The Sin of Borrowing. Trouble.

Such habit of mind and heart is
wrong, because it puts one into des-
pondency that i'll fits him for duty. 1
planted two rose-bushes in my garden
the one thrived beautifully, the other
persisted. found the dead one on the
shady side of the house. Our DISPOSE
tions, like our plants, need sunshine.
Expectancy of repulse is the cause of
many secular and religious failures. Fear
of bankruptcy has uptorn many a fine
business, and sent the man lodging
among the note shavers. Fear of SLAM
der and abuse has often invited all the
long-beaked vultures of back biting.
s. Many of the misfortunes of life, like
hyenas, flee if you courageously meet
them. How poorly prepared for relig-
ious duty is a man who sits down under
the gloom of expected misfortune. If he
prays, he says, "I do not think 1 snall
be answered" If he give, he says, "I
expect they will steal the money" Helen
Chalmers told me that her father, Tho
mas Chalmers, in the darkest hour of the
history of the Free Church of Scotland,
and when the woes of the land seemed
to weigh upon his heart, said to his chill
uion' Oome, iet US Bo ouo auu piay Udll
or fly kite" and the only difficulty in the
play was that the children could not
keep up with their father. The Nc
Cheynes and the Summerfelds of the
Church who did the most good, cult
waited sunlight. Away with the hor-
rors They distil poison; they dig
graves; and if they could climb so high,
they would drown the rejoicings of hea-
ven with sobs and wailing,-De Witt

tlemen 2" asked Tommy's "hired hand" !"
as the bell rang for dinner.
"No, father" replied Tommy, with
his first giggle, they board themselves.
I've paid them off already. Jim gifts my
new patent skates, and Charlie, my old
soldier overcoat. If l make we'll on
these cabbage, 1 can buy something
better next winter"
Mr.. Deliver turned pale, and ventured
no further remark.
Fall came, and Tommy marketed his
crop, which had done quite well. II
brought him 5000. His father borrowed
the money and put another sl00 with
it, as free gift, giving him ten per cent.
on the whole. This was pretty
good summers work for a boy seven
teen years old, and Tommy felt very
proud of it-rather prouder than he
ought to, I'm afraid.
They say the story writer must in
variably conclude narrative pleasant
ly, in order to make good impression.
But we can't do this. Tommy got badly
mixed up as the years rolled away.
What with the stock, the farm crops,
the rebuilding, the repainting, and reg
ular journeys to little white cottage q
mile awsy--the residence of nice young
lady-Tommy became hopelessly in-
volved.
This, then, is the reason "why Tommy
didn't CO."

LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT.

Inc racing river leaped, and sang
Euii Dllthely In the perfect weather,
All rou Id the mountain echoes rang,
tor blue and green were glad together
This rained out light from every part,
and that with songs OF Joy was thrilling;
but In tue hollsw of my heart,
There ached place that wanted filling.
Before the road and river met,
And stepping stones are wet and glisten,
l heard a sound of laughter sweet,
And paused to like 1t and to listen.
| heard the chanting waters flow,
The cushat's note, the bees low humming-
Then turned the hedge and did not know
How could lp-that my time was coming.
A girl upon the highest stone,
Halfdoubtful of the deed, was standing,
So far the shallow flood had flown
Beyond the 'customed leap of landing.
She knew not any need OF me,
Yet me she waited all unweeting;
She thought not had crossed the sea.
And half the spheres to give her meeting.
l waded out, her eyes l met,
wished the moment had been hours;
| took her in my arms, and set
Her dainty feet among the flowers,
Her fellow-maids in copse and lane,
All! still methinks hear them calling;
The winds soft whisper in the plain,
The cushat's co., the waters falling.
But now it is year ago,
And now possession crowns endeavor;
| took her In my heart to grow
And fill the hollow place forever.

New Tanning Material.

A citizen of Vermont has made dis
covery in tanning leather, which he
claims will revolutionize the business.
The material he uses is dye from forest
leaves. He has been experimenting
with leaves for the past two months,
and the result is said to be entirely sat-
isfactory. One ton of leaves will tan as
much leather as five cords of hemlock
bark, and will do the work in one-half
the time. By mixing the leaves and
bark in equal proportions, one-fourth OF
the time is saved. The leather tanned
by this process is smoother, more fexi-
BILE, and yet retains the strength of the
raw hide in a greater degree than that
landed by bark.

The Old Colony Railroad in Massa-
chusetts in 1868 gave free pass to all
who would build houses in the village
of Wollaston Heights. The result has
been that the paying passengers from
that station to and from Boston are
more than ten times as many now as
three years ago.

A Chicago boot-black recently ap-
peared in Detroit and bought 5000
lot, for which he paid in fractional cur
rency, mainly of the denomination of
ten cents, and which it took three hours
to count. He is only eleven years old,
and says he made this money in boot
backing in three years.

For the first time in the history of
Massachusetts, a German has been
elected member of the House of Rep
resentatives. They have had English
men, Irishmen, and Scotchmen, but Mr..
Bartholemez. from Boston, is the first
German elevated to legislative honors.

