The BOY Preacher OF Louisiana.

Mark Bontner Chapman is now in his four
teenth year He was born in Clinton, Louis
ana, where his parents still reside. About
two years ago he was received in the Church,;
very soon after this he commenced instructing
his father servants on the afternoon Of every
Sabbath. His custom was to read chapter
and comment upon it, having first closely
studied the chapter, consulting Benson, Clark
and Wesley on every passage.
He at length began, says writer to the
Memphis Adrocdte, to speak in the lovefeasts
and closs-meetings then to pray in the public
congregation His appearance is that of the
merest boy, and he seems wholly unconscious
of any superior gifts or attainments He now
preached regularly every Sabbath at his faith
ers place, near town His parents have re-
fused TO allow him to enter the pulpit and sup
ply the place Of the regular minister on Sab
BATH although he is often solicited TO do so.
He does nothing without permission from his
parents He attends school, and Joins in all
the amusements of the boys of his own age;
he is a mere child everywhere, save when
preaching On last Sabbath | sat under his
ministry, and have seldom been moro edited
and delighted with sermon His style is
chaste, his words fitly and happily chosen.
The incest critic would not detect grammat-
ical error; his manner is earnest, and his pa
thetic appeals reach all hearts, Occasionally
his feelings overwhem him, and he gives way
to floods Of tears.
The most gifted lawyers, doctors and divines
have heard him with astonishment and delight
confess that il is most wonderful, and to me
incomprehensibe. When | heard him he
preached from the text "How long halt We be-
tween two opinionsY' He preached from
notes, sometimes seeming to forget that his
notes were before him. His subject was ar.
ranged with perfect system, and most logical
ly treated. When through with his sermon,
he closed the Book and gave a brief and
touching exhortation, under which | could
with others, but weep His public addresses
published have attracted much attention, and;
should he live, he must, in his onward course
leave a broad wake on the tide of morals
Such is the character of the "Boy Preacher"
whose wonderful precocity is without paral-

Little Against BIg words.

The purpose of the following lines, written
by the late Prof j. A. Alexander, and pub
ished in the Princeton Magazine, Is to illus.
rate the force of simple language Our rea'
ders will agree that it is well done.
MONOsYLlABfcs.
Think not that strength lies in big round word
Or TINT the brief and plain must needs he weak
TO whom can this he true who hns heard
The cry for help, the tongue TINT all men speak
When want or woe or fear is IN the throat,
So that each word gnsped out like n shrek
Pressed from the throat strange wild note
Sung BY some fly or iendg There II a strength
Which dies ii stretched too far spun too fine,
Which has more height than breadth, more depth
tlmn length.
Let hut this force Of thought and speech he mine
And he thnt will may take the sleek tat phrase
Which CLOVIS and burns not, though IL CLEAN and shine
Light, but no heat-a flash, but not q blnzc!
Nor is it in mere strength the short word boasts;
II serves for more thnn fight or storms to tell
Tie roar Of waves that clash rocl-bound coasts,
The crash of tall trees when the wild winds swell,
The roar Of guns, the groans Of men that die
ON blood stained fields II has voice az well
E9f teIn that hr off on their sek beds lie,
For them that weep, iOr them that mourn the dead,
For them that laugh and dance and clap the hand
Tojpy's quick step as well as grief slow tread;
The sweet plain words we learned ut first keep time
And though the theme be sad, or gay, or grand.
With ench with MI, these may be mnde 10 chime,
In thought or speech or song or prose or rhyme.

Sunday in Paris.

The Catholic Mirror is publishing a series
of letters from Europe, written by the Rev
Mr.. Obermyer, late pastor of St. Vincent :
Church, of Baltimore The reverend gentle
man, speaking of the observance of Sunday
in Paris, remarks
Amid so much that is gratifying in Paris
there is one thing that must shock and scan
dalze an American Catholic It is the awful
desecraton of the Lords day A person can
with difficulty perceive any outward difference
between Sunday and any other day in the
week. Here on Sunday all kinds of servile
work is performed To keep open stores and
shops is too bad; but il is worse TO see the ma.
son laying his stone, the carpenter busy at his
trade, the stone-cutter hewing his blocks, the
blacksmith hammering his iron, the cartman
hauling his sand and dirt the laborer digging
the foundation of houses, the scavenger clean
ing the streets, and the small hucksters sing.
ing out their little articles There seems 10
be no rest for man or beast This open, pub
lie violation Of one of the ten commandments
with the at least quasi sanction of the ruling
authorities, can not but draw scourge from
High Heaven Even after nightfall many OF
the retail stores on the Boulevard are kept
open, How long, have asked myself, shall
this scandal continue under rulers who are
officially styled Most Christian2

A Valuable Paint,

For the information of all who are wishing
to obtain cheap and valuable pnint for build
ings, | would say, take common clay, (the
same that our common bricks are made of J
dry pulverize, and run II through n seive, and
mix with linseed oil You then have a first
rate fre-proof paint, Of delicate drab color.
Put on as thick as practicable. If any one
has doubts with regard to the above just try
it on small scale--paint a shingle and let il
dry. Recollect that it must be mixed thicker
than common paints.
The clay, when first dug, will soon dry,
spread il in the air under shelter, or, if want
ed immediately, il may be dried in kettle
over a fire. When dry it will be in Jumps,
and can be pulyerizedb BY placing an iron kettle
few inches in the ground, containing the
clay and pounding It with the end of a billet
of hard wood, three inches in diameter, three
feet long, the lower eud TO be n little rounded.
Then sift it,
Any clay will make paint, but the colors
may differ, which can easily he ascertaned by
trying them on small scale as above ndicat-
ed BY burning the clay slightly, you will get
n light red, and the greater the heat you sub
ject it to, the brighter or deeper red Coua-
