grave, feeling that Josiah Keep was
her murderer, rose up before him. and
his heart throbbed a moment with the
old tierceness of its youth. 1t was but
a moment. Then he looked again on
the face of his ancient enemy, and the
fearful craving of those dying eyes
was something he could not withstand.
Il forgive you the wrong said Benja-
min May, taking the cold hand in his,
and by so much as Gods mercy is
greater than mine, may He also for
give you.
Then there came swift shrek, as
Of heart suddenly broken,-a swift
shrek along with the last words of
Benjamin May. 'Ah, father, you are
not going to die, to die and leave me
in this dreadful world all alone-all
alone! moaned Bessie Keep
The dying man lifted his head.
the child, Benjamin Promise me that
you will not leave her here to perish,
that you will take her away with you,
and place her in some orphan asylum
promise me quick, before | die
And Benjamin May looked at the
small, thin figure, at the sal,ow faco
within its cloud of bright, brown hair,
and the terrible anguish stamped upon
1t moved his soul to its depths.
His sons had grown to be men, his
one little daughter had followed her
mother home, leaving him memory
OF soft blue eyes, and sweet smiles
dawning and fitting among dimples,
to haunt all his after life.
A great pity and tenderness for this
child, ophaned, friendless, beggared,
came over him. He put out his arm
and drew him to his breast-he laid
his hand on the bright floating hair.
JOSIAH he said, Il will take the
child to my home-to my heart She
shall be to me in place of the daughter
that has gone, and | will be to her in
all things in the stead of her father
A smile crept over the CHASTITY face
sinking into death. Now | can be-
IieVe that God will have mercy upon
me. Now, after this, l can believe it,
murmured Josiah Keep; and they were
the last words he ever spoke.
And sobbing and clinging to her new
father, with her face hidden away close
to the heart that would never fail her
in love and care, Bessie Keep had not
dared to look upon the face OF the dead.
But Benjamin May had; and seeing his
ancient enemy lying low before him,
and remembering the forgiveness he
had carried out as precious freight from
the coasts of time to the shores of eter-
nifty, he murmured to himself, except
we have the spirit of Christ ye are none
Of his
And it was this spirit which Benia-
min had shown to his ancient enemy.

sound Made Visible.

AT the Royal Institution in London
recently, according to the London Lam
Get, Professor Tyndall repeated somo
of the interesting experiments by
which he has on previous occasions
given ocular proof of the effects of
sonorous vibrations When a let of
gas is burning under an amount of
pressure which is but just short OF tho
'haring' point, it becomes excessively
sensitive to a mOmentary increase of
pressure, and will respond in the read
lest manner to the slight acute sound,
vibrating actively to the merest 'chir-
rup' OF the lips. A still more remark
able demonstration was made with q
thin column of smoke, of which tho
shadow was cast or. screen by means
of an electric light; here the smoke
became SO sensitive that the slightest
vibration of the air affected it. and
two tuning forks making discord
produced the wellknown beat, which
was attended by q marked pulsation
of the edges of the shadow. Perhars
the most beautiful ocular demonstra-
ton of the effect of sound was pro-
duced by throwing the electric light
through a minute stream of falling
water, the effect being to produce
string of glittering drops of the most
brilliant appearance. When musical
notes were sounded in the vicinity
these drops altered their arrangement
in obedience to the waves of sound,
and clearly indicated by their modified
appearance the effect produced upon
them.

ALWAYS LOVE.

Because Loves sight is but sigh,
Doth it the less Loves heart disclose!
Because the rose must fade and die,
Is it the less the lovely rosei
Because black right must shroud the day,
Shall the brave sun no more be gayl
Because chill autumn frights the birds,
Shall we distrust that spring will come?
Because sweet words are only words,
Shall love for evermore be dumbl
Because our bliss Is fleeing bliss.
Shall we who love forbear to kissl
Because those eyes OF gentle mirth
Must sometimes cease my heart to thrill,
Because the sweetest voice on earth
Sooner or later must be still,
Because its idol is unsure,
Shall my strong love the less endure?
All, no let lovers breathe their sighs,
And roses bloom, and music sound,
And passion burn on lips and eyes,
And Pleasures world go ever round;
Let golden sunshine flood the sky,
And let me love OF let me die

SMALLPOX AND VACoINATIoN.-We
see the New York papers are agitating
with great earnestness the subject of
vaccination to prevent the spread of
smallpox, which is said to be alarm
ingly on the increase in that city. We
should like to call the attention of our
own citizens to this subject, because, in
view of the general prevalence of this
loathsome disease in many parts of the
country, it is no more than common
prudence that the needed precautions
be taken against its ravages here. 1t
was only II week or two since that
portion OF the city was Mortified by a
report that IA family living in the same
building with one of our public schools,
and only separated from the school
room by door, had two or three cases
of smallpox, and the fact had been
concealed several days for fear OF break
ing up the school; and il was expected
half the school would be infected. Hap
PLY twas found that the supposed small
pox was something else. and the anxi-
ETY. OF parents was relieved. But
suppose it had been smallpox, how
many of that school would have been
secure against contagion? The New
York Tunes very sensibly remarks that
1t seems so strange people pay so littl e
attention to vaccination, when an eX-
peElence OF more tnhn sixty years has
demonstrated beyond caviI that it is a
certain preventive of smallpox. The
fact is that numbers of persons are too
indOlent to act upon their knowledge,
or else are Ignorant of the subject alto
Eether, and pay the penalty of their re-
missness by falling victims to the
lonthsome disease, which carries them
to the grave or disfigures them for life.
Dr. Harris, of New York, the Regis
trar OF Vital Statistics, has published a
careful presentment of the matter, in
which he reviews vaccination as a
means of prevention, and gives an az
ray of reasons why we may expect a
visitation of smallpox unless the pub
lie are aroused from their apathy to
check its progress. He suggests gem
eral vaccination mt once. The teachers
in the public and private schools should
see to it that their pupils are attended
to- the physicians and surgeons at the
public dispensaries should insist that
the beneticiaries of those institutional
are properly cared for; banking houses,
ferry and steamship companies, rail.
way and telegraph offices, hotels, the |
public institutions, and, in fact, all es-
adjustments where large numbers are |
engaged, should require the vaccina-
ton of their employees as the condition
OF continued service.
