"Now FIRE A SHOT IF You DARE =
We read in the papers lately how a
man was saved from being shot. He
had been condemned ia a Spanish
court, but being an American citizen,
and also of English birth, the consuis
OF the two countries interposed, and
declared that the Spanish authorities
had no power to put him to death
and what did they do to secure his
life? They wrapped him up in their
flags they covered him with the
Stars and Stripes and the Union Jack,
and defied the executioners. "Now
fire a shot if you dare for if you do,
you defy the nations represented by
those flags, and you will bring the
powers Of these two great nations
upon YOU" There stood the man.
before him the soldiery, and though
q shot might soon have ended his
life, yet he was az invulnerable as
though in cost of triple steel. Even
so Jesus Christ has taken my poor
guilty soul ever since believed in
Him, and has wrapped around me
the blood-red flag of His stoning sac
rifice and before God can destroy
me or any other soul that is wrapped
in the atonement, He must insult
His son and dishonor this sacriHce ;
and that He never will do, blessed
cd be His Nance. IL. Spurgeon.

Warning to Husbands.
From the Revolution.

The greatest want of the women
at present liz money-money for their
personal wants and money to carry
out their plans | propose that they
shall earn, that they shall consider
it as honorable to work for money
as for board, and / demand for them
equal pay for equal work. demand
that the bearing and rearing OF chill
dren, the most exacting of employ
ments, and Involving the most terri
bic risks, shall be the best paid work
in the world, and husbands shall
treat their wives with st least as
much confederation, and acknowl-
edge them entitled to as much money
as wet nurses.
The meaning of this is, that wives
are about to strike for greenbacks !;
so much for every baby born. No
greenbacks, no more sons and daugh-
ters. No greenbacks, no more pop
ulstion; no more boys to carry on
the great enterprises of the age
The scale Of prices for maternal dp-
ties are as follows:

Antiquity Of Man in the United
States.

Col. Cl&s. Whittlesey has obtained
evIdence,ot the existence of two races
of men, and possibly Of = third in
termodlate race, as having held pos
session of the northern portion Of the
American continent--the more re-
cent Of them being the North Ameri-
can Indian or red men the earlier
race he terms the mound-builders.-
The antiquaries Of Europe regard the
people who used flint instruments as
being prior to those who had nipple
ments of stone and the latter again,
as older than the races using bronze
or other metals. In the United
States, the race next prior to the
white man bad very few implements
OF stone; their knives and arrow
heads, their war implements, and
their agricultural tools, were almost
entirely of flint they had very few
and rude instruments of native cop
per. The mound-builders, on the con-
trary, who preceded the red men,
produced and used tools in the rev.
erse order: their axes, ADDE'S, and
mauls were very numerous, and
sometimes Of stone; their copper
tools abundant; bat those of flint
very rare. Hence, in this instance,
the most ancient people were the
most industrious they cultivated the
soil they possessed more mechanical
ingenuity, and left more prominent
and permanent monuments. On the
Atlantic coast, from Nova Scotia to
Florida, are numerous shell heaps,
Identical with those of Sweden, Nor
way, and Denmark ,iand known as
kjokkenm@ddings. The examina-
tion Of several caves gave bones of
the wolf, deer, bear, rabbit, ETC.,
mixed NTH skulls of the red race,
and not dating back apparently more
than 1000 years. Col. Whittlesey es-
Inmates 1000 years as the period also
OF occupation by the mound-building
race, which docs not take US back as
far as the beginning of the historical
period in Asia and Africa.

II May Is wet-Juiy will DO dry.
Both barn and cellar full will set,
Should day be cool, and June DO wet
when May 10 COOL good crops will rule.
May dews the meadow with green Invest,
Hut Nay frosts are unwelclme guests
Ii the cry oil the peacock is long
and loud at night, it may be copsid-
cred the forerunner of rain.
The next is somewhat hyperbolical
and withal rather indefinite;
Would May gardener be,
Naught in the barn brings he,
Referring to particular days, we
find the following recorded OF the

Rain on the walpurgis light,
IL to tho throsher welcome sight
II on the hls, rain docs appear,
II shows good crops and n fertile year.
There is tradition, and experience
seems to Justify it, that:
Up to the 18th, often indeed to the
18th, there is danger of hurtful frosts
