MY UNCLE,S SHELL.
An Instructive story from the Ger.
man.

hhn
NV Uncle Bernard had large
shell upon his bureau. A shell with
pink lips is not common thing in
the forest of Hundsruck, a hundred
and fifty leagues from the sea. You
can imagine how admiringly we vii.
lage children looked at it. Every
time my uncle went out to make his
round of visits, we went into the
library to gaze upon the "American
snail-shcll," as our old servant Gre
del called it.
One day Uncle Bernard found us
there, ana began to laugh. He put
his hat upon the table, took the
shell in his hands, and seating him
self in an armchair, said:
"Listen to what is going on in
side"
We put our ears to the shell and
heard great noise-a murmur and
lamcntation, like the wind in the
depth of u wood. We looked at
each other in amazcmcnt.
"What do you think Of that ?"
asked my uncle; but nobody knew
what to say.
Then he said gravely:
"Children, this great humming
voice is the sound of the blood
which flows through your head,
your arms, your heart, and all your
limbs. In one place it flows like a
little spring, in another, like Il tor
rent, in. third, like great streams
and rivers, 1t bathes the whole in
side Of your body, that all may live,
from the ends of your hair to the
soles Of your feet.
"Now, 1 must explain one thing,
in order to make you understand
why you hear these noises in the
shell. You know the echo of the
"Hollow Rock" which sends you
back your shout when you shout,
your song when you sing, and the
sound OF your horn when you bring
your goats home from the noun
tain at night; well, this shell is an
echo like that ofthe Hollow Rock
--only, when you put your ear to
it, it sends you back the echo of
what is passing within yourself;
and these sounds resemble all the
noises of heaven and earth, because
each of us is little world in him
self. If any one could see a hun
dredth part Of the miracles which
are accomplished in his brain in II
single second in order tina. he might
live and think, and of which he
hears the echo in the shell, he
would fall on his knees and weep,
thanking God for His infinite good
ness.
"You will understand my words

Cure OF the Eyes.

When will those working by lamp
light have the sense to understand
the use of shades to protect the
eyes? We sec persons sitting hold
ing their sewing or other work be-
fore and near to II lamp, while the
light is blazing full into their eyes,
1t is plain that the object that they
work upon can not be seen with so
great distinctness while the field Of
their retina is already occupied by n
blaze. But they work on for hours,
and though the next moring their
visual organs tell of the abuse by
re1ness and inflammation, the work
ers too dull to learn the lesson OF ex
perience offered them. Circular pa.
per shades can be obtained for Il few
cents, aud those not only project
the eyes from the excess OF light, but
serve rs a reflector behind the bla2a,
increasing the illumination oue-half.
Besides The above mentioned,
there is that of the varying quantity
of light thrown into the eye by its
being suddenly and alternately
directed toward the blaze, or OBJ
l'quely directed away from it, by
which the pupil has no time to adapt
itself to the increase of glare ;
whereas with the use Of taa shade
the illumination would be uniform.
The number of persons in the COM
munity having spots, light or dark,
in their field OF vision, aud arising
from injury to the retina by the i'll
usages which we are mentioning, is
greater than is commonly imagined,
1t must be borno in mind that these
spots are a serious step toward am
aurOsi AID guttaserena, such as
plunged in darkness the latter years
of the great Milton, and many 9TH
ers more eminent for their talent
than their caution. Look well to
the preservation of your vision.

