In the regular evening meeting
That the church holds, every week,
One night listening angel sat
To hear them pray and speak
1t puzzled the soul of the angel
Why some to that gathering came,
But sick and sinful hearts he saw,
- With grief and guilt afame.
They were silent but said to the angel.
While. doubt, with duh, vague, throbbing
stirred through their spirits dim
You could see twas the regular meeting,
And the regular seats were filed,
And all knew who would pray and talk,
Though any one might that willed.
From his place in front near the pulpit,
In his long-accustomed way.

Full fifty fathoms below
Then volume of information

Concerning His ways and attributes.
~ And the things by Him abhorred.
But not in the list of the latter
Vas mentioned the mockiDg breath
OF the hypocrite prayer that is not prayer,
And the make-belieye life in death. Hss
Then he prayed for the church; and the pas

And the swarming hordes of India;

And the pagan churches of Greece;
And the outeast remnants of Judah,

WHAT is a carat? The carat is an
imaginary weight that expresses the
fineness of gold, or the proportion of
pure gold in a. mass of metal (; thus,
an ounce of gold is divided into
twentysfour carats, and gold twenty
two,carats fine is gold of which twen-
ty-two parts out of twenty-four are
pure, the other two being silver, cop
per or other metals the weight of
four grains, used by jewellers in weigh
ing precious stones and pearls, is
sometimes called diamond weight
the carat consisting of four nominal
grains, little lighter than four grains
troy, seventy-four and one-sixteenth
carat grains being equal to seventy
two grains troy. The term or weight
carat derives its name from a bean, the
fruit of an Abyssinian tree, called
kuara. This bean, from the time of
its being gathered, varies very little
in its weight, and seems to have been,
from a very remote period, used as q
weight for goldin Africa. In India
also the bean is used as a weight for
gems and pearls.

According to official accounts, with
out reckoning the capitulation of

been published, the whole booty ta-
ken during the war amounted to l20
eagles, flags, and standards; 2,400
field-guns, more than 1000 fortress
guns, IL 1859 officers and 1863, 1926 men
were detained as prisoners of war in
Germany, besides whom the garrison
of Paris, 10000 men, surrendered to
the Germans, but were not brought
to this country. 1t must also be re-
membered that "a 600 French soldiers
were inferred in Switzerland, and
5000 in Belgium. In order to esti-
mate the importance of these figures
we may recall the fact that in the
campaign of 1865, exclusive of the re-
suits of the capitulation of the Han
overian army at Langensalva, 13 flags
and standards,1 208 gums, and about
