MY ROSE.


Within a certain arbor, grows
The queerest Of all passion flowers;
Ii blooms in winter, fades and goes
Away with April sun and showers.
1t hangs upon a tender stem;
Has gorgeous leaves Of sweet perfume;
No rose leaves half as sweet as them,
Nor Ger as fair did ever bloom,
'Tis modest, too, for if the hush
OF It's retreat be unduly broken,
Twill hang its head and sweetly blush,
Tho not single word be spoken.
And there that rose FOR wears had lived.
Save TO one human eye unknown:
From some mysterious source received
It's strength, until twas fully blown.
But in midsummer came frost
! Which robbed it OF its brightest hues;
Yet tho its beauty all seemed lost,
And borne away on rising dews-
Again it grew with wonted power,
Unwilling thus to fade and Perish;
But scorned the sunshine and the shower
And pearly dews that once did nourish.
Anon its beauty comes and goes,
Unnoticed lives-unnoticed dies;
It's simmer comes With clouds and SHOWS,
Its winter with bright smiling skies.
Thus always in the darkest hour,
Most sweetly blooms my chapgeful roe.
'TisfLovK-which by somc stubborn powe
When most opposed the strongest grows.

Acertain peasant had 3 tFusty dog
called Sultan, who had grown quite old
in his service, and had lost all his teeth,
so that be could not hold anything fast.
One day the peasant stood with his
wife at the house door and said, 'this
morning | shall shoot old Sultan, for he
is 10 longer of any USE" His wife,
however, compassionating the poor ami
nal, replied, SWELL since he has served
us so long and SO faithfully, | think We
NAV very well afford him food for the
rest of his life" s.Eh, what" replied
her husband; ''you are not very clever;
he has not tooth in his head, and
never thief is afraid of him, so he
must trot of. If he has served us, he
has also received every day his dinner.
The poor Dog, lying stretched out IN
the sun not far from his master, heard
all he said, and was much troubled at
learning that the morrow would be his
last day. He had one good friend, the
| Wolf in the forest, to whom he slipped
at evening aud complained Of the sad
fate which awaited him. '.Be of good
courage, my father" said the Wolf; 81

havsjust thought of something. Early
tomorrow morning your master goes
haymaking with his wife, and they viii
take with them their child, because no
Que will be left in the house. And
while they are at work they viii put
him behind the hedge in the shade,
and set you by to watch him. l will
| thea spring out Of the wood and steal
away the child, and you must run after
| me hotly as if you were pursuing me.
| L wiii-ist it fab and you shall take it
back to its parents, who. will than be-
| lieve you have saved it, and they will
| be too thankful to do you any injury;
/ and 50 you will come into great favor,
and thev will never letyou want again.
l. This plan pleased the Dog, aud it
was carried. out exactly as proposed.
/ The father cried when he saw the Wolf
running off with the child, but as old
i Sultan brought it back he was highly
pleased, and stroked him and said, 'sNot
hair of your head shall be touched; |;
| you shall, eat your meals in comfort to
the end of your days" He then told
| his wife to 90 home and cook old Sui
tan some bread and broth, which would
not need biting, and also to bring the
pillow out of his bed that he might give
| it to him for resting-place.

A Lie Squelched.
From the Ohio State Journal.

f.. From the Ono State journal lE sse
There is dirty dog who publishes a
paper called the Democrat, at La Crosse,
Wisconsin. He has done what ecould
to gain notoriety among Democratic pa
pers, by outlying their biggest hes,
slandering recklessly all good men and
women, and publishing things too inde-
cent for anybody else to venture upon.
He has been so much meaner and dir
tier and mangier a cur than any Of his
rival Democratic brother editors could
hope to be, that he gained considerable
more infamy for himself than is com
monty vouchsafed to mortals, even with
great talents in that way, and has con-
sequently been the subject of universal
envy and delight of the Democratic
press. But even lis capacity for infany
seemed to be failing hiu, when he be-
thought him of new expedient to gain
notoriety. He wrote an article in his
usual style, charging General Butler
with stealing spoons, He then started
the report that General Butler had sued
him for libel. And soon afterward pub
lished what he stated was letter from
General Butler offering to withdraw the
suit if he would cease his attacks. This
letter he published with Gen. Buffers
name attached to it, and aecompahi ed
the letter with grandilOquent reply
over his own signature in which he de
cIiued to discontinue his attacks. And
this correspondence was published by
by every Democratic paper in America
as proof of the indispensable, unap-
proachable, infinite pluck and daring of
~Brick Pomeroy."
General Butler quietly disposes ofthis
Brick, and brands him with, ,falsehoed
and forgery, IN the following short note;
10 The Editor Of the NJ T. Tribune:
SIR-May ask yon to stamp forgery
An announcements Is going the rounds OF the
papcrs that have brought suit sgaiDst one
Pomeroy. of the La Crosse Wis. Desn0crqt,
for libel. That action so contrary 10 my de-
termiued silence as to newspaper slanders,
needed confirmation, 30 the Dei2orrct pub
fishes letter puTport ng to be signed by me,
offering to withdraw the suit, To which he
makes a grandiloquent and abusive reply
Need l say that have brought no such suit
against him or any other slandering scrib-
bier
The letter is forgery to bolster lie.
Yours, truly, BESI. F. BUTLER.

Many men seem to think that re6g-
ion Consists Of buying ticket at the
little ticket office of conversion. They
conclude that they will make voyage
to heaven. They have understood that
a man must be convinced and convert
ed and Join the church and when they
have done that they think they have
ticket which, under ordinary circum-
stances, Eill carry them through. Their
salvation is not altogether sure. A man
may yet be cast away upon voyage.
But still they say, 81 have got my ticket
and If no accident happens, it will carry
me to N.Y. destination safely and all |
have to dol to have patience and faith" :"
And they sreilikesa man that Is riding
in the cars who, every time the con-
ductor- comes around, shows his
ticket. They say, 81 was awakened, l
saw that was sinner, and trusted my
soul in the hands Of Christ" Yes, YOU
felt it ever since you were converted.
Are there not hundreds and thousands
that ara living in just the same way
Instead Of feeling that conversion Is the
introduction of man into a state of APP
premiership and journey-work on the
temple of the soul, and he is to build
on right foundations, carry up its vari-
GUS apartments, instead Of feeling that
they have entered upon work which
will task their perseverance and pa

comes along and wakes him and says,

are preached to them that should excite
in them alarm as to their own condition,
they say, "That was a good sermon,
but l have hope" as much as to say,
Sermons do not apply to me, for I

Religious Gossip.

We use this term to distinguish a
habit that is quite common and grow
ing among us, of picking up and re-
lating all kinds ofTeligious news. Some
good men have the habit of telling on
public occaaions their own private re-
Ggious exercises, to the minutest details;
and, whatever they can find out of the
religious exercises of others, they do
not scruple to divulge. Do they hold
a religious conversation with an impor-
tant personl They viii report all its
details to their friends and in public
meetings.
There are many things connected
with mans own religious experience
which cannot safely be spoken about or
made public, and ought not to be. There
are also relations made in the freedom
of religious conversation with impeni-
tent persons, and with Christians, that
ought not to.be repeated. We believe
that the work of the Holy Spirit is often
marred and hindered by the publicity
