SATURDAY NIGHT

How many kiss has been given
how many eurse-how many a ca
ress-how many looks of hate-how
many a promise has been broken
how many heart has been wrecked
how many a soul lost-how many a
loved one lowered to the narrow
chamber-how many babe has gone
forth from earth to heaYen-how
many little crib or cradle stands si-
lent now, which last Saturday night
held the larest treasures of the heart?
A week Is a life. A week is a histo-
ry. A week marks events of sorrow
or of gladness which people never
heed. Go home you heart erring
wanderer. Go home, to the cheer
that awaits you, wronged waif on
life's breakers. Go home 10 your
family, man of business. Go home
to those you love, man of toll, and
give one night to the joys and COM
forts fast flying by. Leave your
books with complex figures-leave
everything-your dirty shop, your
busy store. Rest with those You love {;
God alone knows what next Sat
urday night win bring you. Forget
the world of care, the battles with
life which have furrowed the week
Draw close around the family hearth.

An Incident Of the Late War.

A CLERGYMAN in Lexington, Virginia,
who served as chaplain in the Confeder
ate army, from the beginning to the end
OF the late civil war; sends AIS an account
OF the following strange incident, which,
he assures us, may be depended on as
strictly true:
Among the Confederates wounded at
the battle of Antietam, who fell into the
hands of the Union forces, was a young
private Of good family, named F., from
the mountain region of Virginia. He was
a boy at school when the war broke out,
and abandoned his studies to shoulder a
musket in the army of General Lee. He
was shot through the lungs at Antietam,
and, after lying for long time on the
field, was carried to Union hospital, and
tenderly cared for by Maryland surgeon
attached TO the Northern army, under
whose skillful treatment the young Vir-
ginian soon became convalescent. The
Marylander conceived strong liking for
his patient, and, procuring his release on
parole, took him TO his own house, where
he remained in comfort and security until
he Was exchanged, when he returned to
the Confederate army.
Some Time late in the war, the Mary
land surgeon, while with his regiment in
Virginia, got separated from his comrades,
and, being cut Off from joining them by
Early's cavalry, took to the woods to
avoid capture, and wandered for several
days among the forests and mountains
until he became utterly exhausted with,
fatigue and hunger. In this desperate
strait, he resolved to apply for help at the
first house he should come to, even at the
risk of being arrested and consigned to a
rebel prison. He soon reached dwelling
Of the better class, in which he found at
home an intelligent looking lady and
several small children. He made himself
known as a surgeon in the Union army
and asked for food and shelter. The
lady replied that Federal surgeon had
been very kind to her son while prisoner
OF war, and for his sake she would do
what she could for the stranger This
remark led to mutual inquiries and expla-
nations, from which the Marylander
learned that the house to which he had
thus accidentally wandered was the home
of Young p, his patient from the
field of Antietam II may easily be i'm
agined that he was warmly welcomed to
its hospitalities, and provided in due time
with the means of regaining the Union
lines in safety-ApgLetOn's Journal

An Arab Sermon.


ONE morning Eddyn Effendi assembled
his pulpit to preach, and, addressing his
hearers, said
80 believers, know ye what am going
to talk about?'
They replied that they did not
Well then" rejoined he, "since you
do not know, do you suppose l am going
to tell your"
Another morning he again appeared in
the pulpit and said:
90 believers, know ye not what am
going 10 tell your"
They replied that they did.
If you know it, then" said he, " need
not tell it to you;" and he descended from
his pulpit, and went his way.
His auditors, puzzled what to do, at
length agreed that, if he again made his
appearance, some of them would say they
did not know, others that they did.
And again Eddyn Effendi mounted into
the pulpit and said
40 Mussulme, know ye what am 90
ing TO say 10 your"
To which some replied;
1--WE know;" others, ave know not. ="
GOOD !" returned he, "let those who
know tell those who do not"

How Candies are Made.

WOULDN'T you like to go with me to
that mysterious land of sweets, where all
the candies come fromG
l suppose you imagine it to be some eX-
quisite, fairy-lik place, where little elves
measure, concoct, mix, stir up and roll out
the various kinds of bon-bons which you
buy in nice boxes No such thing ON the
contrary, il is q commOnplace-lo looking
brown building that l shall take you into,
and, instead of fairies, you will see big
men, with their sleeves rolled up, working
in huge cellars, before immense furnaces,
where the delicious sweets are melted and
mixed.
Think of seeing a brawny-armed man
rolling a "chunl." of soft candy into
stick, two OF three feet long, ornamenting
it with stripes of different colored candy,
and at last cutting it into lengths to sell
for penny.
1t is wonderful how much work is ex-
pended on little things. Gum drops and
cordial drops of various kinds are all
formed in mOulds. Perhaps you have
wondered how the delicious drop of pear
or pineapple essence gets into the center
of a cordial drop. 1t Is thus when the
sugar is a beautiful, clear liquid, like water,
and ready TO come up, they mix with it
some of the essence, and pour it into the
moulds. The sugar ct once crystalizes,
becomes hard and white the essence does
not crystalize, and remains in the middle
of the sugar crystal.
Flat candies, like hearts, crosses, DC,
are cut out of thin sugar dough- as you
have seen biscuit cut from fiour dough.
Some kinds are pressed into shape, while
soft, by rollers with figures or words on
them, which figures Of course, ore I'M
pressed upon the candy. -hb
1t takes many men TO make the candies
thai are sold in this one building, and it
takes thirty-fiye girls to sell them. You
would fancy that a good many choice
sweets would find their way between the
lips of these thirty-tive girls; but their
employer Is wise man, and he takes
pains to cure his clerks of that desire, the
first thing. This is how he does II When
a new clerk comes to him, he gives her
cordial leave to eat as much as she wishes.
Well, girls are all fond of sweets, and the
new hand Is surs 70 stuff herself To such
an extent as b make herself sick and
after that day she wants no more candy.
Girls sometimes remain fiye or SIX years
in the house, and never taste sugar plum
This result seems Incredible, but II has
been proved by years OF experience.
In Paris, where the most delightful bon
bons are made, they are put into exqulsite
little baskets, or boxes, lined with tAlin'
and tied with delicate ribbon, or sar-
landed with flowers. In tact, the caskesis

Duties of Young Men to Society.

