Mr.. Gough's Apsstrophe to water.

At the close of one of the lectures Of John B.
Cough in an eastern city, he took glass of wa

apostrophized it in tho following eloquent man
ner:

hold i'll. See its purity! How it gltters, a. if q

brewed by the hand of the Almighty himself J.
Not in the simmering still or smoking fires, cho-
ked with poisonous gasses and surrounded by the
stencil of sickening odors and rank oorruptions,
doth our Father in Heaven prepare the
precious essence of life, pure cold water but
in the green glade and grassy dell, where the red
deer wanders and the child loves to play; there
God brews it /; and down, down in the deepest
valleys, where the fountains murmur and the rills
sing and high upon the tall mountain tops,
where the naked granite glitters like gold in the
sun, where the storm clouds brood and the thun-
der storms crash; and away far out on the wide
sea, where the hurricanes howl music and the big
waves roar the chorus-sweeping the march Of
God-there he brews it, that beverage Of life
health-giving water.
And everywhere it is thing Of besaty ;gleam-
ing in the dew-drop- singing in the summer rain
shining in the ice-gem, till the trees all seem
turned into living jewels-spreading golden
veil over the setting sun, or white gauIs around

BEAUTY VS.. UGLlNEss.-We like homely wo-

Nonsense I'VE don't know who started the
above wse-looking aphorism, and we don't care
for he isn't worth knowing. A homely wo-
man is just rs likely to be a fool or vixen as a
handsome one, and a little more so. The truth
is, though natures sometimes whimsical enough
to contradict her own rules, yet in the mein she
loves proportion, symmetry, and what the artists
call "keeping." Ugly faces. distorted figures, bad
passions and weak or wicked heads are oft to.
gether. True beauty in man or woman is prinsa
facia evidence of good temper and good life
