No TRIFLEs.-There are no such things as
trifes in the biography of man. Drops make
up the sea. Acorns cover the earth with oaks,
and the ocean with navies. Sands make up
the bar in the harbor's mouth on which vessels
are wrecked; and little things in youth accu-
mulate into character in age, and destiny in
eternity. All the links in that glorious chain
which is in all and around all, we can see and
admire, or at least admit; but the staple to
which all is fastened, and which is the conduc-
tor of all, is the Throne of Deity.

Below we give an extract from private
letter, which makes some very sensible re-
marks 10 regard to the proper tone that
should characterize letters from home to our
brave boys, absent at the seat of war. A
despondent or iorebodipg letter exercises a
very injurious influence, and tends to pro-
duce morbid anxiety in the mind of its re-
cipient, while cheerful and hopeful missive
is messenger Of joy, an aid to courage,
and an incentive to brave and manly
deeds:-
"Your letters all have chee; ful and live
ly appearance, and that is what does one
good, more than you can have any idea of,
for if there is anything that makes me mis-.
erabe it is letter full OF the blues. A good
long cheerful letter to soldier from home
does him more good than all the doctors 10
the army, tor o soldier has enough on his
mind without long discouraging letter from
home. For instance, the letter reaches him
when he is cold, wet and hungry, bis feelings
need staying up instead of being still worse
crushed. He may have just come from a
hard battle, he may have lost bis chum,fo we
all have them at such time as this, when
he feels sad and gloomy, he gets letter from
home full of all that goes wrong there, you
will see him fold up bis letter, put it away
with long drawn Sigh, be goes around,
takes no notice Of anything but yields to
bis own sorrow, wishing be could get let-
ter like one bis comrade had who is whist~
ling and singing around the camp, for he
has just got letter from home, and every
thing it contains is SO cheering and pleas
ant that he has forgotten all his trou-
bles his weary feet don't ache as bad as
they did, bis eyes, that little while before
were dull and heavy, now are bright and
smiling, be goes to some of the soldiers and
asks them if they too got letter from
home, perhaps they have not and out comes
bis precious letter and it is read over again,
and thus it does its good work, for be too
feels better for reading it over, again and
again. Mothers, wives and sisters, let me
urge you once more to give the bright side
of things to your soldier friends. Perhaps
your letter reaches them 10 the hospital,
they are weak from the effects of ,ain and
wounds, your letter may be anything but
cheering to them, the result is soon manifest.
Ask the doctors what the effect of good
pleasant letter from home is, and be will
tell you it does more good than medicine.
Bear it in mind friends, write cheerful let.

down into her eyes-her beautiful, bronze>

Henry Ward Beecher ON Newspapers.

Rev. HENRY WARD BEEcHER, in the
course of a sermon in the Plymouth Church,
Brooklyn, last Saturday night, made an
eloquent plea for newspapers, speaking Of
them as one of the most potent elements of
our civilization. "There is," said he, "a
common vulgor objection about newspapers
that they lie so; they don't lie any more
than you do, Man is naturally lying
creature. Truth is gift from Heaven,
and very few Of us possess it before they
get there. The newspaper gives both
facts and rumors, and they would be blamed
if they did not do so. 1t is for the reader
to judge of these rumors. The last econ
omy should be in regard to newspapers. 1t
is better to deprive the body of some rib
bon or jewel or garment, than to deprive
the mind OF its sustenance."

pearance and manner bore evidence of bis

spite of the poverty of his dress.
On being called out TO plead, the prisoner
admitted that be did kill Baldwin, and he
deplored the act, adding, however, that, on
his soul and conscience, he did not believe
himself guilty. Thereupon jury was i'm
