On hearing this, fastened home, and
informed my wife that had taken the
wrong medicine with me to the sick fam
lily. | then prescribed a gallon Of milk
and two loaves of bread, some butter,
meat and potatoes, and sent my boy with
these, and had the pleasure to hear in a
few days that they were all well.
The principle of justice manifested in
those children delighted my soul, and was
a rich reward for all my labor. o, how
good and how pleasant it is for brethren
to dwell together in unity and love! To
see them in time Of distress and starvation
so just and liberal as to give to each one
his full share of a roasted potato, was a
pleasant sight. o, the sweet words, "You
shall have the biggest piece now, because
had the biggest piece before" May
every child embrace this just and loving
principle. [N. Y. Cabinet.

Filial Devotion and its Reward.

An old rag picker died in Paris, in a
state Of the most abject poverty. His on
ly relation was ncicc, who lived as SER
want with greengrocer. The girl always
assisted her uncle as far as her slender
means would permit. When she learned
of his death, which took place suddenly,
she was upon the point of marriage with
n journeyman baker, to whom she had
been long attached. The nuptual day
was fixed, but Susette had not yet bought
her wedding clothes. She fastened TO
tell her lover that their marriage must be
deferred, as she wanted the price of her
bridal finery to lay her uuclc decently in
the grave. Her mistress ridiculcd the
idea, and eXhortcd her to leave the old
man to be buried 10y charity. Susette re-
fused. The consequence was quarrel,
in which the young woman lost Mt once
her place and her lover. who sided with
her mistress. She hastened to the miser.

and by the sacrifice not only of the saw
ings for her Wedding attire, but of all her
slender wardrobe, she had the old man
decently inferred. Her pious task fulfill

Of the animal that he determined that

grant oveliness of flowers; the song Of
birds, the hum Of bees; the sounds Of
ocean; the rustic Of the summer wind,
heard at evening in the pine tops; in the
cool running brooks; in the majestic sweep
Of undulating hills; the granducr of un-
tamed forests; the majesty of the noun,
tain; in the mornings virgin beauty; in
the maternal grace of evening, and the
sublime and mystic pomp of night. Ma
ture's silent sympathy-how beautiful
it is.
There is JOY, no doubt there is Joy, to
the mind of Genius, when thought bursts
on him as the tropic sun rending cloud;
when long trains of ideas sweep through
his soul, ike consolidated orbs before an
angels eye; when sublime thoughts and
burning words rush to the heart; when
Nature unveils her secret truth, and some
great Law breaks, all at once, upon n
Newton's mind, and chaos ends in light :;
when the hour Of his inspiration and the
JOY Of his genius is on him, tits then that
this child of Heaven feels a godIike le-
light 'Tis sympathy witt. Truth.
There is higher and more tranquil
bliss, when heart comnunes with heart |;
when two souls unite in one, like minging
dew drops on rose, that scarcely touch
the flower, mirror the heavens in ther lit
tie ofbs; when perfect love transforms two
souls, either mans or woman's, each to
the others image; when one heart beats
in two bosoms; one spirit speaks with a
divided tongue when the same soul is
eloquent in mutual eyes-there is rap
turc deep, serene, heartfelt and abiding
in this mysterious fellow-feeing with
congcnial soul, which puts to shame the
old sympathy OF Nature, and the cxtatic
but short,l lived bliss Of Genius in his high
and burning hour.
But the welfare Of Religion is more
than each or all Of these. The glad reli-
ance that comes upon the man; the sense
of trust; rest with God the souls ex-
ceeding peace; the universal harmony
the infinite within, sympathy with the
Soul Of all--is bliss that words cannot
portray. He only knows, who feels.--
The speech of a prophet cannot tell the
tale. No, not if soraph touched his lips
with fire. In the high hour of religious
visitation from the living God, there seems
to be no separate thought; the tide Of
universal life sets through the soul The
thought of self is gone. 1t is little acci-
dent to be a king or crown, parent or
n child. Man is at one with God, and He
is All in All. Neither the lovcliness of
Nature; neither the JOY Of Genius, nor
the sweet breathing of congenial hearts,
that make delicious music as they beat,
neither one nor all of these can equal
the joy of the religious soul that is at one
with God, so full of peace that prayer is
needless.

least twenty per cent, by this operation,
and when the opportunity offered he
made the same saving in other matters.
Al the end Of that quarter Charles Mat

paid his house rent, and then he found
that he had thirty five dollars left in his
pocket. This was all his-he did not owe
penny of it.
"Ah, Hannah" he said, as he held the
money in his hand and looked at it, "now
see how easy it is for Il man to be wrong
and his wife right. This money all comes
otpaying as go along. 1t is very easy
and simple to say" just charge it," and
man can easily buy things under such
circumstances, but when the day Of reck-
oning comes, these the simple words that
sound so innocent when spoken, are found
to be costly things. Iwouldnot have be.

