4 TRUE SPIRIT.-A convert in In
dia, entreated to give up the Christian
religion, said; Il love Jesus Christ be-
cause He loveth me, and | must obey
Him. Even if | knew that heaven
were full, and there was no room for
me, | would still love Him, and live
for his honor and glory" Efforts were
made to convince him by argument
He said, Given should they be able to
bring sophistical arguments which |
could not answer, | should not be
troubled. | have an inward expert
euce of the love of Christ which can
never be shaken or removedW His
relatives wept over him as going to
perdition. He said to the missionary,
Threats | can bear; arguments do
not shake me: but the hardest thing
to bear is the persecution of tears
1t almost breaks my heart to hear
them, but not even for this can | leave
Christ" Other converts and inqui-
rers in his native village were told that
he was about to return to his old faith.
He said, SHOULD l 60 back they would
all be discouraged. | thank God that
He has helped me to stand firm, for
their sakes. No, if my own soul were
not worth saving, | would cling to
Christ, in order to bring them to Him
also" Surely, this is the spirit of
primitive conservation and endurance.

OHING A NENTRHOQUIsT.-A phv-
stefan says he was going down the
Mississippi river a few months since,
on steamer whose engine was on
deck, and he sauntered in that direc-
ton to see the working of the machin-
cry. Near him stood a man apparent
~ bent on the same object. In a few
moments a squeaking noise was heard
on the opposite side of the engine
Selling the oil can, a gigantic one by
the way, the engineer sought out the
dry spot, and to prevent further noise
Of the kind, literally applied the con
tents of his can to every joint.
All went on well for a while, when
the squeaking was heard in another
direction.
The oiling process was repeated
and quiet restored; but as the en-
gineer was coming quietly around
toward the spot occupied by the doc
tor and the stranger, he heard anoth
er squeak. This time he detected the
true cause ofthe difficulty-the stran
ger was a ventriloquist. Going di
rectly up behind him, he seized tn,
astonished joker by the back of tn,
neck and emptied the contents of thu
can down his spine.
There" said he, 81 don't believ
that engine will squeak again"

THE SERPENTS OF CEYLON.-The
eye snake, so called from a supposed
habit it has of striking cattle in the
eye while grazing, is without eXcep-
ton the most beautiful and least re
puIsive Of all snakes. 1t is about 1
feet long, of the brightest grass green
the intense green of an English
meadow in early summer. 1t is very
thin and graceful in its movements
and although very rapid when moving,
is so simultaneously rigid when alar-
med, and adapts itself so wonderfully
to the shape and hue Of the grass or
reeds amongst which it moves, that, al
though watching one intently at your
very feet. it is most difficult to discri-
inmate between it and the vegetation
with which it mingles. One day, wal
king at Handy, saw what | thought
was large reed, or grass of a most
beautiful color. standing erect on the
road some two or three feet from the
bank, and it was not till | could have
touched it with my hand that l saw it
was an eye snake coiIed up in the
road its head and neck raised about
twelve inches from the ground, and as
rigid and immovable as if formed of
malachite.
The Cobra. OF ali the snakes the
cobra is the most beautiful, and when
erect, with its hood expanded, grace
fully moving in time to the music, it is
certainly a most striking and lascina-
ting object; its eye, which is general
ly leaden and heavy, becomes, under
the influence of music, intensely bright
and glittering. This effect is height
ened by the fact of snakes having no
eyeIids; the eye, although so beauti-
full, is not strong, and cannot bear any
strong glare. This was well known
to the ancients, who had an idea that
the flash of an emerald deprived them
Of sight The poison from the fang of
a cobra is like one or two drops OF
laudanum.-Sulliran's Bungalo,0 and
Tent.

A NOBLE LADY.-A short time ago
as a train Of cars was approaching
the Suspension Bridge, near Niagara,
the conductor found a young man who
could not pay his fare. The poor fell
low was evidently in the last stages Of
consumption, and emaciated to skele-
tonic proportions. He sat by himself
and his eyes were red as though he
had been weeping, but the laws Of the
company could not be transgressed
and he must leave the train. Not a
person spoke or moved as the cOnduc-
tor led him from his seat, all shivering
with fear; but just as he reached the
door, a beautiful girl arose from her
seat, with bright, sparkling eyes, de-
handed the amount charged for the
poor invalid. The conductor said
eight dollars, whereupon the young
and noble girl took that from her
purse, and kindly led the sick youth
back 20 his seat. The action put to
shame several men who had witnessed
it, and they offered to "pay half" but
the whole souIed woman Indignantly
refused their assistance. When the
train arrived at Albany, the young
protectresS gave the invalid money
enough to keep him over night in that
city, and sent him to his friends the
next morning. Two thirds Of the wo-
men Of the world would suffer by
comparison with her. The man who
gets that noble girl for wife will be
subject Of admissible envy.

The SPITTooN TRICK.-Take two
halfgallon spittoons-white ones are
the best-then select strong red
cord-a worsted one fit can be pro-
cured-pass the cord through the two
holes of each of the spittoons and
give the ends to gentleman and la
dy selected from the company, to hold.
Now let another lady seize the spit
ICONS, and sliding each to the oppo-
site end of the cord, bring them to-
gether smartly, when they will break
in pieces and fall to the floor. This
trick is easily performed, and will ex-
cite considerable applause.
THE MAGIC STICK.-To do this
trick properly you will need a pearl
handled knife and stout hard wood
stick, some two inches in length
Sharpen the two ends of the stick, and
then try to crush it endwise either be-
tween your hands or by sitting upon
it. This, to your establishment you
will find it impossible to do.
The FLYING HEN.-Select large,
well fed hen-the color is immaterlal,
though black is the best-and place
her in a sitting position on some
smooth surface. Then over her place
paste-board box, eighteen by thirty
inches. Pound smartly upon the top
of the box with bone-handled table
knife for three minutes, and then sud
denly raise it, when the hen will i'm
mediately fly away. This trick can
be performed by any person OF aver
age intelligence, who gives his whole
mind to it.
The NAIL TRICK.-Take two large
wrought iron nails, and wire them to.
gether in the form of a cross. 1t will
then be found impossible to swallow
} them. There is no deception about
this.
The CABLE.-Take a piece of tar
red cable about fifteen inches long
cut it carefully in two with a SHARP
; knife, and then try to chew the end
together. You can try as long as yol
like.
1 The MAGIC EGGs.-Put two fresI
< eggs carefully in a green wOr8ted bag
+ Swing the bag rapidly about you
r head, hitting it each time against tn
e door post. Then ask the company i
they will have them boiled, scramble
= or fried. 1t makes no differenc
n which they choose.
t The Four JACKS. Select a pac
; Of cards with plain white backs
5 Take out the four jacks and burn thel
,, before the company, letting them Sc
a the ashes. Now shuttle the card
= quickly, and holding them in the le
I hand give them a sharp rap with tn
e knuckles Of the right. Then plac
{ them on the table with the face down
a and defy the company to find the jack
II They can't do it.
