Origin Of .IIe IIa. an Axe to Gr.na."

Franklin says: When I was little boy,
l remember, one cold winters morning,
was sccosted by a smiling man, with an
axe on his shoulder.
my pretty boy" said he, "has your ia
ther grindstone"
"Yes, sir" said I.
"You are a fine little fellow" said he.
"Will you let me grind an axe on it?'
Pleased with the compliment Of "a fine
little fellow" 80 yes, sir" answered; ait
is down in the shop"
"And will you, my man." said he, pat
ting me on my head, "get me little hot
water 3'
How could I refuse? ran and soon
brought kettle full.
"How old are you, and what's your
manner" continued he, without waiting for
a reply. "Tm sure you're one OF the finest
lads that ever have seen. VIII you just
turn few minutes for me2"
Tckled with the hattery, like fool
went TO work, and bitterly did 1 rue the
day. 1t was a new axe, and toiled and
tugged till was almost tired to death. The
school bell rang, and could not get away.
My hands were blstered, and 1t was not
half ground. At length, however, the axe
was sharpened, and the man turned to me
With
snow, you little rascal, you've played
the trusnt; scud to school, or you'll get
itp
Alasi thought I, it was hard enough TO
turn grindstone this cold day, but now to
be called little rascal, was too much. 1t
sunk deep in my mind, and onen have l
thought OF it since.
When see merchant over-polite TO his
customers, begging them to take little
brandy, and throwing the goods on the
counter, thinks 1, that man has an axe TO
grind.
When see man fatteriug the people,
making great professions of attachment TO
liberty, who is in private life tyrant, me-
thinks, look out, good people, that fellow
would set you turning grindstones.
When see man holsted into office by
party spirit, without a single qualification
to render him either respectable or useful,
alas methnks, deluded people, you are
doomed for season to turn the grindstone
for BOBBY.

LOSING BUTToN.-Walter Scott tells
the story Of boy who was with him in
school who always stood at the head OF his
class. 1t was the custom of the scholars TO
change places in their classes according to
failure or success in recitation; but though
Walter was number two, he never could
get to the head because this boy never
missed. But Walter noticed that he had
habit when puzzled by hard question, Of
twirllng button on his jacket, and this
seemed to help him think out a right an
swer. Walter, more through mischief,
than any worse motive, cut of the but
ton slyly one day to see If it would make
any difference. The lesson was spelling
lesson, and several boys at the foot missed
a hard word. 1t came round TO the head.
The boy instinctively put his hand to the
button. 1t was gone. He looked down to
find II, grew confused, missed the word,
and Walter went above him. The boy new
er got to the head again, seemed TO lose his
ambition, settled down into second rate
scholar and never accomplished much in
life. Walter Scott declared that he often
suffered sharp ronorse at the thought that
he possibly spoiled the boy for school and
for life by cutting of the button that had
done such good service.

DIR. McCosh, President of Princeton Col
lege, has written long communication TO
the New York World combating the po-
siton Of those scientific men who maintain
that the idea of personal Creator is not
necessary in accounting for the develop
ment of the earth and its occupants. We
are inclined 10 think that the class OF men
referred to is mostly imaginary. Tie
champions of the theory of evolution do
not in general hold this position, and Pro-
fessor Huxley, in his recent lectures in
New York, explicitly declared that he
dealt only with the order and succession of
development in nature and not With its f.
nal cause. Because study of nature re-
flutes the hypothesis that the world was
created in its present condition by fiat of
the Almighty, and shows that it has been
built up by process of evolution which
may be traced back through long ages, and
because speculation carries this process
back until it resolves all the universe into
mass Of vapor which contained the po-
tency of every form OF life, it does not by
any means follow that creative Being is
an unnecessary conception.
The theory of evolution, SO far from
eliminating the Creator from his universe,
makes his constant presence appear all the
more necessary. 1t is just as difficult TO
conceive that matter in its most primitive
nebulous form should exist and be endow-
ed with forces that set it going upon pro-
cess OF evolution through which the sue
cessiye stages of development were attain
ed, including the appearance OF constantly
improving forms of life, without an intelli-
gent designer and director, as to conceive
that the world should have sprung into be-
ing all at once without q Creator. The
work Of creation has been going on for un-
told ages, and is, perhaps, not yet COM
plele. From the beginning there have
been evidences of design and Of method
which exclude the idea of chance, or the
mere operation OF force upon matter. Take
the evolution theory in all its breadth and
depth, and it seems to US that it involves
the necessity of a constant intelligent pres
sure to supply that unknown and unknow-
able element without which we cannot ac-
count for anything. We may show the or
der of development and prove that there
have been no sudden sPas.ns of creative
energy, but that does not account for the
wonderful processes which we are study
ing. We may say that they come from the
steady operation of natural forces upon
matter, but yet the origin of those forces
and that matter and the direction of theii
operation TO the production OF results
which we trace are unaccounted for. We
must, after all, fall back upon a Creator
and we marvel more and more at His in
finite wisdom and The perfection OF His
| plan of creation, the more we study His
handiwork. Old and crude conceptions o.
His methods may be displaced, but belle
in His existence is just as necessary to al
understanding of evolution as to compre
hension of Millions theory of the creation

