a Little Difference.

Mllk1ng-tIne was always q merry, bust
ling hour at Cloverdale farm house. There
was chatter of shining pans in the dairy,
as they Were arranged on the shelves ready
for the milk. Lem went bounding off to
the lot for his cows, with the never falling
whistle on his lips. I think the COWS must
have learned his tune, for he never whis,ied
but otse Even Mary went ont with her
bickets aud cans 10 the milking-yard with
a chs erful song and pleasant word Every
where about the place there was an air of
thrift and happiness The blessings Of
| God rested upon that household. 1t is that
which ''maketh rich, and he addeth no
sorrow with it.
jest as the last milk-can had been set
away, there came stealing up the garden
path q desolate. looking little figure, bear
ing broken pitcher in his hand
''Please, ma'am, could you let mother
have q teacupful of milk for Rosy? She's
very bad again, and the doctor says she'll
die if she don s get something nourishing
to eat"
Mary looked down suspieiously into the
cracked pitcher but it was as clean as her
own spotless china. The mistress had just
entered and heard the poor child's appeal.
81 will give you ali milk enough for your
suppers, Willie, if you would like it, she
said "You can bring the pail back to-
night, if you please, and she proceeded to
pour out two quarts into q bright tin pail
fer him. ''Here is q loaf you may take to
crunb into it" she added with smile, as
the poor, bewildered hungry child scarce
ly knew what reply to make.
We will follow little Willie to his home,
and see the contrast. Look at the broken
down garden fence, the fallen gate, the
clapboards dangling in the air, the poor
old windows stuffed with rags or covered
with boards. A little brother and sister
are just coming IN from the forest, drag
ging some brushwood for the fi1e. Within,
the scene is even more wretched and sad
dening. A feeble, spirit broken mother
sits nursing wasted child, whose sunken
eyes and skeleton arms show that soon its
blessed release will come.
What makes this worldwide difference
between these two homes There was q
time when the broken-down cottage was as
neat and well-keptas theneighborlng farm
house; when the tangled yard was thrifty
ald blooming with vines and roses.
Ah the secret of it all was that the
father of one family had learned the path
to the ale-house; the other was q man OF
strict temperance principles, one who
made Gods Word his guide. The two young
men had set out in life with prospects
equally fair, with this exception. 1t seemed
a little thing to most people then, but this
had been the result. This little differ
ence in the habits of the boy and the young
man, makes all the difference in his failure
life. o the difference does not stop in this
world. ''No drunkard shall inherit eternal
life. f" Shun all the approaches to this dan
gerous way; do all you can to induce Others
to shun it.-lhs. j. E. NJ C0aauqhy, IN tn

The Russian ,EeWS.

The Russian Jews, whose transportation
to this country has so long been threaten
ed, have at last commenced to arrive,
greatly to the embarrassment of their core
ligionists, who, however, accept the res
possibility. Two or three shiploads have
already arrived and nine other vessels are
known to have been chartered by the
Emigration Committee at Konigsberg. In
view of the helpless numbers thus thrown
on their hands, the Jewish citizens of New
York last Sunday held meeting, at which
steps were taken for collecting means for
their temporary reception, until they can
be dispatched to the West. The congrega-
tions of several synagogues In different
cities have already forwarded contributions,
and all are to be solicited to do so. The
committee meanwhile, have again written
to M. Cremjeux, the European promoter OF
the movement, urging the, ,stoppage OF emil
grafton to America, except of young men
selected in accordance with prescribed
terms. From over the water, however,
comes the intelligence that new troops OF
the refugees continue to arrive at Konlgs-
berg from the Russian frontier; that they
are forwarded thence to Hamburg, whence
they are shipped to New York.

With never a word for me;
Going away, and L turn my head

All dead oTfthe darkling sea.
q Why did he leave me thus? God knowsl
Weary, / think, of his love;
He left me a kiss and anew-plucked rose,
And L for fancy's sake / suppose
Gave him my violet glove.
The ships sail over the sea, I know,
Too far for maiden's sight
The ships sail on, the strong winds blow
And some to the lands of the Orient go,
And some to the starless night
look, and over the waves afar
The white sails flicker and CLEAN,
And the ship rides gayly over the bar
But the night is black with never a star,
And my heart is sad with its dream.
Only the dim of the seas far strand,
Only the dark see;
For he left me here by the trOdden sand,
With emily 70 in my little hand,
And never q word for me

Squalls.

The game of squalls is social and jolly,
and very pleasant family amusement.
People can talk as much as they choose
while playing, and any number from three
to eight can engage in If. Ali that is need
ed is a dining-taDie-a round one whose
edge is not beveled is the best-and the
squalls, which are thus described in Work
aud Play:
The implements of the game are sixteen
discs OF wood or other suitable material,
target, which is o small metallic disc,
and a measure about three inches long
The players being seated round the
table, place their suqails near the edge,
and projecting over it about half
an inch; then with the palm of the hand,
strike the squail towards the target The
players strike in turn round the table, until
all the squalls are played, at which time the
game is decided by the greatest number of
! light or dark squalls that are within the
length of the measure from the target. AS
| the squalls play alternately, and each play
may entirely change the relation OF the
| squalls and target 10 each other, the inter-
est towards the end of the game becomes
! intense The squalls may be made OF any
material. but as weight is desirable, box
wood is superior to a any other wood, and
a material heavier than lockwood is sui
better. -,
Most of the book stores now keep the
material for the game for sale-the same as
croouet sets. The box costs about two
dollars, an extravagaat price, considering
the cost of making the set.

GEN. LEE AND ENGLISH IMMIGRA

Gen. LEE AND ENGLISH lMMIGRA-
TIoN.-A lady of Philadelphia, at
whose house Prof. Goldwin Smith
has been staying, writes to Gen.
Lee that the Prof. is very anxious
to promote emigration from En-
gland to Virginia, and "such of tho
other States us are suitable for En-
glish habitation." She further says:
Prof. Smith says that much might
be done fyou would come forward
in the matter; which, as no political
question is involved, he thinks you
might possibly consent to do. He
says that your name is regarded by
all parties in England with equal
confidence and respect, and there
fore would be most effective.
Gen. Lee replies that Englishmen
will be welcome in Virginia, and
that agriculturists especially would
find it to thei: advantage TO make
their homes in the Old Dominion.
He refers Prof. Smith to Col. Il. Ii.
Ellis, President of the Virginia I'M
migration Society. In a letter to
Col. Ellis, the General says:
l concur with Prof. Goodwin
Smith in the advantages that would
result to the State if the tide of En-
glish immigration could be turned
toward her borders; though | think
he is mistaken as to any benefits
that would arise from any address
to them signed by me. hope that
you may devise some means of at
tracing them S)uth.
