Declenslons and COnluuations.

Miss S., an American heiress
and quite beautiful, has been exciting
much admiration in London during the
present season, and is about to marry,
it is said, the son of nobleman con-
nected with the royal household. Amer
lean heiresses are by no means Stunned
abroad; quite the contrary, for they are
generally as well educated and in every
way as presentable as their foreign sis
ters, and do not accept the first impecu-
nious scion of nobility that has coro-
net about him. Some years ago the
daughter of an American minister in
London.was much sought after by patri-
clan youngsters. She was one day dis
covered writing letters, and observed,

London is good enough place for fir
tations, but l mean TO coVu9ate at

they In reality contained the advice
which the eccentric old gentleman had
said, II rightly followed, would ensure
him success. f
Look up! Surely man formed In the
image of his Maker, should not, like the
beast that perisbeth, cast his eyes upon
the earth. Even when bowed down
by misfortune, he should strive TO look
upward to the light which may yet illu-
mine his path.
These thoughts had crowded forcibly
upon this mind and they were confirmed
by a conversation with Grace, who, re-
| leased from the confinement of the school
bounded joyously into the garden, where
her father was busted with some vines
and throwing her arms around his neck,
told him that he must smile on her
cheerfully as he used to do, for she had
good news for him.
" You deserve to be smiled upon, in
deed, my sweet child" he replied, gaz-
ing fondly upon her animated counte-
nance; but what good news have you
for me?"
" One of the young ladies who attend
our school asked me to-day if my father
was in want of a situation as clerk, and
when | replied in the affirmative, she
said that her uncle requested him to call
at his office tomorrow morning. Here
is the number, 1873 Water street." she
continued, handing her father slip of
paper containing the street and number.
''There may be something yet in store
for me, Grace"
Indeed there may dear father. Only
think how well our school is succeeding.
The income from that alone could afford
us comfortable support. Our heavenly
Father is always near to help us in the
hour of need"
Heis, my daughter, and blessed are
those who look up to Him for help"
The heart of the strong man was bow
ed, and his voice trembled with emotion.
Tears of ready sympathy stood in the
eyes of Grace as she whispered:
"Your heart will no longer be sad,
dear father. You will smile upon us
once more"
Pray for me, my child. The dark
shadow has long been upon me; but,
with the help of God, / will no longer
be cast down. Even if this new OPEN
ing proves delusive, will not be dis
couraged, will look up"
With cheerful countenance, and a
step which fell musically upon the ear of
his wife, bringing to her remembrance
the days gone by, he descended to break
fast the following morning, and at an
early hour, was on his way to the city.
AS he entered the office, answering to
the number upon the paper given him
by Grace, he was met by the same be-
nevolent old Quaker who had proffered
his advice on former occasion.
swell, my friend" he exclaimed, ex-
tending his hand. 81 am glad to see
that thou hast followed my advice and
learned to look up. have a situation
now at my command where thee can OBJ
tain good salary, and without working
harder than is fitting for man at thy
time of life. The best remedy for man
who is going down hill is, to look up.
When earthly hopes fail, there is still
hope in heaven"

think they do. But ones perfect

THE WAR THAT IS BEG UN
CFrom the New York Wo

From the New ork World.
About July 20, 1875, broke out
a rebellion in Herzegovina, the
alleged cause being the expressed
determination of the Turkish Off
cials to enforce the payment of
taxes and arrears by the Slavic
Christians. The revolt speedily
spread to Bosnia, and was so forlni-
dable by the 22d Of August that
the Russian, French, Austrian and
English governments invited the
Porte by collective note to ex
anime into and redress the wrongs
complained Of by its subjects, Tie
Servians Immediately afterward
placed 10000 men in the field, a
menace promptly followed by the
Sultan s raising of large forces and
calling to the Viziership of Nah
nloud Paeha, recognized cham,
pion OF absolutism. The Sultan
declined any meditation by foreign
powers till his rcbellious subjects
had yielded, though he guaranteed
reforms which they were not willing
to accept as a sufficient pretcxt for
disarmament. The foreign powers
then presented the Andrassy MEM
orandum, prepared in the name of
the three Emperors, and submitted
to and approved by England,
France, and Italy, asking religious
liberty, customs reform, and a
mixed commission to carry ont. re-
forms in the discontented provinces.
The Sultan accepted it Fehruar,
IL, 1876, but the Turkish popula
tions had become excited, and their
rage found vent in the massacre of
foreign consuls at Salonica, May 6,
and in the Bulgarian atrocities, On
the 11th of May the three Emper~
ors dictated the famous memoran-
dun of Berlin, which presented the
same facts and conclusions that
were contained in the Andrassv
note, but ended with menace of
intervention if at the end of the
armistice peace had not been
brought about. England had been
consulted III the negotiations and

THE BEST SYSTEM,

The best system of farm culture is

the soil more fertile than before. In

are farming in this way, but more
should do so. The best system con

The question of securing more re-

is one that should be discussed in
oranges and clubs. The causes which

In Borneo, marriages, which gener-

enigmatical courtship peculiar to these
people, ale celebrated with great
pomp and considerable originality
The bride anG bridegroom are conduc-

two bars of ircn, symbolical of the
vigorous and lasting blessings in store
for them. A cigar and a betel leaf.
carefully prepared with areca nut, are
put into the hands of each. One of
the officiating priests advances, waves
two fowls over the heads of the be-
trothed, and in long address to the
Supreme Being. and short one to
the couple. calls down eternal bless
ings on them, implores that peace and
happiness attend the union, and gives
some temporal advice, sometimes of a
character more medical than sanity.
The spiritual part being thus conclu-
ded the material succeeds. The hands
of the affirmed are knocked together
four times then the bridegroom puts
his betal leaf aud cigar into the mouth
of the bride; and thus they are ac-
knowledged welded couple, with
the sanction of their religion. At
later period on the nuptial evening
fowls are killed, the blood caught in
two cups, and from it's color the
priest foretells happiness or misery
Of the newly married. The ceremony
is close! by feast, much dancing,
and noisy muse.

Often do Musc's strains recall to US sad memories
OF some, whose voices once have Joined il those

Awaken echoes in our hearts which "breakng, still

The CERBERUs OF interior Ar
RICA.-One OF the most extraordl-
nary facts revealed to Us by Dr.
Livingston's explorations in Afri-
Ga Is that the high table land of
the interior, with it's rice agricul'
tural resources, its noble flora, its
fine temperature, broad inland
seas, and ineXhaustible stores of
mineral wealth, is rendered all but
impenetrable to civilized nan, GER
rainly beyond all reach of coloni-
cation, by one of the most appa-
rently Insignificant of causes-a
fly. This terrible insect is little
brown, yeliow'striped fly, called
the tse'z, scarcely larger than our
common household pests, but
whose sing is absolutely fatal
So deadly is its poison that it is
said that three or four flies will
kill the largest OK. Soon after the
bite, which gives little or no pain,
staggering ard blindness come on;
the body swells to an enormous
size; the coat turn rough, and in a
few hours follow COMMISSIONS aud
death. And yet this deadly pois-
on, under the effect of which the
horse and OK, the sheep and the
dog, fall as if plague stricken, is
perfectly harmless to man, to wild
animals, to the zig, mule, ass ano
goat. Here is an achievement of
science that would bring glory to
lie discoverer-the discovery Of
some an:idote to the sting of this
venomous fly, which would open
the treasures of Central Africa to
the use of the world.