DIPHTHERIA AND ITS CURE.-A small
quantity of either sulphate OF iron, lannin,
or chlorate Of potash, put dry upon the
tongue, and allowed TO dissolve there, once
in every hour, have all been found to be
most efficient remedies in the early stages
of diphtheria. This terrible disease ap-
pears under three varieties or forms: 1st,
There is fever, severe pains in the back,
bones and limbs, aud very great prostra-
ton, there may be no soreness of the
throat, but, on examining 1t, small white
specks will be noticed on the tonsils, but
few or none on the rest of the throat. These
cases will recover under any and every
variety of treatment in four to six days.
The great, but false, reputation of many
remedies and physicians is based upon the
necessarily favorable results of these cases.
I'd, Large patches of false membrane will
be observed, both on the tonsils and back
of the throat; but the glands of the neck
do not become swollen. The majority of
these cases will also recover under very
simple treatment, unless the disease ex-
tends down 10 the wind-pipe, which it
rarely does. Sd, True malignant diphthe-
ria, with swelling of the glands of the neck
and under the jaw; profuse and oflen Of
fensive exudations in the mouth and thoat |;
more or less discharge from the nostrils.
Chlorate of potash is a disinfectant as we'll
as a curative remedy, and, if given pure
and dry upon the tongue, every hour,
night and day, will rarely disappoint the
practitioner. A small dose, every night,
may act as a preventive remedy. Some
times tannin may be given more readily
than the chlorate of potash. The sulphate
of iron is rather more irritant, and must be
given in smaller quantities. The main
poi nls in the use of these remedies are to
give them dry upon the tongue, and ire;

Autumn.

Autumn.
They have come-the Autumn days,
When the red sums chastened rays,
In the wood
Glimmer bright on shade and hue
That the Summer never knew,
And they pierce the thicket through
Where stood
In the Spring, content to greet
All the beauties at my feet,
And to stay,
Never caring what beside
Natures verdant veil might hide
Far away.
Ali the view ia clearer now;
Dead, the tendril on the bough,
Sunk, the veil.
And the ocean ia in sight,
Spreading gloom, and flashing Light,
Where the sun will sink at night
Dim and pale.
1t had come-the Autumn time;
Passed the Summer and the prime
OF my days.
Careless I, Of Joys or fears,
For the sod was dank with tears;
withered fell the hopes Of years
In my gaze.
when the magic Of thy love
Let the sun in from above,
Soft and bright,
And saw with altered mind
That the Autumn, too, was kind
In its light.
For, just as a brighter sheen
Glorines the passing green
OF the leaf,
And the vistas opening clear
Let the wider scenes appear
Free from grief,
30 might II be in life,
when the glory and the strife
OF its June
Had shed their flowers and fruits,
From pure or poisoned roots,
Late or soon.
We may md grander view,
with a wider passage through
To our rest.
And that love which blossoms last,
When passions dream is past,
Is the best. Temple Bar
