Animals in Hindoostan.

The IIindoo saint extends hospitality
alike to friends and enemies. When he
eats he shares his food with whatever
creature presents itself He refrains
from eating honey from reluctance to
deprive bees of their nOurishment. He
will not eat flesh because he shrinks
from causing the death of any animal.
He avoids lightning a candle at night
lest insects be drawn into the fame
aud he filters the water he drinks lest
he should incautiously swallow some
creature. Hindoos will rather die than
taste beef-a fact which has often been
proved on board of vessels where all the
provisions were expended except salt
beef. Indeed, all animals have degree
of sacredness TO a devsut Hindoo.-
Those that subsist on vegetables sup
posed to be favored by divine beings
They believe every animal is endowed
with thought and memory, and has
some mode of communicating its ideas
to its own species
AT Surat is Bantam hospital where
deceased and aged animals are watched
with tenderest care. Kindness towards
ANIMALS is inculcated in all the sacred
books, and everywhere practiced as a
religious duty, forms lovely feature
in Asiatic religions which Christianity
would do well to initiate. Trae it is
founded on sympathy produced by bO-
lief in the transmigation of souls. But
friendly relation between men and
animals is beautiful and good; and
though Christians do not believe the
soul of an ancestor, might have passed
into horse, they might practice human
ity from higher motive. Tenderness
toward the dumb creatures of GoD
would harmonize with the spirit of the
religion they profess; and to acquire it
they merely need to apply the first and
most obvious rule of natural religion :
SLEW should / like to be treated If
were q horse ?"

Unto Thee.

The tost ofdiseiple-ship was uttered by
Peter when the searching, pathetic ap-
peal of the Savior smote his ear and
heart, "Will ye also 60 away?" To
whom shall we go but unto Thee? is the
devoted response. Like SO many express
sions of the Bible, it puts all its force
aud fullncss into a single utterance, al
most into single word. Unto Thee is
its central soul, Christ is the all and
the end of all civilization. Christ is the
only one, who amid the psrplexities of
thought, gives the right solution of the
distracting problem. Christ alone in the
wastes of death can confer tho gift Of
eternal life. Unto Thee, is the course
which every soul should take. Are you
pursuing that pathP Do you see ct the
end of your way the serene presence of
your LordY Is He tho goal of your

Is the Lamb the light of the temple Of
your soul. DO your feelings flow in and

demands too much. They would give
him share or subordinate place in
their hearts. But he is content with
only that which is both supreme and SOW

elder day, they turn away. Are You in

Coughs Aopstrophe to Cold Water.

The celebrated apostrophe to cold wa
ter given in one of John B. Coughs
temperance lectures, is a gem. 1t is
said to have originated with Texas
Baptist preacher. 1t is somewhat modi
fled as used by Mr.. Cough. Pouring q
goblet of water and advancing toward
his audience, and lifting it above his head
he said:
"Look at that yc thirsty sons of earth
Behold it! See its purity! How it
glitters as mass of liquid gems! 1t
is beverage brewed by the hand
of the Almighty himself! Not in sim
mering still or smoking fires, choked
with poisoning gases and surrounded
by the stencil of sickeniug odors and
rank corruption, does our Father in
Heaven prepare IT, precious essencceof
lte-the pure cold water; but in the
green glade and grassy dell where the
deer wanders and the child loves to play,
there God brews it; and down in the
deepest valleys, when the fountains sing :;
and high upon the tall mountain tops,
where the storm clouds brood, and the
tbunders crash and away out upon
the wide sea, where the hurricane howls
music and the big waves roll The chorus,
sweeping the march of God-there he
brews it-that beverage of life health
giving water-and everywhere it is
thing of beauty; glimmering in the
dew drop, singing in the summer rain
shining in the ice gem-till the trees
all seemed turned into living jewels
spreading golden vail over the setting
sun or white gauze around the mid
night moon; sporting in the cataract,
sleeping in the glaciers, dancing in the
hail shower; folding its bright curtain
softly about the windy world and weav-
ing the many colored iris that searphs
zone of the sky, whose warp is the rain
drops Of the earth, whose woot is the
sunbeam of Heaven; all checkered over
with the celestial flowers of reflection,
still always it is beautiful, that blessed
lite water No poison bubbles on the
brink its foam brings no sadness or
murder

