The Rocks OF CALVARY. In Fleming s
Christology, it. is stated that an unbeliev-
er. visiting the sacred places Of Palestine,
was shown the clefts of Mount Calvary.
Examining them narrowly and critically,
he turned in amazement to his fellow-tra-
vellers. and said, Il have long been a
student Of nature, and I am sure that the
rents and clefts in this rock must have
split according to its veins, and where it
was weakest in the adhesion of parts; for
this" he said, Il have observed to have
been done in other rocks when separated
or broken after an earthquake, reason
tells me it must always be So. But it is
quite otherwise here; for the rocks are
split athwart and across the veins, in a
strange and preternatural manner, and
therefore," said he, Il thank God that I
came ,hither to see the standing mouu-
ment of miraculous power by which God
gives evidence to this day of the Divinity
of Christ" ss-1" -. re-s Z

tell you who it is. Mr.. Muhlenberg. will
you ride with us ?"
Carl Muhlenberg thanked him. Il
should not trespass on your hospitality,
but that I may restore trinket belonging
to your wife," he said.
The husband and wife exchanged mean
ing glances.
Carl Muhlenberg laid the gold cross in
the lady's hand. .. ;.
"This chain is like yours, are you the
owner of the cross ?"
The lady bowed, laughing and blush
ling. ....-
Il suppose you know how I happen to
possess it," he continued.
She bowed again, but said:
II solemnly affirm, did not the slight
est service in your resuscitation."
"It is problem shall spend my life
lin solving" said Carl Muhlenberg.
''Tell me, did you hear the woman's
words?' she asked. la
Il heard enough to make me believe
in woman and give life new blessedness,
If I might find her who spoke to me that
night"
"Well. I can't tell you" said the lady,
regretfully. Il was stopping for the
night at the seaside with a friend. I
gave her my watch to keep, and when she
returned it, the charm was gone. She
has purchased my silence with threats and
|entreaties.
"Blanche Parker is the lady waiting
for you," said her husband.
"Why, Charlie! How could you" ex-
claimed the wife.
Il didn't tell," he answered.
And when Carl Muhlenberg called
Blanche Parker wife, and by the princi-
pie of accumulativeness. the life hitherto
so poor became crowned with an abun-
bance of good things, Charlie Moore in
sisted that he didn't tell.

THE OLD STORY.

Many years ago celebrated italian ar
tist was walking along the streets of his
native city, perplexed and desponding in
consequence of some irritating circum-
stances or misfortune, when he beheld a
little boy of such surprising and unsur-
passed beauty that he forgot his own trou-
BILE and gloom in looking upon the almost
angel face before him.
"That face must have" said the ar
tist, "for my studio. Will you come to
my room and sit for picture, my little
man p
The little boy was glad to go and see
the pictures and pencils and curious
things in the artists room; and he was
still more pleased when he saw what
seemed to be another boy looking just
like himself smiling from the artists can
vass.
The artist took great pleasure in look
ing at the sweet face. When he was
troubled, or irritated. or perplexed, he
lifted his eyes to that lovely image on the
wall, and its beautiful features and ex-
preston calmed his heart and made him
happy again. Many visitor to bis stu
dio wished to purchase that lovely face.
but, thoug b poor, and often wanting mo-
ney to buy food and clothes, he would not
sell his good angel, as he called this por-
trait. -
So the years went on. Oftentimes as
he looked up to the face on the glowing
canvas he wondered what had become of
that boy. ..Ei; ;-.s @a-e' ~
''How should like to see how he looks
now! I wonder if I should know him I?
Is he good man and true, or wicked and
abandoned? Or has he died and gone to
a better land p 2.a., ..~ss ..ss -
One day the artist was strolling down
one of the fine walks of the city, when he
beheld man whose face and mien were
so vicious, SO depraved, so almost fend-
like that he involuntarily stopped and
gazed at him. ....,- s.4.,t
"What spectacle! I should like to
paint that figure. and hang it in my studio
opposite the angel boy" said the artist to
himself. .i'''s-
The young man asked the painter for
money, for he was begger as we'll as a
thief. ......~. -
"Come to my room, and let me paint
your portrait, and | will give you ali you
ask" said the artist = .H.
The young man followed the painter,
and sat for sketch. When it was fin
ished, and he received few coins for his
trouble, he turned to go; but his eye rest
ed upon the picture of the boy; he looked
at it, turned pale, and then burst into
tears. @
"What troubles you, man?" said the
painter. a.
1t was long before the young man could
speak He sobbed aloud, and seemed
pierced with agony.
At last he pointed to the picture on
the wall, and in broken tones which

HYMN.

