A Good Test.

A few years ago, as Rev. Professor
Finney was holding series of meetings
in the city of Edinburgh, many persons
called upon him for personal conversa-
ton aud prayer.
One day a gentleman appeared In
great distress of mind. He had listened
to Mr.. Finney's sermon OH tho previous
evening, and 1t had torn away his
"refuge of lies" Mr.. Finney was plaiu
and faithful with him, pointing out to
him the way of life clearly, as his only
hope of salvation. The weeping man
assured him that he was willing to give
up all for Jesus--that he knew of noth.
ing he would rcserve--a!l for Jesus.
"Then let us 60 upon our knees and
tell God Of that" said Mr.. Finney. So
both knelt at the alter, and Mr.. Finney
prayed, 20 Lord, this man declares that
he IL prepared to take Thee A. 2,is God

Marvels Of Memory.

The following examples Of the mar
vels of memory would seem entirely
incredible had they not been given to us
upon the highest authority.
Cyrus knew the name Of each soldier
in his army. 1t is also related of Them
istocles that he could call by name every
citizen Of Athens, although the number
amounted to 10000. Mithridates. king
ofPsutus, knew sill his SO, 600 soldiers by
their right names. Scipio knew all the
inhaLitants of Rome. Seneca complain
ed Of old age because he could not, US
formerly, repeat 1000 names in the order
in which they were read to him; aud he
started that on one occasion, when at
his studies, 200 unconuected verses hav-
ing been recited by the different pupils
of his preceptor, lie repeated them in
reversed order, proceeding from the last
t. the first.
Lord Granville could repeat, from be-
ginning to end, the New Testament in
the original Greek. Cooke, the TRACE
dian, is said to have committed to
memory all the contents Of large daily
newspaper. Racine could recite all the
tragedies Of Euripides.
1t is said that George III. never forget
face lie had once seen, nor a name he
had ever heard. Mirandola would
commit to memory the contents Of u
book by reading 1t three times, and
could frequently repeat the words back.

mer committed to memory in three
months al entire translation Of the
Bible. Fuller, the mathematician.
could repeat the Encid; and Leibnitz,
when All cid man, could recite the whole
of Virgil, word tor word.
Mozart had q wonderful memory OF
musical sounds. When only fourteen
years of age he went to Rome to assist
in the solemnities Of Holy Week. I'm
mediately after his arrival he went to
the Sistins Chapel to hear the famous

heard it a second time, and following
the music with his own copy in hi'
hand, satisfied himself of the fidelity o
his memory. The next day he sung
the niserere at a concert, accompanying
himself on the harpsicllord, and thu
performance produced such a sensation
in Rome that Pope Clement XIV.
requested that this musical prodigy
should lie presented to him at once,-

Something about Fresh Air-What
We Breathe.

We have all heard Of the Black Hole
at Calcutta. 1t was . room eighteen
feet square. In this room one hundred
aud forty six psrsons were confined.
1t had but one window, and that small
one. Dungilson. in his elements of
Hygiene" says: "In less than an hour,
many Of the prisoners were attacked
with dinculty Of breathing, several were
delirious, and the place was filled with
incoherent rawlings, in which the cry
for water WAS predominant. This was
handed to them hy sentinels, but with.
out the effect Of allsying their thirst.
La less than four hours many were
suffocated, or died In violent delirium.
In five hours. the survivors, except
those at the crate, were frantic aud
outrageous. At length, most Of them
became i,lsensibls. Eleven hours, after
they were imprisoned, twenty. three
only of the ono hundred and forty six

The Professor in Shafts.

