object OF charity. That there are those
In our midst who are in need, We will
not attempt to deny, but that class do
not usually mako such a display OF their

would be judiclous 10 examine into the

WHATEVER may be said of Henry Ward
Beecher's eccentricity on some subjects,
his "head is perfectly level' ON the music
question. In o recent sermon he said !:
1T is no wonder that singing died out
from the congregation when q choir is put
up to recite words that no one can under
stand, to music that nobody knows, and
the people are left to listen to newly con-
verted opera airs, which, last week. were
brought over by a fresh troupe of foreign
singers! And those sweet melodies that
stilted propriety has long ago driven from
the churches, but which have gone forth
among the people, and rung out gloriously
in camp-neeting, shaking the forest leaves
with the ascending shouts of mighty
people; or which, more gently, have
filled rural school houses, and humble
lecture rooms and village churches, no,
yet corrupted by the false pretenses Of
classical music'-those sweet melodies
that no one can hear with his ear, and
not feel his heart beating within his bosom
all the faster for the sound-are become
the ridicule and contempt Of men who
think God must be praised to the sound oi
Meyerbeer or Rossini, and not to the
sweet and humble melodies of our OWE
land" .-.

THE CNHO,Y DESIRE OF D8EsS.

You wish to dress your wife better than
your circumstances will allow. She wants
to have you. She is a woman of spirit as
it said, and she does not mean to be
drudge. .Why should our neighbors,"
she says to her husband, "dress better than
we7" They are made Of the same flesh
and blood that we are. See how they
come out l don't think man of any
spirit would let his wife and children 20
to church dressed as you let us go. Lock
ut these children. You would think they
had just come out Of the slop house. If
/ had married as l might have marri, d,
we should have had different times-l and
my children" How many men are stung
to the quick by such remarks from their
wives? Oftentimes their moral sense re-
volts, at first, and they feel indignant; but
continual dropping wears stone = and
by-anG,by the man is dressed a little bet
chan he can afford; and somebody must
pay for the extravaganza. | do not say
that they are tempted to steal but do
say that they grind. They mean some
how TO get it outsof the mlliner, out of the
dress maker and out of the merchant.
They intend to make one hand wash the
other somehow, and they 60 into petty
meanness to bring it about. And this de-
sire to dress better than they can afford is
taking of the very enamel Of their virtue,
and taking out the very stamina Of their
religious life. Unimportant as it seems,
ostentatious vanity in dress has ruined
many family and damned many soul

The CHATTER Box.-The Chatter Boz
is talking continually. Sometimes toe
much, and again it creates great mischief.
The manner of his speech is not remar.
kable, and in his familiar discourse be
never seems to make any exertion. Refer
to something that has happened in the
neighborhood, and he will tell you all the
particulars, and often times more concern
ing both parties.
He attends nearly every social meeting.
Those that are held in fashionable houses,
and also in bar-rooms.
He has an excellent memory, and never
fails to circulate what has transpired
through the village in which he resides.
Once in a while he will try to amuse you
by telling you about his schoolmates or
acquaintances in his younger days, which
does not entertain you as much as he
imagines.
