In a deserted shop in Pittsfeld,
Massachusetts, there rests on its
block an anvil that has done duty
for more than three hundred
years. 1t is as sound to day as i,
was when in 1888, when Eltweed
Pomeroy, aficr welding TOR the
Stuarts the poundcrcus horseshocs
of tho same style and pattern THAI
his ancestors had made during
generations for tho Tudora and
Plantagenets. grew weary of taxes
without wages, and anvil in hand
sailed for the new world. A def;
workman, he tlrovc in tho settle
mcnts, and left his anvil as an
heirloom to his dcscendanis.-
They shcw you in the Tower OF
London the anvil on which the
sword was forged Richard C@uy
de Lion used in his contest with
Saladin, and at Tho collection OF
Pompeian excavations in Naples
there is an anvil, certainly older
han the Christian centuries,
which, Of precisely the sam e
shape we use, had certainly done
service for stalwart worknen OF
many generations before the cit"
was buried. But better still. III
the Egyptian room of the Brit
ish Museum, there is vcritablr
anvil of the Pharaohs. II lf
older than Rome, Older ,,tha,
Greece, older than Jerusalem as
old as the days of Abraham, and
probably in existence when the
patriarch, "was come into Egypt
ana the Egyptians beheld Sara
that she was very fair" 1t i.
just like modern anvil, made ap
parently in tho same way, weigh
ing about seycnty-ive pounds
and sound as it was when frs
struck by the hammer thirty cen
tnries ago.

Spurgcon Preaching TO Twenty Thou
sand Persons.

The London correspondent of the
Boston advertiser says:
81 once heard Mr.. SpurgeOn preach
in the Crystal Palace to twenty thOus-
andpersons. Whichever way you look
ed you saw u mass of human beings.
His wife sat Immediately below his
pulpit. She grew frightened and began
to shed tears. Mr. Spurgeon observed
her, and calling some one to him, sent
message asking her to sit where she
could not look at him, and after she
had moved, her nervousness passed
away. So little did he exert himself
that could not believe the people at
the rim of the circle could hear, but
was wrong.
"When the doxOlogy after the SER
mon had been sung, the great Bap-
tist preacher, with the familiarity
which seems to bc allowed to particu-
lar men, said: NO, no; that will not
do. Not half of yor sung then. Let
us have the words again, and let
every one join. Mr.. Organist, please
play the verse once more.' The organ
was at the extreme end, scarcely in
sight. The organist looked like n
black dot. But he heard the little
stout man in the pulpit, and turning
to the keys sent forth glorious vol.
ume of music. And the people heard
as well; the five thousand singers be-
came twenty thousand. 1t was won
derful to find those enormous regi-
mcnts of singers suddenly joining the
rest.'

Tie CRUST OF TIE EARTm.-If we
bury a thermometer fifty feet below
the surface of the Garth the mercury
will remain at the same point the
year round, in winter and in sum-
mcr, showing that the influence of
the sun does not reach below that
depth. If we carry the thermometer
fifty feet lower, the mercury will rise
ono degree, and will rise in the same
ratio for every fifty feet we 90 down.
1t can be easily calculated at what
depth all known substancs will melt.
This would not exceed fifty miles. 1t
will thus be seen that the crust-or
solid part-Of the earth is exceed
ingly thin, in proportion to the di.
amctcr; not so thick as an egg shell.
in proportion to the size of the
egg. With a crust so thick, con-
stantly cooling, and producing a
pressure upon the internal mass
cs, it is not strange that the bed
of the ocean should be elevated i'm n
single day, and whole cities have
been sunk in the same space of time.
The side of a volcanic mountain
once broke away, and the living
masses flowed out forming river
twelve miles wide, which, in lis
course melted down six hills 600
feet high, filling up valleys 600 feet
deep, and spreading over surface
HOO square miles.

VEIL ON THE IlEART.-Onc of the
saddcst conditions of human crca-
turc is to read Gods Word with a
veil upon the heart; TO pass blind
folded through all the wOndrOus tcs-
timonics of rcdccming love and
grace which the Holy Scriptures
contain. And it is sad, if not actu-
ally ccnsurablc, TO pass blindfol''cd
through the works of God; to live
in a world of flowers, and stars, and
sunsets, and thousand glorious OBJ
jccts of nature, and never to have q
passing interest awakened BY any ono
of them. It's prcccpt of the Divine
Master, occurring on the mount, and
therefore obligatory upon all His
disciples, that VIC should consider
the lilies of the field" If Christians
qualified themselves more for on in
tcrcst in nature by that which is cs-
scntial TO such interest, Il slight
knowledge of nature, there would be
among them much more purity, and
therefore much more brightness and
ioyousncss of mind Gouljun.