An Incident

AFTER THE BATTLE OF fAlh OAhS, NlhOlNlA
BT A. n. BUrTERFIELD. NJ. u.
Upon Virginias sacred soil
Two hostile armies met;
The one was striving TO be free
From slavery's foul net,
And one to make his mcshcs strong
And bondage to complete
To trample down races rights
- Beneath the tyrant's feet.
The battle hot and hotter grew,
The leaden rain flew fast
While many a focman bit the DUST
And quickly breathed his last.
The rebel hosts, in wild alarm,
Their footsteps backward trod,
While freedoms sons, with stalwart arm,
Pursued in strength of God.
BY chance one spicd fallen foe,
The death-shot in his frame,
The purple tide swift oozing out
Was qucnching lifes bright flame.
: A kindly hand his wants supplied
And soothed his heated brow.
"Wil you" the dying foeman cried,
"Bcfore my God now bow,
"And pray for me, whose spirit soon,
Soon shall leave this earthly clod,
And from this CORY battlefield
..,.-. Shall go to meet its God?"
Il,
The kind one then did say:
Although l blush to own the truth,
know not how to pray"
Twas then upon his painting steed,
In hot pursuit uprode
A man of Sheridan's brave hosts,
sr.a Who loved and served his Lord.
And at the dying foes request
He bent the suppliant knee,
And raised his voice and heart to God,
While Jesus was the plea.
And while his strains in cloquence
Rang out upon the air,
And scared aloft like incense sweet
TO him who heareth prayer,
The dying foeman's face grew calm,
His eye with love grew bright
For one who but an hour ago
Met him in deadly fight.
He strovc to clasp his feeble arms
Around the suppliants neck;
The effort proved too much by far
Alas! they were too weak.
And when the warm and fervent prayer
In simple faith had closed,
| A smile serene was on his lips
The spirit was released.
| With heart now warm with love divine
The hero onward sped,
Rejecting on that sunbright cline
Where no more blood is shed.
Longing to see the day arrive
When wars sad notes shall cease,
And frecmens efforts shall be crowned
By long-continued peace.

GRAPE VINES ON TREEs.-It is an
easy matter to lead grape vines on to
single trees, and in this way considerable
fruit may be grown at little expense,
Low headed trees are best for this pur~
pose, like apple orbutternut, The vines
should be planted in good soil, several
feet distant from the trunk, and single
cane led up pole to some strong limb,
whence it will spread over the entire
head of the treO. The stem OF the vine
should be protected against injury from
stock. Vine covered trees would add to
the picturesqueness of many landscapes,
and repay the cost aside from the fruit,
but we wouldn't any one TO grow less
vines in his garden or vineyard on ac-
count of covering few unsightly trees

ADVICE TO GlRLs.-Young ladies, the
whole secret with nine tenths of you, OF
not being able to secure good husbands,
is simply that yon don't know how to
work. You have no knowledge of prac-
tical housekeeping and consequently are
useless as helpmates. Instead of being
an assistance to husband, you are ar OBJ
stacle to his success. Your style OF liV-
ing, two, is incompatible with his means.
You want to begin housekeeping where
your parents left of, not as they began,
and there are few young men who have
not already a good income, can afford to
marry you.
There is no possible objection to the
accomplishments of music, painting, and
the like, as such, but the idea is to be
able to set these prior amusemsnts aside
for the period when the stern duties Of
married lie call for your practical know
ledge. Show the young man that you
can do your part of double business, and
that YOU win not be dead expense tc
him through life. Believe us young
friends, as many true, heroic, womanly
hearts beat over household duties al
futter beneath the soft light of a parlol
chandelier. Your kiss is just as sweet
your smile Just as bright, your heart al
happy and tender after days exertior
in q sphere worthy of true womanhood
as in places of dissipation, fippery and
silly amusement. Have an ambition tC
do your part in life cultivate industrial
habits, and let tho paelor accomplish
ments 90 With the higher accomplish.

A Day cf Rest.

The n. Y. Times, commenting on an article
fer their Sabbath from the seventh day to the
first day of the week, forcibly says
Crest being the great cardinal idea
upon which Sunday is based, it is and
should be doubly priced by us over
worked Americans. Already the nerves
and brains of our people are taxed be-
yond endurance. On every hand, we
sec tnghtful evidences of this in the
increase of paralysis, insanity, attenua-
ton, nerve disease in every form; we
see onr people, as they get into the har-
ness of life, abandoning all relaxation
and amusement, or plunging into it, il
at all, in the excitement of wine, horse
racing, g., g.; and we see, as a matter
of course, men and women wrecks at
forty, or lying fast asleep under "green
bedclothes," their work and their lives
but half done.
Now, whatever views men may have
about the proper observance OF this
divine day, whether they advocate the
practices of Catholic Rome, or Puritan
Boston, all will admit that it ought to
be day of rest. We hold 1t to he
vital thing that all our people on this
one day of seven-even if they do not
go inside a church-lay aside the plow
and hammer, drop their buying and sell
ing, shave and wash and dress them
selves dccently, walk about with theil
families, read their books or newspapers
and thus change the drift of theil
thoughts as well as their occupations.
We believe this is vast benefit, mas
much as it secures relaxation of til,
tenison of daily toll and speculation
even if it docs nothing more: and W.
know that this rest of one day in sever
is a most important fact i'll securing
health to onr people"
The views of the Times have long seemed
to us sound and important Hence, we deem
it advisable to issue our journal six days il
the week rather than seven. If there be an.
such "vital thing"-such "reviving and renew
ing of life" as the Times commends, VIII.
should not newspaper men share its advanta
