ENoLAND's PH1LosoPHY,-The remark is
attributed to Bismarck, "What ls the good Of

good Of England i4that she doesn't consider
fighting the chief good Of men or nations. She
has had a vast deal Of il In her time, and knows
what It costs, morally, physically and financially.
Yet, although the result Of her experience seems
to lead her 10 act in accordance with the iDiunc.
tion OF her great dramalist, "bsware Of entrance

Commercial advertiser that il Bismarck should
live long enough to see Germany force her tC

Anosher AaInnesota snow-ssorm.

On wednesday last a asnOw-stOrm, called by the
St. Paul Press Of the 9Th ult ''the snow Of the
prevailed over the greater portion Of
Minnesota and the adjoining States. At st. Paul
there was very little wind, and TIE snow fell to
depth Of eight to ten inches. The Pres antlci-
paled that some of the railroad lines would be
blockaded by the snow from reports that had been
received. "If, however, tho wind abates," 1t says
''all the roads will escape without encounteTing
other than slight Inconvenience" The absence
Of heavy wind has prevented the gathering Oi
heavy drifts, and thus, It Is possible, many lives
that might otherwise have been lost have beer

Death.

Mollis and Charlie Gross, two little chill
lren residing with their parents at or near
Ephrata, Lancaster county, narrowly escaped
being frozen to death one day last week while
they were coasting 1t appears that they left
home in the morning, and were not heard Of
until the afternoon, when the mother, becOm-
ing anxious for the safety of her little ones,
looked out of the window and over the hills
that surrounded her home. She strained her
ewes to the utmost, and at last she thought she
sIw the form Of her little MOllie, In q knee
ling posture, with hands claspej and face
upturned towards Heaven. She huHriedly in
formed her husband OF this fact, and he soon
was on the road to rescue his little darlings.
He succeeded in reaching the hill upon
which hiI liStle daughter was still
kneeling in the snow in the attitude OF
prayer, and soon she was clasped in his
strong arms. Quickly she was bundled up In
blanket, and 1t was not long before she
began to recover from Eer half frozen con
ditiOn. The father asked where Charlie, thC
brother, was, and MOllle said that he hat
gone to her grandfather's in search OF aid
that he had left her there alone. Mr., GroS
then returned to his home where the mother
had been soapXiOQsly waiting TO see and pres
| the little wanderer, MOlile, to her bosom
I Soon after, Charlie, the brother, was brOugh
home by grandpa" Had the little girl no
prayed so long and earnestly, there Is ever
reason to suppose that she would have froZe
to death before aid reached her, but the chile
like faith, which had been imbued Into be
life by her parents, was so strong within ht
that "she could not die" as she said, 'betOI
she asked God to save her. "-Erdminer
