Those who are engaged in the sale of ardent
spirits, and who wish to continue in that busi-
ness, cannot DO a more absurd thing than to
resort to illegal violence in the contest with
the prohlbltiOnists; yet these illegal expe-
dlents are often resorted to. There is a lodge
OF Good Tempars at Grand Isle, Vt. Some
time ago the lOdge-room Was broken into and
badly damaged. A few days since the outrage
was repeated. The doors were forced, the or
gan was drenched with nitric acid, the regalia
was destroyed, and miniature coffin was left
with Inscribed threats of personal violence
against the Good Templars and of the entire
destruction of the building by nitro. glycerine.
We can imagine no more foolish or suicidal
business than this. The temperance men
charge the spirit sellers with being the enc
mics of peace and good order, and the spirit
sellers straightway proceed to make good the
accusations OF their opponents, and that, toe,
at time when the prejudice and crusade
against tie trafc is at the hottest! Here are
vendors who not only claim the right to sell
rum, but who also claim that all men shall
drink rum, whether they wish to or not One
would think that these Vermont bar keepers
had been partaking of their own fluids. au
lmprudence Of which such men are not often
guilty.

TIREsoME PEOPLE.-There are a certain
people with whom | used to think myself WON
dertully congenial We liked the same books,
pictures, and what-not had set ourselves to the
accomplishment OF much the same objects in
HE; never qualreled about the slightest thing
and yet Tor some mysterious reason could
never endure their company more than half an
hour at time. There were my old chums
whose mature tastes and aims were very differ
emit from mine, yet near whom could spend days
and weeks and years with the utmost serenity.
How to account for this difference [ did not
know,-until, at last, | found that the trouble
lay IN the fact these congenial uncongenial
friends were all in the same tone. 1t was like
living IN some mOnotOnOusly gorgeous Yellow
stone country, than which | could imagine
nothing more wearing to the soul. You see,
ordinary people like you and me cannot stand
a constant strain upon the higher emotions
doubt whether anybody can Ifthere is not

experience of your grand, solemn natures,
there Is at least grim savagery that takes its
place, and answers the purposes of recreation.

ABOUT RELICs.-Which Of us is there who
in youth never kept relics? 1t is hard to i'm
aglne it, but that sharp practitioner, Dir. A.,
that hard featured and rough spoken old SOL
dier, Major e., not to speak Of that husting
matron, Mrs. d., or that sour faced Miss f.,
have each of them had in their time-and not
a few of them keep even now-in a little cor
ner of their desk scrap of written paper,
dead flower, aR old glove, a lock of hair, a pho
tograph, worthless old ring, or some such
rubbish" " the consignment of which to the
dusthoe would cost them struggle they are
by no means prepared to encounter. 1t is a
great mistake to suppose these relics have al
ways to do with love making though We sup
pose lovers are most apt to accumulate them.
The "Old Arm Chair, of which Eliza Cook
wrote so tOuchingly the lock of soft faxen
hair cut from the baby head laid untimely in
the little grave-these, and hundred things
like them, are relics far more dear to many
heart than the withered rose or half soiled
ball glove, which recalls only a transient gust
of passion, rather than feeling deep as the
soul which holds it. AS to religious emotion,
who is there that does not recognize the pro-
found truth of the beautiful old tale of Bethel
the "altar" which every heart unconsciously
builds wherever it has beheld the ladder which
may lead from earth to heaven, and to which
it returns.ever and anon from life Wanderings

THE BURIAL OF MOSES.
DEUT. XXXVII: 6.

BY Nebo's lonely mountain,
On this side of JOrdans wave,
In vale in the land OF Moab.
There lies a lonely grave;
And no man dug that sepulchre;
And no man saw it e'er
For the angels of God upturned the sod,
And laid the dead man there.
That was the grandest funeral
That ever passed on earth;
But no man heard the tramping
Or saw the train 20 forth.
As noiseless as the daylight
Comes when night is done,
And the crimson streak on oceans cheek
Grows into the great sun.
As noiseless as the spring time
Her crown of verdure weaves.
Aud all the trees on all the hills
Open their thousand leaves
So without sound OF music,
Or voice of them that wept.
In silence down the mountains crown
The great procession swept.
Perchance the bald old eagle
On gray Beth-Peor's height,
Out of his rocky eyrie,
Looked on the wOndrOus sight.
Perchance the lion, stalking,
Still shuns that halOwed spot
For beast and bird have seen and heard
That which man knowelh not.
But when the warrior dieth,
His comrades in the war,
With arms reversed and mufIed drums,
Follow the funernal car.
They show the banners taken,
They tell OF battles won,
And after him lead the masteress steed,
While peals the minute gun.
Amid the noblest OF the land
They lay the sage 20 rest,
And give the bard an honored place
With costly marble drest,
In the great minister transept.
Where lights like glories fall
And the sweet choir sings, the organ rings
Along the emblaloned walls.
He was the bravest warrior
That ever buckled sword,
This the most gifted poet
That ever breathed "a word.
And never earth's philosopher
Traced with his golden pen,
On the deathlesS page. truth halt so sage
As he wrote down for men.
And hath he not high honorr
The hill side for his pail
To lie IN state while angels wait,
With stars for tapeTs tall?
And the rocking pines. like tossing plumes
Der his bier to wave;
And Gods own hand III that lonely land,
To lay him in his grave.
In that deep grave without name,
Whence his uncOiIned clay
Shall break again-mOst wOndrous thought
Before the Judgment day.
And stand with glory wrapped around
On the hills ne never trud,
Aud speak OF the strife that won our Life
With the Incarna,e Son Of God.
