The Arctic Night at Norway

No experience of the long days in the
north of Scotland, or even at Throndh-
jem (63l degrees,) gives any adequate
forecast of the true arctic night. Near
the arctic circle you may, for about
fortnight at midsummer see the sun de.
scend below the horizon at ten minutes
to twelve, leaving a subdued light, as if
he were behind a cloud, and rise again
at ten minutes past, nearly at the same
spot, which Of course is north, with en-
HANGED splendor. For the few minutes
of the suns absence, night chill is per-
ceptible, which is dispelled directly by
its rising rays but so far we havo not
yet reached the arctic summer. The
next night, if you have been voyaging
on meanwhile, you must be degree OF
so within the circle, and if the weather
is fine and the northern horizon free
from high land, you may carefully watch
the golden orb (not generally so red al
with us) descend toward the horizon, bu
when about three times his own diane
ter from the horizon, after few MINUTES
of apparent standstill, begin to rise agaiI

| The heat and brilliancy Of the SUI
this night are such that parasols are gen
orally used, till the interest of the fe'
minutes of crisis causes them to be dis
carded, and that if there be not to

A Remarkable Masonic Incident.

The first Masonic funeral that ever &C.
Cured in California took place in 1S49,
and was performed over brother found
drowned in the bay of San Francisco.
An account of the eeremonies states that
on the body of the deceased was found
silver mark of Mason, upon which
were engraved the initials of his name.
A little further investigation revealed to
the beholder the most singular exhibit
ton of the Masonic emblems that was
ever drawn by the ingenuity Of man up
on the human skin. There is nothing
in the history of traditions Of Freema-
sorry equal to it. Beautifully dotted
on his left arm, in red and blue ink,
which time could not efiace, appeared all
the emblems of the entire apprentice
ship. There was the Holy Bible. square
and compass, the twenty-four inch gauge
and common gsvel. There was also the
Masonic pavement, representing the
ground floor of King Solomon's temple,
the idented tessel which surrounds it.
and the blazing star in the centre On
his right arm, and artistically executed
in the same indelible liquid, we're th,
emblems pertaining to the fellowcraft'
degree, viz: the square, the level anC
the plumb. There was also the five col
umns representing the five orders Of ar
chitecture-tbe Tuscan, Doric, Ionic
Corinthian and Composite.

body, the trowel presented itself, will

snnrgeon ON Smoking.

Mr.. Spurgeon writes to the London
Telegraph in reply to some structures on
certain remarks of his in defence of
smoking, and says: | demur altogether,
and most positively, to the statement that
to smoke tobacco is in itself a sin. 1t
may become so, as any other Indifferent
action may, but as an action 1T is no sin.
| Together with hundreds Of thousands OF
my fellow Christians, / have smoked,
and with them / am under the condem-
| nation of living in habitual sin, if GER
tain accusers are TO be believed. As !
would not knowingly live even in the
smallest violition of the law Of God, and
sin is the transgression of the law, will
not own to sin when | am not conscious
of it. There is growing up in society
Pharisaic system which adds to the COM
mands of God the precepts of men to
that system | will not yield for an hour.
The preservation of my liberty may
bring upon me the upbraidings of many
of the good and the sneers of the self
righteous but shall endure both with
serenity, SO long as | feel clear in my
conscience before God.
The expression smoking to the glory
of God standing alone has an illsound,
and do not justify it; but in the sense
which l employed it l still stand to it..
} No Christian should do anything in
which he cannot gIorify God-and this
may be done, according to scripture, in
eating and drinking and the common ac-
tions of life. When have intense pain
