AnInYaIuabIe Tea set.

Max Adeler is responsible for the fol-
loving. 1--WE are glad to learn that the
Fmneror of China has issued decree
that If the chief officer Of his household
handles his dishes so oarelessly y Rs to
break them, he shall be killed. We say
we are glad of this, because we hope to
have the same regulation put into effect
in this country. If it is, about two
thousand hired girls will be executed
every week, and we may reasonably
hope that the destruction OF crockery
will be checked. We have stopped 1t
temporarily in our house by having a
tea-set made Of wrought iron and painted
white. When a new hired girl comes
she drops the coffee pot upon the floor.
Finding with amazement that il does
not break, she thumps Il with hatiron,
and drops bricks on it, and goes out and
borrows a sledge hammer and uhRcks il;
and then, perceiving that It is as good
as ever, she sits down in front Of that
coffee Dot and bursts into tears. Thea
he gives warning, loads up with sugar
beef and butter for her sick aunt en-
bezzles three or four hemstitched hand
kerchiefs, and any old pillow cases that
are living around, and starts for the near
est intelligence Office. We wouldn
take q million dollars for that tea-set.

Charity il A sentiment or peryading

Charity is a sentiment or pervading
tendency OF the character, rather than
particular affection IL is the constant
temper Of the heart, not the warmth OF
individual attachments. II acts univer
sally and before personal affections have
time or opportunity to be formed. Il
does not depend on association, or local
connections, or the relations OF mutual
interest, which create so many Of the
strongest aud most faithful bonds Of
earthly fellowship. II exists independ.
emily within the heart and is not excited
into life as the passions are, by the at
fractions and solicitations OF its objects.
II acts at all times and amidst the most
novel and most revolving circumstances,
as truly as amid scenes most familiar,
and with beings most endeared, II is
the sympathy of the spirit with God,
with humanity, with nature. II is the
quick and living sentiment TO which the
Dipine in life is never long obscured.
II is spirit which, when not a natural
gift from God, is the last and most per
feet result Of the discipline from life,
and Of the religious care Of the charac.

governmental orders should suffice 10
swamp the popular creed and 70 restore
the ancient religion 10 its original place.
II is easily comprehensive that the
Mikado's government should desire 10
see Shinioism flourish, but IL is all but
incredible that the nation at large should
so quietly aoquiesee in the change.
II was Of importance TO the chiefs in
the late revolution that they should
make the Mikados authority to shine
with the utmost luster in the eyes OF the
people. 1t was their only show Of right
Without il they were rebels pure and
simple; and even with it they had all
they could do 10 keep down a more
determined opposition than they met
with. 1t was the flag Of the Mikado
which they carried to which the people
bowed; and they did so, as seeing in him
the descendant OF the gods, and one TO
whom they abcord authority even over
the gods. The Emperor is verify and
indeed believed by the faithful to be be-
fore the gods in rank and in power; and
it is with him even to command them.

Touched by an affectionate confidence,
Roundabout quotes in full the biography
of Julius Cesar, as recorded by one Of
bis most devoted admirers:
An ancient Roman of celebrity. He
advertised to the effect that he had
rather be first at Rome than second in
small village. He was a man Of great
muscular strength. Upon one occasion
he threw an entire army across the Ru'
bicon. A general named Pompey met
him in what was called the tented
field, but Pompey couldn't hold Ro-
man candle for julius. We are assured
upon the authority of Patrick Henry
that Caesar had his Brutus." The un.
biased reader Of history, however, will
conclude that, on the contrary, Brutus
rather had Cesar. This Brutus never
struck me as an unpleasant man to
meet, but he did Caesar. After address
ing a few oral remarks to Brutus in the
Latin language, Caesar expired. His
subsequent career ceases to be interest
