and in Heaven everything is peaceful

She leaned her cheek on her hand and
sighed deeply, looking up she beheld
him gazing earnestly upon her, she
blushed, and was about to retire when
he said:
''Miss Lester will you walk around
the porch with me a few minutes; 1
have something to ask you" She
suffered him to lead her away, and when
at some distance from the crowd, he
said, Miss Amy, 1 have noticed how
cruelty You are treated by your rela-
tions. do you think you could love me
well enough to leave them and be my
little wife ?" "Mr. Evans 1 can not
listen to you, for in speaking thus you
are prompted by pity and not by love-"
the first day did pity you, but since
then l have seen your goodness and
patience, and 1 love you now, my darling,
deeply passionately, do you love me, will
you be my wife. Othink, darling Amy
before you render me miserable for
life." Well Carl, she said, 1 love you,
but this is so sudden that 1 can not
give you my final answer until to-mor-
row, so au revoir till then," and before
he could utter one word of fremonstrance
she was gone.
"Ah, well, 1 will try to kill time till
tomorrow by going to bed," and light
ing cigar he went, if not to bed, to
his own chamber where he will leave
him for the present.
The next morning Mr.. Meredith
came into the private parlor. where the
family together with Mr.. Evans were
seated, ,glancing hastily around he espied
Amy, and going up to her he said,
Amy, good news, good news your
late uncle left another will in which you
are the sole heiress of his wealth, it was
discovered only yesterday in bundle
of old papers. Esther, Maude, why do
you not congratulate little Amy on her
good fortune, for my part l am glad,
not only on Amy's account but also on
my own, for this reason, that 1 may
give up playing the gentleman. Well
Amy what have you to say about 1t.
"Well uncle, in the first place l have to
thank you for this both great and good
news, and your kindness since L have
been in your house, secondly, l forgive
aunt Esther and beg her to accept half
of my fortune, to Mr.. Evans will an.

last night, and want Msude if she will

The deepest mine in Cornwall is Dol
coath, now about $50 fathoms, or 720
yards, from the surface. The workmen
descend and ascend by means of men,
engines, and Captain Josiah Thomas,
the manager, as an illustration of the
healthy condition of the workings,
states that one man has been working
in the mine for forty years. During
all that time he has lived at Connor
Downs, a distance of five miles from
the mine, so that he has been walking
ten miles per day in addition to his
labor, and calcucation which Captain
Thomas has made shows that this man
has, during his forty years work,
walked 120, 900 miles, which is equal to
a journey five times round the earth,
or half the distance to the moon.

From Maggie Mischief's Diary.

They who are led by their feelings
are like paper kites driven by the wind
quite as likely to be cast down one
moments as to be elevated the next.
Praise from the wise man is like bread
to the starving-it encourages life.
Hope to the downcast is ike raft to
The shipwrecked-it bears hira over tbs
gulf of despair and often rewards him
with pleasant shore.
Suspicion is like a magnifylng glass
through it most trifng atoms are
made to appear of false magnitude;
Assistance from the selfish is like
pin neither can mend difficulties with
out stab.
To need q coat is q better condition
of circumstance that to need q princl-
PIE.

BLIND BILLT.-We have canary-bird
in our house that we are all very fond
of. We call him Billy. He is a very
sweet singer but he cannot see.
A long time ago he was in cage with
other birds /; and, in a quarrel, poor
Billy got his eyes pecked so badly, that
he became entirely blind. The children
have to take great care of him for, if
MS perch is not put in the same place
every time, he cannot find his food.
But 1 believe Billy sings more than
birds that are not blind. When he
hears the twitter of sparroWs in the
garden, or the singing OF the tea-kettle
on the stove, be seems TO think it his
duty to sing. And, when his cage
hangs in a window on a sunny day in
winter, he sings as though he thought
summer had come.
Whenever hear Billy sing, it makes
me think of the two great poets, Homer
and Milton. They were blind but,
like our Billy, they sang sweet songs.
II is said that Homer had to beg for a
living. Our Billy sings for a living
but he does not beg. Two kind little
girls, Lena and La, are careful to keep
his seed-cup full.

WHEN you hear wise men talk about
the Tariff, remember this:
When the MOors held the south of
Spain they made all vessels that passed
through the straits OF Gibralter pay
toll at the little town of Tarifa, accord
ing to the value they carried. Thence
came the word tariff, found in all
European languages. 1t means prop
erly list of goods with the duties that
must be paid for bringing them into
the country. The duty is the money,
the tariff is the list.

