A Word TO Mothers.

Each woman is q historian. She
writes not the history of empires or of
nations on paper, but she writes her
own history Oh the impcrishable mind
of her child That tablet and that
history will remain indelible when
time shall be no more. That history
each mother shall meet again, and
read with eternal Joy or unuttorable
grief in the coming ages of eternity -
The thought should weigh on the
mind of every mother and render her
deeply circumspect, prayerful and
faithful in her solemn work of train
ing up her children for heaven and inn
mortality.
The minds of children are very sus-
ceptible and easily impressed. A word,
n look, frown may engrave an i'm
preston on the mind of child which
no lapse of time can ef1ace or wash
out You walk along the seashore
when the tide is out, and you form
characters, or write words or names
in the smooth white sand which is
spread out SO clear. aud beautiful at
your feet, according as your fancy may
dictate; but the returning tide shall
in few hours wash out and eliace all
that you have written. Not so with
the lines and characters of truth or
error which your conduct imprints on
the mind of your child There You
write impressions for the everlasting
good or i'll of your child, which Meth
er the floods nor the storms of earth
can wash out, nor Deaths cold finger
erase nor ihe slow moving ages of
eternity obitorate. How careful then
should each mother be in her treat
ment of her child How prayerful,
and how serious, and how earnest to
write the eternal truths of God on his
mind those truths which shall be his
guide and teacher when her voice
is silent in death, and her lips NO
longer move in prayer in his behalf, in
commencing her dear child to her
covenant God.

A Graphic Description OfNazareth.

w Hepworth Dixon thus describes
the early dwelling place Of the Saviour
of mankind:
-Four miles south OF the strong
Greek city of Sephoris, hidden away
among the gentle bills, then covered
from the base to the crown with yine-
yard and fig trees, lay a natural nest
or basin Of rich rcd and white EARTH,
star-like in shape but mile in width
and wordrously fertile: Along the
charred and chalky slope OF the high
est of these hills spread small and
lovely village which, in " land where
every stone seemed to have story, is
remarkable rs having had no public
history, and no distinguished name.
No great roads lead up to this sunny
nook. No traffic came into it, no le-
gions marched through it, Trade,
war, adventure, pomp, passed through
it, flowing from West to East, from
East to West, along the Roman road
But the meadows were aglow with
wheat and barley. Near tho low
grounds ran belt of gardens, fenced
with stones, IN which myriads of green
figs, red ponaegranates and golden cit
rons ripened in the summer sun. High
up the slopes. which were lined and
planted like the Rhine at Bingen,
hung vintages Of purple grapes. In
the plain among the corn and beneath
the mulberry trees and figs, shone
daisies, peoples, tulips, lilies, and an
emones, endless in their profusion,
brilliant in their dyes.
Low down on the hillside spranr q
well of water, bubbing, plentiful and
sweet, and above this fountain of life,
in long street struggling from the
fountain to the synagogue. rose the,
homestead of many shepherds, crafts
men and vine. dressers. It was a love-
y and humble place, of which no rul-
en- no historian of Israel has ever yeS
taken notice. No Rachel had been
met and kissed into love at this we'll,
no Ruth had gathered up the sheaves
of barley i'll cornfields; no tower had
Been built for observation on this
height; no camp had been pitched or
battle fought in this vale. That one
who would become dearer to the fan
cies of men than either Ruth or Ra-
chel, then walked through those fields,
drew water at this spring, passed up.
and down the lanes of this hamlet, mo-
seer could then have surmised. The
Arab may have pitched his black tent
by the well, the magistrate of Sephoris'
must have known the village, but the,
hamlet was never mentioned by the
Jewish scribes. In the Bible, in the,
Talmud, in the writing of Josephus,.
We search in vain for any record of
this sacred place. Like it's happy
neighbors, Main and Endor, it was the
abode of husbandmen and old dress.
ers, whose lives were spent in the syn
agogue and the olive grove, away from
the bright Greek cities and the busy
Roman roads No doubt it had once
been possessed of either an Arab or
Hebrew name, but we do not know
the name except in its Hellenic form.
The Greeks called the town Nazaret
or Nazareth.

Sixteen Years of Suffering with
Hydr0phObia.

A case of Hydrophobia has lately
come under our observation, which, in
point of sensational horror, surpasses
the most lofty fight of that sensation
loving journal, the Chicago Times. -
Sixteen years ago last Wednesday,
James Bay, then resident of Pontiac
was bitten by rabid dog, but expert
enced no serious effects from the bite
until one year from the day on which
he was bitten He then felt some
symptoms of the terrible disease, which
soon developed into Il most frightful
attack. For six weeks he was a raw
ing maniac, and all hope Of his recove-
~ was abandoned; but an iron consti-
tuition and skillful nursing brought him
out from the shadow of death, and he
rallied, the disease finally passing of.
He pursued the even tenor of his way
until the second anniversary, when he
was again attacked, but with less Sc
verify than on the first occasion. The
2Gth day of June in each succeeding
year has been the occasion of hydro
phobic fit, the last of which attacked
him one week ago yesterday, at Sand
wich, where he was employed rs a
brick maker The usual symptoms
were felt during the early part of the
day, and Bay requested some of his
friends to tie him, in order to prevent
personal injury. Being frightened by
his peculiar appearance, they refused
to do so, and he continued at his work
all day, and until midnight, his usual
time of quitting. Going to u neigh
boring barn he tried to sleep off the
dreaded attack. After a while his COM
panions heard noise in the
barn, and fearing that it was as Bay
had declared, went to his aid An APP
palling sight greeted them. The poor
victim was foaming at the mouth, bit
ing at various objects, and to all APP
pearance suffering the most intense
agony. AS soon as he caugh sight Of
them, with eyes glowing like freballs,
and uttering an unearthly yell, he
made rush at them.
The party at once retreated, leaving
Bay alone in the gloomy hoy-loft
wrought up 10 the highest pitch OF
maniacal frenzy, and battling with an
enemy that no mortal man can sub
due In one of his commissions he
lifted portion of the roof completely
off, which evidently exhausted him,
as nothing more was heard, and when
his friends finally yentured to look af-
ter him, he was found in sound
sleep. He was at once secured and
taken to safe place, where he was
kept for several hours, and when he
awoke nearly all the traces Of the pre-
yious nights awful experience had
disappeared, and with the exception
Of the exhaustion produced by his
great suferings, was a well as usuals,
