'CABLE INVESTMENTS" I" the London Bsnan
cSeT says, "have this satisfactory popularity
that events which prove disastrous to other
undertakings bring nothing but benefit to
them" This Is illustrated by the statement
that the traffic receipts of the Atlantic cables
and Saturday, 10th and Goth OF September
and that the average for that month, includ.
ing sundays, has been about $4,000 per day
or 81, ,S25, 600 per annum. The British govern

A CHRISTIAN GKNrLEMAN.-He is
above mean thing. He cannot stoop
to y mean fraud. He invades no secrets
in the keeping of another. He betrays
no secret confided to his own keeping.
he uses no ignoble weapons in cOntrOv-
csy. He never stabs in the dark. He
is not one thing to mans face and an
other behind his back. II by accident
he comes into possession of his neigh
bOr's counsels, he passes upon them an
act Of instant oblivion. He bears sealed
packages without tampering with the
wax. Papers not meant for his eve,
whether they dutter in at his window or
lie open before him in unguayled ex.
posnre, are sacred to him. He prizes in
to no privacy Of others, however the sem
try sleeps. Bolts and bars, locks and
keys. hedges and pickets, bonds and
securities, notices to trespassers, are
none OF them for him. He may be trus-
ted-himself out of sight-near the thin
nest partition, anywhere. he buys no
Office, he sells none, intrigues for none.
He would rather fail of his rights than
win them through dishonor. He viii
eat honest bread. He tramples on nc
sensitive feeling. He insults no man.
II he have rebuke for another, he il
straightforward, open and manly. Il,
cannot descend to scurrility. From al
profane and wantOn words his lips ar,
chastened. In short, whatever he judge
honorable, he praetisss toward ever,
man.

Law Of Love.

Love makes it own law and writes it
on the heart in which it breathes and
lives. No book in the world would be
so large as to hold all the laws that
love would write, if it told Us at once
all we should feel, think, say and do
for man all the days of our life. The
ten laws that God wrote on stone are
full of notes. All of them but one tell
US what not to do. But when God put
his love IN the heart Of man, it writes
there with its pen what it shall do to
all who live near him, or whom he
deals with. He loves them not simply
because that God tells him he must do
SO. Good will to them is the breath
Of his own soul and his soul must
breathe though it is not told to do 50.
This, then, is the love of the heart
and life. 1t is not put in words. 1t
does not tell man how or when he
shall think kind thought, speak q
kind word or do kind act, no more
than he need to tell his lungs when to
breathe, or his blood when to run or to
stop in his veins. This law acts of its
own self, just rs the heart does when
it beats or sends blood TO the brain
Quick as thought can move, it fills the
eye with sweet delight which no law
put in golden words could make to
shine there. 1t gives a kind tone to
the voice which mere words could not
teach the tongue or lips to breathe.
1t gives the hand warmth that the
blood does not make, and which the
man who folds it in his, feels all the
way to his own heart.
So love has its light, life and law.
Heaven is called world Of light. The
best book says there is no night there !;
that the face of God is the sun that
fills it with day that can have no end.
Now all the hearts that burn with His
love here are lamps that shine with the
same light that his face gives out to all
who live in Heaven. And the earth
grows more like Heaven the more of
such lamps there are lit on it. And a
child's heart may hold as much of
Gods love, and make as bright lamp
of its light, as the heart Of a man in
the prime of life. For an old man, if
he dies with none of his love in him,
dies a child at the dawn of life. He
has not lived at all in the best sense.
He has lived q mere mole in the
ground.-[ Elihu Burrat.
Ellsworth American. [volume] (Ellsworth, Me.) 1855-current, 1873-06-12

TRANsFIxED.- The following rare bit
is from the Saturday Eevning Post:
We shall never forget that evening we
spent at Magruder's years ago. We
admired Miss Magruder, and we went
around to see her. 1t was summer
time, and moonlight, and she sat up
on the piazza. The carpenter had been
there that day, gluing up the rustic
chairs on the porch, SO we took seat
on the step in front of Miss Magruder,
where we could gaze into her eyes and
drink in her smiles. 1t seems probable
that the carpenter must have upset his
glue-pot on the spot where we sat, for
after enjoying Miss Magruder's remarks
for couple of hours, and drin king sew
eral of her smiles, we tried to rise for
the purpose of going home, but found
that we were immovably fixed to the
step. Then Miss Magruder said: "dont
be in hurry and We told her we be-
lived we wouldn't. The conversation
had sadder tone after that, and we sat
there thinking whether it would be bet
ter to ask Miss Magruder to withdraw
while we disrobed and went home in
Highland costume, or whether we
should urge her to warm up the poker,
or whether we should give one terrific
wrench and then ramble down the ward
backward. About midnight Miss Mag
ruder yawned, and said she believed she
would 90 TO beo. Then we suddenly
asked her if she thought her father would
have any objection to lending us his
front steps for few days, because we
wanted to take them home for patternp
We think Miss Magruder must have en-
tertained doubts of our sanity, for she
rushed in, called her father, and scream
ed. Magruder came down with
double-barelled gun Then we explained
the situation in whisper, and he proc
cured q saw and cut out the piece OF
step to which we were attached. Then
We went home wearing the patch, and
before two O'Clock crushed ont our love
for Miss Magruder. We never called
again, and she threw herself away on
dry goods man. There is a melancholy
satisfaction in recalling these memories
OF youth, and rejecting upon the infu-
ence Of glue upon the emotions Of the
! human heart.
