Words and Power.

We are told that Talma, distinguished
actor. had the power, by an exercise o
will, to imagine his auditory stripped 0
flesh and its adOrnings, and reduced to
skeletons before him. And when his vivid
imagination had thus transformed the liv-
/ ing assembly into a throng Of grizzly,
! death-likc beings, his emotions were such
that they gave his dramatic power an in
tcnsficd force, and enabled him to pro-
ducc effects that mako his name renown-
ed.
/ The emotions that 4 man feels when
speaking will saturatc and color and
warm his words with the very spirit he
himself possesses. Tones and cadenccs
and emphasis will be tinged and swayed
and viviiied with the overmastering feel
ing of the heart surcharged with strong
emotion. But if the speaker be possessed
with Il feeling of listlessness, spiritlcssness,
and Indifference. his speech will llso be
llavorIcss and dull.
Preachers of the unsearchable riches
and salvation of Christ should be nightly
penetrated with the momentous nature of
their message and the condition of their
hearers 1t is not necessary, however. to
try to imagine the auditory to be skeletons.
There are, usually, in every congregation,
dry bones enough to cause Il true minister
to feel many things deeply, without tax
me his imagination for fictitious anato
mics. And if the preachers sermon have
Il uicclcss - skeleton also, there will be
Il crying need for one to pray that the
Spirit OF Life might breathe upon them,
that they might live. But it is necessary
that Il preacher have 4 deep, clear con-
! sciol>nesS of the truth he heralds, and a
sympathetic sym pathos, or so-feeling)
perception of the temptations, the dan
gers. the needs, the possibilities of immor
tai sorrow and eternal joy that pertain to
each of his hearers, in order to affect them
strongly. When Paul saw the city of
Athens wholly given to idolatry, his spirit
was stirred within him. Therefore he
disputed in the synagogue and in the mar
kct daily. and . he preached unto them
Jesus and the resurrection And to one
of the old prophets the word of God was
- - fire shut in (his) bones; 50 that he
was weary. not with speaking but with
torbrariny to speak. VIII II the spirit of
the minister i, pressed and the inncrmost
bo ing is hot with holy fire, then his words
viii be with power.
y word is n >iyn of an idea, 4 symbol
of some mental process OF emotional state.
But withal, they are conventional things,
mere empty .iingle>, unless there BE- 4 soul
imbuing them, :; personal power behind
them. The trained parrot may glibly ut

A Rhode Island Sampson.

There is living in this city a man
quite as remarkable for his muscular
powers as was he who in olden times
bore off on his shoulders the gates of
GAIA. When a youth he was wont to
shoulder a barrel. OF flour with his feet
inside a peck measure. On one occa-
sion on Stevens wharf, as the result of
a banter that he could not shoulder an
anchor weighing $50 pounds, he raised
it to his shoulders, carried it up Ban
nister's wharf, up four steps into the
United States Hotel (west door), car.
ried it through, down step, out of
the south door, down the wharf back
again, and deposited on the scales for
weighing. The distance he carried it
must have been from 800 to 400 yards.
The feat was considered SO remarkable
that it was placed npon the t VIII rec
ords, where it may be seen by any who
NAV be incredulous.
On another occasion half Il dozen
men were Juggling at Il hoeshead of
molasses iyin : on it's bilge. endeavor-
ing to place it on end, when he ordered
them aside and ended it up alone.
Though now 81 years old, he is ready
at any time on Il wager to lift to his
shoulder Il barrel of -four. The same
man Che is All O~ut-aud-out teetotnler
now has been known to stand at the
bar of tue old Park House and drink
thirty-two glasses of liquor without
turning round. On Que occasion he
says that lie and another man, making
''n night OF it," sat down to half Il
barrel of beer and drank it up before
morning. Yet no person ever saw this
man in the gutter, or even sta, ger from
the effects OF his rotations. 1t was his
boast in his younger days that he could
out lift aud out-drink any man in
Rhode Island.

The Empress Eugenie'A Lace Dress,

The lace dress which was manufac-
tured by the Compagpie des Indies, OF
Paris, for the Empress Eugene, and
which is of the lately reviv d old Ve-
netian point, is thus described by a
lady correspondent: "The ex-Em.
press Eugenie's lace dress is the all
observing attraction of the lace depart.
ment. The stitch of which it is made,
you know, was lost for ages, and had
only been re discovered through the
exertions of the ex-Empress OF France
just before her downfall and exile. It
is made up over black velvet, and
and shows to fine effect on that fabric.
The underskirt is in M piece, not
hounced, its design being a heavy seal
loped border of roses and tulips en-
twined with leaves, and interlacing
with another border formed of finer
scallops of forget-me-nots and ivy
leaves. Each large scallop has q medal
lion figure filed with roses, tulips and
forget-me-nots imbedded in an urn of
exquisite workmanship. Another medal
lion semi-encircles this one, and the
two r tied with a true.lover's knot
carried around the whole u%ndersklrt.
This true-lover's knot tying the medal
lions and i%nterlacing W the whole is
considered the gem OF the design. A
square court train of black velvet,
trimmed with lace half a yard wide Of
the same design, covers the back of the
dress. It is formed of two breadths,
which are united in the back with a
shell work of black velvet one-eighth
of an inch wide. This train unites with
an overskirt open in front, with broad
lappels turned back, and faced with
peach colored satin. The corsage and
sleeves of velvet are trimmed with a
bertha and rufaes of the lace. A hand
kerchief and fan in lace of the same
stitch and design accompany this mag
nificent dress, to which no price can
be attached"