The SECOND BABY.-Belwee the first
baby and the second baby what falling
off is there, my countrywomen Not in
intrinsic value, fol the second may chance
to be "as pretty piece Of flesh as any !"
but in the imaginary value with Which it
is invested by its nearest kin and more
distant female belongings. The coming
of the first baby in a household creates an
immense sensation; that of the second is
comparatively common place affair. The
first baby is looked for with anxiety, nurs-
ed with devotion, admired with enthusi-
asm, dressed with splendor, and made TO
live upon system. Baby number two Is
not longed for by any one, except, perhaps
the mother; is nursed as matter Of
course, and admired rs matter Of courte-
sey; is dressed in the cast off clothes OF
number one, and gets initiated into life
without much ceremony or system.

A Husband for a Day.

A very fanny farce is sometimes presen-
ted TO the public, called "a Nabob for
an Hour A melo-drama has recently
been enacted in ST. Albans, Vermont,
which may be deuominated, "a lIusba nd
for Day" A few evenings since as we
are informed by correspondent, a lady
whose husband has been in California a.
bout five years, was agreeably surprised
by the unexpected return of her better half,
as she supposed. He wore a heavy beard
and moustache, and was familiar with
many incidents Of their early life, and so
fully established himself in the capacity
of her husband, that he passed an agree
able day in her company, and obtained
possession of some $500 previously remit
ted for her use. The happy pair were re-
ceiving the congratulations of their neigh
bors during the next day, when 10! and
behold, the joy of the lady was suddenly
changed to bitterness by one who had re-
Gently returned from the1gold region, and
who proved to her satisfaction that the
wou!d-be-husband was nothing more nor
less than good imitation Of the genuine
article-bearing the same form and fea-.,
lures, and having been an intimate friend
of the true one. The martial imposter
has been arrested, and now awaits his ex-
animation, for $50 the indictment reads)

Why DOES LAND PRopUcE WEEDS g.
Because there is more wild or tibrous
matter in the soil, accumulated by ages
of the growth and decomposition of vegc-
tation, than there is of that property re-
qured for the crops We wish to raise.
We have often heard, "burn q plant,
and the ashes will show what the soil is
composed Of" The ashes are what is
drawn from the earth. BY the decom.
position, what was drawn from the atmos-
phere, has been liberated, and escaped in
the form of gas. The ashes are mineral
and never exist naturally, in the atmos-
phere.
The ashes Of all plants consia. Of the
same substances only in different propor-
tions. Like soap which is grease and al
kali, but when properly combined is nei-
ther, but new compound. So with soils.
II the compound is largely wild, or vecc-
table, it will produce weeds; make excess
of phosphate Of lime, and it will as natu-
rally produce wheat; give it an excess of
alkali. and it will produce potatoes. A
farmer should fit hs crop to the soil, or
his soil for crop. D

TEARS OF TO DAY.-There is a tear of
JOY and tear Of grief The tear today
may not be forced by the same cause
which overtlowed the eye yesterday. A
tear may be sent up from the heart by
sorrow. 1t is the same liquid diamond in
either case. A little tear drop on the
cheek has language ofits own. 1t speaks
to the persons Of all nations. 1t is inter
preted readily by persons of all countries.
The tear Of to day means JOY or sorrow.
The face adown which tear runs, tells
whether it springs from sthe fountain of
JOY or grief. A tear draws forth deep
sympathy because it is the emblem of
Love, of Hope, or of Grief. When it is
grief our pulse beats faster, for our heart
is agitated and touched deeply. The true
feeling Of the heart is seen in tear which
fingers in the eye, that little bright win
dow of the soul! The tears of TO- day, IL
they do spring from grief, may tomorrow
be wiped away by the rainbow hues Of
peace, happiness and prosperity. Never
despair. Fireside Journal.
