History ]. :nll of instances showing con-
c!usiveiy that nations ma decline; pas-
sion or habit may become natural in the
universally Of its application, and If that
passion or habit 10 within itaelf an evil, or
rom abuse, or excessive use, liable to be-
come 90, and is SO deeply planted into tho
very ground-works of the rational charac-
yer, as not to be capable of o separation
from II, then the decline and downfall is
certain and inevitable. To inculcate q
moral and engraft it upon the national
neart, taste for it must be cultivated.
scion encouraged simplicity in all things
among the Spartans, and they We'd with
eacn other in seeing who could appear the
most simple. This gives time and means
for improvement in things more substantial
and useful, and at the same time cuts off
and completely destroys the poisonous
spring that waters and keeps alive every
noxlous and vicious plant growing upon
the national soil. Neither national nor
individual wealth are we disposed to con-
denim, for each. in its place, is desirable.
National wealth affords the "sincws Of
war;" which would be myth without in-
dividual prosperity. Wealth affords the
greatest means of doing good, and, there
fore. werwouid gladly sec all good people
wealthy. But the tendency to defy
money, and worship it us the thing par
excellence, to be adored above all else, is
the spirit and the tendency that is calcu-
lated to excite our gravest apprehensions,
and which demands the most serious con-
sideration from the wise and patriotic
everywhere.

enty-two books, by nearly forty different
authors, the first of whom preceded the last by
at least fifteen centuries. These writers wide
ly separated from each other by time, place and
condition some reared in the palaces of kings
others in q court of temple, others in the cabin
of a shepherd or fisherman. These seventy
two books contain 3566,4s9 letters. 1910
verses s o 1889 chaPteEs the word "ands occurs
once. The 21st verse of the 9TH chapter Of
Ezra contains the alphabet. The 10th chapter
of the 4th Kings and the 37th chapter of
buried in coffin was Joseph, in the 5th chap
ter of Genesis, 26th verse. Nowhere but in the
LIST chapter of I'd Timothy is the word "Grand-
mother" mentioned.

SHOPPING IN JAPAN.-In biandness of
manner, the Japanese merchant cannot be
surpassed. Seated on q neat mat-covered
floor, elevated say two feet above the level
of the street, his heels for q chair, and at
tired in a calico gown with flowing sleeves,
he salutes his customer with persuasive
voice, "O-hi-a9" which might be consider
ed Synonymous with, "How are you Z"
To learn the price of an article, you say,
"I-korah 7" chow much"
Invariably, an exorbitant figure is named
which if you have been initiated by some
thoughtful friend, will be replied to with
feigned astonishment. The merchant at
once responds:
elbow much will you give Z"
One half the price asked will be reason
able offer, by way of compromise.
A profound consultation then takes place
among tt Q several traders interested, all Of
whom, by this time, will have emptied
their pipes and risen, some one of their
number meanwhile snuffling on wires the
little balls of calculating machine.
If your offer is accepted, several mods of
the head and simultaneous clapping of
the hands signify consent. If rejected,
make no more than tridiDg concession,
for if by any chance you are permitted to
leave the store without bargain, mes
senger will probably be dispatched in hot
pursuit, "Can do !" A porter is at once in
structed to deliver the goods.

A letter from Paris says the report of NJ.
De Lesseps on the present condition OF the
Suez Canal states that all work on the canal
has been completed, and that there is a
minimum depth throughout of twenty six
feet two inches. Steamers of twenty five
hundred tons pass without difficulty. The
Nebraska, an American steamer of three
thousand tons, went through, and other
vessels of large size followed. The station
OF hating place of Timsah Lake was
finished on the goth of October. This
gives an internal port for ships to halt in
of about fifty acres superices, and twenty
six feet two inches deep. steamer of
Messageries Franchise, of 1891 tons, passed
from one sea to another in thirteen hours
and forty eight minutes of actual steam
ing, and an Italian packet went through in
twelve hours and forty five minutes. This
would be at an average rate of about eight
miles an hour. These passages have de-
stroyed all apprehension, and the greatest
merchant vessels have been freighted to
90 to Asia through the canal. One ship
owner, who had twenty vessels ahoat,
making use of the Suez Canal, has aug
mented his feet by Eve new vessels OF tue
largest tonnage. Another ship-owner, who
used to send four vessels month, is about
to double his fleet. "A company is about to
be formed to join Denmark aud China by
the canal. The Austrian Government has
established regular line between Trieste
and India. Italy ID gong 10 increase tue
steam line between Genoa and India, and
eome new companies are about to increase
the Italian traffic in Asiatic seas. The
Russian line between Odessa and the far
East is going definitely to resume its
voyages. Spain is In constant communica-
ton with the Philippine Islands by mer-
chant feet carrying the Spanish flag. In

receipts shall reach rs COS, 900 francs the
shareholders will receiFe q dividend Of five

The Cleveland Leader mentions the in
vention in that city of machine called
the Patent Cat Exterminator. This is de-
scribed as a large sheet iron cat with cylin-
drical attachment and steel claws apd
teeth. The motive power is like that of
clock; the tale is swelled by bellows in
the interior, which also, by tremolo at
tacbment, causes the patent cat to utter
wild cries of defiance. The machine being
duly wound up is placed upon the roof OF
the house. Reused by its diabolical yells,.

extreme A woman whose social positlon

this high minded and noble-hearted lady,
sented herself, her daughter, and her in
FAINT grandchild to receive from the Catho-
lie Church, not earthly hopors, nor vain
Joys, but that mysterious sign of salvation
on her brow, which neither time nor death
can efface, and which in eternity will rank
her among those who have received "the
seal OF the Living God" 1t was impos-
sible to view without emotion three gener-
atoms at the gate of the Sanctuary asking
admission to the Church of God. The
grandmother. whose fine countenance be-
spoke that peace which the world cannot
give, her daughter in the tender years OF
childhood, and the helpless infant, too

deep devotion responding to the various
interrogations of the ritual, especially
whom asked, What dost thou demand OF

spouse, Faith!" recalled at once the
sweet words of the poet, written on q SINH
lar occasion:
Give me faith! that faith which thro long ages,
Hath given saints sud martyr. unto God

POETRY.
Eureka.
BY OLIVER w. HOLMES.

Whom crown with love is royal;
Matters not her blood or birth;
She is queen, and am loyal
To the noblest of the earth.
Neither place, nor wealth. nor title,
Lacks The man my friendship OWNS
u;o distinction, true and vital,
Shines supreme DER crowns and thrones.
Where true love bestows its sweetness,
Where true friendship lays its hand,
Dwells all greatness, all completeness,
All the veal tn of every land.
Man is greater than condition,
And where man himself bestows,
He begets, and gives position
To the gentlest that he knows.
Neither miracle nor fable
is the water changed to wine,
Lords and ladies at my table
Prove Loves simplest fare divine.
And if these accept my duty,
1t the loved my homage own,
Ihave won all worth and beauty:
/ have found the magic stone.
