THE TEACHERS HELPRR.-Y Valuable
help IN the teachers work may doubtless
toe obtained from merely human sources,
but that which is most needed comes d.
reetly from above. Some one has well
said
1t is not so much to secure the right
action of the child, important as this may
be. as to secure the aim sghty. efieacrous
action 0 the Blessed SPIRIT, by which the
right action Of the child will be infalllbly
assured. On the very face Of 1t, this IS an
an unspeakabiy solemn business. 1t brings
the teacher into nearer, closer contact with
the Eternal SPIRIT, than with the child. La
dealing with the child, the teacher simply
presents truth, motives. and appeals, and
we know that this Is no good purpose IN
less the Holy Spirit Is present. and by the
secret omnip0tent lnsinuations of his grace.
the child The most serious and tremen-
dous truth wo can speak Is pnwerless for
salvation, apart from this divine eOopera-
ton. Paul may plant and Apollos may
water, but God alone gives the increase.
Taere IS thus absolute need of some
eztrinsic power TO make truth foreible,
eff iteious. renewing; and there Is no power
available TO this end. other than that of
Gods Eternal Spirit Accordingly. he
wao presents that truth must have power
with God, as well as power with hIsfellow
man to whom he presents It.

ENERGY oF WIIL.-1t Is energy Of viii
that is the soul of the intellect wherever
Il Is, there IS life where it is not. all is
lulInesS and dependency and deSolation
People who have no experience of it i'm
agJne that it is destructive to the animal
spirits that it aggravates the wear aud
tear OF life excessively. But TINS IS an
ldle notion, as idle as the habits and hui
mors Of those who entertain it. We leave
1t to any man who knows its real effect,
to strike the balance-to compare the ex-
haustion Of an indolent day with that of an
active one to say in which of the two
eases the subject is in better heart for work
and filter to undergo it.
Whatever it may be about. one thing,
We believe IS certain, that if the spirits are
spent By energy they are utterly wasted
by idIeness; at worst, energy can oaly end
N rclaxation-iti is superior to it io- a
while, and possibly at last may fall into
1t whereas, idleness is actual relaxation
from first to last, aud can be nothing else.
But even this view, favorable as it IS, yet
not favorable enough to be Just The fact
Is, that violence IS not necessary to energy
any more than tyranny is to kingship on
thc contrary, it is the greatest energy that
does the most work.
Energy literally from the Greek, means
inward-workingness the blooming Of the
flower is energy, the increase OF fruit Is
energy, the growth of the body IS energy
yet in all these there is no violence the
efficacy is not destructive, but vital: with
out it the whole frame must fall at once
into corruption, with it. instead OF corrup-
ton. we have life But this, It may be
said. IS refinement 1t may be so, but il
is true in fact, nevertheless. The gainsay-
er wiz find it difficult to produce anything
from the subject Of surer or more essential

ANCIENT LANDMARKs-By the side of
the road, about half mile below Felch-
Vile. and near a small brook. are two in
teresting and historical tombstones side by
side, on which are the following inscrip-
tions:
This is near the spot the Indians en-
camped the night after they took Mrs
Johnson and family, Nr. LarabeeT and
Farnsworth, August 30 l754 and Mrs,
johnson was delivered of her child half
mile up this brook.
When troubles near the Lord is kind,
He hears the captIye's cry
He can subdue the savage mlnG
And learns it sympathy
On the other and smaller stone IS the
following
"On the 31st Of August, 1754, Capt
James johnson had daughter born on
this spot of ground, being captivated with
his whole family by the Indians"
The Inscriptions on both stones are
much obscured by the hand of Time, and
on the larger one IS the f fgure of an IN
dian with bow aud arrow drawn. The
captjves afterwards made their escape,
and the child born under the above sta'ed
circumstances, was named $ Captive and

who knew her well. Mrs. Ives, who Is now
