Knocked down and broken into splinters.
The railing Of Jackson Square Is also
broken in several places, and here and

Trees In the Square are fairly riddled

are armed with Winchester rifles
The station itself ia occupied by United

stacked in the court yard, with several
men guarding them. People were con

Necessity Of Ventilation.
From Popular Science Monthly.

From Popular Science Monthly
| hold that the breathing of
impure air is a fruitful source
of disease of the right heart oc-
curing after middle age. How
many people ignorantly favor
it's occurrence by confining
themselves to closely shut, non
ventilated, hot sitting rooms,
in which the corbonic acid has
accumulated to two or three
per cent. of the air they respire.
How many are thus destroyed
by being compelled, through
the exigencies of life, to pass
the crater part of their time in
pits and manufactures where
ventilation is defective, or in
which the air respired is pois-
oned by noxious fumes and Of
fensive emanations from the
materials undergoing the pro-
cess of manufacture! How many
are falling victims to the pois-
onous influence upon the heart
of the atmosphere of an under
ground railway! What do these
facts suggest? How are these
evil results to be prevented?
The simple answer is: Let the
rooms in which you live be ef-
fectually ventilated by an in
coming current Of air filtered
from all adventitious impurities,
and so divided that no draught
shall be felt; and by an outgo-
ing current which shall remove
from the apartments the car
bonic acid, carbonic oxide, sui
phurous-acid gas, sulphureted
hydrogen, and other noxious
compounds, as rapidly as they
are generated. Apply the same
principle to public buildings,
theaters, schools, manufactures,
pits, and to all places in which
people are accustomed to con-
gregate.

Each in His Place.

The inspiration which ami
mates the Christian life the vital
ity which makes it known to us
all--is individual. Truth is its
nucleus, faith its handspring,
but an individual character IS
developed, perfect itself, SO far
as it allows the Spirit of God
freely to working in and through
it.
The purging and purify
ing goes on, cutting off a sell
fish excrescence here, trimming
out a self-developed branch
there; that it may expand its
life into one more natural, more
pure, more beautiful and blame
less and at the same time more
powerful and effective.
The annals of faith already
sparkle with brilliant names.
Christ giving the lustre; but
there are those unknown, men
and women invested with love-
illness unspeakable, in toilsome
lives and humble spheres. This
same love of Christ has con-
strained them, ,and purified them,
and made them what they are.
Yet each is individual; each
himself perfected. Each shines
with his own brightness, reflect
ing to the extent of his own
capacity the light of his Maker
Individual grace, distinctive
excellence, shines from each.
Though ten thousand times
ten thousand join the ranks of
the redeemed, the note of each
is needed to make the harmony
of the chorus complete.
Neither in the exact repetition
of his fellow there. Different
glories developed in the saints
of God make beautiful the
upper Eden. Is it not so here?
The same love constraining
brought out a Stephen and a
Polycarp which under other
circumstances gave us a Whit
field or a Wesley. And the
spirit which animated a Judson
and a John Williams may be
recognized in some daily visitor
in our city. Does not this
ennoble our individual lives and
make them beautiful? God is
working in and through us to
make us what He has before
designed.

A Ten Thousand Dollar Bill.
From the New York Wnrldl

lrroh inc new 4 Ofk world.
In the bookstore of Mr.. Bou,
ton, on Broadway, there is now
on exhibition what is certainly
the most valuable copy of the
Holy Bible ever compiled. It
represents the industrious toll
of thirty years of an English
collector Of Biblical prints,
etchings, engravings, original
drawings in oil and water col
ors, and authoritative or curious
editions Of the Scriptures, and
IS now roughly valued at S1O,-
oo0, though its real price may
very likely prove to be much
higher. The complete text used
is that of DR., Kitto's edition of
King James Bible. But this is
but a fractional part of the six
ty huge folio volumes through
which it is spread. Sometimes
the reader will turn over fifty
consecutive pages of illustra.
''tlons of those scattered frag.
ments.
Such subjects for example as
Susanna and the Elders" or
"Daniel in the Lions Den," are
enriched with scenes of illustra-
tons drawn from every field Of
art-the convent missals of the
medieval ages, the strange,
tanciful, strikingly false draw
ings of the Italian masters, the
grotesque works of Dutch and
Uerman painters, and the later
and more truthful efforts of
modern artists, in all this Won

votion to a worthy hobby, in

some Of them worth from $50
to Sl00 each, and extracts
from some thirty editions OF
the sacred text. Such a treas
ure ought speedily to find a
purchaser in some of our few
great Libraries, where it would
be an unlailing spring of de
light and instruction to artists
and men of letters.

ne rested on a couch, we found
her in her coffin. We went in
alone, save the presence of
those not to be seen by mortal
eyes. We could not help lift
ing the lace from her face as
she lay there in her departed
resemblance, and look upon the
former home of her absent spir-
1t. This was where she lived |!
This ~as her abode. This was
what she had of earth in which
to work and fit herself for the
eternal duty before us. This
was the beautiful home from
which her beautiful spirit, so
full Of love, light, life, and
Epromise of happiness had gone
on its God-bidden journeying.
And this was slhe-no more
now than the marble statue of
the child holding a poor lamb
in her bosom, standing near us
as we write. Cold-lifeless-
the work of a power the statue
knows nothing of--and to this
we must all come. Well-God
speed the day when our work
will be done, if it be we'll done,
as we try to have it, for then
we, too, can rest, and no more
suffer and endure till life seems
such a weary, weary burthen,
but for the good we can do to
and for others.
We found him asleep. In
that tired, nervous, sleep that
brings not tire rest of sweet re-
pose. Drawing chair close
beside his bed: we looked at
him, and pitied him who was to
follow her who had gone to
make a Home for him in
Heaven,. or the Eternal Rest
ing-place, as he had made one
for her on earth.
And we looked into his heart
into his soul. We saw rising
from the agony-leayes under
which bis heart was quivering,
words. Would you know what
he said-what these words
were-these thoughts which
were rising like a fog to weight
his bleeding love iato the chasm
of despair ? We will tell you,
for we saw them, and prayed
God to send pitying angels
with ours to give him rest In
hope and heart.
