proves that increased supply forces it

like causes will produce like results
in anthony. For public information
we present some facts which may be
interesting.
Anthony is in most ores combined
with lead, silver, gold, copper, etc.
It's chief uses at present are as fol-
lows: About one-fourth part is mixed
with lead, tin, etc, in making type
metal, to which it imparts hardness.
It has the property Of swelling little
on cooling. and this makes q more per-
feet copy of the mould. Anthony is
an essential ingredient in Rabbit met
al, to make anti-friction surfaces. 1t
makes bronzing for plaster casts.
papier-mache ornaments, etc. 1t
makes a coating for all metals, and
for copper wire, to prevent TEEN from
oxidation. For electroplating and
similar purposes, it forms one pole OF
the electric battery. The British Gov
eminent now uses anthony to in
crease the hardness of shot and bull.

by combining other metals with it.
Antimony is popular cosmetic. and
also medicine in use among physi-
clans Of every school. 1t is also an

THE Y CLERGYMAN,

Mr.. Abner Clopton, an excellent cler-
gyman employed by John Randolph, OF
Roanoke, to preach to his negroes, was in
the habit Of giving out a hymn in the old
fashioned way, two lines at q time. One
Sunday, while thus sslining'' the hymn,
which was Justify sung by the negroes, the
preacher observed a man put his foot,
upon which was a new brogan, on the hot
stove.
Turning towards him, he, said, in his.
measured voice, You rascal, rot you'll
burn your shoe.'' AS this was a rhyme
Of the exact metre OF the hymn, the negroes
all sung in their loudest tones. Smiling at
the error, the preacher attempted mildly to
explain, by saying, My colored friends,
indeed you are wrong; I didn't intend that
for the song" there it was in again, another
rhyme in good measure, SO the negroes, sung
that too in pious fervor. Turning to his
congregation, the preacher said, somewhat
sharply, Il hope you will not sing that
again until have had time to explain - but
this only aroused the negroes, who a the
last words with increased vigor.
Mr.. Clopton, feeling that his tongue seem
ed to be turned to rhyme, abandoned all ef-
forts at 'explanation and went on with his
service.

TRUE LOVE NOT THE FASHION.

The country never possessed so many
beautiful and m~arIiageble young women as
it does at the present time. And why do
we not have more marriages? We answer:
Because marriage for love is the exception
and not the rule. The young people OF this
age have gone fashion and m%oney-mad. Ii
the d~andy'bank clerk, who pays one-half for
his income for board and the other half for
clothes cannot improve his condition, he
will not marry. The shop-girl who earns
good wages and cannot be distinguished by
her dress from the bankers daughter, GER
tainly will not plunge into matrimony I'M
less she can better her condition in life. If
a man is fortunate enough topossess money,
it matters not how old and ugly he may be,
hundreds of intelligent, handsome young
women can be found only too willing to be-
come his wife. Love is and after considera-
ton. The marry to be supported and dressed
~extravagantly. How often do we hear the
remark. Better be an old mans darling
than a poor mans slaven Alas. too many
of them are not satisfied to be darlings.
They will persist in loving: other men after
they are married.
It cannot be denied that a. great number
