raE KINGS PICTURE.

r1na,a is IN avery human being, however igno
ble. some INIT OF perfection; some one plac
where (as We may fancy, the ven IL thin whlc
hides the divinity behind t.-Co'SueiGn Classics
The King from the council chamber
Came weary and sore of heart;
He called for Hill, the painter,
And spake to him apart
." am sick of faces ignoble,
Hypocrites, towards and knaves
shall shrink TO their shrunken measure,
Chief slave in realm of slaves
Paint me true mans picture,
Gracious and wise and good;
lowered with the strength of heroes,
And the beauty Of womanhood.
IL shall hang in my inmost chamber,
That thither, when retire,
IL may fill my soul with its grandeur,
And warm II with sacred fire."
SO the artist painted the picture,
And u hung in the palace hall;
Never thing so goodly
Had garnished the stately wall
The King, with head uncovered,
Gazed on II with ral { delight,
Till It suddenly wore strange meaning,
And ia ed his Questioning sight.
For the form was his supplest courtier's,
Perfect in every limb;
But the bearing was that of the henchman
Who filled the hagons for him;
The brow was priests who pondered
His parchments early and late;
The eye was wandering minstrel's
Who sang at the palace gate.
The lips, half sad and half mrthful,
With fitting tremulous grace,
Were the very lips of a woman
He had kissed in the market-place;
But the smile which her curves TRANSPORTED
As rose with a simmer of dew,
Was the smile of the wife who loved him,
Queen Ethelyn, good and true.
Then, "Learn, o King" said the artist,
This truth that the picture tells
How, in every form of the human,
Some hint of the Highest dwells;
How scanning each living temple
For the place where the veil is thin,
We may gather, by beautiful glimpses,
The form of the God within"

How She Turned Presbyterian.

Mrs. Magruder will probably leave
Mr.. Hopkins church, and go hereafter
to the Presbyterian meeting DIR.
Hopkins last week had frightful boil
on his leg, and he experienced very Sc
we're pain when he tried to walk. While
he was sitting in his study on Friday,
Mrs. Magruder called and was ushered
into the parlor. The servant went up
the back stairs to tell the Doctor, and
while she was on her way the Doctor
started down the front stairs to get a
drink of water. 1t hurt him so much to
walk up the steps that he concluded to
slide down the banisters on his stom-
ach and so, looking carefully over the
landing to satisfy himself that nobody
was about, he mounted the banisters
and began to descend. The stairs ran
directly past the parlor door, and Mrs.
Magruder was amazed to see the clergy
man descending with great rapidity in
that singular fashion. 1t seems that the
servant had placed coal-scuttle by the
newel-post while she went for the Doc
tor, and as he descended with the awful
velocity he alighted in the scuttle and
fell to the floor. Without being aware
of the presence of the visitor, he leaped
up in a rage, and exclaiming, "Hang
that woman !" gave the scuttle kick,
which sent it whirling into the parlor,
where it brought up in Mrs. Magruder's
lap. OF course she thought the de-
monstration and ejaculation were in
tended for her, and after rising to her
feet and shaking her umbrella at her
pastor. she shouted. "If Won kick an
other coal-scuttle at me I'll punch you
with this yer umbrella !" She emerged
from the front door with the conviction
that Presbyterianism was the only re-
ligion for her.-BOston Globe.

CAGE-BIRDs.-It is estimated that the
canary-bird population of the United
States amounts to 100000 It's num-
bers are increased only through impor-
tation, as the loss by death and other
causes about balances the gain by
breeding. Three hundred thousand
canaries were imported last year. Other
cage-birds in the United State are reck-
oned at 100000. To feed these little
feathered pets, 175, 600 bushels of seed
are required each year. Two-thirds of
this amount is canary seed, the remain
der consisting Of hsmp-seed, rape-seed,
millet, cracked wheat, ETC., etc. The
cost of the whole is more than So, 900, 900.

