From the New York Independent
The Eternal Goodness.
BY JOHN q. WHITTIER,

lIltHuSl Win WHOM my Ieet nave tfOQ
The quiet aisles Of prayer,
Glad witness to your zeal for God
And love Of men bear.
] trace your lines of argument;
Your logic linked and strong,
Iweigh as one who breads dissent,
And fears a doubt as wrong.
But still my human hands are weak
To hold your iron creeds;
Against the words ye bid me speak
Ny heart within me pleads.
Who fathoms the Eternal Thoughtl
WHO talks Of scheme andpan'
The Lord is God He needeth not
The poor device of man.
1 walk with bare, hushed feet the ground
Ye tread with boldness shod;
dare not fix with mete and bound
The love and power Of God.
Ye praise His justice; even such
His plying love deem;
Ye seek king; fiin would touch
The robe that hath no seam.
Ye see the curse which overbroods
A world Of pain and loss;
hear our Lords beatitudes
And prayer upon the cross.
More than your schoolmen teach, within
Myself, alas, Iknow
Too dark ye cannot paint the sin,
Too small the merit show.
/ bow my forehead to the dust,
veil mine eyes for shame,
And urge, in trembling self-distrust,
A prayer without claim.
see the wrong that round me lies,
feel the guilt within;
hear, with grcans and travail-cries,
The world confess its sin;
Yet in the maddening maze of things,
ana toSheu Dy bluTm ana HODu,
To one fixed star my spirit clings;
know that God is good.
Not mine to look when eherubim
And seTaphs may not see,
But nothing can be good in Him
Which evil is In me.
The wrong that pains my soul below
dare not throne above:
know not of His hate-I know
His goodness and His love.
dimly guess from blessings known
OF greater out Of sight,
And, with tho chastened Psalmist, own
His judgments too are right,
/ long for household voices gone,
For vanished smiles long,
But God hath led my dear ones on,
And He can do no wrong,
know not what the future hath
OF marvel or surprise,
Assured alone that life and death
Ills mercy underlies.
And If my heart and flesh are weak
To bear an untried pain,
The bruised reed he will not break,
But strengthen and sustain.
No offering Of my own I have,
" Nor works my faith to prove;
can but give the gifts He gave,
And plead His love for love.
And so beside tAc Silent Sea
wait the muffled oar;
No harm from Him can come to me
On ocean or on shore.
/ know not where His islands lift
Their fronted balms in air;
I only know cannot drift
Beyond His love and care,
o brothers if my faith is vain,
If hopes like these betray,
Pray for me, that my feet may gain
The sure and safer way.
And Thou, o Lord by whom are seen
Thy creatures as they be,
Forgive me If too close lean
Ny human heart on Thee!

We find the following excellent article In an
old book, and copy and desire to call it to par
ticular attention. 1t embodies hints and sug-
gestions which, properly acted upon, will GER
tainly make any mans fortunes. We could
demonstrate this if it were necessary by a long
sermon ON each paragraph. But we won't do
it now. The reader can cut out the article
and preserve it for frequent study and refer
ence.
In passing from one engagement to another,
during the day, there are often small portions
of time for which you make no provision, and
