THE MARRIAGE RELATIoN.-The great Sc
cret is to learn to bear with each others fail
ings not to be blind to them-that is either
an impossibility or q folly: we must see and
feel them; if we do neither they are not evils
to us, and there is obviously no need of for
bearance; but to throw the mantle of affec-
tion around them, concealing them from each
others eyes; to determine not to let them
chill the affections; to resolve to cultivate
good-tempered forbearance because it is the
way of mitigating the present evil, always
with view to ultimate amendment. Surely
it is not the perfection, but the, imperfection
of human character that makes the strongest
claim in love- All the world must approve,
even enemies must admire the good and the
estimable in human nature. IF husband and
wife estimate only that in each which all must
be constrained to value, what do they more
than others? 1t is infrmities of character,
imperfections, of nature that call for the pity
ing sympathy, the tender compassion, that
makes each the comforter, the monitor of the
other. Forbearance helps each to attain
command over themselves. Few are the
creatures so utterly evil as to abuse gcner-
Gus confidence, calm forbearance. Married
persons should be pre-emincntly friends, and
fidelity is the great privilege of friendship
The forbearance here contended for, is not
weak and wicked indulgence OF each others
faults, but such calm, tender observance of
them as excludes all harshness and apger,and
takes the best and gentlest methods of point
ing them out in the full confidence of ailec-
tion.- Whisper TO Bride.

Mind YOUR Stops.

Riding in a railway car, not long since,
our eyes CHANGED to light upon little book,
in the hands Of one Of the passengers, which
he seemed to be intently studying. AS ne
lifted it somewhat nearer to his face, we saw
the title "Mind your Stops" stamped in
large letters upon the cover. 1t was, doubt
less, small treatise on punctuation; most
needful, much-negected art. But the title
to us was suggestive of other things 1t
might be introduced, not unwisely,w thought,
into practical morals; and, as we sped swift
ly on, we busted ourselves in thinking OF the
classes and persons in whose ears,if we could,
VIC would breathe the words, =" Mind your
stops"
Weighty words of warning arc they, es-
pecially to the young men. Setting out as
you are, young brother, on the great highway
of life, we say earnestly and emphatlcally,
!" Mind your stops"
DO not " stop at the bar-room. Merry
laughter may ring out from it as you pass by,
and voices of friends and companions may
call you to enter. Within it may shine
brightly with light, thrown back from pol
ished mirrors, and CLEAN from crystal bottles,
and the voice of mirth and gayety may be
heard there but /" stop" not; there is dan
ger in its brightness. Those geamingbottles
contain potions that may lead to poverty, dis
honor and death. The merriment there is
the laughter of the maniac. "Avoid it,
pass not by it, turn from it, and pass away"
DO not =" stop" at the gambling house.
Those closed shutters conceal treacheries and
destinations you NAV find youlself too weak
to resist. There are callous hearts there,
whose delight it will be to lure your feet into
coils from which you cannot escape. They
may be lair to your eye, when covered by a
fair address, but the neither milestone is not
more hard or the serpent more crafty. Keep
far from the clutches of these destroyers.-
Risk no money upon their tables. The mon
ey is little worth, indeed, but you may be
playing with honor, with happiness, with
your SOULS life The stake is too high; the
gains are too insignificant.
DO not stop at the theatre. 1t is " the
school of morals" say those who love it.
We add, it is the school of bad morals. Be-
fore the foot-lights and behind them, corrup-
ton reigns 1t is the mart of the shameless
representations of vices, and of shameful car
features of goodness. Virtue owes it moth
ing, and religion disowns and opposes it.
"Stop" not at its open doors. You may en-
ter to have your souls defled, and your heart
tainted; you may sink from its "pit" to a
lower, deeper, and more dreadful pit.
Stop" not anywhere where conscience
forbids or temptations beckon. "Turn not
to the right hand or left" Let thine eyes
look on, and let thine eyelids look straight
before thee. There are many places to Sc
duce you by splendor, and to beguile you by
their facinations Take care lest you pause
in them. They are bright ante-chambers Of
the dark prison house; gilded gateways tc
hell. Watch your thoughts. Take care Of
your associations. "Mimd your stops"

GOING TO BETTER COUNTRY. The
Christian does not turn his back upon the fine
things of this world, because he has no nat
ural capacity to enjoy them, no taste for
them; but because the Holy Spirit has shown
him greater and better things. He wants
flowers that will never fade; he wants some
thing that he can take with him to another
world He is like man who has had notice
to quit his house, and having secured a new
one, he is no more anxious to repair, much
less, to embellish and beautify, the old one !;
his thoughts are upon the removal. If you
hear him converse, it is upon the house to
which he is going. Thither he sends his
goods; and thus he declares plainly what he
is seeking.

Mans Destiny.

