funerals To bury friend in winter is kind
Of trial that connects strange inward commo-

We have cleared away the snow and hewn a

come to bury our departed, be it child. or
wife, or mother, or much loved friend. Our
heart shadders, in a convulsiye chill, at the
forlorn last offices we are come to perform.
While our feeling is protesting, the solemnity,

blows, are piled on the loved ones rest, and
we turn to go. "Will it storm tonight 2

The court then adjourned.
WASHINGTON, April IL.
BY reason of the illness of Mr.. Stanbery,
the impeachment court adjourned without
transacting any business.
TuE IMPEACHMENT TRIAL, on the 10th, pro-
sentod little of interest, Mr. Stanbcry still
being absent from indisposition. A fresh dis
cussion Of the subject of giving greater lati-
tude TO the counsel in their closing arguments
resulted in postponing the whole question
- to 10. The court also refused to change
their hour of meeting from II to IL o'clock
"a to 26.
Gen. ID. W. G. Clarke executive clerk OF
the Senate, was called and testified in relation
to the nomination of Hon. Thomas Ewing "a
Secretary of War, Feb. %, 1868. Docu-
mentary evidence was then offered until re.
cess was taken ni ~ O'Clock.
WASHINGTON, April l6.
Mr.. Stanbery is still absent from indispo-
sition.
Mr. Sumner offered an order to admit all
evidence offered Rejected--33 to IL.
Walter :. Cox was then called and examin-
ed regarding the arrest aud attendant pro-
cecdings of his client, Gen. Thomas.
The managers obiceting to this testimony
being admitted, after long discussion the
Senate overruled the objection--25 to II.
Mr.. Cox then gave an account Of the pro-
eeedings in the ease Of Gen Thomas, saying
il wus their intention to get "A writ of habeas
corpus from the supreme court. This could
only be done after a commitment had been
made by the court, and as the court where
Thomas bail surrendered him refused to res
train him Of his personal liberty they were
unable to make the issue. This witness was
not allowed to give his subsequent conyersa-
tion with the President on the occasion Of
reporting the failure to get writ of habeas
corpus. He was not allowed to state what
the Attorney General said, and the counsel
then announced that they were through with
the witness.

Keen the BIRTHDAYS.

Keep the birthdays religiousy. They be-
long exclusively to, and are treasured among
the sweetest memories at home. DO not let
pny thing prevent some token, be it ever SO
light to show that it is remembered. Birth
days are great, even to children. For one
day they feel that they are heroes The spec
ial pudding is made expressly for them II
new jacket or trousers with pockets, or the
first pair Of boots are donned; and big broth
ers and sisters sink into insignifcanee beside
"littIe Charlie who is " six to-day aud is
soon going to be man. Fathers who
have half a dozen little ones to care for are
apt to neglect birthdays they come too often,
sometimes when they are busy, and sometimes
when they are nervous" but if they only
knew how much such souvenirs are cherished
by the children, years after, they would never
permit any cause to step between them and u
parents privilege.

these Businesses the r'bbers can sally forth

parted, On one Monday morning he was in-
formed diat man who, the preceding evening
had listened to his discourse in his usual
he.fh, had suddenly been ushered into eterni-
~. His personal responsibility to preach the
Gospel to men, as dying men-as to those
who for aught he knew, might he about to
appear at the bar of God-at once flashed
upon his mind. Rising anxiously from his
seat. he proceeded to examine the manuscript
of the sermon which the departed soul had
last heard, with the intensely earnest hope that
he should find in it as much Gospel truth as
had it been there and then, through the grace
of God, understood and believed by the de-
parted hearer would have saved his soul. To
his inexpressibe grief after the examination
was over, he found the contrary. He saw
that the hearers might have believed every
word of that discourse, and remained unsayed
The sermon was scriptural and well prepared
lacking in nothing save the gospel suited to 4
dying man. Penetrated with sense of hi'
unfaithfulness on that one occasion (tor, gen
orally, he was distinguished for the constancy
ardor, and faithfulness with which he preach
ed the glorious Gospel and for many seals tC
his ministry,) he burst into a food of tears
and falling down at the mercy-seat, confessed
before God with much contrition, his dreaC
omission and ere he rose from his knees h,
made the solemn vow that, with Divine help
to the day of his death, he would neve
preach sermon without setting forth as mucl
of the glorious Gospel as would if truly be
lieved, save any unregenerated soul then pres
ent, who might be about to enter the world o
