SUPposTNG we saw an army sitting
down before a granite fort. and they told
us that they intended to batter it down.
we might ask them "How?" They
point to a cannon ball. Well. hut there
is no power in that; it is heavy. but not
more than half hundred, or perhaps a
hundred weight: if all the men in the
army buried it against the fort. they
would make no impression. They say
NO, but look at the cannon" a." Well,
there is no power III that; a child may
ride upon it. and Il bird may perch in its
mouth. 1t is q machine. and nothing
more. but, look at the powder. :
Well, there is no power in that; Il child
may spill it, a sparrow may pick it, Yet
this poWeTlcsS powder and powcrlesS bail
are put in the powcrlcSs cannon; one
spark of fire enters it. and then. in the
twinkling of an eye, the powder is Il
flash Of lightning, and that camnon-hall
is a thunderholt. which smitcs as if it
had been sent from heaven. So it is
with our Christian machinery of this
day; we have the instruments necessary
for pulling down strougholds, and oh.
for the baptism of fire ,--lrtf1r.

Jack in the Pulpit.

Jack in the Pulpit.
BY J. G. WHITTIER.
Under the green trees
just over the way
Jack in the pulpit
breaches to-day;
Squirrel and song sparrow,
High on their perch,
Hear the sweet lily bells
Ringing to church.
Come hear what his reverence
Rises TO say
In his queer little pulpit
This fine Sabbath day.
Fair is the canopy
Over him seen,
Painted by Natures hand
Black, brown and green;
Green is the pulpit,
Green are his bands;
In his queer little pulpit
The little priest stands.
AZ bieS' n anu gnu NtNtt,
SO gorgeous to see,
Comes with his bass voice
The chOriSter bee:
Green fingers playing
Unseen On wind IyreS,
Bird voices singing
These are his choirs.
The violetS are deaconS,
know by this sign,
The cups that they carry
Are purple with wine.
The columbines bravely
As sentincls stand
On the lookout, with
Al their red trumpets in hand.
Neek-faced anemOnes,
Dropping and sad;
Great yellow yioletS,
Smiling out glad;
Buttercups' faces,
Roaming and bright;
CloverS with bonnctS
Some red, some white;
Daisies. their fingers
Half clasped in prayer;
Dandelions proud Of
The gold in theiE hair;
lnnOcentS, children
GuiJelesS and frail,
Tirvlt ruvvN niNsl>- f.----
Upturned and pale;
Wildwood geraniums
All in their best,
Languidly leaning
In purple gauZe dressed
All are assembled
This sweet Sabbath day
To hear what the priest
In his pulpit will say.
10! white Indian pipes
On the green NOSES lie
Who has been smoking
Profanely, so nigh;
Rehuked by the preacher
The mischief is stopped.
But the sinners in haste
Have their little pipes dropped;
Let the Wind with the fragrance
OF fern and black birch
Blow the smell Of the smoking
Clear out of the church.
So much for the preacher,
The sermon comes next;
Shall we tell how he preached it
And where was the text:
Alas. like too many
Grown-up folks who worship
In churches man builded to-day,
We heard not the preacher
ENpound or express;
We looked At the people
And they looked at IA;
We saw all their dresses,
Their colOrS and shapes.
The trim Of their bOnuetS
The cut OF their capeS;
We heard the wind organ,
The bee and the bird,
But Of Jack In the pulpit
We heard not a word.

though a full month have not elapsed; then
afterwards up to the first day of each sue
ceeding month. This will give system to
the reports of the tax collectors of the
State.
3. The sum of ten per cent. upon the
amount collected during the month by any
tax collector will be imposed upon him for
each month he fails or refuses to pay over
the money collected by him.
4. As the poll tax is levied exclusively
for school purposes, it must be returned so
that it can be credited on the books of this
office to the school fund, separate and apart
from the general State tax. If the tax col
lectOr makes his payments to State de
pository, his receipts shouldistate distinctly
what he has paid in poll and what on State
tax.
>. With the 10 per cent. tax on property
for school purposes, the Comptroller has
nothing to do. No report of it should be
made to him. 1t is paid to and distributed
by the County Trustee.
