TBE CAUSE OF FoREieN Missions. The ex-
ecntive Committee Of the American Board of
Commissioners for Foreign Missions have made
an earnest appeal TO the friends of that noble
Institution TO relieve it from the very embar-
RAISING position at which it has arrived. The
receipts for the first four months of the present
financial year show dimnuiion of income
compared with last year Of $4,000. which. with
the previously existing debt of $40 900, makes
the present Indebtedness of the Board not less
than S2S, 600. Since the meeting OF the Board
at Utica, ttirty-t,co missionary laborers have
been sent to different parts of the world, who
must be provided for and the unavoidable ex-
pendilures of nearly all the missions are in
creasing, and in some instances rapidly. Un-
der these circumstances, the agents of the
Board make an earnest appeal for enlarged con
tributions on the part of Christians in behalf of
this noble work. Unless this help is afforded,
they say that evils of serious nature must in
evitably ensue. Schools, presses, missions
must be cut down, and in some cases, perhaps
totally abandoned. We cannot believe that at
a time when the foreign mission cause is more
promising than ever before, when the fields are
''while to the harvest" and when the heather
are calling from all quarters for the word Ct
God, the Christians of America will fail in
meeting the emergency.-BostorJ Journal.

"TOngues in TrceS.o

Nice observers of nature have remarked
the variety of tones yielded by trees when
played W on by the wind. Mrs. Hemans
once asked Sir Walter Scott if he had ever
noticed that each tree gives out it's peculiar
sound eyes" said he, II have; and
think something might be done by the union
Of poetry and music to initiate those voices,
giving different measure to the oak the
pine, the willow, ect. There is Highland
air of somewhat similar character, called the
Notes of the Sea- Birds" In Henry Tay-
lor's drama, Edwin the Fair" there are
some pleasing lines, where the wood is fcign-
ed to feel the want of voice, and TO Woo the
trees to give him one. He applied to several:
but the wandcrer rested with the pine, be-
cause her voice was constant, soft, lowly and
deep: and he welcomed in her mild memoir
ial of the ocean-cavc, his birthplace. There
is fine description of the storm in "Con-
ingby," where a sylvan language is made to
swell the diapason of the tempest. 1.-The
wind hOwled: the branches of the forest STIR
red, and sent forth sounds like an incanta-
ton. Soon might be distinguished the vari-
GUS voices Of the trees, as they expressed
terror or their agony.-The oak roarcd, the
beech shrieked, the elm sent forth its long,
deep groan, while ever and anon, amid a
momentry pause, the passion of the ash was
beard i'll means Of thrilling anguish. :"

Drilling Wheat.

AS the season for seeding is again at hand
we would urge every farmer, who does not
own wheat drill, to procure one without
delay. Were there not other inducements
to do so, the experience of last winter Of the
advantages of drilling would be conclusive.
We have heard of many places, and indeed
in nearly every neighborhood in this section
OF the State, there were cases where drilled
wheat stood the winter well, and ha, since
yielded plentiful harvest, while that sowr
broadcast, and covered with the harrow, was
very much killed out and injured. The rea-
sons in favor of drilling in are, that the
wheat is covered deeper, it is dropped and
covered with more regularity, and It requires
less seed. Pcnnock's improved grain dill is
probably as perfect an implement for this
purpose as can be devised. 1t is calculated
for wheat oats and grass seeds, it is we'll
made, and at the same time free from all

Allow Voice in Woman,

Yes we agree with that old poet, who said
that low, soft voice was IAN excellent thing
in woman. Indeed We feel inclined to go
much farther than he has on the subject and
call it one of her browning charms. No mat
ter what other attractions she may have she
may be az fair as Trojan Helen. and as learn
cd as the famous Ilypatia of ancient times
she may have all the accomplishments con-
sidcretl requisite at the present day, and
every advantage that wealth can procure and
yet If she lacks low, sweet voice she Cal,
never DO really fascinating.
How often the spell of beauty is rudcly
broken by course, loud talking. Now often
you are irrcsistibly drawn to plain, unas-
Stunning woman whose soft, silvery tones
under her positively attractive. Besides W,
fancy we can judge of the character by the
voice the bland, smooth, fawning tone seems
to lis to betokcn deceit and hypocrisy as in
variably as the musical, subIued voice indi-
Gates general refinement.
In social circle. hew pleasant it is tc
hear our Sex talk in that low key, which
always characterize the true lady. In the
sanctuary of home, how such voice sooths
the fretful child and cheers the weary hus-
band. How swcetly its cadcnces float
through the sick chamber, and around he
dying bed, with what solemn melody do they
breathe prayer for the departing soul. All
yes, low. soft voice in certainly "an excel

Booth and several friends had been invited

Of distinguished kindness, urbanity, and picty
The host, though disappearing Of theatres
and thcatre-going, had heard so much of
Booths remarkable powers, that curiosity to
see the man had, in this instance. overcome
all his scruplcs and prejudice. After the
entertainment was over. lamps lighted. and
the company reseated in the drawing room,
| some one requested Booth as particular
favor. and one which all present would doubt
| less appreciate, to read aloud the Lord s
Prayer. Booth expressed his willingness to
| afford them this qualification, and all eyes
turned expectantly upon him. Booth rose
slowly and revcrently from his chair. 1t
was wonderful to watch the play of emotions

Booth: "to read that Prayer as it should be
