VISITING IN MEXICAN HACIENDA.-A
little before dark we came to the hacienda OF
Santa Rosita dc Cocoyotla, another sugar
plantation which was to be our headquarters
for some days past. Represented our letter
of introduction from the owner OF the estate,
and the two administrators received us with
opcn arms. We were conducted into the
strangers sleeping room, a long, barrack-l'ko
looking apartment, with stone walls and
stone floor that seemed refres lingly dark and
cool We could look out through Its barred
red windows into the garden, where rapid
little stream of water running along the chan
mel just outside, made a pleasant gurghng
sound. Appearances were deluslve, however
and it was only the change from the outside
that made US feel the inside cool and pleasant:
For DAYS onr clothes clupg to us as 1t we had
been drowned, and the pocket handksrchlefs
with which we mopped our faces had to be
hung on chair backs to dry. Except IN the
early morning, there was no GOODNESS IN that
swcltering place. In one corner OF our room
[ lscerned brown toad OF monstrous SIZE,
squatting in great comfort on the damp ilags'
He was as big as trussed chicken, ana iooS'
ed something like one in the twilight. we
pointed him out TO the administrators, VINO
brought in two fierce watch-dogs, but the toad
set up his back and spirited his acrld liquor
and the dogs could not be got to 60 near him
We stirred him up with y bamboo ard drove
him into the garden, but he left his portrai
painted in slime upon our floor.
Our beds were like those in genera use II

, durable, and even the pillows become NUS
ancc. The frame Of tic bed has piece Of
coarse cloth stretched tightly over it !; a shce
is laid upon his,and another sheet covers th'

Eternity.

Eternity has no gray hairs. The flowers
fade, the heart withers, man grows old and
dies the world lies down in the sepulchre OF
aces, but time writes no wrinkles on eternity.
Eternity Stupendous thought The ever
present, unborn, undecaying, and undyng'
the endless chain. Comprising life of God.
the golden chain, entwining the dcstlnles OF
the universe Earth has it's beauties, but
time shrouds them for the grave; its honors
are but the sunshine of an hour; It's palaces,
they are but gided sepulchres ; its pleasures
they are bursting bubbles. Not so In the
untricd bourne. In the dwellings of the Al
mighty can come no footsteps of decay. Its
way will know no dalkening-eternal splen-
dor forbids the approach of night.

TIE WAR.-The Western 1drocate contains
some excellent meditations on war. The fol-
lowing is the closing paragraph
"Alas, how great calamity, how terrible
an evil is war! How could a Christian man
reconcile himself to it, but for the consldera-
tion that it may be instead of greater evil,
like the amputation of limb to save LIE In
the midst of scenes such as these through which
we are now passing, what a consolation is it to
have faith in God Miserable is that man who
has no Almighty Father to 60 to in trouble !!
thousands of pous h hearts 6s n1sE,e nri ooe
calm in their confidence that however fierce
NAV be the rage of war, he will overrule the
evil for good, making even the wrath Of man to
praise him, and restraining the remainder. In
our shortsigh,edness we may not bo able even to
conjecture the grand results But OF this we
NAV be assured, that God, in answer TO prayer,
will take advantage Of these upheavlngs and
co,rntotions in our land to advance his oWr
cause in the earth Let our faith be ln him
and our prayers continually before him.

READING FOR THE SoLDIERs.-Rev. Mr.. Hep
worth remarked to his congregation Sunday
morning that almost the only thing which our
soldiers need and which we at home can supply
was books In ordinary times, the soldier has
as many as six hours of each day to himself II
certainly should do so. In stormy weather
three quarters of each regiment have the aohole
dan at their own command, They can all read,
and have time and again expressed the wish to
Mr.. Hepworth that he would send them some
thing to road. The surgeon at Fortress Monroe,
DR.. Kimball, and the surgeon at Newport
News, DR.. Saville, and the chaplain at the he
lay House, all spoke of the necessity of some
such enterprise on the part of the soldiers )
friends. l+.
Our Tract Society is making liberal proyis-
ions. Let the reading be circulated among
them.