1t was 10 o'clock. Mr.. and Mrs. Del
yer had retired an hour ago. But there
was fire in the stove, and the coffee
pot on the back part of the same rocked
to and fro in state of much agitation.
The oven door was ajar, and we discov-
er inside plate of sausage, some fried
potatoes, and half mince pie. We
know its rlince, for we can smell it. A
lamp half turned down, stands on the
little pine table just back of cup and
saucer, clean plate, knife and one
fork. Reader, there is no use denying
the fact that room was expecting COM
pany.
1t didn't have long to wait. A quick
step on the plank which led from the
gate to the house, vigorous scraping of
feet on the stone steps, and the abrupt
entrance Of the visitor-Tommy himself.
There was nothing peculiar in the ap-
pearance OF this young gentleman ex-
eepting his appetite. That found the To-
cation of the sausage, potatoes, and
mince pie in a twinkling, and in anoth-
er twinkling they were upon the table
by the side of the coffee-pot, which had
got there in some mysterious manner we
wot not of. OF course he had on an
overcoat and hat, but they were not at
all in the way, and 80 he sat down with
out further psrley. In 10 minutes time
the mince pie had vanished; also the po-
tatoes, also the sausage. There was
nothing left but coffee. 80 he replen-
ished bis cup, leaned back in his chair,
and glanced languidly around the room.
He didn't glance long-he looked. No
wonder, either; for there, suspended by
a string from the ceiling, was letter.
Tommy rubbed his eyes, and at last, con-
vinced that he was awake, rose to his feet,
clipped the cord, glanced at the super
scription, and found it was addressed to
himself. He scratched his head in be-
wildered manner, and glanced in the di-
rection of the lamp. Overjoyed to find
it turned down, he made the matter worse
by producing blaze which blackened
the chimney in moment. But he grad
ually got the wick in the proper position
and finding himself by this time relieved
OF any undue excitement broke open the

$40 bill. The next thing he found was
the letter itself. 1t ran thus:

The California Elections.

The first Of the Fall elections takes place
to-day. In California, Governor, three Con-
gressmen and State Legislature are to be
chosen. This Legislature will elect United
States Senator in place OF Senator Cole, a Re-
publican. The people are also 10 vote on a
proposition to refund lhe State debt OF per
cent. interest, and on on amendment to the
constitution prohibiting the State Leglsla-
ture from aprropriati0g money for any pur-
pose whatever for longer period than two
years. The present Democratic Governor,
H. e. Haiyht, dominated for re-election,)
was chosen in 1867 by about 1900 majority.
In 1865 the State gave Grant, for President,
a majority OF 5l4. In 1869, at an election
for Judges, the Democratic majority was
$50. Newton Booth is the Radical candi-
date for Governor. The members of Con-
gress in nomination are, in the First Dis
trict, Lawrence Archer, Democrat, and S.
o. Houghton, Republican-the Democratic
majority at the last election having been
about $500; in the Second District, J. w.
CofTroth, Democrat, and A. A. Sargent, Re-
publican-the Republican majority at the
last election having been about 5000; and in
the Third District, George Pearce, Democrat,
and John NJ. Coghlan, Republican-the
Democratic majority at the last election
having been 264.
The Territory Of Wyoming elects members
OF the Legislature today. The last Legis-
la,ure, elected in 1869, was unanimously
Democratic; but at the election OF a Con-
gressional delegate in 1870 the Republicans
carried the Territory by 227 majority.

The Progressive Democraey-sena'of
Dooltttle's Great Speech.

We print to-day the great speech OF ez-
Senator Dooittle accepting the Democratic
nomination for Governor of Wisconsin. The
former connection Of Senator Doolittle with
the Republican party, from which he was
driven By its aagrant violations OF the Con-
stitution, give to his words an especial sig
niticance, and we take it as good omen
that the Wisconsin Democracy have chosen
! az their leader man who is no more IN
sympathy with Radical GENERALIZATION than
with that wrong -headedness which refuses
frank recognition OF he accomplished re-
suits OF the war;
Senator Doolittle does not state correctly
the causes of the war between the States,
nor the objects OF the Southern people in
resisting, by force ofarms, the expressions OF
the Radical party; but he describes and de-
nounces the bad faith and usurpation, on the
part of the Radical msjorlty in Congress,
which eliminated in "a reconstruction OF
ethe Constitution" But the Fourteenth
and Fifteenth amendments, proclaimed
'saud adopted, under all the forms OF law, q
"part of the Constitution Of the United
''States," are accepted, and acted upon, by
every department Of the government, and
are, periorce, obeyed by the people These
amendments cannot be disregarded, and
they cannotAfor years to come, if erer-be
set aside without civil war. This means OF
redress the Democracy have no thought OF
seeking.
But there are live issues which occupy
the attention OF the Democratic party,
upon which all its members can agree. The
main question, to be decided next year, is
whether this country shall be Union OF
States, under the Constitution, or become
centralized despolism. Wemusu arrest the
progress OF revolution. And this can only
be done by restoring to The States their con-
stitutonal control over their own affairs. and
by limiting the General Government to the
carefully defined duties entrusted to it by the
Constitution. Other questions relating to
finances, the national debt, the tariff and
internal revenue reform, also press for solu-
tion; but the chief duty Of the Democratic
party is to fight against consolidation and
Capitalization, under the banner Of the Con-
stitutlon.
Senator Doolittle, in his speech, goes over
the whole ground, and in conclusion, in
vIles al wuU iU,e repuunCau nusInutiOns W
join in restoring to prestige and power 'the
"old Democratic Republican party OF Jefier-
"son, of Madison and Of Jackson"
