True C0ntentment.

In this age Of restlessness and wild spec.
ulatlon, when SO many arc searching ca
gerly for happiness, sighing after numerous
disappointments, Who Will show us any
good " it is refreshing to meet with a con-
tented Christian heart, which has found
true peace by living in constant commu-
Mon with God. In one of our exchanges
we find the following Said venerable
farmer some eighty years old, to a relative
who had lately visited him, q have liv-
cd on this farm for more than half a centu-
ry. ! have no desire to change my resi-
dence as long as | live on earth. / have
worshipped the God Of my fathers with the
same people for more than forty years
During this time | have rarely been absent
from the sanctuary on the Sabbath, and
have never lost one communion season. [
have never been confined to my bed by
sickness for single day. The blessings
Of God have been richly spread around me,
and | made up my mind long ago, that if
| wished to be happier, must have more

Three Pugilistic Deacons.

The Cleveland Plaindealer says the fol
! lowing is true account:-In a small neigh
borhood in Geapga county, Ohio, lived
three dcaeons. The first is Methodist.
the second a Presbyterian, and the third a
Baptist. All live quite distance from
their respective meeting houses, and as
travelling is excessively bad at this time of
the year they concluded to hold meetings
In the little red school house in the neigh
borhood. The question then arose which
denomination should hold the first meeting
The Methodist claimed the privilege Of
opening the ball. The Presbyterian de-
manded it. The Baptist insisted upon it.
Here was a fix They wrangled over the
matter until the anger to each deacon arose
to teverish heat, and each vowed he would
hold a meeting in the red school house the
very next evening, which happened to be
Friday last, and On that evening at early
candlelight the school house was crowded
with Methodists, Presbyterians, Baptists,
and several worlds people The Presby-
terian commenced reading a catechism.
The Baptist, at the same time, arose and
commenced reading tract on immersion.
The Methodist, at the same time, struck
up an old fashioned hymn, shouting it at
the top of his lungs. The effect was ludi-
crous. 1t apparently struck the mixed
congregation so, for they all commenced
laughing. The Baptist was wheczy. He
sunk exhausted into his seat, while the
Presbyterian and Methodist continued.
All at once the ludicrousness of the scene
struck the Baptist, and he INDUCED in a
protracted horse laugh. This displeased
the Presbyterian, and forgetting himself,
he dealt the Baptist stunning blow under
the right ear The Methodist threw his
hymn book down and rushed to the Bap-
lists rescue. He arrived just in time to
receive Presbyterian iron fist between his
eyes. The Baptist and Methodist rallied,
and together attacked the Presbyterian,
but he was too much for them She scene
that ensued, beggars description Chairs
were overturned. Window glass was bro
ken. Women shrieked. Men Yelled
We have no wish to make fun of an affair
which has caused profound regret among
the religious people Of Geauga We mere
ly relate the facts. The matter is in litiga-
tion.

a Religious Belief

The following lines were taken from Sir
humphrey Davies Salmonia: q envy no
quality of mind and intellect in others
be 1t genius, power, wit or faney-but if [
could choose what would be most delight
iul, and, | believe, most useful to me. I
should prefer religious belief to any other
blessing; for it makes life discipline Of
goodness; breathes new hopes; vanishes
and throws over decay, the destruction of
existence, the most gorgeous light; ava
hens life even in death, and from corrup-
ton and decay calls up beauty and divini-
ty; makes fortune and name the ladder Of
ascent to Paradise; and far above all COM

Time and Eternity.

We step upon the earth we look abroad
over 1t, and 1t seems immense-so does the
sea. What ages had men lived-and knew
but a small portion. They circumnavigate
It now with speed under which its vast
bulk shrinks. But let the astronomer lift
up his glass, and he learns to believe in a
total mass OF matter, compared with which
this great globe itself becomes an impon-
derable grain Of dust. And 50 to each of
US walking along the road Of life, a year.
a day, or an hour shall seem long. As we
grow older, the time shortons but when
we hit our eyes to look beyond this earth,
our seventy years, and the few thousands
OF years Which have rolled over the human
face, vanish into Il point; for then we are
measuring Time against Eternity.

Natural Hlstory-The Flirt.

This brilliant insect of the butterfly
species is common to all attitudes, but
flourishes best in warm climate 1t rev.
els in the atmosphere of the ball room,
the matine, the artistic reunion; and while
it loves publicity, it is not lotho to lurk in
shaded alcOves or to nestle among cushions
in quiet corners.
The plumage Of the female Flirt is very
dazzling. 1t is clad in the most radiant
smiles, and compliments Of the softest and
most delicate shades, while its eyes have a
strange, deep and penetrating lustre.
1t diffuses faint yet thrilling perfume
caught from crushed flowers, scent-bags
and billetdoux Its music is low, persua-
siye hum. 1t can be true to no tune, but
sings snatches, and at the piano, runs over
the keys with light and tremulous touch
The volatility of this insect has long
peplexed naturalists. 1t battles pursuit
Strange to say, it dissolves to the touch,
and when caught, is handful of ashes
cold and colorless.
The sting of the firt is very severe
Some say it is poisonous Instances have
been known where it has proved fatal to
happiness and hope. 1t is inflicted with
perfect impartiality, but seems to strike
deepest into fresh and honest hearts
The Flirt languishes at the first chill
breath Of sorrow. When storm is in the
all. it is pitiful to see it seeking shelter, its
gay plumage 50 beaten and soiled, and the
color and perfume gone, and the low invi-
ting music changed to despairing plant.
The fame that it futters around gener-
ally burns it at last, as is the case with
many poor MOTH Fanity Far,

What Should Be Tanrht.

Common schools would have done q
great deal more good to the people if they
had paid more attention to the physical
and mathematical sciences. Probably four
titths of the pupils Of common schools are
destined to make their living in some of
the mechanical arts, or the workshops of
the country. Yet how very little does the
practical training they receive at our schools
1t them for eminence in their professions.
Natural philosophy is ignored Just as much
as If no such knowledge existed Bows
leave shool to work at trades, knowing moth
ing at all Of the principles Of mechanics,
which lie at the foundation Of their prolcs-
sions. Great care is taken with them in
elegant and ornamental pcnmauship, but
not single hour is devoted 10 the drawing
Of mathematical figures, or to making prac-
tical draughtsmen Of pupils Geometry is
scarcely touched, grammar and geography
Being considered more important Hence
much Of the information which the pupil
spends the earlier periods Of lis life in
learning, is Of but little use to him when
he leaves school, and is forgotten entirely.
unless his after pursuits require it, That
which would have. been practically useful to
him, and which would have made bis la
b7rs in his profession q source Of pleasure
and Of solid acquisition, instead Of being
task to be got rid Of as soon as possible and
never thoroughly comprehendcd, is not
learned at all. The true value Of educa-
ton is the uses to which it can be put,
and that would seem certainly to be the
best education which enables the pupil to
put the knowledge gained at school to i'm
mediate use in maintaining himself re-
specially and independently in society
Not simply himself but the world, would
receive the benefit Of an educational sys-
TEN which would substitute physical and
mathematical science for great deal which
is now taught, Or at least divide the time
OF study, SO that the most useful should
have at least as fair share of attention as
that which is less so.