BY THE LATE LORD BROUGHAM.
.TEhere is God," all nature cries;
A thousand tongues proclaim
His arm almighty, mind all-wise,
= And bid each voice in chorus rise
+, To magnify His name.
Thy name, great natures Sire divine,
Assiduous we adore;
Rejecting godheads at whose shrine
Benighted nations blood and wine
II In vain libations pour.
Yon countless worlds in boundless space
Myriads of miles each hour
Their mighty orbs as curious trace,
AS the blue circle studs the face
- Of that enamelled flower.
But Thou, too, madest that foweret gay
To glitter in the dawn:
The Hand that fixed the lamp of day,
The blazing comet launched away,

Gas falls a sparrow to the ground
Obedient to Thy will," l s''>'
By the same law those globes wheel round,
Each drawing each, yet all still found
In one eternal system bound --.-

SUCH IS HUMAN CHARACTER.

Accumulativeness is principle of ma
ture, of business, and society. In the
natural world, whatever has. receives
more; IL business, wealth creates wealth,
and in society, gifts accrue to the gifted.
This principle suggested itself to my
mind with peculiar force when Carl
Muhlenberg appeared on the veranda of
our hotel at the seaside and walked
straight to Marcia SAKE.
There were those sitting there, alone
aad nnentertained, and Marcia SAKE al
ready divided her attention between Gus
Ferrill and Winthrop Allen. '''' ;
There we're those sitting there to whom
flowers were rare aud precious, but Carl
Muhlenberg gave his exquisite bouquet to
Marcia SAKE, and she lived in an atmos-
phere Of flowers, filing gardens and con-
serystories. 81. =. a-szs Il.
There were those sitting there who
would have set q priceless value on Carl
Muhlenberg's words and gifts, but Mar
cia SAKE listened absently, and picked to
pieces the .earnation. she took from the
bouquet. 81 ! : - = - Y '.lf<
Carl Muhlenberg watched her, with a

piness and hold their tongues about it 3
What do half the men get married for
Simply that they may have somebody to
darn their stockings, sew buttons on their
shirts, and trot babies; that they may
have somebody. as a married man said
once, "to pull off their boots when they
are little balmy."
These fellows are always talking about
the loneliness of bachelors. Loneliness,
indeed! Who is petted to death By lsdies
with manageable daughters-invited to
tea and evening parties, and told to drop
in just when it is convenient ?-the bach

into the artists eyes. He besought the
young man to stop, and offered to help
him. But alas, it was too late. Disease,
contracted by dissipation, soon prostrated
the young man, and he died before be

The painter hung his portrait opposite

deous looking face to be there. he told
them the story, saying as he closed:

there is only twenty years of vice."

Taxation and Wealth.

1t has been the policy Of our rulers
in the past to tax the wealth Of the
country for the support Of the Gov
eminent. Such is not the principle
to-day. Instead of its being SO,
whoever will trouble themselves to
ascertain will find as fact that the
owner # a homestead Of forty acres
pays an annual tax of about $50 on
that besides his poll and personal
tax.
The Nero liant owning merchandise
to the value Of BIS, 900 pays an an
nual tax Of about 5000.
The money lender who honestly
returns his notes and mortgages to
the assessor OF his township pays in
state and county taxes from two, to
FIVE per cent on all these evidences
of debt. yh
The bond-holder with 500, 900
government bonds in his possession
draws his gold interest on them semi
annually to the amount Of $4,000,
for each six months and pays no tax
on either principal or interest.
In nine-tenths Of the cases these
men board at some fashionable
boarding house, neither paying d.
rect taxes, or indirect on the arti-
cles entering into tho expenses Of
every family. For the indulgence
of their ease they not unfrequently
own horse and carriage listed and
taxed at about 81 per aDnnm.

His ability is conceded by all. his

patriotic devotion to law, liberty,
