Thrilling Instance of Faith.

A clergyman ef this city read letter at
one of the SAMSON street MONDAY prayer
meetings. this week, from young
man of his acquaintance who was on board
the ili-fated Austria, in which he detailed
the last Interview between himself and FIVE
Christian comrades who perished beneath
the waves. AS soon as the destruction of
the H5@f tgaf found inevitable. these six
young men took a position between the
flames and the water, with the understand
ing that at the last moment they would uni
tedly consign themselves to the latter. In
the bare moment thus allowed to contem-
plate their fate, their hope in Christ was
confidently expressed, and when, to escape
the spreading fre, their leap became neces-
sary, they fondly grasped each others hand,
and with a parting Farewell. . and an ex-
pressed confidence that In ga few moments
they would meet in heaven" they sprang
into the sea. The writer of the letter states
that after sustaining himself in the water
by naeaRs of life-preserver for four hours
(during which time his contemplations of
future state ripened into a JOY in believing
in his Savior such as he had never before
experienced a vessel hove in sight for his
release: SO that just at the moment when
his exhausted energies brought the open
door of heaven more temptingly to view, he
was made the subject of an earthly rescue.
The keadingrefs aheg letter referred to elected
an outburst of feeling all over the ROOM

An Adieu to Greece.

Bayard Taylor. IN his last letter from
Athens. thus bids beautiful farewell to the
land of colossal heroes and mighty memo
xies:
q Let ne not lose the pensive sweetness and
sadness-of this last evening in Athens. The
sun is sinking in clear saffron light beyond
the pass of Daphine,9 and purple flash
plays all along the high, barren sides OF
Hymetsus. Before me rises the Acropolis,
with its crown. of beauty, the Parthenon,
on whose snowy front the sunsets of two
thousand years have left their golden stain.
In the distance is the musical Egean. dan
fcing with light-whisperIng waves. to fll the
; 'rock-hewn sarcophagus of Themistocles.-
Plato's olives send silver simmer through
the dusk that is creeping over the Attic plain.
Many an evening have I contemplated this
illustrious landscape, but it was never so
lovely as now, when looked upon it for the
last time. Every meiodious wave in the
long outline of the immortal mountains
every SCARED marble in the august piles of
ruin-every blood-red anemone on the
banks of the Ilissus, and every asphodel
that blossoms on the hill of Colonos-I
know them and they know me. Not as a
curious stranger leave Athens not as
traveller, eager for new scenes; but with
the regret of one who knows and loves the
sacred soil, to whom it has been at once a
sanctuary and a home

FRUIT. IN ITALY-An american traveller
says: 4 have not yet seen. either in the
markets or grape-yards of Southern Europe.
anything that would compare with the fruit
displayed at our annual shows. Not only
in The large grape yield, but in other kinds
of fruit, this will be a bounliful year in
Tuscany. Figs, pears and peaches are in
uncommon abundance indeed, the last
named are about as plenty, good and cheap
as with us during favorable seasonin New
Jersey. Of fresh figs, fifteen to twenty can
be bought for a crazia, little more than our
cent The olive yield does not promise so
well as usual, which may oblige the Floren-
tines after this to pay a little more for the
oil they burn in their lamps and eat on their
salads. The past summer has been very
comfortable one in this part of Italy. There
were only few days of excessive heat, and
indeed, rarely is any great Inconvenience
felt on that account"

Manners.

Young folks should be mannerly. But
how to be is the question. Many good
boy and girl feel that they cannot behave to
suit themselves in the presence of company.
They are awkward. ciownish, rough; they
feel timid, bashful, and self distrustful, the
moment they are addressed by stranger.
or appear IN company There is but one
way TO get over this feeling and ACC uire
graceful and easy manners that is, to do
the best they can all the time. at home as
we'll as abroad. Good manners are not
learned 50 much as acquired by habit. They
grow upon US by use. We must be courte-
Gus, agreeable, civil, kind. gentlemanly, and
wouaanls at home, and then it viii soon be-
come kind of second nature to be SO ey-
erywhere.v 4 coarse. rough manner at home
hegets habit of roughness which We can

The Heavens Before and Afser Dawn.

