REMARKs.-Over the Northern roads BIB cattle
about three-fourths last weeks numbers; be-

ly 1900 from Albany, ofwhich some 800 arrived
and were sold Saturday. The deficiency in
Northern cattle at Cambridge was fully supplied
by some 300 head of Western, many of which
came directly in competition with the grass-fed
stock from New England. So that the West
appears disposed to send not only her corn-fed
bullocks, but her store cattle as well. Maine not
only fails to furnish her usual supply in this line
but we saw 26 good Western steers sold at Brigh
ton to Mr.. Simpson at l3c, "a SKI averaging over
1900 lbs. live weight, to be shipped for the mar

How American Watches are Made,

The American Waltham Watch is made by no
such uncertain process-and by no such incom-
petent workmen. All the Company's operations,
from the reception of the raw materials to the
completion of the Watch are carried on under
one roof, and under one skillful and competent
direction. But the great distinguishing feature
of their Watches, is the fact that their several
parts all made by the finest, the most perfect
and delicate machinery ever brought to the aid
of human industry. Every one of the more than
hundred parts of every watch is made by a
machine-that infallibly reproduces every sue
ceeding part with the most unfailing accuracy
1t is only necessary to make one perfect watch of
any particular style and then to adjust the humid
red machines necessary to reproduce every part
of that watch, and it follows that every succeed
ing watch must be like it.
The Company respectfully submit their watches
ON their merits only. They claim to make

AMERICAN COOKING STOVE

After twenty years experience in the manufac-
ture of stoves, we became convinced, some six
years since, that vast amount of money was
being expended by the people of this country. in
buying cheap and almost worthless stoves, a
large portion ofwhich was wasted and that true
economy consistedin buying the best stoves that
could be made, notwithstanding the price was
higher With this view we proceeded to con-
Struct the American Cooking Stove, and spared
no pains or expense to make it the best and most
perfect stove that could be made. And we have
experimental with it, and carefully watched its
operation for the last six years, and when an i'm
provement suggested ITSELF we have at once
adopted it, and we have several ofthese improve
ments secured by letters patent. In this manner,
we do not heSitateto say, we have brought it to
higher state of perfection than has heretofore
been attained in cooking stoves. The recent i'm
proyements in this stove has added largely to its
convenience and effectiveness. In all the varie-
ties of stoves we manufacture, we study useful
ness, durability, convenience and economy in
operation, rather than cheapness in price, and in
so doing we are satisfied we study the interest of
those purchasing our stoves.

WALTER SCOTT.

Scoot has done more for Edinburgh than
all her great men put together. Burns has
hardly left a trace Of himself in the northern
capital. During his residence there, his
spirit was soured, and he was taught to
drink whisky punch-obligation which he
repaid by addressing Edna, Scotia dar-
ling seat, in copy of his tamest verses.
Scott discovered that the city was beautiful
he sang It's praises over the World-and
he has put more coin into the pockets Of its
inhabitants than if he had established a
branch OF manufacture Of which they had
monopoly. Scott novels were to Edin-
burgh what the tobacco trade was to Glas-
Cow about the close Of the last century.
Although several laborers were before him
in the field of the Border Ballads, he made
fashionable these wonderful stories of humor
and rathos. As soon as "The Lay of the
Last Minstrel appeared, everybody was
raVing about Melroee and Moonlight He
wrote '"The Lady of the Lake, and the
next year thousand tourists descended on
LOch Katrine, and began to take lessons on
the bag pipe He improved the Highlands
as much as Gen. Wade did when he struck
through them his military roads. Where
his muse was one year, mail coach and
hotel were the next.
His poems are graded down into guide
books. Never was an author so popular as
Scott, and never was popularity worn so
lightly and gracefully. In his own heart he
did not value it highly, and he cared more
for his plantation in Abbotsford than for
his poem and novels He would rather
have been praised by Tom Purdle than by
any critic, He was great, simple, sincere,
warm hearted man. He never turned aside
from his fellows in gloomy scOrn; his lip
never curlcd with disdain. He never ground
his teeth save when in the agonies oftooth
ache. He liked society, his dogs, his do
mestics, his trees, his historical nick -nacks.
At Abbotsford he would write chapter of
a novel before his guests were out of bed,
spend the day with them, and then, at din
ner, his store of shrewd, Scottish anecdotes
frightened the table more than did the
When in Edinburgh, any one
might see him in the streets or in the Par
lament House. He was loved by every
body. No one so popular among the SOU
ters of Selkirk as the .ShjiTd. George ",
on his visit to the northern kingdom, de-
clared that Scott was the man he most
wished to see He was the deepest, sim
plest man Of his time. He sinks like Ben.

THE WINTER OF TIE HEART.

