SOMETHING NEw.--" We've got some
thing new at our house!" geeiuly exclaimed
an errand boy, one day last week, as he
entered the shop where he was employed.
"What is II" blandly inquired his mas.
ter, thinking, perhaps, it was baby, OF
something of the kind.
"Ohl my sisters all broke out with the
smallpox" was the delighted reply.
The firm have secured the services Of a
new errand boy.

To resist temptation once is not suf-
iieient proof of honesty. If servant, in
deed, were to resist the continued temptation
Of silver lying in a window, as some people
let it lie, when he is sure his master does
not know how much there is of it, he would
give a strong proof Of honesty. But this is
a proof to which you have no right to put
man. You know, humanely speaking,
there is certain degree of temptation which
will overcome any virtue. Now, in so far
as you approach temptation to man you
do him an injury, and if he is overcome,
you share his guilt.-JoInson.

When God will educate man he
compcls him to learn bitter lessons. He
sends him to school to the necessities rather
than to the graees, that by knowing all suf-
fering he may know also the eternal con.
solations.

The Danbury Ne,os gives an account OF
the yicssitudes Of life as experienced by a
young man in that place. lie went to see
young lady, previously just having been
to an oyster supper. As he neared the
house he saw her father standing on the
steps, and hailed him; 4" Hello, old Tad
pole; Eat you2 Where ish my lovely gaz.
zelle2 Where is my love now dreamin'2"
The father looked at the young man, and
thinking he wanted something, placed his
hand sadly on his shoulder, turned him
around, and filled the space under his coat
tail with leather. The young man don't go
there any more he says smallpox i
hereditary in the family.

Among the early Christian legends a
story is related of colloquy which took
place between a father Of the second cen.
tury and an evil spirit in a Christian, whom
he was seeking in vain to eject. Upon the
fathers inquiry how he had dared to enter
a Christian, the demon replied II went
not to church after him, but he came to the
playhouse after me, and finding him upon
my own ground, i have sought to secure
him for myself" Whatever we make Of
the legend, let us take heed that we do not
lose the precious moral that lies beneath it.
To be amended by little cross, afraid
of a little sin, and affected by little mercy
is good evidence Of grace in the SOUL

by no means adverse to tho interesta Of the set

PEACE OR WAR?

The exact situation Of the negotiations DE-
tween Washington and Madrid on the com
plications arising out of the Nirglnlus afro
CITY is very hard to get at 1t is reduced 10
tolerable certainty that Secretary Fish made
upon Spain substantially the following de-
msnds:
First. A formal delivery Of the Nirgnius
70 officers Of our Government in port OF the
Uuited States.
| Second. The release and restoration to our
protection of the surviving captives
Third A money indemnity TO the heirs of
all taken on board the Virginius and put to
death.
Fourth The trial and punishment OF Gen
Burriel, and all other responsible officers
Fifth. The immediate and unconditional
abolition Of slavery in Cuba, as the source OF
all pending difficulties and complaints
To this the government at Madrid replies
by temporizing They think it can be shown
that the Virginius was in no sense entitled TO
American protection-that she was Nehe'
zuelan vessel and had often displayed at her
masthead the flag of that country; that none
of the passengers on board the Nirginins were
American citizens, and so on, craving 'tme TO
Investigate these matters.
Fish, by the latest accounts, Is ctouued and
Uneasy, and although on Thursday volumi-
nous dispatches were received from Madrid,
he keeps them tightly locked up and is as!
reticcnt as an oyster.
There is reason to believe, however, not.
withstanding the fiat contradiction at the be.
ginning of the week and publication of al
despatch from Slckles himself,
that there was more truth in the Her0ld des-
path about Sickles' trouble with the Spanish
Minister of Foreign Affairs than the public
were induced to believe. 1t is certain that Sec
retarv Fish now admits that Sickles has DIES
troyed his usefulness at the Spanish Court
and that he must be withdrawn, if he is not
really now on his way home.
The negotiations are doubtless greatly en-.
barrassed by the insecure position of CASTELAR,
himself as head Of the Spanish republic The
and jealousy of the Spanish people |
owardS the United States is such that any
concession CASTELAR, may make, no matter
low reasonable and just, will be sure to be
ezed by bis enemies and made the preteNt
or his overthrow and that of the Spanish
erablic ,of which he is really the life.
