Bruren, on passing house on Third street below

had exploded, and that the burning oil was running

old woman sound asleep. The Lieutenant extiu-

narrow escape she had made. The house is occu-
pied by some six or eight families, and had the
flames gained headway several lives would doubt

which ReverSiouary Bonuses, averaging

Its career, during a period Of 80 years,
has clearly demonstrated the fact that the
lives of persons residing in this part Of
the world, are, when carefully selected,
almost as valuable as those Inhahlting
Europe, and that they do not demand
such excessive Premiums as are charged
by every other Company.

Only Waiting.
Only waiting till the shadows
Are a little longer grown
Only waiting till the glimmer
or tho days last beam has flown;
Till the night of earth has faded
From the heart once full of day,
Till the stars Of Heaven are breaking
Through the twilight soft and gray.
Only whiting till the reapers
Have the last sheaf gathered home,
For the summer time is faded,
And the autumn winds have come;
Quickly, reapers, gather quickly,
The last hours Of my sad heart,
For the bloom OF life is withered,
And I'm longing to depart.
Only waiting till the angels
Open wide tho mystic gate,
at whose portals have fingered,
Weary, poor, and desolate;
Even now hear their footsteps
And their voices far away;
If they call me, am waiting
Only waiting to obey.
Only waiting till the shadows
Are little longer grown,
Only waiting till the glimmer
or the days last beam is flown;
Then from out the gathering darkness
Holy, deathlcas stars shall rise,
By whose light my soul shall gladly
Wing it's passage to the skies

PRESENT CONDITION OF THE SHAKERs-A cor

giving information derived from a residence of
fourteen years in one of their communities. He
concludes as follows
at cannot be concealed that for the last ten
or fifteen years their numbers have been diminish

retired selfdenial, and offfty children they bring

is at hand an awakening, as in the days ofMoth-
er Ann and their villages will speedily be filled to
overfowing. This is the secret hope at the bot
tom of the pains they have taken of late to make
their creed and forms of worship popularity
known. They now number eighteen societies
and not more than three thousand members
About one hundred Swedes have lately Joined
the Kentucky community. The point of their
failure is simple enough they can't inspire faith
The majority of those who now join them are

stances, glad to get so good home and clothes.
These bring up at the Shaker village in the win

the society can afford to give them very little,
and nine times out of ten the few dollars they get
are more than they deserve. Beggars always
find the Shakers generous and hospitable. There
are few well educated people among them. Such
men as Giles Avery and F. W. Evans are very
rare in their ranks. Elder Evans is man of
stroug though eccentric intellect, and would
have been notable in any station. In business
point of view the Shakers have certainly been
very successful. Beginning with the rocky farms
