THE KNIGHTLY SOLDIER.

Lippincott's Magazine for February
contains an article on the sChristian
Commission" in which many touching
stories are told. Here il one which. as
an instance of generous self denial, is
certainly unsurpassed by Sidney's ia
nous declaration. Thy necessity is
greater than mine:'
Two OF us picked up man in our
arms to carry MIN off the field. A shell
had struck him in the mouth leaving an
awful wound which was bleeding pro-
fusely. Ioffered the poor fellow drink
from my canteen, One would not have
guessed, in looking at him that be could
have any thoughts beyond his wound at
the time. The first sensation after
wound is well known, to be of intense
thirst. Yet the soldier refused the prof.
fered draught. l asked him why ..My
mouths all bloody, sir, and it might
make the canteen bad for the others. -
He Was .'onIy a private" rough and
dusty with the battle, but the answer
was one which Sir Philip Sidney or the
Chevalier Bayard, sane pesor ct sans re-
proeAe, had not equalled when they gave
utterance to the words which have made
their flames immortal. s~ - s r-.--
The following is told by delegate at
Mission Ridge: -. ---
We met four soldiers bearing back
eomrade on blanket The men halted
when they saw US and laid down their
burden, asking if we would see whether
the color sergeant was badly wounded.

brigade to which he belonged had car

rallying under the colors which had
dropped from his shattered arm, was
shouting the victory for which he had
given his young life, but Of which he
was dying without the sight.

A PRAYER ANswERED-The age of
miracles, it is said, passed away from
earth with the falling footsteps of the
Saviour. but the following incident, rela
ted by the Newton (Iowa) Republican,
tells Of case almost akin to a miracle.
That paper says:
''From private letter to one of the
editors Of this paper, from onr former
fellow citizen. Rev. G. W. Rawlings,
we learn most remarkable instance of
the answer of prayer. Mr.. Rawlings is
this winter holding revival meetings at
Lynnville, and informs us that ninety
eight have joined the church and one
hundred been converted, and the good
work goes on. Among the converts
were one aged husband and wife, fifty
or sixty years old, who had son deaf
and dumb. The boy is eight years old,
and six years ago he lost his hearing
and speech by a severe attack of spotted
fever. After the conversion of the pa
rents. they began to pray for the resto
ration oftheir child, and how the boy
can hear distinctly and is learning to
talk. The name Of the old mnn is G..

come to our knowledge since the. death

CURE FOR NkuRALGIA.-The editor Of
the Alta Californian says that the fol-
lowing recipe is cure for neuralgis,
and that it has been effective in several
cases which came under his knowledge:
Half q drachm of sal amonia in an ounce
OF camphor water, to he taken a tea-s
spoonful ut a dose, and the dose repea-
ted several times, at an interval of five
minutes, If the pain he not relieved at
once. Half a dozen different persons
hove since tried the recipe, and in every
case an Immediate cure has been effected.
In one the sufferer. lady, has been
affected for more than a week, and her
physician had been unable to alleviate
her snferings. when o solution of sal
ammonia and camphof water relieved
her in few minutes. s48a niRK fa ~

Poor Jesse Bright.

This once renowned politician Of In
diana, having been expelled from the
United States Senate because of his aid
ing and abetting the rebellion, left the
State and removed to Kentucky. with
the hope of regaining his lost honors,
and once more securing a fat office.
BY dint of perseverance and professions
Of dsloyaity he at last succeeded in
securing seat in the rebel legislature
of Kentucky, and hoped to step from
that high position into the United States
Senate But in this he was sadly mis-.
taken. His competitor, Mr. McCreary,
distanced him. on the first ballot, and
thus the last hope OF the expelled Sena-
tor has failed, and he is left to drag out
a miserable old age in private life. there
to reflect on the great and almost un-
pardonable political sins of his early
life. Not more bitter were the refec-
tions Of Benedict Arnold, for the dam
ming deeds which stamped infamy on
his name, there to rest forever.
Treason is a great crime and will
bring its own punishment sooner or la
ter. The traitor may escape the latter,
but he cannot escape his own reflections
he cannot Danish the shadows of his
own evil deeds. They will haunt him
to the end of life, and darken every step
of his pathway.

The World was yesterday made happy

County never, within our memory, gave
less than three to one for. any ticket
labeled Democratic, and has usually
gone much higher. They used to burn

of that dark county. Three Loco Focos

SOCIETY OF FRIENDS IN ENGLAND.-ln
several parts of England the attention
of the Society of Friends has recently
been directed to the utilization of some
of the shut up or almost disused meet
ing houses, which, through the decrease
Of the Society, have become numerous
in certain districts. Thus, in Bncklng-
hamshire (once the home of Penn, Pen
nington, Eilwood, and other Quaker
worthless, in Oxford, Sussex, the York
shire dales, Cornwall and W Westmoreland.
many places, which once were graced
by fourishing assemblies of Friends,
now know their places no more, except
by tradition. or by the merest remnant
Of their former congregations. But
since the revival of Quaker energy and
philanthrophic zeal during the past ten
years, cheering proof of resuscitated
activity has been afforded by the re
opening OF some of the old meetings
and by their conversion into Sabbath
schools, or places for free services for
the poor Two of the London Quaker
chapels, those at Peel, in Clerkenwell,
and at Ratcliffe, in the East end, are
thus regularly used for the purposes of
home mission work amongst the lowest
and most neglected classes of the sur
rounding population. In several parts
of Yorkshire and Westmoreland, simi-
larscnergetic movements are going on
amongst the Friends Thus. at the viii
lage of Bentham, on the western slopes
OF Ingleborough mountain, above Lune-
dale, an almost deserted but ancient
meeting house, which, q few years ago,
was attended by about six persons only
on each Sabbath, has subsequently been
increased to regular congregation of
upwards Of fifty Friends, mainly through
the active house-to- house evangelization
ofya. zhomely zealous Quaker, zDaleswo-
men (lately deceased,) and the cooper
alton of wealthy manufacturer of the
same persuasion. On the whole, the
present prospects of English Qaakerism
are decidedly Frightening in many local
iiies.-London Chaistian Times. sze H.