You've MECHANICS. is no class
of the community upon whom the fu-
ture welfare of the country more essen
TALLY depends than upon the rising
generation of young mechanics. Ii they
are intelligent, sober, industrious and
consequently independent, able and
accustomed to judge for themselves,
and governed In their conduct by an
enlightened view of their own best in
terests /; if they are men of this sort,
the mechanics, and especially the young
mechanics, will form, in conjunction
with the young farmers of the country,
bulwark against monopoiies and cor
Tupt politicians, and save the republic.
If, on the other hand they are ignorant,
idle, dissOlute, and consequently poor,
and dependent upon those who are
willing to trust them-if our mechanics
should unhappily become such class
they would soon be converted into the
mere tools of a few rich and artful men,
who, having first stripped them of every
sense of self respect, and every feeling
proper to vIrtuOus citizens, would use
them as passive instruments for pro-
noting their own ambitious objects,
and for the enactment of laws which
are beneficial to nobody but the artful
few and base demagogues with whom
they originate.
1t is as true of the mechanical arts as
OF any other profession that "knowl-
edge Is power.

THE HUNGRY Docs OF SIBERIA
Poor fellows Hungry from morning
until night hungry all the time except
during the short summer, when they
go a-fshing and help themselves L
wonder how their drivers would like to
wait all day long for the first sign of
/ breakfast /; but that is Just what the
Siberian dogs who live at home are re-
/ quired to do even when they travel all
/ day.
| Dismal fate to be kept at starvation
| point so long, and then to get only a
small piece of dried salmon to sleep
upon. Ii some wise dog would travel
to that region and howl little about
emigration / think there would soon be
too many dogs about this. Mr.. Bush,
who travelled through a portion of
Siberia few years ago, tells us that
when journey over the frozen rivers
of Siberia is about to be made the
natives are astir at daybreak, and having
called and vhistled their dogs they
harness them up in pairs to long seal
thongs, fastened between two trees,
preparatory to attaching them to the
sleds. With the exception of a few
''slumber-loving, lazily-inclined old
beasts, who have learned to look upon
journey as a task" the dogs respond
as promptly as could be desired, and
are wild with excitement and delight at
seeing the light sleds dragged from
their shelter. They sometimes set up
barking, yelping and bowling that may
be heard for miles on the still air, and
are SO eager for the start that there is
danger OF The seal-thong being broken
and the whole band rushing of pell-
nell without the sleds. Mr.. Bush tells
OF one poor little dog who excited all his
sympathy: ''In making up the teams
only thirty dogs were selected out of
the large number in the village to draw
out three sleds. OF those left behind
one poor little fellow had manifested
the greatest delight at the prospect of
journey. None jumped higher or barked
louder than he, and from the commence
ment of the preparations he stood up
ready to be harnessed.
When he saw that tine others were
attached to the thong, and that no
attention had been paid to him, he
walked up to the team aud with an air
OF quiet patience, took his place in the
line with the expectation of being har-
messed. To prevent him from accom-
panying the teams, strap was put
abOut his neck and he was tied fast to
post.
The poor fellow dropped his tail and
his Intelligent countenance expressed I.
the most intense disappointment. He
evidently felt the denial as acutely as
could any human being = = Fifteen,
twenty, and sometimes thirty dogs are
to one sled. 'sThe characters /.
of these dogs are as diversified as those
of human beings. They are possessed .
of great intelligence and acuteness. /
outwitting their masters. /
Some are reserved and dignifed, seem .
ing to fully realize the obligations /
which devolve upon them, and enter
into their duties with conscientious
zeal
These dogs are placed at the head of
the train to set good example to the .
young rattle-brains who follow them.

WHAT THE DEMOCRACY WILL
DEMAND

Is the conundrum proposed by the
New York Republic. We do not, nor do
we expect that the body OF the Demo.
Gratis know themselves what they will de-
mand; but it is easy for any one to know
that unless the incoming party is actua-
ted with the soundest and most moder-
ate views, their late victory will be q bar
rem and isolated one, with no practical
benefit for themselves or any one else.
The one thing needful to be done by the
Democrats Of the next House Of Repre-
sentatives, is to show that they are guild.
ed by no sectional feeling, but intend to
legislate for the whole country. Let
them show this; let them show that it is
not their intention to disturb or restrict
the political status Of the negroes; but on
the contrary, to respect the constitutions
al provisions made for the benefit of the
colored population. They must also
show that they accept in their entirely
the results of the war, and regard the
settlement made by it as final, conclu
sive and sacred. If the Democratic ma.
jority of the next Congress prove by theil
works that they are reliable and trust.
worthy in these respects, they may rea.
sonably look forward to o long lease Of
power, but not otherwise.

SEVEN BIGoTs .-Philadelphia ought to
be happy, if it is not, for it includes
within its population seven thick-headed
zealots, miscalled clergymen. who re-
fused to perform burial service when
requested, because the deceased during
its lifetime had been an actor. Now we
have no idea but that the dead would be
just as we'll off without the ceremony;
but for all that, it does look SO ridiculous
for dunder-headed parson to refuse to
perform the last rites over corpse sim
ply because during its lifetime an avoca-
ton was pursued which did not meet the
contracted views of these dull-brained
bigots.

