4 NARROW EsCAPE-A short time ago, as
tie British iron screw-steamer Knight Temp
lar, bound FOR Bombay, was steaming along
IL the Mediterranean, of the gulf Of Tunis,
about eleven miles from the island of Gallta,
she Suddenly sustained e totally unexpected
shock. A deep rumbling noise was heard
beneath the sea, resembling the sound caHsed
by blowing off water below the surface from
&. boiler. The noise lasted about minute,
and was accompanied by seething mass OF
white foam. Tie steamer was found TO be
Sling rapidly, and the captain at once steered
.or Tie Island of Galita, where the vessel was
run ashore. By diving it was found that ten
.eet Of her keel had been torn out near the
stem, and sixteen feet of the after part of the
keel twisted. The cause OF the disaster Is
supposed TO have been a submarine volcanic
explosion, the ship, while in deep water, be-
il. struck Wy the upheaved rock.

support Your Mechanics.

There is scarce anything which tends
more to help town, than fair and liberal
support afforded to mechanics of every de-
scription. Population is necessary to the
prosperity Of any country; and that popu-
lation being Of an honest and industrious
character, renders prosperity more certain,
uniform, and unvarying. Scarce any place
has ever yet risen to much Importance,
even when possessed of the best CONNER
cial advantages, without due regard to
the encouragement of the mechanical arts.
To an inland town like ours, mechanics are
equally important as elsewhere. They con-
stitute a large and respectable portion Of
society in all countries, but in towns and
villages they are almoet leading constit-
uent part of their growth and population.
To afford ample support to class of cit
izens so highly useful and necessary is GER
tainly the duty Of those engaged in other
pursuits. Some branches of mechanism
are subject to be invaded by the importa-
tion Of similar articles of Foreign produce,
made for sale, and often by their apparent
ly lower rates induce preference over our
own productions. Although regard for
the growth and prosperity Of our village,
should. induce us TO to afford reasonable
support to our mechanics, we should al
1 least give them preference when we are no
losers BY it. A title experience will con.
vince many, that in moat cases it is theil
own interests to do so, Independent of any
other considerations.

OBITUARY..

In memory of MARY I. GOLDMAN, of
Somerset, Ohio, who departed this life
Thursday evening, Feb. 1, 1877, aged %
years, months and days
Whereas, Fl hath pleased an Allwise
Providence to suddenly remove sister Mary
/. Goodman from her labor of love amongst
US, to the rewards of Gospel promise above;
therefore,
RESOLVED, LIST. That in this bereavement
We feel the loss of true and valued friend,
in common with all who knew her; but in
the more intimate relations of the Church
and Sabbath School, we mourn the loss of
a loving worker and faithful and efficient
Sabbath School Teacher. Loving the Ss-
vior, she read his word with delight, and
taught it out of her own mind and heart
Resolved, I'd. To her family, we extend
our heartfelt sympathy; but our offering
is not of sables but of pure white lilies
and immortelles, for
"Death has left on her only the beautiful"
Resolved, 3rd. To her class, who have
nearly all been brought to Christ within a
little over year; we commend the calm,
peaceful shining of her Christian life as
motiye now set on high, for "Mary hath
chosen that good part that shall no. be ta-
ken away from her"
Resolved, 4th. That these resolutions,
as tribute of respect, be presented to the
family ,iand published in the county:papers

A Whining Man.

If there is cowardly trait in human ma
ture more dlsagreeable than any other it is
whining. The man who goes from home
whining and fault-6nding to meet his busi-
ness perplexities; whining because times
are hard, whining because his plans fail,
and, to believe his own surly disposition, is
burden upon his friends and the COM
munity in which he lives. "You can't ex-
pect anything better from people nowaday."
"Oh! you ought to see them administer JUS
tice back East" "This is no place for an
honest man." and SO the croaker goes on
fulfilling his mission of grumbling and
whining year in and year out. Give US
man-and woman, too, for that matter
who have the gift to carry their burdens
without whining. There are no successes
that come to people without labor, thought,
care, privation, and application, reaching
through years. The whining men and wo-
men seem to see nothing in the past, moth
ing to hope for IN the future-always
prophesying misfortune and ruin to the
whole country, and sickness, rheumatism
and ague to every inhabitant. We dread
their coming and welcome their going.
