THE RELIGIOUS MOVEMENT.
The revival movement in Brook

that came that Sunday morning.
The ferries from New York were
crowded, the Street ears were loaded,
and every possible public and pm

utmost capacity. The meeting NJ
the Rink was advertised at Ia. No.,
and the building would seat 1000.
AtsIx In the morning think Of thr

900 anxious people waiting the open
ing Of the building. They came IN
street ears, In carriages, In wagons,
on horseback, Ia and on everything
that could carry, and on foot, and
they waited aud waited two long
hours. Finally, the doors opened
aud the frat seven thousand found
seats, two thousand more stood In the
ai.les, and the crowd outside, aug
nienting every minute, stood on
their feet, waiting and waiting, a.
though they expected the roof would
lily Off, or that ia some miraculous
way they would be able to see and
hear Moody and Sankey. Finally
of course they dispersed.

In AN article called out by the loss

IN AN article called out by the loss
of the Ventura, cotemporary makes
the types say: "The sinking of the
British transport, Sarah Sands, with
British regiment standing at ease,
and It's band playing the dead
march while the women and child
rem were all saved, will excite a
thrill cf admiration to the remotest
age" Out of respect for the men,
ory of those noble souls who went
down on board of the steam trans.
port, Birkenhead, this blunder
should be corrected. If instead of
-'Sarah Sands" and "dead marchn
this paragraph had read Birkenhead
and "Rule Britannia" it would have
been substantially correct. A brief
reference to the loss of the Birken-
head in 1852 may prove interesting
to those who have forgotten the par
ticulars. She was British trans.
port and had Az men, mostly re-
cruits, and 166 women and child
rem on board, bound for Cape Town,
where the regiments to which the
men were assigned were stationed.
About 2 O'Clock one morning, when
off the African coast, while all were
below and asleep, the ship struck
hidden rock. The alarm was given,
the drums beat, aud the soldiers
formed on the upper deck, as if on
parade. Word was passed to save
the women and children, and silent.
ly they were assisted from below
and passed into the boats. As soon
as all had been safely placed, the
boats, being filled, put off from the
ship. Some one proposed that the
men should jump overheard and
make tor the boats. "NO !" said the
commander OF The troops, "If you
DO the boats Will be SWainped and
the women drowned ! and the
brave fellows stood motionless. The |
ship was rapidly sinking, the gray |
dawn OF the morning was blotting |
out the stars above them; the deep,
dark sea, was beneath 2ad threaten |
ing to Overwheln them-there was
no escape. Yet not II man Hinched.
Shoulder to shoulder they stood.
The band struck up " Rule Britain
Dia,' and as the ship settled for the |
final pinnge jeu de joie, fired by |
the brave crew, reverberated through
Cbfistendom, to show the world how
brave men can die. Such a story as
this is worth recounting-the exam
pie oi such heroism should never be |
allowed to fade from memory or be |
obscured 10y careless reference.

In your last issue there is call for
remedy for chicken cholera. I give
the following, which will not only
cure, but prevent the disease Hy-
posulphite of soda, 2 ounces; water,
] gallon. Dissolve and put pint of
it IN suitable vessel and let the fowls
drink Of it during the day. When
used up, add another pint, and so on
until the disease disappears. 1t can
also be used as preventative in the
same way, or it can be given to fowls
by mixing up their food, meal, with
some of the solution.
/ send. also, the following recipe for
hog cholera, which is almost infalli-
bic. / have tested it in numerous in
stances. 1t is based upon chemical
and scientific principles. The eombi-
nation is tonic, anti-fermentive. stom-
achic, slightly laxative aud anticid
Hyposulphite Of soda, l 10; bicarbon-
ate of soda, l ID; copperas, ! n; pulv.
ginger, I 10; pulverized May-apple-
root, I 10; water (wsrm), 2 gallons.
Dissolve, and give about quart ofthe
mixture in a bucket Of swill twice q
day to about six hogs. Let me add that
the hyposulphite of soda given alone,
dissolvedin WAFER or in svill. will pre-
vent hog cholera. 1t is highly anti
septic and arrests fermentation Of the
food in the stomach and bowels, and
consequently diarrhes. tItsreputasion
in medicine in catalytic diseases is
worldwide, and why not good in
similar diseases in the lower animals? ?
1t can be obtained by wholesale for
ten or fifteen cents per pound A
pound Of it given every two or three
days win be sufficient for twelve hogs,
and will keep them healthy and pro-
tect them from disease Of all kinds

Father and Mother.

When our parents die, it is as if the
roof over our head were suddenly un-
covered for the winds of heaven to
blow on us as if the strong arm on
which we had leaned had been snapped
asuuder, and we were roughly told to
walk alone. Then Of our parents
loved US as some parents can love- the
mind that most throughly understood
us, the heart that was most wrapped up
in US, the lips that most entirely spoke
of US, the soul that so often prayed
for US, the face that we first learned to
recognize, the voice that we first grew
to obey, the hand we first tried to
grasp, the knee that we FIRST learned to
climb, the cheek we first wished to
kiss, are gone, and will never come
back. We may be in our prime, and
for years past, nay have been bearing
the burden of other lives, yet the
thought that our father aud mother are
really gone, and that we can no more
consult them in our difficulties, nor
confide to them our secrets, nor share
with them our love, makes the heart
sad with deep and abiding sadness,
unless it has grown old in premature
decay.