HAmy1ELD, Novanber 9Th, 1874.
j DuAH Cousin. You aSk me about the
propriety of laboring men removing to
California. As commonplace remarked,
will say that it is great big country
lots of territory-the choice pieces OF
which are in the hands Of farmers or
spectators. As result, farming here
does not pay at the present time. It is al.
most wholly cereal country, and wheat
raising does not pay. Millions OF bushels
are on hand now, for which there is no.
market. We. grow plenty Of fruit, but
that is perishable, and can't be exported.
Laborers' wages here on farms range from
$40 to 90 per month, with board; but
1 man must be skillful teamster or
ploughman to command 30. They pillow
here with gangs-three to four plows fas-
tened together-using six and eight hor-
ses in the team. One who can manage
one Of these teams can command go to 40
per month. Common hands-owing 70
the Chinese, who are very apt at all light
work where no animals are to be handled
can only realize so to $25 per month.
The Chinese are getting rs thick on this
coast as were the locusts in Egypt in
Pharaoh's time.
Iwould not advise any poor man at the
East TO leave go or SIS per month to come
to California. We are situated thus: The
Greeks, Italians, Portuguese and Chinese
10 our fishing; the Portuguese and Chinese
our gardening; Irish girls and Chinese our
housework and washing; the Mexicans
our sheep-herding; the Jews our store
keeping; the Changers our big farming,
and the Americans do our railroading,
boating specializing, banking; ETC., ana,
together with the Irish, talk politics and
hold the Offices.

beEt, and the gentlemen would thus De-
come > henefsctor Qfs the hnaaA sasav -
earn his 5000 year from the General
Government. Let Dc see how much Of
this has been accomplished. During the
first ycarof Nj. Howbcrt's administration
~ agent of this branch Of the &c go Eox
Indians, he was here several months a.
together. In the course a. the past year
he has been here twice, for the purpose
Of paying his wards their annuity, and
aside from that individually he has not
paid any attention to them worthy of note.
Oh! but he will say my son E. p. Howbert
was there looking after their interest.
Yes, that is true and we will speak OF that
after while. We must take into considcra-
ton that Mr.. Howbert SEN, was appointed
to the position of agent because Of his Pc
cuiiar fitness for the position as Mission
ary and civilizer. Now We do not be-
lieve that he ever mastered single SEN
tence Of the Indian language and we are
credibly informed that he never made any
effort to civilize or christianize them
whatever, and from our own observation,
and knowledge 80 know that he never
made any such effort. Although IN ap-
preparation Of $500 has been long since
made by Congress for the purpose Of
building . school house for them, this be-
nevolent missionary has not taken one
step towards having such building erect
ed. The only edifice Of any character
whstcver his man Howbert has been in.
strumental in building for them is small
shanty which we believe they called .
tool house which did not cost at the out
side more than $25. Has the missionary
drawn the $l2c0 which was appropriated
by Uncle Sam for school house: II he
has, it has not been expended forjthat pur-
pose, but is probably portion Of the
Bank Capital in the institution where the
degenerate offspring Of the mighty mis-
sionary now draws salary ~ bank clerk,
while his pay as Indian farmer in Tama
county, Iowa goes on. Civilize and chris
tainize these Indians! Oh yes, certainly;
but he admits that he cannot report much
progress in this direction with but few ex-
ceptions. II there be any exceptions
who have improved in civilization
under the instructions Of this agent
and his cub they have never been brought
to the notice of any one in this locality.
Bosh!he never had any faith in il; We do
not believe in it, and nobody else does,
with such tools ~ A. r. Howbert and
Son at the head of the move. 1t 10 posi-
bic that such thing might be done by
constant effort on the part Of teacher
but we doubt that very much.
For the past year A. r. Howbert has
not been here atall except on pay day, and
then his stav was very short In fact 1t

overthrown In 1872 but revived in 1914. In the
time the Cortes adopted constitution which
declared the Inquisiton to be incompatible with "the
sovereignty aud independence of the nation" and with
personal liberty and the Tribunal OF Faith" pro-
vded for its successor. This the old institution
in a modified form. The bishops restored to their
ancient authority in the apprehension and trial Of
heretics but sentences could be pronounced and
cuted by the civil courts only. This form Of per-
secution established in 1923 and continued
until 1863 The power OF ecclesiastical tribunals

estant proclives, and particularly by marrying
