REIIGTON AND DOCTRINE

John Hay, in HarpeTs magazine Iof may
He stood before the SsBhedrlmi
The scuwling rabbis gaZed ar hin.
He rocked not OF their praise or blamei
There was no fear, there was no shame,
For one upon whose oaZZleQ EYES
The whole world poured its vast surprise.
The open heaven was far too near
his first days light too sweet and clear
To let him va te his neW-Eained ken
On the hate-clouded face Of nen.
But sim they Questioned, Who art thou2
What hast thou been2 Who art thou now
Thou art not he who yesterday
Sat here and begged beside the way
For be was blind.
For ] ioas blind, Jut noe / see.
He told the story Ger and Ger;
IL was his full hearts only lore;
A prophet on the sabbath day
Had touched his sightless eyes with clay,
And made him see who had been blind.
Their words passed BY him like the wind
Which raves and bowls, but cannot shock
The hundred-fathOm-rOote rock.
Their threats and fury al went wide;
They could not touch his Hebrew pride.
Their sneers at Jesus and His band,
Nameless and homeless in the land.
Their boasts Of Moses and his Lord,
All could not change him By one word.
k5s0ly not sChGt this man may Be-,
Signer or saint; but as for ne,
One hiRg Iknol0, that I an hs
Wa once Das blind, end nolC I see.
They all were doctors Of reuOWn,
The great men Of a famous town,
With deep brOWs, Wrinkled, broad and wise,
Beneath Their wide phylacteries;
The wisdom Of the East was theirs,
And honor crowned their silver hairs.
Ihe man they jeered and laughed to ssorn
Was unlea ned, poor and humbly born;
Bat be knew better far than they
What came to him that Sabbath day;
And what the Christ had done for him
de knew, andnOt the Sanhearim.

THE Moravian missionaries In Thibet
mention this singular custom as Shassa:
Every year the lama community pro-
vide a mar of the lowest class, dress
him up in gOat-skin, with the hair out
side, and a singular head-dress, and
then drive MIN out Of the town to the
river, where they lay on him the sins Of
the whole people. The mar has then
to cross the river, and live in a wilder
ness IN solitude for some weeks, being
abundantly supplied with food during
this season. On his return he receives
many presents from the people. The
disgrace is so great, however, that no
one is found voluntarily to 60 through
the ceremony, except in very rare IN
stances. 1t is a singular analogy to
the scapegoat of the Old Testament

EVA TUoHILL.
London Spectator.


Who's not heard Of Eva Tuohill,
Minister'S purest, prOudest jewel
Queen Of Limerickis lOVely maidens,
Cork c0lleenB and Galway girls
With her slender shape thst's sEimmin'
Like q swan among the women;
With her voice Of silVery cadence
And her crown OF clustering curls:
Eva TuOhml Eva Tuohinl
Sure you Just one glorious jewell
Lit with lovely, flying flashes
From delightful lip 70 brow.
Nov indreEms your eyes they darkle,
Now With Joy they dance n sparklej
Now your cheek is bathed in bushes,
Drowned in dlmpled laughter now.
But your beauty, Eva TuOhill,
Is no opal, false and cruel,
Nor the meteor star, deceiying,
Flashing ruin from above.
MOL but some divinest s~plendOr,
Out Of angels tsar-drOp tender
Crystalled, IN one iris weaving
Faith and Hope and virgin Love.

Special Telegram
Fort MADISON, Iowa, April Is
Some eighteen months ago, a family by
the name Of Oaks lived happily toge-
Their in Green Bay. During the frstOf
the winter Of 1874, they had a board
or, John Gardner, who was treated as
one of the family. In due time the
head Of the family took it into his head
to shake of this mortal coil. The
blooming widow then collected her
funds together, and moved to Fort
Madison, and IN a few days was mar
ried to Gardner, scarcely N month
having passed since the decease of
Oaks. River navigation opened, and the
newly-wedded pair moved to La Crosse.
InabOut month Mrs, Gardner returned
alone, with the story that her hege
lord had deserted her, taking all the
ready cash, and leaving her destitute.
Then news came hat he had died, and
that she was again a widow. Another
man began to pay her attention, and
they were soon engaged, with the day
set for the wedding. But Gardner IN
the flesh appeared laSt week, and de-
sired to continue their former relations,
but she was not IL favor Of reconstruc-
ton. At this he became wrathy, and
declared that if they were married, he
would shoot both Of them. Then fol-
lowed an exciting scene, which ended
in her going to a justice and swearing
her life against him. In the meantime
he departed for parts unknown, and
the gushing grass widow and her in
tended have gone to Burlington topper
manently reside.

The San AHtOHiO Texas Herald tells
this story: Some years ago some emf
grants from Ohio and Illinois settled
in a little town IN this State and o
began to agitate for the erection of a
school-house and the employment Of a
teacher. A. town-meeting was called
to consider the proposition; and one of
the Northerners made a neat little
speech, telling OF the blessings whicq
education had brought with 1t to Ohio
and Illinois. When he had sat down
an old man in the corner arose, gave
the customary hitch to his cordproys,
pushed back his hat a trifle, and an
swered thus: Stranger, up In yer
Ohio State you've got a big peniten-
tiary full of people, h'aint yer? Well,
yer've got larnin' up thar! Up IN yer
Illinois State yer've got a big peniten-
tiary full Of people; yer've got larnin'
thar But I've lived here for thirty
seven years IN peace and hap
piness. I've raised nine boys and
tew gals, and l sleep-perfectly sound
o night, COS l amt fraid any of my
boys II 60 to the penitentiary forfOrg-
IN notes, COS they can't lone Of 'em
write,' Sensation in the audience
and sympathy manifested. Another
of the newcomers then spoke, arguing
in favor Of education; and then a tall,
lank native stood up and made his
/ speech. "See here, mister, amt yoE
the machine MANI" yes" said he,
81 did sell some machines here last
year" "Wa'al, when the wheat got
ripe, all the people went to neighbOr
Johnson's to see how yer mOWin' ma
chine would operate. We got the
tarnel thing int the field, and neigh
Dor Johnson he hitched his young FLY
into the shafts. She alters was a frac-
tiOus c~ritter, and the first thing we
knowed she give a Aounce and caught
| neighbor Johnson's boy Bills leg an
cut IN clean OFF! Manifest sensation.
1 Then, mister, in just about two weeks
yer pardner come round peddlin' wood
en- legs, and neighbOr Johnson had to
buy one OF them ere things. Nice ed
dicated people you arel You under
stand it, you dol Fust you sell the
machines, and then yer pardner he
furnishes wooden legs!' This ended
the matter, and no school-master will
be welcomed in that village for some
time TO come.