Che Heavens Before and After Dawn
had occasion, a few days since, to take
an sarIystrazn from Providehcei 60 Boston,
and for this purpose rose st two O'clock .in
the morning. Everything around was
wrapped in darkness and hushed in silence,
broken only by Nbat seemed at that hour
the unearthly elank and rush of The, train.
+ 1t was 4 mid, serene naid simmer night;
the sky was wishout a cloud, tha winds
were whist The moon, then in the last
quarter, had just risen, and the stars shone
with spectral lustre but little Affected by
ber presence. Jupiter. two hours high,
was the herald of the day; the Pleiades.
Just aboye the horizon, shed their sweet in
fluence in the east: Lyra sparkled near the
zenith Andronleda veiied her newly-dis-
covered giories from the naked eye in the
south the steady pointers far beneath the
pole, looked meekly by from the depths of
the north TO their sovereign.
Such was the glorious spectacle as ] en-
tered the train. AS We proceeded the timid
approach of twilight became more pereepti-
bic; the intense blue of the sky began to
soften the smaller stars. like little children,
went first to rest; the sister-beams of the
Pleiades soon melted together; but the
bright consultations of the west and north
remained unchanged, Steadily the won
drous TRANSPORTATION went by. Hands OF
angels, hidden FROM mortal eyes, shifted the
scenery of the heavens, and the glories of
night dissolved into the glories of dawn
The blue sky now turned more softly gray !;
the great watch-stars shut up their holy
eyes; the east began to kindle- Faint streaks
of purple soon blusbed along the sky; the
whole celestial concaye was filled with the
infowing tides of the morning light which
came pouring down from above in one great
radiance !; till at length, as we reached the
Blue Hills, a fash of purple fire blazed out
from above the horizon, and turned the
dewy tear-drops of flower and leaf into ru
bies and diamonds. In few seconds the
everlasting gates of the morning were
thrown wide open, and the lord of day. ar
rssved in glories too severe for the gaze of
man began his state.-EUerett.

The TRUE MAN-The true man is brave.
He dares do all that may become man.
No fear of eensure, or presumption, or world
ly loss can hinder him from marching
straight forward in the path of duty. He
is moral hero I; and neither the ridicule
nor the injuries of the world can make him
swerve from the right. He is brave enough
to disregard enmity; and has also the high
er and more difficult courage TO perseyere
agrinst the allurements OF friendship and
the Establishments of love.

Forest Hill-Junction of the Ne
OSllo and Cottonwood Rivers.

FOREST HILL, with its numerous advan-
4 tages, Is now paramount to all other places.
as 1t Is situated on the north side and to the
Junction of the Neosho and Cottonwood Rivers
The elevated position which the above named town
occupies, gives commanding view of the coun-
try all around, confirming the many fattering re-
ports which have already been made by all trav-
elers, who are constantly coming this way to Eli
up the fertile valleys of the Neosho and Cotton
wood. TIE clear, cold water of the streams tells
we'll for the health and prosperity of the country
The abundance of sand which the Neosho and
Cottonwood furnish, makes this location more de-
siribie than any one south of the Knnzas River.
Limestone and building stone of the very best
quality readily be obtained in unlimited guam
titles with little or no expense. Contracts are be-
ing made for lime at the kiln for % cents per
bushel.
Two brick kilns are in successful operation, the
first and only yards of the kind in this section of
country, and contracts are being made at six dol
lars per thousand. A steam saw mill, within "a
stones throw of the town, in active operation
and contracts daily filled of the best quality of
lumber for S25 and $50 per thousand feet. A sec
ond Saw and Grist mill, a large and extensive
scale, will soon be completed by the Messrs Baker
The Blacksmitlling and Plow factory is being
carried on by Messrs. Stevenson d Bunnell, who
are supplying the country with home manufactur-
ed articles, thus preparing the way for the hus-
bandman to turn over the soil in order that part
of the grassy plains may give way for the golden
grain which will soon cover this valley far and
wide.
The large number of buildings which are al
ready under contract give full assurance that Il
large town must soon spring up TIVE Stores are
prepared for trade. The vanguard of Emi-
grants who have not as yet found a home on this
frtie soil invited To come to the rich Valley of
the Neosho and share with those who are busy at
work building for themselves homes in the land Of
the west.
The most direct route apd best road from Leav-
enwGrth and the Missouri river Is by way of To-
peka where the emigrant can the Kanzas riv-
er by the elegant and substantial bridge just fn-
shed. the first ahd only bridge across that river;
thence by way of Brownvile, Wilmington and
Wat rloo to Forest Hill, thus making direct and
good route to Eagle City, Shell Rock Falls, Verdi
girls and Walnut creek country;
The natural crossing which the junction at
fords, is one of the many reasons why the south
ern emigration crosses this way Preparations are
being made for the speedy construction of good
Bridge at the Junction, for the better aecommoda-
ton of the emigrant.
