.Co-operatiye,, Christianity

Opposition to Christianity seems to be the
foundation stone Of communism in France: at
any rate, communism and infidelity 90 hand in
hand. In this country, where religious conyic.
tons are stronger, socialists aim at reformation
through the church, and not outside of il.
Hence it is that in New York we have an effort
by number of persons of various beliefs to
establish socialism on a basis of religion. The
point on which they agree is that Christianity
can never fully perform its mission until the
majority of Christians associate intimately in all
the relations of life, dwelling in cooperative
homes, and labOring together in cooperative
farming, manufacturing, and commercial pur-
suits; in short, bearing each others physical as
well spiritual burdens At the meeting of
the conference of this " Church of the Future, -
last Sunday, the special subject of discussion
was " Cooperative homes and labor as a means
Of realizing the hitherto impossible) Christian
life" This movement is interesting mainly be-
cause il is one of the signs of the times-an
American phase Of the demand for social reform
which is agitating the civilized world. The con-
ference is composed mainly of socialists of
various schools, who shave learned by bitter ex-
perience that integral co-operation-that which
aims at the complete UnilicatiOn OF household as
well a. business life-cannot be made a success
except by those who entertain strong religious
convictions in common" In proof of this state
ment the fact is presented that while the efforts
OF many OF the most brilliant minds OF ciyiIiza-
ton to carry out sOciaIistic schemes have all
failed when not put on a religious basis. many
iliiterate religious communities have prospered.

To CURE WOUNDS. -Housekeepers,

tools and other sharp instruments, very
frequently receive severe cuts, from which
blood flows profusely, and oftentimes en-
dangers life itself Blood may be made
to cease to flow as follows: Take the
fine dust of tea and bind it closely to
the wound-at all times accessible and
easy to be obtained. After the blood
has ceased to flow, laudanum may be ad-
vantageously applied to the wound.
Due regard to these instructions would
save agitation of mind and running for
the surgeon, who would, probably make
no better prescription if he was present.

A LUDIcRoUs PANIc.-One of the
peers of England lately made himself
very seriously and needlessly wretched
about the fidelity of his wife, though
there was some excuse for his doing so.
During the army bill debate, the lady's
noble husband, who is as proud and
fond of her as he should be, was just
about to arise and deliver a violent at
tack upon something or somebody, when
telegram was put into his hands. He
read it, turned pale and quilted the
house, called cab, drove to the Char
ing Cross station, and went to Dover,
and was no more heard of until the next
day, when he returned to his onw home,
and to his first inquiry was told that the
countess was in her own room. He
fastened to her, and a terrific row en-
sued, the exact words of which no one
knows but themselves. AT last, howev-
er, he burst out, "Then what did you
mean by your telegram" "Mean ?
What | said, of course. What are you
talking about?" "Read it for yourself"
returned the still unappeased husband,
She did read IL flee with Mr.-to
Dover straight. Pray for me-" For
moment she was startled, but then burst
into a hearty fit of laughter. "Most
dreadful telegraph people. No wonder
you are out of your mind. | telegraph
ed simply, 81 tea with Mrs, in Do
yer street. Stay for me-" His lordship
was so savage at the laugh he had rails
ed against himself, that he was at first
inclined to make parliamentary ques-
ton of it, but, listening to more judi.
cious advice, refrained. London Court

A STORY OF LINCoLN.-The WASH

Mr.. Lincoln's maiden efforts at review
ing troops, which occurred in Camp Cam

troops to be reviewed comprised the "a
nous old Seventh Regiment of New
York city, which had just then gone in
to camp. Says the Capital: "Mr.
Lincoln was accompanied by VIM. Fl.
Seward and many others of his Cabinet.
After a number of movements which APP
peared to interest the President very
much, the order was given. Lett OBJ

looked astonished at their (to him) odd
movement. Touching Mr.. Seward on
the shoulder, he said, Bill, do you see
the boys marching edgeways?' Bill
