WHEN

II were told that must die tomorrow,
That the next sun
Which sinks should bear me past all fear and
sorrow
For any one.
All the fight fought, and all the short journey
through
What should 1 dop
I dc, not think that should shrink or falter,
But just 60 on,
Doing my work, nor change nor seek to alter
Aught that is gone;
But rise and move aud love and smile. and pray
Fee one more day.
And, lying down at night for a last sleeping,
Say in that ear
Which hearkens ever, Lord within thy keeping
How should fear ?
And when tomorrow brings thee nearer still,
Do thou thy will
might not sleep, for awe; but peaceful, tender,
My soul would lie
All night long; and, when the morning splendor
Flashed ore the sky,
think that / could smile, could calmly say,
1T is his day."
But if wonderous hand from the blue yondcr
Held out scroll,
On which my life was writ, and l with wonder
Beheld unroll
To long century end its mystic clew,
What should do
What could do, o blessed Guide and Master
Other than this
Still to 90 on as now, not slower, faster,
Nor fear to miss
The road although so very long it be,
While led by thee
Step by step, feeling thee close beside me.
Although unseen;
Though thorns, though flowers, whether the tenn
pest hide thee,
Or Heavens serene
Assured thy faithfulness cannot betray,
Thy love decay.
may not know, my God, no hand revealeth
Thy counsels wise:
Along the path no deepening shadow stealeth,
No voice replies
To all my questioning thought, the time to tell,
And it is all well.
Let me keep on, abiding and unfearing
Thy will always.
Through long century's ripening fruition,
Or short days.
Thou canst not come too soon, and can wait
If thou come late.

TIE Rich MANS ENTRANCE DooR.-That
passage from the New Testament which reads
"It is easier for camel" etc., is familiar to
all readers, and has perplexed many good
men who have read it literally. Yet the ex-
PLANTATION of it's precise meaning is very
simple. In Oriental cities there are in the
large gates small and very low apertures,
called metaphorically "needles eyes," just
as we talk of windows on ship-board as
"bulls' eyes," These entrances are to mar
row for camel to pass through in the ordi,
nary manner even if unloaded. When a
loaded camel has to pass through one Of
these entrances it kneels down, its load is re-
moved and then it shuflea through on its
knees; he must kneel and bow bis head tc
go through the "eye Of needle" that il
the low arched door of an inclosure; and
thus the rich man must humble himself
when he enters the gates of heaven.

BER1AH BRowN's OPINION OF GREELEY
We knew Horace Greeley intimately in oul
early boyhood, and though we have differed
from him politically throughout our life, we
have never failed to bear testimony to bis
prominent traits of character which ennobled
our common humanity. A more devoted
man to his kindred and friends, more gen.
erous man to his enemies, God never made.
No man was ever more bountiful in bis char
tiles, more sensitively alive to human suffer-
ing in every condition of life, more uncom-
promisingly hostile to every form of tyranny
and oppression. Lame and infrm in health
in boyhood, bis earliest earnings were shared
with an impecunious and tbriftless father,
and as he became more prosperous, he devo-
ted by far the greater portion of his income
to the aid of relatives, to the most remote
ties Of consequently. AT time when con-
tumely and reproach only rewarded the la
bors Of the abolitionist he made himself the
champion of the negro slaves, and bore ON
bis own person taunts aud insults almost as
CALLING as their chains; when his party was
triump phant, he did not cease to advocate the
the same federation Of opinion and freedom OF
discussion which he had demanded for him
self under adverse circumstances; he never
countenanced imprisonment or persecution for
political offences against bis party, or failed
to denouuce every act of mob violence COM
mitted in the name of loyalty; in Fastening to
Richmond to offer himself as bondsman for
Jefferson Davis, he but acted from the i'm
pulses of bis own nature, and not from any
consideration Of personal or party policy.
There is to-day no better living representa-
tive of the highest type Of the American
character, and whose life, character, and
splendid abilities could shed greater lus-
ire upon our free institutions aud more emo
hle the first Office in the nation.

The Committee also strongly recommend
that no advertisements be received from
Eastern agencies, the transactions with them
for the last three years having been of very
unsatisfactory character. The committee
were unanimously of the opinion that it was
the better plan to leave that matter to the
San Francisco agencies, being assured that
arrangements WOULD be made to accommo-
date all Eastern advertisers au at early day.
The committee would earnestly recommend
unanilnity and concert in this matter, as the
amount of. Eastern advertising unpaid to the
interior press for the last two years exceeds
sixty thousand dollars When such adver-
tising was done by San Francisco agents, no
such losses were had; that in this matter the
newspaper proprletors had no other alterna-
tive to protect themselves. s.-Pacifc Coast

OLD TRAD1T1oNs.-Some curious ideas ex-
isted among the Rabbins touching the origi-
nal form Of Adam, and the peculiar dress
made for him and Eve before the fall. One
tradition has it that the father of mankind
was originally furnished with tail, but that
it was cut off by his Maker because he
looked better without it. Another tradition
asserts that before the fall, Adam and Eve
had transparent covering, a robe Of light,
of which remnants are left to mankind in the
nails of the hands and feet. The original
hue Of the father of man is said to have been
a bottle-green.

lash terrified horse. Go whip your wife

will make good husband if he will abuse a
dumb brute! tell you, l would rather
marry Sepoy. Take my advice, ye young
maidens contemplating matrimony. Never
marry man who is impudent to his mother,
snubs his sister, helps himself to the biggest
piece of cake, or beats his horse causelessly