To tic Pcopic ofMc Unjtcd suites:
The October elections are over. They
enable us to form II tolcrabe accurate
idea of the true political situation Of
the country. In Georgia we have tore
count victory for the Liberal ticket so
unexampled as to take her ont of the
list of doubtful States aud practically
to pronounce in advance the decision
of Mt least 12j votes i'll the electoral col
lege. To this number it is only neces
sary to add 60 votes to elect Greeley
and Brown. In Pennsylvania the dis
tnguishcd chairman of the Liberal
committee has eloquently characterized
tho method by which the result of the
election there was accomplished. We
commend his statement to the thOught-
full attention of the country. In Ohio,
despite most unprecedented gains for
the Liberal Democratic ticket, the
Grant managers have carried the elec-
ton by reduced majority, having
brought to the polls their entire reserve
certail localities of that great commons
wealth shown the same earnestness and
activity, and enabled u3, like our enc
mics, to record our entire strength,
they would now be exalting over a
brilliant victory. In Indiana, the
Democratic and Liberal forces have
achieved n most important success on
the Pennsylvania tactics, most unscru-
pulously employed by theAdministration
and its allies, showing thus that n free
people. when aroused, know their rights
and dare maintain them. Indiana has
fully demonstrated that she can neither
be bought nor bullied. The moral OF
these results is, that the victory is still
in plain view for our national ticket,
and that energy and courage will assure
it. That victory must be won. If we |
mean to preserve free institutions on
this continent, wo must assure it. The
event in Pennsylvania ON Tuesday last,
when considered in its causes, is the
most appalling political catastrophe
that has ever taken place in this coun-
try. Should the system through which
this catastrophe was brought about be
condoned by the the people and foisted
on the other States, it seals the the
doom of freedom in America, A sad
contrast it is, surely. that the city in
which our republic was born, amid the
anthems Of free people, should now
be the first to toll the knell of ats liber-
ties. 1t is for the free unbought people

The African Fly.

One Of the most extraordinary
facts revealed to us by De- Living
stones explorations in Africa is that
the high table land of the interior,
with lis rich agricultural resources,
its noble flora, its fine temperature,
broad inland seas, and inexhaustible
stores of mineral wealth, is rendered
all but impcnetrablo to civilized
man, certainly beyond all reach of
colonization, by one Of the mostap-
parentIy insignificant of causes-a
fly. This terrible insect is II little,
brown, yellow.stripod fly, called the
tsetze, scarcely larger than our house

lutely fatal. SO dea llyis its poison

A Beautiful Incident.

! In my family there resides al old
man who has lived eighty-six years
He is q member of u Christian
Church, but for several year past he
has been so feeble, both IN body and
mind, that he has not gone away
from home, even to attend church.
His mind, once strong and vigorous,
has become broken, and no is at
present more like II child five or six
years old, than like vigorous man.
But he will sit down, take the Bible
and read whole chapters aloud. At
such time he seems to understand
not only what he is doing, but seems
to enjoy it greatly.
One evening after he had retired
for the night, he called in his daugh-
ter, seeming to imagine that she WAS
his mother.
Mother" said he, come hero by
my bed, and hear me say my prayers
before | go to sleep"
His daughter obeyed and stood by
his bed. Then the old man clasped
his hands with great reverence, and
repeated that child's beautiful even
ing prayer:
"Now lay me down to sleep,
Ipray the Lord my soul to keep:
pray the Lord my soul to take"
fl should die before wake.
He was apparently child again,
saying his prayers at his mother &
knees.

Gentle Words,

There is a magic power in gentle
words, the potency of which few
natures are so icy a. wholly to resist.
Would you have your home a cheer
full, hallowed spot, within which may
ever be found that happiness and
peace which the world dcnietb to its
votaries? Let no harsh word be
uttered within its walls. Speak
gently to the wearied husband, VIII },
with an anxious brow, returns from
the perplexities of his daily avoca-
tions, and let him, in his turn, speak
gently to the care worn woman, who,
amid her never ending round OF little
duties, finds rest and encourage.
ment in the sympathy Of him she
loves. Speak gently to the wayward
child a pleasant smile and word
of kindness will often restore good
humor and playfulness. Speak gently
to the dependent who lightens your
daily toll kind words insure respect
and affection, while the angry re-
buke proyokes imrertinence and
dislike, speak gently to the aged;
many are the trials through which
they have passed, and now little
while and they will be missed from
their accustomed place the spirit
will have passed to its rest. The re-
membrance of an unkind word will
then bring with bitter sting. Speak
gehly to the errring. one; are we
not all weak and liable to error?
Temptations. of which We cannot
Judge, may have surrounded him.
Harshness will drive him cn the
sinful way, gentleness and love may
win him back to virtue.
