THE Saba TIL.


Fresh glides the brook and blows the gale,
Yet yonder halts the quiet mill;
The whirling wheel, the rushing sail,
How motonless and still
Six days of toll, poor child of Cain,
Thy strength the slave of want may be-
The seventh thy limbs escape the chain
A God hath made thee free
All, tender was the law that gave
This holy respite to the breast
To breathe the gale, to watch the wind,
And know the wheel may rest
But when the waves the gentlest glide,
What image charms to light thine eyes
The spire reflected on the tide
Invites thee to the skies.
To teach the soul It's noblest worth,
The rest from mortal toll is given;
Go snatch the brief reprieve from earth,
And pass-a guest to Heaven.
They tell thee in their dreaming school,
Ofpower from old dominion hurled,
When rich and poor with juster rule,
Shall share the altered world.
Alas since time itself began,
That fable hath but fooled the hour
Zach age that ripens power in man
But subjects man to power.
Yet every day in seven, at least
One bright republic shall be known
Mans world while hath surely ceased,
When God proclaims His ownl
Six days may rank divide the poor,
Dives, from thy banquet hall
The seventh the Father opens his door,
And holds His feast for all

An Adventure with Wolves.

BEING cutler in the employ of Messrs.
McLarcn & Co., on the Gatineau River,
set out on the morning of the both of Feb
ruary, in company with two Indians, to
ascertain if any trespasses had been COM
mitted on limit owned by that firm, the
said limit being northeast of the Gatineau
River, and running parallel with the Dui-
eyre. The district is remarkable only for
its mountainous character, the range being
called Mont Diable, or DEVILS Mountain.
| took my horse along with me so long as
beaten track enabled me to do so, when
l tied him up and continued the journey
on snow-shoes. We had gone only about
four miles when one of the Indians, a
very cunning and experienced hunter, sol
EMMY warned me to turn back, as there
were unmistakable indications of wolves
being in close proximity, but, not needing
the voice of the dusky son of the forest,
made up my mind to keep on my way, as
it is principle of mine never to look
back until my work is accomplished. On
the present occasion, however, my con-
tempt for the prophetic words Of the
Indian came near costing me dearly. APP
preaching the foot of the mountain, be-
held full in view, and only short dis
lance away on small eminence, pack
OF wolves, twenty-seven in number, de-
vouring the remains of deer. This was
rather an unpleasant position to be in, and
the only recourse for safety was retreat or
to climb tree. The former decided on
without much delay, but on turning about

An Unpleasant Predicament.

The monotony of the times in these
an adventure of startling, serious conse-
quences. A man called Morton deter
mined to cross the river at that time in
rather novel manner. The back water
covered the country for miles on the east
side of the river and in places the water is
quite deep. The cold snap had CONCEALED
the snow so as to have the appearance of
thick ice and on which our hero con
cluded to cross. So, armed with carpet
bag and revolver, he set out for " Bare
toot' alone. He moved along briskly I'M
til he was out OF sight of all save the ON
nipresent One, but unfortunately, as he
penetrated the thick woods he found to
his sorrow that the ice adhered to the tim
Der while the water left it, and the heat of
the sun had rendered it brittle CON
ward,n however, was his watchword, and
onward he went, until he found himself
plunging in water little deeper than he
was able to keep his head out of. Here
he threw away his carpet-bag and revolver
and climbed upon some drift, which en-
abled him to reach shallow water, where
he could wade. He wadcd about until he
reached Bear Creek ridge, about one mile
and half from New Massillon. This ridge
had about two acres out Of water and the
only other inhabitants at that time were
two wild deer. Our hero rested on terra
frn1d here, undecided what was the best
course for him to pursue. To proceed
was impossible, for Village Creek and
some miles of overlooked country were
yet to cross, while to retrace his steps was
equally hazardous. So he concluded to
remain where he was and make the best
possible use of his lungs in cries for aid
His cries were heard in every direc-
ton; but the icerendered the use of water
crafts impossible, and no one could 90 to
his relief. In this state of suspense and
real suffering Morton kept up his cries
for three days and nights, when Esquire
johnson, of New Massllon, determined
to go to his rescue. The ice having
mostly thawed out, he was enabled to car
ry out his determination to a successful
completion. He reached the ridge with
skitf, and found the indiscreet young
man unable to walk, having been there
from Saturday morning until Tuesday
evening, being wet all the time. His feet
were badly frozen ON Saturday night
Mr.. johnson got him into his skiff and
took him to the village, where he was
cared for, and there are fair prospects that
he will recover and be able to tell to others
the folly of attempting to cross the water
on ice stuck to trees with the water several
feet below.-Albion (N. " Journal.

What Disease Have II

HCT often do VIC hear this question asked
by persons suffering from dizziness and pain
in the head, with dull, stupid feeling, pain
in the side, back or shoulder, n heavy load
on tie stomach after eating, faint, all-gone
sensation at the pit of the stomach that food
does not satisfy, a col /, clammy feeling in
the hands and feet, wiGh hot flashes at times,
bad taste in the mouth, with foul breath,
attended with great depression of the nerv-
GUS system and evil forcbodings, and with a
tired weakness that sleep don'treleve, urine
scanty at times, with a sediment after stand
ing. One physician calls the disease liver
complaint, another kidney disease, another
dyspepsia, and still another impurity of the
blood. But none succeed in effecting cure.
The fact Is that these symptoms indicate
that all of these diseases are present to-
gcthcr, and to remove these symptoms we
must take a rem 3dy that will act upon all of
these organs at once. The best article that
VIC know of is made by the Shakers, and is
called SHAKER EXTRACT OF RooTs, OR CURA-
TIVE SYRUP Cnot a patent medicine). Sold
