FAILING EYES. Persons suffering from
dyspepsia or any other malady, must take
care Of their eyes Any disease impairs
the strength, and the nervous system is de-
pressed; and when laboring under this form
of depression, the eye is particularly liable
to become weak. The reason Of this is,
that of the ten nerves that go off from the
brain, six are distributed wholly and the
other four partially to the eye. Through
the great sympathetic nerve, the disturbed
stomach or liver, or intestines, communi-
Gates with telegraphic speed with the brain,
and so with the eye. The first advice to be
given with the reference to the comfortable
use of the eyes, undoubtedly is--to keep in
testines and liver and stomach in healthy
condition, or in other words do everything
to confirm the general health. If this be
impaired do not read, and especially do not
write long without giving the eye a rest.
The great remedy for an eye whose disease
depends upon the nerve and not the muscle,
is Rest Restll Restlll

THE HUMAN BODY.-While the gastric
juice has mild, blanded, sweetish taste, it
possesses the power Of digesting the hardest
food that can be swallowed, 1t has no infu-
ence whatever on the fbres of the living
animal; but in the moment Of death it be-
gins to eat them away with the power of
the strongest acid. There is dust on the
sea and land-in the valley and on the
mountain top-there is dust always and
everywhere. The atmosphere is full of it.
1t penetrates the noisome dungeon, and Wis
its the deepest and darkest caves of the
earth. No palace door can shut it out; no
drawer is so secret as to escape its presence.
Every breath of wind dashes it upon the
open eye, which yet is not blinded, because
there is fountain of the blandest fluid in
nature necessarily emptying itself under the
eyelid, which spreads itself over the surface
of the eyebal, at every winking, and washes
evety atom of dust away. This liquid, so
well adapted to the eye itself, has some
acidity, which, under certain circumstances,
becomes so decided as to be sealding to the
skin, and would rot away the eyelids were
it not that all the edges of them are little
oil manufactures, which spread over the
surface coating as impervious to the liquids
necessary for keeping the eyeballs clean, as
the best yarnish is imperYious to water.

A SERMON TO A PREACHER.-Never
shall | forget the remark of a learned legal
friend, who was at one time somewhat skep-
tical in his views. Said he to me, did /
believe as you do, that the masses of our
race are perishing in sin, I could not rest.
| would fly to tell them Of salvation |
would labor day and night. l would speak
with all the energy and pathos | could sum
mon 1 would warn and entreat my fellow
men to turn unto Christ, and receive saliva
ton at his hands. / am astonished at the
manner in which the majority of you min
listers tell your message. Why don't you
act as if you believed your own words.
You have not the earnestness in preaching
the lawyers have in pleading. If we were
as tame as you are, we would not carry
single suit
4 decade of years has passed away since
the remark was made. | bless God it was
addressed to me. 1t put fire in my bones
which hope will burn as long as l live

day by the mouth of that infdel lawyer

have in turn made Seville their capital and
terrestrial paradise. 1t is girt on every side
by fertile plains, the orange and lemon trees
hang loaded all the year with their golden
fruit, and the silver river, whose name Is
poetry and whose banks are haunted with
the memories of Eastern delights, washes
the feet Of this beautiful city.
I hoped TO be away from it at the end Of
this letter, butshall have to stay a week
longer. IRENRUs.

SIGNs.-It is a good sign to see man
do an act of charity bad sign to hear him
boast of it
lisa good sign to see an honest man
wearing his old clothes-bad to sec them
filing holes in the windows.
It's a good sign to see man wipe the
perspiration from his broY-bad TO see him
wipe his lips as he comes out of cellar.
It's q good sign to see woman dressed
with taste and neatness to see her
husband sued for fnery.
It's good sign to see man advertise in
the papers-bad to see tie sheriff advertise
for him.
lisa good sign to see man sending his
children to school-bad to see them educa-
ted at the night school in the street.

Uses OF TENPTAT1oN.-When founder
has cast his bell, he does not presently fix 1t
in the steeple, but tries it with his hammer
and beats it on every side, to see if there be
any flaw in it. Christ does not presently
after he has converted man, convey HIM to
heaven; but suffers him to be beaten by
many temptations, and then exhalts him to