IT is the duty of young men TO do all
they can to elevate society.
To do this they must be honest, indus
trious, gentlemanly, and charitable.
Honest rs this is the only way to live
happily. This has been proven by the
experience of many men; SO, if ever
tempted TO do dishonest act, that time
honored maxim, ("Honesty is the best
policy should enter our minds with ten
fold force, and we should cast from us any
thought or implication of dishonest inn
port.
industrious: because it is our duty to
do something towards our own support;
although we may have kind parents, who
will provide us with the necessaries of life,
yet, we should try to improve our time in
some manner, so that we may benefit our
selves and those around us. In the ami
NAL and vegetable Kingdoms, on this globe,
we see the young of either class provided
for, but, when they arrive at suitable ages
they are required to provide for them
selves. This is true, with the exception
of a few domestic animals which me n pro-
vides for, but, by providing for them, he
finds their value increased beyond what it
would be if they were in wild state, and
he thus receives compensation for his
trouble.
If this is true of animals and vegetables,
why is it not the duty of young men to do
something towards their own supportY
We do not pretend to say how this shall
be done; but every young man Should
choose some occupation, suited to his taste,
and labor industriously in that occupa.

Gentlemanly: as by so doing we i'm.
prove ourselves and in the same degree,
that we improve, those around us over
whom we have any influence, be it ever
so light, win improve.
Charitable: for by being charitable we
can help many people over the hills and
rough places in life it is not always ne
cessary to extend charity in the form of
worldly goods, but, be charitable in spirit /;
have feeling of sympathy for others in
their Affections; though, If charity in the
form of worldly goods is required, do not
give begrudgiEgly, but give what you can,

She was allowed to depart, and the clerk
informed her employer OF what had oc-

residence of the lady, when dialogue
somewhat in this fashion occurred

hanging from one corner of the mutf,
which she took In her hand, and in
twinkling, from beneath the lining she
drew forth the identical scarf which had
been "kleptomanized" the day before, re-
marking quickly as she did so:
There, thought you had forgotten it."
The kleptomaniac burst into tears, and
prayed the lady clerk not to let her hus.
band know of it. She would pay for it..
"Here," said she, take this and pay for
It." handing the clerk SEQ bill. The lady
clerk took the money and the scarf and in
short time thereafter the messenger of
the establishment was seen ringing the
door bell of the lady's mansion, having in
his hand a parcel containing a Roman
scarf 80 in change, and receipted bill

Lost on the Prairie.

a THOH STORY.
SOME years since, party of surveyors
had Just finished their days work in the
northwestern part of Illinois, when vio-
lent snow storm came on. They started
for their camp, which was in grove of
about eighty acres, in large prairie,
nearly twenty miles from any other tim
Der.
The wind was blowing very hard, and
the snow drifting So as to nearly blind
them. When they thought they mad near
ly reached their camp, they all at once
came upon tracks In the snow. These
they looked at with care, and found, to
their dismay, that they were their own
tracks.
TWAS now plain that they were lost on
the great prairie, and that, ii they had 60
pass the night there in the cold and the
snow, the chance was, that not one of
them would be alive in the morning.
While they were all shivering with fear
and with cold, the chief man of the party
caught sight Of one of their horses, a gray
pony, known as Old Jack"
Then the chief said, "lf any one can
show us our way to camp, out of this
binding snow, Old Jack can do it. will
take off his bride, and let him loose, and
we will follow him. think he will show
us the way to our camp.
The horse, as soon as he found himseR
free, threw his head and tail in the air, as
if proud of the trust that had been put in
him. Then he snuffed the breeze, and
gave loud snort, which seemed to say,
"Come on, boys. Follow me. I'll lead
you out of this scrape."
He then turned in a new direction, and
trotted along, but not so fast that the men
could not follow him. They had not gone
more than mile when they saw the cheer
full blaze of their camp fires. They all
gave a loud huzzah at the sight
They felt grateful to God for their safe.

The Roman council.

Little is made public concerning the
internal affairs of this body, but the
Rome correspondent of the London
Nel0S writes:
We are now informed that the Con-
gregation of the Council on the 18th
was occupied in discussing the duties
and affairs of Bishops, and that after
mass celebrated by the Archbishop
of Florence, the prelates received the
schedoe for the election, consequently
made, on this occasion, of members of
the fourth deputation, that, namely,
for Oriental Rites and missions; five
orators speaking in the course of the
debate, brought to a close at l P. NJ.
More important than these, the Off
cially published details, are others,
ascel tanned from sources thoroughly
trustworthy, as to what passed in the
,ouLa on the morning of Friday last.
fhe first thing after the usual devo-
tons was the reading by the Cardinal
President of a Communication from the
Pope to the effect that His Holiness
"as highly dissatisfied at the i'm
prudence of certain Bishops who
had not duly observed the
obligations of secrecy, and had dis
closed certain proceedings of the
