WOMAN has always bore the character
of a ministering angel, and wherever
distress has been prevalent, there she
has always been found ready to do all in
her power to alleviate it. In so good a
cause as affording relief to the sufferers
from the grasshopper plague, we could
find it in our hearts TO endorse almost
any action of sympathetic women, but
we question whether the proposition of
Mrs. Mary Jane Brown, of Maine, who
offers to Eight any woman III America for
800 a side, the gate money to go to the
grasshopper sufferers" will meet with
the&pproval of the general public or the

Lafitte's Hidden Treasures

Some Of our readers will recall the
facts connected with an attempt some
wears ago, made by two printers in a
small sailboat, to reach Enrol Island,
some few miles southwark of the Chan
deleurs, in search of hidden treasures.
A tradition had been handed down in the
family of one of these adventures that
an old negro cook, once employed on
one of Lafitte's vessels, had been wit
ness 10 the secreting of a large amount
of gold on the Chandelier islands.
About five years ago the last of the
brothers in this family, in whom the
possession of the facts We're, started out
singly and alone in q small boat toward
the fatal Enrol Island, and he has not
been heard Of since. The repeated at
tempfs to reach this almost mysterious
land and the many failures have given
occasion for considerable superstitution
on the part OF those who look with awe
upon the UnfathOmable. Time after
time have various parties attempted to
land upon the weird shore of Enrol
Island after secreted treasures of the
bold smUggleT, bUt in every instance
their efforts have been attended with
fatal results.
The stories of the past coming down
to us tell of considerable sums OF Span
sh money having been hid by lieu
tenant under the command of Laitte,
in one of the chain Of islands to the
southwark of the Chandeleurs, but as
yet no proof Of this tradition has b en-
found. We learn that, notwiths anding
all the hazards said to be incident to
this Quixotic pilgrimage, there is party
forming to make another venture after
this seoreted gold. By the 18th of next
mouth three stalwart young men OF our
city propose to dare the dangers of the
deep and the strange spell said to be
resting about this mysterious island,
and, come what may, bring a solution to
this time worn question. Orleans

EUROPE'S PEACE.
The Peculiar Relations OF Russia and
Germany.

Germany.
The alliance of Russia and Prussia,
which has beer siuce the Crimean war
the centre round which Prince Bismarck
formed all his plans, IS not yet on the
point of being dissolved, but it is grad
ually losing it's force. Bismarck felt
that Russia bad been injured by Europe,
harshly treated, outlawed. He knew
that Russia would think of nothing but
the preservation of her Polish provinces
and the revision of the treaty of Paris.
He steadily kept this in view, and il
you study by the light of this single
idea the history of the Polish insurTec-
ton, of the Danish war. of the war with
Austria of the war with France, you
will, 1 believe, hold the thread OF Ger
man diplomacy. The situation is now
different. Russia ia now no longer a sort
of outlaw in Europe, she is perfectly
secure; she has revised the treaty Of
Paris, and herself dictated the terms on
which she would have the revision made.
She is courted not only by Germany,
but by all the powers OF the continent
A Russian princess of great intelligence,
the favorite of her father, has entered
th English royal family. Russia can
choose her friends /; and she may find
that Germany has, perhaps, become too
dangerous neiRhbor. The mOdera-
tion and the personal feeling Of the
Russian czar will, IN all probability,
keep things as they are, and peace is not
likely to be broken for awhile Yet, it
is we'll to study the new directions II
the great political forces. Germany
has abused her victory; she has done
what Napoleon / did in his time and
the whole world is silently protesting
against the despotic temper Of the new
masters of Europe. - Ne1O York Nation.

Selected for Sundays HERALD.
He LOVES US ALL.

How we, poor players on Lifes little stage,
Thrust blindly at each 9th r IN our rage,
Quarrel and fret, yet rashly da to pray
To God to help us in our selfish way.
We think to move Him, with our prayer and
praise
To serve our needs-as in the old Greek days
fight,
With mightier arms the flying foe to smite.
The laughter of those gods pealed down to
men,
For Heaven was but an upper story then
Where goddesses about an apple strove,
And the high gods fell humanity in love.
We own God whose presence fills the sky
Whose sleepIess eyes behold the worlds roll
Whose faithful memory numbers one by one
The sons of men and calls them each His son.
He loves us all-is patient with our sin
Spreads wide His door and bids us enter in
And loves us least when least we love each
other.
How idle, then, to pray for mine or thine,
TO seek for earthly ends the grace divine,
To hope for health in storing W our gold,
That we be warm while other men are cold!
He love us ALL and from His waiting feast
VIII turn away no meanest one, or least;
But all His guests must come in friendly
guiSe,
Since Love, bright angel, guards His Para
disc,
And swift as lightning shuts its cleaning
gate
Against the soul that learns to love too late

The Two Roads.

There is place WHARF two roads
meet. One is broad and smooth, and
leads gently down hill. AT first it
looks pleasant, and has trees to shade
flowers i'll the hedgerows, but by de-
grees the trees become fewer, the
flowers disappear, the road goes down
sleeper and sleeper, so that you find it
harder to turn back; and, at last, If
you go Oil, it becomes straight,
crumbling cliff, and you find out too
late that the road leads nowhere but
to destruction, and you slip or fall
forward and are dashed into the sea
below.
The other road is so narrow that
there is hardly room for two to 60 to-
gether, and it is rough at first and
steep up hill; and for long way you
find few flowers in it; but if you will
only walk on steadily a bit, you will
find it becomes less steep and rough
and there are flowers in plenty, and at
the top of the hill you will see beau
tiful house, with your Father waiting
to welcome you.
The broad road is the road of Selfish
ness; the narrow road is the road of
Goodness. At first it seems easy and
pleasant to be selfish, and hard and
painful to be good. But selfishness
leads to ruin in the end, while good
ness leads up to our Father in Heaven.
