Charles summer,

The most polished and learned man in
the Senate of the United States is Senator
Sumner. He is the leader of hat body
of able men. Natdresdid much credit to
herself in giving him such noble and
manly physical proportions. Though his
frame is so large, we regard him as ex-
ceedingly graceful. His hair is very dark,
while his black eye is all on FIRE with in
telligence. His voice is deep base, yet
pleasant to hear. His classic culture, pol
ished oratory and commanding figure,
give him an interest which is vested in no
other man in America. While other
Senators are at home asleep, upon the
street, or are in their seats in the Senate
Chamber with their heels higher than their
heads, talking, &c, you viii find Mr..
Sumner deeply absorbed in writing a
speech, resolution, or ~engrossed in some
books pertinent to the times. He is a con-
slant student, and always in his seat. IF
any one were to ask why he knows more
than any other Senator, 1 would answer
by saying, because ne reads more. We do
not claim that he is the best general
scholar in the country, but he is perhaps
as good as any in the Senate. His morals
are perfect he is a good man. His beau
tiful private life, with him, as with all
ether men, is his chief virtue,

1t is stated that Mr.. Blow, Represents
tive from Missouri, will shortly resign his
seat in Congress, on account of the press
ing nature of his business interests. We
presume that there will DO blow enough
left in Congress to render it able to spare
him.
General Sherman, il issaid, has declared
in favor of negro suffrage, as the only
means of keeping in check disloyalty, par
ticularly in the part of the Union now
within his command. The General is nc
politician, and if he has reached such 9
conclusion, it is from the disinterested OBJ
servation eff a soldier.

LITTLE THINGS IN RELIGIOUS LIFE

Little words, not eloquent speeches or SER
mons little deeds, not miracles nor battles,
nor one great act or mighty martyrdom, make
up the true Christian life. The little constant t
sunbeam, not the lightning the waters Of ST.
loan, "thtt go softly" o. thair meek mission of
rttreshmeut, II not "the waters of the river great
and mighty" rushing down in terrent noise
and force, are the irus symbols ofa holy life.
The ayoidancs of little evils, little sins little
Inconsistencies, little weaknesses, little tules,
little indscretions and imprudencies, little
il1ulgeucies of eelt and of the flesh little acts
OF indOeuce or in1ecision, or slovenliaess or
cowarlice, little equiv oeations or alterations
from high iltegriy, little bits CT worldliness
ard gaety, little inditerences to the feelings
or wishes OF others, little outbreaks OF temper
and crossness, or sefshne5s or vanity; the
aVoidlnee OF such little things as these goes
| far to make up at least the Negative beauty of
n holy lite. Aud thea attention to the little
duties OF the day aud hour in public transac
| u1as, o. private dsaliugs, or family arrange
inent9 to tho little words and tones little be-
nevoleace9 or forbearances, or tenderness
little self-deuiIla sef-rsstraints and self.
| thoushtfulnesl little plans OF quiet kindness
aud thoughtful consideration for others pune
tuality aud method and true aim, in the order
ing OF each day these are the active develop
menl5 Of holy life, the rich and divine mosaics
| of which it is comaosd. What makes yon green
hill 50 beautiful? Not the outstanding peak
OF stately elm, bat the bright sward which
clothes its slopes, composed of innu nerable
blades of grass. 1t is of small things that a
great life is made up; and he who will ac-
Knowledge no life as great save that which is
built up OF great things, will fud little in BIZ,

When John Roller, of the village of Helsen
had 10 sell all his property; BECAUSE in that
year Of scarcity, lsi7, he could pay neither
rent nor taxes, he went the day before with his
wife to church as was his regular custom every
Sunday. He found abundaat comfort in the
text Of the sermon stake no thought for the
morrow" and ia the words, "Your heavenly
Father knoweth that ye have need of all these
things"
o. his return feom the church he walked
much consoled by the side of his Margaret
and the words in ST. Matthew viii |, "Wh on
Jesus was come down from the LII luut great
mItitudes folloEed him, " seemed also to ap-
| py tor he, too, followed his Saviour with faith
and, hope, whose blessed words he lad heard
upon tie mountain where the little church
! stood. And when Margaret entered for the last
time on Sunday the cottage, which on the
morrow they wero to turn their backs upon, and
was beginning to weep, he comtorted her with
the words, Take no thought for the morrow;
| for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye h ave
need Of all these things" He spoke hmuc TO her
| OF how through Gods dispensation they had
been reduced TO poverty, now hs had sent the
sickness, the bad harvest, and the scarcity; aud

word, would make all things turn out for the
best.

T4e poor Rollers had no time to express their

they never saw him again, but the more fer
