Each Day.

Each day is divine gift. It is there
fore . divine opportunity, sent as gift
from heaven, and like all such gifts, brings
something more than ITSELF The mercy OF
God comes in it, and for aught you know,
its hours may contain special mercics for
your heart None can tell when Christ
may appear to the soul with his gracious
revelations, but each day we should be
ready for those communications, lest they
be lost for want of preparation to receive
them. Bat oil this we may be fully assured
that each day is commissioned to do its
work for Us. No one day is like any ether
day. Ii comes to disclose something not
seen before 1t is a new day born from
above. And as such should it be accepted,
remembering that each day is royal visi-
tor. laden with magnificent favors, ana ca
ger to enrich Us with bounty infinite.
Each day We have new worIa. 1t is
the same heavens and earth. yet not the
same. Look at that landscape IN the light
Of this morning. Il; Is beautiful. very beau
tiful. but it Is not the Leauty of yesterday.
Another shade of color, another form Of mo-
wing or still shsdows, other sounds than
those of yesterday. are all abroad. The
clouds offer new views. The armament
bends nearer or retreats farther off. And
thus it is with the moral world. Home is
not precisely as it was, nor is business, nor
Is pleasure. Friends are more or less COM
municatiyc and agreeable. Sympathy is
not so free or frcer. Wife and children are
not as lovely or lovelier than on yesterday.
Within our own hearts, too, are changes
easily perceptible. Books have lost some
Of their pleasures, or gained others. We
read the Bible differently. We pray differ
emily. We strike thought at a new angle
The moral atmosphere has changed and all
things appear in other lights A purpose
we set on yesterday, a resolution formed, a
plan adopted, are not quite as noble, as in
spring as before. and our zeal has sunk
several degrees. Well, this is providential.
Variable moods are good, are useful, if we
have consistency Of principle and simplicity
OF aim. A large part of our best training
comes IN this way, if we are properly exer-
ciscd thereby To-day often makes havoc
with yesterday, but only with weak. imbe-
ciie souls The law of change, in Gods
hands, Is the law Of unity, and to-day diff
iers from other days, that We grow into
greater completeness OF character, and be-
come more true to ourselves as Christ's re-
deemed.
Each day our work becomes more impor-
tant. and we have less time for its perform
ance Each day it is a more solemn thing
to lie n Christian. and a more awful thing
to be sinner. Each day we are nearer our
destiny-nearcr Heaven or He'll If men
were conscious of Time, how conscious
would they be of Eternity-NeW Orleans

$40, 900 Verdict Against a CITY.

An important case has just been decided
in Detroit, and one that is pregnant with
suggestions to our own CITY authorities.
The suit was brought in the Michigan Cir
cult Court against the city of Detroit, by
the husband of Mrs. Corey, woman resi-
ding in Oakland county, for damages re-
sulting from injuries received about one
year ago, in consequence OF the upsetting of
wagon in which she was riding, into an
open and uncompleted sewer which was in
course of construction In one of the streets
The injury was such that the spine was af-
fected, and she deprived entirely of the use
of the lower portion of her body and limbs,
being confined to her bed constantly from
inability to control or make use of her
limbs, which are not only useless, but with
CT feeling. She is said to be otherwise in