The appearance of man upon the scene
of being constitutes new era in creation;
the operations of new instinct come into
play-that instinct witch anticipates life
after the grave, and reposes implicit faith up
on God alike just and good, who is the
pledged "rewarder Of all who diligently seek
Him." and in looking along the long line of
being-ever rising in the scale from higher
to get highe manifestations, or abroad on
the lower animals, whose instinct never de-
ceives-can we hold that man, immeasurably
higher in his place, and infinitely higher in
his hopes and aspirations than all that ever
went before him should be, notwithstanding,
the one grand error in creation-the one
painful worker, in the midst of present
troubles, q state into which he is never to en-
ter--the befooled cxpectant Of happy fu-
ture which he his never to see? Assuredly
no. He who keeps faith with His humble
crcatures-who gives even the bee and the
dormouse, the winter for which they prepare
will to certainty not break faith with man
with man, alike the deputed lord of the
present creation and the chosen heir Of all
the future. We have been looking abroad
on the old geologic burying grounds and de-
ciphering the strange inscriptions on their
tombs but there are otherr burying- grounds
and other tombs-solitary church-yards
among the hills, where the dust of martyrs
lie and tombs that rise over the ashes of the
wise and good nor are these wanting, or
even the monuments Of the persisted race
frequent hieroglyphics and symbols of high
meaning, which darkly intimate to us, thai
while their burial yards contain but the deb
ris of the past, we are to regard the Others
as charged with the sown seed of the future

Memory.

Who Of all our friends is SO fondly loved
who of all our foes so intensely hated, as this
continual presence, this constant guest p
Whether gliding noiselessly to our side, and
with voiceess whispers gently calling us
away to her thronged regions, or bursting in
at the unguarded door, and hurrying us forth
with impetuous haste, she can never be de-
barred from our chambers, never be shut from
even our most secret council.
Morning breaks over the hushed world and
you throw open the window to meet her gaze,
and the bright herald of her approach peeps
softly in; but that tiny cloudlet has become
memory's wand. Eyes that oft lured your
own from dayspring and star are again look
ing on you with the light Of other days.
alas I! it is the {" other days" that draws the
misty veil across your vision. You shut the
window and turn quickly away, seeking care
and toll to help you Danish the angel, whose
reveaings sink so heavily into your heart.
Yet again she steals to your side, and not
unwelcome seems her changeful face. The
merry laugh of child has brought her back,
and you lend charmed ear to the tale she
reherses. There is no resisting the soft plead
err, and you follow on, bounding over the sum
ny green path, with light steps and lighter
heart.
She sings the song whose echoes lie deep
within your soul, and they ring out again and
again, till the world seems all music, and
sunshine, and gladness But ali, she touches
one frail chord, and every string in that fond
harp is breaking!
You close your ears, but deep-toned
knel vibrates through all your flame-you
shut your eyes, and the dim unearthly light
grows stronger in your heart. A pale, still
face comes up before you.-you feel hush
so painful that even the low wall of stricken
love seems a relief; and you fee shuddering
from the too faithful friend as from bitter
foe. But you cannot long escape her pres
ence. The carol Of bird your mother
taught you to love, will win her to your side,
the whistle of a tune you learned from a
brothers lips recalls the oft-told story of the
old hearth-stone a cherished memento of a
sisters kindness bids her Irvine anew the
wreath that long ago witEered in fairy fingers
"a thousand CLEANS Of sunny smiles flash
like the light of fallen stars across your path
and disclose the angel at the pool of life's
troubled waters-a thousand shadows bring
dimly back the darkness and the gloom thai
decked her dropping form in sable; but witt
all her varying aspects and ever-changing
features, memory is still the enduring friend
the unvaryiDg counsellor, and we 1--we he
more than we hate her, feeling with the poet

THE DAILY STRUGGLE.-If we keep not
Gods grace that He giveth us--if we do
not continually and daily reform ourselves,
and with all diligence fashion our lives after
His life, it is but right that we lose again that
we have received. But if we abide in Him
through faith, then hard and Improbable
things are light and possible to us for in Him
that strengthened us we may do all things.

The Girl with the Calico Dress.
By ROBERT JosSELYN.


A tigfor your upper-ten girls
With their velvets and satins and laces,
Their diamonds and rubies and pearls,
And their milliner figures and faces;
They may shine at party or ball,
Emblazoned with half they possess,
But give me in place of them all.
My girl with the calico dress.
She is plump as a partridge, and fair
As the rose in its earliest bloom:
Her teeth will with ivory compare,
And her breath with the clover perfume.
Her step is as free and as light
As the fawn's whom the hunters hard press
And her eye is as soft and as bright,
Ny girl with the calico dress.
Your dandes and popinJays may sneer,
At her simple and modest attire,
But the charms she permits to appear,
Would set whole iceberg on fire.
She can dance-but she never allows
The hugging, the squeeze and caress,
She is saving all these for her spouse.
My girl with the calico dress.
She is cheerful, warm-hearted and true,
And kind to her father and mother!
She studies how much she can do
For her sweet little sisters and brother.
If you want companion for life,
To comfort, enliven and bless,
She is just the right sort for wife,
My girl with calico dress.
