OUR RELATIONS To GoD.--DO YOU suppose
a man to know himself that he comes into this
world on no other GRAND bnt to rise out Of
the vanity Of time into the riches of eternity :;
do You suppose him to govern his inward
thoughts and outward actions by this view of
himself, and then to him every day has lost lis
evil, prosperity and adversely have no difference
because he receives and uses them both in the
same spirit life and death are eqnaiIy welcome
because equally parts of his way to eternity
For poor aad miserable as this life IS. We have
all Of Us free access to aIl that is great and
happy and carry within ourselves a KEY toa|I
tie ca sure' tIat heaven has bestowed up mus
We starvc in the midst Of plenty, CT, a.
under inlirmticS with the remedy in our own
hand live and die without knowing and feel
ing anything of the One onIy gooi whilst we
have in cur power TO know and enjoy it in as
great a reality, as we know and feel the power
of this world over us i; for heaven is as near to
our souls as this world is to our bodies land we
are created, we are redeemed to have our con
versation in it, God the only good of all in
teligCnt natures is not an absent or distant
God, but is more present in and to our souls
than our own bodies and we are strangers to
heaven, and without God in the world, for this
only reason because we are void Of that spirit
OF prayer which alone can, and never fails to
unite us with the Oae, only good AMI to open
heaven and The kingdom of God within rs.
A root set in the finest so !, in the best eli
mate, and blessed with all that sun, and air
and rain can do for it, is not in so snre a way
Of its growth to perfection, as every man may
be whose spirit aSpircS afIcralI that which God
is ready and infinitely deSirons TO give him
For the sun meets not the Springiug bud that
stretches toward him with half chat certainty
as God, the source of all good communicates
himself to the soul that Io2gS to partakc of
him. We are all Of us hy birth the offspring
of God, more nearly related to him than we
are to one another for in him we live, and

A CAUTION TO YOUNG MEN-A young
medical student from Michigan, who had been

heart and fortune of blooming yuung lady
who was boarding in the same house with him
After prolonged siege the lady surrendered

The same afternoon the young wife" sent for
" beautiful little daughter" three and half
years of age.

exclaimed the astOnishcd student
Yes, my dear, and this is Amelia, my
youngest to morrow, Augustus, James and
Reuben will arrive from the country, and then
| shall have ali my children together once
more"
The unhappy stndeut replied not a word
his feeling were too deep for utterance The
next day the "othcr darlings' arrived Reuben
was six years old, James nine, and AugustuSa
saucy boy of twelve. They were delighted to
hear they had new papa" because they
couId now live at home and have all the play
things they wanted The "ncw papa, as soon
as he could speak, remarked that Augustus
and James did not much resemble Reuben and
Amelia.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN \ WATCH AND \ Clock
A watch differs from a clock in its having
a vibrating wheel instead of a vibrating pen
duum and, as in a clock, gravity is always
pulling pendulum dOwa To the bottom Of its
arc which is its natural place Of rest, but does
not fix it there, because the momentum acquir-
ed during its fall from one side, carries it MP
to an equal height on the other--so in watch
a spring, generally spiral, surrounding the axis
of the balance wheel, is always pulling towards
the centre, but does not fix it there, because
the momentum acquired during its approach to
the middle position from either side carries it
Just as far past on the other side, aud the
spring has to begin its work again The bal
ance wheel at each vibration, allows one tooth
of the adjoining wheel to pass, as the pcndu-
lum does in a clock and the record of the
beats is preserved by the wheel that follows
A handspring is used o keep up the motion of
the watch, instead OF the weight used in a
clock aud as spring acts equally well what
ever be its position. watch keeps time al
though carried in the pocket, or il moving
ship. In winding up watch, one turn OF the
axle on which the key is fixed is rendered
equivalent, Ly the train of wheels, to about
four hundred turns or beats of the balance
wheel and thus the cXerton, during few
seconds, Of the hand which winds up, gives
motion for twcntyfour or thirty hourS.

PUT Her T. EoUGH'-A gentleman had
occasion to send his little daughter up to the
garret for some article which he wanted The
child soon returned, crying, and upon being
asked what the trouble was, replied that the

awakened interest, but the object Of their soil

Every woman has right to be any age she

a RIGHT TO think her child is the "prettieSt lit

greatest folly to deny her this right for she
would be sure to take it. Every young lady
has a right to faint when she plcases if her

MISTAKES or PRINTERS Some people are
continually wondering at the careleSssness'
OF editors in allowing so many errors and
b'undcrS to appear in their columns. and mar
the print. Such people know very little of the
diflicnties-we had almost said impossibilites
OF keeping them out The most careful at.
tention to these matters will not prevent errors
from creeping in, even when professional proof
readers are engaged expressly for the purpose
And when it is borne in mind that in most
papers such an expense Unnecessarily dispensed
with, and the proofs, on that account are often
hurriedIy examined, the fact will no longer ap
pear strange. In connection with this subject
the following anecdote is not inappropriate
A Glasgow publishing honse attempted o
publish work that should be n perfect spc-
cimcn of typographical accuracy. After hav-
ing been carefully read by six experienced proof
readers, it was posted up in the hall of the
University, and reward of fifty pounds offer
ed to any one who should detect an error
Each page remained two weeks in this place
and yet when the work was issued, several cr-
rorS were discovered, one of which was in the
first line of Lhe first page
When such was the case in a city long cell
cbrated in Great Britain for publishing the
finest and most correct editions Of the classics.
what is to he expected in a newspaper, which
must necessarily be hurried through the press

will hardly afford onc" experienced proof reader"

papers is really astonishing

CAUSE OF FROG SHowERs-The actual fact
that considerable spaces of ground have been
suddenly covered with numerous small frogs,
where there were no frogs before, has been
proved beyond a doubt. Some have called in
the aid Of waterspoutS, whirlwndS, and similar
causes, to account for their elevation into the
regions Of air and some have even thought
that they were formed in the clouds, from
whence they were precipitatcd. 1t has general
y been in August and often after season of

their appearance ; but with Mrs Siddons we

PREPARATION OF GCrTA PERcuA.-The first
process in the treatment of gutta percha for
manufacturing purposes consists in cutting the
block into slices. There is vertical wheel,
on the face Of which are fixed three knives or
blades and while this wheel is rotating with
an immense speed, a block of gutta percha is
supplied to it, and quickly cut into thin slices
These slices show that the gutta percha is by
no means uniform in different parts, either in
color or texture To bring about uniformity
is the object of the shredding or tearing pro-
cess. The slices are thrown into a tank of wa
ter, which is heated by steam to such temper
ature as to soften the mass the dirt end hea-
w impurities fall to the bottom leaving a pas
ty mass Of gum, and this mass being thrown
into another rotating machine, is there is so
rent and torn, and dragged aSundcr by jagged
teeth, as to be reduced to fragments The
fragments fall into water upon the surface OF
which, owing to the small specific gravity of
the matera,, they float, while any remaining
dirt or impurty falls to the bottom. These
fragments are next converted into dough like
substance by another softening with hot water.
and the dough uudergoes athoroagh Kncading;
it is placed in hollow heated iron cylinders, in
which revolving drums so completely turn,
squeeze and mix the now purified mass, that all
parts become alike.

A QUEER NIsTAKE.-An ignorant fellow,

years so, when the clergyman asked him, in
the church, "Wlt thou have this woman to be
thy welded wife ?" the bridegroom answered,
in a very solemn tone, | renonnce them all.
