From bearded lips, this cry Of deep despair.

A Voice rings out through all the passing
ages:

Is echoed back-a womans bitter moan.
And yet from Palestine the words are ringing,
"In pain and sorrow life hath its beginning:
But when the hour is passed" proclaims the
Voice,
"a man is born, the woman shall rejoice.
Ay, "One more mouth to feed' All. tell me
why,
Why rises up toward heaven this bitter cry?
Shall triumph greet the babe that needs must
perish,
Whose feeble life there is no food to cherish?
Mans royal heritage since time began
Is wrestled from him by the wrath Of man.
Not 80 One more mouth to feed ~ rang out that
morn
When heavenly hosts proclaimed: "The Child

A Change of Life.

About six years ago two robbers lying
in wait in a ravine near Nashville, Tenn,
accosted Mr.. Demsey Weaver, took him
from his buggy, gagged and tied hnn,
carried him into dense thicket, robbed
him of SIS, and left him to free himself
as best he could. BY desperate exertlon
he freed himself. One of the robbers
was arrested and identified, and subse-
auently the other was captured. Both
men were convicted and sentenced to ten
or fifteen years imprisonment. Some
time after he was sent to the penltentlary,
one became a class leader in the. convict
Sl1ndav.sclool, and seemed determined
20 lead better life. Just before Christ
mas. 1875, friends of the reformed con-
vict applied to Mr.. Weaver for his ac-
ouiescence in the pardon of the man that
Christmas Mr.. Weaver consented, and
the convict that Christmas morning
walked out of the prison doors free
man. He desired to see Mr.. Weaver for
the purpose of asking his forgiveness for
the rough manner in which he had treat
ed him, and to return the money OF
which they had robbed him, with inter-
est. Mr.. Weaver being sick at the time,
his son went to see the convict, who
made the same proposition. But the
money was refused, and nothing more
has been heard of the man until short
time ago, when it was ascertained that ne
had become a pastor of a church and
was leading pious, useful h1e. IL IS
said that this reformed convict received
his education at Bethany College, and
was really man of much mental capa-

4 Poor Constable.

Stunewall Jackson, at sixteen, was
constable OF the county of Lewis, Va,
with his uncle Cummings Jackson &s his
security. The first execution that c"!na
under his hands vas against a witlow !lv-
ing some twelve miles from the court
house. Jackson summoned; a man named
Charlie Post to accompany him and to
assist him in driving away the cattle
which he proposed to levy upon. When
he arrived there he found that the Old
woman had but one COW. the principal
means Of her support. SO soon as he
learned this he turned h. his companion
anl said: "Charlic. | will not Icy this
execution upon Shat poor wonla1l's COW;
as poor as I am would rather work
night and day and pay the debt myself.' y
Upon that he left there and stated the
facts to his uncle, his security in lis Off
cial bond. He listened to his narrative
and then said: "Tom, I see you were
never born to be constable, my boy;
resign your Office at once and will pay
the execution"

Thoughts for Saturday Night.

The true man is the happy man.
There will be ever a place for virtue.
Character is perfectly educated will.
Times chariot wheels make their road
in fairest faces.
In the commerce of speech use only
coin of gold and silver.
The greatest truths are the simplest;
so are the greatest men.
Born, lived and died, sum up the great
epitome of man.
One must do more when one is old
than when one is young.
Love is the ladder Oh which We climb
to the likeness of God.
They who have light in themselves
will not revolve as satellites.
Some good, loving, self-sacrifcing
deed will transform the homeliest face
into beauty and sanctity.
A little management may often evade
resistance, which n vast force might
vainly strive to overcome.
Pleasure, like quicksilver, is bright
and shy. If we try to grasp it, it still
eludes us and still glitters.
They who do speak ill of themselves
do 80 mostly as the surest way of PROV
ing how modest and candid they are.
Things right in themselves are more
likely to be hindered than advanced by
an injudicious zeal for promoting them.

A New Court.

Senator Wright's bill, in the United
States Senate, presented some weeks ago,
looks to the settlement of the Presidential
question by the establishment of court to
decide all such contests as that now pend
ing. The bill provides in substance that
=" the court shall consist of the chief JUS
tice and six judges of the circuit or dis
trict courts Of the United States, to be
elected by the said chief justice from
those of different political parties, and
who shall not be interested in the p:rtic-
ular contest, nor in any manner related
thereto. The court shall meet in Wash
ington and the chief justice shall preside.
Before acting the judges shall take a
special oath for the occasion. The court
shall have power to make and enforce all
regulations not contrary to law. The
court shall have power to allow amend
ments to pleatGngs, but there shall be no
unnecessary delay in the hearings. Each
of the judges shall have power to admin
lister oaths, and the court shall have
power to send for persons or papers and
enforce attendance. A majority shall be
competent to decide all questions and
shall keep a record"

A Wicked Enemy.

The wickedest and most audacious fish
of all that preys on the oyster is the
drumish. When he lights on an oyster
bed he isn't satisfied with eating the i'll
side, but chews the oyster shell up also.
He is a great, coarse fish like sleeps
head, and has big teeth. He mashcs an
oyster up the same small boy eats pea
nuts. Drumfsh come in schools, and
Princes bay is their tavorite resort, East
river aid the bays in the sound being
comparatively free from them. They
don't come every year, and it is five
years since large school pail itsrespects
to Princes bay. They make noise like
a drum, and large school feeding would
beat drum corps. When they have
gone through an oyster bed they will
tackle the bottom of an oyster schooner,
and eat the barnacles off. Drumfsh pay
their visits generally in the months of
September and October. They have de-
stroyed hundreds Of thousands of dollars
worth of oysters in years gone By. In
two weeks one firm lost $1,000 worth of
oysters through them.

