How 10 Dispose Of Old Stock.

A ped1ler Of tin ware, who had been
traveling from plantation totplantation with
bis cargo Of 'notions,' fouhd but limited
sale for his lanterns, an aaticle Of which he
bad very large stock. In despair of get
ting rid OF them he offered them at what he
called "a very redueed.priee.' yet he found
purchasers as scarce as clover in sand hills,
A, length tavern keeper direeted him to
farmer, who, be said was very much in
want OF the article, To the house Of this
ready customer went Jonathan, determined
to pet his troubles worth ont Of him. The
first person he met was the oyeFseer, WHO
was loungiug BY the side of the road.

onwards.
sYou don't want to buya first rate Ian
tern. do ye?' said he to the overseer's wife,
who was washing in the spring,
Yes, was the reply, .Mr. B. has been
wanting one this long while
Jonathan accordingly served her out one
at the same price he had bargained with
her husband for. At the bern, before he
reached the farm house, be met the SON Of
the planter
'You doa't waat 10 buy nc lanterns, do
you!'
Il don't want one myself, but I'll take
one for father, who has been after one this
long while.
| Jonathan accordingly pocketed another
tthirty-seven and half cents, and became
one lantern lighter

HAGAR TO HER CHILD.
BY n. P. WILLIS.

Good stay thee in thine agony. my boy;
cannot see thee die; can not brook
Upon thy brow to lock,
And see death settle on my cradle joy.
How have drunk the light of thy blue eyes
And could | see thee die2
y did not dream ofthis, when thou vast stray
ing,
Like an unbound gl1elle; among the flowers;
Or wearing rosy hours,
By the rich gush Of water-sources playing.
Then sinking weary to thy smiling sleep,
So beautiful and deep.
''0h no. and when watched By thee the while
And saw thy bright lip curling in thy dream,
And thought of the dark stream
In my own land OF Egypt, the far Nile,
How prayed | that my fathers land might be
a heritage for thee!
And now the grave for its cold breast hath won
thee
And thy white, delicate limbs the earth will
press;
And 0! my last caress
Must feel the eeld, Cor a chill hand is on theo.
How can l leave my boy SO pillowed there
Upon his clustering hair.''

TIE HEARTS GUESTS.

When age has cast its shadows
O'er life's declining way,
And the evening twilight gathers
Round our departing day
Then we shall sit and ponder
On the DIM and shadowy past;
Within the hearts still chambers
The guests will gather fast.
The friends in youth we cherished
Shall come TO us once more,
Again to hold communion
AS in the days ofyorc.
They may be stern and sombre;
They may be young and fair,
But the heart will have its chambers:
The guests shall gather there,
How shall it be, my sisters2
Who, then, shall be our guests2
How shall it be, my brothers,
When life's shadows on us rest.
Shall we not, midst the silence,
lnaccents soft andlow,
Then hear familiar voices,
And words Of long ago7
Shall we not see dear faces,
Sweet smiling as of oldg
Till the mists of that still chamber
Are sunset clouds Of gold!
When age has cast its shadows
0'er life's declining way,
Aud the evening twilight gathers
Round our departing daya

TransIations Of the Bible.

The first translation of the Bible into
English was made by John Wyckliffe. lie
translated from the Latin Bibles then in
use The Translation was made some time
before the year 1884, as WycklifFe died in
that year. This translation was never print
ed, but there are several MSS. of it III
England
fn the year 1927, William Tindal, a
" el>hnnn, first printed the New Testament
at Antwerp. This translation was not
made as former ones haG been, from the
Latin vulgate, but from the Greek original.
III 1886 the whole Bible was translated
BY Myles Coverdale, published in folio, and
dedicated 10 Henry VIII.
In 1881 Mathews Bible, as il is called,
was printed with the kings license, Of which
there was another edition in 1851 Math-
ews is certainly d fct;cious name, as Johu
Rogers was the translator. In Queen
Mary reign he vas burnt for printing this
very Bible.
In the year 1889 Mathews Bible was
published, with alterations aud corrections,
in large folio, printed BY Grafton, which
was also called Craumcrs, or the Great
Bible.
The next revision aid publication Of the
Bible was made under the care and direc-
ton of Archbishop Parker. Aud as sew
eral Bishops were empoloyed in il, It is
sometimes called the Bishops Bible. This
was printed in 1858.
The English Roman Catholics, in 1882,
made translation of the New Testament,
in English, from what they call the authen-
tical Latin-meaIing the vulgaie--and be-
canse it was printed at Rheims it is usually
called the Rheimish Bible. And in 1903
they also printed the Old Testament, al
Donay, called the Donay Bible.
In the reign of james l. new, complete
and more accurate translation of all the
Holy Scriptures vas made by ffty-four learn
ed men, appointed BY royal authority, and
was printed in folio in l61I.
| This last is as true and good version a'
we can have, and we shall not want another
till length of time and change of Language
shall render it obscure and uniateliigible.
