The Condition ofour Navy,

TIE '.iinv ing Is the deliberate iudg-
m'sf at admiral Porter, our highest
naval authority, concerning the present
state ofour navy, and occurs In a COM
munication addressed 10 the late secre-
tary of the navy and by him Transmitted
TO Congress:
In case of a war between this nation
and England, the English navy could
batter its way into any of our harbors
and destroy them; and any ordinary
ship in the British navy could blockade
any of our harbors, could keep in G, ary
ship that was there, and keep out every
ship that was on the outside. One sia-
gle vessel of the English navy could
whip everything we have got. Ii is no
exaggei alton TO say that the Infiexible,
for instance, could go through our whole
navy. Our ships might fire at her all
day, and not hurt her. Her people
would go down 10 their dinner quietly
while we were firing AT her. And our
ships could not run away from her, be-
cause she makes her fourteen knots an
hour on measured mile, and the fast
est of our monitors only makes eight
knots

Her First Litcrnry Work.

In an article in Appleton's journal
on the autobiography of Harriet Mar
tineau, the famous ailthorcss, the fol-
lowing account IL given of her first AT.
tempt In the field of literature:
II was at the agc Of nineteen that
Harriet Martincau felt the sensation
that is so delightful to most authors. of
seeing her first contribution to litera-
tiirc i'll print. The account of her cn-
trance upon the vocation of an author
css is full of interest. For some wears.
it seems. she had aspired to this voca-
ton. II happened that her brother
james, who was going TO leave home
for college, percciving that she was far
from happy, advised her to turn her at
tcntion to some fresh pursuit which
would distract and engage her mind,
and suggested writing for the press.
The very next morning, before six
O'Clock, she was at her desk composing
an article on "Fcmalc Writers on Prac-
tical Divinity"-a ponderous theme for
q girl ofninctccn-which, when finish
ed, she sent to small Unitarian peri
odical, called the Monthly Repository
Keeping her design secret from tho
family, she carried the article to the
post office, and awaited with palpitating
heart the arrival Of the next number OF
the Repository. 1t came Just before
service OH Sunday morning; and when
she turned the sheet her heart "thumped
prodigiousiy" OH seeing her article on
the page. In the evening her eldest
brother, by chance, read the article
aloud in his family circle, where Harriet
was taking tea, praising it as he read.
When he had ended it. he turned to her
and said:
Harriet, what is the matter with
you? never knew you so slow ia
praise anything before"
She replied in utter confusion:
Il never could battle anybody. The
truth is, the paper is mine."
He made no reply, read ON in silence,
and spoke no more about it till she was
on her feet to go away. He then laid
his hand on her shoulder and said
gravcly:
"Now. dear. leave il to other women
to make shirts and darn stockings: and
do you devote yourself to this"
II went home," she says, '.in sorl
of dream, so that the squares of the
pavement seemed TO float before my
eyes. That evening made me an au.

Our New President.

This is what 'Pcrley," the wcll-known
Washington observer and correspon-
dent, says of Mr.. Hayes in letter to the
Boston Journal a faw days since:
president Hayes impresses those
who have carefully scrutinizcd his Off
cial acts and private department
since he was inaugurated as chief mag
istrate, as courteous, Christian gen
tleman, who is master of the situation,
whatever that situation may be. Posi-
tive, although not obstinate in his own
opinions, he does not allow either his
sympathies or his antipathies to master
him; and while he never dcnounces
those of his own political partey who
are endeavoring to organize opposition
to his administration, he is ever ready
to avail himself of the aid of his politi-
cal opponents in carrying ont those
plans which he believes are calculated
to secure peace and to stimulate pros.
perity. Those who come here and visit
the White House agree that the presi.
dent possesses that indescribable pow
er known as 'personal influence. A" yct
there is nothing sentimental about him.
neither does he manifest enthusiasm
which is based on cradulity and don't
amount to much.
sit is already clearly manifest herea-
bouts that the moral and political stand
ara OF the administration is being
eleyated. The well known ''ring" of
political cormorants which encircled
President Grant-in which the church.
the army, the stable, the express office
and the real estate trade were reprcscn-
ted-have found that they cannot plas-
ter the present incumbent of the White
lionse with the ointment of greedy
sycophancy, and have discontinued
their operations.
president Hayes evidently does not
believe that the chief end of the general
government is TO aid in the perpetuation
Of the Republican party, and TO reward
those who have served as lis .whip-
pers-in," or who have contributed from
their ill-gotten wealth to its military
chest. II is his ambition to be sue
ccssinl administrator, rather than n
candidate for reelection in 1890, and
his cabinet are seconding him by max
ing good appointments. II the South
ern people are not utterly lost to all
sense. Of honor and gratitude, we are to
have IA new era, such as Lincoln and
Sumner used 10 predict. II is an ex-
pertinent, yet, il Is an experiment
that President Hayes has thought il right
TO try, and if il is a failure he will he

To Temperance Women ::

