prohibiting under penalty the open

excepting cases of necessity ana char

operation persons who conscientiously
observe the seventh day of the week

the laws of the State, and therefore

THE corn crop of the United States
for this season is estimated at nine
hundred million of bushels which at
an average of forty cents would be
worth S36,OGO,OOO. OF this amount
there were used in Ohio in 1858, TO
fatten hogs eight million bushels, ten
millions of bushels were made into
whisky, and two or three millions
more were used to fatten cattle with.
Thus the surplus corn of Ohio is made
into various kinds of food and liquor,
and forms an important staple of COM

THE ANGELS OF THE HOUSE.

'Tis said that ever round our path
The unseen angels stray,
That give us blissful dreams by night,
And guard our steps by day.
But there's an angel in the house,
Meek, watchful and sincere,
That whispers words of hope to us
When none besides are near;
1t is the one, the chosen one,
That's linked to us for life,
The angel of the happy home,
The faithful, trusting wife.
IT'S said that angels walk the earth
I'm sure it must be So
When round our path; scarce seen by us,
Such bright things come and go.
Are there not beings by our side
As fair as angels are?
As pure, as stainless as the forms
That dwell beyond the star?
Yes! there are angels of the earth,
Pure, innocent and mild,
The angels of our hearts and homes,
Each loved and loving child.

The great annual ceremonies of the
Mohammedan faith at Mecca termina-
ted on tho 18th of October, in the
presence of about $4,000 pilgrims, of
whom 1850 had come by sea, and
82,15O by land. In 1858 there were
100000 pilgrims; in 1857. 100000 /;
and in 1856, 100000 This great de-
crease in the number in 1859 is owing,
the natives declare, to the events last
wear at Jeddah, and also to the dread
Of the cholera, which made extensive
raYages in 1858.

Il Grain Of Go7d.-Edward Ever
EFT is the most elegant rhetorician in
America. Here is little allegory
taken from one of bis agricultural
speeches. Is it not gem?
drop grain of the California
gold in the ground, and there it will
lie unchanged TO the end of time
The clods on which it falls are not
more cold and lifeless. Drop grain
Of our blessed gold into the gro und,
and 10! a mistery. In a few days it
softens-it shoots upwards-it is liv-
ing thing. 1t is yellow itself, but it
sends up an emerald green through
the soil-it expands to a vigorous
stalk-revels in the sunshine-itself
more glorious than Solomon, in its
futtering, leafy robes, whose sound,
as the west wind whispers through
them, falls as pleasantly on the hus-
bandman's ear as :he rustic of his
sweetheart's garment, still towers
aloft, spius its verdant sheens of veg
etable floss, displays its fancy tassels,
surchargcd with fertilizing dust, and
at last ripens into two or three mag
nifeent batons like this, ian ear Of

hundreds of grains of gold, every one
possessing the same wonderful proper

STEAM:-More than any other ma
terial agency, steam is advancing the
cause of civilization, and revolution
izing the commercial and business OPP
erations of the world. A subtle va
por, which. fifty years ago performed
scarcely a higher function for man
than to loosen the jackets of his po-
tatoes, has become an all pervading
spirit-the steed that drags the ship,
the car, and drives the kissing wheel
TO which millions of spindlcs sing in
unison the great song of modern la
Dor. A Titan in strength and speed,
it has given human enterprise an ubi.
quitv heretofore unknown.
The hatterer who proposed to hew
Mount Athos into statue of Alexan-
der, even if he could have fulfilled
his boast, is beaten by this impalpa-
BILE spirit of our day. which directed
by the genius of man shrinks from
no tasks. To level mountains and
exalt valleys-to snag rivers and
dredge ocean harbors, is to it compar-
ative p astime. In the depths of the
mine, in the vaults of the newspaper,
in the factory and the forge, it gives
life to arms which cast forth freight
age for the tradesmen of the world.
The glory of winged ships has de-
parted. Steam has made wind Sec
ondary element for the propulsion of
commerce.
Wonderful indeed is the transition.
Scarcely a score of years ago philos-
ophers demonstrated the impossibilty
of steamships crossing the ocean; now
thousands of them ride the seas in
majesty, bearing the travel. the cor
respondence. and the commerce of the
world. Space is abridged, uncertainty
banished, Trade has found an agent
it can trust, and fresh vigor glows in
all its aspect The earth gives up
new treasures; the Wilderness recedes
before the march of steam. If we
were not familiarized to the wonder
fuI, all this would seem rather the
transformation of some mighty en-
chanter, than the solid fruit of hu-
man discovery.

Dangerous Habit.-The Harrisburg
(Pa.) Telegraph says; "A lady had
the habit of picking her teeth with
pins. A trifing humor was the con-
sequence. which terminated in a can
Ger. The brass and quicksilver used
in making these pins will account for
this circumstance. Pins are always
pernicious to the teeth, and should
never be used for tooth picks"

AT ball given in Nottingham, in
honor of Lord Howe's victory on the
first of June, 1894, amidst the glare
of diamonds, pearls and plumes, there
was one lady whose head-dress con-
sisted of simple wreath, formed from
a branch of natural oak. On the fol-
lowing morning, after breakfast, the
Countess Howe, in presence of the
company, planted three of the acorns
taken from the wreath. They germi-
mated, aud at this day form three
handsome trees. While thus evinc-
ing her taste, the lady could not have
found a more efficient method of per-
petuating her memory.

A JAPAN criminal was condemned
bv the Sultan to fight large royal
tiger, whose ferocity was raised to
the highest point by want Of food and
artificial irritation. The only weapon
allowed to the human combatant was
dagger with the point broken off.
After wrapping a cloth round his left
fist and arm, the man entered the are
ma with an air of undaunted coolness,
and fixed a steady, menacing gaze
upon the brute. The tiger sprang
furiously upon his intended victim,
who, with extraordinary boldness and
rapidity, thrust his left fist into the
gaping Jaws, and at the same moment,
with his keen though pointless dag
ger, ripped up the beast to the very
heart. In less than minute the Ii
ger lay dead at his conquerer's feet.
The criminal was no. only forgiven,
but ennobled by his sovereign.
