They tell a story of the man who intro.
duced the spinning jenny into this couniry::-
that after coming here and inducing certain
capitalists to invest money in his enterprise
and after going on and getting machinery 10.
gether according to draughts which he
brought from England, when it was death
by its laws to impart the secret ii other
lands, hefound that he had forgotten how
to adjust part of the machine and it would
not work. He was almost mad with anxi.
ETY., and did not sleep for some nights. A
panic took possession of the capitalists inter-
ested, and they would have sold out at half
price. AT length he fell asleep, and dream
ed that the inventor Of the machine in En-
gland came and told him how to put to-
gether the unadjusted part. He awole, and
went and did as he dreamed, and the ma
chine was instantly put in motion. True or
false, this story is alike appropriate to our
purpose. Suppose some one had come and
said to him, % it's all dream; it amounts
to nothing could he not confidently point
to his running factory, earning its thousand

we may say of Christian experience, Is that

transformations of personal character, these

L
A few evenings after the one in which
| William recounted his troubles, Mary said to
him: Can it be five years since you left
us on that eventful voyage? Is it indeed a
reality To me it seems long and troubled
dream, from which / have been but short
time awakened, and as your look expresses n
desire to hear, / will relate it.
All was bright with me after you left,
and was counting the days when should
hear from you; when dreamed You were
wrecked, they told me you were lost, and
at first, believed them. But soon other It'd
ings came to me- You called me; heard
your voice from the distant mountain, and
thither | hastened to meet you. l knew
you were not dead, for often heard that
voice, yet still you were nowhere to be found
l wandered, it seemed, long weary months
in search of you, often climbing almost mac
cessible rocks, that from their SUBMITS
might II possible, see you in the distance
AT last, when, almost in despair, clim-
bed the highest crag and sung, in tones loud
and shrill: 20, Willie, tarry not so long !
You heard and answered in the distance.
My JOY was so great that, for time, my
senses were bewidered, but at last, became
fully conscious YOU were near me, that
heard your pleading accents, though, as yet
l could not see you. Other remembrances
are indistinct, compared with the all-absorb-
ing thought of finding you. Sometime,
hunger almost overpowered me, and then
some fairy hand would bring the incest ber-
ries and fruits, and when cold or weary, that
little being would lead me to place made by
nature, and then leave me to repose. Thus
was my dream. At last woke; you were
standing by my bedside, and all was bright
again.
The next morning being lovely one in
June, proposed ride, which was readily
assented to by all, and we were off at an ear
ly hour. Our ride lay through fine coun.
try, and we were all in excellent spirits when
we came 10 the foot of the mountain. We
left our carriage at the base, and commenced
the assent. AS we proceeded, observed
Marry grew thoughtful, and disposed to say
but very little.
In ashort time we came near the cave,
when she bounded forward towards the en-
trance, exclaiming: Here, here is the
place of my dream, and here let us spend the
remainder Of our days.
The thought was not an unpleasant one
to William, and he was able, before the close
of another year, to take her, as his wife, to
one of the most beautiful homes in that re-
gion. The house was surrounded by fine
walks and avenues; but the little path to
the cave was left untouched. An observa-
tory was erected on that lofty crag where
we had first seen her, and there in after wears,
would she sit with friends, and repeat the
story of the Maid of the Mountain

a LOFTY mountain rose before us, and of
ter the toll of the days travel seemed rather
unwelcome, yet being desirous Of seeing ma
ture in our own New England, in her wild
est forms, we were not disposed to turn back
to the village, about five miles distant. We
commenced our ascent with as much cour
age as possible, hoping, before the deep dark
ness Of night was upon us, we might be able
to construct some rude shelter for the night,
among the rocks and crags on the noun
tain; the ruder, the more to our minds. Be
ing each Of US provided with travelling
sack, we had made some provision for the
wants Of nature, and were anticipating a fine
relish for our evening meal, when an Incl
dent occurred which put far from our minds
all thoughts of self or WEAKNESS. A shrek,

Amefican Pickles.

Do not keep pickles in common earthen-
ware, as the glazing contains lead, and COM
bines with vinegar. Keep pickles only in
stone and wood ware. Anything that has
held grease will spoil pickles.
Vinegar for picking should be sharp, but
not the sharpest kind, as it injuries the pick
les. If you use copper, bell metal, or brass
vessels for picking, never allow the yineear
to cool in them is poisonous. Add a table
spoonful of alumni and tea-cup of salt to
each three gallons of vinegar, and tie up a
bag with pepper, ginger root, and spices OF
all sorts in il, and you have vinegar prepar-
ed for any kind of common picking.
Stir pickles occasionally, and if they are
soft ones take them out and scald the vine
gar, and pour it hot over the pickles. Keep
enough vinegar to cover them well. If il is
weak, take, fresh vinegar, and pour on hot.
Do not boil vinegar or spice over five min
utes.

Piii Takers.

There are people in the world who physic
themselves to death. We have known men
to flee to pills for relief from every kind of
i'll. They had what may be called pill
mania. Some of those pill devourers would
present startling sum total, could they give
in round numbers the amount taken during
a lifetime. We recollect of one man, in
the western part of New York State, the to-
tai of whose pill taking was recorded as fol-
lows: in twenty-one years he took 1885,
934, which is at the rate of 0,906 per year :,
or twenty-nine per day day. lie began how
ever, it would seem with moderate appe.
lite, which increased rs he grew older; for
during the eight years proceeding his death
Of course he died-he swallowed pills at the
rate of seventy eight per day ! In one year,
just before lie shuffied off his pill-coii. he
took not less than 81 ,59Ol The most sur
prising part Of the story is vet to be told !;
in addition TO all the pills above recorded,
the victim swallowed, at various times, some
$4,000 bottles Of mixtures. These facts
were obtained, we would add, from res
pectable apothecary, near where our medi-
cine-man;ac lived from boyhood TO death,
and whofurnished him with all he wanted
in his line. There is question in our mind
whether the respectable apothecary, as afore.
said, was not an accessory to the murder oi
his profitable customer for, that no was
murdered, would seem to be fixed fact.

thrown upon our protection We knew
not where to go. We thought of the ach.

were mourning herabsence, orscearching for
