Archer, in London, there was a gather
ing of friends and among them DIR. Har-
ris, author of "Mammon," and DIR. Philip,
of Haberly Chapel, author of 1.-The
Marthas, 1.-THE Marys," etc. In the
course of the conversation the question was
mooted, which was the most amiable OF
the two sisters Of Bethany, Mary or Mar
tina? DIR. Archer replied:
81 prefer Martha for the unselfishness
of her character, in being more ready tc
provide for the comfort of her Lord than
crafty herself"
''Pray," rejoined DIR. Harris, address
ing DIR. Philip, ''what is your view
Which of the two do you think would
have made the best wife?'
"Well, really" replied the goood man,
''Pm at a loss; though | dare say, were
| making the choice for myself, should
prefer Mary"
DIR. Archer, turning to DIR. Harris,
said smartly, pray, DIR. Harris, which
of the two should you PREFER"

Beautiful Chemical Experiment.

The following beautiful chemical ex-
pertinent may easily be performed by a
lady, to the great astonishment of circle
at her tea-party. Take two or three leaves
of red cabbage; cut them into small bits,
put them into a basin, and pour pint of
boiling water on them; let it stand an
hour, then pour off the liquor into de-
canter. 1t will be of fine blue color.
Then take four wine glasses; into one put
six drops of strong vinegar, into another
six drops of solution of soda; into a
third the same quantity of strong solu-
ton of alum, and let the fourth glass re-
main empty. The glasses may be pre-
pared some time before, and the'few drops
of colorless liquids which have been placed
in them will not be noticed. Fill up the
glasses from the decanter, and the liquid
poured into the glass containing the acid
will quickly become beautiful red, that
in the glass containing the soda viii be a

tanning the alum viii be purple, whilst
that poured into the empty one viii re-

THE MISSISSIPPI.


Oh. mighty riveri rolling onward grandly,
To meet thy destiny in boundless seas:
Toss'd by the thunderous gale, or flowing
blandly
To the soft music of the Southern beeze
How did | deem thee, in my far-of child
hood.
Half-truth, half-myth, yet wondrous in
thy strength;
l seem'd to see thee through tangled wild
wood.
AS coils along the serpent's glitterine
9Th -
A winding glory through the foliage rare
Which scattered gorgeous treasures every
where.
Far from the sight, in olden forests sleeping,
dream'd of thee as of some monster vast
Or of some Weakening giant msdly sweep
Ing,
Away, away ! from chimes Of boreal blast
And now l see thee-mighty in thy sorrow.
Made to seccumb to cunning arts of men
Nor canst though hope that any bright to-
win give thee all thy freedoms might
BafeiSrestrain'd-th edict has gone forth,
That thou no more shalt oversweep the
earth.
And better SO. What thou hast lost in won
ders
Is well repaid by the sublime control.
Which Art has gain'd oft hee by toiling thun-
ders.
That tell the power of the immortal soul
Oh in these latter days, along thy borders
What glorious men have lived, and loved
and died?
Men who like heroes kept their country's
orders,
And fell asleep about thy noble tide;
A nd the great glory OF the names they bore
Lies cleaning on the breast for eveTmore!
And here, majestic stream thy mighty vol
ume
Grows mightier as it nears thy trysting
place,
Where the Ohio sends its loyal column
Like a gay lover--to thy fond embrace;
Sweet must it be to thee. oh sire OF waters
To have this radiant charmer with thee
stay,
One of the fairest of earth's river daughters
Winding into fly heart her silver way;
If man is blest when woman comes along
Thou, too, shalt wake for joy triumphant
song!
Go on, go on. ye rivers brightly blending
Whom Gods mysterious wisdom guides
and fills;
Into the ancient floods your waters sending
A tribute and ID trophy from the hills.
Far in the depth of thickets on thy borders
How sweet to pass the hours in solemn
thought,
Free from all cares and pains, those life
marauders,
And looking heavenward, feeling earth is
naught:
In thrilling silence and sublime despair.