In the ffth chapter Of Rev. Elijah
KslIogg's college story, now In course Of
publication, appears the following droli
narrative:
A singular illustration Of the extent
to which theory often fails in practice
was furnished by venerated professor
- most distinguished mathematician,
whose works are still used IS text books
in many of our institu utions-and occur
red within the compass Of our own ex-
perience.
He went to Bethel; on his return, he
spent tho Sabbath at Lswiston. Mon
day morning he was told the horse wss
sick. Nevertheless, hs started. The
horse went few rods. fell down, and
broke both thills. He then sent his
wife homo, ard also sent to Brunswick
for another horse and carriage to take

tracted at the crawling Of . worm, fly.
ing of bat, or squeaking Of q mouse,
could see what they breathe at the mid.
night carousal, the very polite ball and
the bright theatre, they would never be
caught in such company again. Nay,
If they could see what they breathe in
their own dwellings. after the doors and
windows had been closed little while,
they would soon keep open houses. -
More sickness il caused by vitiated air

most prominent causes Of scrofula,
which Is but another name for half the
diseases that attack the human body.
1t vitiates and destroys the whole foun-
tain of life-the hlood.
In the sick room 1t often augments
the disease. or renders it incurable. II
the physician comes In and opebs the
window, or door stands ajar for mo.
ment, the good nurse, or the tender
mother, or the kind wife, or the loving
sister will fly up and close 1t, as though
the life Of the sick were at stake. All
this 10 well.meant kindness, but really
cruel. Ifyou would have health breathe
fresh air, throw open your windows ev.

leave off your mufflers from the chin.

never going out without handkerchief

Many students are injured by vitiated
air in their studies. These are small,
and when the doors aud windows are
closed. the atmosphere soon becomes
loaded with noxious vapors. The man
is intent upon his subject; he scarcely
knows whether he breathes or not,
much less does he think Of what he
brealhes. Many, also, are seriously in
jured by the manner Of heating their
studies. All closed stoves should be
avoided. The good old fashioned, open,
large chimney, with a fireplace suf1ic-
iently capacious to receive the wood
with but little chopping, is much pref.

Yet his face was pleasant and geniui.

generally dyspeptic air, which like a
nightmare often appears to prey upon
his class. Seeing the two Deacons he
extended both his hands, exclsiming:

stAe old rule held doubly good. Now. from

aut6n II my promise.
when ] write from the svamp we will

the readers of the STAR SO much.
Sut little of general interest has trans
ptred within my sphere since last wrote.
It except the foods Of the last month
%nich nave done SO much mischief to onr
con coast. 1 see your city has not been
spaTeo; IN fact we anticipated worse news
iron many quarters than has been received.
IN the swamp the storm of yesterday week
made things look serious enough for q time.
19e passed away without any vefy harm

ne Saecessary to abandon our camp at night
iar fear the towering old monarcbs of the
saeest standing around it might be blown
saewn upon us. For time it was fearful.
aseughs and trees were crashing down ON
every side, while the wind went bowling
gys driving the clouds rs though the fnries
were loose upon them.
Moch damage has been done to the
growing crops, especially the corn, which
as cut short fully one-half. This is indeed
10 % regretted, as our people at best never
make enough for their own use. Cotton |
and cane, too, have suffered very materially. |
Ihe fine prospect for fruit has also been
z.restly Injured.
Our quiet little burg has been somewhat
dTonbled recently by the number of bur
saar1es and attempts at robbery so common

among che places visited recently was the
convent: The thief was fortunately dis
covered in time to prevent his carrying off
anything from the house, though he had
penetrated into the sleeping apartment of
the Sisters before he Wa, heard. A mem

Last Sunday our good pastor. Father

at which the faithful were reouested tn

BRUSH Parliament had devoted in recent
years much time and attention to Irish af-
fairs, ne pointedty replied that the Irish
people had not asked that Parliament to
take charge of their affairs, and never
would ask it; and he hit off Mr.. Dowse in
an admirable manner when he described
him as ga talented person who had rather

In short, he gained q complete intellectual
victory. Rut he failed, Of course, to check
the progress of the Bill, which, after a
lew remarks from Messrs. Henley and
Connolly in condemnation of the Govern
men for not having pushed the measure
more speedily through the House, was or
iered to be committed by I52 votes to Z,
