ley has been a student in my department of

On entering the University, Miss Indley
possessed already such knowledge of the
French and Spanish dioms as To be able to
speak them with ease, fuency, correctness,
and n pure pronunciation.
She may now be considered thoroughly ia
miliaI with the theory and philosophy, as we'll
as with the application Of these two tongues;
and she may safely be recommended as a can
didate of great promise, for teaching the
French and spanish languages.

lWorld lleport,l


lie selected his text from Matthew viii
-, But Jesus said unto him, follow me-
and le, tho dead bury their dead
No man, said Mr. Bceehsr, can inter
pref the instructions of Jesus who in.
cllues TO the literal and material view Of
lie and duty thero is evidence that his
mind moved in hi. her realm Of thought,
and although it touched the earth it new
er materialzed itself His teaching, in
stead Of being literally simple, is full Of
paradoxes and Of figures and Of surprises.
Whit could be more surprising than his
reply to the Syro. .Phmnicias women. that
he came 10 save tho lost sheep Of isreal
be that came TO save the whole human
race. and then refusing to heal the daugh-
ter Of the Syro. Phnnician woman be-
cause she WAS q jew and then when one
went to him and said, l will follow thee,
but suffer me first to go and bury my
father, his reply was, and il strikes us as
inhuman, Let the dead bury the dead ;
follow thou me- Does religion then re-
quire that man shall forget his father
and mother? Does religion turn his
heart into gall so that he shall hate his
father and mother? Not at all Inter
prSted by the light of the character Of
that generation that was then upon the
earth, there was nothing strange about
the reply They looked upon Jesus as
having come to establish material king
dom. and already saw It's prospective
gories, aud there were plenty Iqaay TO
follow him TO bo his treasurer, his See
retary of State, &c, and this young man
doubtless made this an excuse Tor the
non performance of duty, and Jesus,
knowing it to be fraudulent excuse,
made this reply. To go back, in this
case, to bury his father, would have been
to have gone back and buried himself,
SO our own growth in Christian piety and
manliness lies before and not behind we
are to find oursclvcs--our own best man
hood-not by going back, but by going
forward 1t is right to look back upon
our lifo, upon all things that lay behind
US, for the sake of preparing ourselves
the better TO advance, but not for the sake
Of oxcusing ourselves from advancing,
We have right to look back upon sor.
rows and joys, If they make us SO for
ward, but if they are SO many anchors,
that hold as to the present, they are evil.
The past is not to be the engncry OF dis
tross and suffering to men; their life lies
before them, ,,and every consideration OF
duty to God and to themselves shouid
keep mems eyes looking forward, and
their stops moving on, There isa past
which men may use, full Of sweetness,
full OF love; il may be n place in which
we may bury that which we can no longer
use to advantage, but it may become a
'Gehcnna full of buried pains, and such
n past no man has right to cherish No
matter what man has done. the way for
ward, even though it be the way Of the
thief on the cross, is the right way. Pre-

Truth compels me te state that he hardly
received his share OF attention from the
audience, however Mr. May and grand
ma Freeman dividing it about equally
criove to add that the other church the
minister almost literally preached, that
morning, to bare walls and empty pows,
only few Of the staid father and moth
ers of Israel appearing in their places
But the minister with the small audience
was the favored one. after all, for the
large audience ndgstted uneasily all
through the services, especially when
prayer followed sermon, hymn followed
prayer, benediction followed hymn, and
still no hint came of a wedding csremo-
ny. Slowly the audience filed out, look
lng extremely blank aad puzzled.
What does this mean, May asked
one young man OF our hero rs he stood
coldly on the steps.
Sold rcpliao May, briefly, lsisurel,
taking his way homeward.
The word flew from lip TO, We're all
sold, and one after another looked, and
probably fot, cheap, perhaps made the
wise resolution then aud there, never
again to put faith in flying remors.
Grandma Freeman looked around in
d z.d sort of way, as the pr orle seat
tered. Where's the weddn' 2 she
squealed to her son He locked blank.
Where's the weddin' ? she repeated
in a higher key Belinda aud Mr. May
was goin' to be married, yon know. He
shook his head in surprise, aud all at once
it seemed to burst on her that she had
been deceived.
He lied to me, he did, the miserable
lyin' critter she burst forth in hulter
Of excitement In vain they tried to still
her, for the vias of her wrath were un.
corked, and she poured them out all the
way hame
The good people Of this town have
learned one lesson to-day, besides what
they have heard in the sermons, if I'm
not mistaken, remarked Mr. May to Be
linda. AS he walked home with her that
night after evening service.
why, yes she replied, | think they
may have learned one il they will profit
by it, 1t isn't safe to believe all we hear
1t has made good deal Of sport to
see how easily people have been sold in
this matter. | have been wicked enough
to enjoy it, but | suppose your gland
mother will never forgive me.
Il fear not She persists in thinking
YOU meant to deceive her.
That would have been cruel indeed.
As the matter stands, know of no bet
ter way TO atone for my crime than to
make my supposed story true, and mar
ry Belinda. after all
As saith Sam Lawson, Gals never du
tell these particulars just as you'd like to
hear 'em, so cannot tell what Belinda
said, but when fall came, and Mr.. May
had been admitted to the bar, there was
a wedding at Mrs. Freemans house in
stead Of tho church, and Belinda's dress
was pearl gray silk instead Of popln.
Grandma had on a soft, neat tulle cap in
place Of her big bonnet, and after the
ceremony, as proer that she had forgiv.
en- Mr. May for his supposed deception,
she waddled up to him and gave him a
ronsng kiss

He Carries the Lamb in His Bosom

A sweet golden head had forgotten life's way.
Asleep on its pillow of roses,
Wee hands shutting close as il tired Of play,
Like buds which the summer discloses:
But the beautiful song of my birdie was still,
And over the lips of my blossom
The dmples lay white as the frost on the rill
When spirit sang low to my spirit at will.
" He carries the lamb in his bosom. "
There is never a lamb from loves sorrowful fold
But wanders in fields that ycrnal,
And never a bud hid away from the cold
But blooms in the summer eternal;
When storms sweep the hill. and the night gather
deep,
think of my Paradise blossom.
| hear the same song for the weary that weep,
The weakest are safest, for. over tho steep,
" lie carrie. the lambs in his bosom. -

REAL ESTATE,

During tho past two or three weoks the query
has been often made: "uow will tho financial
panic and the commercial crisis affect real es-
tate ?" Wo have on several occasions already
given the reasons for tho expectation that, even
tually, the effoct Of the crisis would be to make
8 creator demand for city real estate. First, be-
cause capitalists WHO havo heretofore kept O.
large proportion Of their means invested in tho
stocka aud bonds Of corporations, Aaye lost con.
f1dence In Investments OF that kind. In fact,
the general principle Of Joint sioc1: has received
severe blow in the last fow months from tho
1nismanagoment and frauds in connection with
railroads, banks, etc., oto. Men who havemonoy
to invest, and yet do not euro to 60 into active
trade with it themselves, will seek to place 1t In
something which they can control, and not bo
obliged to intruat it to speculating officers md
Directors who will uao it for their own personal
gain, regardless Of tho rights of stock and bond
holders. Tor this clnsB Of dissatisfied capitalists
almost tho only Investments loft are roal eatato
and Government bonds, and aa tho later do not,
at present markot prices, yield 4 sufficient
rate Of iuterest to induce tho Investment Of
american An capital there . j. scarcely any ayonue
III the purchase Of city real oatate.
It ia also now woll-establiBhed fact that tho

OF tho country arc greatly dissatisfied with tho
