sum, New York guzzled $246,917,52 /;
Pennsylvania 1852 ,653 ,495, and Illinois
$ll9,993,94 This is the direct cost of
a single year, in which poverty has been
general throughout the country in which
thousands of families have suffered for
the necessaries of life; in which large
numbers have died Of starvation and ex-
posure. Indirectly, the cost has been
immeasurably greater. II is summed up
in blighted hopes, saddened homes, ru-

The Festival of the Juggernaut.

The Calcutta correspondence of the
London Times, writing on the 3D. of
June, says: awe are in the midst of
the festival Of the bathing of the Jug
gernaut; his great day-Roh Jutra, or
the journey car-will be on the 20th.-
Fancy line of road about two miles in
length, lined from end to end with sellers
of fruit sweetmeats, baskets, fans, and all
manner of native productions; the fans
made from the ordinary palm leaf and
selling at little less than half penny
each. From 10000 to $4,000 people
the vast majority women-were on the
road trying to get as near as possible to
where the god was bathing. 1t is in
such scene as this that one is brought
face to face with the masses of the peo-
pie. And how docile they are. They
had come from great distances. Some
were unr@stakably foot sore and weary ;
very many were old, nearly worn out, and
possibly anxious for the last time to see
the god bathed. The faces Of the young
girls were less wearied looking, still IA
cos, not pretty in any case that I saw,
and very ugly in some, but with an cx-
preston that it was impossible to look
upon without pity"
Cannot these heathens teach us a les
son ? See how they exert themselves to
honor the requirements of their religion,
and how careless we are in the perform
ance of duties required by our God. II
we are to be judged according to our
knowledge, will not our condemnation be
greater than theirs

A Beautiful Parable.

a rich young man in Rome had been
suffering from severe illness, but at
length he was cured, and recovered his
health. Then he went for the first time
into the garden, and felt as if he was
newly born Full of joy, he praised God
aloud. He turned his face up to the
heavens and said {: go, Thou Almighty
Giver of all blessings, if human being
could in any way repay Thee, how will
lingly would give up all my wealth 7"
HeTmas, the shepherd, listened to these
words, and as he said to the rich young
man, "All good gifts come from above /;
thou canst not send anything thither.-
Come follow me-" The youth followed
the pious old man, and they came to a
dark hovel, where there was nothing but
misery and lamentation for the father
lay sick, and the mother wept, whilst the
children stood round crying for bread
Then the young man was shocked at the
scene of distress. But Herman said,
-" Behold here an altar for thy sacrifice !!
Behold here the brethren and representa-
tives of the Lord v' The rich young
man then opened his hands, and gave
freely and richly to them of his wealth,
and tended the sick man, and the poor
people, relieved and comfortcd blessed
him, and called him an angel of God
Hermas smiled and said, "Ever thus
turn thy grateful looks first to heaven
and then to earth" ....

ANCESTRAL WIsDoM.-ln Pennsylvania, not

Van Schreubendyke, who had cleared his own

the farm was transmitted in regular order from
father to son, and at last became the property
Of Heinrich Van S;hreubendyke, a good ma.
tured, stoid Ieuton whose son Johannes, q
bright and lively youth of sixteen years, was
told to saddle the horse and ride to the mill with
the grist, and hurry back. The grist was on
such occasions placedin one end of the bag and
a large stone in the other to balance il. JO-
names having thrown the sack across the
horses back, had got the griSt evenly divided,
and had no need of the stone to balance it. He
ran to his father and cried:
