BEAUTIES OF THE INDIAN ARcHTPELA Go.-From
dawn until dark We went slowly lettering past
the lovely islands that gem those remote seas.
until the last Of them sunk astern in the hush
OF sunset. Nothing can be more beautiful than
their cones of never fading vcrdure. draped to
the very edge of the waves. except where some
retreating cove shows its beach of snow white
sands. On the larger ones are woody valleys,
folding between the hills, and opening upon
long slopes oyergrown with the cocoa palm. the
mango, and many strange and beautiful tree
of the tropics. The light lazy Clouds suffused
with crimson flush of heat, that floated slowly
through the heavens, cast shifting shadows up
on the masses of foliage. and deepcned here
and there the dark purple of the sea. Retreat
ing behind one another until they grew dim and
soft as clouds on the horizon. and grdled by
the most tranquil of oceans, these islands were
real embodiments of the joyous fancy of Tenny-
son. in his dream of the Indies. in g Locksley
Hail. Here, although the trader comes, and
the flags OF the nations of far continents some
times droop in the motionless ar-here are
still the heavy-blossomed bowers and the heavy
fruited trees. the summer Uses of Eden in their
purple spheres of sea. The breeze fell nearly
TO calm at MONDAY. but our vessel still moved,
noiselessy southwark. and island after island
faded from green to violet, and from violet to
the dim pale blue that finally blends with the
air.-Iaylors Visa to India, CHM and Japan.

In Debt and Out of Debt.
BY DOUGLAS JERROLD.


OF what hideous progeny of i'll is debt the IA
Their. What meanness, what inyasions OF self
respect, what doubled ,aling How in due sea-
son it will carve the frank, open face into wrn-
kles how like a knife it will stab an honest
heart And then its transformation! How 1t
has been kaogn to change goodly face into
mask of brass! How. with the miserable Gus
tom of .bt. has the true man become callous
trickstcr. freedom from ,bt, and what nour
ishing swectnes may be found in cold water !!
what toothsomeness in dry crust! what am
brosial nolr shmeat in a hard egg. Be sure of
it. he who dimes out of debt, though his meal be
biscuit and an onion, dimes in the Apollo.
A I'd then for raiment, what warmth in a
threadbare coat if the tailors receipt be in your
pocket! what Tyrian purple in the faded waist
coat not owed for. how glossy the well-worn
hat if it covers not the aching head of debtor!
Next, the home sweets, the outdoor recreation
of the freeman. The street door falls not knell
on his heart; the foot of the staircase creaks not
through his anatomy; at the rap of his door he
can crow Come in.' and his pulse still beats
BEAUTIFULLY his heart sinks not in his bowels.
See him abroad. How he returns look for
look with any passenger; how he saunters; now
meeting an acquaintance, he stands and Cos
sips: but then this man knows no d.bt; debt
that cast drug in the richest wine; that makes
the food OF the gods unwho!esome, ind gestibe;
that sprinkles the banquets of a Lucullus with
ashes, and drops SCOT in the soup of an emperor:
debt that. like the moth. makes valueless furs
and velyets. inclosing the wearer in fostering
prison. the shirt Of Nessus was shirt not paid
for;) debt that writes upon frescoed halls the
handwriting of the attorney, that puts voice
of terror in the knocker; debt, the invisible de-
mon that walks abroad with man, now quick
ening his steps. now making him look on all
sides like hunted beast. and which brings to
his face the ashy hue of death, as the uncon-
>cious passenger looks upon him.
Poverty is bitter draught, yet may and
sometimes can, with advantage. be gulphed
down Thou n the drinker makes wry faces
there may. after ali. be wholesome goodness
in the cup. But debt, however courteously it
may be offered, is the cup of Syrek, and the
wine, spiced and delicious though it be, is poi
son. The man out of debt, though with flaw
in his jerkn. a crack in his shoe leather, and
hole in his hat is still the son of liberty. free as
the singing lark above him: but the debtor
though clothed in the utmost bravery, what is
h. but Il sert out on a holiday, a slave to be re-
claimed at any instant by his owner, the credi-
tor.
My son. if poor. see wine in running spring,
see thy mouth water at a last week roll; think
a threadbare coat the only proper thing to wear;
and acknowledge a whitewashed garnet the fit
test housing place for a gentleman Do this
and flee debt. So sh IL thy heart be at rest and
the sheriff confounded.

Our Mother.

II find the marks of my shortest steps beside
those Of my beloved mother, which were meas
ured by my own says Alexander Dumas, and
so conjures up one of the sweetest images in the
world. He was revisiting the home ofhs infan-
cy; he was retracing the paths around it in
which he once walked; and strange flowers could
not efface. and rank grass could not conceal,
and cruel ploughs conld not obliterate, shortest
foosteps,' add his mothers beside them, meas
ured by his own.'
And who needs to be told whose footsteps
they were that thus kept time with the feeble
patting of childhood's little feet? 1t was no
mother behind whom Ascanius walked with
equal steps in Virgil's line. but strong, stern
man, who conld have borne him and not been
burdened folded him in his arms from all dan
ger and not have been wearied; everything, in
deed he could have done for him, but just what
he needed most-could not sympathize with
him; he could not be child again. All! rare
art is that for indeed it is an art, to set back
the great old clock of time, and be a boy once
more! Mans Imagination can easily see the
child man, but how hard it is for it to see the
man child; and he who had learned to glide
back into that rosy time. when he did not know
that thorns were under the roses. or that clouds
would ever return after the rain; when he thought
tear would stain cheek no more than drop
OF rain on a flower: when he fancied that life
nad no disguise anu nope no bilght at all, mas
come as near as anybody can to discovering the
northwest passage to Paradise.
And perhaps for this reason that it is so much
easier for a mother to enter the kingdom of
Heaven than it is for the rest of the world. She
fancies she is leading the children, when after
all, the children are leading her: and they kept
her indeed where the river is the narrowest, and
the air is the clcarest: and the reckoning of a
radiant hand is SO plainly seen from the other
side. that it was no wonder she so often lets go
her clasp upon the little fingers she is holding
and goes over to the neighbours and the chill
dren follow like lambs to the fold, for we think
it ought somewhere to be written Where the
mother is there will the children be ALSO
