some ONE TO HELP.

In Watsonville resides good old colored
man, by the name Of Uncle Dan. He has
had an eventful history as a slave and freed
man. but now he has considerable property.
aud Is living comfortable and happy. He
was never taught to read, and many things
lie sees in is travels are very strange 10 his
inexper'ence eyes. A few months ago he
went TO the Hot Springs as servant to a
gentleman who was sick. Stopping at the
Sprin. Mt the same time was well-known
ven riloquist. One nolpng Uncle Dan
went out to the celebrated water, bnbbline
up warm and steaming from the depths be-
low, and sat down to watch operations.
The ventriloquist was also at the Spring
that morning. v r zorro f..a ri IT.
Hello. up there. said . gloomy, muf-
fed voice, far under the waters, much to
Dams aston;stment.
"Is ii e water warm enough ?" inquired
the voice, and Uncle Dan looked serious.
and the whites of his large eyes CLEANED
unnaturAlly from his ebony face as he
moved back few steps.
"Splend'd!-just right" said the gentle
man. s"
sr'I eay," continued the voice. IL have
been down here firing Up for four hundred
years; and travel is every year getting .reat-

tinctly. au laI,s.... anl l.g.I
"N at dat he say ?" inquired Dan in anx-
ious tones.
He said he wanted you to help fire up
down there. answered the gentleman. 2
The corners Of Uncle Dan q mouth CON-
menced dropping down until they, almost
touched his shoulders; he gave one look al
the hot water, and then deliberately turned
and darted away like shadow which the
clouds sometimes throw npon the earth, and
could never again be induced to take bath
in the mysterious walers Of the Gilroy

ABRAHAM LINCoLN.-Early in the war a
party of distinguished gentlemen froE New
England called on Mr. Lincoln TO urge the
appointment Of certain Mr.. Brown 10 the
post of quar,ermaster. The President, who
was amusing himself by splitting portions Of
he staircase Of ihs White House into rails.
received them cordially. They stated their
errand il an earnest but respectful tone, and
calmly awaited his answer. Mr.. Lincoln,
drawing himself up to Ills full height, and
clapping the spokesman Of the party on the
shoulder. began to tell story about a dog
rght lie once saw in Kentucky.
BY and by it had gradually grown dark
several hours had passed away, and neither
dog appeared to get killed or TO gain any
advantage over the other. One by one the
party had dropped out, till the leader (who
did not wish to disturb Mr.. Lincoln's hold
on his shoulder) was left alone, trying to
conceal yawn and to look interested
Suddenly, Mr.. Lincoln, with that peculiar
smile OH bis countenance which Mr.. Carpen-
ter can talk abo.t, but cant paint, remarked
"By the way, my friend, I'm sorry for
Brown, but gave that appointment to the
other man yesterday" fH
DANIEL WIBsTEH.-The following anec-
dote of the great Massachusetts statesman
has never before appeared in print:
One day, Clay. Webster and Calhoun
met upon the steps of the Capitol. Mr.. Clay
veniured the remark, in his most aAable
style, that it looked like rain. Calhoun
Iooked wise but said nothing. Evidently
he took in the whole situation at a glance.
1t waa crisis for Webster. Carefully lay
ing his thumb behind the third brass button
Of his blue coat, he peered from out Of those

EXEMPTION OF CHURCH PROPERTY.
AT large meeting of the German-Amer-
lean Representative Committee, held a few
evenings ago at Turner Hall, the exemption
Of church property from taxation was dis
cussed with good deal Of warmth. 1t
was claimed hy the speakers that in coun-
try in which church and State are separate,
It is an injustice 10 propertyholders at large
10 tax them for property blongipg to private
corporations. 1t was finally resolved to pc.
ti,ion Congress for relief in the premises.
and to hold series Of mass meetings for
the further presentation Of the subject TO the
people at large. There has always been a
large number of persons opposed TO The cx.
empion of church property from taxation,
because such exemption, it is contended, is
an indirect means Of giving religious sects
State support; Lut the unusual activity Of
the opponents Of church exemption, now
manifested, has been exci'ed by the late ac-
lion Of the Board Of Police. which, under

POOR FAN bA Ek Ohm.

Old Farmer John is sore perplexed-
Nay, Farmer John is sorely vsxed;
He labors carly, labors late,
Yet never talks Of adverse fate;
For all his toilings scarce suffice
OF longed-for lands to pay the price.
The summers come. the summers 90,
The spring showers waste the summer SNOW
The whole from dawn till close OF day
Receiving naught but frowns for pay;
His good wife tolls; ano anxious care
Has faded lip and cheek and hair.
Acres and acres stretch away
CT woodland, corn, of wheat and hay;
His cattle roam o er many hill,
His brOoklet turns the groaMing mill;
Yet still he sighs and longs for more,
And grnmbles thLt er he il poor.
-Four sturdy sons, four daughkrs fair,
Claimed at his hands the ather q care.
He gave them labor without end.
Aud strove like his their souls to bend
Into the narrow groove OF thought
Gold to be earned, land to be bought.
Yet farmer John is growing poor.
You ace it a. you pass his door,
His old brown house is small and mean.
The roof is warped by crack aud seam;
The leaning bars, the half hinged door.
Proclaim old John is very poor.
No books, no pictures on the wall,
Csrpetless rooms and dreary hail.
Why think it strange such farmers boys
Should seek the city's pomp and noise?
Should loathe the very sight Of home.
When naught of joy or grace may GOMEZ
Why think it strange his poor old wife.
Who coined for him her very life,
Should pause at last. despite his frown,
And lay her weary burden down i7
In JOY, walk the streets of heaven,
Where naught is sold, but al 10 given.
Go where you will. search earth around,
The poorest man that can be found

The following remarkable lines we're found in
an old manuscript, without name, date nor sig

ature: @
Our life's show.
We know;
Exceeding vain,
Insane.
'Tis as flower:
One hour
1t blooms then dies,
And lies
Forgotten aye.
But high
Above the earth,
Where mirth
And jolly reign,
And pain
Holds every heart
In part
From all that's true,
And few
Fer lift an eye
On high
Above this life,
So rife
With anxious fears
And tears,
There ia rest
More blest
Than mortals know.
And so
Whatever way
We stray,
Whatever strife
Be rife,
II we but roam
Toward home
Wen rest at last
Life past
In heaven above,
Where love
And peace profound
Abound
There remaineth a rest
To the people Of God.
Strive to enter therein.
Lies fleeting dream
Will seem
Most trifing then.
IL And when
The soul recalls
Its falls
And failings here,
Then near
Approach to death
The breath
1t spent in prayer,
Its care
For harmless things,
The stings
OF adverse fate,
The weight
OF doubts and fears.
The tears
Which spring from WOO
And flow
From every eye;
The sigh
Der some fond sin
Wherein
Such dangers lie; ......
They cry
For strength to live,
And give
Supremest praise
For days
And months and years,
(Tho' tears
Obscure them all.
And fall
Fen while We pray),
Awav,
To Him alone
Whose own
We children are;--
Tht n far
More vain will seem
The dream
OF life on earth;
And worth
Ten thousand pains
The gains .H
Which heavens glad spring
Shall bring.
For what is our life7
It's a vapor indeed, ,.
Soon to vanish away.
