrence was or Sunday morning
when some Of the neighboIs entered the dwell
ing and found the wife dead in her bed and the
IifteSS form of the husband !virg in pool Of
blood on the floor. with his throat cut from ear
to ear. But the Srangest feature in the sad
affair is that the body OF be womau bore not the
slightest mark OF violence, and appeared as
though She had fallen asleep in death aud
what adds still more to the mystery is the fact
that the nelgh5orS We're in the hoase the even
ing previous, and found them both in their uSu-
al health. The persons who cailed upon them
state that Smith was unusually rude in manner,
and very bIaSphemouS, and upon his wlfe'S up
braidiag him, and telling him that she did not
think his conduct proper preparation for the
sabbath, he remarked that she need not worry
herself about that, as neither OF them would
ever spend another Sabbath in this world. As
il was his habit 10 make reckless Spreches, moth
ing serious was thought of this expression, but