A Valuable Secret.

IF the anecdote is old, the lesson
of life it bears can never grow
old, any more than can the divine les
sons of the Sermon on the Mount.
1t is related of Franklin that from
the window of his Office he noticed a
mechanic, among number Of others,
at work on house which was being
erected close by, who always appeared
to be in merry mood, and who had a
cheerful smile for every one be met.
Let the day be ever so cold, gloomy
and sunless, the happy smile danced
like sunbeam on his cheerful counte-
nance. Meeting him one day, Frank
lin requested to know the secret of his
constant happy flow ofspirit.
Its no secret, doctor" the man re-
piled. I've got one Of the best wives,
and when | so to work she always
gives a kind word of encouragement
and q blessing, with her parting kiss,
and when / go home she is sure to
meet me with a smile and q kiss of
welcome, and then tea is sure to be
ready; and as we chat in the evening
! End she has been doing so many liz
tie things through the day to please
me that l cannot find it in my heart to
say an unkind word to anybody"
And franklin adds:
What an influence. then, hath wo-
man over the heart of man, to soften
it, and make it the fountain Of cheer
fulness and pure emotions. Speak
gently, then; happy smile and kind
word Of greeting after the tolls Of the
day are over, cost nothing, and 90 far
toward making home happy and
peaceful" ,"

BLACKBERRIEs.
How Fortunes are Made out Of Them.

The agricultural editor of the New
York Tribune writes to the Atlanta
Herald: You can not urge upon your
readers too strongly the value of the
blackberry crop which nature has free
ly bestowed. ! could name men in the
High Point and Salem region Of North
Carolina who have made nice little
fortunes by this trade, and it has car
ried many formerly unknown luxury
into the homes of the poorer classes
of that section. Your paper will not
reach those who should pick the ber-
ries. but it will be seen by the country
merchants and if he will announce
that he will buy blackberries at FIVE
cents per pound, few will commence
this year and more the next, until this
heretofore wasted crop brings into
Georgia hundreds of thousands of
dollars, as it has into North Carolina.
The country merchant can pay for
them in goods on which he makes 25
per cent. profit. Picking and drying
blackberries and selling them comes
nearer getting something for nothing
than almost anything | know Of Al
most every ten-year-old child can earn
its 80 to CD cents per day. They need
but little care in drying, except to be
kept from rain. There is no danger OF
stocking the market. When they fall
little in price, new uses arise for
them. Several men. however, have
gotten badly hurt in trying to corner
them. Thousands and thousands of
pounds are used in making an excel
lent imitation of port wine. i have
not now at hand statistics of the guam
tity shipped from North Carolina, but
/ well remember when. the idea of
drying and selling blaekherries vas
much langhed at there; now millions
ofponnds are sent OF, and pass through
the North Carolina railroad country
just after the drying season :s over.

of worth and ability. Their decisions
are regarded in the light Of justice
and their opinions as the exponents of
patient and laborious thoaght and in
vestigatiou. They are, emphstically,
working men. The amount Of labor
they perform must be fabulous. They
are never idle, and how they withstand
the terrible strains upon their eonsti
tutions is profound mystery. Yet
they toll on, day in and Gay out, from
early to late, and never complain
Some of them begin to show marks of
over-work, and sooner or later they
must succumb to the pressure, Chief
Justice Nicholson is q remarkable
man in many important respects, II
not in every respect. Though the

The newborn Ea1iieh srissoerat
receives, as soon as born. little bed
with hard mattress. From ia earliest
age It Is taken. warmly wrapped, into
the fresh air. After the first ysar. its
meals are reduced to three, and this
rule Is so Interchangeable that no child
thinks of requiring anything more.
After breakfast il remains several
hours in the open air and then sleeps.
Ihe whole afternoon is passed outside.
From earliest childhood. the children
Of the aristocracy have the extremities
clothed IN the warmest weather. Never
are English children infrusted 10 the
care OF young nursery-maid, but to
an elderly, experienced person. under
whose direction they constantly are.
As soon as the young girl goes to
school the carriage of the head and
shoulders becomes an object Of atten-
ton, and under no circumstances ia
she permitted to sit otber-vise tha5
upright. My child grows but once,
says an English mother. and, there
fore, nothing is so importsns as her
physical development" Everything
else can be acquired late. An English
child rises at seven, breakfasts at eight,
dimes at one, sups at seven, and at nine
goes to bed. Until twelve years of
age it passes the greater part of the
day In the open air, with oaly about
four hours mental work. An English
maiden at eighteen is fresh and bloom
ng as rose, with light step and eyes
Deaming with pleasure and fife. ~
Of course: the life OF gay society
lndermines to some extent what the
,arly training has accomplished (; but
he sensible physical education Of the
irst years leaves permanent effects,
md the English woman remains equal
o the duties Of life and the require
nents Of wife and mother. If she
ioes not contiDae perfectly well, she
'etains enough health to every beau
iful.

hair, though silvered, is yet abundant
