SELECT POETRY.

EDGAR A, PoE.-We gave, last week, upon
the outside of the Telegraph, an account Of
the death of the poet Poe, dying as the. fool
dieth. A correspondent in the Painesville Id
rsrtiser publishes poem by Poe, "in the Spirit
Life" i" entitled 'sResurrexi' as the writer says,
Through Miss Lizzie Doten, at the conclusion
of a lecture in Boston some years since" We
don't know much about the spirit life through
Miss Lizzie but we deem the poetry SO sweet,
and withal breathing SO devotional spirit,
that, we are moved to republish it, as, perad-
venture, injustice may have been done the poet,

The Religion ofAbyssinia.

Abyssinia has had Christian Church
since the days of Athauasius, who sent
mission from Alexandria, of which he
was Bishop, in the year 335 of our year.
The Abyssinian Christian creed is sub
stantially that of the Greek Church. 1t
enjoins also many Jewish observance,
such as circumcision, tabernacle service,
Sabbath (not Sunday observance and
abstinence from blood and from pork.
Baptism, and Communion, Lent aud fast
ing on Wednesdays & Fridays, are strict
ly observed Abyssinia is the Switzer-
land of Africa, and its churches, ofwhich
almost every village has one though no
better than barn or cowhouse Ill style,
are always placed in commanding posi-
ton, surrounded by the fine trees OF the
country, the candelabra tree, Towering
aloe, the myrtle, the mimosa, the baln-
boo, the cedar and the fern. In each
church is a sacred enclosure into which
brides can even secure the admission OF
any save the priests. In this are pre-
served the manuscript Bibles, written in
the old Ethiopic characters and freely
illustrated in very rude way. One OF
these illustrations represents God crea-
ting man, holding Adam and Eve by the
hand, while number of human heads
are distributed about, all ''after his own
image" The Abyssinian Bible is said
to contain writing not contained In
our Scriptures, the book of Henock.
Within recent times rude artists have
abundantly adorned the Abyssinian
churches with pictures. One of these,
one of the most remarkable, i'll which the
crossing of the Read Sea is represente.d,'
shows the host of Pharaoh holding Ao-
yssinian match-locks high above thelr
heads. The number of priests Is enor- 7.
nous. When Gondar was the capitoi II
had forty-tour churches, and every one
of these had above three hundred priests
or deacons. They are black, of course,
or dark brown, but all their religious
pictures represent the saint in heaven as
Of pure white skin, and clad in red and
yellow dressing gowns.

the cemfning contest. Its past record
cannot be blotted out or forgotten. Il
there had been no Republican party, a
free press and free speech would be as
unknown from the Potomac to the Rio
Grande, IS ten years ago. If the Re
publican party could have been stricken
from existence when the banner of re-
bellieni was unfurled, and when the
response of no coercion was heard at the
North, we would have had no nation to
day. But for the Republican party dar-
ing to risk the odium of the tax and
draft laws, our flag could not have been
kept flying in the field until the long
hoped for victory came. Without Re
publican party, the Civil Rights Bill, the
guarantee of equality under the law to
the humble and the dcfenseless, as well
as to the strong, would not be to-day
upon our national statute book.
With such inspiration from the past.
and following the example of the found
ers of the Republic, who called the vic
torious General of the Revolution to
preside over the land his triumphs had
saved from its enemies, l cannot doubt
that our labors will be crowned with
success, and it will be- a success that

consumed in the system to give it life,
and the carbon, an agent destructive to
human lite, is then absorbed by the
leaves of plants, through their under
surfaces. Now, at night, this condition
is reversed. The vegetation exhales the
carbon in that quantity, which, diffused
through the atmosphere, produces dull
ness and disposes all to sleep. In a
crowded room, the oxygen is consumed
in short time and the undue proportion
of carbon left produces fainting, asphyx-
Ia, and even death. Carbon sinks in a
room and even dogs die by this gas, be-
fore ventilation in crowded audiences
can effect them. -'sa i.'s---
There is no other proportion than the

mind if too much oxygen, then we lave

the former.
When morning dawns, the vegetation
which decomposed the earbonic, acid to
retain the oxygen and throw off at night
the carbon, now exhales the oxygen, and
inhales the carbon. All nature wakes
to renewed life, with recuperated ener-
gies. This is wonder! TO know that

Philosophy of Sleep.

How many persons awake from their
couches fully invigorated by sleep, and
bestow not even a thought upon the
cause of this blessed boon to man. The
day is made for man, in which to labor,
and the night that he may sleep, to
renewed life. How many think that
sleep is conventional, habit only, when
if that were the case, man could sleep
as soundly in the daytime Sleep is OBJ

LITTLE THINGs-The preciousness of
little things was never more beautifully
expressed than in the following moroccan
by b. F. Taylor:
Little martin boxes of homes are gen.
orally the most happy and cozy; little
villages are nearer to being atoms Of a
shattered paradise than anything We
know Of; aud little fortunes bring the
most content, and little hopes the least
disappointments. 9'szefiieis7 "a
Little words are tie sweetest to hear;
little charities fly turthest, and stay lon
gest on the wing little lakes are the
stillest, little hearts the fullest, and lit
tie farms best titled. Little books are
the most read, and little songs most low
ed. And when nature would make any
thing especially rare and beautiful, she
makes it little, little pearls, little dia-
monds, little dews.
Every body calls that little that they
love best on earth. We once heard a
good sort ofa man speak of his little
wife, and we fancied that she must be a
perfect little bJou of a wife. We saw
her, and she weighed 2I0; we were sur
prised But then it was no joke; the
man meant it. He could put his wiferin
his heart, and have room for other things
beside; and what WAS she but precious,
and what was she but little ?
Multum in Pravo-much in little-is
the great beauty OF all we love best hope
for most, and remember the longest. b q

Test is found in faith. He who, when

surface of skin, presenting when unwash-
ed dingy appearance, there viii be,
seen rough corrugated surface, with
deep, irregular furrows, in which the for.
eign particles are deposited like earth
among the rough paying-stones of ..

an easy matter to dislodge them with q

waste-pipes of the body, are continually
discharging into these open drains pers<,
spiration and oil, which by evaporation
become cement to hold the particles of
dust, etc, and to remove them requires
both chemical and mechanical action
Warm water softens this cement, ex-.
pands the ftirrows, and makes the skin.
Ipliable so that by rubbing, the soil IS
disturbed and partially removed. But
chemistry must aid little before the
process is complete soap is therefore,
added, the alkali of which unites with
'the oily matters, and the whole is then
easily disposed of The towel is useful,
because its soft threads or fibeFs work
down among the fnrrows like, so many
little brooms, sweeping them out hence
it should be soft aud pliable. Flannel is
preferable to cotton for this purpose, and
a sponge is best of all. Harsh, strongly
alkaline soap should be avoided, as it abc
stracts all the oil from the upper layer
of the skin, and makes it chap or crack,
1Cold-cream soap is best, being neutral
Where a sponge is not obtainabfe, very
