PRACTICAL CHRISTIANITY

In little work By Gail Hamilton. just
published, that lady gives her idea Of Chris
tian as follows: -.f
If you wish to know whether you are
Christian inquire of yourself whether, in and
for the love of God, you seek to make happy
those about you by smiles and pleasant say
ings? Is it matter of concernment when you
sit dowp to your breakfast. to say a bright
word of sympathy or cndearment or playful
ness or cheer to your wife, your son, your
daughter? Do yon give Tommy prelimina-
ry toss as you place him in his high chair,
Or do you praise Kitty's first awkward attempt
to smooth her har?-Do you notice the little
arrangements that have been made for vour
comfort and convenience? Do you compl-
ment the cook on the nice coffee, or the light
bu ckwheat cakes, or the beautiful brown
toast which she sets before you particularly
if the cook bears your own name? When the
cat puts up her soft paw to remind you that
she is there, does your hand slide down to rub
her fur, and thus make her happier for your
thought of hcr-or, if the law of tho Medes
and Persians forbids her the dining room, do
you throw her a bit Of bread to console her
exile? Is the faithful dog rewarded by his
share, not only of food. but of fayoritism? If
you have yourself an unconquerable aversion
to cats and dogs, do you still SEQ to it that
their lives are not q burden TO them. IF you
meet a child crying in the street, do you en-
dcavor to console it? Do you ever buy pen
ny's worth of candy for the ragged boy who
is looking at it with eager eyes through the
shop window on Christmas eve? DO you take
pains now and then to speak cherry word to
the widow whose only son is gone on long
sea voyage? AS your sons and daughters ap-
proach maturity, do their obedience or affec-
ton increase or diminish? Do they 60 out
from your house as from prison or from home
with eager feet indeed or with a tender lingcr-
ing at the last' When you come into the
house, do you bring sunshine with you? If
there be a cloud On your brow, do your fami-
ly seem more anxious to dissipate it, Or get
out of your way? If your sons sec you on the
other side of the street, do they run over to
join you, or keep their own side till they are
obliged to cross? Do the clerks in your
warehouse, the carpenters who are building
your house, the Irshmen who are laying your
pipes, the plowman who is furrowing your
land, the gardener who is pruning your trees,
like to have you pass by, for the plcasantncss
Of your manner in commending their labor,
or the courtcousness with which you listen to
their complaints or requests, or the quiet con-
sderation with which you suggest alterations
and improvements DO mothers like to have
their sons work on your farm during the sum
mer months and do the boys like to come! In
short, arc you comfortable person to i've
with? Are you pleasant to have about?

conclusive beyond doubt. He was this af-

ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
BY JOSEPH MERREFiELD.

Oh Martyr to thy country's cause,
Upholder of her outraged laws,
A sorrowng nation weeps and draws
Around thy bier
Not even in thy hour of might
When in that holiest cause.-the right
Thy armiss put their foes to fight,
Vert thou so dear
Nor when thy pen, with power unspoken,
Proclaimed the bondsmen's S shackles broken,
And gave thy signature, in token,
A deathless fame.
Vert thou as loved, es priced as now,
When deaths pale chapet wreaths thy brow,
And but remains the patriots VOW,
Who breathes thy name
Oh mothers, teach each infants tongue
The name of him whose race is run,
Once Freedom snow Fame s-favorite son,
Though in the tomb
Oh banner of the azure field,
OF silvered stars and shining shield,
Craped be thy folds that never yield,
To show our Gloom

Two IN A BED Ned and Charley are
two room mates but they occupy different
beds. Ned's sleeping appartus was so situa-
ted that he could get in on either side--that
is to say, there were two foresides; which Ned
found very convenient,
One night, Ned and Charley had been out,
and on returning, which they did near morn
ing, both were considerable elevated How
ever, they walked to their room with an air
that seemed to say, ''not SO drunk after all, >
and sought long and patiently for matches
and lamp. After knocking the pitcher off the
washstand. and smashing the looking -gla IS,
the y finally gave up the search and went
to bed.
Went to bed--yes, that's the word, but
owing to the darkness and confusion of their
senses, they made slight mistake In short.
Ned's bed had the honor of receiving the two
friends Charley getting in on one side, and
his friend rolling in on the other.
II say Ned" cried Charley, touching some
body's calf, there's fellow in my bed.
Wonderful coincidence exclaimed Ned
feeling strange elbow in the neighborhood
of his ribs; there's one in mine too
Is there? cried Charley; let's kicl

Agreed !? said Ned. Ne2
And accordingly the two friends began I,

and Ned was sprawling on the floor. Char
ley was left in possession of the bed. FoI

VACANCY IN THE SCHOOL BoARD.-The
death of Judge Bailey leaves q vacancy In
the board of education which it is the duty of
the remaining members, (Mr. Mitchell and
Mr.. Charl % Buford) to fill. The amended
school law, passed ia March, 1859, provides,
in Sec 2, as follows:
So soon after each annual election practical
bile, the SAID board [of educationl shall appoint
some legal voter of said school district altern-
ate member thereof; and, in case of a vacancy in
said board, or of the absence of a regular member
from the district said alternate shall have ali the
powers and perform all the duties OF a regular
member during said absence or until said rdcan-
Gu is filled as provided for an the act to rhch this is
amendment.
The law which governs the filling of the
vacancy, provided for in the act to which the
above is an amendment, is found in Sec. 3, of
the original school law, as follows:
If between the times of the annual elections any
vacancy shall occur in SAID board, by death resig-
nation or removal from the limits of said district
the remaining members shall fill the vacancy by
appointment, and the person SO appointed sha II
hold the office until the next annual election, and
until his shall be elected and qualified
Il is perfectly plain, therefore, that it is
the duty of the remaining members Messrs,
BufOrd and Mitchell, to fill the vacancy, even
if there was al alternate member. But
there is no alternate member, none having
been appointed since the last annual election,
and there is no law authorizing the old alter
nate to hold until II new one is appointed. -
1t is, therefore, the duty OF the present or re-
naming members of the board to fiji the va
cancy and also appoint alternate as re-
Quired by law, both of which will hold their
offices until the Attn Tuesday of March next
and the regular member will hold his Office
until his successor snail be elected and quail
fed.
