Ninter nnd the Poor.

A contemporary says:-"H Heaven help
the poor this winterl The initiation Of
the currency just begins to be felt
in every avenue of business. Everything
is on the rise--calicoes, muslins, woelens,
wood, coal, beef, potatoes, -four, rents,
etc. They all feel the hectic flush which
'greenbacks' impart." 1t is oil very well
to call on Heaven to help the poor, but
while nearly all of "Christ's vicegerents
on earth" are loud and long in their cla-
mors for war and the distress aud suffer.
ings thereof, little hope may be enter
tanned of Divine assistance; presumiDg
that the Abolition war resolutions OF
many Religious" associations express
the will of the Almighty in regard to
American affairs We fear that in the
great ministerial ana religious thirst af-
ter warlike and political knowledge, that
crippled veterans will have to beg aims
at the street corners of the cities for an
other year while department clerks make
out their pension papers, and soldiers
widows will be forced to continue theiI
wanderings through the rural districts
in search Of sewing whereby to suppor
the lives of fatherless children. W.
fear the poor will find little commiSsera
ton for their sufferings in the madness
of the times. Sympathy for soldiers i
greater than for their families. Militia
ry suffering excites a feeling that the do
mestic woes and privations Of civil lif
fail to touch. We fear that unless heaV
en- does help The poor, no other powe
can be found which will" . .

man happening to sit at Church in a
pew adjoining one in which sat young
lady for whom he conceived q sudden
and violent passion, and was desirous
of entering into a courtship on the spot;
but the place not suiting formal dec

gested the following plan: He politely
handed his fair neighbor Bible, open,

Second Epistle Of John, verse fftb:-
"And now I beseech thee lady, not as

unto thee, bnt which we had from the

She returned it, pointing to the second
chapter Of Ruth, verse tenth. --"Then
she fell on her face and bowed herself

that l am q stranger?" He returned
the book, pointing to tie the thirteenth

THE SCULPTOR BOY.

aChisel in hand stood a sculptor boy,
With his marble block before him,
And his face lit up with smile Of joy,
As on angel dream passed Ger him.
He carved the dream on that shapeless stone,
With many sharp incisiOn;
With Heavens own light the Sculptor's shonc,
He had caught the angel vision.
Sculptor's of life are we as we stand
with our souls uncarved before US
Waiting the hour, when, at Gods command,
Our life dream passes Ger us.
" we carve it there on that yielding stone
With many sharp incision,
Its heavenly beauty shall be our own,
Our lives that angel vision. L

Death of John Randolph.

John Randolph, of Roanoke, was near
his end. Dr. was sitting by the
table, and his man John sitting by the
bed, in perfect silence, when he closed
his eyes, and for few moments seemed,
by his hard breathing, to be asleep. But,
as the sequel proved, it was the intense
working of bis mind. Opening his keen
eyes upon the doctor, he said, sharply,
"remorse, ,"-soon afterward more en-
phatically, "REMoRsE. presently, at the
top of his strength, he cried out, "RE-
MORSE !" He then added, Let me
see the word" The doctor, not COM
pretending his desire, made no reply.
} Randolph then said to him with great
energy, "Let me see the word; show it
me in dictionary" The doctor looked
around and told him he believed there
was none in the room. write it, then,"
said Randolph. The doctor perceiving
one of Randolph's engraved cards lying
on the table, wrote the word in pencil
under the printed name, and handed it

ness, seemed much agitated. After few
seconds, he handed back the card, say
ing, Write it on the other side."
The doctor did so, in large letters. =
He took it again, and after gazing upon
it few seconds, returned it, and said,
"Lend John your pencil, and let him put
stroke under it." John took the pen.
Gil and did so, leaving it on the table.
"Ahl" said the dying mar, "Remorse

added presently, II cast myself on the
Lord Jesus Christ for mercy"

'Taking the Clock to Pieces.

ness, took walk into the open air, and
forgot to return. In continuation Of
his narrative he says: "Those politicians
who went to work to take the Union
clock to pieces to get their diuners, nev-
er meant to put it together again. They
have stolen their dinner but they will
not restore the clock"
How true this is. The miserable
bunglers have taken the Union clock to
pieces and now, if they would, could
not put it together again in as good
running order as they found it. But
they do not even wish to do it-they
make no effort. They we're in hurry
to work the mischief-they are in none

And those who foresaw the consequences
of their parricdal efforts, were weak,
womanly Union savers" of whom Mas.
sachusetts Wilson said scofingly, "This
sitting up with the Union does not pay
expenses" And so, piece by piece
wheel by wheel, they took the Union
clock to pieces. The Southern rebels
who took part in the operation have
made nothing by it. but the Northern
diSunionists, including office-holders o
all grades, civil and military, contract
ors, &c, are now dining" glnttonously
at the nations expense. And the coun

in ock-mending never meant, and nev

Grain Produce at Chicago.

The receipts of -four and grain at
Chicago during the past two months
have been Notwithstanding to g.
1914 bushels wheat-showing an in.
crease over the receipts during the same
time last year Of l,O97, ,42S bushels. The
receipts of corn show large decrease
the entire receipts for September and
October being only 3,9l7,5l3 bushels
against I ,68O,O49 bushels last year. =
This decrease is the result of the early
Frost but does not fairly represent the
extent Of damage, we think; as the
growers have held back their supplies
for higher prices, which is usually the
case in times Of excitement in the mar.
ket, when prices rapidly advance.
There are no shipments Of grain from
New York to Europe on war orders, be-
cause prices are lower on the other side
Of the Atlantic than they'are here.

StOneWall JackSOm's Admission

vas much amused at the rebel pris-
oners' account Of Stonewall Jackson's
admission into Heaven. They were
strong admirers Of General Jackson,
and especially of the great success of
his flank movements. "The day after
his DEATH" said they, "two angels came
down from Heaven to carry General
jackson back with them. They search
ed oil through the camp but they could
not find him, They went to the hospi-
tai, and to every other place where they
thought themselves likely to find him,
but in vain. Finally they were forced
to return without him. What was their

While the newspapers ofthe day have

He goes to claim bis reward. 1t is q
lifetime of mournful remembrance to
woman, o ceaseless lament over that fate
against which she was helpless,
No one ever blamed Venus for loving
Mars, and we take it, it comes as natur-
al for woman to love a soldier as to
breathe. Consequently we hear of wo'
men as vivaudieres, ofwomen accompa'

themselves in the rough masculine gart

of women lowering like ministering an

Woman has now been tested. Tit

GOOD. D.NIGHT:

Downward sinks the setting sun,
Soft the evening shadows fall;
Light is flying,
Day is dying,
Darkness steareth over all.
Goodnight!
Autumn gamers in her stores
Hastens on the fading year;
... Leaves are dying,
Winds ore signing,
Whispering of the winter near.
Goodnight!
Youth is vanished, manhood wanes,
Age its forward shadow throws;
Day is dying,
Years are flying,
Life runs onward to its close.
