gone through work, Play-time must
come after school-time, otherwise it loses
its SAVIOR. Play, after all, is a relative
thing; it is not a thing which has an abb

as play, except to the worker Light
your lamp in the sunshine, and it is no
thing you must have darkness around
you to make its presence felt. To enjoy
leisure, you must know something of the
effects of toll.

ANTI-ABOLITION TRACTS.

LNOR TWENTY-FIVE OR THIRTY YEARS,
A the Abolitionists have deluged the coun-
try with innumerahle books, pamphlets, and
tracts intoxicating their false and pernicious
doctrines. Little or nothing has ever been
done in the same way towards counteraetinC
their influence. Thousands now feel that such
publications are indispensably necessary. In
order to supply what it is believed is a wide
felt want, the undersigned have determined
to issue series Of Anti-AbolitIon Tracts. q"
embracing concise discussion of current po-
hucal issues, in such a cheap and popular
form, and at such merely nominal price for
large quantities, as ought to secure for them
very extensive circulation. Two numbers
of these Tracts have already been issued. No.

OF our present deplorable difficulties, and
shows how and how only, the Union can be
restored. No. is brief history of the Re
suits of Emancipation, showing its wretched
and miserable failure, and that Negro Free
dom is simply tax on White Labor. The
facts in relation TO the real condition Of the
Freed Negroes in Hayd, Jamaica, ETC., have
been carefully suppressed by the abolition pa
pers but they ought TO be laid before the pub
lie at once, SO that the evils which now atilict
Mexico, Hayti, and all countries where the
Negro-equalizing doctrines have heen tried
may be ayerted from our country forever.

THE ENGINE REVERSED.

When Abraham Lincoln mounted the car of
State, he announced in his own elegant phrase
ology, that he intended to "run the machine as he
found it" After two years hard fighting, he
seems to haye ceased comparing bis government to
a mighty machine, aud likens il to shoe shop;
for he talks only of 'peggiDg away, pegging
away"
On our side, we have made no comparisons.
Nevertheless, We too have a machine TO run as
well as Lincoln, and at first il was the aim Of
everybody to put on a full head Of steam and run
strait through TO the terminus of Independence
without stopping. All the passengers we're in
good humor with the Conductor aud the engi.
neers, and above ALL with each other. The train
feg ahead, and the trip promised to be short and
pleasant one.
But of late the engine has been reversed. That

How things have changed since the engine was

PINs.-Beiore the invention of pins in 1545,
ladies used to fasten their dresses with skewers
made of wood, bones and ivory. At first pins
we're considered luxury, and not fit -for, common
use They were prohibited being sold in open
shops, except On TIVE days Of the year, in the be-
ginning of January. At this time husbands gave
their wives money to buy few pins. This mon
ey allowed wife for her own private expenses is
still called pin money. We would not be surprs-
ed to see similar state of things exist new, tor
the price of pins we have no doubt, is at present
quite as high as they were in 1913.

MARRIAGE OF TIE SULTAN's DACGBTEF-In
the beginning of the present year one Of the Tur-
ksh Suan's daughters married. There was
a magnificent display Of luxury and wealth the
occasion. The cost was fabulous" The modus
of royal husband taking is TINS described by a
corresp spondegt of the New York World:
If one Of the Sultan's daughters has attained
the age at which Turkish girls generally mar
ricd, the father seeks husband for her among the
mobiles of his court. If young mao specially
pleases her he is given the rank of Lieut. General,
nothing lower being ever selected. The chosen
man receives in addition magnificent, fully fur
nished palace and sixty thousand pasters a month
pocket money and in addition his father-in-law
defrays all the housekeeping expenses. The bride.
groom is not always aud above pleased at be-
ing selected. If be be married he is obliged to
get digorcc; he must never have a wife or mis-
tress in addition TO the princess and, moreover,
he is regarded as the servant rather than the hus-
band of his wife. The Sultan himself announces
to him his impending good foftune, and 1t IS his
bounden duty to bow revcreDt4Ily, kiss the Sui
tan feet, and stamIaer few words about the high
honor, the unex pected happiness. &c He then
proceeds With the chamberlaln, who wears the i'm
pcrial hat to the Sublime Porte. military band
r1eeedes him. and soldiers are drawn up along the
road who preseLt arms. At the head of the stair
case the bridegroom is received BY the grand vi
zier conducted by him into room whe,e all min
isters are assembled, and the hiatt is read aloud.
This ceremony corresponas'to the betrothal.
