Her mother smiled, then sighed, and ssiG,
This is her happcst timc.'
Beneath spreading oldcn oak,
tiny house was made
The babe, now eight year. old or moro,
Within its shadows played
Each broken toy of earlier years
Was safely treasured there,
And with ideal friends she played.
Then, with childish care,
Her mimic house she spread with moss,
Ana shadored o'er with yine,-
An old man passing, paused and 'aid.

A maiden at her mirror stood.
Dressing her sunny hair
The rose was blushing on her check,
Her brow was passing fair
happy light danced In her eye
The light Of love l ween,
The babe, the child, had now the grace
OF beautiful sixteen
And while she warblsd joyou.ly
From morn till ve.per chime,
An old dame listening, murmurod low.
This is her happiest time"
She stood before the altar,
With her chosen by her side,
A holy light CLEANED in her eye
Love, blent with trust and pride
Life ne 'er to her was fair as now,
Earth never seemed so gay
Love strcwed her path with glorious flowers,
Hope lurcd her on her way
She seemed an angel spirit, sent

MEcHAEIcs.-St Paul was a 1"echanc- q
maker of tents from goats hair; and. in the lec-
turers opinion, he was model mechanic. He
was not only thorough workman at his trade,
but was scholar-a perfect master, not only of
his native Hebrew, but of three foreign tongues,
a knowledge of which he obtained by close ap-
plcatiou to study during his leisure hours while
serving his apprenticeship. 1t was a custom
among the Jews to learn their sons some trade
a custom not confined to the poor classes, but
was also practised by the wealthy; and it was
common proverb among them, that if father
did not teach his son mechanical occupation
he taught him to steal. This custom was wise
one and if the fathers of the present dav would
initiate their example, their wrinkled cheeks
would not so often blush for the helplessness,
and not unfrequenly criminal conduct of their
offspring. Even if father intended bis son for
one of the professions it would be an incalcula-
BILE benefit to that son TO instruct him in some
branch of mechanism. His education would
not only be more complete and healthy but he
might at some future lime, in case of failure in
his profession, find his trade very convenient as
means of earning lis bread; and be must ne
cessarlly be more competent In mechanical
from his professional education. An educated
mechanic was model machine. while an uned-
ucaied mechanic was merely mechanic work.

look upon mechanism as degrading to him who

The BouNrY LAND AcT AND ITS OPERATIor.-
The Washington Union warmly rebuts the state
ment that under the Bounty Act of the last Con-
gress, two hundred millions of acres of the pub
lie domain will be disposed of. The writer
also states that after consulting the most reliable
information placed at his disposal by the Com
missioner OF Pensions, he feels satisfied that not
more than thiriysix millions of acres of the pub
lie land will be called for under the provisions
OF the late act-leaying still to the country the
enormous residue of oyer one thousand millions
OF acres.
1t gives an approximate table of the probable
number OF applications. and estimates that there
will be 10000 applications for 80 acres each,
l25.000 for 120 acres, and l0t 900 other appli-
cants under the various provisions of the act
making total Of 285,O00 applicants for the d.
vision Of 81, 300, 900 acres of land. Applications
are pouring into the Pension office in over
whelming numbers there being in one week

Anti Malaria Pills.

A SURE AND SAFE CURE FOR REMIT
n tent and Iptermittent Fevers, and also a
most eEectual cure for all the secondary dis
eases accompanying these fevers, such as Liver
Complaint, Neuralgia, Indigestion, and Enlarge
ment Of the Spleen, or Ague Cake. For inter-
mittent Fever or Fever and Ague, these pills
are undoubtedly the most etfectual and safe rem
edy in the known world. They may be taken
at any Stage of the disease, as we'll in the cold
stage as in the hot. These pills not only stop
the Cbiils and Fever, but they remove from the
system all secondary affections which remain
after the use Of other remedies, to reproduce
the disease again. In this respect we claim
superiority over every other remedy which has
been offered to the public. There is paper
round each box. under the label, containing
short history of the causes of the fevers of this
country. and the effects and operation of the
remedy which we propose. These pills are

ton with one of the Asst gnees of Adams & Co.,
we learn that although it had been the intention
Of the gentlemen elected, to publish a statement
of the house long before this they found it utterly
impossible to do SO. Every means of information
has been debarred them by the action OF the
courts throughout the State. not single one of
which has recognized the authority of the Fourth
District Court in this City, and the Assignees of
the house have not only been unable to obtain
possession of the assets of the concern. but have
even been denied access to the sources of nfor-

case will be carried to the Supreme Court at the
