sioners, in electing James Gibney to fill
the vacancy made By the resignation of Mr..
Schoenecker deserve great praise, and we
are pleased to record the fact. Gibney is
and has been one of the most capable Off
GERS ever on the force. No good citizen will
pretend to find fault with this choice. We
heard that Mr.. George, member of this
board, recorded his protest, copy of which
ouerulous document will be furnished the
new appointee, TO make him smile. Captain
Gibneys merit and dignity can not be dis

how much she can do to check the in
fiueuce of luxury and folly! Our coun-

fond OF foreign fashions, and it was feared
that, as we depended for luxuries on Eu-

might be checked by a SO trivial,
and yet so dangerous, as the frippery Of
f male fashions. Mrs Warren, / remem-
Der, did good service to the cause of lib

she satirized her countrywoman's love Of

(. hers: That all articles of foreign
commerce should be dispensed with, ex-
cept absolute ~necessaries.' l remember
Mrs Warren amusingly put a fancied list
Of articles an American lady could not

Fred and His Stills.

FRED is a little neighhor of mine-a
fve-years old boy, with a pleasant lace
and a little, plump, round body, so round
and "roly-poly" that he looks like a
dumping ON legs.
He stood at his fathers gate one day,
when he saw a boy coming down the
street with a pair of stills. Fred's eyes
grew big with wonder. He looked as If
he didn't know what 10 tlink-Or rather
as if he thought the stills were a part of

till he came opposite, and, planting his
back against the wall, dismounted, shoui-

Fred ran into the house, shouting

OF course. mamms didn't know what
Freddie meant; and after hearing Fred,S
story. which was rather di~sconnected
concluded he had seen a lame by walk

But at noon-time, not only one boy, bu'
a dozen, were psrsding the street mount

work of it, TO be sure. But Fred was dc

answered. "Hc is always going out upon
the black mountains, to the hot desert. and
into the wilderness of wild beasts, seeking
His lost and wandering sheep. If they
hear His voice, and follow Him, He will
bring them into His fold, where is peace
and safety.
Good Shepherd of souls" my friend
said audibly, ~liftirg upward his eyes, that
were full OF teals, "save me from the
wolvesl They wait for NE in all my
paths; they spring upon me in all nay un
guarded moments they hide themselves
in covert places, thirsting for my life
they steal upon me in sleeps clothing
they beset me everywhere! Good Shep-
herd! / have no help but in Thee"
Breaking the deep, impressive silence
that followed, l said-"In Him alone is
safety. So long as you hear His voice,
and follow Him, no wolf can touch you
with his murderous teeth. But, if you go
out Of His sheepfold, and trust in your
own strength to overcome the wild beasts
that crowd the Wilderness OF this world,
destruction is sure"
A few years have passed since then,
and Martin still holds, in divine strength,
the mastery of appetite. The vile sec
Ond nature he had formed unto himself,
anC which bore him downward, for a
time, in its steady current, grew weaker
o. weaker, as the new life, born from
above, gained strength In the degree
that he resisted and denied the old de-
sires, did they grow weaker ; and in their
place God gave him purer and healthier
desires, SO that he became, as it were, a
new man.
"The wolves are not all dead" l said to
him one day, as we talked of the present
and the past.
He looked a little sober as he replied
mo, my friend. Ioftcn bear them howl
ing in the distance; and I know full well
that i'll leave my Shepherds side, and
stray of into the wilderness, vainly trust
ing in myself, that / shall be as power
less to stand against them, az a helpless
sheep. For me, | am not safe for q mo-
ment, except when 1 trust in Gods
strength to supplement my weakness,
When l do that, all hell cannot prevail
against me !"
