PhenOnOnenl of the Brain.

One OF the most uncomfortable things
IN the nature of the brain is, that the or
gan of sensation should itself be insensi-
bic. To cut the brain would give no
pam, yet in that organ alone resides the
power Of feeling pain in any other part of
the body. If the nerve which leads from
1t to the injured part be divided, it be-
comes instantly unconscious of suffering.
1t is only by communication with the
brain that any kind of sensation is pro-
duced, yet the organ itself is insensible.
But there is circumstance more won
derful still. The brain itself may be re-
moved, may be cut away down to the
corpus calaram, without destroying life.
The animal lives and performs all its
functions which are necessary to simple
vitality, but no longer has mind il can
not think or feel; it requires that the
food should be pushed into its stomach !;
once there, it is digested, and the animal
will even thrive and grow fat. We infer,
therefore, that the part of the brain, the
commissions, is simply intended for the
exercise of the intellectual faculties,
whether of the low degree called instinct,
or the exalted kind bestowed on man,
the gifts freason.- Wagan on the Mind. |
Wearing the Garter.-We ask if it
be possible that one can destroy the pro-
portions of a well-shaped leg by gathering
the stocking below the knee /? Looks at
the statue of a Venus, and in thought draw
a band or an elastic under the knee
would not the result be a deformitv D.
But place the band above the knee, and
the harmony of the lines is not disturbed
1t becomes an ornament. The women
at Athens and Rome, who were famed
for their taste and skill in dress and
of artistic beauty, wore the
garter above the knee. But, not to occu-
Ply ourselves with them, let us see how
ong it has been thus worn with us. We

we have received large number of
Applications in person or by letter, in be-
nan OF young men ard boys who desire
cierkships in the city. To avoid disap-
pomtment, we may as well say that there

VINO are now seeking light employment,

vices are needed, and will be sure of a

Payments, for which Americans have
such an evident distaste. There is no
real independence in this world; but that
station which approaches nearest to it,
and attalns perhaps, to all that is desira-
bic OF it, is found in rural life among the
tlllers of the soil. In the old world,
where land is inalienable, or the fee SO
high that only wealth can compass it,
there Is much grinding toll and but little
encouragement for the poor in this pur-
SUIT But in this happy land any young
man VINO chooses, may be the owner of a

IT there is no farming prospect for you
IN the old States, turn your face to the
setting sun and work your way to spot
where the virgin soil invites the adyentu-
rous pioneer. Better a little backache,
brown cheek and hardened hands, with
a clear conscience, than the fairest out

put covers stained, wrinkled and har-

Losing AIl---A Family Scene.


There is something exceedingly ten
der, as we'll as instructive, in the follow
ing, which we take from the Childs pa.
per:
A few days ago, merchant failed in
business. He went home one evening,
In a great agitation. "What is the mat
ter!" asked his wife, al am ruined: I
am beggared. / have lost all p he ex-
claimed, pressing his hand upon his fore
head as if his brain were in whirl.
All! Y said his wife 81 am left."-
"All, papa r said his eldest boy " here
am /. I "And |, too, papa" said his lit
tie girl. running up and putting her arms
around his neck. Is, not lost, papa"
repeated little Eddie. And YOU have
your health left said his wife. "And
your two hands to work withpapa,' said
his eldest, and can help YOU "And
your two feet, papa, to carry you about"
"And your two eyes to see with papa"
said little Eddie.
And you have Gods promises" said
grandmother.
And a good God said his wife
" And heaven to go to-" said his little
girl. And Jesus who came to fetch us
there said his eldest.
"God forgive me" said the poor mer
chant, bursting into tears II have not
lost my all. What are the few thousands
which | have called my all, to these
more precious things which God has left
me 7" and he clasped his family to his
bosom, and be kissed his wife and chill
dren with thankful heart.
All no there are many things more
precious than gold and bank stocks
valuable as they may be in their place
When the Central America was founder
ing at sea, bags and purses of gold were
strewn about the deck as worthless as the
merest rubbish. Life, life y was the
prayer. TO some of the wretched suryi-
vors. /" Water, water!" was the cry.-
y" Bread, bread !" it was worth its
weight in gold, if gold could have buoght
it.
The loss of property must not cloud
the mind with wicked forgetfulness of
the greater blessings which are left be-
hind. No man should despair, for no
man has lost his all until he has lost his !
integrity, lest the mercy of God, and lost t
MS hope of heaven at last. I