10 Temperance Women.
DEAR FRIENDs-I desire to saw a few
words 10 you on the subject of temper
ance work here. 1t langushes. Why2
Is 1t because we are thoroughly tenn
perance people, therefore no need of eff
fort, and there il no liquor 10 tempt our
youth! Is il because our laws are all
sufficient so that we may repose witt.
confidence in the security of their
might! Temperance people of New
YORK state admire and praise our H.
quor law and wish there was such All
ono to rule their state. But here Is a
question for philosophers TO ponder
what avails q just law if il is not cnforc-
el, and what avails legislation if there
is none to execute!
1t appears that the temperance work
of the country is TO be done by the wo-
men of the country. 1t is fitting thai i,
should be so.
OF the hundreds of intelligent women
of Inns town how few consider temper
ance work worth an hour each month.
That is the time that is required Of you,
Twelve hours year TO attend the meet
ing: of the w. c. I. L. Latterly, in
addition to this, there has been o pray
or meeting started so that ladies inter
ested in temperance reform may meet
and spend one hour each month In seek
ing divine guidance and help. Chris
tian women, you will make an effort TO
attend this, will you not!
Great things can be ACCOMPLISHED by
prayer. Results may not be immedi-
ately apparent, but let us not doub,
that the day will come when King Alco-
hol will be dcthroned. Even now he
cannot sit in public places with his
courtiers about his feet; he skulks away
into cellars and attics like felon, afraid
to meet the light of day, and il is only
in stolen and hurried movements that
his dcyotees can gather around him.
He is despoiled of his tinsel and his
gliding and he is sinking slowly but
surely iii public opinion.
Ladies, we can triumph over him en-
tircly if we will. Do not sit in your
pleasant homes and ask what good is
being done. Come to the temperance
meeting, dear friends, it will do you
good. You will find yourselves interest
ed, and before you arc aware, YOUR de.
sire to lift the fallen and succor the op-
pressed shall help to bring forth results
that will make many glad.
That God will bless YOU, and ss;is,
you to use your divinely given talent
checrfully and effectively, and not fold
1t away in napkin and hide it in the
earth, is the prayer of
n TEMPERANCE WOMAN.

The Church In the Valley.
Br MRS. NELLIE FISHER.

There's moss grown church in the valley,
And ivy climbs over the wall
The tall grass waves o'er the Threshold,
where the silent night dews fall.
The old bell lies there In the turret,
And its musical Ginning is still,
Where twas wont TO make the glad echoes
Through valley and towering hill
Where ls the rosy checked maiden,
And where is the wrinkled dame,
Who every Sabbath morning,
From over the meadows came2
And where is the grey haired sexton,
Who stood on the belfry stair
And rang the old bell in the turret,
Whiie the worshippcrs gathered there?
Go out In the silent churchyard
For there they are all laid low
And there is the white haired preacher,
OF fifty years ago.
And there is the good old deacon,
Who sal by the chancel rail.
And prayed the Lord TO garner the grain,
And burn up the wnyward kale.
There are grand churches up in the city
The city, that rose In q day,
And the old stone church in the valley
Is now but ruin grny;
And the simple village people,
As they pass on the other side,
VIII warn, you In awe.struck whispers,
To give II margin wide.
As you stand in the gathering shadows,
And list TO each sound that you hear.
There's something indefinite stealing,
And fancy Is morbid with fear,
The wind rustles vague through the ivy,
And over the tombstone bare;
And the spirit of buried ages,
Seem keeping you company there.
You look for the white haired preacher,
With text book In his hand;
And the rush of night bird past you,
Seems guest from another land
The bats In the belffy daze you,
And you go with quickencd tread,
And leave the old church In the valley
Alone with its slumbering dead

The LESSON OF A SNEEzE.-As rule,
a sneezc is the warning nature gives
that some part of the body is exposed
to cooler temperature than the other
parts, that the sncczer is .'catching
cold" Next to the warning, what is
the use of snceze? Ii throws open the
pores of the whole body, and induces a
gentle perspiration; in word, it
throws out the cold. A child rarely
sneezes more than twice-perspiration
is readily induced in youth; an old
man, on the contrary, sneezes half a
dozen to dozen times with q loud
"catchogue." II is harder TO set him
perspiring. When one is sitting by an
open window, and finds himself sneez-
ing, nature tells him he is taking cold.
He should get up instantly, walk about,
and take full tumbler of cold water to
keep up the gentle perspiration that the
sneeze set in motion. If he does this,
he will not be telling, an hour after,
that he has a ''eold in his head" or
chest, or lungs.

FOREIGN LIoUoR-VENDERs AND Yor-
ERs.-It is estimated that not less than
1900, 900 foreigners have emigraied to
this country in less than two genera
tions. They furnish, especially the
Germans and Irish, a very large per-
centagc of the liquor-sellers and saloon
keepers of the nation, and are the nu-
cleus Of a very deleterious, anti-tempe-
rance, political influence. There Is en-
couragement in the fact that there is
gradual falling-off in such emigration.
There Were, by the last census, 5000,
900 nativc-born Americans TO '.absorb"
the foreign elements.

A LOVE SToRY.-IIarry Odgcrs, Il
Cornwall, England, miner, fell In love
with an English lass five years ago, and
when She rejected his suit fled to Amer
lea. Two years ago he met with an ac-
cident at tho Delaware mine, Houghton,
Mich, and eventually lost his sight. Ii
was many long months before the news
reached his English home, but when the
tidings came his sweetheart was very
sorry for the man who had told her he
loved her and told her in vain. She
wrote to his friends in Michigan and got
from them the sad story of his misfor-
tunes. She resolved to sail across the
sea and fetch her lover back to Merric
England. A fortnight ago quite lit
tie woman arrived at Houghton and in-
quired the way to the house where the
manned and blind miner was STAYING.
In a few hours they set out together OF,
their long journey to his old home in
Cornwall. This is good world, very
good world, although things go crooked
in il sometimes.

No man engaged in business in this
country makes more fair and generous
offers to those unacquainted with him
than does Daniel L. Beatty, Esq, of
Washington, \. j., and certainly no
man keeps them better. Every instru-
ment he sells, piano or organ, is fully
warranted for six years, and, while he
sells for cash, and thus gives the advan-
tage of the lowest prices, yet no stran-
ger is asked to advance a dollar out of
his own control, until he has seen and
tested the instrument. See his adver-
tisment in this paper, and if You intend
buying an instrument, write to him and
examine his method of doing business.
