UNION AND AMERICAN.
MEMORIES

But line in a daily paper
Thousands of eyes would sec.
And carelessly pass the record by
mat gives such pRng TO me-
Yet our lives bad drifted far apart
Mine at my 1ugleside;
And his, who, 1 read in the Pos, to-day,
On the 4th Of October died"
and ours was quiet liking
A simple, friendly bond
Ii was pleasant 10 meet. and light to part.
And never thought beyond.
\ ct as l read those words to-day,
Through a sudden mist OF tears,
The fair, frank face. and the bright, blue eye
Cleaned out through the cloud ofyears-
heard the murmur Of the tide
On the southern shore again,
And the echo of the pOny's feet
In the sandy Hampshire lane.
Isaw the sheen of the willow bough.
And the flashing of the weir.
just as we watched them long ago,
In the spring of the life aud the year.
All. WE'LL it had passed away from mine,
The lie that is closed at noon;
And /. who forgot to watch its course,
Will forget its setting soon.
For the world goes up, and the world goes down,
And the young succeed the old;
And the April sunshine gilds the buds
That spring from the churchyard mould.
And eyes that Of old have answered mine
Will sadden as mine have done,
rs they glance some day down the list, and read
That my earthly race is run.
Well, 1 scarce can frame kindlier wish
Than that every lip will say.
God rest her SOUL" as earnestly
As L breathe 1t for his to-day.

RrTIoToTs AwAxENIyG INDIA

The Missionaries of the Methodist
Episcopal Church in India report a very
promising state Of feeling amongst the
Mehtars Of Biinour, Rohilcund. The
Mehtars are pariahs or outcasts; that is,
they are below the four "castes," iato
which Hindoo society is divided, and their
touch would be pollution to a Brahmin.
They are not vegetarians like high caste
HindoOs, and are described az q much
finer looking class of men. Heretofore
they have received little or no instruction
in schools, as they were not allowed to
mingle with the high castles. Since the
missionaries have opened schools and
preaching places fer them, they az. be
coming eager 10 learn, and are not il i-rjor
in ability 20 the high castles. They are
more accessible than either Mohammedan
or high caste Hindoo, having no fear OF
pollution and 10 religious prejudicss TO
overcome. Recently many Villages are
sending 10 the missionaries for teachers.
In July last a convention of Mehtars was
held in BJnour, at which, after long dis
Cussion, the representatives Of eight thou
sand people unanimously resolved shat
they will take the name of Jesus Christ,
renOunce all idolairy, and listen to the
teachers" Of course this does not make
them Christians, but il does open the way
for them to become SO,

IL SAYS:

Of Mardin were seized and sent to camp.
Their pastor, who interCeded in their be-
half was thrown into the malefaclors'
prison, bus subsequently, released on bail
The other seven, one Of them seventy
years Of age, were compelled TO carry
water, dirt, and stone, and to build man
gers for the cavalry horses, under the con-
slant beating Of the soldiers, who followed
them armed with sticks from an inch to an
inch and half in thickness. On Monday
the same course was proceeded with against
them, and when their pastor again remon.

were fastened 10 his neck, one before and
onebehind, aud two more put one in either
hand, and he was made to carry water
(the weight Of the four lara filled with
water was one hundred and fifty pounds
and although there was Fater in a cistern
level with the camp, they were made 10
go to a mosque for it, six hundred feet
higher than the camp. This treatment
continued till Friday, when they were led
to the Governor, who upbraidel them for
not paying their taxes. The Town Coun-
Gil then examined their case, and il was
decided that there was not a farthing due
from them, but an officer from the Pacha,

PROGRESS OF CHRISTIANITY.


A number of ecclesiastical meetings
have recently been held in New York. As
a religions contemporary remarks, these
meetings have one feature in common,
however widely they differ in others.
Each seems desircus to draw others into
Its own association. The Unitarians made
platform SO broad that whoever wishes to
do any good may come in with them,
whether Jew or Gentle, Pagan or Chris
tian. The Episcopalians are looking away
TO the East and devising ways and means
TO unite the Greeks, and perhaps the
Romans also, with the Anglican commu-
Mon. The Presbyterians are coming TO-
gether from the various points Of divergence
TO which they have been driven, and all
the signs indicate that the day of their re.
union is not far distant. The Pope of Rome
has issued a letter to the Greeks and Pro-
testants, asking them 10 come into his fold
and submit to the swsy which he now
Yields over so large part of the nominal
ly Christian world. These are remarkable
facts. They declare the universal senti-
nient of the religious mind of the age. Its
longings are toward a greater external
uniiy-an organic unity of those holding
the same faith and willing to obey the
came order. That the Church of Christ
will in this sense be one at present, there
is no special ground to believe But with
the increase of knowledge and piety, the
Waterman will more and more see eye to
eye, and the Church will concentrate her
energies for The final conflict with sin
and Satan before the victory that estab-
fishes the universal empire of the Prince
of Peace. The tendencies are in two d.
reclions-the Papal and the Protestant
forces are drawing asunder, and a sitting
process in each is going on. In the Roman
Catholic Church there are hundreds of
priests and thousands OF peple inquiring
the way tO.the truth and the life Of faith
in Christ. In the Protestant Church there
are hundreds of ministers and thousands of
people who are inquiriug the way to Rome.
Preachers in Chicago sbjure the name of
Protestant and pronounce the system a
failure. The Episcopal Convention of H.
linois has dropped the title of protestant
Episcopa! Church" from lis printed min
utes.

A FEARFUL RECoRn.-Of the thousand floating
rumors, which may be truth or sensation, none
is more painful than the assertion which every
now and then forces itself Into ugly prominence,
that lntemperance is growing evil among the
women of the higher classes of our land. There
Is none certainly which any good man would be
slower to believe or more reluctant to credit.
Yet again and again-the unpleasant allegation is
made, not hippantly, but supported with the
stubborn aid of facts. An entry or two from the
ohlcial reports of application for admission into
the inebriate's asylum of New York are fearful ::
Clergymen, 80 judges, 8; merchants, $40 !;
physicians, 226; gentlemen, $40; rich men s
daughters, 800; total, alas. 1t may very pos
sbly be that this institution does not fairly rem
resent the cases from all classes of society or as
especially devoted to the cure of females But
all that does not materially alter the terrible
story of its records. 1t is frightful to think of
thirteen hundred young women of New York
given to the demon of drink, no matter how
the cases are collected. And again, for every
daughter handed over in dispair to the public
shame of an asylum, how many are there dying
unknown and unheard of-the skeletons in the
closets of gilded homes.