"No One Nan Can Stealee AL"

Cinnamon evidently believe in the
cynical idea that virtue in woman and
honesty in man do not exist as princi
pie. Their loose morality and distrust-
full natures are evidences of this belief.
An attorney of San Francisco had
claim of 81 200 against large Chinese
mercantile house on Clay street. They
acknowledged the note and seemed anx-
ious to pay it; but on being told to call
from day to day, the attorneys faith be-
came somewhat shaken in Chinese hon
esty. On every occasion he noticed that
messengers were dispatched, each bring
ing man, until five or six were assem-
bled, somewhat resembling bacl1room
caucus where campaign states are manu-
factured. In answer to IN inquiry, the
attorney was told that the firm consisted
of seven members; there were seven
locks on '',e safe, each lock opened with
a differe = key, and that each of the
seven me;nbers of the firm had Il key.
The safe could not be opened unless the
seven members with their seven keys
were present; and it was about as diff
cult to got those seven Cinnamon tog"th-
er at one time as it was to get a meeting
of the Lick trustees. This vigilance
over each other was to prevent any men,
Der of the firm from stealing the CON-
pany's funds and going to the springs, or
rs one of them plainly put it: NO one
man can stealee all.

their young women. But the big In
dams of Long Island turned up their
noses at these damsels, and they de-
parted.
Until about thirty years ago this tribe
used the ancient thatched lodges. The
last of these was burnt ct that time, with
its occupant, Mary Tut, who. was over
eighty years old. Their homes are now
small, one and two story peaked roof
clapboard houses. The tribe dressed
in the traditional blanket up to ten years
ago. They own no boats but fishing
smacks. There is only one basket maker
among them. One woman, Kitty Wal
ker, still carries the "back basket "a
long, narrow wicker affair, supported
by a strap passing around the forehead.

A GhaStlY Record.

The New York Herald's special report
of deaths from unnatural causes in that
city is one which calls for more than Or
dinary attention. During 1876 more than
n thousand persons died from violence,
and there is an excess of more than
hundred over the similar record of 1875.
A peculiar feature of this exhibit is that
the increase is due to accidental causes;
the increase of deaths from sunstrokes
and drowning more than account for the
total excess over last years casualties.
In spite of law and precaution the hid
eous roll of homiciles and infanticides is
as large as 1875, and that of suicides is
considerably greater. The increase Of
hydrophobia is alarming, five deaths
having occurred, against none last year

Business PrOspects for 1877.

The New York Financial Bulletin
says: We enter upon 1877 with this
backing in our favor. 1t comprises
several facts First. 1t is reasonable to
assume that the process of wedding out
insolvent firms has been well nigh COM
pleted for although the failures of the
first nine months were unprecedented III
number and amount, yet during the last
quarter there has been marked abate-
ment, and it is very generally taken for
granted that, in the nature of the case,
this declension will be continued. Sec
ond. The clearing out of large number
of firms who, for the most part, have
been competing for business in an
illegitimate way, leaves the better chance
for those who remain. Third. We have
had generally good crops during the past
year. Fourth. Prices of merchandise,
after protracted and very severe de-
cline, appear to have touched bottom.
At least it may be said of the general
range of articles that not only are they
no longer declining, but, on the con.
trary, show decided steadiness and in
some cases an upward tendency. This
is important not only as implying that
the reactionary tendency that set in with
the panic has about exhausted itself, but
also because it lays basis for confidence
in handling commodities. It may be
that the process of decline has not yet
eliminated in respect to real estate, and
the same may be true in respect to n
class of products least essential in the
general consumption of the country !;
this remains to be tested but, in respect
to the more staple articles which con-
stitute the bulk Of our commerce, this
position may be maintained with ap-
parent safety. Fifth. As rule, the fall
in wages appears to have reached the
lowest point of depression this may be
inferred from the fact that. for some
months past, we have ceased to witness
reductions Of this kind. The Importance
of this fact is that basis has been
reached upon which commodities can be
produced cheaply enough to meet the
diminished purchasing ability of the
community, which is one Of the first
conditions precedent to revival Of pro-
uuCClVe OpeIdIlOllS. DlAtll. CVoShS VI
merchandise are generally in very low
condition. Even if this were not COM
monty reported to be the case, we might
safely infer it as an inevitable conse-
quence of the state of things existing for
the last three years. Nor does this rule
apply to mere mercantile stocks. In all
the households and wardrobes of the
country there is comparative exhaus-
ton of accumulated supplies. In our
productive establishments, factories,
workshops, etc., there has been three
years of postponement of renovations
and requirements of machines, tools and
instruments ; and on all our railroads
also the old appliances have been used,
as far as possible, in lieu of introducing
new ones. This process of using the old
instead of procuring the new cannot well
be carried much further. There comes a
point at which necessity compels re-
placement that point is being reached !;
and, once its demands begin to be re-
sponded to, very important stimulus to
all kinds of industry must result.

Why NoT.-"Why should not boys be
taught to cook as we'll as girls? A hus-
band who understands how to bake,
broil, stew and boil is real treasure in O
household, however accomplished his
better half may be in the same direc-
tion." Why not make him baby tender
also? Let his development in house
hold education be complete and SYM
metrical.
