An ANCIENT RELIC OF MErHoDIsM.-
Rev. n. II. Boolc of New York has come
into possession of an ancient and interest
ing relic of NIethodism. 1t is the old
church bible from which Samuel Wesley
and John Wesley, the founder of Method
ism, preached in Epworth, and which re-
manned in their parish for over 100 years.
1t was presented by one of the trustees OF
that church to a successor Of John Wesley,
Rev. Mr.. Aiken, and by him was sold to
the antiquarian Methodist bookseller Of
London, George Stephenson, from whom
Philip Phillips purchased it recently for
Mr. Boole at cost of $500. 1t is in an ex-
cellent state of preservation, considering
its age. 1t is bound in thick, unpublished
leather, the edges and corners fastened
with brass, and the covers kept together by
AN iron clasp.

Dy-aud-by! We say it softly,
Thinking Of tender hope
Stirring always in our bosoms,
Where so many longings gropc.
By-and-by! Oh, love shall greet us,
In time that is to come,
And the fears that now defeat US
Then shall oil be stricken dumb!
Dy-and-by! The mournful sorrows,
Couding DER our sky to-day,
Shall be gone in glad Tomorrow
Shall be banished quito away!
By-and-by! We say it gently,
Looking on our silent dead;
And we do not think Of earth-life,
But OF Heavens sweet life instead!
By-and-byl Oh, say it softly,
Thinking not Of earth and care,
But the by-and-by Of Heaven,
Waiting for us over there!

Poetw.


by the brook-sidc wandering,
Where wandered long ago,
In the summertime Of life,--
Now with fccbler steps and Slow
I sought the meadow cool and green,
Where grain and clover fields
Waved softly In the shade md sheen
OF passing cloud or Frightening sun;
The path, high-archcd with trees,
Making its devious way
'Mong mossy trunks and gnarled roota;
Tempting the lettering feet to stray
on either side were flowcrets rare,
Forget-mc-nots in oozy ground,
Orchids, or graceful ferns;
While the continuous sound
OF purling waters, low and sweet,
Fell soothing on the ear,
And over oil the bright blue sky
Dccked n soft clouds, or clear.
-
Alas! H but memory now
This scene of beauty rare,
All torn and Scared with streets
The meadows bosom fair;
The ancient trees all cleft
The flowers all chokcd meath cruel sands,
Only the blue sky left!
So when our carly visions gay
OF hope and love and happy years
Forever pass away,
Bright Heaven alone remains. f.

GEN. BUTLER wants Congress to piss II
law practically multiplying the recent de-
cision Of tho Supreme Court in tho legal
tender question. He has introduced q
bill forbIdding any United States or State
court to enter judgment on contracts not
specifically payable in gold for more than
the amount they call for in legal tenders.
Such law, IL enacted, would be declared
to be mere waste of paper rs soon rs 1t
could be brought before the Supreme
Court, but II might serve MS pretcxt for
litigation and delay on the part Of debtors
until n general resumption Of specie pay
mcnts; and this perhaps, Is what Gen.
Butler Is really aiming at.

Madame George sand.

Mr.. Clarence Cook, tho Paris cores
pendent Of The Tribune, translates from a
personal sketch of that delightful author,
George Sand, passage from which We
quote rs follows:
George Sand, of all the women who
have held tho pen, either In tho past or in
our own time, Is inContcstably tho least Of
n pendant, the least proud Of her position,
the most simple. There Is nothing in the
tranquil kindness of her greeting, in the
silent pOlitcneSS with which sho listens, In
the gcntlcncsS with which she listens to
your criticisms, that suggests tho woman
eager to shine, Jealous Of her position, de-
string to OvCrtop men, to DO rcCkoncd q
bluc.stOcking-if may use that some
what vulgar but expressive word. George
Sand who has been considered without
any cause Us leader in tho WOman's
Rights movement, Is rs little as possible
fitted to shine in that direction. She has
always been woman In tho most tcmt'
nine nCceptatiOn Of that word, and she
Inns always been o good woman. Tho
little dlsguiseS shc was fond Of assuming
in her youth wero the escapades Of twenty
years ago. To-day, when sec tho smil'
Ing little grandmother, with her superb
eyes, her f6co SO gentle in It's dignity, her
Bourbon lip, weaving her romance as she
sits by the cradle Of her grandchildren; !
mn touched with emotion. forget that l
am in the presence Of the greatest ofCotem
porary writers Of fiction, and clasp the
hand Of this charming old woman, who
sparklcS with all her carly youth. !
Sho writes me, in answer to my questions:
i have nothing to tell you about myself
TINT il very interesting l am growing
old, very calm and very happy In the
midst otmy family"
