great strength of constitution. But men
of delicate health have often gone through
the greatest exertions; and his own words
on more than one occasion, show that he
suffered much from the lack of bodily
health.
/ Peter is represented as man of larger
and stronger form, as his character was
harsher and more abrupt. The quick i'm
pulses of his soul revealed themselves in
the flashes of dark eye. The complex
ion of his face was full and sallcw; and the
short hair which is described as entirely
grey at the time of his death, curled black
and thick around his temples and chin,
when the Apostles stood together at Anti
och, twenty years before their martyrdom
Believing, as we do, that these traditionary
pictures have probably some foundation in
truth, we take them as helps to the iniagi-
nation.

last two days. and last night Henry, ii
seemed as if it would kill mel
And / deserve the that it should me,
Nellie. You see ! was very desperate last
night when left you, for a terrible fear
has been haunting me ever since | made
that crul speech to you--a fear that you
did not love me. 1t was this that drove
me to that dreadful act last evening
And feared you would not forgive me
for this; look up my sweet wife, and tell
me, with those dear, blue eyes, that yeu
do?
And now, Henry, said Mrs. Howard,
as her husband was leaving home very
late that morning, we have promised the
past shall be forgiven and forgotten-will
you promise me one thing more, and l
shall be so happyT
We'll, what is it darling? L will do
everything for your happiness.
THAT you will sign the pledge this very
day
He did SO, and when an angry thought
came to the heart, or an angry word to the
lips of Mrs. Howard, she went and looked
ON the pledge, and it was bond of peace
between her and her husband.

THE ARAr.-Gen Scott, in his report
as Commander-in Chief, rcitcrates his
opinion that it would be quite misnomer
TO call our army a peace establishment,
considering our constant Indian Wars
He thinks the rank and file much improv-
ed, and recommends that one company in
each regiment should be kept on depot
service to recruit, He also reiterates his
recommendation for ro.iring list for
supcranuatcd and disabled officers and
considerably increased compensation for
commissioned officers. The last point is
particularly urgcd-as law putting the
army and Navy on the same footing al to