\ beautiful writer counsels wisely when
he says: Live so that good angles may
protect you from this terrible evil-the win
ter of the heart. Let no chilling influence
freeze up the fountains Of sympathy and
happiness in its depths; no cold burden set
tie over withcrcd hopes, ike the snow on
faded flowers; no blast Of discomfort moan
and shrek through its desolate chambers.
Y our life path may lead through trials which
for time seem utterly to impede your pro-
greSS, and shut out the very light of heave
from your anxious gaze. Penury may take
the place of ease and plenty; your luxurious
room may be changed for an humble one,
the soft couch for q rtrnw pallot the rich
viands for The coarse food Of the poor.
Summer friends may forsakc you, and the
cold Implying world pass you with scarcely
a look or word Of compassion. You may be
forced to toll YEARLY, steadily on to earn a
livelihood; you may encounter fraud and the
base aEaricc that would extOrt the last far
thing, till you well nigh turn in disgust from
your fellow beings. Death may sever the
dear ties that bind you to earth, and leave
you in fearful darkness, That noble, manly
boy, the sole hope Of your declining years,
may be taken from you while your spirit
clings 10 him with wild tenacity, which
subdue Amid all these sorrows do not
come to the conclusion that nobody was ever
so deeply afflicted as you are, and abandon
every anticipation of better days in the I'M
known future. Do not lose your faith in
human excellence, because confidence has
sometimes been betrayed, nor believe that
friendship was only delusion, and love a
bright phantom which glides away from our
grasp. Do not think that you are fated to
be miserable, because you are disappointed
in your expectations, and baffied in your
pursuits, Do mot declare that God has for
saken you when your way is hcdged about
with thorns, or repine sinfully when be calls
your dear ones to the land beyond the grave.
Keep holy trust in heaven through every
trial; bear adversely with lortitude, and look
upwards in hours Of temptation and suffer
ing. When your locks are white YOUR eyes
dim, and your limbs weary; when Jour steps
falter on the verge of DEATH gloomy vale,
still retain the freshness and buoyancy of
spirit which will shield you from the winter
of the heart.

H-E-R-E WE COME.

There was q wedding in a church in vii
lage near Chicago, recently, which was at,
tended by crowd ofpeOple, the bride ia,
nous belle in this section, and the bride
groom late army officer. There is a story
about him that was revived with great effect
at the wedding. He was in the Western
Frontier service, and one day $50 the story
goes he went out to hunt bear. He had
been away from camp few hours, when his
voice was heard family in the distance e1-
claiming: "H-c-r-c 1ce cOHlep'
In little time, the same cry was heard
again, but nearer; then it was repeated at
intervals, nearer and louder; when finally
the bold captain emerged from a bit of
woods near the camp, running at the the
top of his speed, without a coat, hat or gun.
In he came to camp shouting, Here we
come!
''Herc who Gomez inquired brother
officer.
"Why, me and the game. gasped the
officer, pointing to big bear who showed
himself at the edge of the woods took look
at the camp, and then, with gTowl at miss
ing his expected meal off the captain, disap-
peared in the woods again.
But why didn t yOu shoot the bear, and
then bring him in? inquired one.
What the use in shooting your game, g."
said the captain, testify, when you can
bring it in alive, as | did,
The story got home before the captain
did, and was in everybody,s mouth The
other night, as the bold captain led his in
tended bride into the church with the pride
and grace so readily inspired by the occa-
sion, some wicked wag sang out from the
gallery: "He-y-e ire coBto''
Which was followed by such a shout of
laughter as that old church never heard be-
fore.

THE SOULS CONVICTION OF III
MORTALITY.

| never saw man that did not believe in
the immortality Of love when following the
body of loved one TO the grave. | have
seen men under other circumstances that
did not believe in it; but | never saw a man
that, when he stood looking upon the form
of one that he really loved stretched out for
burial, did not revolt from saying, 1t has
all come to that; the hours Of sweet com
panionship; the wondrous interlacings of
tropical souls; the joys; the hopes; the trusts;
the unutterable yearnings, there they all
lie No man can stand and look in 4 coffin
upon the body of fellow creature, and re-
member the flaming intelligence, the bios
sGmlng love, the whole range Of Divine
faculties, which so lately animated that cold
clay, and say, These have all collapsed and
gone. No person can witness the last sad
ceremonials which are performed over the
remains of a human being-the sealing down
Of the unopened lid; the following of the
rumbling procession to the place of burial;
the letting down of the dust into dust; the
falling Of the earth upon the hollow coffin,
with those sounds that are worse than thUn-
der; and the placing Of the green sod over
the grave, no person, unless he be beast
can witness these things, and then turn away
and say, Il have buried my wife; | have
buried my child, have buried my sister,
my brother, my love
God forbid that we should bury anything.
There is no earth that can touch my COM
panion. There is no earth that can touch
my child | would fight my little breath
and strength away before | would permit
any clod to touch him. The jewel is not in
the ground The jewel has dropped out of
the casket, and have buried the casket, -
not the jewel And you may reason, you
may say what you please, you may carry the
case before the supreme court of my under
standing, but there is something higher than
reason, and something back Of the under
standing All that is in me revolts at the
decision, and spurns it, and says: You must
try heart cases before the heart. We will
not believe but that there is life somewhere
else; we will not believe that life is buried
here; and the soul goes out and cries, ike
child lost in the woods, to find itself in this
strange world, saying, Where am l? and
who shall guide me, that long and yearn and
reach upward. -Beecbsr $ Royal Truths.