CoNUNDRUMs are now the order OF the
day, and the one that is occupying the
most of the time OF the administration
and the leaders of the Republican party,
is solving the enigma as to what were
the causes of its recent discontinue.
Was it Congress and the Civil Rights
bill, the panic or the third term2 The
New York Herald says it was the last,
Cameron the second and Grant the first.
If it is not right for layman to intrude
an opinion when doctors disagree. how
much less should an obscure scribbler
obtrude his opinion when no two of the
great lights of the Republican party can
agree upon the causes which led to the
ruin of their political prospects. We
might, however, venture this much, that
the truth laid between them all; that the
great revulsion was caused by the third
term, the panic, misgovern ment and cor.
ruption combined, with deep seated
disgust and distrust at and of the admin
istration and the prominent leaders of
the party.

temporal power. He ridicules such q
project, but adds that it is difficult to
over-estimate the effect of the strife;
that it would probably jeopardize the
peace OF Europe. He closes with an APP
peal to the citizens of the nineteenth
century to follow the example Of their
forefathers of the sixteenth, when, mar
shalled to resist the Armada, they de-
clared that England was peopled by
stout hearted race, not to be hindered by
foreign influence or caste from accom-
plishing her mission in the world.
Archbishop Manning, in a letter dated
November 10th, to the Herald, asserts
that he assisted in framing the Vatican
DEGREES, which have not changed one jot
or title the obligations Of civil obedience
that Catholics bear towards the civil
powers, and in proof thereof asserts that
the doctrine of Iufallibility was divine
trust before the Vatican Council was
held; that the Council announced no
new dogma, but simply declared an old
truth; that the position of Catholics in
respect to civil allegiance is precisely as
before; that the civil power of the Chris
tan world hitherto stood in peaceful re.
lations with the Infallible Church, and
these relations were afterward recognized
and declared in the Councils of the
Church before the Vatican Council, and
that Council made no DEGREES in regard
to civil power nor civil allegiance, this
subject being never proposed. The
Archbishop says: "Civil obedience rest
on natural laws. Revealed truth is TIL

The New York Republic remarks that
President Grant says the Civil Rights
Bill, as it passed the Senate, was one of
the chief causes of the Republican de-
feat. The President might trnthfully
have added that the Gag Bill was another
stumbling block, besides good many
other matters that are not at all difficult
to point out. The fact is that there were
plenty of causes. The question is now
in order, whether the leaders of the party
will do anything to avoid similar catas-
trophe in 1876.

DEMOCRATIC PROSPECTS.

The New York Herald is most skllful
in detecting the vibrations of the popular
pulse and ascertains with keen prescience
the channels in which the popular will is
likely to flow. In its issue of the 10th
inst, it makes diagnosis of the political
situation. and as the results of its labors
come TO the conclusion that a term of
power is possible for the Democrats, ii
they lay down this maxim at the start, |
and faithfully adhere to it, and that Is
mo reputation; no secession" and 1t
might have added. no interference with
the right of suffrage now possessed by
the negroes. With these cardinal prin-
ciples properly and honestly carried out,
coupled with forbearance and the strict
est integrity. it is possible as the Herald
says, that the Democracy may again en-
ter upon fresh lease of power. But
there must bs no faltering in the difficult
path which they must necessarily pursue.
They will have to put away prejudice and
passion, and call the elearest, ablest and
wisest intelects, that are within their
ranks to the conduct of affairs. The Re-
publican press and leaders say, and say
truly, that it is great deal easier to find
fault than it is to execute. There is no
doubt about that. There is also as little
doubt that the carping and fault finding
is one of the safeguards Of the country.
II it were not for that, there would be no
means of detecting and exposing the
short comings of politicians and
:, the history of the Republi
;, can party affords an excellent
/. example of how rapidly political leaders
= go astray, il they are not held in theil
proper course and checked by the lasl
OF public opinion and criticism. The
/, Democrats in that respect must not ex.
pect to fare any better than their oppo-
nents. All their doings will be keenly
watched and mercilessly dissected, in the
hope of finding some gangrenous spot
which can be made the means OF effect
ing their expulsion. To defend them
selves from these attacks, the Democrats
have only one path to traverse, and that
= is the straight one. They must not di.
verge for an instant. They must show
= that they are really DESTROYS of legislatine
for the whole country and the whole peo
Pile without regard to sectional prejudi
ces or byGpne differences. They must
/ not only Show that they are willing but
able to do this. Their task before them
= is no childs play and will tax the pow
ers of their wisest leaders. Upon the
{ great questions of restoring good govern
y ment and prosperity to the South,
r finance, tariff, subsidies and other i'm.
portant matters, they must utter no un.
/ certain sound. They will have to acl
on Davy Crockett's maxim: ascertain
the right and then go ahead. In the de.
: termination of what is the right will be
the difficulty, and if they allow any mere
partizan considerations to sway them,
they will never find or pursue it. II
they do not, they need not please them.
